awake in the middle of the night

[oudeis]

For once, I'll spare you and everyone else the tl;dr and simply say:

Yep. I've still got it.

[curseofdisbelief]

Conqueror, conqueror. What prizes seek you now?

[oudeis]

You're the one who knows the future. You tell me.

[curseofdisbelief]

Fall of a victor, wanders a hero. No love for the Earthshaker. Gone, gone, fair Troy. Claim some other soul.

[oudeis]

Just as eloquent as always, my dear. I have no idea what you're talking about.

[curseofdisbelief]

Grecian words, Grecian hands, Grecian minds, Grecian deeds. Falls a king, dies an age, claims a city for love and lust and beauty.

[kouros]

...how do you even say "TL;DR"?

[Yes, he said "tee ell semicolon dee are"]

[oudeis]

Too long; didn't read. I'm told I can be a little long winded, and my mun isn't quite up to the task, I'm afraid.

[kouros]

No, I know what it means, but how do you say that abbreviation?

[oudeis]

One doesn't "say" the abbreviation. Only teenaged girls do that. I'll be sure to be more clear in the future.

[owleyed]

I hadn't been aware this was a subject up for debate.

[oudeis]

The discussion was less that I'd lost anything and more an unflattering definition of the word "it."

However, I'm in a good mood tonight. I feel like I could defeat a cyclops hand-to-hand. Thankfully, there are none around. I wouldn't want to cause anyone any more trouble just yet.

[owleyed]

Odysseus, your name is the very definition of trouble.

[oudeis]

I heard a quote the other day that I found rather fitting: "We aim to misbehave." I like that guy.

I'm very glad to see you along for the ride.

[liesforlyres]

Pity, I've always wanted to see a teal deer.

[oudeis]

Look. If I can keep up with the modern speak, and I've been dead, then you lordly gods should be with the current times. Especially the sharp-witted ones such as yourself.

[liesforlyres]

And now who's the one taking everything so seriously? A guy can't even get a pun in around here without being snapped at.

[oudeis]

Oh, I wouldn't dare snap at you. The ways of modern abbreviations seem to be causing a little stir in the more eloquent of your brothers. I was just making sure you were following.

Because, you know, teal deer are more the wine god's territory.

[wasneverasked]

You have nothing.

[oudeis]

You have "nothing" confused with "many things." However, your confusion is understandable.

[wasneverasked]

Understandable. Is that what you think of my feelings, Odysseus?

[oudeis]

I think I would have seen the birth of my son if not for you. Regardless of the reason you left, I don't think much of your feelings.

Please forgive my being blunt.

[gloryneverdies]

Are they just letting any old jackass out of Hades now?

[oudeis]

Apparently. How about that.

[gloryneverdies]

I'm a little surprised you didn't claw your way out sooner. Took you long enough.

[oudeis]

I was here before, but I was delaying a while to give my dear mun some space to work out some issues. Contrary to popular belief, I'm a nice guy like that.

What's an old soldier like you doing nowadays? Last time I saw you, you had an arrow in your foot.
