Asteria
Asteria, goddess of the stars, was fascinated by these mortals and the devices they had to view the stars. She was currently at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii. She was looking through the telescope after having chased off the mortals.

	“That’s quite alright but I enjoy being by myself, my relatives could be quite annoying,” Asteria said, “But when this night is over I shall go back to my stars again.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Then we won't get in your way, Asteria. My girlfriend really likes the stars, too. She wants to study them when she's older. She gets the same look in her that you do when she's stargazing." Jai says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Softly, though perhaps not so softly that the titian can't hear, Eli says, "Stars are where the bad things came from." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	“Bad things do not come from stars though they can foretell of such things,” Asteria said turning her head away from the telescope with inhuman speed. Her eye shone like the twinkling of starlight. Then she addressed Jai directly, “For that young one you have my sympathy.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jai looked a bit taken aback by Asteria's sudden interest in him. He really hoped that Eli hadn't just said something to piss her off. "What do you mean by that?" he asks cautiously. He doesn't want to offend her, but he suddenly doesn't like that look in her eye at all. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"She saw something bad in the stars." Duh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	For a moment she thought of just asking them to leave like they had said but they were fighting off her less pleasant relatives. “You will suffer lose great than any you have ever known,” Asteria said before adding something she thought would be a little more pleasant, “But known this Gemini born under Virgo at least your love is not crossed by the stars.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jai stood there in shock. What did she mean? What would he lose? Or who? "Asteria, please. Can you tell me more? What will I lose? Or who? Please say you don't mean my parents, or Iris." Jai pleads. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eli just sort of giggles and says. "Give her a kiss. I'm sure she'll want to talk more after that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dc_titansofmyth 2010-10-16 03:59 am UTC (link)
	Asteria moved back to look through the telescope. “Knowing would not change the outcome,” she said considering very much making the other one extremely sober. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dareyoutorun 2010-10-16 04:35 am UTC (link)
	"Okay, I don't believe that's true, Asteria. I could /do/ something if I had more information. Anything you could tell me would help. Please." he pleads again. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eli's thinking about those Greek tragedies right now. Things about people killing their fathers and marrying their mothers. He tugs lightly on Jai's arm. "You know, unless you want to be doing some all weird incest thing, I'd leave it go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dc_titansofmyth 2010-10-19 01:58 am UTC (link)
	“All I’ve say is this then I would like you to leave so I can look at my beautiful stars like you said,” Asteria said looking through the telescope, “You should do all the things you show all of them how much you care for them.” Then to the other one. “You should not drink and do drugs so much.” (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

No.

No.

Someone he loved was going to die. He couldn't let that happen.

"Thank you, Asteria. I'm not going to let anyone I love get hurt. Eli, let's go." Jai says.

"We'll get the people to leave her alone tonight and see where else we can help. Then I'm going to make sure Traya, Iris and my parents are all okay." Jai says, wanting to run to all of them right this second, but knowing he can't.

He has to keep his word to Asteria first.

	Eli would feel sorry for Jai, but everyone he knew and love died already. In horrible painful ways. Though perhaps evaporation isn't so painful. He just gives Jai a dull-eyed look and a flick of his wings. "Yeah, sure. Nuke em all from orbit," he mutters. (Reply to this)(Parent)
