Jeeves and Wooster and Greek Mythology.

A late night conversation about some unusually pretty boy being a 'Ganymede', or, a male that trumps most people's sexuality, lead to an interesting revelation.

You see, Zeus was an active pursuer of the ladies, despite how Greek he was. But then there was Ganymede. And he went unf.

And, more importantly, he KEPT HIM.

And then my lovely companion mentioned how 'Junior Ganymede' always made her giggle for that reason. I started to giggle along, but then....

BERTIE IS ZEUS.

PLUM JUST TOOK THE SEX OUT.

Bertie is Zeus, Jeeves is Ganymede, Agatha is Hera, Bingo is Apollo(or possibly Eros), Honoria is Artemis, Florence is Athena, Madeline is Aphrodite, Spode is Ares, and Gussie is Hephaestus.

We might have made the whole Parthenon pantheon(edit,ty!), but I saw something shiny.

DISCUSS. MAKE TOGA FANART.

EDIT: I'm keeping 'toga' because everyone knows what it is and it's fun to chant.

If you can't turn into a giant eagle, I'm very sorry for you, because few forms are more fun. You ride thermals and updrafts and you can see everything. Sometimes, on a clear day, you can see your undoing. I know I did. He was sitting on a rock and watching the sky, surrounded by a flock of grazing sheep. With eagle eyes I could see that his were bluer than the ocean below me, and looked as if they could see me as clearly as I could see him.

I've since been asked what I was thinking, and all I can say is that Eros is a mean-spirited little bugger with dashed good aim. Those pretty dove-fletched arrows of his are barbed, and none had ever hit me as hard as the one that day. I actually saw the glint of the golden shaft, but referring back to my earlier point, it's impossible to get out of the way, so you may as well stand and take the hit like a man. Getting back to the point, I didn't think. I know I'm fickle and inconstant and fall in love with a different nymph every hour, but this was different. It hurt more than any of the others, and drove me to swoop down and snatch him up so quickly the sheep didn't even have time to scatter. I was very careful not to hurt him with my claws, and he had the sense to cling tightly instead of struggling. When we landed at the summit of Mt. Olympus I set him down gently, and changed into myself again.

"...I am afraid I do not know the proper form of address for a god." He murmured.

I just grinned and took his hand. "You can call me anything you like, Ganymede."
