Quickly 'absorbing' the tail back into it's proper shape as her tail-bone, Delilah asked Athena, "Has this sort of thing happened before- Zeus getting... concerned about his position?"

He was back in his chair, listening to the arguements of two gods and three mortals. This was unbelievable, and on the eve of a very important battle to. "Excuse me!" he said forcefully, "But can one of you tell me what you need to tell me so i can get ready to go?"

Artemis nodded her head answering the question for Athena. " Yes it happens every so often and when he gets paranoid it's best to just find a place to hide and ignore him."

Athena added, "And hope he doesn't try to kill you. In fact, I'm somewhat suprised he kept you alive. Well, maybe it was Hera. She's a little more forgiving than Zeus." She looked over to Kidemonas. "Er...did Ares tell you about the whole sacrificing thing?"

Jasmine looked over to Artemis. "Cool. Is your twin brother the opposite, then? Sun?" Fuzzily, she remembered Artemis's twin brother from a few stray facts she had read about mythology. A...It started with an A. "Apollo?"

Hephaestus sighed and looked down at the ground. "I want to leave now."he sighed. "Never been a people person."he whispered. His ill-tempered attitude was starting to rise again. "And it's simple. You just gotta feel super angry."

Sage smiled sweetly at Hephaestus. " Thank you for coming and I understand you perfectly. I'm not a people person either. Ask my friends. I rarely speak to anyone outside our group of friends. I'll keep that in mind because that mirage will come in handy when we end up doing what we were sent back for."

Artemis nodded her head as she looked at the girl. " Yes my twin's name is Apollo and he's the god of the Sun, Healing, and Music. Also takes after Zeus and is a horrible flirt who doesn't know the meaning of the word No unless I beat it into him or drag him off."

Athena winced. "Oh, sorry, Hephaestus. See you later, and, uh, try to avoid Zeus. I have the feeling he won't be too happy about the whole 'they know we're watching them' thing." Herself, she didn't mind people. Made it a little harder to think and plan with other people, yes, which was why she preferred to be alone with battle planning.

Jasmine laughed. "Ah, so there's guys like that in the God world too. Don't know no means no."

Watching the goat approach Artemis and starting
to bleat, it seemed to Delilah that the goat wanted to talk! It was even doing a comical bow.

Artemis glanced at the goat and raised an eyebrow when she saw it had four horns. " Now what happened to you? I could swear Pan and I never had any four horned goats running around the mortal realms. As for my brother yes. He tries to behave when he's in the same room with me because he doesn't like me hurting him."

The goat appeared to be begging, a rather odd sight to Delilah. It then started to try to balance on its hindlegs before it gave up and looked at Delilah.
She chuckled slightly at the image of Apollo being beaten up by his sister. "It must be pretty tough for you, with Apollo being your brother."

Artemis nodded her head. " Yes it can be trying since I'm the one who makes sure all of his children are born safely. Not to mention I'm the one who keeps him from getting killed by the rest of our siblings. He's my twin and I love him even though I'm constantly trying to keep him in line. I'm sure you'll end up meeting him before long. It's been about a month since I've seen him so that means he'll be showing up soon to check on me and to make sure there are no Men around me."

Athena looked over to Artemis. "Artemis, no harm intended, but I don't think my mental health would be quite sound if Apollo were my brother. Just not very patient, I suppose" She looked at the four-horned goat. "Aw, it's cute in an odd way." Animals were really out of Athena's expertise, and odd animals were known to roam the mortal realm. The Minotaur, for example, and whenever Hades decided to let Cerberus out for a walk.

Artemis smirked. " That's because he's not your twin. When you're twins you find you have a lot more patience with your twin than anything else. I'm sure everyone on Olympus knows I have more patience with Apollo than anything else except hunting."

The goat walked to Delilah and started to nuzzle against her leg, quite similar to how a cat that wants a stroke rubs itself against the legs of its owner. "I reckon I could deal with your brother when the time comes for us to meet him." As Delilah tried to move, the goat moved with her leg, seemingly unwilling to be parted from her. It bleated when Delilah tried to move it away from her feet. "Damn protective Goat." she muttered under her breath.
