[… sheepishly smiles at @ElatedDebonair, hand rubbing at the nape of his neck.] Ha, sorry, I tend to go on about the weirdest things.

[Clears his throat.]

[Raises a hand up to greet the blonde boy.]

I’m Damien.

Da… Mas… Cus? [He repeats slowly, his brows furrowed.] Is there anything shorter than that? I’m no good with complicated names.

Dama it is. Alright. [Nods, but it's more to himself than the other.] I’m still unclaimed. You?

/ note to self to change un bc this one is Horrible

[His eyes widen. He’s heard of some demigods being blessed before but hasn’t actually seen one.] Awesome. Do you have some extra powers?

My luck? [Blinks.] It’s alright, I guess. But when I’m around things generally go well.

I’ll hold you to that. I’ve been here for almost a month already.

/ FUKXJD DAMASCUS OH MY GDO

Well… [Finds Damascus’ phrasing weird but doesn’t question it. For now.] Thanks for the vote of confidence.

[Doesn’t really understand what’s happening but waves at the woman who just appeared.]

Nice to meet you…? [Somehow feels like he should bow. He does it. Slightly.]

[Blinks once more. Squints at the pair. And, /oh/, he gets it now.] Ah – I… I’m Damien.

Yes. [Nods.] Thank you. [He doesn’t know how to act in front of a god. He’s sticking with short and sweet.]

… You look like you need some luck and this still works–even if it's short of a leaf [Hands Daria A. Hemingway. a three-leaf clover.]

Are you claimed already? [Has to ask Daria A. Hemingway. the damn question. Is getting kind of antsy he's not yet claimed.]
