[ Some people might feel awed by gaining powers from the fragment of a god. Thanatos is not one of those people. He is a god — the personification of death, to be precise — and he hasn't gained a thing in this place. He has only lost. Never in his long, long existence has he felt so much like a mortal. Words fail to express how distressing it is.
Still, Thanatos is nothing if not pragmatic. He makes the best of it. He discovers his power quickly, and while it pales in comparison to his natural ability, it is at least familiar. In the safehouse, concealed from the prying eyes of non-Displaced, he practices.
So it is that Thanatos teleports from one room to another with no regard for how startling his sudden appearance may be. Here's hoping he doesn't cause anyone to spill their drink! ]
II. DREAMS
[ Welcome to Tartarus. The architecture is a marvel, with stonework that appears to be pulled directly from ancient Greece. (Spoilers: it is.) Despite this, Tartarus is a dim, dreary place that carries an unmistakable aura of misery. This is not a happy afterlife: this is the place that only the most wretched of souls go.
Thanatos stands on a balcony overlooking Tartarus. He is clad in black and gold, and he carries a large scythe. He watches floating, semi-transparent figures far below, his expression inscrutable. ]
You're not supposed to be here.
[ Spoken in a quiet, measured voice without looking at the intruder. ]

What attempts have been made to communicate with the gods?
( ooc: feel free to wildcard something else! recognizing thanatos' name and/or realizing that he's a god is a-okay. )
