A lunch made in Mictlan

So I got this invite to lunch in the fancy conference room...ya know the one they only use for VIPs and such?  So I got ready, had a nice little dress on and went.  As I walked in though I knew it wasn't gonna be a pleasant lunch cause it was all decked out in architecture and art from the various pantheons...which meant it was for or parents.

Sighing I sat down and changed my dress to jeans and a tank top and waited.  Dr. Lord was there and confirmed my suspicions and sure enough in walks our parents.  Lugh congratulated Liam and did something to/for him that I can only assume was a reward for helping me.  Thor and Dave talked about beer (shocker there right?), Alex managed to insult his father but I think that had more to do with Hephaestus being touchy then Alex actually insulting him.  Dad decided to congratulate me in my head for keeping at my cutting...why he thinks I do it for his benefit I have no idea but whatever.  I still didn't feel like eating so I just toyed with my soup silently and waited for the others...yes I know I acted like a sullen child...back off.

So it turns out this was like a progress report on how things were going.  Thor and Heph thought things were going well, but Nergal thought we should be doing more.  Sun Wukong and Coyote scoffed at him.  Vahram stands up and says we should show them our prowess...like a big battle or something to which Lugh comments it shouldn't be all fighting...and honestly I did not feel like spending my Sunday with these people any longer than I had to.  I channeled Chaos and found the best way to end this quickly was to goad Barry...which isn't hard.  I looked across the table and asked what he though of all this since the rest of our parents are demon spawn...I may have called him a Jesus freak too.

Sure enough he retorted with us being hellspawn and his father being the one true god...you could hear a pin drop.  I was laughing my ass off inside.  Nergal looked ready to kill him right there.  Coyote was amused and Vahram was in shock.  Then Barry pulled his shotgun...aiming at everyone and I goaded him some more so he settled on me.  I got a vision that his left shoulder was weak so when he leveled his gun at me I slammed my palm into it...and he was writhing in pain on the floor.

Dr. Lord explained about the spot to Vahram, Dave acted like his usual over protective self, and I sat back down trying not to smile.  Vahram yelled at his son then told us punishment was our decision.  Dave wanted to pummel him but I think that wound is enough...and now we all know about it.  But Vahram agreed with Dave.  he can go at it with him whenever and will not avenge Barry if he dies.  Stupid men.

As soon as it was over I went straight to my car and headed into town..I need drink, drugs, and dance.

If life is supposed to be ups and downs, I'd love to hit an up swing. kthx?

So I don't know WHY I did it but somehow I managed to spill my guts to Alex and Jahi.  Damn it all.  I mean what is going to happen if it get's back to Alejandro?  Damn. DAMN DAMN DAMN!

I've spent a lot of time working out and reading...at least them I am less likely to reveal any more.  These visions have been a bitch lately.  Channeling Fate like that takes a lot out of me.  And a lot of it is "if this happens you are doooooooooooomed!!!111!!!" kind of things.  Like Dr. Lord's sword.  The next time he pulls it in my presence all hope of winning is lost.  And I found out my dad gave it to him.  Today during his biology class I found out about Dr. Lord's band...and that they are key to our surviving this semester.  Why can't I get a vision of my next boyfriend or something?  Oh wait cause that would be normal for mortals and I'm no longer either of those.

We sent our pets out to search for more bears, hoping to find their home and clues as to who is making them.  I worry for Tepini's safety but our connection means I will know the moment anything happens.

Oh and in class we met a new student.  Liam O'Doherty, a scion like us.  Turns out he is the sports super star from my school ((Hi Fate! >:())  Dr. Lord ran some slides showing us what we can expect in our new life and then gave us a sort of placement test...C-.  UGH!  Not a good start.

After that Jahi and I had Mythology class.  While I did learn some new things it was fun to make fun of the stuff we knew was wrong.  Well I need to get ready to meet with Dr. Lord, I really need to talk to him about this Prophecy stuff.
