"Why wouldn't Demeter be pleased to see me? Have I been gone too long?"

Demeter sat back on the seat she was sitting on, and downed the entire cocktail. She barely moved an inch even as the door opened and both mother, and brother walked in. She closed her eyes, then re-opened them. Looking at the wall.

Now her family wasn't always the brightest, but she surely thought her brother would know better than to get without 5 feet of her. Especially when her daughter was away in the underworld with Hades. It made her even worse. Her moods were all swings.

Demeter just glared at the wall.

"Demeter, my dear," Poseidon beamed. "How are you? It's been ages." He stood before her, expectantly, with open arms.
