The Various Gods & You, Monday, First Period
"This week we want to talk to you about what you should do if you, as a mortal, are faced with the possibility of getting involved with the gods," Don told the class. "And, uh, we came to a pretty clear conclusion." He glanced over at Jane. Take it away, god of thunder!
"Don't. Maybe don't?" Jane ventured. "It's a lot."
Her words were underselling it, but her expression? Less so.
Don nodded his agreement. "Just don't," he said. "You never know what's going to happen. You could become an actual god." He gestured to Jane. "You could be erased from reality entirely." He gestured to himself. "You could be impregnated by whatever Zeus decided to be that week. So just don't." To Jane, he added, "Present company excluded, of course."
"Not planning on going anywhere near Zeus," Jane replied, still iffy on if he was real back home or not. "So, that's the solid advice we're giving you all this week. Even if they're really nice and good looking. Remember the risks involved."
Hopefully no one had seen Thor shirtless to ruin this entire lesson.

Discuss!
He was a little scared of how Dean
if he was presentwas going to answer.Re: Discuss!
He sighed, leaning back. "Look, gods, present company excluded, they don’t play fair. They don’t owe you anything, and they definitely don’t see us as equals. Getting involved with one? You're pretty much signing up to be part of some cosmic soap opera. They drag you into their fights, and they don’t care what that does to you.”
He paused, frowning a bit. “As for Pros? (And again... present company excluded.) Maybe you get little help when you need it, if they’re feeling generous. But gods aren't exactly known for keeping their promises unless it benefits them or entertains them in some sort of sick puppet show kind of way. "
