Thunder during snow? Not a good sign. And from experience, thunder was never brought on when the god wielding it was happy. This should not be ignored. Hel rose and went to find the source of the issue. Seeing a gathering crowd outside the library, well...she can do math.

Seth could not only hear the thunder, but smell traces of water in the air. This wasn't natural. Something otherworldly was going down.

"Bastet, watch Meri for me. I need to see what this is."

[blackdestroyer.insanejournal.com]

"What the fuck?"

Kali stared at the weather. Yeah. This was fucking weird. And she could hear shouting. So, she followed the noise, and joined the quickly-growing crowd in the library.

Sigyn came to find the crowd, hear the raised voices. "Hel? What's going on. ... Is Baldr okay?"

Apollo wasn't ever one to want to miss excitement. At the first few rumbles, he headed up to find the group crowding the library, and pressed his way in to get a good view.

Oh, this was rich. Triton was never in a fight.

Drawn by the commotion, Dionysus sidled up behind his brother, watching with interest through the gaps between everybody's heads.

Triton was barely aware of the crowd that had gathered around them, but his expression was as dark as the storm clouds outside.
"Don't you dare tempt me, Northman. You will be answering to me. Every. Single. Order. And you can start by minding your distance with Athena."

[tritonia.insanejournal.com]

As soon as Triton said that she blinked hard. Was he making this about her? "Triton...jeez calm down. Nothing happened." Though she had the distinct feeling that absolutely no one was listening to her. She might as well have been talking to thin air.

[shiningone.insanejournal.com]

Crowd? What crowd? "Try me. For the record, Mer-boy, you might want to start not making this about her. I don't go for girls who are taken. If you're that insecure about your relationship, you need to rethink your priorities, because that'll probably affect your ability to make sound decisions."

[heraldofthedeep.insanejournal.com]

"And you knew she's taken?" Triton countered scathingly.

[shiningone.insanejournal.com]

"I didn't. Not when I first joined this circus, but the fact that you've both been far more sparse than I have the last couple of days lead me to add up some things. Not to mention that she just had to tell you that nothing happened between us because you're losing your shit about her confirms it." He shrugged, folding his arms over his chest. "Like I said. I don't go after girls who are taken, and let's add in the fact my girlfriend was obliterated a few weeks ago... It really takes the flirt out of a person."

[heraldofthedeep.insanejournal.com]

"Good. Don't you dare let anything happen between you and my girl," Triton snapped.

[shiningone.insanejournal.com]

"And as long as she's your girl, you have nothing to worry your pretty head about. But you really might want to start listening to her when she tells you the truth."

[acratophorus.insanejournal.com]

"Okay, okay," said Dionysus, making his way through the crowd with a couple of bottles. "I think we've all enjoyed this heart-to-heart discussion, and both of you look like you need a drink, hey?" He came up beside them, not actually stepping between the two of them yet.

[heraldofthedeep.insanejournal.com]

"Her I trust. You, not so much," Triton hissed, and he whirled on Dionysus.

"This doesn't concern you, wine god."

[acratophorus.insanejournal.com]

"What's gotten into you, anyway?" he replied, taken aback a little. "Why do you give a good goddamn about it anyhow?" He swigged from one of the bottles himself, and narrowed his eyes at Triton. "Or is this being your usual stick-up-your-ass self, huh? I bet this isn't about you and her at all, but just some little tantrum of yours."

[heraldofthedeep.insanejournal.com]

...that did it. There was a flash of lightning so bright, it could be seen through the library doors. And the entire house shuddered with the force of the thunderclap. Any vestige of calm vanished from Triton's face as his handsome features twisted in fury.

"BECAUSE I LOVE HER, DAMN IT!" he shouted.

[tritonia.insanejournal.com]

Her jaw dropped, and she could practically feel her heart stopping for a moment. "....wait...what?"

[inspiredvoice.insanejournal.com]

"HA! I fucking called it!!" She cheered it out. Cuz she so had called it.

[littlebithorny.insanejournal.com]

"Heh. Some guys," Tara manages to say affectionately despite the whole sea-god-screaming thing -- which had not made her flinch, oh no. "Kicks in new gears when they feel messed with."

[speakswithdead.insanejournal.com]

Hades looked completely nonplussed by the outburst. He had been tempted to step in, but perhaps this would resolve itself. It was certainly not a development he had expected.

[venusingucci.insanejournal.com]

Aphrodite gasped, and then she smiled.
"Well, well. Whoever would have guessed?" she asked.

[acratophorus.insanejournal.com]

"Not me, apparently," Dionysus added, picking himself up off the floor and brushing himself off. He stuck a finger in his ringing ear and wiggled it briefly, grimacing. "I didn't think he had it in him, honestly."

[chaos-embodied.insanejournal.com]

"Well this just went to fucking pot in a hurry, and not the good way. I'm going back to check on Meri. See you when you're done, Astarte." Seth grumbled as he left the gathering.

[blackdestroyer.insanejournal.com]

"...What the fuck was that?" Kali asked aloud.
