What: Tea.

Where: The King's Teagarden in Berlin
Warnings: Only if you've got a phobia of tea.

Aphrodite was very rarely on time for things... She was habitually just late enough to make an entrance without being rude, a skill honed over countless centuries. She was even less often early for anything... but given this strange world she was taking no chances. 10 minutes before 4 she was at the tea shop, explaining to the hostess in slightly archaic German (really, how was she supposed to keep up with every language people kept changing?) where she wished to be seated.

She declined the offer of scones, and bread, and tea, and everything else her waiter kept offering, sighing softly as he tripped over his words in an effort to please her, remembering why she didn't go out more often than she did. With a smile she pat his hand, explaining water was fine for now, and that she was waiting for a friend. Water achieved, she squeezed a bit of lemon into it and began perusing the menu as she waited.

"Ahh... And yet, not being dead, it can be problematic."

She nodded absently... She knew well enough the familiarity that came with a long term relationship. Granted, she was usually in more than one at a time, but that was often a situation beyond her control.

"So is it the familiarity of a relationship you look for, or the bloom of love? One doesn't always mean the other."

	"Exactly." She sipped her tea and thought for a moment. "I would like the first, with an option on the second? I like having someone to be with, but I don't necessarily want to jump back into a heavy duty relationship until I know what life here will be like." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Smart... Very smart." breaking of a bit of a roll, she buttered it lightly. "And any prospects? Do you know what you're looking for?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"One. A man from my previous world, but not someone I was close to."

She laughed a little. "His name is Bruce, and he's like a magnet, two extreme sides that can never touch each other."

But it was something she could understand. Her own life had mostly been dominated by the Phoenix, and she'd had little time, especially toward the end, to be herself.

"He dated a version of me from before. We've got a date for Halloween."

	"Ahh... but not your version? Sounds like it could prove intriguing. multiple aspects can always add a bit of spice, one way or the other." She smiled... Hades knew Ares tended to have his hands full dealing with all the aspects of love. "Are you hoping it might go somewhere?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
