video; un: sleep

[verytired]

[ He appears to be...just waking up as he starts the fairly awkward looking video. ]

Oh, boy! Time loops are pretty tiring, huh. I'm usually the one greeting people, but I got a really friendly hello.

I think I fell asleep and missed something important.

Hypnos, checking in, what's there to do around here?

[ Not that he plans on doing those things. ]

Comments

[dayific]

I try to be!

[ Her laugh is as bright as the morning sun, which is horribly on brand for her. ]

You seem like more of the kind of guy who likes to sleep in.

[verytired]

What gave you the hint? Was it the 'sleep' - [ pause ] username.

[ He's a grandpa who doesn't understand technology yet. ]

[dayific]

That was a big clue in the right direction, hah!

[ That's okay if he's an internet grandpa. She's still young in spirit, despite being older than even most other gods, and has a habit of observing humanity's every step forward, so she is able to pick up most new tech pretty easily. ]

Have you had a chance to see any of your new digs yet, outside of your bed?

[verytired]

I'm not really an outside god.

[ Heh - ]

Which is to say no, I didn't. I'll probably find my way out there when I want something to eat.

[dayific]

Ah, I guess that's the difference between us. I am very much an outside god.

[ BUT! It's nice to know there are other deities here! ]

Wait... Are you Hypnos as in the Greek Hypnos??

[verytired]

The one - the only! The one who brings sleep and dreams. The twin of death himself.

Are you a fan of my work? I've never heard of a god named Sunny.

[dayific]

Oh wow, I haven't seen or heard any of you Hellenic gods around in ages! It's nice to meet you!

Sunny's more of a nickname. But it's what I go by these days. It's fitting... being a solar goddess and all.

[verytired]

Solar? Haha - that's great. I've never met a solar goddess.

My mom is Nyx, Night.

[ Tone absolutely suggests he is 100% a mamma's boy. ]

[dayific]

Aww, that's like my sister!

[ A pause. Then an excited gasp. ]

Ohh! Does this make me like your auntie? I've never been anyone's auntie before!

[verytired]

[ He laughs. ]

Maybe. Or we can always go with cousins.

[dayific]

Aww, I was getting kind of excited about being an auntie...

[ But, just like a cloud passing over the sun, her gloomy mood doesn't last. ]

But I'll take cousins! It's nice to meet you, cousin Hypnos!

[verytired]

[ A soft, tired laugh. ]

You, too, cousin Sunny.
