Chaos.

Her apartment is always a huge mess. It used to bother me a whole lot, but I’ve been with Eris for, oh, eight months now. And it’s starting to grow on me.

[kenderlord]

Much obliged! I wasn't sure if my use of lesser Greek gods was too esoteric and weird, but I'm pleased you got a kick out of it!
