When sad little pantheons can't fix their own problems, you really have to expect the big shots to look in every once in a while.

[ Burn YO'SELF, gurl. ]

Oggy Who? That's an awful name, what a drag his mom must've been.

[athousandcurses]

You have an excellent point, Lady Aphrodite. The Queens do seem to be the types to bring in useful people.

[GOOD THING THIS ISN'T GRAINNE'S REALM. She might have been steamed.]

Oh, the Celtic god of Love and Poetry. I thought you might know him since you travel in the same circles. It was silly of me, I suppose there's not much mingling between the gods of different lands.

[halfdressed]

Love and poetry? Sounds like a yawn. What does he do, go around simpering his trade? Aha! Nice. Well, the important thing is to always do your best when you're on the bottom rung of the ladder, I suppose. I wouldn't know. [ Meh, other gods. ] I bet he's nothing compared to my Kyewpee.

And hey! I mingle. I met the Norse boys.

[athousandcurses]

Simpering? [Aengus was nice, but...] Well, no, not simpering... but he did kill this one bard who was spreading lies-- ah! Norse? [She makes a face.] Why would you want to mingle with those barbarians?

[halfdressed]

Oh, it was like a Twilight-come-End of the Gods-deal, nothing major. Not now, anyway.

[athousandcurses]

[Grainne's just giving her the most disbelieving look ever.]

[halfdressed]

[ Glancing up, she blinks and rolls her eyes. ]

Talk about having looks as scintillating as your conversational skills. Just to move things along, was there something you wanted?

[athousandcurses]

[Grainne froze, shocked and eyes wide. Was that a dig on her looks, or her expression? She had been considered the most beautiful woman in Eire when she was young, and she hadn't changed that much... or had she?

She takes stock of the situation, and frowns. Either way that has to be it, Aphrodite is just trying to get under her skin.]

I only responded to your questions, Lady Aphrodite.

[Wow, were all the Greek gods this rude?]

I may be a "mortal" but I have been investigating this place, and it is not an easy place to live, be you a man or a god. It would be wise of you to make friends of the others here.

[halfdressed]

[ Sadly, yes, they are. ]

Make friends out of who — people like you? The first thing you did was take a dig at me, then you got all rude and gawping. Don't dredge up that mawkish, plain-faced little "I'm So Innocent" act either when you deny it, that doesn't fly with me.

[athousandcurses]

Whoever is in your court, Lady Aphrodite, though I fear you may encounter worse than I in whichever side you are on. There may even be other gods to befriend.

[Grainne smiles ever so sweetly.]

I will not, as long as you do not either. What is it that they say, an eye for an eye? I only responded in kind. Quite rude referring to my kinsmen as "Celtic hippies," is it not? There is much I do not understand, so not all of my reactions thus far must be out of rudeness, either.

My information is at least accurate, and good advice is free, which is more than what you have offered so far other than your bad manners and insults. Truly, I may have ignored your message except that I am indebted to love, no matter what land it is from.

[halfdressed]

Uh, rude? No, it's way accurate and also? Not my fault you can't take the truth. [ Snorting. ] Plus, you really haven't done much to help your case, there.

[ Have a withering look. ]

Honey, I've been nothing but upfront and honest, whereas your bitchiness needs to take a long hard look in the mirror. No one made you reply, and frankly if you're going to delude yourself that you're being helpful through a veneer of virtuousness while throwing shade at me, I don't have time for you.

[athousandcurses]

Suit yourself. You will ll find I am at least telling you the truth about the war if you check. I wish you well on your journey.

[Shame, Grainne kind of likes the feisty goddess under all the rude.]

[halfdressed]

My "journey" is going to suck hard, but yeah. Thanks.

[ MEH. Rude forever!! ]
