I am sick today so it might take me a long time to get to these.

Oh, I hope you feel better soon!

For kappa:
Batlady and Delightful Jun
Batlady and prepealing Sue
Batlady and Feral Orphan
Batlady and Brilliance
Batlady and Aianon
Sigyn and Mark
Loki and Effulgence Mark
Linya and Sigyn
Mial and Ansharil

Ooh
Teah and Winter
Teah and King James
Teah and pre-van Alice

Ooh oh oh
Teah and Batlady

The Batlady counts as a purple?

She’s a minor enough character (at least in Effulgence), but whenever she appears she’s Kappa, so presumably.

Batlady conversations disqualified because she's an NPC and doesn't exist in my head in enough depth for complex quick dialogues with various Jokers.

Sigyn and Mark
~
Mark: "You're too bloody tall."
Sigyn: "A terrible flaw, it's true."
Mark: "And why are you so... so..."
Sigyn: "Whimsical?"
Mark: "Not that I don't appreciate it."
Sigyn: "I'm a few centuries older than you are."
Mark: "...that might do it, yes."
~

Mial and Ansharil
~
Mial: "No offense, but you sound like just about the worst imaginable kind of dragon."
Ansharil: "None taken."
Mial: "But I'll understand if you don't feel like switching to a more convenient kind."
Ansharil: "I am comfortable the way I am."
Mial: "Yep."
~

Teah and Winter
~
Winter: *wishes he were dead*
Teah: "Holy shit everything is terrible. If I could operate my corporeal form I would hug you."
~

Teah and King James
~
James: *wishes she could find Winter*
Teah: *appears Winter in front of her* "PLEASE HUG HIM HE'S SO LONELY"
James: "... ... ..."
Winter: :(
James: "Someone please explain."
Teah: "I'm a god. I grant prayers."
James: "What kinds of prayers?"
Teah: "Kinds addressed to me that I want to grant."
James: "Fascinating. Tell me more..."
*Narnia acquires a Teah. Winter acquires hugs. All is well.*
~

Teah and Alice
~
Alice: *desires a rain of jellybeans*
Teah: *rains jellybeans upon him*
Alice: "Whoa, magic! What the hell?"
Teah: *explains self*
Alice: "...Why are you like. Exactly the god I would be if I was a god."
Teah: "It is a mystery."

Eala: "Interesting sign. 'Take over the world' can mean a lot of things, potentially."

Shell Bell: "I think there's a variety of them represented, but I haven't met any of my alts myself yet, so I'm going on hearsay."

Eala: "I'm not in the market for advice currently, but I'm interested to hear about the sorts of world takeovers you have heard of and helped advise."

Shell Bell: "Most often people who are seriously capable of taking over the world don't benefit from my advice very much. I've helped with some smaller-scale things, though."

Eala: "I'm also interested in why your alternates have taken over the world and you haven't."

Shell Bell: "I don't have enough stuff to start with yet. That's why I'm selling advice."

Eala: "Reasonable. But you do want to take over your world? Why?"

Shell Bell: "Well, it's being very abominably run right now. The thing that usually upsets people the most is the part where every year two dozen teenagers go on television and have to fight to the death until there's only one winner, but more people actually die other ways."

Eala: "I see. That is very much the sort of thing I don't put up with in my domain - I'm a goddess of prosperity."

Shell Bell: "That must be nice for the people in your domain."

Eala: "Domains can be expanded."

Shell Bell: "How does that work?"

Eala: "If someone were to take one of my holy objects to a new world and leave it lying around somewhere, I could claim all the unclaimed territory nearby. Unfortunately for the situation at hand, this comes with visible changes - my domain's landscape type is grassland, and it shows. I don't think I have the resources to sweep up an entire world faster than its inhabitants could notice and oppose me. But I might be able to establish myself somewhere that was already grassland-like and provide subtle assistance to anyone who visited me there."

Shell Bell: "I live on a beach and I can't safely travel."

Eala: "Difficult. In that case, the best I can do for you might be a blessing or two - I can bestow improvements to endurance, reflexes, distance perception, memory, injury resistance, and the ability to care for plants. And you may have a holy object to carry around in case you find something to do with it or want to speak with me again, if you like."

Shell Bell: "That would be very kind of you."

Eala: *hands over a rock* "And which blessings would you prefer?"

Shell Bell: "Can you tell me more about how they all work, please?"

Eala: "Fairly straightforwardly, I think. Endurance covers your ability to stay awake and active longer without needing as much food or sleep; reflexes covers your reaction time; distance perception is your ability to see and hear clearly over long distances; memory is your ability to remember things accurately and completely; injury resistance means that you will be less easily injured; and the blessing for plants means that plants will tend to become healthier when you interact with them."

Shell Bell: "How many may I have?"

Eala: "Let's say three."

Shell Bell: "Endurance, memory, and injury resistance, please."

Eala: bestows "And I can use my holy object to dispense more blessings to those who touch it."

Shell Bell: *nod nod* "Maybe one day I'll be able to get it someplace where you can start domaining."

Eala: "That would be nice."

Vio: "So, my best friend the prosperity goddess said I should come talk to you. I'm a god too. Forests, friendliness. Want a rock and some blessings?"

Shell Bell: "Yes please!"

Vio: "Luck, strength, senses, speed, resistance to illness, or better healing; pick three."

Shell Bell: "How good's the luck?"

Vio: "Not that great. 'Probably shouldn't gamble against people you like' good, but not 'the dice land right every time' good."

Shell Bell: "Resistance to illness, better healing, and senses, please."

Vio: "There you go. And a holy rock." *hands over rock*

Shell Bell: "Thank you. I'll ask Bar to get me something to set them both in so I can wear them around."

Vio: "Cool, talk to you later, good luck with your crappy world." *wanders off*

---------

Isal: *wanders past, observes sign* "Hey, you're that kid Eala and Vio were talking about, aren't you."

Shell Bell: "Probably. Hello."

Isal: "I'm Isalian, god of excellence. My blessings are for energy level, balance and precision of movement, sensory integration, learning and retention, flow state, and immunity to height sickness. Want them?"

Shell Bell: "Of course. How many can I have?"

Isal: *bestows* "All of 'em. I'm unusually hands-on as gods go; I don't see any point in making myself less available and missing opportunities for my followers and I to help each other."

Shell Bell: "I think that is very sensible of you, not to mention convenient for me!"

Isal: "Why thank you. Here's a pebble for your collection. I encourage you to talk to me anytime you want company, advice, someone to brag about your accomplishments to, or other miscellaneous help."

Shell Bell: *puts pebble on necklace* "I will definitely take you up on that. Maybe if I get enough of these rocks you'll all be able to take over my whole country in one go before the Capitol can do anything about it."

Isal: "We can hope. And I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this yet, but our resource bottleneck is human attention, so the more people you tell about your god friends, the better."

Shell Bell: "I live in a very small town and everyone thinks I'm at least slightly crazy because I insist on leaving bags of shells near any door I expect to go through regularly. Does it work if they think you're stories I'm making up?"

Isal: "I don't know for sure, but I don't see any harm in trying it."

Shell Bell: "I'll do that then."

Isal: "Good luck!"

Shell Bell: ^^

Sigyn: "A lovelier Loki. Never could I have imagined the sight."

Linya: "It's the genetic engineering. Loki? The Norse trickster god?"

Sigyn: "Mortals and your mortal tales. Whatever you may have heard, I swear she did not give birth to that horse."

Linya: "That will be soothing to any vicarious discomfort I would've experienced on reading that particular story."

Sigyn: bows whimsically "Happy to help."

----------


Mark: "What manner of creature are you?"

Loki: "I'm an Asgardian. Loosely, a goddess."

Mark: *snort* "What fun."

Loki: "It has some advantages."

Mark: "Is there a particular reason you look like my sister-in-law with an unprecedented haircut?"

Loki: "I couldn't begin to speculate."

Mark: "I do love a mystery."

Loki: "Do let me know if you solve it."

Mark: "Sure."

Mial has no desire to make the unique green-group uncomfortable with his presence.

Seeing the Shell Bell ones made me realize I would like her with the Empress of Linnip, too.

Also, I might have missed it in cuddling gods, but what exactly does “flow state” mean here? I have a guess but I’m not sure it’s write.

EDIT: Finish the sentence because somehow I submitted this without doing that.

I think it relates to this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_%28psychology%29

It would be cheating if I requested to continue the story of Gods + Shell Bell by requesting her specifically to interact with other deities?
