[ The room is pink. Pink, gold, and are those fluffy, clever bunnies-the-size-of-imps running around adjusting the statues? Might be. ]

Hey! Goddess of Love speaking! Pay attention. [ She's curvaceous, tall, and dressed in enough chiffon that you'd think physics would keep her covered up, and yet. ] Hi-iiii. My name is Aphrodite, you might know me by a bunch of other things.

Obviously this place is like Ares's wet dream with all the war biz going on, but that's not my jam. Love would be the name of my game. Problem is, I don't have anywhere for mortals to leave messages for me when I'm busy and I am so not answering calls for help on this locket indefinitely because, uh, I have a life, so here's the deal; build me a temple near the edge of Dorchadas and I'll give you a freebie. That babe you've had your eye on? I'll make them fall in love with you! Are you ugly as a toad? I'll give you a permanent make-over! This is a one-time thing because I'm feeling generous ... and clearly don't have any offerings coming in, ugh. Speaking of, if you want to leave cute shoes as a gift, I'm a size six.

So yeah! Get in touch.

A few questions for clarity's sake, if you'll humor me.

What kind of 'shrine' do you need? Do you have to be able to visit it? Would you be adverse to something located in a place designed to facilitate physical intimacy?

[The world had just ended. Damon was being diplomatic. Stop the presses.]

I don't need it, I just want it, and if you think I'd mind having it in the middle of a red-light district then I'm going to laugh with all the gusto of the Hydra.

[ Hmmm, have a wink. ]

Usually it's just super comfortable inside with golden statues of moi, lots of floor-cushions and extra rooms for worshippers who want to pay their respects other than putting an offering on the table.

[withbite]

So... if I happened to have a little shrine built into one of the little waterfall alcoves that was for semi-private yet public trysts...? What exactly might I get out of this, aside from the love offer? I'm not really looking for a soulmate.

[halfdressed]

A better question would be, what do you want to get out of it, babe?

[withbite]

What I want? Well... that might get me slapped. Could be worth it.

[halfdressed]

Speak your mind, hot stuff, I'm hard to shock.

[withbite]

Let's just say that you're very easy on the eyes and I've been here a while.

[halfdressed]

Ahw, you poor thing. I don't just roll around in the chariot with anyone, y'know, and I don't barter myself for temples.

[withbite]

Well, considering I'm not just 'anyone'... but, let's tuck that aside for now and I'll try to convince you in person to change your mind. What other benefits could one get that don't involve people swooning as I walk by. That already happens.

[No, really. It did. Ask Fernando.]

[halfdressed]

Well, I'm not gonna start reeling off ancient scrolls and crusty advice like Athena, if you're angling for something drastic.

[withbite]

I was thinking more something helpful. Maybe financially beneficial. If you have some sort of magic woo-woo, what would you say to coming by my business on certain dates and... spreading that around? Not yourself, but whatever witchy-juju you have that could make people feel good. Or more prone to enjoying themselves and spending money to do so.

[Plus, there might be a draw to having a love goddess make appearances that could get him more clientele.]

[halfdressed]

For a temple? [ Hmmm. Hmmmm. ] Yeah, okay, I can do that. Just being around mortals is usually enough to send them woo-woo.

[ As he puts it. ]

[withbite]

We'll have to work out a guest appearance schedule, then. Goddess of Love night; half off pink passion martinis.
