"Hmm yes quite... The weather here some people might find too cold, while others don't really seem to mind. Fortunately a good hot spring is something nearly anyone I've met seems to enjoy a good hot spring. Especially in cooler weather where the warmth of the water is just relaxing and calming. Almost like all your cares just fades away..." Palutena replied as she seemed to just doze off before regathering her concentration on the conversation. When Midna asked how well Palutena adapted to the world, Palutena thought for a moment before answering.


"Well it wasn't too hard. Where I come from the humans had already advanced enough to have technology such as computers and the like. As such it wasn't too hard. Not only that, but the fact that I am a video game character does get some attention. Of which made me feel both a little embarrassed yet more comfortable with the fact that there are people in this world that also admire me. For us characters, especially us 'popular' ones tend to get quite famous. Thankfully some people respect me enough to allow Pit and I to live a relaitively normal life in simple luxury. It also really helps that I can easily pass off as a human with an interesting hair color." Said Palutena with a small giggle.

Midna was actually relaxed with the woman "You are right on that, the humans have adapted nicely with us and know how to respect the characters, sooner or later we will just be more like part of the diversity than the special group, not that it is a bad thing either" she said thinking of how some characters are now in the normal life instead of doing what they were programmed to. "But some characters like you have it easier than others, just look at me"

The twili gestured to herself smiling to show there was no problem "the bluish skin and black patches of thin fur aren´t the most common thing to see, but interestingly enough, when Pit and I sped our way here, no one batted an eye while seeing me, which I´m glad for, in hyrule, the people were scared of everything, and I´m not joking that they would run away from a horde of cuckoos, the variant of this world´s chicken. But back on track" she took a moment to think "What I mean is that I´m surprised how they accept us, and thanks to technology and all"

"I agree. Most humans back where we come from would react differently to us. Quite literally as if they were encountering gods, deities, or famous heroes and celebrities. However in this world, thanks to technology, and the fact that we come from these 'games'. We have been able to adapt more or less into society as most of the normal civilians are fully aware of who we are and what not. For example I am a Goddess of my world. The Goddess of Light. People worshipped me, and whenever I came down to the human world, people would bow before me and call my name in worship. However he things are more peaceful. People clearly know who we are, how we act due to the internet and the games they play. People just tend to get to know us better than we would in our world." Said Palutena as she looked over at Midna.


"It really is amazing at how we managed to adapt though..."

"Exactly, they adapted to us while we adapted to them, but then again, there are some who still want to do what they prefer instead of adapting, be it for the good or the bad" Midna spoke sighing with a smile "There was this guy, I hated him a lot, but he was nice, but he caused a lot of ruckus and got banished, then this big evil spirit possessed him and thus my adventure began to stop them" she then laughed for a moment "Now I found him being the doofus in parks and enjoying playing with others"

Her smile vanished for a second "Then there are those who still want power, I have met some, they try to conquer a world that can´t be conquered, and the good thing is that there are characters working together to stop them. Leaving most of us to adapt to this new world" the former princess relaxed letting her head be the only thing above the water´s surface "I enjoy going around and fighting, but sometimes I think of the future, have a good place, a job, someone to come back to, that stuff." she smiled

"Oh I know how you feel. Back in my world I had to deal with an evil goddess known as Medusa. Just out of nowhere she came and trapped me and most of my guards and knights. Thankfully Pit wasn't captured because he couldn't fly due to his tiny wings. Because he wasn't captured he managed to get three ancient relics that had helped him seal away Medusa for a good long time. Thus in turn saving me. Then Medusa came back with avengence. However she wasn't as bad as Hades. He was just mean, foul, and always had a comeback. In fact Hades had nearly taken my dear Pit away from me... he disappeared inside Hades. I thought I lost Pit for a moment there... but much to my surprise, that little angel was able to fight his way out of Hades. There is a reason why I chose Pit to be the captain of my bodyguard's." Replied Palutena as she stepped up and out of the water, using her powers once again to form a towel around her.

"Anyways I think it's about time I get out of the bath. I don't want my smooth skin to wrinkle now do I?" Palutena said with a chuckle as she began drying herself off. "You can stay in if you wish though. Also it was fun talking with you, and to be honest. I wouldn't mind if you stay here for as long as you wish." Palutena replied with a warm, gentle smile that would make the heart of any man or woman flutter.

The green haired woman´s smile was infectious and Midna followed suit as she used her magic to dry herself off and got her sarong and cloak back on "Might as well get up, you little one has the energy of an army, but I fear that can be quite dangerous in a kitchen" she joked while smoothing her hair and picking the lock on her collar bone to keep the twin tails on place. "I would advise you though, to out some clothing, both for the weather and in the case of an accident" the twili advised to the goddess

Palutena laughed as Midna spoke up.
"If you're worried about Pit, then don't worry. He said he's only going to get dinner started. I'm going to be doing the real cooking and preparing of the food. So no worry there." Palutena replied, reassuring Midna that what's going on in the kitchen is nothing to worry about. "You know sometimes I really do fear of what would happen if Pit did actually try cooking a full meal. I mean not to sound mean or anything, but he's more of a fighter than a chef." Palutena spoke with a giggle as Midna's final bit of advice made Palutena realize that she hadn't decided on what she was going to wear today. "Oh shoot I forgot to pick out an outfit today. I really need to go through all my dresses in my closet to pick which one I should wear... Normally I would use magic, but it just feels better to physicall pick out an outfit you know?" Palutena commented as she in her towel opened the door and carefully stepped out of the Hot Spring and into the main hallway.

However before she could make it to her room she stopped dead in her tracks as she noticed Pit and Julius standing there on the opposite end of the hall just chatting and talking about various things. At first things weren't that bad until Palutena took one quiet step towards her door. At that moment Julius looked up at her, and just as he did Pit turned around to look at Palutena in nothing but a towel as well. For a brief moment there was dead silence as a rather shocked expression with a slight blush came over the old Vampire Hunter's face, while Pit's face became bright red as he began crossing his legs. Palutena's face was also blushing, but not as bad as Pit's...

They just stood there in silence...

Midna would have laughed at the absurdity of the scene, but for the sake of sanity she took a deep breath and took off her cloak to cover the goddess, she wasn´t ashamed of her body and it also didn´t seem to be naked body because of her black patches, it was more like a skin tight suit. Midna slowly pushed the woman to her bedroom as both Julius and Pit were still shocked to the scene "Now I shall request both of you to go to the kitchen and drink the soup on a vase, you will enjoy it and relax from this.. accident." she said and closed the door.

The twili leaned on the door and sighed "Well, not the most common way of meeting everyone, but an.. interesting ice breaker" she spoke while relaxing her mind ("This will be an eventful day") she smiled faintly.

Thankfully before anything had happened Midna acted quickly by covering the goddess with her cloak, pushed her into the Goddess's room, and had advised Julius and Pit to go drink some of the soup that Midna had given Pit in the kitchen. Julius had just let out a strained sigh as he nodded. "Yes. I think it would be wise if we did that. Today has already been a quick day. Come on Pit, let's go have us some soup." Replied the old Vampire Hunter as he grabbed a stunned Pit by the collar. Julius then proceeded to grab a still stunned, and still blushing Pit into the kitchen.

Midna decided to let things move forward and decided to help the green haired goddess who, in her mind was still processing what happened. The twili looked at the room and found what would be the wardrove storage and headed there "Things like that can happen to anyone" she spoke calmly, yet soothingly "But I can tell you one thing, they found your body astonishing so you can take that as a compliment" she smiled at that while picking some robes and clothing ("Hm.. greek style clothes, classic") some of Palutena´s main clothing was the same one but in variants of colors that could be used for different occasions.

"So, what would like to wear?" the twili asked letting the goddess have some sort of formality.
