Deciding to look around their temporary home. They noticed it was quite big. All the bedrooms have their own walk in closets, and the living room is big enough to hold two sofas and a recliner. It was nowhere near the size of their palaces, but it would do for a while. But there was a downside as well, only one bathroom in the apartment.
On the bright side of this though, the bathroom was the size of a bedroom. Holding three sinks for each of them, the toilet and shower was at least separated by its own small room. Although the bathtub was indeed big, it wasn't private, sitting just across the sinks with a big window overlooking the city.
"I guess having to share a bathroom could be worse than this." Zeus said, Hades and Poseidon nodded in agreement.
Walking back into the living room, the big three, now much smaller were stumped at what to do next.
"You guys hungry?" Poseidon asked. Looking into the kitchen, none of them moved an inch. It was almost as if they were served their food every day, oh wait, that's exactly what happened.
Zeus sighed, "I guess I can try. I don't remember it being that difficult." Zeus walked into the kitchen and looked around helplessly.
"You cook?" Hades asked in disbelief.
Zeus turned to him, with his eyebrow raised, "What do you think I did all those years before I rescued you all?"
Both brothers shrugged, in truth they never once were curious as to what Zeus did in his everyday life before tricking their father into throwing them up. They were too caught up in their own problems to think about anything outside of Kronos' stomach.
Zeus rolled his eyes, finding it rather practical of his brothers to never think outside their own realms. Looking in the freezer he found some frozen store-bought steaks. This was familiar territory, he thought, just a few herbs and potatoes. Simple yet delicious, he could totally do this cooking thing. Now he just had to figure out this kitchen thing.
Meanwhile, Hades and Poseidon decided to watch some mortal T.V. After channel flipping, they found something called Shark Week, which instantly caught Poseidon's attention.
"Whoa, mortals have a whole week dedicated towards the most brutal warriors of the ocean! This is amazing, I wonder why nobody has ever told me before." Hades sighed, knowing he would only get whining from Poseidon if he changed it, so put the remote down and watched quietly while Poseidon geeked out on sharks.
After watching one episode, Poseidon found it shocking how much mortals have learned about sharks already. And how less and less mortals seemed afraid of them now. But he did find it endearing how fascinated they were about megalodon, especially how they think it's extinct.
Hades surprisingly enough found the program as somewhat interesting. And maybe his brother's realm wasn't as useless as he had previously thought. However, still not as important as his own.
Zeus came into the living room carrying three plates of steak and potatoes with him. Setting them on the coffee table in front of his brothers.
"Dinner is served." Zeus said while starting to dig into his own food. Hades and Poseidon happily followed suit.
"Zeus, this is great thanks!" Poseidon said in between bites of food.
"I agree, I would have never guessed in my whole life time the King of the gods could cook." Hades light heartedly joked.
Zeus rolled his eyes while his older brothers laughed, "Well it's a good skill to know. But besides that, what are we watching?"
"Oh! It's shark week, did you know mortals dedicated a whole week out of the year to honor and educate about my realm?"
"Shark week, huh? I would think Shrimp week would relate to you more Poseidon." Zeus jabbed.
Hades slightly choked on his food from laughing suddenly. Coughing into his fist he tried to hide his smile. Poseidon blushed again at the mention of his unfortunate form, while Zeus openly laughed at him.
