Word came to him that the godlings had dithered around enough. It was time for them to go home and get on with it. Right! Nigel had his orders and he was nothing if not efficient.

He took the initiative to put into play Evacuation Protocol #57. Everything in his guests' rooms suddenly ceased to work. Lights went out. Televisions and computers turned off on their own. Even the water taps stopped functioning, and all of it suddenly. If they were outside of their room their key no longer opened doors, except for those of the elevator bay and then the elevators would take them only to the lobby.

He straightening the cap on his head, smoothed the lapels of his jacket then brushed imaginary lint from his sleeves. He was prepared for the ensuing confrontations.

He leaned down and into the kiss, feeling the soft sweetness of her mouth against his own. A flood of almost electric tingles flooded through him as their lips met; he couldn't tell if it was because of who she was, or the heightened emotions of the situation, but he definitely wanted more.

Still, he knew this wasn't exactly the best time or place for anything further, despite his own desire. Reaching down to take her hand gently as he pulled back, he softly said "Many thanks... and I'll find you when we're all home."

He slowly let go of her hand, smiling rakishly as he stepped backwards through the portal.

Damn, but she'd forgotten how intoxicating his kisses could be. Ariadne was a little breathless when he pulled back.

"All right, see you around," she said before he disappeared.

Gawain pantomimed applauding and gave Ariadne the thumbs-up through the glass. It was refreshing to see moments of genuine affection, even during a strenuous situation.

He noticed Aphrodite, enticing in her semi-sheer robe, surrounded by the remaining men in the lobby. He turned back to Ariadne, shrugged, and then doffed his fedora to Aphrodite.

"Milady?"

[venusingucci.insanejournal.com]

"Is it my turn already?" she asked sweetly, stepping up to the door.

"Thank you, dear knight," she said, dipping her head in gracious acknowledgment.

Medusa's disrespectful escape did not go unnoticed by Poseidon. Though his attentions had been on Aphrodite, his sneer of disapproval watched Medusa snake her way through giving attentions to the sun god that she had dared before. Poseidon wad jealous by nature, and he'd long ago claimed that pretty gorgon dame.

When Dite stepped up to the plate to walk out with her escort he stepped up right behind her with a devious smirk. "Goig somewhere?" he asked her slipping in with them. It may have been a tight squeeze, but he wasn't about to let but one of his women escape without him.

When he returned Medusa would find out how quickly and jealous he could get.

"I believe she is trying to go home, good sir," Gawain said to Poseidon, somewhat more firmly than usual.

[venusingucci.insanejournal.com]

"Now, now, boys," Aphrodite said, flaring her calming power as the three of them wedged into the spot together, "We can all share, can't we?"

[greengawain.insanejournal.com]

With some less-than-appealing images of "sharing" flashing through his mind, Gawain eased and began to laugh.

[enosichthon.insanejournal.com]

Poseidon put his arm around Aphrodite's hip. He may be up for sharing Aphrodite, but he wasn't about to be left out. Especially not with this golden boy of chilvary.

"Got a problem with it?" he said his voice a low growl.

[greengawain.insanejournal.com]

"I'm not sure. Have you?" Gawain asked, tensing a bit.

Does anyone else notice that Hugh and Richard look a lot alike?

[enosichthon.insanejournal.com]

"Not at all," he said with a smug grin. He turned sideways, pressing Dite against him so the fit would be more comfortable.

"How about you, sweetheart? Comfortable?" he spoke in a deep undertone.

Yes, yes they do! XD

[venusingucci.insanejournal.com]

"Yes, quite, my darling," she said with a soft giggle, her body molding easily to the familiar form of Poseidon.

Perhaps Poseidon and Gawain are long-lost brothers?

[greengawain.insanejournal.com]

"Well, please be sure to keep your hands and arms inside the revolving doors at all times," Gawain said. "Not that it appears to be a consideration for you two," he added with a wink.

It's a mystery! Only Poseidon has the bigger nose

Poseidon pressed her closet, his hand resting against Aphrodite's back. Her gave her a little tap. "Careful, baby. You've got delicate goods parked up against you." He gave her a grin.

I die of laughter here and now if that's the case. XD

[venusingucci.insanejournal.com]

"Indeed not," Aphrodite said, holding close to Poseidon, even as they exited the portal together.

It was Sif's turn again next.

"Ok, who'd like to go through this time?" she asked. She tried to catch Odin's eye, but a dark-haired young man she didn't recognize walked up wordlessly with a haughty expression. "...I'm guessing you're my next passenger, hmm?"

[amour-propre-1.insanejournal.com]

Narcissus looked the blonde up and down with a sneer in his expression and chin held high. She was the prettier of the two women, not that he cast any interest, simply who would benefit him the most in exiting this ridiculous set up. None of them greatly appealed to him, this one seemed the likliest choice if only because she had some features that were better than others. Not that she compared at all to him.

He spoke not a word but stepped up ready to go. He wasn't interested in formalities. They were useless as she had nothing to offer him but an exit.

[amberwaveograin.insanejournal.com]

"...right," Sif muttered, and she took him around through the portal, trying to project dignity through the rather awkward silence.

It was Apollo's turn again.
"Next!" he called out with a grin.
