Tien rolled her eyes. "You would, just to spite me." Silently she was thankful he had no where to start from.

"Of course I would have," he confirmed, absolutely unrepentant. What he had managed had been marvelous, and he'd been glad to entertain Asherah at the same time.

"And they say I'm bad." It was more a little ditch effort to survive with her dignity intact than anything else.

"Aww, I'm not bad," he protested. "I just happen to be better at playing games than Nergal, which I daresay isn't difficult to be."

"I'll give you credit, but more than that. Nergal has proved to be somewhat more dull this lifetime." That and he had hardly been around to mess with and that was no fun at all.

Rio laughed. "Has he? I've barely met him, I'm afraid. Then again, I don't think he ever liked me very much."

"I can say with certainty he would rather deal with you than me." She smirked and took another bite from her muffin.
Gul politely excused herself to head back to the kitchen and take care of the cleaning from breakfast then onto other chores.

"Oh, I don't know about that. Have you ever tried to get him to give up a soul?" Rio's memories were few and far between, but he could recall, if vaguely, trying to get the god to give someone their departed love back.

Tien hadn't done quite that...she might have eventually had things fallen out differently. Angmar. It was strange to think of the man after so long. Where was he anyway? "Not exactly. Helping 'heroes' sneak into the Underworld and sneaking into the treasury were more than enough to get on his persona non grata list though. Not to mention what I'm for in general."
She took a sip of her tea. "The one is far too upright and unbending to have a sense of humor."

"I can see where he would object to that," Rio mused, chuckling. "Although I think most gods would object to having their treasury invaded."

"Not sure why he did. It was rather boring, if organized, hardly seemed to be anything useful." Tien shrugged. There had no doubt been useful things buried in there if she knew where to find them. The brief time she had been there though had been to find only one thing, which she found and subsequently lost.

"I imagine dragons have much more impressive hoards." Rio grinned, lightly teasing, but it was probably still true.

"If naught else they are probably far more interesting." She finished off the last of her muffin and tea. "I hate to be rude, but I should probably go change out of this. So, I will remand you back to Asherah's company for a while." The goddess rose from the couch and disappeared upstairs.
"Thank you, for that." Asherah reached out and took his hand, squeezing it gently.

"Not rude at all," he assured her, dipping his head respectfully as the goddess departed.
"It was my pleasure." Rio brought Asherah's hand to his lips and kissed the back of it. "I'm always happy to defend a lady."

The catgirl smiled. "She means well at least, even if it is embarrassing. I did miss it, for the space of time I was without her." Along with the headaches she inevitably caused. It was strange how one grew accustomed to such things. "So, can I ask about your plans for the day?"
