" Athena: "What makes you human? What’s different about you
from every other creature out there?”
“We can think?” a boy wearing a loose button up shirt and khakis called
from the front row.
“We have emotions?” a girl asked, pushing her glasses up the bridge of
her nose with her pinkie.
“We’re self-aware? Like, we think about thinking and time and stuff?”
Gods, when had college kids become so uncertain? All their replies ended
with an upward lilt like they were asking a question instead of supplying
an answer.
After a couple of students gave faltering answers, I [Hades] called from the back
of the room, voice strong and certain, “They can lie.”
Athena jerked her head toward me, panic flashing in her eyes as she
scanned the rows of students. When her gaze locked on mine, the color
drained from her face. “Class dismissed. "
