ariadne, theseus

Who: Ariadne and Theseus
What: Drinks
When: Thursday, around 6pm
Where: Diogenes Club
Warnings: TBA

Despite Dionysus being dramatic about it, she was determined to keep Theseus as a friend. She didn't know why or when Dionysus had gotten it in his head that Theseus was there to seduce her away, but it was aggravating. In her opinion, her husband had no reason to keep grudges. Then again, most Olympians never had any good reasons to hold grudges, they just did it anyway.

So she'd gone to the Diogenes Club, knowing it was a safe environment for immortals to meet, plus she liked the atmosphere. She figured that, technically, this was her competition but she was never the competitive sort. She found herself a booth and settled down to wait for Theseus.

"I guess its an Olympian thing." He swirled his drink around watching her talk. He hadn't just sat down for a chat in a long time. "Are there? I thought I just imagined that." The Greeks were nuts when it came to fifty ways to tell a single story. It was hard to know which end was up. "I guess if I had anyone on my side its a good thing its one of you." He hadn't even seen Phaedra in a long time. He'd fallen pretty hard himself over that sister.

	"I'm not an Olympian." She wasn't, not technically. She was an Olympian's wife, yes, but she'd never held a title or a throne. But then she'd never wanted that, either. "But I am your friend yes. And there are tales. Either way I do get left behind and die. I never asked because I don't want to know. He just ignores those parts because he lacks self confidence."

	"You aren't, but he is and he's a lot like my father in how they set out their revenge." One would think they would set their sights on bigger subjects. Instead they liked acting out their grievances on everyone else. Theseus couldn't help but snort into his drink. "He lacks self confidence? A god?" If only Theseus had been so lucky with such a title. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Dionysus would probably not be pleased she was sharing this, but he could live with it. "He's like us Theseus. Like you." She sighed and then shook her head. "Half mortal. The only one to take a seat on the Twelve. Not even Heracles managed that." she looked down to her drink, "and after Hera drove him mad, he questions himself. Of course then he goes and acts like her. It's very frustrating."

"Ah, that's right." He clasped his hands together on the table. In hearing what little bit he could on Dionysus' weakness, Theseus took this as opportunity. "How long did it take him to get you?" If they were going to be 'friends', then there were some things to learn. Maybe it could help him keep Dionysus off his back. Befriending Ariadne was not going to settle an Olympians insecurities.
