Is that a death demigod thing or a child soldier thing or just a no like touch thing?

It's a me thing.

So all of it and then some. Got it.

[ shrugs a bit. no argument. ]

Hades kids stick to the shadows anyway.

That’s a generalization though, not you specifically. Why? Do you want to stick to the shadows? If so, then that’s fine.

... They're safe. I prefer that.

...that's fair. What do you want them to keep you safe from?

Life? In general? I don't know. They just feel like home.

...

Hey, give me a hand.

[ confused blind blinking ]

With what?

I'm hungry. A hades kid can probably dissect a pomegranate even blind, right?

-- oh. Yeah. That's easy.

[ He relaxes. ]

Put it in my hand and I'll reduce it to seeds for you.

Gimme a sec, I'll grab a bowl too.

-- oh. Yeah, good idea. Otherwise you'll have a mess.

[There are some shuffling sounds and then the slow, steady thump of steps that eventually get closer]

Hands out.

[ he obediently cups his hands together and holds them out. ]

Like this?

[Sets pomegranates in his hands and a bowl in his lap]

Yup.

[ Well there it is. Kevin shifts a bit to get his hands above the bowl and ...

He concentrates. There's a spike of cold in the air - and then the pomegranate skin disintegrates into dust, leaving only seeds spilling down over his hands and into the bowl. ]

[....chuckles quietly]

Well. That did the trick.

[Hands him a couple more]

[ he's a little awkward initially, but once they're situated in his hands - bam. dust.

before long, the bowl is pretty full. ]

Easier than picking them out of the pith.
