WHO: Eros and Aphrodite
WHEN: Wednesday afternoon
WHERE: Dite's place
WHAT: The god of love still isn't feeling very lovey. He goes to mother's (by order of command) to fix it.
WARNING: None? Just an unruly Eros

Eros had always been a cocky little sprite, he was a trickster, but he always did it with good intentions. If he threw out curses it was because he'd been slighted (he could be a sore loser), but he'd given retribution in the name of love to those who didn't respect it or appreciate it. The darkness had pulled out his jealous streak which had always been there, but it had been a long time since so many of his siblings had been in the picture. Even Anteros who was there to keep him company, to be his favorite brother, Eros had remained jealous of the attention being all over the place. He just hadn't felt comfortable in his own family for at least a month or so. When the darkness hit it twisted that and hung on. It may have lifted but the sore spot in Eros' bruised ego was still there. He'd snapped at Psyche, he'd lost his MTV gig, he was a lost little boy that needed his mommy for help.

When he came to the door he cried the moment Aphrodite let him in. He couldn't help it. He wanted her to fix this, even if deep down a part of him liked it.

If there was one thing in the world that Aphrodite couldn't stand, it was seeing her children in pain. Especially Eros. He was the most troublesome of them - troublesome than all the rest combined sometimes - but he was, always and ever, Aphrodite's favourite.

"Oh, my lamb," Aphrodite said as she gathered him into her arms, laying kisses on his head. "Tell me what's happened."

Eros shook his head back and forth. "I don't know." It was such a different feeling for him. He clung to her tightly like a little child that had been lost in a department store for hours before his mother returned.

"I've snapped at Psyche, I'm ruining everything." He cried harder as he sunk his face into her bosom. "My hits are all out of anger. I don't feel any love at all." And he didn't. Hardly a drop.

	That Love could not feel the very thing he was created of was a very worrying development, one that could render her whole area moot. "When did this begin happening?" She asked, stroking his hair. There was clear tension in her voice as she asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"During the blackout," though he'd been feeling hurt long before that. He didn't express that yet. He was a failure to her like this and he knew it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's alright," Aphrodite told him, drawing the boy back to look at him seriously. Her tone had taken on a rather Olympian tone. "This is going to pass, do you hear me? You are Love and the darkness has burned all of us. You'll return to your own ways and be Eros again. Do you understand?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"How?" He shot off with attitude. "Psyche couldn't fix it. How are you going to?" He mouthed off at Psyche too, it was part of the side effects he'd picked up. He had always had a little spritely attitude but he was being mean without reason right now. (Reply to this) (Parent)
