[Filter to Greeks in NYC]

So I have business in NYC this coming week and I thought it only fair to warn you that I'll be in town. If you want to see me, fine. If not, I promise I won't look you up.

Fair enough. Call it a little defensive armor. I'll keep the habit in mind for next time.

But you're certainly gearing up to give me a fight here, aren't you, kiddo?

she sure is XD

I wouldn't need to gear up to fight you, if that were my intention, Ares. And don't call me "kiddo".

Alright, Athena. I'll keep that in mind, too.

So I guess you don't want me to swing by so we can play catch-up. Take care of yourself and I'll send you a Christmas card come December.

Oh please, I'm not stupid. I know you stuck that little caveat in there just for me, as I'm the only Greek around that you might possibly make cross by being here. You're instigating and trying to play CYA at the same time.

You may not be stupid but you can't deny you're being self-centered. If you remember your family history correctly, you'll remember that I was not the most popular guy to pal around with. For example, Hephaestus might have reason to want me to, as the kids say, DIAF and he's just down one state below NYC.

[Athena always was a little vain..... A lot vain.]

One state below NYC, not in it.

Close enough when dealing with a cuckolded husband. The point is, however, sister, that I am coming to NYC and I chose a pretty goddamn sarcastic way of announcing it and you saw fit, in your superior knowledge and wisdom, to call me on it.

Are we all copacetic now?

[tritonia.insanejournal.com]

I always see fit to call you on your copious amounts of bullshit, bro.

[blood-dog.insanejournal.com]

As you see it. You always did have an addiction to three magic little words.

You know what, Ares? I can't wait to have you in town. You should totally stop over for coffee and to catch up. It would be the best time.

[Athena no, stop...wait! No! Aww jeez. She disconnects in a snarly huff. She'll figure out later that being just as sarcastic to him as he had been in his initial message was probably a bad idea.]
