Sure, he knew that she was beautiful. Mars would continuously flirt with her for a few weeks and maybe move on. Maybe. He always did love a good spar with a girl and a cute Venus girl at that. "My mother is a right pain in the arse, it's true, but I doubt that she will mess much with you." Mars was lucky that there were few gods that tended to mess with the people that he particularly cared about. No, he wouldn't let them. It was always his job to mess with people and anyone else that did it was just out of order and Mars would make sure that they would get their particular rewards or punishments as the case may be. A good bit of his children had anger issues and just maybe Julia could talk some sense into the boneheaded children of his that were running around like morons. "I expect that you'll be good for giving some motivational lectures to your cohort later on Centurion." He said with a grin.

He felt the tip of the dagger in the spot of his under arm that he had pointed out for her to make sure to strike at. The proximity was enough to make anyone on the ground wonder exactly what they were doing. But Mars didn't have any bad intentions with this girl. Her mother was rather protective of her children and he wouldn't particularly want to incour the wrath of his girlfriend. At least he was better than that idiot Vulcan. He was a crazy old bastard who got booted off the side of the mountain. Served that stupid recluse right, Mars though as he grinned down at Julia, moving to the side, around to her back with a grace and agility that most wouldn't expect from such a massive god. A quick movement and he produced a knife that he secured in his book, gently tickeling the back of her neck with it before flipping the sword over in his hand. He inhaled gently, breathing softly as his eyes calculated a few new moves. "It's always good to surprise your opponent. I keep at least four weapons on me at all time." He mumbled to Julia with a smirk.

Mars suddenly spun, slashing in opposite directions with both weapons, the flats aimed at her chest and midsection. "Your skills are impressive and you are a quick learner. No wonder you're a centurion." Mars flashed a smile before quickly moving forward and aiming another few blows to her midsection, making sure to steer clear of her face. No he wouldn't want to mess up a pretty face like that. "So would you rather visit France or Rome? I'm sure I could pull a few strings so you could have some fun..." Mars gave a mischevious grin that was normally reserved for that idiot mercury.

Whatever this turned out to be with Mars, Julia was fine with. She had dated flirted with plenty of his sons; strung them along for a little bit before just tossing them aside and moving on. Plus, he was a god. She couldn’t really expect him to stay with any one person forever. The only god that did that was Juno, and Julia was pretty sure that was only because she was the goddess of marriage and it wouldn’t quite reflect well on her if she went around having affairs like the rest of them. ”That’s good then. Leave her wrath to everyone else.” Julia didn’t want to get mixed up in any of the gods’ bad sides, just as well that Juno had other people to be angry with. Lucky for her, as much as people around here frowned at the Venus kids, very few people had any major issues with her or her siblings. Gods too, for that matter. It wasn’t like Vulcan was sitting around plotting revenge for Venus’ affairs with Mars or the many mortals the goddess had slept with. ”And if I’m not then I can just Charmspeak them into a motivated state.” She smirked at him. That wasn’t something she had ever tried to use her gift for… Something to think about.

One second she was quite close, face to face with Mars, and the next he was behind her holding a knife to the back of her neck. The pressure wasn’t enough to break any skin, even if she moved, so Julia went ahead and spun on the log until she was facing the god again. ”Four weapons? I can barely find room for a dagger.” Besides, he could make weapons appear out of thin air, not exactly something she could do. ”I guess the fact that a daughter of Venus can fight at all surprises most of them, the gymnastics too. Most Romans don’t expect someone to come at them from a back handspring.” That was true, she had caught quite a few opponents off guard with the flips during battle, and then there was the Charmspeak that was just wonderfully charged by the emotional aspects of her fights.

No sooner had she spoken than Mars was at it again, but she jumped away and managed to avoid both of the blows. ”Oh, and here I was sure that I’d managed to Charmspeak my way into the position. While her comment was sarcastic, Julia honestly wasn’t sure why she had been picked to be a Centurion. Sure, she knew how to fight, but it wasn’t like she was some major warrior. Not letting Mars’ comment distract her, Julia quickly dropped the dagger down to deflect the blows to her midsection. ”You’re really going to make me choose?” She put on a fake pout for a second. ”Well, I’d say whichever one I could catch fashion week. I doubt Remus or Jason would let me go, though. I mean, unless you think up some godly business that’s super important and just happens to need a daughter of Venus to attend to it…” As much as she didn’t like Stone, he definitely listened to the gods when they made a choice. Maybe his father could convince him to let her leave the legion for a bit
