[Open] A whole new world...
Characters: Calypso and you~
Date: 11/2
Location: All over~
Situation: Calypso has just arrived and is learning her way around... And trying not to be too overwhelmed by all the people omg.
Warnings/Rating: No warnings as of yet.
It wasn’t Ogygia. She was thankful for that, at the very least. Another island lost in time, albeit a little different, wasn’t so strange to her. It might be on a turtle’s back, yes. It might be in a civilization that has her positively overwhelmed, sure. But the fact of the matter was, she was off Ogygia by some strange miracle, and had the chance to interact with everyone…. Not only injured heroes that would eventually leave her without a second thought.
Did they ever have a second thought when they returned to their homes? She couldn’t tell, not with her magic being so limited that she could only see the past. Even if they did give her another passing thought, though, it would not change anything. They couldn’t return to her so what did it really matter?
No, here she would have the chance to befriend more than those who would just leave her. She had the chance to live, despite the learning curve she might have. Tugging her shawl closer around her shoulders, Calypso started to weave her way through the market, pausing to look at the offered goods every so often, smiling at those who smiled at her and brightening at every passing comment. It wouldn’t be so bad here, not really. She could find a job, make friends… Do everything that the Gods had denied her back home.
Do what the Gods themselves did, live amongst and near the mortals. A basic right that they denied her thousands of years and continued to deny her. After all, what did it matter that the young Titan girl was still stranded on her island when the Gods, all high and mighty, had problems of their own to deal with? Who would even notice?

And then he shrugged, hopping on his hoverboard. "But whatever. You're right; I better get going now." The hoverboard lifted off the ground and he floated in mid-air for a while before adding, a little teasingly, "And you know, you'll probably make friends quicker if you smile a little more, Miss I'm-too-high-and-mighty-for-cheerfulness."

Too high and mighty to smile? Did he think she enjoyed her pain and suffering??? She would not cry... Those were definitely not tears rolling down her cheeks as her fingers balled into fists. Easier than having to continue to deal with this, she turned on her heel and started storming off in the opposite direction.
