[Granted, there's exactly one person here who might understand Shinji's choice of user name, and that's a pretty big 'might.' But it wasn't taken, and it's not like the Iwatodai crowd know nothing about Greek mythology. There's just another layer to it.]
So. Money's presumably a thing here, since this isn't a void between worlds where you can just think shit into existence and I don't just have Mitsuru levels of it on hand. (Anyone else who knows Mitsuru: Yes, that much money is exactly as weird as you think it is.)
What do people do for jobs? I can cook and I can hit shit.

[No, wait. Shinji's not studious but he's also not stupid. He can guess why she pulled Greece into this.] Personal connection?
Liminal Space is the last place I was stuck. Tower's one of the... let's go with entities in charge. Or was, anyway. Some other people got pissy about bein' kidnapped and decided to see if they could kill him. (It? Them? Fuck if I know.)
Not a real big leap from 'killed chaos and destruction personified' to 'broke the entire fucking universe in the process.'
no subject
ah
i assumed you were someone else
it wouldn't be the first time a literal god appeared here
[As for his other question, she'd keep the point brief. No reason to disclose anything if he wasn't her Grandfather.
...Especially as someone who clearly knew their Greek mythology.]
my ex was greek
i go by caster here
and you?
you were at another world before this one then
no subject
Name's Shinji.
More like 20. There was world-hopping bullshit involved.
no subject
and not shinji matou i assume?
[Otherwise he probably would have reacted to her calling herself Caster anyway.]
otherwise a pleasure to meet you
20 worlds? thats enough to give anyone a headache
no subject
Let's go with we've met. Probably not whichever version you're thinking of, either. World-hopping shit, long story. [He is so not prepared to explain infiltration yet. Some other time. Maybe never.]
Nah.
[Given she's the one who latched onto Greece so hard, he's wondering why it's Caster and not Castor - but that's her business.]
No shit. Whole thing was couched as a cosmic board game for the prize of redefining the universe.
no subject
we were on good terms
but i imagine a different one in your case
[Interestingly, she had met Castor about the Argo, not that she'd spoken about her companions much.]
redefining or restoring?
here seems fairly set on the idea that we are the people to save this world
laughable though that is
no subject
Definitely redefining.
no subject
right in what sense?
interesting
more flexible than this place then
no subject
Flexible's a good word for it. There were some rules, but people found ways around those all the damn time and I'm not sure how many of them were built for us in the first place.
[Answer: Basically none, since the Arcana didn't know how to account for mortal variables.]
no subject
[Well aside from 'Zeus decides he wants to sleep with a mortal' anyway.]
people will always find a way to break the rules of course
they should have expected as such
no subject
[She was.]

no subject
when the gods intentionally leave a choice like that up to people they are trying to prove a point amongst themselves
especially if it is an outcome they are interested in
