[Persephone is kneeling among the flowers in her room. In the center of the mound, there is a hint of yellow plastic, and as Persephone talks, she's burying it. What she's burying? A Spongebob Squarepants doll. They're evilllllll you know.]

I do not understand how things work here. There is no equality, no fairness and no justice. When one person does something, they become an outcast, they become hated and they are reviled. When another does it, they face no consequences. I suppose it is a very human way to behave.

It is funny; I did not expect to like being a human so much. The little ones were better than the grown ones. Tell me stories of your childhoods, mortals. I would be interested in hearing them.

[Private to Coyo]

Are you well?

[Coyolxauhqui semi-understood Persephone's bond with her plants. It wasn't the same thing as Coyolxauhqui and the stars, but it was very close, and she could understand being apart of nature well enough. It was a cruel punishment to have that bond taken away.]

A child? Not here, no. When I was young, yes. [She wasn't born fully-grown like her brother, Coyolxauhqui actually experienced a childhood. Then again, the childhood of a god or goddess was something a little different than their mortal counterparts.

Coyolxauhqui smiled,] You must have been a very sweet child.

I was not a child when I was young. I was a maid but never a child. [Persephone frowned a bit at that, and she looked to her hands for a moment. How much younger they had seemed before she had spent her time in hell.

No one in her family were children, but somehow all of the children that they had with mortals did thing in that normal way. A part of her wondered how the demigods had faired on their quest in her world.

It would be a very long time before she knew for certain if the son of Hermes had been truly bested.]

I was a terror. I am simply glad that Neil Howie was a better parent than he was a mortal.

[There was no real animosity in her tone; she trusted him now. Well, a bit.]

I do not like the world, though. There was an evil thing there I wish to destroy.

[Neil Howie? Well that put a surprised looked on the divinity's face. She hadn't been paying all too much attention during the port, but now she realized she probably should have. Persephone as a little girl, and Neil Howie as some kind of parental figure...

Eventually the thought just put a smile on her face. It was really, really amusing.

She would have asked more about Neil Howie and the port, but then she mentioned something evil. Coyolxauhqui took a slight step back and cocked her head to one side.]

An evil thing?

It is an evil thing. It is a sponge that lives in a pineapple below the sea. It is... a terror.

[Persephone shivered a bit, and then she gestured toward a thicket of plants that were growing tightly over something. She was having it contained there.]

The plants will hold it so that it will not be able to escape. I do not ever want it to escape.

[Coyolxauhqui peered towards where Persephone pointed out of curiosity, stepping away from the other goddess to take a few hesitant steps towards the plants. A sponge that lives in a pineapple below the sea.

It barely made any sense to Coyolxauhqui, but she assumed Persephone would not be frightened without good reason.]

If it escapes, tell me. [She reached out to give her friend a reassuring touch on the arm.] I will destroy it for you.
