The Gods and Goddesses party was already and ready to start waiting for the first guest to arrive. There was a big fireplace in the heart of the party with chairs and a couch all around the fireplace. There was a coffee table so guests could sit down and talk around the warm fireplace. There were tents with a few tables so you would be able to eat dinner whenever you wished. When you did want dinner, there were silver and gold plates and goblets, (silver for the goddesses and gold for gods), to grab and whatever you wanted would appear on your plate or in your cup. If you were a tad hungry there was another tent with tables of all kinds of party snacks you could think of in gold and silver bowls. There was soft music playing to make the party calm and comforting. At the entrance Aphrodite stood in her sequin white dress and her heels with her dark brown hair curled and pulled back into a clip. She had a few bracelets on and had some makeup on, but was smiling from ear to ear as she waited for her first party guest to arrive.

Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt, Maiden Girls and Moon
Night Came On, And A Full Moon Rose High Over The Trees, Lighting The Land Till It Lay Bathed In Ghostly Day. And The Strain Of The Primitive Remained Alive And Active, Faithfulness And Devotion, Things Born Of Fire And Roof Were His, Yet He Retained His Wildness And Wiliness, And From The Depths Of The Forest, A Call Still Sounded.
Oh how Artemis was wishing she had thought a little more about this Olympus Party before she had sent back her reply to Aphrodite's invitation. It wasn't like she hated the idea of a party for the Gods and Goddess' of Olympus (Actually, she did), but the hunting Goddess knew full well that Aphodite was very much her opposite. She didn't have much love for anything other than makeup and clothes and love. Whereas Artemis had little to no interest in makeup or the clothes she wore. And, being the Goddess of Maiden's.... she had no liking for love. That subject was best left to the frivalous Goddess Aphrodite. It was bad enough that she now had an oblegation to attend the party, but to add in the fact that the love Goddess was the host.. it was enough to make the redhead want to find someway- anyway at all- to get out of it.
She had seriously considered turning up dressed in her hunting clothes- a silver colored top with jeans and boots- and stay looking how she did in her Camp and with her Hunters. She didn't care that her arms and legs had been bruised and cut after a hunt, or that her clothes were stained and ripped, or that her auburn hair looked disheaveled. They were trivial things- what mattered was that they found what they had been hunting and brought it down. Artemis hadn't really wanted to go to the party at all, so to change her whole appearance just to suit the formal attire Aphrodite had commanded... well it seemed like a big waste of time. However, she had decided against it in the end, knowing that to prevent any sort of conflict (Even if it was only with the Goddess of Beauty over how she looked), she needed to dress in the appropiate clothes of someone who belonged on Olympus. She had decided to wear a dress which, while she felt very uncomfortable in it, seemed to give the "formal" air which she was aiming for. It was as short as one of the tunics she had worn hunting, falling to her knees, and she had obviously gone for something in the color of her hunters clothes, silver. It shimmered when she moved, and the sequins which were sown on the top half caught the light when she turned. Her shoes were very simple, and instead of going for heels (Which she would have found even more uncomfortable than the dress) she had worn white sandals. She had also worn a pair of silver earrings, a bracelet which went up about four inches on her right arm and silver bangles which jingled merrily on her left arm. Her hair had also changed drastically after she had left her Hunters for the night, and instead of being long and messy it was now shorter, neat, and looked like it had been cared for rather than the opposite. She kept nervously running her fingers through the auburn strands, so unused to the length and neatness.
It didn't take her any time at all to reach the destination of the party... and when she arrived, Artemis was pleasently surprised. The whole place glowed with a warm light, and where she had been expecting dancefloors and streamers and balloons, there was a much more mature setting. The scene in front of her was one which she hadn't expected at all. Although, given the host, she didn't have high hopes for the rest of the night.
It wasn't hard to spot Aphrodite in the crowd. The air which she had was unmistakeable when you grew near her, and once you saw her you just knew. She was more beautiful than any other person, even if it was easy for Artemis to ignore that fact. She didn't care for looks, but the love Goddess did. Tonight she was dressed in a short white dress, her hair down in curls, and even Artemis would have admitted if you had asked her in that moment, that Aphrodite definitely deserved her title of Goddess of Beauty. Walking towards her, the auburn haired Goddess soon stood in front of her. She was visibly uncomfortable in her dress, and it didn't help that the other Goddess was that little bit taller than her. 'Aphrodite. Thank you for your invitation,' Artemis spoke in a regal, clipped tone of voice, 'I was more than a little surprised.' Looking around, her green eyes studying the room, she returned her gaze to the other Goddess. 'The venue... is nice.'

athena goddess of wisdom and battle strategy
Athena was completely out of her element. She wasn't the type of person who took pleasure in social events. While she did enjoy an intelligent conversation, a party was not something on her To Do list. However, Aphrodite had been very civil lately, and Athena felt obligated to attend the gathering. Athena stepped into the venue quietly. She'd dressed in what she had deemed appropriate for the occasion. Her dress was grey, with a black collar and tie around her waist. She adjusted her spectacles, which were modeled after a famous British singer's own pair. Though Athena's vision was practically perfect in every way, she enjoyed slipping on a pair of glasses from time to time. She reached Aphrodite, and was realized to see Artemis was there as well. Like Athena, she was a maiden. She felt more comfortable around her because of that. Though, she always did wonder how the goddess felt about her still having children. "Why hello there," Athena greeted with confidence. She tried to always speak proudly, even if she was in an awkward position.

East River Minor God of New York's East River -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Parties are not East River's thing. Interaction with people other than Hudson River, are also not his thing. So as he mills around the outside of the venue, he wonders why is he here? It's most likely because he was shocked to receive an invitation. Most of time the other gods tend to forget that he exists, after all compared to all of them, even the minor gods, he is a minor god.
Taking a deep breath, East shoves his hands in his pockets, and walks through the door. Right away he is amazed by the decorations. Aphrodite had outdone herself, the venue is well amazing. Especially compared to what, he is used to. "Dang this place looks nice"he says letting out a whistle. Grinning, he walks around a bit, observing the decorations.
Soon, East reaches the food table and his smile only gets wider. Looking over the wide selection, his mouth starts to water. He has never seen so much, good looking food in his life. Where does he begin? He figures that he should try to sample a bit of everything, and if he really likes something, he can go back and get more.
Picking up a plate, East starts to fill it with little samples of all the dishes. He then picks up his silverware, and starts to sample the food. The first thing he tries is a sort of stuffed pepper. After finishing his bite, he puts it back on the plate, not bothering to finish the rest. It's good, but not that good. He picks up a stuffed mushroom, and tries that, it ends up next to the pepper. The next item he picks up is a grilled cheese truffle thing. Deciding that it looks promising, he takes a bite and smiles as he tastes it. He finishes the rest of it, and makes a mental note to get more. East then continues to sample the food.
Deimos Minor god of fear -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deimos looks at his reflection in the mirror, and smiles. He looks good enough for the party, right? Aphrodite can not expect him to show up in some tuxedo or something like that. His dress pants, plaid shirt, and sport coat is fancy enough. Hopefully she will be happy that he didn't show up in jeans. Dressing up is just not something he enjoys doing, going to parties also falls under that category. But life has been dull, and he needs some excitement. Plus, he hears the food should be amazing.
With a snap of his fingers, Deimos disappears in a flash of light. He then slowly reappears at the entrance to the party. Putting on a smile, he walks through the door. He stops when he notices Aphrodite, and smiles lightly. "Wow, you've outdone yourself Aphrodite"he says as he looks around the venue. He's not one for decorating, but it does look rather fancy. Fancy in the sense, that he does not want to break something for the fear of what might happen.
After a while he moves on, looking around at the decorations, and not at the people. He is so distracted that he manages to walk into another party goer. "Watch where you're walking, will you?"he says trying to sound nice? He is not the type of person to say sorry, so even though it was his own fault, he is trying to blame it on the other person, while still trying to sound nice.

Aphrodite Goddess of Love and Beauty
Aphrodite looked at clock. She was waiting for her first party guest to arrive. Some many scenarios had popped into her head. What if no one came? What if it was only her and one more god or goddess? Then a guest came. Aphrodite smiled from ear to ear. She was just so excited. "Hello Artemis." She said calmly, trying to keep her excitedness inside her. "I'm glad you could come." She said with a soft smile and did a small bow to her. Usually, she wouldn't bow to other goddesses, but she did want her party to start off at a bad note. "I like your dress, Artemis. Why would you be surprised? I couldn't not invite only one goddess." She said looking at her silver dress. Then Athena came. She smiled even wider. "Hello Athena I'm so glad you could come." She said and also did a small bow to her. "I hope it's not just us, that would be a tad sad. But it would be a girl's night. So I guess it wouldn't be that bad." She said and shrugged, getting a bit jumpy. They could've talked about girl things, but she was the only goddess here who wasn't a maiden goddess.
Finally, Deimos and East River appeared, she bowed to them. "Deimos. East River. I'm delighted you could come." She said and gently flipped her curled hair. "Thank you Deimos. I'm glad you think so." She smiled. "I have things planned for us later." She told Artemis and Athena with a mischievous smile.

She tried to smile nicely for Aphrodite, but it was likely that the smile came out a little pained. She had no true dislike for the Love Goddess, but she also had no true liking for her either. She often found the other Goddess one dimensional, and it was very rare she showed another side to herself in Artemis' company. If she had, Artemis might have found it easier to believe Aphrodite had more than one layer- but as it was, she found that difficult to believe. She was also rather shocked that Aphrodite would bow to her. In all fairness, she did spend most of her time in the form of a young maiden, and it was hard for any person so show respect to someone as young as she looked, but even in her Olympus form, she was not used to the Love Goddess bowing. Although she wasn't shocked enough that she couldn't speak. 'Well, you did command formal wear for this event, did you not?' she pulled at the side of the dress absently, finding herself uncomfortable (again), 'The dress was as formal as I could find.' Again, she flashed that slightly pained smile. 'It was just a shock that I would be invited to such an event. Not that I'm complaining,' at least not out loud.
Artemis glanced around the sound of another pair of footsteps, turning her head to find that Athena had made her way over. The other Goddess had a grey dress on, with glasses which the Hunting Goddess knew were only for show. Athena had perfect eyesight- she had no need for glasses. 'Hello Athena. It has been quite some time since we last spoke...' Artemis said, her voice just as proud as Athena's had been.
Artemis inclined her head to Deimos and East River as they arrived, not acknowledging them too much, but also not ignoring them (Which was an improvement.) She didn't make any sort of move to speak to them and greet them properly, but she acknowledge their existence, at least. Looking back to Aphrodite, she gave the other Goddess a puzzled look. 'What sort of things?' she asked, with a definite tone of someone who was both curious and suspicious.

Vroooooooom!
Hell yes. Ares freaking loved that sound. And while it might have broken the eardrums of anyone within a mile radius, he didn't give a damn. He had a mean harley - wasn't that enough of an excuse to show off? Smirking as the engine died down, Ares swung his leg off the motorcycle and planted both feet on the ground, uncomfortably pulling on the collar of his tux. Tch, formal wear. What he wouldn't give to be all gangster and have his bulletproof vest on right now (which, by the way, was taking the form of a black tuxedo for this party). Aphrodite would give him hell though. She would've considered it rude, and he of all gods should know how unforgiving of rudeness the goddess was.
He pulled his sleeve up to glance at his watch. He was late. Just a tad late. But he didn't mind, because he planned to be so. What was more fun than walking into a room full of people and turning his aura up at max? Making everyone angry and itching for a fight... hell yes. Ares almost laughed just thinking about it. Giving his coat one last tug, Ares threw open the doors.
But it wasn't quite what he expected.
I mean, sure it was pretty and classy and formal-looking, but where were the people? The gods and the goddesses? There was only a handful around, which completely took Ares by surprise. He'd been expecting to arrive to a full house! And watch them all fight! Maybe he should have come at an even later time. His eyebrows rose above the shades perched on the bridge of his nose. He couldn't deny that he was a tad irked when he saw that his plan was foiled.
Masking his disappointment with cool indifference, Ares strode across the room in all his glory. He spied some minor god sampling the delicacies and paid him no heed. Must be one of the river gods. He had only just spotted Aphrodite (conversing with Athena and Artemis, how surprising) and was only on the way to meeting her (thank Zeus the old cripple wasn't around) when someone bumped into him.
"Watch where you're going, will you?" the man said, earning an eyebrow-raise from Ares. Perhaps his aura was working its magic.
"Well," he said with a smirk, tipping his shades up to expose the flame-filled sockets underneath, "maybe you should learn to respect your old man, Deimos."
