RS Be Like: I'm Not Going To Make Hera And Zeus Siblings Because Incest Is Disgusting. Therefore I Will
RS be like: I'm not going to make Hera and Zeus siblings because incest is disgusting. Therefore I will make both of them sleep with their in-laws.
Even if they aren't related in LO, it would've been way more interesting if Cronus would've slowly start to perceive Hera as his own daughter in time. And the worst part is that Rachel couldn't even think of Hera manipulating Cronus through her intelligence or cunning. It had to be sex.
It took me centuries to figure out that one of my favourite dynamics from fiction is the problematic father-daughter one, where the father is either a villain or a very morally grey figure and the daughter has mixed thoughts and feelings about it, but ultimately wants to be loved by him.

Emily and Kozmotis Pitchiner

Minos when he saw baby Asterion for the very first time:
I hindsight, inserting a nightmare fuel picture in my post instead of just adding a link was probably a horrible idea. Now I'm getting random jumpscares every times I'm opening my Tumblr. 😭
The idea that there could be any sort of connection between Athena and ants is actually quite fascinating.
There is a myth of a woman named Myrmex whom Athena was in a relationship with until she pretented that she invented the plough. She was then turned into an ant by the goddess. Furthermore, I've seen some people on the Internet claiming that Zeus ate Metis after he tricked her to turn into an ant, yet I cannot find any sources that state this version so I'm not going to take it as valid.
But the main reason why I like the idea of Athena being associated with them is because they resemble her to some extent. Ants are known for their intelligence and complex social structures. They built their own cities, farms, garbage dumps and cemeteries. They have 250.000 brain cells, which is quite a lot for an insects and also one of the reasons why they're considered some of the most intelligent ones to ever exist.
At the same time though, they are SCARY AF. They are the only animal besides humans known for domesticating other animals and keeping them as pets. They also have slaves. And they also kill their old friends after they turn into "zombies" (old story). There's also an ant speies where there are only females. They're not reproducing themselves through sex, but through a process similar to cloning.
Also, they can carry things 50× times heavier than them, so it would be enough for them to be the size of a cat in order to wrestle the shit out of you.
Also also, here's how ants look like under a microscope:

Anyway, I'm not sure where I'm going with this post, but Athena being associated and/or having connections with ants would be an interesting concept in my honest opinion.
Charon's appearance varies from that of an ugly old man to an eldritch sinister monster in modern pieces of Media. But one physical description which I find to be quite interesting, yet I've never seen being used, is him having burning balls of fire for eyes.
Here's one passage that suggests this possibility:

Dante also described him as having eyes of fire in Canto III of the Inferno. On top of that, his name is usually translated as "fierce brightness", which might be an allusion to his eyes.

And again, I don't remember any character design for him where he has "fire-like eyes". Now I'm really curious to see how would he look like if someone would draw him like this.
Bellerophon is perhaps one of the best examples of a greek hero who can equally make you either emphatize with or completely despise. On one hand, he was sexually assaulted by a queen, which is quite rare both in real life and in Greek Mythology and still doubted by many people. So having another example of a man being abused by a woman is welcomed. On the other hand, he did a LOT of reckless and/or cruel things, including brutally murdering the Amazons at King Proteus' request or believing that he deserves to live among the gods and trying to reach Mount Olympus.
And yet I haven't seen anyone talking about him.
Saying that Newton was asexual is not a fact, but an opinion based on what we know about his personal life. However, one of the reasons why I consider that asexual people find him relatable is because there are lots of individuals on the Internet who either mock him or doubt that he remained a virgin for the rest of his life, despite the fact that Newton was actually very proud of himself for that.
There's this mentality that a man has to lose his virginity as soon as possible and sleep with many women (or at least visibly show his sexual desires and urges) because otherwise he would be considered a "loser". So seeing a man being proud of his lack of sexual attraction can be easily perceived as eldritch curiosity.
