Daphne: Open

There were times, few and far between, that Daphne wanted to be a tree again. Right now was one of them. She'd felt Apollo before he'd walked in, and even now the sheer panic had driven her into a corner that was the farthest away from the sun-god. She even worried how her dress may get attention, which was beyond silly.
The only reason she didn't outright run was because he was blocking her exit, and unless she grew wings she wasn't about to leap over the railings. She hated it, hated how her life was so ruled by a curse. She tried being stronger then it, and she succeeded sometimes, but now she didn't feel so strong.
She felt like the only nymph at this party, and would run the minute she had a chance.

Eros - Open

Eros flitted around like a lightening bug, bright, beaming and ecstatic. So many faces and so many opportunities. It was like having the entire pantheon on his show. Clapping his hands Eros meandered about, a kid on a sugar rush. He'd seen his mother, father and even Dionysus wandering about.
He nearly skipped over when he saw Daphne with a bright grin on his face, which grew wider in seeing Apollo also within distance.
Eros had cleaned up, looking snazzy in his suit ehh he'd picked out proudly himself, only Hedone had chosen the tie.
"Daaaaaaappphhhnneee," he said in a sing-song voice as he approached.

It was easy, too easy, to shift from panicked to anger. Eros had ruined her life, all because he'd wanted to get back at Apollo. And maybe the sun-god had deserved it, but she hadn't.
So she straightened, glaring at the Love god. She didn't care if she earned his anger. She just wanted him away, and to leave her alone. "Go. Away." She felt naked without her weapons, bow or spear, and she couldn't hope to win in a fight with him. But she'd still try. "I don't want to talk to you. I don't want to have anything to do with you. Go bother someone else."

"Hey now," he said in a pout, "I'm trying to help." He grinned madly now checking to see if Apollo had seen. "I told you before I didn't mean to get you wrapped up in all that, if I could fix it I would," only with him there it wasn't as dull a pain as it had been before.
"But I wanted to chat with you," he beamed.

She glared up to him, not caring if she'd earn his wrath. There wasn't anything more he could do to her. Her fingers curled up in a fist, not even caring if Apollo saw or not anymore. "then fix it. Find a way. You ruined my life with your petty game." She shook her head, "I have nothing to say to you. Not now. Not ever."

Eros got a mischievous look in his eyes as he settled them over on Apollo who looked like he was losing his little pow-wow party. His grin got bigger as if to push the god over this way. Eros didn't much like Mr. Sun, and the friendly part that actually liked Daphne honestly wanted to help.
It was like pouring lemon juice on a paper cut.
"Wait. Wait here," he said bouncily at Daphne as he skipped slightly out of the crowd to pull that uptight Sun God over.
