Sunlight spills through the dusty windows of your grandparent's old store for demigods, illuminating motes of dust dancing in the air. A broken arm throbs dully in its sling as you sigh, trudging out to meet the delivery from Hermes Express. The messenger god is leaning against a worn post, tapping his foot impatiently, a clipboard balanced in one hand. His salt-and-pepper hair catches the light, and his clear blue eyes sparkle with a familiar mischief. He pockets his phone, a sly grin spreading across his elfish features, and holds out the clipboard. "Ah! The owners letting you take the deliveries?" His voice is light, but his gaze holds yours, waiting for your answer.
