So it seems a lot of people were worried... I wanted to say I'm ok. Still a bit tired, still a weird headache, but I'm hoping that'll fade in a few days. I'm sorry anyone had to worry, but it's nice to know there are people who will, you know? I'm incredibly blessed, and lucky to have you all.

[Ares] I take back at least half the times I've told you I didn't think you knew which sister I was. Thank you.

[Aphrodite] Thank you. And thank you for making sure he didn't bomb anything. That would have been bad.

[Psyche] Thank you for... everything. Sorry for being so cranky when I was first home. err...crankier than usual...

[Robbie] I understand you were a big help, holding down the fort and protecting Psyche. That's pretty a important job, short stuff. They're not letting me out to play for a day or two, but if you sneak books into my room, we can read...

[Cthulhu and Doctor Steel] Since we've never met, I'm guessing rampant destruction was more of a goal, but still - thank you utilizing it on my behalf.

[Sadako] I'm not sure what you did, but I can't thank you enough. I don't think I realized how much I ached until it was gone. If I can ever repay your kindness, please let me know.

[Dean] We've never met, and I'm sure it's friendship with Cass that had you there - but I'm very grateful you were there. I have been told that I am in fact usually that bossy, but I'm quite sure they're wrong. If you ever figure out the bracelet ting and decide to toss it? I'll happily set it on fire...

[Henn] We've never met, and I'm sorry when I did have a chance, that I wasn't quite myself. You've got an amazing family. Thank you... for both bring there, and supporting them as they were there.

[Soren] I didn't get to thank you properly the other night... and I don't have the words for how grateful I am. I hope you know how much of a friend I consider you, and that I'd always do anything I could for you, but I'm in your debt, and I hope you'd never hesitate to ask.

[Cass] Cass, I'm realizing how many of these people I'm thanking that I don't know and have never met, and they were here because of you. I'm flattered and bewildered and eternally grateful all at once. I kind of want to tell you it was a stupid, reckless thing to do, and you could have gotten hurt. And it was, and you could have. But you weren't, and so I'll save that argument for later. I knew you were the noble sort who'd do anything for his loved ones, and it... it humbles me to know I'm counted in that group. You brought this together. And I will always owe you for that. I can only hope that if the situation were reversed, I'd be able to do the same for you. I want to thank you for being my hero. But mostly for being my friend.


To any purifiers who might be lurking and read this? I offer the following thoughts:
1) I told you I wasn't a mutant.
2) I may be small, but my heart is big, and currently filled with love and adoration for those I care for. Yours? Three sizes too small. Work on that. Learn to love those around you, and this sort of thing won't happen.
3) I'd like my boots back, please.

[Geoff] I'm kinda unable to go out for a few days. Don't suppose you might want to grab a book or three and keep me company?

You owe me nothing, Melpomene. Okay, if you owe me anything, it's a nice coffee lunch together again at some point. I'm just grateful to have you as a friend, and it wasn't just because of you that I went. It was one part frantic worry for a friend, and one part needing to do something right for a change.

I'm glad you're safe. Next time you go out when creeps are around, I'm going to suggest keeping around someone big, scary, and heavily armed. :D

It might not have been just because of me, but I'm the one who benefited, and therefore I get the warm fuzzy feelings. And benevolent as I am? You'd get coffee lunch even without forming Team Cassidy. The point is, if you were not as wonderful as you are, things might have gone differently.

And yeah... karma kinda bit me on that. I had just told a friend I was a bit too insignificant for people to bother me... and I should know better. Saying stuff like that is asking for the boogieman.

Yes, well, I didn't do much at all. I simply got the people that I know that could fight together. I didn't even invite Henn and Soren, they tagged along because they'd rather be there with me than see me home in a pine box. You have your brother to thank for most of it, actually. He was the meat shield behind which I hid.

You're small, but powerful. Like an altoid.

I do know, and I'm glad we got there before they did anything terrible. And how could I ask you for anything more? You inspire me just by being around - not by way of what you are, but by way of who you are.

Also: chocolate. But that's really low on the list. ♥

Eeek. You'll make me blush if you say things like that.

Next time I see you? Chocolate and a hug.

I'm sure you're twice as pretty when you blush, so go for it.

And dancing! Chocolate, hugs, and ABBA!

They were mostly very ignorant. I'm trying to remember that, and not hope they all suffer some terrible ordeal. But whatever you did, I'm thankful.

Speaking as someone who's been smacked around a few times, you're allowed to be bossy when someone's laid down some hurt on you.

I'm having my people check it out. If it ends up not being a tracking ... thing - I'll make sure to let you do the honors.

Yeah... I've a new found respect for anyone who's ever been in a fight. I didn't know punching hurt so much.

Whatever the fated outcome of the thing is, I'd like to know what it was, if that's ok. The burninating would just be an extra bonus. :)

Of course, that's your right. You'll get both, no worries.

We should meet under better circumstances, when we're both feeling better. At the risk of sounding like a jealous girlfriend, any friend of theirs should be a friend of mine.

You're welcome for the help, though mostly it was because I needed to do something, it's the 'an attack on one is an attack on all' kind of thing, and these guys aren't just attacking one, they are attacking all. As evidenced by the fact that they snapped up a godsdamn Muse as well.

That was only the second time I've killed anyone, and the first time I've done it on purpose, somehow I thought that would make the after-effects better, but it kind of made them worse, I've been sleeping since we got home, and throwing up, but that finally stopped sometime yesterday, Cass hasn't let me out of his sight, which I'm both thankful for and frustrated by, I just need a few minutes alone and wow I just kind of unloaded on you, I'm sorry about that.

In conclusion: You're welcome, and when you're better we'll go play minigolf or something.

Oh, I hope there's no jealousy! They're like the little brothers I never had. Except the part where they're both bigger than me, and I do have little brothers (Although no one's really quite like Hermes and Dionysis, really) and I guess actually given my family "like a brother" doesn't actually mean much, so... OK. New Analogy! They're like... no, that doesn't work either. Basically, they were the first mortals I knew who really knew what I was and didn't want anything because of it, or think it really weird. I adore them to pieces, but in completely platonic ways. Even if I do have the occasional urge to pet hair.

So, yes. Meeting would be good.

And I understand a lot of it was the need for action, and I just happened to benefit, but I so rarely get to go all goddess and pretend everything's about me, and I'm doing that now, because I really don't care why people did it, it got me out of something not at all fun. So I'm still thankful, whatever the motivation. And I'm very, very sorry that by doing so, you've got to suffer. I prefer my tragedies on a stage rather than affecting people I like. As for the hovering... Yeah. I've a growly Ares and two pregnant goddesses, so I hear you. Escape route plotting is in full force. Soon as I'm done napping for a week.

Unloading is fine. As is minigolf. :)

You are of course welcome, my dear! The battle was a most enlightening experience, and though I've discovered a few bugs in my killbots' designs the field test was nothing but successful. To see them working with such efficiency and alongside such skilled warriors... Well, it was beautiful, really.

I quite enjoyed myself, and I'm glad indeed that you remain in one piece.

Making the mayhem was extremely entertaining, yes. Yet it was not my only reason for joining together with the rescue party. There were two others:

1. The humans needed to be reminded that, to those such as ourselves, they are no more than ants are to them.
2. Your kind is extraordinarily interesting to me. I did not posit that there was a single reality where your existence would be truth, rather than human delusion. The chances of this occurring are infinitesimal. Thus, interest.

What I am attempting to express here is that your thanks are unnecessary.

I'd hate to argue with someone who helped, but I'm rather fond of humans... Not very ant like. Of course without them, I've no reason to exist... and without some of them, You'd not have been there to help in the first place.

And while you may not think thanks are needed, for me they are. So you're simply stuck with my gratitude. :)
