Q&A:

You sounded quite used to Achilles' behavior, how long have you been a part of Colossus?

Awh, jeez, I can't think of the exact number'a years, definitely for a good while, though. Nowhere near as long as Perseus or Bemus, Achilles' been around for a long time too.

Do you like playing at your home stadium or do you like traveling to other stadiums? If it's the latter, what's your favorite stadium you've travelled to?

Actually, I like playing at Olympii. The connection I have with the Gods feels stronger, and I'm much closer to my mom's farm.

Is your mom supportive of your soccer career?

She's the reason I got into the Super League in the first place. When I told her I wanted to get more serious about soccer, she sold a lot of the farm to get me tickets so I could fly out and attend Coach Nick's tryouts. She really didn't have to, but I'm thankful for all she's done. I try to visit her whenever I can, and give her tickets when she's not too busy with work. If anyone ever wants to get some real fresh oranges & grapes, or try some fantastic orange cake, definitely go to Karpo Farm.

Sorry, this isn't exactly related to you, but do you think Perseus would be interested in an interview as well?

Our captain? Nah, probably not, sorry. He's always busy training, or he's hangin' out with 'some other guys', but I dunno who those 'other guys' are. I'll let him know you wanna speak with him, though. (Demetrius was promptly thanked for this.)

If you'd like, we could find a way to promote your mom's farm! We run ads on our website. It might take some time, but we wouldn't mind helping!

Really? That's real sweet of you, thanks!

How do you prepare for a game?

By eating well and training hard! A good diet is everything, and you won't be able to train on an empty stomach.

And what do you do after a game?

I like to go home and bake. I'm not as good as my mom, but we used to bake together in the evenings when I still lived with her. It's very relaxing. If I have enough leftovers, I bring some over for the guys.
