Elle: *sitting on the kitchen counter, drinking a mango shake*
Athena: *mixing cookie dough across the room*
Hermes: *making more shake in the blender*
Elle: You know how Hermes once dated Dite?
Athena and Hermes: *stiffen*
Athena: *clears her throat* Yeah, and what about it?
Hermes: *glances at Athena* It wasn't dating.
Athena: *raises an eyebrow* Then what was it to you?
Hermes: It was a fling and it meant nothing more than that.
Athena: Then why did you keep it a secret from me for years?
Hermes: We've talked about this.
Athena: No, actually, we didn't. You didn't have the guts to tell me and I had to hear from Apollo!
Hermes: I know, and I'm sorry—
Athena: *huffs and looks at Elle* Elle, what's this about?
Elle: My friend DemigodofCrops wanted to know how you feel about that.
Athena: *clicks her tongue* Well, at least you know how I feel. I don't care!
Elle: *mutters under her breath* Doesn't seem like it.
Athena: *glares at him* You told me I never had to worry about her. Nothing happened between you two, you said. But of course, I should have known that nobody can resist beautiful little Aphrodite, right?
Hermes: *furrows his eyebrows* Athena, this was years ago. Please —
Athena: Go ahead! Do it again, I could care less! *leaves*
Hermes: *lets out a sigh*
Elle: *blinks* Wait, why does it seem like she just recently found out?
Hermes: It slipped out from Apollo a few weeks ago when we were drunk at Dionysus' party.
Elle: A few weeks ago? But... didn't you two hook up like thousands of years ago?
Hermes: *gives her a sheepish look*
Elle: You managed to keep that kind of secret from her for that long?! No wonder she's pissed.
