Poseidon is the one who's so relentless in his persecution of Odysseus for Odysseus' blinding of Polyphemus _ not that bad an act since Odysseus was acting in self-defense and only wounded Polyphemus. Now Hephaistos has been wronged, but when it's not Poseidon own son's honor (and thus his own honor) in question, he becomes the voice of reason, all for brokering a deal. Ironic.
The other noteworthy relationship between Poseidon and Ares that I can think of (especially relevant for an Athenian audience) is that there's a story Ares once killed a son of Poseidon's who had raped/tried to rape an Athenian girl. The gods formed a court and Ares was acquitted of murder at the spot known as Areopagus (where Athens' murder court was established). But surely it's ironic Poseidon stands up for someone known to have killed one of his sons.
Hephaistos is an analogue of Odysseus, not to mention Penelope, with his cunning woven contrivance. But rather than killing the 'suitor' who is taking his wife, he's content to humiliate him. That's inevitable because: what else are you going to do with an *immortal* adulterer, kill him?
But you could reverse this and see Hephistos here as acting like Poseidon. Poseidon wants to kill Odysseus, but is forbidden to do so by his big brother Zeus, the ultimate arbiter. So instead he makes Odysseus suffer.

Ares
In Greek mythology, Poseidon is generally considered more powerful than Ares. Poseidon is the god of the sea and earthquakes, with control over vast forces of nature, while Ares is the god of war, more limited in his domain.
Ares mated with Triteia, the daughter of Triton.
Hades and Poseidon were the only uncles of Ares.
Agraulos [daughter of Kekrops king of Athens] and Ares had a daughter Alkippe. As Halirrhothios, son of Poseidon and a nymphe named Eurtye, was trying to rape Alkippe, Ares caught him at it and slew him. Poseidon had Ares tried on the Areopagos with the twelve gods presiding. Ares was acquitted.

Mars is to Ares. In Roman mythology, the god equivalent to Ares in Greek mythology is Mars.
Ares is not necessarily Poseidon's weakness; they are separate Greek gods with different domains. However, in some myths, Ares does clash with Poseidon due to conflicting interests or territories, especially in relation to war or control over certain realms. This rivalry can lead to conflict or tension between the two gods.
ares (god of war) is a brother of Zeus, Poseidon, Aphrodite, and and Hades. he controls the wars that happen and where with his brothers permission. Hades and ares were the bad blood of Kronos and Zeus Poseidon were good. Aphrodite was the golden child but was a women
