What the Heroes Think
A/n: This is just a cute "little" story where I'm interviewing each of the heroes in the living room of the dorm about personal things… crushes, work, hobbies… all the good stuff! Please review!
Note: I'm in bold.
Okay let's start off with Jay. He is the leader, after all. Jay, what is the best part about fighting Cronus?
Jay: Okay, if you think there's any good part about fighting a god who's bent on killing you, you have a problem. There are no good things about that.
Touché. Okay then, next question. What are your favourite hobbies?
Jay: I love to sail, and stargazing is another of my favourites.
Who is your favourite teacher?
Jay: I shouldn't answer that… okay, if this is a private conversation, I'll tell you. But you can't breathe a word of this to anyone. Or else I'm toast, okay?
Sure…
Jay: Okay, I have to admit that Persephone is my favourite teacher… I think that biology is pretty interesting.
Does this have anything to do with Theresa being in the same class?
Jay: I refuse to answer that.
Whatever. We all know you like her! Hear that, Theresa? Jay likes you!
Jay: (groaning) Now I'll never be able to face her…
It had to come out some time, bud.
Jay: I'm done here. Thanks for visiting. See ya. (Stalks out of the room, none too happy with me. Whoopsies!)
Bye cutie! Okay, now we'll call in Herry, our big brawny friend. Hey there Herry!
Herry: Haw phthere.
Herry, don't talk with you mouth full. What would Granny say?
Herry: (swallows) Sorry.
Okay, first question. What is your favourite food?
Herry: Chocolate chip cookies, the homemade ones! Oh, also lasagne, ice cream, jujubes, bacon and peanut butter sandwiches, umm… oh yes! Meatloaf, shrimp, pasta…
(Groans) Never mind, Herry. Next question. What's one thing that you want to learn to do this year?
Herry: Get a girlfriend.
I'm sure you'll find someone soon, big guy. Like I mean, what girl wouldn't swoon at the sight of your muscles? Except me, of course… and Theresa… Atlanta… Sybaris… Stephanie… Anyways, on we go. Who do you like to work with the most?
Herry: Atlanta, because she doesn't bother arguing with me. Theresa and Archie are too sarcastic and argumentative, Jay is too bossy, and Neil too busy being in love with himself, and Odie is just too smart. I can't get half of what he's saying most the time. Umm, this is a private conversation, right?
(Smirks) Sure…
Herry: Good. Uhhh, if you're done, can I go now? I smell cookies… see ya! Let's rock slimo!
(He gets up and walks into the kitchen, and I hear Atlanta's growl as he tries to steal her cookies.)
So much for being the easier one to work with. Now… enter Odie!
Odie: Hey there!
Do you ever feel insulted when people laugh at you being the ancestor of Odysseus?
Odie: Sure, but everyone, including me, has learned that it's not the image that makes the hero, it's what's inside.
Very wise words, my friend. No wonder they call you the smart one. Now… what's with you and Calypso?
Odie: (blushes) Well, we keep in touch, and we're still friends, but I don't do long-distance relationships, if you get what I mean.
Sure…
Odie: Don't tell her that, okay? She doesn't know that I don't call us a couple… she's still in that "Odysseus, my love" stage.
Don't worry, I won't tell a soul… (yeah right, what do you think I'm interviewing you for?)
Odie: (looks relieved) Thanks.
So what's your deepest and darkest secret?
Odie: I once got a C on a math quiz. (Starts to cry) It was horrible!
No! Not our Odie! You poor thing! Now, before you go, do you have anything else to tell our readers… er, I mean, me?
Odie: I never did it again, I swear! Never, I tell you! Oh, and I got to Level 9 of my video game, finally.
Bravo for you. See ya later!
Odie: Bye-bye. (walks away)
Now for (checks watch)… coffee break! Hehee, we'll be back later to finish off the interviews with the seven heroes… these are things you won't find anywhere else. This is Becky Sky, for the tabloids' best selling magazine "World's Funniest Heroes", and the TV station, ZEUS 101, signing off!
