[Filtered - Everyone can see this….. EXCEPT SALEH]

Ladies, and Gentlemen, Cats and kittens.. I’ve got this zany question for you.

[Hermes taps his staff against the palm of his other hand a few times before revealing just what he’d like to know]

Have, any of you spoken to Saleh lately? Nn-- well that wasn’t the question… but this is… Do you know how he swings? [Just to break it down further….] Is he more attracted to males or females?

It’s -- a long story, don’t have the time to explain it.

[Video for Saleh]

[Hermes was a little impatient.. The effects of the arrow already taking its toll. Before the poll is closed, he decides the best course of action is to dress like a woman and test the water. It’s only a little awkward since they’ve never spoken prior to now… but hey, he’s the god of communications right? This should be nothing.]

[With a flip of his long blond/fake tresses he addressed the communicator]

Yoo hoo, Saleh~

Might I have a word with you?

[He batted his ~~fake~~ eyelashes for the camera]

[Yeah, Saleh hasn't gotten around much, especially now with this curse.]

Very well, I'll see you there.

[Heading to the item shop now.]

[That would make it difficult. Nasty little trick Hades played on ya there.

Hermes, used that superior speed of his to arrive at the item shop nice and early. He'd nearly lost the wig in transit, but luckily had clamped a hand down on it to hold it in place. This was just too nutty. Falling for some guy... randomly like this? It wasn't exactly the norm on Mount Olympus either...]

["She" tried to strike an alluring pose.. but nixed it. That might be a little toooo forward to start with...]

[Ah, Saleh wouldn't have thought much of the alluring pose. He's kind of clueless when it comes to flirting.]

[He arrives at the item shop with a casual pace, recognizing the person from his communicator. So now the "woman" gets to see him up close.]

Here we are. What exactly did you need?

[Oh, you are going to make this so difficult for "her"]

[Wow, he looks even better in person! "She" studied his features and almost forgot to respond.]

You! [Real smooth, babe. Cough] I need you to tell me all about this place- maybe over dinner? [Under a low lamplight, it would not only set the right mood but help mask more of his own features]

[Well, he's ever the gentleman. Since "she" is just a new arrival, "she" probably would be hungry.]

All right. Follow me.

[And he'll start leading the way to the same restaurant where he had lunch with Dante when he first arrived.]

[Now we're talking!]

Sure thing, babe!

[Hermes followed along behind him, wondering just how to win his heart <3. When they get to the restaurant, he's going to try and sir close to Saleh~]

This sure is a quaint little bistro.

[This could prove to be difficult.]

Yes...please, have a seat.

[He kindly gestures to the chair and waits for "her" to sit.]

[Hermes does take a seat.. and waits for Saleh to join her.]

Well aren't you such a gentleman. They are right about you.

[Saleh takes a seat as well.]

Who...exactly? If you don't mind my asking, how did you learn about me so quickly?

[He's just curious is all. Nothing to be suspicious about.]

[Hermes held onto the chair and flapped the wings on his sandles to casually scoot his chair RIGHT next to Saleh. Much better]

Oh you know, babe, word travels fast over the communicators.

[Or something like that. He tried to wave it off as he introduced himself]

I already know your name, but perhaps you'd like to know mine? [More eyelash batting] I'm Herm- [es?! I can't say that! That's a guys name.. ] Hermione!

[Yeah, the closeness makes him a little uncomfortable, seeing as they're supposed to be eating. Instead of saying anything, the sage pulls back slightly.]

Ah...yes...it's good to meet you...

[Relax, cat. I don't bite... but you couldn't know that]

Nice to meet you too babe. Has anyone ever told you... you have such striking eyes?

I...no...no one's ever told me that...

But...thank you...

[All this flattery, and he just doesn't know how to respond...]

[Saleh seemed pretty shy.. which was very endearing~]

Well it's the truth, doll~!

["she" looked down at the menu but didn't seem too interested in it, she was far more interested in her companion]

[This is getting a little awkward for him. At least the menu provided a good distraction.]

Let's see...I think I'll have some of their stew. How about you?

[Undoubtedly]

Hmm, do they carry any ambrosia? [A quick look to Saleh. Mortals right. Then "she" looked back to the menu] Probably not.

I'll have the stew as well.

[After placing their orders for them, Saleh goes back to the original topic.]

So...you said you wanted to learn about this world. What exactly did you want to know?
