I know that adjusting to a new name is a serious undertaking for most people, but the common use of an individual's god name does not seem to be wide spread. Admittedly, my sample size is still relatively small, but most of the other gods I have met thus far have introduced themselves with their mortal names first, and then given their god name second. Is this because many have not yet adjusted to the new name, or are we not supposed to use our god names?

I'm making the adjustment myself, and I think it would be easier if I was a little more informed about what my relationship with my god name is meant to be. I, personally, am perfectly comfortable with dropping my old title in favor of Hermes, but if it's something meant for followers only, I can adjust my expectations accordingly.

[Reading his message is like seeing a piece of herself, somehow, bringing back old memories of how she had to work hard in the music industry. She's not sure how to feel about that.]

you can be blessed by talent by birth, but like a plant that needs water to grow and be nourished, you need to work hard to maintain it. what good is it if there's no passion?

[Okay, he's had enough of what he's comfortable with making public. This is too personal for him.]

For a long time, I thought all I needed to live a fulfilled was to be gainfully employed. That being recognized for my skills was enough.

But because I never had to try, I never really felt anything. I kept looking for a challenge, something to excite me. I thought I found someone I could really test myself on, but...

Lately, I'm not so sure.

i hope you find it, Hermes
whatever it is you need to live a fulfilled life
even the most talented people lack at least one thing

it doesn't have to be a person or a challenge. it can be a new dream

[Sonic immediately regrets it, but he can't take it back. Time to try and disengage from this tactfully]

I shouldn't have said anything. There isn't anything you can do about it, and there's no reason for you care, either. Just forget about it.
