Eli and Dionysus
Dionysos, God of Debauchery, had to get that choosing an Avatar thing done, didn't he?  Well here was his candidate right here. He appeared right behind him.  "Eli Coyne?"

Eli peers at the god.

"Am I hallucinating again?"

"No, you're not really on anything that fantastic at the moment, so it's a decent enough time to talk. And I'm confident we won't have any cross-pantheon nonsense, so let's get down to it." A bottle of Jaegermeister and a couple of glasses appear out of nowhere, and the god pours. "You've probably heard that the Titans got loose -- 'Our Titan,' not your little mortal club."

"That's the problem really, no money; nothing fantastic to be on," he grumbles. Also, the others don't really Approve of his habits.

"Yeah. I have sort of been paying attention." He watches the drink pouring with interest.

"We have, too, except the usual caveats about direct interference, et cetera, so we each get to choose a sort of mortal mini-me to get it done instead." He hands him a glass. "I'm picking you."

"Gods really do have that odd little caveat don't they." He takes the drink and waves it around.

Then he giggles, he's only halfway sober. "So you're choosing an 'avatar' of another god to be your 'avatar'?"

Sobering a bit Eli says. "You sure you want me? I mean, I kinda suck at it."

"Oh, like yours was using you much," Dionysos says with a dismissive smile. "And you'll do fine. Infusion of power, do some fighting -- I don't think you can actually turn anyone into a dolphin or something, but if you want to try, I don't mind -- and then you're done."

"I'd be an atheist if I could be." He flicks his wings out and gets an amused smile on his face.

"How does it work exactly then? I mean is Aquaman gonna give Cait his powers? And isn't that sorta silly since Aquaman's already a superhero?" Eli and Greek mythology know each other tenuously, at best. "I think Batman got turned into Anubis once. Plasticman tried to give him dog biscuits."

The god chuckles. "Aquaman isn't a god. That's Poseidon. Who did pick Aquaman's little girl, yes, from what I hear. Couldn't really tell you about Anubis. But, back on the subject. Eli Coyne, Avatar of Dionysos for purposes of Titan-stopping. We have a deal?"

Eli wants to ask 'why me', but he doesn't really want to listen to an explanation of why he'd be a good avatar for a god. It'd just depress him. He doesn't want people to depend on him. He doesn't want a god to depend on him, big or little "g".

The mania that infected him a moment before flickers away and he hunches up.

The voice goes from amiable drunk to a bit sterner. "It's not that hard. You say 'yeah,' you suddenly feel the equivalent of divine steroids. The next time your cute-little-mortal Titans and associates want to go beat down the actual Titans, you go along with a lot of extra power behind it. This conversation is /mostly/ a matter of formality and good manners. I'm not really planning to start shopping again."

And Eli flips from mopey to angry, his eyes flashing. "All right. Sure."

Then you can deal with the fact that Eli will fail miserably.

"Great." Dionysos downs his own drink, and whether Eli drinks his or not, there will be quite a rush of various kinds at the infusion of divine energy.

There's a "Whumph!" as Eli topples over, the divine energies being rather rush like.

He stares up but not really seeing anything. "Wow.... that's .... just... wow..."

"Interesting, isn't it? So when your 'Titans' deal with Our Titans, you'll be better equipped. There you go. Good luck."

And he's gone.
