"It's okay. ... I can... imagine. Some of them ah. Can't keep it in their chitons." He scratches his head. "I've never heard of another world that has kind of... ranks? Like mine? I mean there have been mortals turned into gods, or demigods brought up to gods in like... stories and stuff. But I kind of... well."

How to explain... "In my world the gods run on belief, more or less. So the more people believe in you and the cool stuff you do, the stronger you get. It's even to the point where we basically regain energy that we need to do some of our cool stuff when we pull off a crazy stunt where other people can see."
