The Gods Discuss Romance
Disclaimer: I do not own the gods, or Percy Jackson & the Olympians. :)
Aphrodite got up from her chair, holding a list. Her black hair shone as the sunlight from the window beamed off of it, and her cherry red dress that went down to her heels went along perfectly with it.
"Well, I called you all here to address an issue," she started off. "About the half-bloods."
"What about 'em?" Dionysus said drunkenly. Next to him, Hephaestus slapped him lightly on the head. The love goddess smiled.
"Well, as you know, due to the modern effect of teenagers falling in love, we must discuss something: camp romances!" she spoke, and she, Demeter, Hera, and Artemis made affectionate noises. Hermes rolled his eyes, and Zeus pounded his bolt.
"I'll read off this list and you can tell me if we need to execute the following couples. First off, Chris Rodriguez and Clarisse La Rue."
"They're perfect," Hermes said, "Anyone of my children and another will go good together."
Ares had a different opinion. "Messenger dudes and my genuine fighting machines are no match. Break them apart."
"Hey, I think they're perfectly fine!" Poseidon protested.
"SHUT UP, BARNACLE BEARD!" the war-god yelled back.
"SILENCE!" Zeus pounded the bolt. "It is my decision on who dates who. I am your supreme ruler. No one comes against me, but I can come against all of you!"
"SHUT UP!" Ares yelled. Athena motioned for him to be quiet.
"I think they are good together. But Chris might be out of the loop from the Kronos battle."
Athena spoke up. "They're compatible. Their names both start with "C".
"Okay, do we all agree that we don't need to break them up?" Aphrodite finished.
"Yes."
"Okay, next up, Silena and Beckendorf." She made a face at the latter.
Hephaestus noticed. "HEY! MY SONS ARE WAAAAAAAAAAAAY BETTER THAN YOUR DAUGHTERS!"
"Be quiet, husband," she told him, but he rolled his eyes.
"I think they're fine. They might make good kids, two opposite personalities." said Athena. Demeter and Hera nodded.
"Okay, I guess they're fine," said Aphrodite, and looked at the next name.
"Thalia and Luke."
"WHAT IN HADES? THEY AREN'T EVEN TOGETHER!" Zeus yelled, and pounded the bolt.
"Brother!" Poseidon complained.
"Okay, whatever," Aphrodite crossed the name out.
"Next up, Annabeth and Percy." She smiled at the two names.
"They're TERRIBLE!" Athena almost got out of her seat. "Perseus is the lazy, dumb, intellectually retarded offspring of the earth-shaker." she said. Everyone laughed but Zeus and Poseidon.
"MY KID IS INTELLECTUALLY RETARDED?" he protested.
"Very. Their kids would be HIDEOUS!"
"No, they would be beautiful!" Hera corrected.
Athena glared. "Poseidon, he was in eight different schools in his life. And to you, that's not intellectually retarded?"
"B****!" he yelled. Everyone gasped.
"A**HOLE!" she replied. They both got up out of their chairs and onto the floor. Both were wrestling, when a sudden surprise bursted in the doors.
"WHAT HAPPENED?" there were two teenagers, both in their pajamas.
"PERCY!" Poseidon yelled.
"ANNABETH!" Athena exclaimed. Both ran to their children.
"Mom!" Annabeth squirmed.
"Dad!" Percy tried to wiggle out of his dad's grip.
Both escaped, and started making out on the floor.
"How sweet!" Aphrodite said. "Perfect." she declared.
The End :)
