Well - it's supposed to be... nothing is perfect, though. [a beat] Except for my face! Ahaha.
[her perfect face,,
anyway.]
He'd been banished from the heavens, previously - but he ascended again. He's spent most of his life in the mortal realm, so maybe it's more comfortable for him there.
I hadn't ascended yet, the first time, but I've heard the stories. He first ascended while he was still the crown prince of his kingdom, but not too long after he became a god, his kingdom was facing a crisis. He wanted to go down directly to help, but... gods aren't meant to do that without the permission of the Heavenly Emperor, but he went anyway.

I think it was good of him to try to help! ...but it went pretty badly, and he was banished as a result.

she's wearing so many layers right now, and carrying over two more outfits, which also have... a lot of layers...
she indicates the second one.]
This one might suit you well, actually. What do you think?
no subject
Well, there’s still a lot more to it than I’m used to. [ it’s no toga, that’s for sure. ] You really think I can make something like that work?
[ she doesn’t usually wear such… big… garments. ]
no subject

[ she swings her feet back to the floor and heads over to give it a closer look! ]
Honestly, how do you two put on so many layers every single day? I can’t even be bothered to wear a cloak most days.
no subject
[she smiles and adjusts her hold on the robes so meg can get a better look at the ensemble!]
They're much more comfortable than they look.
no subject
[ greece is a mediterranean environment, what are layers.
...but she’s casually untying her sash anyway. they’ll figure it out. ]
no subject
[it's comfortable! also, she's the god of the winds. if she gets too hot she can summon up a nice, cooling breeze.
they will, in fact, figure it out. the robes have so many layers she'll probably have to help meg into them, but it's fine.]
no subject
[ anyways, the chiton is coming off! and meg picks up one of the layers to get a better look. it is probably not the first layer. ]
Feels nice. But of course you’d have good taste in textiles.
no subject
[she picks it up! it is indeed a softer fabric ... since that's what actually touches the wearer's body.]
no subject
It is soft. I suppose the gods only get the best of the best, right?
no subject
There are a lot of us that would throw a fit if we got anything less. [a beat] But there are some that don't mind, either.
Why, there's one god who left his palace in the heavenly capital to reside in a run-down temple in the mortal realm!
no subject
Why would anyone leave the heavens? Isn't it supposed to be perfect up there, or something?

[ there’s wonderboy, she supposes... but everyone has their flaws. that includes sqx, of course, but meg isn’t going to spoil the fun here! ]
Banished, huh? I didn’t realize that could happen with gods. Whatever he’s done must’ve been pretty serious.
no subject
[meg is very good for her ego.
anyway, more seriously - ]
