If you could take back one thing you said in anger, what would it be and why?
This is difficult. I don't know many other Gods, not well enough to have a full blown conversation with them, and so my choice of something I've said that I'd like to take back is rather limited by my lack of sociability. Also, the Gods that I do know and converse with have never really seen me speak angrily, either to or about them. I've never found a reason to be really upset with any of the Underworlders that I know well, and so I can't claim to regret anything that I'd said to them when angry.
As well as that, I'm not really a person who gets very angry. I have a lot of patience, and my temper hardly ever really flares up, so I don't get into many arguments, not even at home. I think, if my anger and resentment has any place, it's probably aimed at my father, though I avoid him on principle for that purpose. There's no point for me to get angry about something I cannot change. It's a waste of emotion.
However, everyone has something that they regret saying, even me. If I regret anything, it would be a statement I made to my mother, a very long time ago. I was young, an adolescent Goddess, I suppose, and like all adolescents, my emotions were quite unsettled during this time. It was particularly awkward due to my parentage, and well, hades and I have never been the best of friends, and we never will, but our relationship was especially strained during that period.
I can't remember the reason why, but that day I was quite angry with my stepfather. I didn't voice this anger, not even at the dinner table, but the fact that I wasn't pleased with him was easily picked up on. My mother made a comment, asking me to pass something to Hades, only she asked me to pass it 'to my father'. I don't like my father, but I've never really shared a strong enough bond with my stepfather to consider him a parent. It felt uncomfortable, and due to my mood, I resorted to spitting "he's not my father!" back at her.
I know now that it was a mistake, pure and simple, but it bothered me then. What bothers me now is that I said it, most likely wounding both Hades and Persephone. I wish I hadn't, and I'd like to take that back, if I ever could.
