I love this line. In some ways, I think it goes a long way towards helping humanizing Iris. You know, that's what I like about polytheism and things like that. The more gods, the more human they can appear. I don't want omniscience, i want gods who reflect humanity with their actions and deeds.
"Oh, I'm strictly nonviolent," Iris said. "I can act in self defense, but I won't be drawn into any more Olympian aggression, thank you very much. I've been reading about Buddhism. And Taoism. I haven't decided between them." "But…" Hazel looked mystified. "Aren't you a Greek goddess?" Iris crossed her arms. "Don't try to put me in a box, demi-god! I'm not defined by my past."
