Ares, God of Battle & Bloodlust

Ares is the god of war, battlelust, civil order and manly courage. The son of Zeus and Hera, he was considered among the Twelve Olympians. He doesn’t have a wife or consort, but his adulterous affair with Aphrodite is well known. With her he had Harmonia, his only child attending the Academy. He is nothing like his half-sister, Athena. While she represents intelligence and strategy, he represents the violent and physical aspects of war. Stubborn and self-righteous, the only thing he has in common with his sister is their love of hunting. He is not the most agreeable god and his emotions can be volatile. Since arriving, he’s been carrying on his affair with Aphrodite. His closest friend is Enyo, though the two are just friends.

Ugh Morning.

Well, aren’t you the mother of Eris? I’d say your kids are pretty prone to acting out, or at least that one is. She’s great, but I can’t imagine the torture she must put you through as a mother. It all depends on the kids I guess, and how they were raised. Of course, sometimes they just have it in their blood to misbehave.

The “you” was for women in general, don’t worry. -smirks- So somebody has caught your eye, huh? It’s only natural. As you said, a woman has needs, regardless of whether or not her consort is with her. I’m always up for a little fun, but my heart’s not for sale. Care to tell me who the lucky fellow who’s caught your eye is?

I am. She is my baby girl. My children are what they were meant to be. -shrugs- And she isn’t always chaotic. Only most of the time. -giggles- But it is in her blood.

Just checking. If you had meant me personally I might have had to prove you wrong. A god has caught my eye and only my eye. But it is between me and him, if you can understand. My heart has been taken since creation. Sorry if I don’t believe that you are down for fun. -winks-

All kids are like their parents in one way or another. I’m not surprised that she gets her spark from you. Most of my children with Aphrodite take after their mother, but they’re all fighters and they get that from me.

Just between you and him? Good luck with that. It’s impossible to keep secrets from the gods. You think you’re being sneaky, and one day you find yourself naked in a golden net with all the gods of Olympus staring at you… -shakes his head- What, you don’t believe me? I don’t strike you as a fun kind of person, huh?


Ugh Morning.

warlordares:

You’re older than a great deal of things if you’re a direct descendant of Chaos… Most kids want the approval of their parents, but some would rather act out. I’ve always been a strict father, so my kids don’t try that shit with me. Even Deimos and Phobos don’t.

Are you kidding me? Every man can agree and understand what you mean. You women always think that we’re the only ones that don’t try in bed, but sometimes it’s you who isn’t pulling her weight. -huffs, nods- Aphrodite isn’t like that, but some others I’ve been with are. When you’ve had as many lovers as I have, you begin to lose track. Isn’t there anyone here who’s caught your eye?

I am one of the original goddesses, so yes I am extremely old. True. It tends to be one or the other. Sometimes to the extreme of either side.

I guess that is true. And it’s not all woman that think that only men can be selfish. I hope you mean the “you” in the general sense. -raises here eyebrow and stares at him- There might be. But mainly I’m keeping my options open… Are you asking because you might want to try to catch my eye? -grins-

Think fast // Ares & Harmonia 

peaceandharmonia:

Harmonia hoped the gulp that came over her wasn’t audible. The ring? Taping her hands? This was starting to look very bad very fast. Her father wouldn’t actually take a serious swing at her… would he? “Th-The ring?” she asked before she realized that it had actually come out out loud. She made herself straighten up upon hearing the meek words in her own ears. “The ring.” she stated again with a very put-on confidence. “Right.”

As soon as her feet were on the plastic vinyl and padding, her heart lept up into her throat. She’d never fought anyone in her life, not even a little. It was exceptionally rare that she ever even got angry. Suddenly taking fighting lessons from the god of war seemed like the stupidest thing she’d done since accepting that necklace. “Um… can I ask you something?” her voice was mousy and childish. She held her hands out for him to tape, not wanting to ask what the tape was for. “Are you going to punch me? Seriously, just tell me the truth.”

“Seriously?” Ares countered, not missing a beat. His eyebrows were raised and his face colored with confusion, not sure why she would want an honest answer to that. Before she could answer, he just shrugged. “Well, if I ever actually hit you, we’ll know you’re not doing a very good job. The idea is to block me before I can.” She didn’t look happy with that answer. He wasn’t surprised. “Sorry, kid. That’s the way is it. If you want to learn how to defend yourself, you’re going to need something to defend against.”

He quickly but carefully wrapped her hands in athletic tape, watching his hands as he worked. “So, you’re doing this for Cadmus, huh? Not for your old man?” His eyes flitted up to meet hers, then went back down again, his mouth smirking. “Yeah, that’s what I thought.” He said, seeing the sad expression on her face. “Only that precious husband of yours could ever talk you into doing something like this. It’s for your own good, and I think deep down you know it too.” Once her hands were covered in white, he tossed the roll to the side. “How’s that feel?” He asked, nodding his chin toward her newly tapped hands.

You can feel free to kill me yourself if you ever hear me campaigning for peace. Believe me, I love our daughter, but peace and harmony are the last things I want. I can’t even imagine the boredom and restlessness that would ensue. Hell, I’d start a war myself if it came to it. -smiles, tilts head- I could never hurt you, and sometimes I think you know you can get away with anything because of it. You’ve been nothing but good to me all these years, my beautiful treasure. -sighs- What would I do without you?

You’d be entirely out of your mind with boredom, love. There’s more to me than the good looks and the quaint charm that you know and adore, and that’s my ability to spice the routine of the Gods up. After all, I’m nothing but the life of the party. The life who’s fond of her War Lord. +faint smile+

Speaking of Harmony, I want to talk about that mortal husband of hers. Is it true he’s floating about, here?

Spicing up the routine of the gods is just one of your many talents. -smiles- You know, I blame you for my high expectations in goddesses. If you weren’t so damn good to me, maybe I would have a wife by now. You might have been if it weren’t for my repulsive brother. I don’t mind sharing you with other gods, I’ve always known we aren’t exclusive like that, but the thought of you and him… -shudders- You poor thing.

Oh, you mean Cadmus? Harmonia told me he was here with her, but I haven’t to run into him myself yet. What is it you want to say about him? Have you talked to him?


Well, I’m here.

If you tore out the throats of every goddess that slept with Zeus, there wouldn’t be very many left on Olympus… I never questioned whether you were fair, and that’s not out of any loyalty, but because I know you are. I’m not that reasonable as you or even father. I’ll punish people I personally dislike for no reason and let the ones I do like off the hook. -huffs- I guess that’s why you’re queen of the gods and not me. I’m lucky to be on your good side and I know it. I wouldn’t dream of getting on your bad side. From what I hear, it’s a very ugly place to be.

You’re also not Queen of the Gods because you are not a Goddess. That’s just an observation of mine. I’m sure my bad side could be equally as bad as torture in Tartarus. Stupid river God had the nerve to try and scare me with insults of torture. I feel the others often forget I don’t feel pain and I’m oh so offended. I have very creative ways of punishment, though. I’d be quite happy without so many Goddesses around to be quite honest.

Maybe you would be, but a god has needs. If there were less goddesses around here, I’d have to start sniffing around the gods, and that’s not really my thing. What river god are we talking about? Styx? Lethe? I didn’t even know dad invited them. Any god or goddess would be better off not getting into an argument with you. You have a clever tongue. It’s not easy to get anything past you. -huffs- The queen thing was a joke, mom. Of course I could never be queen. You know, you should work on that sense of humor.

Chaos, huh? That old? I guess I hadn’t realized until now that you were one of the first. It makes sense, though. Night is as old as the mortal world itself. How stupid of me not to realize… I think it’s natural for a child to want the approval of their parents.

Sometimes good sex just doesn’t cut it. Trust me, I know. If there’s somebody out there that really matters to you, whether he’s here or not, of course you don’t want to settle for someone else. I hope for your sake that Erebus shows. If not, I guess you’ll have to take your chances on the gods that are already here.

Mhm I’m a primordial goddess. Which just means I am older than sin. I have to agree, that children just want approval.

-snorts- Erebus is my love, but I’ve learned that a goddess has needs regardless of if her man is with her or not. Being trapped her won’t change that. I don’t mind taking my chances as you put it. But being with a selfish lover is the biggest turn off. I’m not sure you can agree or understand what I mean. But I believe both parties should equally be satisfied.

You’re older than a great deal of things if you’re a direct descendant of Chaos… Most kids want the approval of their parents, but some would rather act out. I’ve always been a strict father, so my kids don’t try that shit with me. Even Deimos and Phobos don’t.

chaotic-eris-deactivated2012030 said: Well well. Look what the cat dragged in.

Eris? Now this is a surprise! -laughs- You’re the last god I expected to see here. What in Tartarus brings you here? Couldn’t miss the chance to bring chaos to all this peace talk bullshit? -snerks- That’s my girl.
