Percy is so very sorry

[mightypen]

So uh… funny thing. You guys remember how I can do that water stuff? Well, okay maybe some of you don’t know because I’ve been gone since forever and have some memory problems.

[Again.]

So hi newbies, I’m Percy. I’m mostly harmless and like blue things and can breathe underwater… among other things.

Anyway, I’m gonna apologize in advance for whatever shenanigans my dad’s side of the family puts us through. They’re not all that bad, really, they’re just…. well, they’re gods. They don’t really get humans all that well.

Blah blah blah, my dad’s Poseidon and that might either really help us here or turn out terribly for me depending. I can help you guys with cover stories if you end up having to use your powers or whatever out in public, demigods aren’t exactly a new thing and if you say you’re one most folks probably won’t be too upset if you break something.

Try not to break things though, it’s not nice.

I can give folks pointers on do's and don't's of ancient Greek society too, though it's mostly "don't claim to be something you're not" and in this case... "Assume everyone might be a god in disguise, even the animals because Zeus is a bit odd sometimes" and don't take sides if asked to judge something.

Uh... I guess folks can also check in here?

That's... not what pocket universe means. You're talking about a perception filter. Or maybe a misdirection circuit. But since you're talking about people's perceptions, most likely the first.

We just call it The Mist, some people can manipulate it.

Olympus, where the gods live, is the pocket universe dimension thing. Like liminal space, but it makes more sense most of the time.

[The Doctor chuckles.]

Doesn't take much to make more sense than what I've seen of liminal space.

[But he's not going to go into all that he now understands of it. Simply because it's too hard for him to 'dumb down' to the masses.]
