unpopular opinions

Do you think people are too sensitive? Or that Superman isn't so super? Think cats aren't cute? The Beatles are overrated? Love pineapple on pizza? Maybe you just don't like chips rly. Even the best of us have some controversial opinions. Let people know what a monster you are.

[ Which is to say all that talk goes in one ear and out the other. It's difficult to contextualize what Zagreus is talking about, but he gets some of it. Kind of. ]

Yeah, okay. Sure! That makes sense. I get it.

[ He crosses his arms and nods. The cat on his shoulder tries to catch eyes with Zagreus and slowly shakes her head, before casually going back to licking her paw. ]

[He'll try not to laugh when he spots the cat's reaction, but he does crack a smile and covers it with a hand and a fake cough. Ahem.]

Er, right, good. But don't worry if you don't! It's just nice that we have something in common, even if it's not exactly the same.

Yeah. Right.

You also get that chaos is the best force in the universe and all realities. Most people are all about thinking that order is, and that's what makes them losers.

It's true. Father may keep the Underworld running with his rules and order, but he's just making everyone miserable in the process, including himself.

There's no harm in shaking things up.

Exactly!

[ He snaps his fingers to make a little plush toy of Teekl. Looking it over, he gives it a fond pat on the head before tossing it to Zagreus. ]

I promised you my power, so here you are. In the same way that those Olympians do things. Only little bit more like me. It's chaos, after all.

Chaos gives choices to you. I give just chaos.

[ In short! ] This little beauty just does whatever, even I don't know what it'll do when used. [ Might summon him. Might boost any boon or item. May do nothing. May obliterate everything on the field. Who knows??? Klarion doesn't! ]

[gasp! He catches the plush, and looks absolutely ecstatic.]

It's just like Nyx's Chthonic Companions! I love it. What do I call it? Her?

[Teekl? Mini-Teekl? Something else entirely?]

Of course.

[ Oh, right, a name. ]

It has to be something super great and absolutely one-of-a-kind.

[ Totally. ]

Mini-Teekl.

[ Klarion's OC, do not steal. ]

[Zagreus laughs.] Very well! Mini-Teekl, I promise to take good care of you.

[He hugs the plush. Look, you've made one Underworld prince very happy.]

I know you didn't give me her expecting anything in exchange, but I'd like for you to have this all the same. Contraband, all the way from Mount Olympus. [ta da! He offers Klarion a bottle of ambrosia.]

Well, I expect to one day get ice cream and cake from Charon and Hermes. [ 'Cause Charon's kind of like his nephew? Kind of? Only in all respects, Klarion's much younger but that's by choice!! Being an adult is the worst. It's having to accept reality of situations and bleh. Bleh! ]

But still...! [ And he happily takes the ambrosia! ] They never share this stuff with me on Olympus. [ He's also not allowed there, really. :( Too chaotic for those orderly losers. ] This is the best kind of candy.

[ ............ ]

You're all right, Zagreus!

You'll definitely get it someday! But in the meantime, this is the next best thing, I think.

[Even Chaos won't say no to nectar and ambrosia, amused as they were by the idea of receiving offerings at first. The stuff's just too good to resist.]

And next time you're on Olympus and they're still acting stingy, ask Dionysus for ambrosia. I'm sure he'll give you some, even if no one else will.
