moment...just long enough to be sure, this wasn't the Demon Squirrel in a disguise.
"Ah...shoot, I was hoping to find it, before it transforms again...", she said, hovering back down to her feet. She seemed to look around a bit before looking directly at the woman again: "Unless of course you are...no...no wait..."
She might have glanced into her surface level thoughts for a
corner, looking troubled. Seeing her, she flew closer: "Say, did you see some kind of...demon squirrel running around?"

It was late during the evening, a quite night in the city. Still probably not somewhere you'd like to be perfectly alone at, but nothing that really screamed of danger...until suddenly, a green-skinned young woman started flying around the
Pretty sure he doesn’t care for her dating life. Or…her life in general, as long as she stays alive until he can take over…
…but right…he would get a match soon.
She actually felt confident enough to give our her real name...
"Well...I'm kind of an Empath, but...fear is my specialty. Usually I give people something to fear and make them sloppy or chase them away, but...well, I could try and...change your fear into something manageable?"
She takes the hand and shakes it.
"...hero-name is Hummingbird, by the way..."
meet you..."
"Wait...you have problems with...fears?"
She looked surprised. "That...well, it's sorta my specialty...in a way. I mean...I can influence peoples fear in particular..."
She looked at her...and landed properly: "I think...we should start at the beginning. Hi, I'm Humm...
...I'm Aracely. Nice to
"I mean...I haven't really either. I just..."
She shuddered a bit.
"If you can read thoughts and emotions so easily, you...kinda get some of it shoved in your face occasionally...but...I could never really...experience these things before...myself..."
"No, not really..."
She sighed, shaking her head.
"You know...I never really could look at...naked stuff so much...I mean...in normal ways. In other ways I..."
She sighed...
"Oh, like look at more naked things?"
She smiled, floating up a bit: "Hah...you know, I'm kinda jealous..."
She sat down next to her, looking with a questioning look.
"...you're still thinking about them right now...vividly..."
...well, Aracely could read minds...
"But...we're doing that...and you seem to think a lot about them right now, actually..."
She slowly appeared behind her.
"So...are you silently peeking at the Penis and Vagina here? Is that's what we're doing?"
"So...he made you run laps?"
She started floating upside down a bit while talking, trying to imagine this god of Martial Arts with a stopwatch
“Oh, mine yelled at someone trying to poke into my head so loud, it knocked out half a dozen telepaths in the general vicinity. Also he…kinda wants to sacrifice a chunk of humanity, so…yeah, class A jerk…”
“Huh…that really sounds more like a title…like something you say about Bruce Lee or so…”
She tilted her head.
“Well…what did he teach you then?”
in her chances, but was gonna try anyway.
“I…don’t think, this is a good idea…he’s pretty territorial, when anyone tries to play around with my mind, so having another god try something seems like a receptive for Desaster…I just train my powers on my own, until I master them…”
She had a sort of brave smile, as if she didn’t fully believe
"Certainly...I mean..."
Her happy face seemed to get some cracks now.
"...I really hope I can control these powers completely on my own soon, I...don't really want him to become...a thing again...through me."
"...I feel like that wouldn't quite fit the theme, and...I wasn't exactly trained by one myself...wait, were you trained by a god?"
"Oh, it's Huitzilopochtli...a real jerk, actually. I'm not sure Zeus ever went to America, actually...wait, Zeus exists?"
She blinked.
"Ah...right, I guess every kind of god does..."
"Well...I haven't actually joined a group chat of messengers for this, and...as I said, I'm not exactly a messenger...just felt it somewhat fit me as a name. I'm more a reincarnation..."
"Yeah! Like the bird you know? I can fly as well, and I'm quite excitable, but they are also messengers for Mexican gods and...well, I'm not exactly a messenger, but...something like that."
“So…you actually learned about the powers? That’s neat. For me, I kinda…just activated them some day. And…the god they are from is really a big jerk…”

“Oh, I’m Hummingbird! And I heard you are a god, right? Ah, I see you are…and I was wondering, if you are a boy or a girl, but it kinda seems like both? I see…”
…sooner or later it might become apparent that she was just kindly reading his mind…or at least the surface of it…
Maybe I should make my own group…all with Avatars or Messengers form Gods maybe?
Or…would that lead to infighting, because the gods are spiteful?
“Oh, oh…you too? I’m an Avatar as well! Well sorta…more a…reincarnation?”
