First child of Aphrodite and Ares, god of lust, desire and unrequited love. One of the few winged gods. And as Ares' first son, of course he's somewhat furious, that Eros became like his mother with no regard or initial interest in warfare. And even if the boy knows how to handle bow and arrow, frankly his younger sibling is a bit better than him. And she isn't even as cold or confrontational as he is! One might think to know who the favourite is... But then again, desire is written inside every humans heart, isn't it?
So imagine his frustration, turned confusion, turned fascination with this seemingly human hero who's somewhat cold to his touch! How!? But interesting...
Second child of Aphrodite and Ares. God of requited, pure love in any form; romantic, friendly, familiar or unconditional. She doesn't have as much pressure on her from Ares. Not only is she, well... A she, not a he, but also younger.
That doesn't mean, that she doesn't know how to at least use a bow and arrow! And of course she will use them to protect her new found friends! I mean, they are... an odd bunch for sure. But hey, love falls, where it does and she does love them dearly!
