Aphrodite is in a much better mood tonight than she's been in some time. There's a little swing in her step as she walks to the Bar.
This joint may have been sort of depressing lately, but she's got the perfect fixer-upper.

"Honey," she says, "could you see your way to spreading the word around? I promise, next time I'll throw one you can come to."
Smiling, Aphrodite turns and heads for the door.
[ooc: It's that time again! If you'd like your character to receive an invite to Aphrodite's holiday party, feel free to write that here, in their own post, or wherever. Aphrodite's not taggable at the moment, but she is writeable-to.]

I do not know what fashionably late means.

It means bring your boyfriend.

Well. Maybe Scorpius can ask for her tips on how to avoid making eyes at a certain adorable, green-eyed boy during class?
He pockets the invitation.

Lady - I look forward to this event most joyously. Please inform me if there is aught I can do to assist.
Chrysopteron

Will do. In the meantime, plan to bring yourself and a smile-- ooh, and maybe that boy.
Kisses,
Aphrodite

Lady, I am honored to have received your missive though I must confess confusion as I do not believe we have met. If I have errored in this, please accept my humblest apologies.
Yours in honor,
Palamedes, duke of Provance, former knight of the Round Table, once prince of Babylon, servant to Tammuz
There, that should provide some insight as to whether this is a trap of some sort or not.
no subject
No apologies necessary! Knight of the Round Table?? You've got to come, sweetheart.
Pretty please with a cherry,
-Aphrodite
no subject
I thank you dear Lady, and I shall attend.
~Palamedes
Now what would be a proper offering to the Lady of Love?
no subject
Ganymede leaves his response with the bar, and smiles to himself as he also collects several packets of henna powder.
no subject
Sundown's very early around here these days-- not a problem.
Just make sure he behaves. ; )

Of course, it could just be someone teasing her. Maybe they know she's been reading Greek mythology?
Either way, the invitation returns home with her and sits on her desk, awaiting a proper answer.
no subject
He doesn't know this 'Aphrodite' person. He doesn't know why she's throwing a holiday party. And he most certainly doesn't know how a bar, of all things, can dispense invitations.
Eventually, he grabs a pen and writes a reply that, when translated, reads something like this:
Aphrodite -
I'd love to come, but I need to check with my brother first.
- Mako
Then, he writes out a note for Bolin, with the invitation attached.
Bolin -
It's Mako. I just got an invitation for this holiday party somebody's throwing back in their world.
('Their world'. Yeaaaah, he's still gonna need some time to adjust to the whole multiversal aspect of this place.)
Do you want to come with me?
no subject
Mako,
Of course! How nice of you to think of your family.
Good luck,
Aphrodite
no subject
Arriving to both Mako and Aphrodite:
YES
YES
I AM TOTALLY IN
LET'S GO
--Bo
After a second, realizing this Aphrodite lady probably doesn't recognize what that first syllable's short for, he adds in smaller -- and slightly sheepish -- print: (Bolin)
...And after another second: (Mako's brother)
no subject
Miss Barlow'd get a kick out of this one, he's sure.
He takes a pen and writes out a reply.
Aphrodite -
It'd be my pleasure to attend.
- John Marston
The dancing? Not so much - Abigail'd kill him if she found out, and she would find out. The drinking and refreshments? Sure.
no subject
In which case, I look forward to meeting you.
-Aphrodite

He's not sure if Kate would want to go, where a lot more Milliways people would see them together.
...Wherever she is right now, anyway, even if she does come back in time.
Maybe the wait is getting to him.
He kind of wants to bang his head against the bar.
Aprhodite,
I can't say no to a goddess. Consequences and all, you know.
- Tommy
(Bar might have to translate Tommy's pigeon-scratch handwriting.)
no subject
I shall attend, not only as my best self, but as myself entirely, as previously discussed. Presuming, that is, that I may find my way to Nyc.
I thank you for your generous invitation,
Harry Percy

I am almost completely certain you have the wrong Artemis here.
- Artemis,

no subject
I'll be there!
no subject
He thinks he can make it. He's not one to pass up a party.
no subject
Eventually, with some hesitations over the phrasing and at least one inkblot meant to cover a word, he pens a response.
Lady Aphrodite, it's an honor
weI couldn't possibly refuse.Sincerely,
Louis Hoshi, Lieutenant (Junior Grade)
