Lore(ish) i scribbled this into my mind in 5 seconds buts thats oki amv is based off this im so sorry this is my first animation meme (after the amv) EVER. everything is off timing and i cant fix it </3 (warning of some dark themes, blackmailing, affairs, toxic relationships, etc) -Venus/Aphrodite POV- It's been 240 years. Am I used to it yet? No. You can never get used to this. You can never get used to the constant blackmailing from your own father and your apparent husband. I know he never really cared about me. Both of them I mean. Ares does it for himself, he couldn't give a hellhound about my side of the "relationship". Zeus... well... he's afraid of me being happy I guess. Happy enough to change a few of his lovely set of rules. You can't blame me for wanting to get with another guy... I mean... his face reminds me of everything I could live for. Poseidon, god of the sea. Also my uncle, but then again, Ares is technically my brother, and the gods don't care about that stuff nearly as much as mortals soooo... I'm not sure why I didn't ditch the god of war yet. Am I scared? Of who? Him or Zeus? Maybe both, maybe none, but all I need is a chance to get to water. *Any* water. I would've done it a long time ago, but I've only met him for 2 weeks. And gods don't need to drink or bathe. Then I got my chance. Ares wanted to go see the release of this mortal invention called a movie. He said he wanted to see how bad it was and then destroy the screen just for reactions, but I think he's enjoying it. I don't know, I've been closing my eyes the entire time. He never asked me if *I* wanted to go see a war movie, and FYI, I don't. Blood and gore has never really been a god of love and beauty thing. But one thing I knew: this place had water. In a vile place, but still water. The toilets. Yes, I know, very dignified. But a god doesn't do "waste products". "Will you excuse me for a minute, honey?" I say, forcing out the last word. "I need to go to the lady's room to fix my fur. Apparently mortals find it unacceptable to do it here." Ares waved a hand at me, clearly locked on the movie. "Huh? Yeah, whatever." The public bathroom smelt... well, I guess you know what it smelt like. I brushed it off. There were mortal women here and there. No privacy, so I went into a stall just in case the water decided to do something tricky. I found water in the most vile place, but then again, what choice did I have? Sticking a part attached to my amazing body wasn't really a thing you'd see the god of love and beauty doing either, but then I imagined his face... I barely had time to register water coming out of the toilet and grabbing me by my wrists. I don't know if I teleported or went through the pipes or whatever, but there I was, somewhere dark and wet. And salty. I was in the ocean. And not just the oh-so-pretty beach ocean. I was in the /ocean/. It was really dark, but somehow I could feel everything. And I could *breathe*. A fish swam by, eyeing me lovingly. That was weird, but I guess those are the perks of being a god of - well you get the idea. The fish was still better than Ares. I wondered how the pressure wasn't killing me, even if Poseidon was restraining it. Something was talking to me. I let go of all my struggles to swim and let the water cradle me, guiding me to wherever it was trying to get me. -Neptune/Poseidon POV- I probably shouldn't be cheating on Amphitrite again. And lying to Triton. But Aphrodite's face just let me look into it and all my problems would melt away... I woke up from daydreaming with a jolt. Another god was in my domain. And not just any god, it was the one non-sea god I would let in here. Instantly I teleported, hoping to see her warm fur. "Poseidon!" she almost squealed in joy. Yep, that was her. I swam over and hugged her. "Are you alright? I sensed you were near water away from Ares so I took the chance... did I ruin anything?" "No! It was perfect!" said Aphrodite in delight. We traded some more mushy words and then I teleported both of us to the nearest island. "Let me speak to my brother," I said, referring to Zeus. Aphrodite's eyes widened in fear. "No! Please don't! He can never know." I was confused, but I decided not to ask anymore questions. We walked along the shore together.
