An OUTRAGEOUS Revelation!
Irina having dropped him off, Argo felt the need to visit his friends and fellow gods of the Defenders. It had already been a good time since his return to the mortal realm (though he had been unusually quiet in discussing what, exactly, had caused him to leave Olympus). He had drank many beers, he had told many stories, and he had been with many women.

Some of the fangirls had been rather enthusiastic about his return.

But for now, he wished to see his other friends. He'd heard there had been a baby born while he was gone. To Svalin, no less! He'd thought her only slightly less frigid than Asleif, unable to be warmed even by the Lion Cub of Olympus. Who could have reached her so? His helm was off to such a master of woo, whomever he may be.

He rang the bell.

	Aridis answers the door. She had been on her way to the kitchen for a mug of mead. This is fantastic. "Friend Argo!" HAVE A HUG. All of them even! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Argo broke into a broad grin. "Friend Adris!" His big arms wrapped her up in a bear hug. "It is good to see you!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She laughs enjoying the hug. "You have missed much. Mine sister Aslief is back and..." Oh what the Hel. "Come! Let us find mead! We can exchange stories of what hast passed!" There's something important Aridis is forgetting. Something REALLY important. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"A wise god once said, never turn down free drinks!" Argo agreed, in his booming voice. "Let us make haste then! To drinking! And telling of tales!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"To the kitchen!" Oh Odin's beard something is slipping her mind. Isn't it? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"To the kitchen!" Argo boomed. "You, of course, look lovely as ever, Ardis." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	eagleofthebow 2012-08-19 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	She gives a soft laugh. "Thou art as charming as ever." The compliment reminds her of another-- Oh shit. Kael. How to bring this up gently? Hmm. Mead first. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"But of course," Argo said. "I practice quite frequently." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She laughs shaking her head as they reach the kitchen. She fetches two tankards and pours them mead. "You haven't changed. This is good." She pushes him the mug. "There is much you must hear. There is... a matter that concerns you, Friend." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Is that you, Aridis? Perhaps you could tell me where the..?" Kael stopped, looking at Argo with a confused expression. "I didn't realize we had company." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	son_of_hercules 2012-08-19 11:18 pm UTC (link)
	"A concern?" Argo asked Ardis. "What concerns have I, but wine, women, and song?" He looked over at Kael. "Indeed, friend," he said. "I am Argo, Son of Hercules!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kael felt like someone just ignited a boiling pot of rage in his belly. "You're who!?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The noise drew her from afar. Iona had kept mostly to her room since their return from Asgard...but the commotion in the kitchen sounded...intriguing, following Kael in after a moment, "Is all well my lady...?" She knew the sounds of a battle brewing when she heard it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Aridis just sighs pinching the bridge of her nose. "Kael. This is Argo. Argo. This is thine half-brother. He ist a true friend. Please do not ruin the kitchen or Lady Sarah will be very displeased." She stands up. "This is a matter for them to attend to Iona. Tis not our place." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Several different thoughts went through Argo's mind all at the same time, fought for space, and then got stuck in the doorway Three Stooges-style. "...I have a brother?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Several, if thee is truely the son of Zeus..." Oh...Ardis said it was not their place..?? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	olympian_elf 2012-08-19 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Kael did his best not to rage, purely for the kitchen's sake if he was honest. "A brother..no. I have no siblings." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	eagleofthebow 2012-08-19 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	"That would be their grandsire." She grabs a bottle of wine and two glasses. "Come, Iona. I feel the need to drink something different else where." That sounds like an order because it really is. They shouldn't interfere unless the house starts to shake too much. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I live to serve my lady..." She stepped aside for Ardis so she could follow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Argo remained confused. "You are also a Son of Hercules?" he asked. "OUTRAGEOUS!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	It was if some primal force reached into his spine and cursed him with a disturbing chill upon hearing that word. "I am right here," Kael muttered, rubbing his ear. "Shouting is not necessary." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh yeah they can go have lady time in another room. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tis but my nature," Argo told Kael. "I live every moment to its fullest!" A thought slowly worked its way through his thick head. "But if you are my brother... who is your mother?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	olympian_elf 2012-08-19 11:54 pm UTC (link)
	Were the tip of his ears twitching? ...yes. Kael took another deep breath. He had no desire to make Lady Sarah's life difficult. "Queen Alflyse of Svartaflheim." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Ah ha!" Argo said, as recognition dawned. "I remember that tale now! Our Father proved himself quite clever!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
