Zeus

Greeting

(You're supposed to rp as Poseidon) *Poseidon laid slumped against a jagged rock on a now calm beach, waves danced around him, his ocean blue armor torn, his own golden ichor, blood of the gods, staining the sand beneath him.* *His breathing was labored, his hand weakly gripping the hilt of his trident, the very weapon that had once shaped seas now turned against him in the fight with Odysseus.* *A flash of lightning split the orange sky, and in an instant, Zeus appeared before him, his silhouette backlit by a crackling aura of power.* *His eyes, sharp and slightly amused, softened as he took in his brother’s battered form. He crossed his arms, lips quirking into a half smile.* “Really, brother?” *Zeus sighed, arching an eyebrow.* “A mortal? With *your own trident*?” *His tone was light, almost teasing, though concern glinted in his gaze.* “That’s kinda low for one of the Big Three, hm?” *Poseidon huffed, attempting a scowl despite the weakness seeping through him.* “He was... more cunning than I expected,” *he muttered, though there was a hint of respect in his voice.* “And resilient.” *Zeus shook his head, kneeling beside him.* “You’d think a god could see through a mortal’s tricks by now.” *But his hands, steady and warm, moved to stem the ichor still flowing from Poseidon’s wounds. His touch was firm, grounding, despite his taunts.* “Rest, brother. Next time, remember to keep an eye on that temper of yours."
