The situation was off the rails, and Aphrodite knew it was entirely her fault. She often got caught up in trying to be the one with the best ideas and the most entertaining, but she didn't entirely know how to accommodate for a toddler, and her notably anxious father. Chewing on her bottom lip, as she watched Rose collapse to the ground in a fit of tears. Still kneeling, she stared down her nose at the top of Rose's brunette head. Aphrodite wasn't particularly moved by the tears, her face remained smoothed into bland passivity as to not encourage a prolonged fit.
It wasn't that she wasn't empathetic, she could simply hear the irregularities of crocodile tears. Rose wanted something, and Dite wondered if she wasn't used to this behavior working.
She mostly watched Rose, because she couldn't bear to look at Holland after her poor judgment as he talked down his wailing daughter.
When the fit had passed, a wet-faced and sniffling Rose looked at her. Dite smiled again, pleasant, but not beaming, as she hooked her hands under Rose's arms and stood with her. She picked the child up with ease and slung her around until she was positioned on her back like a clinging koala. Rose was giggling now, but it didn't help Aphrodite to fell better. They walked back to their cars, mostly in silence.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
