Adonis thought on what Aphrodite had said. He could think of some responses, but could also think of some reasons not to voice them, looking over at Hephaestus. He thought Heph's answer was curious, not believing him. He decided to speak up after all.

"Maybe you'ge got the right idea", he told Aphrodite. "It might not be by chance that it's us three all together. We are connected in ways, even more than just all having a connection to Olympus. If we're being honest, I could think of some things we could offer each other, to put it in your words." Not wanting to be misunderstood, he added, "Just being able to all get along with each other. To reconnect."
