Date: May 9th

[The feed opens up with Oscar chilling out by the lake on his temple grounds. Even over video, it's clear the poor boy is feeling a bit awkward right now.]

So...I've been here for a few months now. And I'm somehow getting more people who want to follow Lugh--that's me, I guess--but I don't really know what I'm doing to make them want to do that. I'm just...answering a few prayers here and there? Is that really all it takes to be a god in this world? There's not anything else to it?

[He sighs, a little frustrated.]

I guess what I'm asking is how do you be a god, here?

[Oscar's pretty sure where his mind first goes is...not what Nanako is talking about because Ozpin, but he gets the point either way.]

I guess. But...I dunno, I always thought gods were supposed to do amazing things and perform miracles.

I mean, sometimes I guess we can help with those, too. [ She tips her head to the side, looking thoughtful. ] But isn't that doing things they can't by themselves anyway? That's what most people pray for - just some help. Not amazing things. To them, getting help with something they can't do themselves or think is impossible is a miracle, isn't it?

[...why does Oscar the six year old is somehow the smartest person in Heaven?]

I guess, yeah. It's just...it's weird, y'know? I'm not even outta school yet and here I am. Being a god.

[ Wow, she's seven now. ]

I'm still in school, too! Being a god's kinda scary, huh?

[Close enough?]

...yeah, it is. What if I screw up?

[Ugh, flashbacks to the Ozpin thing...]

[ Rude.

But she understands what he's worried about. ]

It's okay, Oscar. Everyone makes mistakes. Even the grown-up gods! You just have to try your best. You can learn how to do it better if you keep trying!
