Hey, do you know why he called this meeting?

What do you mean a meeting hermes? I have not heard of this meeting.

Relax Artemis, he just called council only moments ago.

This meeting better be important, I have many things to take care of

What do you need to take care of? Your people, again? You know Hestia, they really need to live on their own.

That’s beside the point, Demeter. Once all of the Gods are here, we can commence council.

Well while we wait, I’m glad to see all of you are doing well.

Likewise, Dionysus.

Indeed, Poseidon, although it would be nice to have everyone show up in a timely manner.

It seems we are missing a few.

Well I made it finally, I came as soon as I could.

Ah Athena, you know you don’t have to show up on time. Zeus would NEVER punish you.

Silence, Apollo! While you are busy playing your little instruments and singing I'm busy waging war and guiding troops to pure unadulterated victory.

Zeus, what do you say about Hades?

We shall not speak of him, he shall remain in his place. To bring him to Olympus would just cause problems.

As if he would show up anyway.

Exactly what I was thinking, Hera. We shall start the council now.

Uh, Zeus, we are missing some.

It seems that they fail to show up; I shall deal with them later.

See, Athena you just barely made it. He might have gotten angry with you.

You know what Apollo, I'm sick and tired of you, if you want we can take this to my-

SILENCE! You two are pushing me to my limit with this nonsense.

Di- Did, That, just happen? We got sound effects in the budget?

Alright, alright, let’s not get distracted. Zeus, why are we here?

Yes, sorry, I apologize for my outburst, but I have heard some trouble and distress among the gods, therefore I called council to see what exactly is going on.

Yes father, I do have something to show you. This is where the trouble you have sensed is.

Is that Ares??

Not only, but Aphrodite as well.

Ares and Aphrodite? Shock.

What do you mean? You can clearly see Aphrodite is being a cheating harlot!

You make it so unbelievably hard to understand you.

Anyone that has been involved with Aphrodite say ‘Aye’

‘Aye’

Ares, why didn’t you answer?

I think that should be self explanatory.

Alright, now that this is settled, can someone please let me out of here?

Blasphemous! Father gave her to me. Did you forget that it was me who made all your weapons? I was given to her for my services to you. She should only be with me.

Hephaestus, I am kindly asking you to stop talking. Why should you be with you if she did not choose you? She clearly prefers to be apart from you.

But I- I made ALL of your weapons!

ENOUGH!

Yep! That did happen.

Oh my!

You had to go and set it off, didn’t you, you imbecile?

Hephaestus, as much as I thank you for the weapons, I can not stand here while you disrupt the realm of gods. Yes I did give you Aphrodite however she chooses if she wants to stay. I am frankly tired of all the issues you are causing. I gave you a little bit and now you think you have the authority to trap gods and not allow them to govern their respective areas. I threw you off of Olympus once before and I am very tempted to do so again. You have proven time and time again that you are my least favorite child. You couldn’t even be born properly.

Zeus…

I left you alive out of sympathy and the very small amount of gratitude I have for you, but it is now gone. We could have found another person to make our weapons if necessary. You were only convenient.

Zeus.

You came out ugly and we tried to get rid of you. But of course you HAD to live past the first time you were thrown off Olympus and you came back here even worse. Honestly, I wish you were never born!

Enough Zeus!

At least he is finally honest.

We were all thinking the same thing.

Zeus, you are acting irrational.

No Hera, I get it. I apologize for my actions.

I don’t get it, I never wanted to come out like this, I did everything they asked for. I never asked to be a god. I can not stand this anymore! It seems like I should just seclude myself, maybe go live among humans, not like I didn’t do it before. I guess this is just the way it has to be.
