That's like going to someone's birthday party and congratulating your friend who isn't even there. It's a head turner for the mortals present, and maybe a glimpse from the gods.
Though I doubt Apollo is really paying attention so we shouldn't have to worry about annoying him by doing so. And if we do, he'll probably just give us a cold to let us know he heard, and he is displeased by our cheek.
As for getting insight into drawing the attentions of the gods, I doubt there is anything we can actually do special. It probably comes down to the individual god(dess) in question, their domain, and their personality. Which we can only know one of for sure, since we're probably not going to be able to spend enough time (if any) speaking with a god to know.
Thetis doesn't count, fuck you, Thetis. I know you're watching from the shoreline, cunt.
