Tremble Foolish Mortals: The Gods and You , Class Three [Period 5, Thursday]

When the students came in Ares was sitting at the front of the room throwing energy bolts at a number of scurrying action figures, whenever one connected he would start giggling in a most ungod-like manner.

When he finally noticed his class, Ares stood up. "Firstly, I would just like to say that anyone who wants detention for the rest of the semester just has to mention last weekend, white leather, or the L-word."

"Now that we've got that out of the way, Today we are going to be talking about Zeus and Hera, the King and Queen of the Gods, and my parents, so no disrespect from you brats."

Aphrodite	If the class had been paying any attention to Ares, they would have noticed a blonde woman appear in a brilliant flash of pink light and glitter behind him.
Ares	Ares stopped mid-sentence. "Oh, no."
Aphrodite	Which would be when the blonde tackled Ares with a hug. "Ar!" she squealed happily.
Ares	"Aphrodite," Ares replied flatly, returning the hug awkwardly. "What are you doing here?"
Aphrodite	"Visiting you silly," Aphrodite replied.
Ares	"Why right now?" Ares asked. "Can't you see I'm in the middle of class?"
Aphrodite	"I can see that," Aphrodite said and waved to the class. "Hey little dudes and babes." "That's why I'm here, I hear you were teaching a class about the fam and thought I could give my bro a hand."
Ares	"And how exactly do you propose to do that?" Ares hissed. "They're vicious little vipers who won't listen to the Goddess of Love."
Aphrodite	"You willing to bet on that?"
Ares	"Sure," Ares threw his hands in the air. "Why not?" "Kids," he pointed to the class. "This is my sister, Aphrodite, Goddess of mumble. Play nice with her."
Aphrodite	"Okay, little groovers," Aphrodite, addressed the class. "I'm Aphrodite, Goddess of Love. Now I know what you guys are thinking, how does she get her hair like that? The answer, my friends, is well, Goddess." "Now some of you dudes have the look of being weetiny warrior dudes and babe, and that's cool, but I know that there's often a perception among the sword and leather types of Love being weak," she said. "And I'm afraid that that can't be further from the truth." "Don't believe me?" she said. "Well, you've obviously never seen the results of unconstrained uncontrolled, overwhelming love, or lust as the case may be, why I remember the time someone-who-shall-remain-nameless got hold of my baby boy Cupid's arrows..." Aphrodite stopped as a wee glittery lightbulb went off over her head. "Dudes, I have has the most bodacious idea, instead of me telling you about this kind of thing, we're going to demonstrate." She turned to Ares. "Bro, you got a class list?"
Ares	From over at his desk where he'd started drinking heavily when the lightbulb went off, Ares gestured and the roster appeared in glowing letters.
Aphrodite	Aphrodite clicked her fingers a second list of names appeared next to the first. "Okay, student dudes, you see the name after yours?" Aphrodite asked. "For the rest of the class, you are madly, deeply in love and-slash-or lust with that person, and you want nothing more than to be with that person, not dirty. Okay, you're not really, but I want you all to act like you are to the best of your abilities." "Got that? Rock on."

Billy snickered. "Innocent Pawn." been there, done that "Well see I don't normally fall for girls like you. It's the Innocent part that's throwing me. Maybe I've had to adjust my approach a little."

"Girls like me?" She chuckled slightly. "You make me sound like a plague or something. Not very flattering, Billy."

Billy's smirk widened into a bigger smile. "You're hardly the plague Annette. "I meant nice girls."

"Oh." She blinked. "You don't like nice girls?" Somewhat confused now.

"I didn't say that." Billy said. "I like you for instance."

"But you are supposed to be wooing me." She said with a firm nod.

"That can be a long process." he said. "S'matter? You getting impatient?"

"Impatient, me? Never." And she started humming, staring down at a fingernail.

Billy snickered. "You want I should give you pie?"

"I don't want pie, thank you." She continued humming. If he wanted a good grade, he was going to have to work for it.

"Well then, what do you want?" He continued smiling confidently. it's just for a class, it's just for a class

"For you to get a good grade." She snickered.

Billy snickered as well. "Well, that'd be nice yeah. It's nice that you care so much."

"Friends care, Billy." She glanced at him and hid her giggles. "Boy, it's a good thing this is not a timed exercise."

"Hey if you're just going for a date that's one thing. She told us to pursue someone like we love them. I'm pretty sure that's gotta take longer than a class period."

She blinked. "But she only said for the rest of the class. Not beyond it. Means you have to work fast, Billy." She gave him a coy look. "Don't you know how to work fast?"

"Not with love." he said sincerely. "Attraction? Just a good time? Yeah. Not with love."

All right, that was sweet of him to say. She had to admit his sincerity touched her.

She just thought she had to point out, and she did so leaning towards him, whispering, "We are just supposed to pretend, Billy."

"So should I fast forward to spelling your name on your front lawn with your favorite flower? Except while that may have seemed romantic in the movies saying out loud just kinda sounds creepy."

She studied her nail again. "Really, Billy. Like I am supposed to tell you how to go about this."

Hey nice girls were turning out to be an interesting challenge. "Isn't that part of the wooing process? Asking how I can prove my love? Cause I'll pretend to have done it, whatever it is."

Annette quirked a brow and leaned close, "No, Billy, you are supposed to have all this all worked out. But, we can pretend if you want. It's your grade."

"Well that takes all the spontaneity out." Billy complained. "You make this sound like a military exercise."

She grinned, "Okay Billy, how about you tell me how you want this to be."

Billy thought about it. "In a perfect world," he said finally. "It'd be as simple as saying, I love you. And then preferably you saying I love you too."
