’ I was going to apologize to you. ’

Hades looked down at the demigod, his expression blank as he regarded him. Living in a place like this, surrounded by so many children, was starting to do a number to his patience, increasing it greatly. He supposed it was the same phenomenon experienced by parents of many small children, he couldn’t help but give the demigods passes for behaviors that would have usually offended him.

Like bumping into him. He couldn’t expect mortals to look where they were going at all times.

“It’s no bother. Just please, look up while you are crossing the street, at least.”

’ Where did you find all this? ’

“Around in the forests, there’s all sorts of pretty flowers out there. If you know which ones are poisonous or…if you’re not afraid of horrifying monsters.”

He said, not phased at all by the idea of terrible monstrosities jumping out at him as he picked flowers for his wild bouquet. The idea of monsters truly didn’t bother him at all, if he encountered any he would just fight them off. But he guessed not everybody could do that.

“If you want, I can make you one!”

’ Why don’t you just stay here? ’

It was awfully tempting. The bohemian district was one of the god’s favorite places in Mount Phoenix, and the music sometimes played there was intoxicating. It was all he could do not to merely sit down and take a nap or something. He had stumbled upon this child of Apollo making music on the street, and it made Pan stop and listen. Of course it did. They were natural music makers, Apollo’s children, and so far the one Pan had met here had been a sweet kid. “I...suppose I could stay and listen for a bit longer.” It wasn’t like there was much else to do.

’ So that makes me…what then…backup? ’

“Yes. Yes, it does.”

Kibum drawled lightly as he filed his nails, looking at the boy with a raised eyebrow, speaking unapologetically. It was the only way that he knew how to speak, after all. The point was, he still needed someone to come on his shopping excursion with him and the person that he’d invited had canceled last minute. Leaving Oliver instead.

“Being backup isn’t that bad. Even players who are benched are still on the team. So, are you down?”
