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

When the students came into class, again being held in the Danger Shop, which was set up to look like a temple amongst some labyrinthine ruins, Ares was playing with a bow and looking far too pleased with himself.

"Afternoon, class," he said. "Today we are going to be talking about two gods who were once very near and dear to me. Their names were, oh, one moment, I have more class appropriate clothing for my TAs," he said, tossing clothing to Krycek and Sam. "Go, put those on."

After waiting for them to get changed, Ares continued. "The two gods I'm talking about today were called Strife and Discord, what they were god and goddess of should be clear from their names, being minor deities, both of them were once in my employ, helping me with the business of being the God of War. Strife," he gestured at Sam. "Apart from being completely incompent at actually doing his job, Strife was everything you could ask for in a lackey, at least until he got killed by that lunatic Callisto."

"Discord." Now Ares pointed at Krycek. "If not as slavishly loyal as Strife, still had her advantages, killer dress sense being one of them, but sadly she also shared Strife's habit of contiually screwing up. For example, this weapon I'm holding here is the Bow of Artemis, and when you get shot with it, it turns you into animal, or if you're an animal it turns you human. Now, Discord got it into her head to shoot my half-brother with the bow, turned him into a pig, and that was a barrel of laughs, unfortunately, she let a couple of pesky mortals get their hands" An arrow magically appearing as he drew the string back, Ares fired the bow at Krycek. "And, well, that happened."

Where Krycek had been standing, there was now a leather clad rooster.

"Now the only way to turn him back into a human is with the bow, and I hope for young Mr Krycek's sake that Miss Carter here is better at her job than Strife was, as I'm not just going to give it to her," Ares said. "You have half the class to help you get the bow, and the other half are going to protect it from you. Good luck."

And with that, Ares vanished into the ruins.

Krycek? So not pleased. And a cranky rooster is nothing to laugh at, unless you have a desperate wish to be scratched.

[ooc: going to bed soon, but will reply to any chicken taunting pings when I get up!]

Lana came in and went up to Ares a bit nervously. "Excuse me, Sir. I'm Lana Lang and I'm Jim Ellison's roommate. He's quite sick and won't be able to make class today."

She was thinking outloud, "Well, one of us could always try an seduce Ares, you know, and snatch the bow. Or one seduces and distracts him, and another moves in to snatch the bow." Hey, it could work.

Annette shrugged a shoulder, managing to look a little sheepish.

Kawalsky gave rooster-Krycek a thumbs up. There were jokes, but they were just too easy.

"I think we'll need to protect the bow by sending someone to take them all out. This'll need a sacrifice from one of us. I think Harkness should do it."

"You're welcome," Lana said. "If there's anything he needs to do to make up the class just let me know and I'll make sure he gets it."


[OOC: Welcome. She's hoping to be back on-line tomorrow or Saturday.]
