Olympian family meeting
It'd been mentioned that the Avengers weren't strangers to Olympian gods, or godlings as it was, so it was little effort to get the address of one. Now the Avengers did pay, so Phil figured he had some money, why ever not go see one of his distant relatives? Because really in this pantheon everyone was related. A plane to New Orleans and he was on the Champions' doorstep with only a backpack slung over his shoulder. How deja vu, sort of like how he'd shown up at the Avengers' doorstep. Perhaps he could stay the night if this went alright. Phil grinned and pressed what he figured was the doorbell or intercom.

"Looking for an..." Ah what was the name again, Hercules kid not Hercules. Though that guy had a lot of kids. "Argo I think? Argonaut? Jason? No, no, it was Argo something. Well your resident immortal then."

"Ah, so who's the native then? And anyone interesting on your team? Somehow there's a couple of cases of royalty on the Avengers, then again, I can't find that too odd considering...us."

"Nick Salem," Argo explained. "The latest Ghost Rider. As native as he is of anywhere, really."

He went on, "I think they are all rather interesting. My good friend Corey is from Nova Roma, where the gods of Olympus are still worshiped."

"Ooh really?! That's great," he grinned. "Here I thought people had stopped all together. So how is that? On a team with a worshipper?"

"It is quite the settlement, from what I understand," Argo said.

"It works quite well, in truth. His mother and my father are actually friends of a sort. And not in the usual way my father is friends with women. But Corey tends to keep me from doing anything too stupid."

"Odd arrangement with a worshipper," Phil said with a wry smile. "So he's the one who tries to keep you from being too wild? How's that working out?"

"Well enough," Argo said. "He does not not interfere with my dating habits, but provides a bit of extra thought at times. Which I admit, is not my strong suit."

"You're godly, you do as you please, not all gods go the thoughtful route," he shrugged and said off-handedly. "Where were you taking me? Or is this a surprise?"

"I am a guest in this realm," Argo said. "And while I have my godly pride... my will is not something to be imposed."

He grinned. "Just a little place I know. Racks. It is a bikini bar!"

Phil laughed. "That's an unexpected point of view from a god." Most didn't seem to think of themselves as guests, at least that was his impression.

A bikini bar with a cute name. Phil smirked and chuckled to himself a bit, that was probably expected given the man's reputation. "Alright. I want to see how the great Argo lives!" He just grinned.

"The gods can go hang," Argo said. "With few exceptions, they're all right bastards. I am just happy to walk among mortals and enjoy myself."

The place wasn't far, and when they entered, they--or rather Argo--was greeted with an "ARGO!" from several of the bartenders/waitresses.

Phil blinked at that for a second, thrown by the statement, before the lopsided smirk came back. "Ah, but you are one, and I am one, and gods do not hang so easily. Are they that bad? I've run into few gods."

Phil stepped aside and smirked as he watched the greeting. Seemed that Argo was quite the regular.

"Other than my father and mother," Argo said, "I've found the most of the family to be bastards or otherwise scheming manipulators, if not outright villains."

He waved happily to the girls. "Good evening, ladies! Drinks for my friend and I, and drinks all around as well!"

He had to hold back the chuckle at the naive bias that came through there. Everyone bad but my parents? That was what a lot of kids said. Though he guessed Argo was certainly youthful at heart.

"I take it you're a regular here. Nice," he grinned as he looked around. "So is there anyone here you haven't slept with?"

Argo took a drink of the beer one of the women brought him.

"A few, I suppose. Jenny, over there, for example. She is married."

"Ah good, you've got respect for boundaries then. Can't say that of all the gods," Phil said as he smiled behind a sip of beer.

He grinned and raised his glass. "Well then, to gods taking on...Racks!"

"Far too many stories of my grandfather's improprieties," Argo said.

He raised his glass and took a drink. "To gods and Racks!"
