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

[sideburnsofwar.livejournal.com]

Looking completely unfazed by the fact he was now not so much a god as a goddess, Ares addressed the class. "Today's class is on Hades, Lord of the Underworld, and what we on Olympus liked to refer to as a loser."

He leant back against his desk. "Don't be fooled by the whole Vice Principal thing, as gods go, he's pretty much a joke, on his watch dead souls were always escaping, being missorted, taking the place over, and more than that, he was whipped. Seriously whipped. He let his mother-in-law set the terms of his marriage. I mean really, no booty six months out of the year?"

"So today's activity is to dicuss the various ways in which Hades is a loser." He looked around the much more female class and grinned. "Then make out with each other."

"Yeah, no. I already have one Greek 'god' to annoy."

"Hades sucks! Save the whales!" Blair stood up and shouted with a big, wide grin.

"He's the vice principal, and I really don't think this is appropriate for class," says Hermione. Because she's no fun like that.

"And I don't want to get kicked out of this school, too," Jim muttered, folding her arms across her chest and slouching down in her chair.

Hermione's trying to be polite and not gape, which is why she nods without directly looking anywhere actually near Jim.

Jim scowled. It wasn't quite as effective as usual, but she couldn't help it. She slunk lower in the chair.

Okay, maybe one really quick look, just in case she's just a new girl who hasn't been in this class before.

Jim pinchd the bridge of her nose. ". . . I'm Jim," she sighed.

"Oh, all right," she says slowly, still trying hard not to be rude. Or at least, no ruder than she has been. "I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you."

"Don't blame you," she muttered. "Neither did Lana."

"Um. If you don't mind me asking," Hermione begins, "why are you a girl, exactly?" Along with half the class. Though Ares seems cool with it.

She buried her face in one hand. "I don't know, I just woke up like this."

"Oh. Well, I'm sure it'll wear off soon enough," she tries.

"If there is a merciful God," she mumbled, casting a look towards their teacher. "Not one with boobs and a sadistic sense of humour."

"Yes, because authority is always given only to the competant and deserving." Billy sniffed.

"Aren't you guys supposed to pick on the other pantheons?" Sam asked.

"Hades was god of the underworld and now herds rebellious teenager.

Sounds like a loser to me."

What that implied about Ares went completely unsaid.

"His head is on fire," Valentine offered. "Which suggests that he regularly has bad hair days and would much rather simply purge his scalp entirely than attempt to reign it all in."
Or something.

Evie shook her head vehemently. "Um, I don't know him well enough to come up with any good insults. Assuming he's still a him."
