people don't like working with me. because i'm creepy and i don't know. not "nice" because i don't play frisbee and sit around the lake hoping the other kids notice me. whatever
YOU try shadow travelling all over and not need a nap
Here's a tip for taking halfway decent care of yourself: don't shadow travel all over unless you know you have a safe place to sleep and the possibility of a decent meal waiting for you at the other end.
so never?? i have it under control and i don't normally do it that many times in one day! i'm not not shadow travelling because i don't have a foster home
I'm not worried. [ He's worried. ] But if I were inclined to be, I'd have every reason.
Maybe that shouldn't be the case. You should consider not using it as an excuse to expect and allow for the worst without considering the possibility of something better for yourself.
[ Exceptionally easy for him to say, he knows that. But somebody has to make the suggestion. ]
If you wanted. Demigod and accountant don't have to be mutually exclusive here. But I meant you could try expecting to live past your supposed early expiry date.
I'm a sorcerer for a living. Unfortunately I'm not in a position to answer that question in any way that might provide you with useful insight.
But you're living in a town where things go bump in the day as often as they do in the night, and a world where supervillains abduct citizens while they're getting their morning coffee. Shifting city sentiments aside, hiding isn't necessarily anything you need to prioritize if you're careful to match your skills and the inevitable consequences of who you are to your needs and your environment.
Nothing. It was once, a bunch of young adults using the house as a place to go and test their magic. I was supposed to go in and fortify the place to prevent any further use, but things got out of hand before I had the chance and now I live there to keep the house occupied and unavailable for magical vandalism.
And to keep people out of the malevolent dimension in my basement.

why are you worried? you don't know me and - like it's kind of pointless to worry about me. bad things are inevitable
demigods have bad life expectancy

if you're a sorcerer for a living, what does that mean? you drag people here like circe?
no subject
It means I put shielding spells on storefronts and clear out overrun houses for wealthy owners of second homes.
no subject
overrun with what? monsters? do they pay in dollars?

Will-o'-the-Wisp Walk, Sunset Falls. It's contained now, nothing to worry about.

Off limits. If you want more insight you can search up the witness accounts or talk to the locals. It was all over the news.
