[Color=6666FF]"In my experience it doesn't really matter what you do or what they want. They'll meddle in regardless and make your life a living hell. Before this quest I'd never even so much as spoken to your mother, let alone done anything to make her mad at me."[/color] He shrugged, looking back over his shoulder at where he'd come from and wondering how Zeke would take this all. It'd barely been a day and already they were facing so much hardship in their relationship. What if Zeke started having second thoughts? Not only about Demi but about his whole identity and perspective? Deciding if this is how Aphrodite treated queen relationships that perhaps maybe it wasn't worth the effort. Demi sighed, giving Alexios a leveled and apologetic look. Clearly the god didn't plan for any of this either, and it was harsh to take out his frustrations on him, but he also couldn't exactly do it to Aphrodite. [Color=6666FF]"Look, I know you didn't mean for this to happen, but I do have a boyfriend and it's kind of new so…please try and get along while we sort this all out. He [i]just[/i] found out he likes guys, I don't really need to throw in having multiple partners at the same time. We're gonna go grab a bite to eat and discuss what we're doing from there. So…come on."[/color] Demi grabbed Alexios' hand, purposely not intertwining his fingers and holding it more as a way to guide him like a friend than an actual loving way. Luckily the walk back was short meaning he had little time to think of more ways for Zeke to hate him, unfortunately it also meant the walk was short so now he'd have to face his boyfriend sooner. As they rounded the corner he could see his boyfriend right where he'd left him, breaking into a light jog as he dragged Alexios along with him and stopping just a few feet away from Zeke. [Color=6666FF]"So…uh…there's no easy way to say this Z but…apparently dad and Aphrodite made some sort of a deal and now im…betrothed. Ta-da here's Alexios god of…something, Son of Aphrodite and Ares."[/color] Demi let go of Alexios hand, using both of his to gesture towards him as he introduced Alexios.

Nancy seriously needed a new catchphrase, mostly because if he had to hear her say it one more time he may actually oblige her and make her choke on a spoon. Though he quickly dismissed those thoughts and thought better of it. His mother always said 'The first thoughts you think are what society has raised you to think, the second is the kind of person you are' He certainly didn't want to be the kind of monster that Nancy seemed to think he was. Cass was quickly pulled out of his own head as Zeke suggested [i]hotdog[/i] buns at Burger King. Was this another IHOB situation? Did Burger King once attempt to make and sell hotdogs at their stores? The idea alone was repulsive, but he didn't say anything on it. Thankfully Kristin and Zeke had both agreed to his plan. It was never good to split a party, but he figured in this situation it should be fine. Besides, three's were their lucky numbers after all. With those two in agreeance, it was a majority vote and Cassian had already waved goodbye to Kristin as she began to make her way out. [Color=CC00CC]"Zeke, level with me, any idea on why Aphrodite has taken an interest in you two? Did either of you do something to piss her off on a quest or at camp?"[/color] He'd of hoped it was a boon, but given Demetri’s inability to use his powers up until now, it was clearly a detriment. Not long had passed until Demetri finally came back, bringing another man in tow. But to hear who he was…it left Cassian speechless as his gaze affixed on Zeke to see how he'd respond.
