Who: Triton, Internet, Athena
What: Seeing just what Internet can do and paying a much needed visit
Where: Triton's Mansion and the Surrounding Area
When: Sunday
Once she'd made up her mind, Athena wondered why she'd waited so long before doing this. She'd had reasons, perfectly logical ones, against seeing Triton before the problems within her pantheon were resolved, but the more she spoke with him, the more it appeared that he needed to see her.
And as for Internet... while she wasn't entirely sure what to do about him, she did not think it was right that he had to hide for fear of his safety. He was a young god with an incredible amount of power, all he needed to be able to avoid pain was a small bit of direction in how to use it. Training heroes to unlock their potential had always been one of her specialties. And he was strong, and fascinating, and she could very nearly taste his power when she was around him - power that she knew would attract many. She could not guard him from them, she would not limit his development, she would allow him to make his own choices... but for no apparent reason she had won a... place of influence with him, and Athena was reluctant to let that go.
Obviously, Internet could not remain in hiding forever. And equally obviously, he was driving Triton mad. Both of these reasons were good enough for Athena to dress in simple, easy to fight in clothes, close her eyes in the safety of her apartment, and open them in front of Triton's door.
She reached out and rang the doorbell. While she waited, she tried to decide what she would say to the man who had been a faithful father to her... and to the new god who had risked himself simply because he felt it was right.
