video | post murderworld thoughts

[fourstars]

So um... I've been thinking about this for a while. Ever since we left Harrub, actually...

[ He grimaced a bit, pausing for a couple of seconds. Glancing off to the side, before taking a breath, and addressing the camera again. ]

But um, after the whole Murderworld thing... it's kind of become clear that some of us aren't... handling things that well... [ He was thinking about Videl specifically, but the anon meme has also made it clear Videl wasn't the only one. ] I know we all took the oath for various reasons, and we probably all expected different things out of becoming a superhero. But um, some of us probably didn't expect this... so...

... With the whole "Legionnaire Legacies" thing coming around the corner, I think we should... [ Another pause, as he tries to figure out how to phrase this. ] ... um... I guess, share our lives with each other? To make sure we're prepared, in case... in case the news digs up stuff about us, and tries to drag us through the mud with it.

[ This is so weird and strange and against everything Gohan knows. He's usually the most secretive person in the world, but... he's kind of had to cope with having an open identity, so might as well go all in. ]

I guess um, I should go first? My name's Gohan, and... if you have any personal questions for me, I'll be happy to answer them...

i'm so sorry

[turntex]

and he didnt take it wow what a waste
coulda had a god named fuckin percy
granted literally none of my friends have cool names either so i cant really say shit
but can you imagine the religions that might have resulted
the chuch of john egbert
yes hello sir or madam have you welcomed percy into your life yet
amazing
its cool tho i know my greco roman mythology
shits hilarious
did your dad really fuck a swan

thank you i needed that laugh oh god help me

[notthatjason]

You'd have to take that up with him.

I wasn't really planning to get into my dad's sex life. It's...well that.

[turntex]

hey my guardian made snuff porn starring plush puppets
after growing up with that shit kidnapping twinks via eagle to be your boytoys sounds like standard embarassing parent material
like ugh daaaaaaad again with the prettyboy abduction youre ruining my life

not that jason would know what embarrassing parents are...but still

[notthatjason]

That's...disturbing.

It's not like I lived with him. I actually only met him once. So I was thankfully not around for any of that. Even so it's still pretty uncomfortable to talk about. What the gods do in their private time is really something I'd just rather leave up to them.

Either way...I'm pretty sure neither of those things qualifies as "standard embarrassing parent material"

belatedly realizes i mixed up the story of zeus and leda but w/e this is funnier

[turntex]

hey heres a question
if youre dating a daughter of aphrodite doesnt that mean youre hooking up with your niece

it makes it WAY funnier...plus jason was too flustered to notice.

[notthatjason]

If you have a different godly parent then it isn't really seen as weird. Sort of related to your previous statement about Zeus' past. I guess it might seem weird from an outsider perspective, but the godly-side of things...they aren't really working on the same wavelength as mortals. Plus, it can be difficult for someone like me to have a "normal" life, this is honestly the first time I've really interacted with people not related to or involved with the gods in a long time.

[turntex]

well
im also godtier at this point
and i wouldnt really call any of these chucklefucks normal either
so that whole last statement seems kinda negated at this point yknow

[notthatjason]

Normal is a little more subjective than people give it credit for then I guess.

[At least, that's what he thinks Dave is saying.]

What do you mean godtier though?

[turntex]

just the lingo back where i came from
it means you managed to die the right way and basically became a god with all the benefits
partial immortality greater control over ones aspect sweet new duds etc
it almost makes the dying horribly thing ok

[Not really. He'll probably have nightmares about sitting around waiting for his imminent death and burning alive for the rest of his life. But whatever.]

i guess it makes sense with the lore or whatever for the game we were playing
you beat the final boss and win the game you get a shiny new universe
pretty much become gods of said new universe so i guess its appropriate that some of us get actual godlike powers

[notthatjason]

Oh.

I'm not sure if godlike powers are exactly worth death.

And this all happened because of a game?

That's messed up.

[turntex]

glad to hear someone thinks so
yeah it sucks but it was inevitable
at least this way me and my friends got to be the ones that survived earth getting fucked

he's honestly at a loss right now, because how do you even address this ?

[notthatjason]

I guess whatever bright side you can find...

a lot of therapy mostly

[turntex]

i dont even think thats much of a stretch really
i mean yeah it sucks but if the choice is dying and coming back or just straight up dying for good then yeah sure call me mr brightside for going with the former
