"UGHHH" Zeus groaned, while putting some ice on his left forearm…If you could still call it that, that is; it was covered with black and blue bruises, clearly extremely painful, even for a god like him.

Hades shakes his head, smirking at Zeus and all his bruises. He lifted a can of Root Beer to his lips, while reading a letter from Olympus, AKA hate mail from Demeter.

Zeus looked at Hades weirdly before asking him, "Hey, why are you drinking that stuff? It's nothing like god food, it's mere mortal food!"

"Yes…But it still tastes awesome! Here, how about you try some!" Hades said, zapping another can on his desk for Zeus.

"…How about no? I don't get why you like that stuff! It's…It's…IT'S BUBBLY!!" Zeus twitched and flinched as another letter poofed on Hades' desk, next to his left hand, the one that was holding the first letter. And another. And another. And another. And yet, another!

"Hades…What is that?" Zeus asked wearily, slightly afraid of what it might be.

"Bro, you do not want to know." Hades tried to shove it all under his desk, away from Zeus' view.

Zeus twitched yet again. He had a horrible feeling about this, a very, very, very horrible feeling. "Th-th-That's not hate mail, is it?" He asked, afraid of the answer.

"Ah…Well…Yes. Hate mail constructed of very…Colourful vocabulary. Look at me, Zeus! HATE MAIL! HATE! That's not love! That's not like! That's HATE! I feel so…Rebuffed…Rejected…Unwanted…Unloved…HATED! ALL because of you!" Hades hung his head in mock sadness.

"HADES! It was NOT, I repeat, NOT my fault! The girl SAID she wanted to go out, the girl SAID she wanted to explore, well…I just…Gave her permission…How was I to know she would fall in love with some mortal juck?" Zeus yelped as the little speech hurt his cheeks, both of which looked very swollen, and turning an odd brown colour.

"Jock."

"Right. That's what I said." Zeus looked out into the dark world, the Underworld, Hades, his older brother, ruled. Hades raised an eyebrow and took another sip of his Root Beer, but said nothing.

"That girl! What is with her! Going out into the mortal world-"

"You let her." Hades pointed out.

"-and falling in love with some stupid sock-"

"Jock." Hades corrected.

"-running away with him-"

"You DID say she can go wherever she wants." Hades pointed out again.

"-leaving home! What was she thinking! Doesn't she know that it's never good to act on sudden impulses?! That it's stupid and-"

"And what were YOU doing? Saying I…What was it again? Ah yes, 'spirited her away with my black war horses,' just to save your own neck?"

"-and GODDAMIT! WHY does she never listen?! DO NOT EVER act on impulses! That's the stupidest thing someone can do, especially an IMMORTAL! LOOK at these bruises! I mean, SHE doesn't have bruises, DOES SHE?! SHE doesn't have to think before she acts-"

"Now honestly, language!" Hades scolded, taking yet another sip of his Root Beer.

"WHAT WAS SHE THINKING?! I'LL TELL YOU! SHE [WASN'T THINKING! AT ALL! NOTHING! ZIP! ZILCH! NADA! NOTHING! SHE WA-" Hades walked away, letting Zeus rant on and on about his "stupid girl." He went to talk to a more intelligent being, AKA, Cerberus.
