"I've known... a lot of people, who've been hurt by that god," Dionysus says, filling the space. "He's a god who likes to take credit for creating wonderful, amazing, beautiful things, and then holds them just out of reach for people. 'No, you can't have this, if you do you're going to be punished forever for it'. And then when people try to get help from him he's -- just silent?" Of course, in Dionysus's universe, this is due to him not even being real in the first place, but there's clearly universes where he is. "Claudius -- he's been so hurt, and he was so incredibly just -- just sad... I want to help him. In whatever way I can, because it's truly not fair what he's been made to suffer through. If that means being his god then that's wonderful, that's the best part of being a god, is getting to help people. But if he decides one day that he just -- y'know, just wants to be a regular friend, then that's great as well. Either way, I want to help him, because I know that I can, and because I know he needs it."
