It was the winter solstice and all the gods were gathered in the throne room. Arguments were breaking out left right and center. Of course this was nothing new. At times it seemed like all the gods did for fun was fight and start wars with each other. Athena and Poseidon were screaming at each other about Annabeth and Percy's relationship, each claiming that their child was too good for the others. I just rolled my eyes I had heard this argument a million times. Poseidon and Athena really need something new to fight about.

Ares and Hephaestus were glaring at each other. As they had just finished an argument about whom Aphrodite should be with. This argument was even more common than Poseidon and Athena's.

I looked down at the golden table and put my head between my hands. Trying to drown out the yelling and screaming.

"We are one seriously screwed up family" I thought to my self

I looked slightly up as I realized the truth in what I just thought.

I thought back about the last few millennia remembering all the messed up things that we've done.

I tried to form a list in my head. "Huh!" I thought "We are a really screwed up family"

Let's see, there's the fact that we have a murderous father who swallowed five of us whole and is now coming back to try and destroy the world.

Oh I can't forget that we are trying to kill our father. "Nah" I thought "I don't think that really counts he was a crappy father after all"

Were relying on a sixteen year old kid to save the world. Now that right there is a big one. I mean we are gods and we are relying on a mortal child to save us.

I have a daughter who popped out of my brain. That's just weird. How does that even happen? I'd better ask Athena about that. Wait that's another screwed up thing; my daughter probably knows more about her own birth than I do.

My wife threw our son off of Mount Olympus just because he was ugly. And worse I LET her throw our son of Mount Olympus.

My Brother Hades kidnapped Persephone, who also happens to be his niece, trapped her in the underworld and forced her to marry him.

"Wow this is turning out to be a long list"

I guess that I too have some flaws. I did marry my sister after all. That is really messed up.

And to top; it all off, we, well mainly the guys are constantly having affairs with mortals, siring children by women/men other than our spouse.

Before I knew what i was doing I opened my mouth and demanded all the other gods be silent.

"I have just made an important realization"

"Yeah and what's that." Asked Apollo in a bored voice

"We're really screwed up" I replied in a dead serious voice

Apollo looked at me kind of funny and said "you just noticed that now"

He and all the other gods burst out laughing. Apparently they had already come to the same conclusion that I had.

Well I was bored so I decided to write this little one shot I hope you enjoyed it Please read and review.
