Hey, guys! Remember how I was having those dreams and they weren't in any book? And how you all were doing your best to help me figure it all out? Well, all of those dreams started to be about monkeys. Then everything started to be about monkeys.

My dad is going to just completely die of resignation and laughter over this one. Trust me.

I'm Hanuman.

Wasn't exactly expecting to have an email follow me everywhere. But I started having déjà vu episodes to go with it. Those episodes turned into memories not sure I want these, and that was my answer as to whether or not I really wanted to answer this.

My name is Linnaea; Naea for short.

But you guys know me better as Sigyn.

Hey... Has anyone been able to get in touch with Sigyn lately? I can't seem to get a hold of her. Which is really unusual.

Well it's official. I've done my best to stay the hell away from all this. When my internet turned on me, I jury-rigged my type-writer to get my files typed up so I wouldn't have to deal with this crap. Alas my coworkers didn't accept my makeshift papers, so I had to cave and finally access this thing.

My name's Henry Phillips, formerly Hephaestus.

Let's get this over with.

So, uh... I remember just about everything, now. Took a few weeks, and I wanted to be sure before I said much. Just thought folks should know.

Hey everyone... I was thinking... It'd really be nice if we could have all of us together here soon. Sigyn and I were talking, and we thought maybe the upcoming weekend would work. I know travel can be a challenge to those of us not living close by, but it'd be great if we could work something out. I know Carl keeps asking when he can see his uncle and aunties again.

We found it. But, ah, there are some issues. We cannot get inside.

Sigyn, hon? What's your schedule looking like for the next few weeks?

Most persistent spam ever I'm assuming that this isn't for a Viagra support group How the hell do you do this?

Hello. I got tired of deleting the email from my inbox and this seemed to be the only way to get it to stop. I'm not entirely sure what comes next but I hope it doesn't result in more random emails from mysterious sources. Is there a next step to this or am I free to reclaim my internet connection again?

So, I should begin looking for our place. Though I'm not sure where I should start.

Spam blocker, my ass Not entirely sure I should be posting on a message board that an email with the aura of a Hitchcock film surrounding it sent me to, but I'm kind of afraid of what will happen if I don't. wouldn't be the first What is this all about?

[Ganymede had woken up feeling surprisingly comforted by something very soft, very warm, and very fluffy. The floor was cold when his feet had finally touched it, but he eventually adjusted himself to the temperature. It was unusual, but he was okay, and Lethe was okay, curling around his bare ankles and twitching her tail as he ventured out of the room, to try to figure out exactly where he was. Dressed in a slightly oversized t-shirt, and boxer shorts that barely hit him mid-thigh, he carried his kitten with him out into the hallway, and peeked around for anyone else.]

Hallo? [He sounds a little lost.]

"...reports are just coming in that the local branch of pastry-shop franchise Frosted Fancies has been attacked. Canisters of tear gas were thrown into the shop, forcing customers and employees outdoors where an unknown gunman opened fire on the crowd. Two customers were killed at the scene, and seven have been injured, including owner Amber Wheatley-Shin and her assistant...."

Seems all I hear about these days are those Norse apes. Your pictures are all over the place. Hadn't seen the movie yet. Was it any good?

Triton, think you can babysit for a few days? Though, I'm hardly going to give you an option one way or the other. Chelsea thinks she's old enough to date. Daughter of a raging sea god, you think she'd learn. There's no such thing as dating.

Sweetheart? Dying for some sauerkraut. Do me a favor and pick some up while you're out? I'll grill some bratwurst to go with it, but I NEED KRAUT.

[Text to Sigyn]

Hey... You feel up to a barbecue?

[Filter: Norse]

Just think! It's exactly one month until the wedding! I'm so excited.

What all isn't accounted for? We've gotten most of the RSVPs, so the caterer is just waiting for a headcount, I think. My assistants know what to do for the cake--I've got everything for it on a special reserve. All the dresses and suits and everything are taken care of... I'm pretty sure the florist has everything ready except the arrival of the flowers themselves... The sites are reserved, the officiator has us down...

Is there anything we're missing?

[The first thing visible is Tanner's smile, as he's a little too close to the camera, still trying to adjust it as it blinks on. He bites his lip for a moment, looking for the little light indicating that it is indeed on, and once he finds it, he gently settles himself back into his computer chair.]

Hi. [He smiles, shyly. His face overtaken with a hint of pink.] I'm Tanner. You might know me as...[He stops, and worries his lip between his teeth a little, looking decently self conscious by now.] Ganymede.

I've looked through the other posts here and some of them are really-[He stops again, and just shakes his head.] Um. But...I think I kind of get the gist of this place? I'm not sure. [He shrugs.] But I figured I'd make a video post, because I...don't think I'd know how to introduce myself just typing. [There's a bit of a giggle.] It doesn't...carry tone well, you know? And I wanted to be friendly.

So, hi! [He waves, and smiles brightly at the camera, before winking, and cutting the feed.]

Okay, I think I can handle this. I'm a lot more in-control than I was before March.

But, one of the things I used to be able to do is astrology. You know, reading horoscopes and the fates of nations in the stars. This is really, really embarrassing given what I do now.

Anyway, I know who on the Greek pantheon could see the future, but my mythology is weak, and we didn't really go to church either when I was a kid, so I have no clue if any of you are prophets. Maybe, we could try working together.

I should be free to travel, now that the semester's over and I have all my grading done. If all else fails, there's always Skype.

It sounds really silly, but maybe we can find out something that would suggest a solution.

Happy birthday, my lady! Many more to you.

Happy Earth Day, everyone! If the weather permits, I hope you all get a chance to get outside and enjoy nature! ♥
