Of the Gods

Don't go soft on me now, trickster

"I'm just saying," he explains. "You keep me on my toes. I've missed having something like that over the millennia."

You're skeptical, but he seems to mean it. 

"Whatever you say," you reply with a wink.

Just then, the doors open, your boss standing in your path.

"What are you two doing here?" he questions.

Behind him, you can see a celebration being held. There is a feast lined up, and the characters in this room are dressed in more futuristic, royal-looking attire than what you're allowed to wear when working in your department. On the table, a whole cooked pig lies with an apple in its mouth. Compared to the people in the room, it's roughly the size of one of them. A towering cake sits at the end of the table. On top of it, a banner reads "Congratulations Zeus!"

After peeking around him, your gaze returns back to his humongous face. 

"Well, you know, we heard about the great promotion from the Man Upstairs...figured we'd come congratulate you, considering I was once part of your original team back in the day. Of course, from past experience, I knew an invite was unlikely, so being proactive, I figured I'd just invite myself! How do you like them....apples?"

"And what's your boyfriend doing here?"

Loki feels compelled to chime in. "Moral support! That's what you do right? I'm sure you wouldn't understand that though, considering you've got your wife, ex-wife, and OOOH is that another one in the back there? All in the same room? THE AUDACITY!"

The women he pointed two all stand up from their seats looking perturbed. 


Tap Loki on the shoulder and set him back on track
