You want to what?

I mean, I can obviously understand the urge to have me around all the time, but shoving me into my mortal vessel and keeping me there really isn't the answer. Go to Greece! Or, you know, the museum. Burn a goat on my behalf using nothing but a magnifying glass and the power of the sun. We'll talk. Would I lie to you? I'm certainly not supposed to.

Besides. Dylan probably wouldn't survive that kind of exposure to my presence for that long. Which doesn't have much of an effect on me while I'm in him, but if I happen to ever leave again? It's a little impossible to get permission to enter someone's body again when they're a vegetable.

[A beat] No, I don't care how many Oracles you throw at me. I'm not doing this. And if you keep pushing the matter, I'm going to have to unleash the power of some fourteen year old goth kid's poetry on you. I don't like having to take things that far, but you know I'll do it if you leave me no choice.

Kid, you're gonna need to have this all straightened out if you want the birthday card from good ole Uncle Hades. No permanent body, no gift card- you read?

[ gd pantheon families ]

Uncle. [He...thinks? Better safe than sorry when it comes to Hades, tbh.] You're looking a little...blue. [Or not]

Really? Didn't notice. But hey, haven't exactly been a big fan of mirrors since the Medusa snafu so what can you do.

[ a slurp from his glass. the garnish appears to be trying to escape from the top of it ]

So this. Teenager thing. You lose a bet? Make Auntie Athena mad? C'mon, what's the deal?

Stop whining. It just makes you more unattractive than you already are.

[There's a brief pause. Different voice, different face, but Apollo remembers all the mortals who have broken his heart at one point or another. Impressive, really, considering how long the list is] Cassandra. It's been a while. [A few millennia, for him]

Thank the gods for that. ((Her voice is dripping with sarcasm, and her posture is decidedly guarded - for good reason. There are no good memories associated with this god.)) I see your ego hasn't deflated even the slightest. What a shame.

Oracles?

Should I be jealous? I feel like I should be at least a little bit jealous.

[Rachel gets a brief pause as well, because this definitely isn't an Oracle that he picked out. But still - Oracle, it's a weakness of his, sue him. He smiles at her, the expression warm] Shouldn't I be the jealous one? After all, some other Apollo has managed to have a girl like yourself named as his Oracle.

[ tiny squint, curious, not judgey ]

I would absolutely focus on the compliment, but first- t's weird to think that there's more than one of you. Does this mean there's different Prophecies? Do you, by chance, come from a world that doesn't send my friends into deadly peril?

Apollo, dear, who wouldn't love to have you around all the time? Let the mortal have fun for now. The more fight you put up, the more obstinate they are.

[Iris gets a smile as bright as the sun. This goddess, he likes.] If there's one thing I've learnt over the ages, it's that no one gets what they want all the time. Something that someone else could stand to learn as well.
