*amasses his lips into a constricted, sardonic line, rereading the letter that was delivered with the seal of his jubilantly forgotten brother. Odious eyes claw apart the brassy signature, it striking a seasoned and hidden wound within, swiftly fulminating the papyrus in his opened palm; he revels in the small pleasure of watching his brother's

*sides splitting with laughter*

oh dear Ares, you silly thing. If that were the case, I would've beaten you up myself a long time ago.

*smiles and fades to black*

[ares_dot_com]

O it is true, and I'm telling Pan.

[hekate_dot_com]

*giggle*

tell him what, that you have fantasies of my beating up poor defenseless forest creatures? They have therapy for that, you know.

[isis_dot_com]

there are much more satisfing ways to bait him, you know.

~idle shrug~

I'm sure we've all much to fear with the appearance of that particular member of your family. Oh, the mental challenges that will ensue...

~rolls her eyes, toe tracing a glyph in the ash on the floor~

maybe it's just that the Fabio look does nothing for me. that, or my attraction to brains?

*amused by her smearing of his brother's ashes, something he's longed to say for some time, he restrains the urge to undo his leathers and offer another sign of disrespect to the charred letter*
Mmh.. unfortunately the majority of the Pantheon and beyond is not in leagues with you.

[isis_dot_com]

Unfortunate for some, perhaps... I rather prefer it this way.

[hekate_dot_com]

in some cultures, biting your tongue is the worst form of insult, for it is to hold back the honest thought in favor of silence. I'm not certain, given that bit, whether or not doing what I think you were tempted to do versus holding back is the worst insult.

Hrm....I wonder if the favor of Zeus can stop hypervelocity slugs.

Shall I take in an order of railguns?

[ares_dot_com]

He's ancient and senile, though I've never been above attacking the deserving when defenseless. Double that order..

[bzarcher]

Yessir.

I'll see if I can get them to throw in a free bonus of Plasma accellerators. We are ordering in bulk, after all.

While his body may be impervious to most mortal means of destruction, I fear tearing through his wit would be as challenging as burning paper. ::glances to the scattered soot on the tiles:: It's barely worth our time. ::looks at Archer, a flicker of mischief playing at the corner of her mouth:: Prepare something for me to review by dusk tomorrow, mediocre sport is still sport.

Hey, Bro!

He comes wandering in, looking around at the place. "Hey, Ary! Seen the little woman anywhere? Like what you've done with the place. It's... you." That doesn't come out sounding like a complement. "Not to everyone's taste, but hey, you've always gone your own way."

*bridles his urge to use profanity*

[ares_dot_com]

*offers a counterfeit smile, inclining his head moderately to maintain the attempted congenial atmosphere. Ignoring the decor comment, he folds his arms neatly before speaking* I have, actually. However, she seemed less than enraptured when hearing of your return.. I wonder why that is..

*Grins, looking cocky*

[hercules_dotcom]

"Wants a chance to look her best, no doubt. Come home late the way I did must have thrown her timing off. Probably getting her hair re-done right now."

*feeling claustrophobic as he is sucked into the canyon that is Hercules' chin, he shakes his head to break the image*
I'm sure your stylist will give her a discount...

[ex_parselmou48]

Just keep reminding yourself that he's mortal. You only have to put up with him for a few more centuries at most.

:D

[hekate_dot_com]

alas, the guy was made rather immortal, courtesy of his completion of the twelve labors. we're sort of stuck with him.

[ex_parselmou48]

That's the most depressing news I've heard all day.

[hekate_dot_com]

or a breath mint.

*coughs* I did not say that.

*vanishes into black mist*
