Who: Thetis and Peleus
What: It's a reunion! Sort of.
When: Mid-June
Where: A bar in Toledo, OH
Warnings: TBD

Thetis had been quite enjoying her travelling over the past months. She had no time constraints, nothing keeping her in any one city for too long, and conversely, nothing to prevent her from staying as long as she wished.

Her driving had brought her to Toledo yesterday, and she'd walked around the city for a few hours, taking in some of the sights and local cuisine. She had a feeling, though, that she might not be staying too long. Nothing against the city, it just wasn't reaching out and grabbing her like others had.

That didn't mean, however, that she couldn't stay another night and have a few drinks. Which is precisely what she was doing, nursing a martini and enjoying the atmosphere of the bar, as well as the glances her short, sea-green dress drew from some of the patrons.

"Yeah, I'm built to take quite a lot." He looked like a footballer. It was definitely an advantage. "I would have been okay, just really disappointed."

He listened carefully as she described her son. Something told him he should have known who it was. "Oh? Would I know him? Big name or just getting his feet wet." There were a lot of people in the business that were easily overlooked. Bit by that smile on her face he didn't think that was the case..

She couldn't help it, she let out a little snort of laughter. "Yes, I can see that," she said, gesturing vaguely in a way meant to encompass his entire person. She patted his arm. "Fear not, I had my fill of cheese steak and some good memories of Philly."

"Oh, he's been around for a while now," she said, proud of Achilles' accomplishments, as always. "Adrianus Leventis, he's done a few things that did very well."

"I am pleased to hear it," he gave a sturdy grin swigging down some of his beer.

She did sound like a proud mother---that wouldn't have been the first one he would ever meet. At the name it sorta rang a bell. The face was very similar to her, so that could have been where the familiarity came from. There was still something else about her that was niggling away inside. "Ah, that nominated film a few years back. Sabine was it?" He'd seen it plastered on the side of a bus.

	"That's the one," she agreed. "It was his all-consuming project, I've seen it several times. I think I even have a copy on DVD in a box in storage. He's just so talented, but then again, I'm probably biased." She waved one hand, setting her bangles to tinkling. "But anyway. Tell me a bit about you, what do you do?"

"You have beat me on that one. I'm pretty sure I've only made it through once," he waved up a single finger from being wrapped around the neck of his bottle. "It was good what I do remember of it." Though considering it was his own son (which he did not realize), he should have remembered the whole thing.

"What do I do? Well, I'm a college football coach. Nothing exciting there is there?"

"To each their own," she acquiesced. "He makes what he likes and what he knows, and I'll admit it's not always everyone's cup of tea."

"I think that, as long as you enjoy it, that's all that matters," she replied. "I used to teach Marine Microbiology. Not terribly exciting to others, perhaps, but I love the sea, and sharing my love and knowledge with others, so it was perfect for me."

	A lot of what she said pointed to his past. Loved the sea, had a son she spoke of with pride. He should have known right then and there who he was talking to, but he was more focused on the way she glowed when she talked. It was a glistening like the sun creating the top of the ocean. "What happened? You said used to teach?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
