 Galatea was... perfect.

As she looked at her creation, Aphrodite couldn't help but send a smile of triumph to Athena, who had now an air of admiration on her face.

The thing is that Aphrodite was quite proud of her work, and to say the truth, she had every rights to be.

Long brown hairs, brown eyes...

Galatea was truly beautiful, and according to Hercules' look, the goddess had done a really good work.

She knew it, he would not go further than her simple beauty, and it was making her really angry (why did she accept to do this in fact ? Oh yes, it's true, she was stupid) and she thought again that he was really an idiot.

She didn't know Galatea yet (after all, she was just born at this moment), but she already knew that she was so much more than just her appearance.

That was the reason why she wanted to give Hercules a lesson, and she hoped he would understand.

Understand that yes, the personality of a woman (and of anyone else, by the way...) did matter, unlike what he seemed to think.

Because, apart this stupid reflection, the young hero was (most of the time) a nice guy, so why would he think this right now ?

(Oh, yes, she had forgot that too... Bad writers...)

Icarus had already left, not seeming to be that interested by what was happening just under his eyes (Aphrodite could have felt offended, but she didn't. It was not as if she cared about his point of view), and was probably with Cassandra, that he was... humph, humph... "courting" since a long, long time.

Well, to be honest, the term "harassing" would have been much more pertinent to describe the fact that he was pursuing her since... a very long time (hell, he was doing this even before Hercules arrived in the school), and that, even if she told him no at every moments.

This guy had serious difficulties to understand simple things as a simple NO.

He must have been/flied too close from the...

(STOP !

This joke had been made too much times.)

She still didn't know why no one had done anything against this behavior.

Oh yes, she had also forgot that they were governed by a god who adored harassing mortals, women as men.

Originally, in fact, in the mythology version, not in the Disney one.

Version in which they were...

(Yes, sometimes, breaking the fourth wall had no fucking sense.)

As she finalized the rest of her spell, Aphrodite thought with irritation at Cassandra's poor loneliness, since her only friends were Hercules and Icarus (how she could be friend with this... stalker, yes, that was a good term to define him, was still a mystery for the goddess.), and the goddess told herself that it was completely unfair.

It had to change.

She didn't notice that her spell was not the way it was usually, because yes, if she wanted to give a personality to Galatea, she wanted also her to fall in love with Hercules, but her magic didn't work well this time.

As Galatea began to move, surprised of being there, of being alive, the goddess smiled.

"Welcome to this world, Galatea.
