1 " Colt, you’re a cop. I’m fairly certain you realize what you are proposing is illegal. As in bigamy.”He laughed. “You don’t legally marry us both. Just one of us. Then the three of us make our own private vows.”“Fine,” she leaned back and gave him a smug look as if expecting her next question to jar some sense into them. “Who am I going to legally marry?”He grinned at her transparency. Obviously, she thought this was going to be a sticking point. “We’ll arm wrestle to decide that. "

And, of course," Zeus continued, though he looked like his pants were smoldering, " we must...um...thank Poseidon." " I'm sorry, brother," Poseidon said. " What was that?" " We must thank Poseidon," Zeus growled. " Without whom . . . it would've been difficult-" " Difficult?" Poseidon asked innocently." Impossible," Zeus said. " Impossible to defeat Typhon. "
