| Baby meme: Kalypso and Iason |
[16 Jun 2013|09:23pm] |
A. Harmony
B. Virgo
C. A short time after the deaths of most of those they once knew, Kalypso found comfort in a fellow immortal.
D. Predictably, the stuff of statues, with dark hair.
E. 1. Name was actually Harmonia, after the goddess, but she wanted to try and identify more with humans, and started going by Harmony at 8. 2. True photographic memory - she remembers everything she's ever seen or heard in minute detail. 3. Never really understood why, in her early years, her mother was often so sad - until she was old enough to understand more detailed stories of the heroes of Kal's "generation" - and requested to start going to a human school for a while. 4. Has most of the typical Eternal powerset, but aside from her enhanced mind, doesn't use it - she committed to living her "first lifetime" to better understanding humans and other mortal races by living as one of them, and has stuck by it. 5. She is, however, using her mental abilities to help her read and memorize every book she can get her hands on to form a permanent record of human history through literature in all its forms.

A. Theo Stark
B. Scorpio
C. Iason was there for Anya after her drunk driving incident, and their previous flirtations turned from there into more of a relationship.
D. Looks like a young Eternal. Tony insists the kid takes after him.
E. 1. Completely human to all tests, like most offspring of humans and eternals. 2. Spent a lot of weekends with Grandpa Tony and Grandma Natasha, and took after both, helping Grandpa in the lab and taking dancing, then fighting lessons from Grandma. They remain some of his favorite people. 3. His favorite person, however, is Alexander the Great, ever since his twenty page report he did on him. In first grade. 4. Lacking an Eternal's lifespan, has dedicated himself to showing how much impact one can have in improving the world as a hero, a scientist, an inventor and a tactician in one human lifetime. 5. Predictably, he has more than a little bit of ego to go with his aspirations - unfortunately, he also got Grandpa Tony's charm regarding dealing with his own lack of humility.

A. Sigfried Iasonsson
B. Leo
C. They'd worked together a few times over the decades. After Eliza passed, the Asgardian was there, and the pair clicked well.
D. 6'4 and built like a Greek statue, though with pale, Nordic features aside from the dark hair.
E. 1. Grandma Kismet couldn't have been happier than to have a demigod as a grandchild... trying to get rid of her for any length of time was a constant effort. 2. Eidetic memory, even before he could read, he could recite back any of Mommy's stories. 3. Took to training as a skald quickly, and warrior training just as rapidly - falling into the role naturally of being a battle poet, rushing in with the warriors, signing while fighting to inspire people and mock the enemy. 4. Does not seem to have picked up much in the way of Eternal powers, but evidences their influence both in his memory, quick mind, and aptitude for picking up new skills - currently channeled mostly towards swordsmanship, playing every instrument he can get his hands on, and wenching. 5. Treats Solver and the other grandchildren of Thor like cousins, and started writing songs about their achievements when he was six... and still does.

His parents were agreed, one of the few times they talked much any more. Its not that they have anything against one another, their interests just diverged on pretty much everything except for him. Their brief relationship had served its purpose, and individually, anyway, they'd been good parents. But now they'd decided alternating between deep space, and the lightly populated Olympia were limiting his exposure to the realities of the world, so it was decided he would go to Earth and apply to join the Avengers, where his Aunt Sersi could keep an eye on him.
Of course, most parents might be concerned when Sersi is the voice of supervision and restraint, but her kind of trouble wasn't their real worry where he was concerned. Meanwhile, they figured, getting to know his cousin, and from her, perhaps determine where dear old Aunt Sersi was staying these days might be a good thing.
He makes his way to her place, having dressed like a local for the occasion, much as he found Earth clothing restrictive and uncomfortable, and knocked.
