"I just wanted to see the mortal who gained the magic of the oracle! I am the goddess of magic, such things intrigue me."

rachel seemed a bit surprised by this and also a little flattered, "oh, me?" she didn't really know what to do, so she tried bowing.

"Zeus was… well Zeus and now there's a demigod wreaking havoc in the mortal world" Eros sighed. "I'm glad you didn't come. There was a big fight and everyone was yelling at one point. Other than that the rest of the day was so incredibly boring."

psyche put an arm around his, "that sounds stressful. do you think we should help this time?" psyche just wanted everything to stop being so chaotic, and it was almost always zeus's fault. "maybe we could give zeus a lesson and self control." she joked.

Selene sighs.

"He really can't keep it in his godsdamned pants, can he? Poseiden may have broken his vow but that doesn't mean that Zeus gets to. . . again. After Thalia, he should have learned his lesson," she grumbles.

hestia shook her head in disappointment, "what he should really do, is learn to clean his own mess." she sighed, compared to everyone else here she hold much power in herself, what could she do about zeus's behavior? he was the king of the gods for olympus sake!

(I can do that, I’ll fill in. Sorry I’m new and I don’t know if I’m allowed to jump in, I did read it all so I have an idea of what I’m doing.)

(well, the former player for persephone kind of disappeared, so i guess if you'd be willing. we also have more open roles if you'd want)

(>sry serenity, clover actually had the cabin kids, but if they're not here i guess i could take them as well.)

(Naw there good)

"How's that, my love?" Eros smiled gently. (Sorry for the short reply. I've been going through a lot this week)

Hecate giggled. "No need to bow. Now that I've met you, I can tell you are worthy of the magic you hold. Maybe when you're older, I'll convince Zeus to offer you immortality. If you'd like, of course."

"oh, i was joking dear. i think we all know that's impossible." she said, and sighed. psyche truly felt bad for the mortals, she knew what it's like to have the gods mess with your life, but their stories rarely turned out as well as hers..

Erebus sweeps around a corner and spots a group of gods and godesses, mainly recognizing Psyche from her role as Eros' wife.

"Greetings."

Her voice was sonorous, a symphony of soft, sultry notes bringing to mind the late hours of a night without moon or hint of starlight, and a slight rasp to remind those that hear her voice that she was Darkness, ancient and powerful.

psyche turned around abruptly, arm still linked with eros's, inadvertently making him turn around as well, "erebus! it feels like forever since we met. what brings you here?" she said, in a bubbly tone, psyche couldn't actually remember how exactly they knew each other. she was just hoping no one bothered to bring it up.

"I wished to see how all of my children and grandchildren. . . and my grandchildren's children. . . are doing. It has been too long since I have seen any of my family, beyond my dearest husband," Erebus replies, though something about the way the word "dearest" twisted as she said it, almost as if she were cursing him, made everyone wonder how they were doing.

she laughed awkwardly, "well, everything's been fine up here, except zeus being zeus, you know?" Her usual light and cheery voice wavered slightly with a tinge of nervousness. it was safe to say erebus intimidated her quite a bit, "say, how are you and your husband anyhow?"

Apollo flashed into existence in a burst of light. "Why are we here again?" he asked. "And why- oh. I'm not wearing pants. Oh well."
