The Original Snub

Boomtime, Chaos 7, 3176
I. Hate. Men.
I have nothing further to say about that.
Anyway, I've been thinking about the original snub. (AKA the judgement of Paris.) You, know, the one with the Apple of Discord? And I've been wondering which of the goddesses I'm most like, of the four of them.
I'm pretty sure I'm not Athene. I'm just not gonna touch that one, as tempted as I am to talk about the fact that she is cruel.
Could I compare myself to the lovely Aphrodite? In a sense, yes. She's vain. And she's terribly manipultive. I've grown out of that, some. Last year, I was horrible with social experimenting. I was awful to people just for fun. I made a guy cry once. *Smirks* But that's all in the past. Isn't it? Aphrodite was just pure evil. Almost like Jadis, but in a different way.
As for Hera, I used to love her. She's delightfully jealous, much like myself. (I think I've commented on that before?) And she's the queen of the gods! Not that I'm the queen of anything, but I love the idea of power. She's the epitome of envy, and I think somebody should have realized that making someone with that kind of a temper, who's that powerful mad all the time *coughzeuscough* was a bad idea. Reasons I'm not like her? She's the goddess of marriage. Ewwww. Can't think of anything else, but I'd say that's bad enough.
Finally, Eris. Yes, I know she wasn't one of the goddesses competeing for the apple, but it was her apple! Really, give credit where credit is due. She is my personal favorite, naturally. I wouldn't call her jealous, though. Vengeful seems more appropriate. Or you could say she was just doing her job, being the goddess of chaos. I wish I could say I was like her, but I really don't think I am. :(
Anyway, do tell me what you think!
