Go to a game? What, where like, everyone harasses me day and night to sort out their love-lives for them and then has a go at me when they screw it up? No, thanks! I like having a life of my own, you know. One free of bitching bitches. Would they even build me a temple? A teeny, tiny shrine? No, they wouldn't, so whatever.

And, sweetpea, for the record? I wouldn't touch some of these weirdos with a ten-foot pole even if I wasn't the Goddess of Love.

Like OMG honey. Lighten up, I doubt everyone will come to you with their relationship problems.

[halfdressed]

Whatever. Like you wouldn't have any trouble imagining what it's like to be me, I'm so surprised — and you can knock off that rude, facetious attitude problem, dudebro. These are serious problems, here.

[idkworldruler]

Had no clue they were serious problems.

[halfdressed]

Okay, well, maybe you aren't rude, then. Maybe you're just weird instead.

Fair is fair, fair Sister; if they want your help, they ought to be willing to put in the time and effort for some decent worshipping. A shrine is the least to ask for.

Still, it's a pleasure to see that you're blooming so well under munly adversity. How have you been, sweet Aphrodite?

[halfdressed]

Herc! Hey, get a load of you rocking the facial hair, it's a good look! Work it. And I know right? Except I'm down with helping out the stinky, unwashed needy even without a temple because I'm just that generous.

I'm good! How're you?

Here, have a Goddess of Chaos and Discord from DC Comics. :D

[chaosanddiscord]

Oh, you're so adorable. I've yet to see you find a man you wouldn't touch with anything, forget just a ten-foot pole!

ahhh yes good c:

[halfdressed]

Wow, are you sure you've got the time to be bitching at people? You don't want to miss that appointment to have your back shaved.

[chaosanddiscord]

You have me confused with Artemis, darling. She's the hairy beast. Which, considering both who you're married to and who you consort with, I'd think you'd have learned to keep your hairy ducks all in a row. You know. Except for everytime you get caught cheating.

[halfdressed]

Hey, Artemis was cool. Little hench on the archery, but still. Also, what about being married? I'm single, thanks very much, not that it's any of your business.

[ fffff marriage. As if. ]

Do you have some kind of internal damage you project onto whoever happens to be around? Because I don't know you from Discord's dead, skanky backside right now.

[a_good_detective]

Hmm. I would offer comfort your mundane wouldn't do that to you, but most muns are cruel enough to do so regardless of how logical your objections are. Instead, might I suggest that you, if sent to a game, hide your status as the Goddess of Love? That would seem to be your only true form of defense given the mentality of mundanes.

[Speaking of love, know how locked on to his dead girlfriend Sherlock is? He's from the Edwardian Era, where ankles are scandalous, and yet he's not even registering that Aphrodite is attractive. And he's a freaking teenage boy, the demographic known for their total lack of standards. You aren't Elizabeth so you are neither attractive nor are you impressive despite being a goddess.]

[halfdressed]

I seriously don't think that would go down. I've tried pretending to be the Goddess of the Hunt, Wisdom, even a warrior like my big bro Herc, it just didn't pan out.

[ She is way attractive, even for a goddess, which would be her argument, but he only gets a fond look for his advice. It's not like she chases down admirers, it's the respect that means something. Well, and the fawning is nice, but still. Go team True Love! ]

What's your name, cutie? It's super sweet of you to try and help a girl out.

[a_good_detective]

Perhaps you're not using the right methodology. There's always something new to be tried, and I, at least, have few other possible suggestions.

Ah, forgive my lack of introduction. My name is Sherlock Holmes. And personally I think everyone here should endeavor to help one another out. We are, figuratively speaking, in the same boat, after all.

[lovedbynone]

I'd say "you could always just fly under the radar" but that's not really you, is it?

[halfdressed]

And it wouldn't be much fun, you've got that right.

[lovedbynone]

Which is really the most important thing. I don't know what I'd do if I stopped enjoying my work.

But really, it's mortals. Would you really have that hard a time?

[ofspring]

You've attracted quite a crowd, I see.

Unsurprising.

[halfdressed]

Well, duh, Miss Obvious. That's like, my whole problem? Ugh, I'm so wanted.

[ofspring]

I cannot imagine that has ever been a "problem" for you.

[captain_nebula]

And here I thought you gods just loved playing games.

Or was that just "playing games with us?"

[halfdressed]

Honestly? A bit of both.

[captain_nebula]

Glad you can still be honest, Dite.

[lovedbynone]

Same difference.

[captain_nebula]

Yeah. Seems like.

[intrinsicrandom]

Some of them might, actually.
