Bill's Goddess Adventure
A: Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon Story
Chapter 9
It was Wednesday night, Bill and Sachi were having their stats examined hopefully they went up in some things so they could go into deeper floors.
Both where shirtless, they had their back to each other while they took their shirts off of course. They were laying on the bed, stomach first. Currently Hera had her hands on Sachi's back
"You two look like crap, what were you doing down in those dungeons?" Hera asked
"A lot of fighting." Bill shrugged
"That makes sense..." Hera answered removing the paper from Sachi's back "Here we go, take a look."
"Thank you Lady Hera." Sachi smiled
"Wow... All my stats are up ten points!" She smiled
"That's great." Bill smiled as Hera scanned his back.
Hera was smiling as blushing as she worked, holding back her giggle
"Ready Bill?" Hera asked
"Ready." He smiles
As Hera examined his back and updated his back she sort of blushed when she felt his defining muscles between her fingers.
But as she started to enjoy it, it was finished
'Phooey...' She thought "Here it is."
"Thank you My Lady." Bill took the paper.
And his eyes widened. He was nearly a D in attack and speed! The rest where all E's!
"Whoa...this is amazing." Bill smiled
"I know, you've come a long way." Hera smiled
"That's amazing Bill!" Sachi cheered, her shirt back on
"Looks like my archery and sword skills are increasing my stats quite well." Bill chuckled still examining his sheet.
"Still no skills." He sighs
"You'll get there soon Bill." Hera smiled
"Yeah well...You've got that meeting haven't you Lady Hera?" Bill asked
"Tomorrow." She nodded sadly
"Do you need any moral support?" Sachi asked kindly
"Mortals are not allowed to come." She replied
"Well that sucks..." Sachi frowned
"Makes as much sense as anything..." Bill commented
Sachi nodded, Hera smiling
"Oh by the way, I kinda got this from before you came here Sachi, got it made for guests since there's only one bed...hope it's alright." Bill produced a fur inline sleeping bag with a fixed pillow
"Of course." Hera nodded
"It...it's wonderful! Thank you." Sachi smiled brightly.
Bill smiled, patting her head softly
"It's about time for dinner, what does everyone want?" Bill asked
"What we can afford." She smiled
"You got it." Bill smiled "Want to help out Sachi?" Bill offered
"Okay!" She smiled
'Those two...they're like...a blossoming couple...W-Wait! B-Bill doesn't think that does he?!' Hera thought kindly then snapped back to reality. 'No! No! He said he liked me!'
"Are you alright Lady Hera?" Sachi asked kindly
"I-I'm fine." Hera answered after snapping back to reality.
"You sure?" Bill asked
"Yes!" She nodded
"Well I'm going shopping with Ms Kurumu tomorrow, I better go to sleep. Night." Bill waved, going into his and Hera's bed and falling asleep
"Night Bill..." Sachi smiled
"Good night." Hera added
Hera glared at Sachi lightly; she was worried and angered, she didn't want to share Bill with anyone, even though Sachi seemed like a nice girl...But that's how it starts with men and attractive girls
And then... There was his 'date' with that Kurumu girl!
'H-He said he loves me! He can't be cheating! He CAN'T be cheating!' Hear thought
She closed her eyes, holding back tears 'He can't... He can't...'
"Lady Hera?" Sachi asked in worry
"Lady Hera, are you alright?"
Hera sniffed and tightened her crying and silence.
Sachi frowned and hugged her
"Hmm?" Hera looked up and saw Sachi hugging her like a...'Friend'? Even as a sister?
"What's wrong?" Sachi asked
"I...D-Do you like...Hmm..." Hera mumbled
"Do I like whom; Lady Hera?" Sachi asked
"D-Do you like Bill?" Hera asked in worry.
"Of course I do, Bill is a great friend." She frowned in confusion
"Is...is that all?" Hera asked
"Well... He's kind of like a brother to." Sachi nodded
Hera sniffed lightly and responded "Okay...thank you..."
Sachi nodded, hugging her
'Thank you Sachi...' Hera thought reciprocating the hug.]
*time skip*
Bill and Sachi were resting in their respective beds; Hera was up already and getting breakfast ready.
She smiled at them, and gently whistled as she finished
'Today's the day.' She thought 'The Gods Gathering.'
She was nervous, scared but she was fine.
She knew that she could avoid Zeus easily.
HIS eyes will be focused on other 'assets'.
Of everyone BUT her.
"Well...no time like the present with this..." Hera sighed
"Wake up." She told them, shaking her Familia lightly
"Hmm...Oh...Morning." Bill smiled lightly
"Five more minutes..." Sachi fumbled
"Breakfast, Sachi." Hera smiled, patting her head
"Okay, I'm up!" Sachi bolted upwards
Bill chuckled lightly and followed suit with waking up
"Hello Lady Hera, good morning." He smiled
"Good morning." Hera smiled "Sleep well?"
"Actually...yeah...then I was startled by a horrible nightmare." Bill answered
"Which was?" Hera asked
"Some bloody unicorn interrupted it." Bill answered
"... What?" They both deadpanned
"That's what I thought to." Bill answered
"Just come to dinner." She sighed
"Fair enough." Bill nodded 'Wasn't there a story about a unicorn or something...?' he thought
Hera smiled, putting the plates on the table
"Thank you Lady Hera." Bill smiled
Hera smiled and kissed his cheek lightly
"Y-You two...are together?" Sachi blushed
"Kinda." Bill and Hera answered
"Sorta." Hera shrugged
"Not exactly." He nodded
"It's kinda personal Sachi..." Bill admitted
"Okay." She nodded
"So...what's the plan for you two today?" Hera asked
"Well I'm going shopping with Kurumu." Joel shrugged
"And I am going to learn a new skill...maybe...hopefully." Sachi spoke "Or magic."
"Yeah, magic sounds like a good one to learn." Bill answered "I might also ask around, see if there's anyone who may want to join our familia."
"I don't think that's a good idea." Hera frowned
"Yeah but...No...No you're right Lady Hera." Bill admitted.
"We can't support anymore." Hera sighed
"Yeah...sorry, I got ahead of myself." Bill apologized.
"Just wait a few months." She sighed
"I can wait." Bill answered
"You ever think you're just a little TOO eager Bill?" Sachi asked in worry, seeing as she was the newest member of the familia
"Yeah...Yeah I think you're right." Bill admitted
Hera giggled, smiling
"Well...better eat this then head out. We've got a long day." Bill spoke
"True." Sachi nodded
"You better get a move on then." Hera smiled
"Why don't you eat with us?" Sachi asked
"I have already eaten. I need to leave." She smiled, putting a coat on
"Stay safe Lady Hera." Bill spoke kindly.
"I will." She smiled
As Hera left, Sachi turned to Bill "You care for Lady Hera a lot don't you?"
"I...Yes...Yes I do." Bill nodded
"You do?"
"Yeah...But...she's still technically married to Zeus. She fears him above all things; HE'S going around sleeping with any beautiful woman while she is left alone...No-one should be treated like that." Bill answered
"I agree." She frowned
"Listen Sachi...I-err...I better get ready." Bill spoke almost embarrassed.
"O... Kay?" She asked in confusion before leaving
Bill collected his clothes and was going to head out. "There's some Valis by the counter...I'll...I'll be back later." Bill spoke awkwardly
"Okay?" She nodded, tilting her head in confusion
*time skip*
Bill was heading to the guild hall to see Kurumu, but he saw that she was dressed less formally than she regularly was.
She was wearing a black crop top with a loose white shirt, a loose white shirt over that and jeans with heels. And... No glasses
"Where are your glasses?" He asked
"I'm... Wearing contacts?" She frowned
"Shit we gave contacts?!" He yelled "We have contacts, we can shoot fire from our hands but we don't have escalators or anything?!"
"It's an unusual circumstance..." Kurumu answered
"Understatement of the century..." Bill mumbled
She shrugged and grabbed his arm with her own, dragging him away
"Whoa!" Bill was pulled away.
"Come on." She smiled, giggling softly
"Where're we going?" Bill asked
"Shopping." She half-deadpanned
"Oh yeah." Bill blushed lightly
"Now...where do we go first?" Kurumu asked with a small pout
Bill shrugged, unsure what to say
"How about over here." Kurumu spoke pointing to a large clothing store.
...
'Crap.' Bill thought, being dragged inside 'This is going to be a long day...'
*With Sachi*
Sachi hummed, looking through a book store
'Now...what to look for...Magic or anything else...' she thought
She shrugged, deciding magic might be the best
"Magic for beginners: Elf edition. This looks like a good one." Sachi commented
She nodded with a smile, walking towards the cashier
"That all Ms?" The cashier asked
"Yeah, that's it." Sachi answered
"16,000 Valis." He nodded
"I-Bu-w-wha...?!" Sachi backed up in shock "Six...16,000 VALIS?"
"Do you even know how magic books work? You read them, the writing fades! They are one time things, and you absorb the magic and knowledge! It's expensive stuff!" The man frowned
"I...Just...Give me a minute!" Sachi began to count off the money she had on her person.
It wasn't even close!
"I...I don't have that much..." Sachi answered
"Then I'm sorry, I can't sell you this." the bookshop owner apologized
Sachi sighed, collecting the money
"Bye then..." Sachi sighed
"Sorry for the bombshell." the proprietor spoke.
"It's fine." She nodded, leaving
'What am I gonna do? I said I was gonna learn a new skill but...WHAT can I learn?' Sachi asked thinking in worry
She held back her tears, entering the pub that the Hera Familia had made their regular
"Ah, Sachi. Marcyl table for one...Are you okay?" Alicia asked
"No." She sniffed "I can't help him."
"Can't help him? Marcyl, a pint for Sachi." Alicia ordered lightly
"Yes mum." Marcyl nodded
"Oh, I-I don't-" Sachi spoke as Marcyl gave her a pint of apple juice
"I don't give crying people alcohol; now tell me: whom can't you help?" Alicia asked kindly as they sat down.
"Joel... I can't learn magic to help him! He relies on me and I'm small and weak and slow!" She cried "I can shoot but I waste money!"
"That IS a predicament." Alicia comforted her "But in early adventuring you have to spend money to make it back."
"But I'm wasting money already...we're JUST getting by on our budget NOW." Sachi cried into her drink.
Alicia frowned, patting his back softly
"What am I gonna do...?" Sachi cried
"My oldest might have a few things to help you." Alicia smiled
"Y-Your eldest?" Sachi asked
"Cersei, she's a great adventurer...and I'm not just saying that because she's my daughter." Alicia smiled
"Y-You'd think she'd help me?" Sachi asked
"She's always had a soft spot for elves in trouble." Alicia answered "Plus she likes Bill, she thinks he has potential."
"She 'likes' Bill?" Sachi asked
"In the sense of being a respected adventurer." Alicia answered
"I see." She nodded
'Shame really, I would've liked some grand-children.' Alicia thought "I can try and call her. She might not be in too deep in the dungeon."
"Please." She nodded
"Okay, I'll go get you something to eat as well." Alicia smiled
"Oh...oh no I can't-" Sachi spoke
"No, no. I INSIST. Bill's been a good patron and he's been VERY helpful with Marcyl's book-writing." Alicia answered
"Mum...I don't want EVERYONE to know..." Marcyl blushed
"Book writing?" Sachi asked
"I'm learning to write to keep the books for the pub." Marcyl answered
"She's learning to be a scholar." Alicia commented
"Mum...!" Marcyl mumbled in embarrassment.
"That's amazing!" Sachi smiled
"Well yeah..." Marcyl pouted
Sachi smiled, hugging her
"Ack! I...This feels weird..." Marcyl blushed lightly
"Why?" Sachi asked, breaking the hug
"Besides my sister and mum, no-one's hugged me." Marcyl answered 'Her boobs feel good...'
"Oh okay." Sachi answered
Sachi pulled back, smiling as she waited for her food
"I'll be with you soon..." Marcyl spoke while she still had a small blush.
"Okay." Sachi nodded with a smile, feeling a lot better
*With Bill*
"Are we...almost done yet?" Bill panted
He was dragging several bags in his arms, Kurumu walking in front of him
"Nope! Because we're going to the Hephaestus Familia's tower shop!" She smiled
"BUT THAT PLACE IS CRAZY EXPENSIVE!" He yelled in shock
"I thought you were friends with Lady Hephaestus?" Kurumu answered "Don't you want to give a girl a good time?" She pouted lightly
"Plus I know where they are cheap!" She smiled
"There is?!" Bill snapped
"Yeah, follow me." Kurumu pulled him to the location.
She smiled, arriving at said massive tower
"THAT isn't threatening at all..." Bill gulped
"It's what's on the inside that counts." Kurumu answered
"... Innuendo." He chuckled as they arrived in a lift
"There's a LIFT inside this?" Bill deadpanned
"Magic and technology...can make one thing but not another." Kurumu shrugged.
"But there isn't one in the Dungeon?!" He groaned
"Do YOU want to make a loud machine that scares off the monsters on the upper levels and gets destroyed in the lower levels and CONSTANTLY replace it?" Kurumu debated
"... Fine." Bill sighed
"Down please." Kurumu asked Bill with a smile
"Yes, of course..." Bill groaned lightly
With a defeated sigh he pressed the button
"Going down." the elevator voice spoke
"Oh come ON!" Bill groaned
"What?" She asked
"Auto-voices. Just...Come on." Bill groaned
"Oh hush." Kurumu smiled as they descended to the lower levels and stopped.
"Basement floor." the automated voice spoke again.
Bill's eyes widened as the door opened
"Hera, preserve us..." Bill gasped seeing the vast market of smiths and armourers in this tower basement.
And the prices... Everything seemed so cheap!
"My God...all this stuff...I could buy a house worth of gear and STILL have enough change." Bill commented
"I told you." She smiled
The thrum of the basement called out to the pair selling their wares. It was going to be one HELL of a shopping spree.
"Oh yeah." He smiled
"Swords! Swords and spears! Heavy armour and shields!" a group of dwarves spoke trying to sell their wares
"Bows and arrows!" some elves spoke, not as loud as the dwarves but you could hear them.
"This place is amazing!" He smiled, looking around
"Ah, fine sir! YOU look like a man who's strong, tough and can kill a man with a glare, why don't you peruse my wares?" A dwarf asked "Strong iron armour, for a man of your stature."
"Ah, no thanks. Armour like that would only slow me down." Bill politely declined
"No class..." the dwarf grumbled as the dwarf turned his back on Bill.
Kurumu giggled, grasping his arm
"What about here?" Bill pointed to a small-shop run by a young looking dwarf, the dwarf had iron grey hair and no beard, that was common for their kind, that was braided at the back in an ancient dwarfish style, his eyes were green as malachite; his clothes were leather engraved with dwarvish runes, but his shin and arm-guards were made of iron. His stall was filled with: trinkets engraved with runes, belts that held small knives and even throwing axes
"Welcome to Koin's merchandise, how can I help?" the dwarf asked sounding like he had given up hope on his stall.
"Aw, don't sound so sad. What's wrong?" Kurumu asked
"My stall; no-one wants what I'm selling...and who can blame them? They want items from a DWARF not a child." the man answered
"But aren't YOU a dwarf?" Bill asked
"Course I am...It's just people expect the big beards, heavy armour and big-ass weapons. No-one wants my trinkets." Koin answered sadly
"...What do you have?" Bill asked feeling sorry for him, but was honestly intrigued by the wares.
"Don't waste your time! That stall's going under!" a misanthropic dwarf called out
"Shut up, Krun!" an elf defended Koin's stall
"See? Even my own KIND is right." Koin answered
"What're you selling?" Bill asked again
"Seriously? Well...I err...I've got these: throwing knives, knife belts that range from 5 to 15 slots, trinkets with rune engravings, throwing axes and holsters." Koin listed off
"I'll take at least one of each." Bill smiled "Well... I'll take fifteen knives. Best to be safe."
"No wait! Thirty knives and two belts."
"I...I...*gasp* Yes sir!" Koin backed up in admitted shock, he'd never been asked for THIS much of his stock before; but him being a business dwarf he began to collect the merchandise for his first customer.
"And I think you have a regular. Well... A weakly one." Bill added
"A regular...Thank you." Koin smiled "That'll be...250 Valis please."
"That's cheap." Kurumu gasped in surprise "Even for this floor!"
"Here's 500." He smiled, putting the money on the table
"F-Five hundred! Thank you!" Koin smiled and put it in his money bag.
"See you next week." Bill smiled
"Nice job Koin." the elf spoke kindly
"Thanks Shaz." Koin smiled
"I told you this place was amazing." Kurumu smiled
"What IS this place?" Bill asked
"This is where the newer members of the Hephaestus Familia sell their items." Kurumu explained "As well as some of the greater Hephaestus Familia members reject items. They are still good quality just a lot cheaper."
"Bloody hell...That Koin guy...He's not a bad kid, just needed a jump-start." Bill smiled
"That he is." Kurumu nodded
"How much have I got left?" Bill thought then gave a quick list off "750 Valis, not bad really."
"How about dinner before we go finish?" She smiled
"Okay, Alicia's Bar?" Bill suggested
"Where?" She asked
"It's up top, my treat." Bill smiled
"Okay." she nodded
*With Sachi*
"Thanks for the talk Ms Alicia." Sachi smiled
"No problem." Alicia smiled
"Hey Mum; sorry I'm late, I had to deal with an Iron Drake in the lower floors." Cersei spoke walking in with a plate of bloody metal on her back
"It is fine dear." Alicia smiled
"So...who's the poor girl who needs help?" Cersei asked
"Me...I-I'm the poor girl who needs help." Sachi raised her hand.
"And what's your name? What's wrong?" Cersei asked
"I'm Sachi, I've been hoping to learn a new skill; magic preferably, but the books are expensive." Sachi answered
"Ah...THAT old drama..." Cersei nodded "Yea, I can help." She smiled
"You can? Really?" Sachi beamed happily
"Yeah, yeah I can...Just, ease back with the rainbows will ya? You're blinding me." Cersei joked
"Okay." She nodded, looking down in embarrassment
"Follow me to my room; I'll get you some books. Don't tell anyone." Cersei spoke
"Okay." Sachi nodded
"I won't." She promised
"Oh Cersei..." Alicia called her daughter and then whispered in her ear "I've hidden all of your "magazines"."
"MUM!" Cersei blushed. "Great Elders! Why?!" she snapped
"You shouldn't leave them just lying around. Marcyl could've gotten them; you KNOW how impressionable she is." Alicia debated like a mother
"Yeah but...Fine." Cersei had gotten ridden of her blush "Come on Sachi."
"O-Okay..." Sachi gulped and followed Cersei to her room. "What magazines?" She asked
"None of your business." Cersei snapped
Sachi jumped back, looking down sadly and hurt, before she nodded obediently as she sniffed
As they headed up to her room, Cersei sighed and turned to Sachi "Sorry...I don't like anyone touching my magazines...they're personal."
Sachi just nodded, her now broken and defenceless body language and her lowered head unchanging
"What's wrong now?" Cersei asked
Sachi was silent, staying still
"Are...Are you alright?" Cersei asked
Sachi was silent, but visibly flinched when Cersei reached out to her
"You...want to talk?" Cersei asked
Sachi shook her head there
"Do you want to...learn magic?" Cersei asked
"Okay...I...I've got a Medium and Basic levels of magic that you can have..." Cersei spoke
"Why haven't you used them?" Sachi asked as Cersei gave her several books... Including a magazine that neither noticed that was between two different books
"Magic is not my strong suit...An old friend of mine gave them to me. We parted on...mutual terms." Cersei answered
"What happened?" She asked
"We...had a disagreement. My ex-friend didn't like my thoughts." Cersei answered
Sachi tilted her head in confusion and shrugged
"You better read the Basics first...otherwise you'll hurt yourself." Cersei forewarned her.
"Okay... So if you aren't good at magic are you a brawler?" Sachi asked
"More a..."Thief" class. Great at sneaking around and using traps." Cersei answered
Sachi nodded, gulping softly
"What's your preference?" Cersei asked
"I...I don't have one." Sachi answered holding the books
"Well...it's good to have a mix." Cersei answered
Sachi nodded, hugging the books close to her chest "Th... Thank you." She nodded
"No...No problem..." Cersei answered and inverted her lower lip as she knelt to Sachi's eye-level "Now...Are you going to be okay?"
Sachi nodded, looking down
"Want to look these over?" Cersei asked
"N-Not now. I'll look them over at home." Sachi answered
"Okay, let's head down. Mum's probably gotten some food ready." Cersei spoke
Sachi nodded, following her down
Downstairs Sachi and Cersei saw Bill with Kurumu being seated by Alicia
"Who's that with Bill?"
"Not sure...But we could ask." Cersei answered
"That's Ms Kurumu; she's the one who got me inducted to the Hera Familia." Sachi answered "And she's Bill's advisor. She made him take her on a date today."
"She forced him onto a date?"Cersei asked
"Err...Basically." Sachi nodded reluctantly "She said they were and he never said no."
"...He sounds like a pushover." Cersei spoke
Sachi frowned at her at that
"Sorry, I've not met many men with a spine." Cersei apologized
"He's a really nice guy." Sachi answered
"I believe so." Cersei nodded
"Ah, have you found your old spell books?" Alicia asked as she came past the stairwell.
"Yes we have. Thank you Mrs Alicia." Sachi nodded
"Sachi?" Bill asked
"Oh, hi Bill...Are you okay?" Sachi asked
"Yeah, just heading for lunch." Bill answered
"Hello Sachi." Kurumu smiled
"Hello Ms Kurumu." Sachi waved
"Who's your friend?" Kurumu asked
"I'm Alicia...So...YOU'RE Ms Kurumu..." Cersei spoke...intrigued, but tried to act normal
"That's right, are you a friend of Alicia?" Kurumu asked
"I'm her daughter." Cersei answered
"And an Adventurer." Kurumu nodded
"That as well." Cersei nodded
"Who's your advisor?" Kurumu asked
"Simon." Cersei replies
"The third best advisor?! You must have been an Adventurer for a LONG time of you are VERY good." Kurumu said, impressed, as she and Bill sat at their table while looking through the menus
"Well...I don't want to toot my horn, but yes." Cersei spoke with a proud smile
"Modest too." Alicia added
"Mum!" Cersei blushed; Bill chuckled lightly as he looked over the menu.
"... Mah, whatever. I'll have my usual please." Bill smiled
"One usual...Ms Kurumu?" Alicia wrote down the order
"I'll have...the fish meal please." Kurumu answered
"And one fish meal." Alicia smiled "It'll be ready soon."
"And a jumbo ale please!" She called after Alicia as she walked away
"And a jumbo ale." Alicia added
'A woman after my own heart...' Cersei thought
Bill chuckled nervously there, drinking his own drink softly
"So...I'll see you back home Bill?" Sachi asked kindly
"Yeah, see you back home Sachi." Bill nodded
Sachi nodded, heading off
*With Hera*
Hera sighed in boredom as she left the hall of the gods
'GODS, that was a long time!' Hera stretched out, then rubbed her eyes
"Hello Hera." a boyish voice spoke behind her
"Huh? Oh hello Hermes." Hera answered
"It is good to see you again." She smiled, walking and talking
"Yeah, you too. How's life for you though?" Hermes asked
"It is nice." She nodded with a smile
"I heard a rumour...about a member in your family with a strong heart." Hermes commented
Hera nodded lightly
"Blimey...never imagined you'd find someone with a strong heart. Who is it?" Hermes asked
"His name's Bill." Hera answered
"Bill? Kinda generic."Hermes answered
"It's his name." Hera shrugged
"I heard he went into the fiftieth level in the dungeon at level eleven...is that true?" Hermes asked
"What? No, he's only level one and he got to the tenth level. Who's spreading these rumours?" Hera asked
"It's word of mouth...You have to wade through the embellishments to find the truth." Hermes answered
"It is no problem." Hera sighed
"But still this "Bill" is getting quite the rep. Said he sliced a Barbarian group's axes into shards and cut their hands off in a single fight." Hermes answered
"Gossip isn't good, Hermes...It just fuels ego and makes ridiculous stories. AND it was ONE Barbarian's axe and ONE person's hand off...The latter stole his blade." Hera answered "For a messenger your information is terribly inaccurate."
"No need to be mean." He buffed childishly
"Besides, I like a good gossip story every now and then; pure true stories get boring." Hermes explained
Hera rolled her eyes at that, chuckling
"Can you blame me?" Hermes chuckled
"Lady Hera." A proud voice spoke, proud but...feminine
"Ah, Lady Thor; what do I owe the pleasure of being seen by the Norse God of Thunder?" Hera asked kindly
Standing there was a strong looking blonde haired, blue eyed woman drabbed in a black leather skin tight cat-suit with a cut our showing her stomach, a long red cape hanging from her shoulders, a thick brown belt around her waist and several metal plates over her forearms, legs and chest, the woman carrying a massive hammer
"I am inviting yourself and your Familia as guests of honour to my Familia's festival tomorrow!" Thor smiled
"R-Really? Such an honour." Hera smiled genuinely, the Greek Pantheon was nice to dine with but having an invitation from another Pantheon's Familia was a GREAT gift of hospitality
"So? What say you?" Thor asked
"My Familia and I will be honoured to join in the festivities." Hera answered with a respectable bow
"Wonderful!" She cheered "It will be QUITE the festival, bring an empty stomach." Thor smiled as she left
"Damn...YOU'VE changed." Hermes answered
"Huh? What do you mean?" Hera asked
"Normally, you'd lock yourself in your home and ignore people for being ashamed. But NOW...this Familia's given you the guts to go and join parties." Hermes answered
"Well...they've had a positive effect on me." Hera smiled "Plus Zeus won't be the there so I'll be safe."
"THAT...is VERY true." Hermes nodded, it was VERY common knowledge that Zeus hated other Thunder God parties as they made him feel...small.
...Come to think of it THAT is the real reason he slept with mortal women; they don't judge the size of a God if they sleep with them.
Because it's a God... And Hera barley even felt him
And if we 'prodded' any 'deeper' into the subject, Zeus would 'shoot a load' of lightning just 'coming short' of its mark.
Innuendo count: 4.
*with the authors*
"We should stop now." Grey said seriously
"I'm sorry..." Ghost chuckled to himself as the innuendos were rolling "I was thinking of: the Birds of Prey song..."
Grey groaned, face-palming
*back to the story*
"You ever get the feeling someone is on your side?" Hera asked
"Not really, no." Hermes answered
"I will see you later then." She nodded
"Bye!" Hermes waved as Hera left, smiling
*with Bill and Kurumu*
"Tonight was fun." Bill smiled as he walked Kurumu home, his bag of new equipment slung over his shoulder
"Yes it was. I can only imagine the look on Sachi's face when she sees those things." Kurumu answered
"Huh?" Bill frowned
"The belts and knives." Kurumu answered
"Oh right...are you okay? You seemed a bit quiet back at the pub." Bill answered
"I'm fine." Kurumu answered
"Kurumu." He frowned
"I enjoyed today, I really did, but that elf...She looked...nice." Kurumu answered
"Cersei looked nice? Yea, I guess she does." Bill nodded 'Was she just trying something out with me?'
"Don't think I didn't enjoy our date, because I LOVED it! I did, it's just that Cersei...caught my attention." Kurumu answered "Maybe we could let her join us every now and again." She said innocently
"I...err...Ha..." Bill fell backwards in a bloody nosed fainting spell.
"Oh Bill!" She gasped as she caught him, the two still in public
"Oh...Sorry, sorry!" Kurumu dragged him into her house 'You REALLY are something aren't you?'
