It would seem this email is the basis of an advanced network designed solely to entice gods of varying myths and legends. I can never recall any time when I would be considered a god, though I hesitate to assume the system is mistaken. Am I meant to be Hades? Satan? Thanatos? I have heard a dozen names for similar figures, yet none seem to fit. Still, I cannot discount my own abilities. I am clearly not an ordinary man.

Tell me, then: who am I meant to be?

Because of who I am. Trust me. It's better for all of us if I can't get my hands on most of humanity.

It'll come back to you. It always does. At least you don't have too many really fucking stupid stories to remember.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

I believe the same might be said of myself if what you say is true.

How long did it take for you to remember?

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

Good point but I like to think we can change. A couple millenia should inspire character growth, right?

Not long to remember. Longer to accept.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

I should not be so fond of death?

Why hesitate to accept such an illustrious mantle?

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

That's up to you.

Because it seemed a little crazy and I had paper proving I wasn't. You know how it goes.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

I do.

Thank you for being a leader in a capacity that it sounds was not available to you at the time.

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

Right. You're welcome. I think. Anything else I can do to help?

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

Any advice on what to do with my normal life as I start to remember?

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

If you like your normal life, you can keep it. Remembering what you were and are doesn't have to fuck that up if you can keep it all under control.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

And if I fail to keep it under control?

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

Then you have a couple of options. Quit and move to the middle of bumblefuck. Quit and become a raving lunatic serial killer. Focus harder on your job and become a damn workaholic. I mostly recommend options one and three, myself.

If you need to talk, well, Aphrodite is out your way and Hephaestus is an honest-to-God headshrinker now and he's out your way, too. They can help. Or you can talk to me but I'm not much of an Oprah type.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

I do not believe I would need a therapist. Should I have need, I will talk to you. Thank you.

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

You're welcome. You know where to find me.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

Perhaps I can visit and try the.. middle of nowhere approach for myself.

[It's almost said with some amusement.]

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

The door's open. Just let me know before you head out since the cabin can be tricky to get to.

[unbiaseddeath.insanejournal.com]

Thank you.

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

No problem. Keep your nose clean, kid.
