Confusion of the Gods!
To say that Argo had been conflicted of late would have been an understatement. Oh, he still ventured out and he still visited bars, but if anyone was paying careful attention to his comings and goings, they would find he had spent virtually every night at home for a while now. He seemed less interested in the fan club, though they still gathered outside daily, and those that were prone to still continued to throw their undergarments. And Argo greeted them cheerily, but if you watched carefully, you could tell his heart was not in it.

In ancient times, mortals prayed to the gods for assistance and guidance in their lives. In modern times, it would seem, the gods, or at least, this particular god, would need to turn to a worshiper for advice.

So. He needed to find Corey.

Corey nods. "Pretty big sudden change, yeah. And you're what, 25?" Of course, tangential to Argo's age was a whole other kettle of fish...

"Twenty-six," Argo told him.

"But aye. The years for Olympians are long and few others walk them. It made it easy, for conquests and partings. But it makes all else harder."

"Right, sorry."

"Yeah, it adds a lot to the whole 'intimidating prospect,' on both ends. But really, Argo, that part's no reason to be afraid of a relationship. I mean, I can't pretend I can understand what having that to look forward to is like, but... y'know, 'monument more lasting than bronze' and all that." Corey, is this really a time to get all....artistic?

Argo closed his eyes and nodded, letting his breath out for a moment.

"Aye. You are right, Corey. The bards sing of love that is timeless, beyond mere mortal spans. If I love, does that love no last so long as I draw breath? Does not the one I loved then live on, in some way?"

Corey nods emphatically. "I'm not saying that makes anything really easy, but if everything was really easy, there wouldn't be a lot of point. And...well..." Corey shrugs. "I'm still no expert, but if you don't try, you might probably regret it for a long time."


Corey pauses for a moment before he says, "The Creme de Papaya's chilling in the fridge, but I'll have the chili ready soon."

Argo nodded, standing as he did so.

"Let it never be said that the Son of Hercules shrank from a challenge," he said. "And affairs of the heart? Well, what greater challenge can there be?"

He seemed to consider something. "I am going to take a short walk to clear my head... but I shall be back in time for dinner."

Corey smiled. "Good!"
