HADES
I think I know what I want to do with school going forward. I've been mulling it over for months now, you know? Do I want to study something agricultural? No, not really. I don't think I want to turn this thing I'm naturally good at into something boxed in by textbooks. Culinary? I only really enjoy making food for my friends and the people I love the most.

But I think the thing I do want to do, the thing I could maybe do the most good with...is law.

Is that crazy? Me, going through law school?

	I don't think you going to law school is crazy in the slightest. In fact, I love that you're reaching for something outside of what others might expect. You have good instincts (most of the time). If they're telling you law school, I think that's perfect for you. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Excuse me, mister. I have impeccable instincts 100% of the time! Obviously!

But really? It's been [...] hard, I suppose. Figuring out what I want to do here without anyone else's expectations telling me what I ought to be doing. I guess it's just also a little weird having to decide my own path for a change. I want to. I want to back home, too. It's a learning curve.

	95% of the time. Which is actually extremely good for one of the Gods. I understand how hard it can feel trying something so new. If it helps, I'll be here with you every step of the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	96%? And entirely no offense intended but the bar is already so low there. I know you will and I love you so much for it. I know it will be very hard for you, what with me having to eventually wear fierce suits to court all the time and everything. 😏 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	95.5. And no offense taken. It's nearly on the ground. I'm sorry, what was it you were saying? I got lost in my thoughts for a moment. 😏 (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	95.75! Mm, I suppose that's acceptable. I would look pretty great in fierce suits, it's true. [...] I know it's silly, but I kind of wish my mom was here to tell. I don't even know if she'd approve, honestly, but I don't know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Deal, counselor. Well done. It's not silly at all. What do you think about telling her in the form of a letter? I know it's not exactly the same, but it might help? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Not too bad on those negotiating skills, eh? Hm. That's actually not a bad idea? Or maybe even a journal. And then if she ever joins us here, I won't forget everything I wanted to tell her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm quite impressed. That's an even better idea. Hopefully it will help you feel closer to her while you're apart. I have quite a few blank journals available in the library. Or we can go find you a special one. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounds suspiciously like you fishing for a reason to spend money on me, Hades. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suggested the ones from the library first. That's growth. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay, okay, I'll give you that one. As it so happens, though, I haven't spent much of any of my paychecks, so I kind of want to splurge on a new one. This is a very rare opportunity! Seize it! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Seizing it right now. ((ooc: and he'll pop up right next to her shortly after sending the last message.)) (Reply to this) (Parent)
