Who: Psyche and Rhode
What: Girl talk
When: Thursday evening
Where: Psyche's place
Warnings: tbd

Men were hopeless. Utterly hopeless. But Psyche had learned to turn a blind eye when they simply wouldn't listen. In the case of her dear brother-in-aw that was most certainly true. She agreed with Rhode's prediction. And she expected that if they didn't call Aphrodite she would be getting that call. It made her groan, but there was no way she would ever leave them in jail if she did get that call.

For now she focused on Rhode. She was good at listening and giving sound advice when it was asked of her. But mostly she just listened quietly and comforted where it was appropriate. She and Hedone had a quick dinner and Hedone was hurried to bed. She suspected this conversation might be a little too adult for her daughter.

Just as she finished loading the dishwasher the doorbell sounded. She opened the door with a smile. "Hi! Come on in and get comfortable.. I'm about to put some coffee on."

Rhode had gotten dressed in a comfortable flowing dress and sandals, pulling a cardigan on to keep out the light chill. She got a cab to Psyche's place, resting her head on the window as the city flashed by in colors and shadows. When they arrived, she paid the driver and got out, going up to the door and pressing the bell.

She waved a bit when Psyche pulled the door open, smiling at her. "Thanks for having me," she said softly, slipping inside and shutting the door. She followed Psyche inside, taking a seat at the kitchen table. "Sure is quiet."

Psyche had settled into some pajama pants and a t-shirt. She figured if the boys wouldn't be there for dinner then she would just be comfortable. Her hair fell loosely over her shoulders and she just felt so much relief being out of her scrubs and having her hair down.

"You're very welcome. I enjoy the company," she said with a smile. "Yeah, Hedone fell right to sleep without Eros around to rile her up. He likes slipping her candy at bedtime so she tends to bounce off the walls for a while before crashing." Even if it did frustrate her there was still amusement in her tone. She checked on the coffee and pulled out a couple of mugs. "How do you like yours?"

Rhode laughed. "It doesn't surprise me at all, that he does that, " she said. "How is Hedone, anyway? I haven't seen her since my wedding."

She settled into her chair, still favoring her right side, but still pretty comfortable. "And I'm happy to provide company. Aphrodite has been nothing but kind, but getting out makes me feel like less of an invalid. So it's nice." She tilted her head at Psyche's question. "Two sugars, please."

Psyche chuckled, "Eros is a child himself sometimes." She paused and shook her head, "No, most of the time." She laughed a little more at that. It wasn't unknown that Eros could be incredibly childish, but Psyche was probably the one person who got to see how serious and non-childish he could be. "She's doing great, has a lot of friends in her class. That girl attracts people like flies."

Psyche nodded and prepared Rhode's coffee the way she wanted it and set it down on the table in front of her. "I understand what you mean. Getting out and doing things on your own is good. It's good for both body and mind. Just don't go overboard, okay? We don't need to worry more than we already have." Psyche had seen the conversations over the journals and had been pretty terrified to hear what had happened. She didn't like violence herself, but she thought finding the person and getting back at her would show this woman she can't just go around harming people because she felt like it.

She prepared her own coffee and sat across from Rhode. "Other than marital pains you're okay?"
