Hera: With war about to break out, we need to start thinking about strategy. In that case, I’ll defer to you- Are there any heroes you have an eye on?
Athena: Oh, I’m delighted you asked!
Athena: (slams two full four inch binders on the table)
Athena: So, this here is Diomedes, King of Argos. Now I know he’s seems a bit young, but he has more experience than most of the others put together! Here, have a look over his resume.
Hera: My goodness, taking Thebes, and at such a young age? That is noteworthy. A good choice, I think. Is there anyone else?
Athena: Yes! This is Odysseus. He is the King of Ithaca and he lies constantly.
Hera:
Athena: It’s hilarious.
Hera: Well, maybe he’s more impressive in person. I’ll just go down and take a peek-
Hera: Athena, I don’t wish to alarm you, but your mortal has yoked a donkey to an ox, and is sowing salt into the beach. Stark naked.
Athena: Oh, don’t worry about that. He’s only pretending to be mad. He doesn’t want to go to war, and is trying to get out of it.
Hera:
Athena: Obviously I’m not going to let him get away with it, but isn’t that clever of him?!
