Phorcys was grinning like a fool even before Mellinae called him beautiful. Beautiful? Him? A rough hunter like himself? Still, the notion that she thought so made him unbelievably happy. He'd never even known he'd cared about such a thing, but hearing it with the playful shove of his shoulder welled up warm feelings in his chest.
If he noted her sudden slurring, he didn't react to it. Or maybe he didn't notice. He was swimming, so to speak, in the happy feelings brought about by this evening, and it had only just begun as far as he was concerned. Was she having as much fun as he was? He needed to share this happiness and it had been his intended goal that she have a nice time tonight. She seemed to be having a good time.
He blinked a bit at the punch, rubbing his arm lightly out of reflex, then grinning again. Ah what a relief! Clearly she wasn't just some delicate flower...not that she wasn't beautiful as one, because she was. But he was a rough and tumble hunter sort of guy and well, he may not have always been as confident as he seemed around well...fine ladies. Always worried about saying or doing the wrong thing, but if she was letting the wall slip down just a bit...
Another wave of happiness washed over him and grinning, he reached for her hand. "What do you say? Do we stay here for a while or go take a look around at what else there is to see? I want to do whatever you want to do!"

What in Telrunya? The commotion was hard to miss and Cabel relaxed a bit when Zinerva returned unharmed from the odd fountain. "Err, I think I'll give that one a pass," he agreed, shaking his head at the unfolding events. Okay, seems some were getting a little carried away already. Perhaps too much to drink. On that note...
"Maybe I'll just start with water, then get something else later," he commented to Zin, chuckling a bit. Best to keep one's head if others were losing theirs already. He stepped away for just a moment to get a glass of water from the appropriate fountain, then returned to chuckle at Zin's puzzled look and childish antics. Not that he was any surer than she about the contents of the cup she'd retrieved. "Are you...sure that's for drinking?" he laughed, then looked back to the previous fountain. Ignoring the Pae being helped out of the fountain itself, he noticed tables nearby that held cups and varying types of food. "Oh hey, looks like bread and other food over there. I think you're supposed to dip food into it and eat it?" he suggested. Curious.

Venus shifted away from Persephone and snarled at her. She crushed the champagne flute in her hand and pounded the arm of her throne with the other hand. "Dammit" she muttered. Persephone's presence elicited another side eye. "Why are you here? Come to gloat?"
The Goddess of Love stood up and bounced a curly lock of hair with the back of the hand that wasn't bleeding and simply shouted. It was so loud, everyone in the town would likely hear her. "NOW!"
---
Her children, the first generation erotes will know what that means without further explanation. Do not keep Mother waiting.
Eros and Anteros, Himeros and Pothos, Dylo, Iordanes, and Hymnaios. And the Graces; Thalia, Euphrosyne, and Aglaia and not to forgot her Spartan girls, Phaenna and Kleta.
Harmonia, Shansa, Seneca, and Serenity would be called as well, but the three younger daughters would still be under the influence so might need a little help.

 Reentering the main hall created a breath taking difference. The energy and emotion the glowstick and goat-thing brought wasn't more evident then the moment she stepped out of it. Had there been any less self control she might have heaved for air.
No time for that.
Trusting her little sister to come along, Harmonia released the teen. Partly because if she fell with her unsteady walk the last thing she wanted to do was taken the younger with her. Instead she rolled her shoulders back, held her head high and walked with purpose, her other hand holding on to the wall as she moved. Maybe it would look like she was doing that on purpose it was somewhat elegant looking. At least in her head.
As much speed as she could muster without feeling worse, Harmonia made her way to her mother's side keeping her eye on the shifting form of Persephone, that was probably more her vision as the spell seemed to be burning off. Thanks Pothos.
Phaenna and her son were already there, she still wanted to know who the father was and how she missed him...This wasn't the time. Should trouble arise it was good to have one Spartan and another in training there. Before long the others would arrive, no one ignored Venus and lived to show their grace. Rather then announce herself, she took a place to the side and slightly behind the throne offering a more serious nod to both Phaenna and her son.

The rest of the night had been a blur for Pothos and he wasn't even sure where he was anymore.
Except that he was with that handsome blue mortal and man did he-----
Chills ran down Potho's spine as something seemed to click in his mind. His eyes snapped wide open as he sat back and glanced around him, blinking several times as if that would change his atmosphere from the cheese stained surroundings he currently was in.
Glancing down back at the mortal before back up towards the sound of an all too familiar voice.
Heart suddenly pounding, Pothos flung himself to his feet, putting an end to the one nighter the mortal had finally won. Not fully back to his senses yet, Pothos paused only to say one thing. Or rather, scream it.
"MOM!"
As if that were enough of an explanation, slash, apology, Pothos grabbed up his drapes and bow, fighting to tie one back around his waist and the other over his shoulder as he ran full speed, wings flared, cheese flinging in every direction. He didn't even care if he knocked someone out of the way, this was his mom summoning him. He didn't dare ignore! Not even for...well....cheese mishaps!
Skidding to a halt near his mother, he paused to catch his breath and run his hands through his now messy black curls. He heaved a moment or two before doing his best to give his mother his fill attention. Hands on his hips where his bow now awkwardly hung. He reached for the drapes over his shoulder, grabbing an arrow to string into it....
....wait.....
DAMN IT HE HAD THEM BACKWARDS!
DaemonGabrielle Sooooo sorry! Mamma called!

Over by the buffet, having seen his brother off towards the suites with his 'friend', Himeros was perusing the selections. He kept shooting an amused glance towards the cheese fountain and the poor cherubs stuck cleaning up the mess.
Worth.
Of course, the rest of the fountains were likely spiked as well. If he knew his family, and he certainly did, then the reason some of the mortals seemed to be acting a bit out of character likely lay in what had been added to the fountains. He'd been watching carefully while making his rounds at the party and he shot a glance now towards the chocolate fountain, fairly sure of who had gotten to it and pretty sure what the result would be. Also, he loved chocolate.
"Eh, what the hell?" he chuckled, dipping a strawberry into the sweetness and taking a bite. The rush of happiness was tempered by the sharp shout that cut through the party air.
Uh oh. Trouble.
All he could do was chuckle about it though as he hurried to answer the call. He hadn't noticed any real trouble this year; his mother was probably just on another of her--
The sight of curved horns following after a glowing beauty through the crowd was sobering. Ah crap. Most of his siblings likely wouldn't recognize or realize what the presence of such individuals meant, but Himeros did. His twin might if not distracted otherwise, or their two elder brothers, but they would have had to have seen them as well. Perhaps it was their similar sorts of natures, but Himeros had certainly taken notice of the satyrs' chase.
Well, crap, this was bad. Or could be.
Understanding the possible reason for the summon, Himeros hurried along, though the happiness from the spiked chocolate was tempering any serious thoughts he could have had on the situation. Back in the lobby before his mother's throne, he noted the gathering retinue as well as the new guests alongside Venus. Persephone, one of her Furies. He took a moment to stare at the dark goddess in thought. Always so cold. If only she would let someone bring a little warmth into her life, or at least her chambers--
Ah ah, Himeros. What would Mother think of those thoughts about her dear frienemy?
Chuckling to himself, Himeros only grinned and aimed a quick wink at the goddess of the underworld before snapping to attention to hear what further instructions his mother had.
