Summary: The sun god is enjoying a bit of sunshine this morning.

Apollo was in his usual cheerful mood. Today seemed a tiny bit warmer than it had been previously, so he was casually strolling around the gardens. He maybe wasn't quite dressed for it, his wardrobe close-fitting today, but what did he care? He looked good, he felt good, and that was all that mattered to him.

She rolls her eyes. "Ain't that the truth," she replies rhetorically.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"Nor is it always reliable," he said with a grin, "For instance, I wasn't warned I'd have such charming and lovely company on my morning constitutional."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She chuckles warmly. "Well aren't you a smooth one. Though to be fair mine didn't tell me there'd be a gorgeous sun god out here either. Visions are odd like that," she teased.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"Aren't they just?" he agreed. "Still, I always welcome the presence of one of the Northern folk. There was a reason I headed up that way every summer."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"Oh, and just why is that," she asked with playful curiosity?

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"Simple. They have a charm and a vibrance one just doesn't find in many Greeks. It's... fascinating," he answered, taking her hand and ghosting a kiss over her fingers.

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"Hate to to break it to you handsome, but I'm only a quarter Northern this time around. Dad's Swedish-German and Mom's Brazilian-Cuban, I'm a bit of mutt." Okay, her breath may have hitched a bit at that.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

He chuckled.
"I'm British through and through, and yet still a Greek at heart," he countered, "Besides, things become far more interesting when a variety mixes together."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"I never would have guessed, your accent is very subdued," she teased. "That's true. I'm told facially I look a lot like my aunt on my dad's side, though in regards to figure I'm totally my mom's child."

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"Oh, I don't have an accent. This is just how things sound when they're properly pronounced," the sun god quipped, and gave Frigg an appreciative once-over.

"Your father is an enviable man, if that's the case."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She smirked, looking him over herself. "You're well put together yourself, but I bet you already knew that. I mean," she circles him a bit. "Walking around in these close-knit clothes." She gives his ass a long, appreciative look. "You know you've got it."

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

The sun god smirked.
"I'm sure you've heard the phrase 'a body like a Greek god'? I happened to be the god in question. The perfect male specimen."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She chuckles throatily. "Damn, you really don't lack for confidence, do you?" She made her way back in front of him, arms crossed in mock seriousness.

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"Is there a reason why I should?" he asked, flashing her a winning smile.

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"I suppose not," she conceded with a shrug. "I imagine your girlfriend doesn't complain. Melpomene, right?"

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

That made him laugh.
"Melpomene? I wouldn't let her hear you call her that. She'd likely give you an earful and then some."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She laughs, a little relieved. Her mother didn't raise no home-wrecker.
"Sorry, I was raised in a fairly conservative household. I'm more used to the idea of one-on-one relationships. Still, I'm learning."

"The Muses have always loved me, and I them. Ever since they were born. But, since I can't have all of them together, I grant them their freedom, and they grant me mine. I know where their true loyalties lie, and they know I will always be there for them if they need me," he said.

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"That's sweet."

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"It works for us," he said, "I just want to see them happy."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She nods. "I want the same for mine. Tyr, Sif, Sigyn, Hel..I want them to be happy."

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"In that case, I'd say you're doing an excellent job," he said kindly, "But what about for yourself?"

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

She sighs, rubbing her eyes once. "Been awhile since I considered doing something for just me."

[aegletes.insanejournal.com]

"No time like the present to change that," Apollo said cheerfully, "It's not like this place lets anything ghastly get to us."

[the-all-mother.insanejournal.com]

"That's true. It's like they made this place specifically to be pleasant for us," she says, stretching a bit, causing her dress to cling a little more to the ample figure she spoke of earlier.
