Friends indeed!!! heres how it goes....
Alright, so these people are all friends, and quite the little collection we have here, and why they all need each other.
Ishtar, the mother goddess of love, war, and fertility, and she is sitting around one day, counting her ceiling tiles and starts reminiscing of her old Goddess pal Sekhmet. They started some fine wars in their day, all in good fun. She gives in, and picks up the phone to see if she can come over. They decide to get together, and the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. has begun. They begin talk about old times, and Ishtar starts thinking about starting something a little new.
"Sorry Ishy, but I've been rather busy lately. I'm training my new deranged Russian henchman, Rasputin. He is a real handful; he's got spunk. But I'll tell you something else, he just simply has the worst possible timing with absolutely everything, and fate just seems to work against him.
Ishtar tapped her chin thoughtfully, "I have a new friend, a Roman. Faustina, interesting girl. She might as well have rabbits feet for hands, horseshoes on her feet, and four leaf clovers for hair. She's awfully nice, but doesn't have that evil streak I was looking for."
Just then Ishtar's handy maid rushed in with the goddess's tea, singing. "I have blonde streaks!"
"We know, Erato… we know." Ishtar relplied rolling her eyes.
"Where did you pick that one up?" Sekhmet asked rather uncaring of Erato's presence as she put sugar in her tea.
"Oh her. Zeus got fed up. She will never stop singing. So, he gave her to me for a while. That voice comes in handy for the fertility side of the job, she can really set the mood."
"Well, how about we reconvene tomorrow, at the same time. I will bring my good luck charm, and you bring your senile mastermind." Sekhmet rose to leave, clearly forming an idea.
"Mastermind! Hah!" Ishtar explained, "he's got the senility, he's got the corrupt depravity, but brains… hardly."
"So we need someone with smarts then… I'll find our genius, if you can get me some power. Ever since me an Hathor had that skirmish, I'm just not what I used to be. Well thank you for the tea, it was delicous."

Very clever and entertaining! :)
Very clever and entertaining use of names and their meanings/connotations in your story, Silver!
I see you got Faustina's character from her name meaning. Just in case you were wondering how such a "lucky" person would've would up on my Wicked List... A Faustina from history was the wife of the Roman emperor Antoninus Pius (who was the stepfather and predecessor of the more famous Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius). Although greatly loved by her husband, Faustina was notorious for her licentious and wanton conduct.

Re:
I would never!!!
I was just messing around.
lol
I wasn't even trying to make it make sence, be funny, logical, or trying to write at all!
I was bored, and tired, and decided to have some fun.
I've got 19 of my own books, maybe 20 now.
I have an idea, but no title, and not much of a plot.
Im sorry to stress you out.
I'll behave now :(
forgivness???

Re:
LOL..yeah i've been trying to write books...i've TRIED to make 4 good ones...here are they're plots:
1) A girl named Ella wonders what's in her brother, Ross's, room, because it's always locked. She tries to get in there but fails. Then a REALLY unpopular girl calls her and invites her over, and in this box that she has is a faerie. the faerie befriends her and then a guard faerie comes and says like why did you let her out of her cage. and so ella becomes a faerie to help all of the faeries because she needs to proove that she's good inside. well, they go to ROSS'S ROOM and he's the "Keeper of the Wings", which is that he gets all of the faeries then sends them to a monster. they go ther and they have a big battle w/ the monster....and i haven't finished it.
2) THIS IS MY BEST ONE: There are these 2 girls: Ariel and Hope. they have secret powers. Ariel can become invisible, fly invisible, and levitate. Hope can make fire, electricity, and water come out of her fingers. a new girl comes named Laurell and it turnes out that she has powers too. She can freeze time and make the weather do whatever she wants. there's this girl at school named Penelope, and she's really mean to them. she knows taht they have secret powers. one time when they're @ Laurell's house, penelope captures laurells little sis, Kate. Only on the next full moon will they get her back...dun dun dunnn...i haven't finished this one either.
3) this one is sorta good...i just started it....there is this HUGE family, i think 11 memebers, and when the parents leave they all start dissapearing...dun dun dunn...
4) the F.R.I.E.N.D.S one
5) this is in Medieval Times and the present at the same time. there is this girl named Lady Elizabeth and she lives in a good castle.

:) Nice to meet a fellow writer :)
The plots all sound very interesting, I will be truthful with out though and I don't like books that deal with magic, especially magical 'things'.
It's in part because of my religion and my main book.
I like the one where they can control water and electricty, because that is similar to how 'powers' are dealt with in my alliance series books.
They deal with energy, there are 5 elements, Celestial, Fire, Air, Earth and Water.
Each of those has 4 sub-elements, except fire is just fire.
Those 5 elements in perfect balance gives the elements light and dark.
Light energy is drawn with feelings of happiness, and love, whereas dark is drawn with feelings of anger and hate.
I would love to know more about your books, I enjoy talking to serious writers, but I don't think this is the place for it.
My email is adriadracis@hotmail.com .
Fell free to email me to tell me more, or i love when ppl ask questions about my books, I have 19 in total.
Some of their plots need a lot of work, and i have one more not counted in the 19 that doesnt have a title, all i can think of for it is 'Tainted Love' after i saw that disturbed video by Marilyn Manson -shudders-
And I think I have one book that's going to split into two books, as a few others have done.
Sage of Sirens and Aphrodite's Daughters.
Which makes 21. And there is another which need to be split. By the titles arent there yet.
As I said, please email me :)
