Hello gals guys and non-binary pals. Today is Hermes. Thank you FestusGirl, my long lost twin, and Imagine Coldplay, my partner in crime and internet cousin, for giving me ideas and prompts because you both are super sweet, kind, lovely, and amazing people along with being just a little bit chaotic and crazy like me. Love you both so much3❤️

Today's facts:

Current statistics suggests that about 1% of the population is asexual, though many experts think that the number may be higher.

Sadly, there are asexuals who feel out of place and broken, due to the lack of general knowledge concerning asexuality and cultural portrayals

There are asexuals who enjoy sexually intimacy with others, while not being sexually attracted to anyone. Every asexual, just like every sexual person, is different and all fall on a wide range of wants and comfort level.

And, that's it for today. Facts are from this link:

Random question of the day: Have you watched Coco? It is amazing and soooooo good. Like, it's a feel-good movie that has phenomenal music along with a good message which is not follow your heart, only partially. The animation is so good though. The colors are so vibrant and there is so much symbolism hidden in it.

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians and all related series, Rick Riordan does.

Today is Hermes, the god of roads, travelers, thieves, pranks, practically everything which is left (which he shares with Apollo). He's a pretty great dad and god. He's also pretty smart and ingenious as well as mischievous.

And today's story is so much fun. For me and you, my readers, but not for the gods. Definitely not for them. *laughs evilly and dramatically while rubbing hands together* the gods won't know what hit them *smirks*

Hermes was searching his room for a certain box in which he kept water balloons. However, he couldn't find it. As he was searching through his junk drawer (which he hadn't opened in a few centuries), he found an old box.

"Huh. Wonder what's in this" he said.

He opened it and inside, there were things he had stolen from various gods as pranks.

There was an arrow he stole from Artemis (he was lucky to have escaped unscathed. Artemis and her hunters are a very scary bunch), a guitar he stole from Apollo (he caused an epidemic in Brazil in his distress), a weapon he stole from Ares' temple (Ares most likely never found out that one of his weapons was fake, he's that hard-headed), a suit he stole from Zeus (Zeus had caused a drought in Sicily), a scythe he stole from Demeter (Demeter had caused a famine in Ireland. Yes, it was the great potato famine), a wine goblet he had stolen from Dionysus (Dionysus turned a few mortals mad), a necklace he had stolen from Hera (he loved doing that. Unfortunately for him, she cursed some random mortals' marriages in her anger. Oops.), a flower crown he had stolen from Persephone (she complained to her mother and then she caused a famine in France), a trident he had stolen from Poseidon (he had started a tsunami in Japan) and a robe that belonged to Hades (he had caused an earthquake in Japan. Poor Japan).

He looked at them and replayed fond memories, which were fond for him and not the other gods, in his head. He then got a brilliant idea. He just needed to find Khione and find his water balloons.

An hour later, he was done with all his work. Now all he needed to find was a water slide…

~§~

Zeus was walking out of his castle after wearing his best pinstriped suit. As he was walking, he put his foot on something slippery, and slipped. What was it, you ask? It was a water slide. Zeus, the king of Olympus and god of sky, had slipped on a water slide that had water on it. Where was he? He was lying on his butt in front of a bunch of Olympians and other minor gods. Some of them had even recorded the video for GodTube! Talk about humiliation.

Then, Hera was hit by something. Multiple of them fell on her and she was soon drenching wet.

"Who dares to throw stuff at me, Hera, Queen of Olympus?!" She thundered.

"Those are water balloons." Artemis deadpanned.

She then looked at Apollo and they shared a look. He then, in turn, looked at Athena, who got a mischievous grin and nodded in understanding. She then winked at Hephaestus who seemed to understand what was going to happen, Then, they looked at Hermes and Dionysus, who had very suspiciously just appeared. They both grinned and the looks they six had on their faces made Zeus very uncomfortable.

"Water balloon fight!" They all screamed in unison after which all Hades broke loose.

~§~

Everyone at once took cover and magically got a bunch of water balloons. Athena, Artemis, Apollo, Dionysus, Hephaestus and Hermes seemed to be on one team while everyone else had to fend for themselves. Saying that it was chaotic was an understatement. About a half hour in, Poseidon joined them and then suddenly, they were the winning team.

About an hour later, Hermes looked at the sky and yelled "Now!". Everyone looked at him in confusion. He then wore winter clothes and everyone (read: everyone except Zeus and Hera because they're almighty and stuff) followed suit.

Less than a moment later, it started snowing.

"Khione!?" Hera screeched. "That D-list goddess?" (She got hit really hard with a bunch of snow and hail for that).

The Surprising Six, as Hermes liked to call them, grinned at each other and not-so-discreetly winked at each other, very obviously were nervous about what they had in mind.

"Snowball fight" they screamed. Again, things took the same course as they did before and for some reason, Zeus and Hera were the victims of nearly all the snow.

~§~

An hour later, everyone was well and truly exhausted and they decided to go back to their palaces. Almost immediately, everyone started to scream with the exception of Hermes, who was laughing.

Lol. Sorry for the late update. I was way too preoccupied reading Quests for Glory and can I say that that book was amazing. Also, I'm glad that Hort is finally happy because I love him so much. He's like a mood (with the exception of his pining for Sophie, of course) and savage.

So, can you guess what each god/goddess had waiting for them in their castle? Also, what did you think of this chapter? Did you like it? Or not? Let me know in a review. Imagine Coldplay and FestusGirl, hope this lives up to your expectations.

This was kind of rushed because I wanted to complete it. Maybe one day I'll make this into a longer one-shot. Should I?

Have a beautiful day and stay safe 3❤️

Love you all
