He looks at her. Nodding his head. "Yeah...war isn't cool." He blinks and smiles at her. "I can imagine not. Most women are very lethal when you piss them off. At least they are down there. I can only imagine an angered Goddess would be like a million women down there pissed off and thrown into one person." he says with a smile. Hugging her again and nods. "Yeah but I won't let that become an issue Aphrodite. He won't be able to kill you." he says softly. Smiling and looks at her lovingly still. He blinks a bit. "Darn...guess there goes any exploring." he says playfully. Laughing a moment later.<br/><br/>Then grows serious. "Living down there is no cake walk either Aphrodite. We don't need help with killing us...we can do it just fine all by ourselves. Most of us are volatile." he points out. Blinking and growls. "I won't let them." he says stubbornly. He looks at Zues again. Listening to him. "I don't need powers. I have music." he says. "As well as I have Aphrodite. I have all I would need and want up here...with her." he says genuinely. He meant every word of it. Nodding his head. Flushing as Zues mentioned the fight with Hade's son. "It wasn't much..." he says with honest modesty. Clearly not feeling he did anything note worthy. "I protect my friends...even if it is at a hazardous cost to myself." He says modestly yet honestly. Looking at him and grins again. "Yes. I can and will do so. I am happy to do so." he says happily.<br/><br/>He blinks and looks at her. "No...Aphrodite...you are my world. Down there...I had nothing but music. No one who understood me and my beliefs. Then I ran into you....and that changed. I wouldn't give up being with you for anything." he says with a smile. "You have me now and always." he says. Hugging her lightly. Looking at Zues. "Ready for whatever it is you are going to do to me." he says with a smile.
