This is one of the stranger message boards I've seen. I'm not quite sure what it's all about. All I know was I was getting the shit spammed out of me, and getting on here seems to have made it stop. I don't know who signed me up for this, but I hope they didn't sign me up for any others. I'd hate to have to change over emails because of too much spam, I've had my current email for a long time now.

I'm in the Greek pantheon. My other name is Erato. But my sister and I are very close to the men of the Egyptian pantheon. I'm hoping that will be true for you as well.

Oh. I can't say I know much theology other than what's related to the Egyptian pantheon. Man, this all really is real, isn't it? I guess I'll have to study up.

Thanks.

So all this really is real?

[identity profile] roseredheart.insanejournal.com 2013-03-30 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, it's very real.

And, I'm a Muse. My domains are lyric love poetry and mimic imitation.

A muse, so that means you inspire people?

That's... part of it. Zeus fathered us with the intention that we would enhance and record the collective experiences of gods and humans alike. To help capture events and emotions both. To invoke one of us was to say that whatever was being created was something important--something worth marking for the ages.

So what kinds of things did Erato help inspire?

Porn.

My name is invoked in the Argonautica, the Rhadine, at the start of Book 7 of the Aeneid, and gets mentioned in Plato's Phaedrus. I'm... not specifically invoked, but I do tend to be associated with the works of Sappho as well.

Guess I'll have to do some reading.

Books are wonderful things. And I'm sure Bes would be happy to teach you a little about us. We're together, he and I.

We did. Actually, there are multiple couples that first met here. Most of us hadn't seen any of the others in thousands of years before we came together here.

That's so weird to think of it that way. But that's how it is, isn't it? The dreams... they're not even dreams. They're memories.

Are all the dreams like that?

[identity profile] roseredheart.insanejournal.com 2013-03-31 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
It's a mix, really. Sometimes, they are just dreams. But a lot of them are memories.

[identity profile] measureofasoul.insanejournal.com 2013-04-01 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
I think I've had dreams of a lot of memories, only I never knew that's what they were.

They'll make sense soon. If I can help you figure them out, I'll certainly try. We're friends here.
