Preening a god
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was a quiet evening on Mount Olympus, the sun was just starting to dip behind the ocean as Apollo made his return. Athena was in her room taking off her armor and fixing her hair for bed, when a thought crossed her mind. She couldn't help but notice how peaceful the evening was. It was quiet. Too quiet. Normally, there was a mischievous, little god fluttering around the palace, causing a ruckus. But it was so quiet that Athena could hear the soft chirps of crickets. Where was Hermes?
Hermes was curled up in his bed, head covered with a blanket as he tossed and turned, groaning as he rubbed his ankles on the edge of his bed. It was that time of the year where gods and goddesses with feathers or wings would go through a molt, and unfortunately, Hermes was always the last one to do so. He hated it with a burning passion, he felt so itchy and uncomfortable. And to make matters worse, the molt messed with his ability to fly properly.
The silence became too much for Athena. Sighing, she stood up from her vanity and walked out of her room to go find her little brother. Walking down the hall, she ended up running into a very tired Apollo, “Ah hello Apollo.” She greeted, “Have you seen Hermes?”
Apollo let out a long yawn before shaking his head, “I'm afraid I haven't. Why? Is something wrong?” He asked, slight concern growing in his voice.
“I haven't seen him all evening, and it's been very quiet” Athena explained, shifting her gaze to the doors lining the hall, “Maybe he's in his room?”
Apollo thought for a moment that it was odd that Hermes wasn't causing mischief, and that the halls were not filled with his high pitched cackles. “That is rather odd. He hardly spends any time in his room unless he wants to be alone. Which is almost never”
“That's why I'm a bit concerned.” Athena nodded, “Come on. Let's go see if he's in his room, and if he's not, we'll ask around” she led Apollo down to Hermes's bedroom door.
“Hermes? Are you in there?” Athena asked through the door, gently knocking on the golden wood.
After a moment, both Athena and Apollo heard shifting and frustrated groaning coming through the door, “Go away! I do not want visitors in my current state!” Hermes called out from behind the door.
At first, Apollo thought he was being dramatic again, but Athena noticed something in his voice. Genuine frustration. “Hermes. Are you alright?” She asked gently, cracking the door open to peek in the room.
“I said I don't want visitors!” Hermes grumbled, throwing a pillow at Athena's head before ducking back under his blankets.
Athena yelped slightly at the pillow, shutting the door in time to shield herself. She then turned back towards Apollo, who looked like he was trying so hard not to laugh. “Don't you dare.” She scolded, pinching the bridge of her nose in frustration, “Something is wrong with him. He never kicks anyone out of his room, let alone us.”
Apollo pondered for a moment before moving to the door, “Let me try something” he said softly, knocking a cheerful tune on the door, “Hermes~ I am respecting your privacy by knocking, but asserting my role as your big brother by coming in anyways~” He smiled, opening the door wide, causing Athena to smack her own forehead in regret, “And this is why I'm the goddess of wisdom, and you aren't.”
Hermes was fully under his blanket, letting out a frustrated growl as Apollo sat down on the edge of the bed, “I said I didn't want visitors. Go away..” he mumbled from under his blanket.
“Not a chance, little brother. Not until you tell us what is wrong” Apollo said casually, lounging back on his bed.
Athena sighed, taking a seat on the other side of the blanket lump of Hermes, “We're just worried about you, Hermes. I haven't seen you all evening and it was very quiet in the halls.”
Hermes grumbled as he sat up, the blanket still over his head, “I just didn't want anyone to see me in this state..” he mumbled, looking embarrassed.
Both Athena and Apollo started to grow concerned at how aloof their little brother was being, “What do you mean, Hermes?” Athena asked softly, placing a gentle hand on Hermes's shoulder.
The young god sighed before lowering the blanket from his head, revealing messy brown hair and scraggly looking wings, “This is what I mean..I'm a mess..” He sighed, looking away from his older sister.
Apollo and Athena looked at each other, feeling sympathetic for their little brother. Athena especially. She knew how it felt to go through the molt, and how debilitating it could be. “Hermes. Do you want us to help you preen your wings?” Athena asked softly, giving his shoulder a gentle squeeze.
Hermes perked up at the offer, “Yes! Please, help me look beautiful again, darling!” He begged, gripping Athena's dress while making the biggest puppy eyes he could muster. Apollo chuckled at his little brother's antics, finding them very endearing.
Sitting cross legged on the bed, Athena let Hermes rest his head on her lap, while Apollo sat near his feet.
“Just relax, Hermes.” Athena started.
“When we're done, you'll be fit and glowing once more~” Apollo finished.
Athena started gently running her fingers through the feathers of his head wings, pulling any loose feathers from them. Meanwhile, Apollo did the same thing for the ankle wings. Hermes practically melted. It felt so good to not be constantly itchy.
This went on for a few minutes, the soft touches and relief from the itching almost made Hermes fall asleep as he melted into Athena's lap. However, that changed when Apollo had to adjust his little brother's foot. He had gently grabbed his toes to move his foot up, seeming to forget how sensitive the young god's feet are.
Hermes's eyes snapped open as he squealed loudly, moving his head away from Athena's hand. Apollo pulled his hands away for a moment, processing what just happened, before smirking. “Apollo. Don't” Athena warned, trying to calm Hermes. But it was useless, Apollo already moved to straddle Hermes's legs.
“Aww little brother, whatever was that adorable noise?” Apollo teased, tracing his fingers up Hermes's sole.
The reaction was instant. Hermes started cackling loudly, squeaking when Apollo reached his toes, “NYAHAAHAHA!! AHAPOLLO!!” He laughed loudly, flapping his free wings, causing tiny feathers to fall out.
Athena was starting to struggle to keep Hermes's head still with how much he was laughing and squirming, “Cut it out Apollo! You're making him squirm!” she scolded, holding one wing in one hand and the top of his head in the other.
“Aww come on, ‘Thena! He loves it!” Apollo said smugly, still holding Hermes's toes in one hand, while continuing to preen and tickle his wing on his other foot.
Hermes was in hysterics, squealed and flailing around like a fish out of water. At one point, Apollo lightly gripped under his middle toe and Hermes lost it. The young god started squeaking and smacking Apollo's shoulder frantically, “NOHOHO!! NAHAT THEHERE!! AHAPOLLO!!” Hermes begged, smacking his brother's shoulder faster. Despite his protests, Hermes was having a lot of fun, even though Athena was clearly getting fed up.
“Apollo. We are supposed to be preening him, not tickling him.” She scolded, trying to properly preen Hermes's head wings. However, the soft touches on them, plus the accidental brush of Athena's hand on his ear, Hermes was becoming more and more squirmy, “Hermes can you at least try to hold still?” She asked gently, with a slight hint of annoyance at Apollo in her voice.
“HA! That’s like asking father to not cheat on Hera!” Apollo cackled, now gently burying his fingers into the base of the ankle wings, which earned a loud screech from Hermes, “SCREEEEEHEHEEEE!! AHAHAAHAPOLLO!!” He squealed, smacking at his brother's shoulder once again.
“You know, little brother, you haven't asked me to stop once. I'm not sure that word is in your vocabulary.” Apollo teased, tracing around his little brother's ankle, earning a chirp.
“No. But it is in my vocabulary, Apollo. Now stop this so we can continue preening.” Athena scolded, trying her best to keep Hermes's head still.
Despite the warning, Apollo wasn't ready to stop yet. There was one more thing he wanted to try. Grabbing one of the fallen feathers, Apollo traced the fluffy end up and down Hermes's foot.
It felt like he had just been electrocuted with tickles as he barked out a loud laugh, before dissolving into squeaky cackles, “EEEEEEEEHEHEEEEK!! NAHAT THAHAT!!” He squealed, thrashing harder in Athena's lap.
“Apollo! Knock it off!” She said firmly, clearly not amused.
Apollo groaned but moved his hands away from Hermes's feet, “Fiiiiine. You're no fun, ‘Thena.” He pouted, moving off of the young god's legs.
Athena rolled her eyes as Hermes laid panting in her lap, still giggling from the aftershocks, “Eeheh..heh..thahat wahas fun..” he panted.
“HA! See? He loved it.” Apollo announced proudly, causing Athena to smack him upside the head, “I know he enjoyed it, you idiot.” She huffed, “Now then. Shall we continue Preening him?”
Apollo rubbed his head where Athena had just smacked him, but agreed.
The rest of the preening went off without any more distractions. Hermes let out a few small giggles here and there, but aside from that, he was relaxed and felt a lot happier than before.
After about 20 minutes, Hermes's wings were back to their dazzling white state, not a loose feather in sight.
He sat up with a mighty stretch before looking in the mirror, “Holy Moly! They look better than before! Thank you both so much!” He said cheerfully, hugging his older siblings tight, his newly preened wings fluttering happily.
“Any time, little brother.” Apollo chuckled, ruffling Hermes's hair.
Athena couldn't help but smile at her little brother, “I bet they feel a whole lot better, huh?” She smiled, rubbing his cheek with her thumb.
“Ah yes! They feel so much better. Now I don't feel like I'm gonna go insane.” Hermes sighed in relief, flopping back onto his bed.
“It's nice to see you got your dramatic charm back, Wings.” Apollo teased, poking him in the side, causing a squeak.
Hermes just whacked Apollo in the head with a pillow in response to the poke, “ACK! Hey!” Apollo yelped.
“As much as I love our tickle fights, Apollo, I am really tired now.” He huffed playfully, following that up with a yawn.
His yawn was rather contagious, causing not only Apollo to yawn in response, but Athena as well.
“Mmm I guess that makes three of us.” Athena chuckled tiredly, laying back on Hermes's bed. Apollo followed suit, laying down next to Athena.
Hermes snuggled up on her other side, letting out another yawn as Athena laid sandwiched between her two brothers.
She wasn't planning on having a sleep over, but after a long day training her warriors, she wasn't going to complain. Neither was Apollo after a long day of pulling the sun in his chariot. Soon, the three siblings drifted off into a peaceful slumber, soft smiles etched onto their faces as they held each other close.
Thank you to everyone for the support during this Milestone challenge. athese last few months have been crazy so finding time to get it done was a pain.
