Modern Gods (MxM)⚣

The gods have always relied on the human race, and the human race the gods.

Yet the mortal world, as time has progressed for them, has changed this dynamic considerably.

Some gods have kept their titles, still basking in the worship the humans have given them under their original names. Then there were the gods who learnt to adjust, much like my family, and the names they've named claim to have adapted much like the human world.

The last were gods who have faded through time. Gods no longer worshipped due to their irrelevance, or the sheer history of havoc they wreaked upon humans centuries ago, when gods could once walk the earth. Gods not worthy of being worshipped.

Now the rules are different; gods cannot mingle amongst humans unless their power specifically calls for it. They can only influence the mortal world.

And Zeus has found himself in some hot water these last few centuries because of this, because of his troubled past with the humans resurfacing. Think of it as society digging up some really old tweets and deciding to cancel you centuries later. But those tweets contain some of the worst atrocities known to man. Something to that effect.

Somehow, he's managed to convince a concerning amount of gods that this wasn't just his fight. That it was all of ours... which I, and some other gods knew for a fact that it was not.

His solution to a problem he more or less created?

A do-over.

Leave it to Zeus to flip the table whenever he was losing in a board game. How utterly childish.
