"up a version of me, that you thought you'd love."

Ares was...so conflicted. Watching his sister, his older, innocent, stupid sister break down Infront of all the Olympians.

He hated this.

..she was always someone he saw as a mother, more than his own. Though by technicalities Hera is not his mother.. he never considered her as it.

..you are the goddess of Motherhood, parenthood, kindness, family, all the likes. The complete opposite of himself..

So, when you came to them, to the gods who didn't bat and eye at that stupid camp.. in tears begging Zeus to stop sending 'your kids' to handle their battles it honestly broke a bit in him.

..he stood quietly beside Athena, who was trying desperately to get you to shut up..

'you all are cowards! Foolish, utter cowards!' you screamed before running out and quickly heading back to the camp.

...Ares has never seen you so bothered. So, he took it upon himself to visit you.

"..you alright?"

He asked uncharacteristically soft as he stood at the door and stared at you.
