So, from the moment the woman had appeared Gideon knew she was bad news. That was obvious right from the start. His impression of her only continued to worsen as she began to speak. He fought to keep his expression level and calm because, whoo buddy, this was a lot of crazy to deal with this late into the night. And sure, Gideon had met some weirdos in his day and the speckled fae was certainly not the strangest, but just because her screws were not quite as loose as some others did not mean she wasn't a homicidal maniac. That was yet to be determined. This 'will of the gods' thing was kind of concerning as well. Apparently she was a goddess, and apparently he was some sort of spirit in her eyes. Gideon had never been terribly spiritual himself, so while he did not exactly believe her, he decided to take her opinion as the expert's on the matter and not question. That also seemed the best option where keeping his blood inside his body was concerned. She introduced herself as a descendant of a god, and as Skia Abraxas. "Er, Gideon Eden," he mumbled out of reflex. Well, at least he wasn't one of the mortal swine. "And before, I hardly meant to imply that you were one of those unusual things, to clarify," he added in hastily, hoping he might improve her mood. "Only that we're surrounded by mutated carrion. It seems far more unusual in comparison." This woman definitely had a short fuse and was almost certainly insane, which combined meant she was probably rather well suited to ripping him to piece. Best to tread lightly... |
