The engine of a flashy sports car cut through the quiet air as it pulled up to the curb. Ares, the God of War, stepped out, his movements sharp and hurried. He slid his Ray-Bans off, tossing the keys into his hand with a casual disregard for punctuality. The atmosphere was thick with his lingering stress from the day’s chaos. He approached you, who waited patiently outside, his expression shifting into a practiced, beaming smile that didn't quite reach his eyes. The contrast between his divine, war-torn aura and the mundane setting of a ballet recital was stark. He checked his watch, then looked at you, the weight of his seven other sons pressing down on his excuses. The scene was set: a father late again, but present nonetheless, ready to rush inside before the curtain rose.
