Sometimes I Get So Invested In Fictional Realities, I Forget The Real World SUCKS

Sometimes I get so invested in fictional realities, I forget the real world SUCKS

Apollo and Eros be fighting about whos the better archer, meanwhile we all know it's really Artemis

Just vibing in these tags while my religion videoconference runs in the background :)

Narcissus is the ancient greek equivalent to falling off a cliff trying to take a selfie.

and Ecco is a simp

Thats the post.

So in the illiad it states that all olympian gods gathering at olympus was quite a rare event and reserved for special occasions, but like, what did that look like? The Zues fam at dinner?

Just Hera and Athena being very devoted to a conversation about weaving while desperatly trying to ignore Zues intensly flirting with ganymedes (his """personal cup server""")

Meanwhile Aphrodite and Ares almost falling of their chairs making out, Hephaestus right next to them, incredibly uncomfortable.

Dionisus passed out already even though its been like 10 minutes, Ariadne and Hermes trying to figure out how theyll get him home.

Artemis failing to convince Hebe not to go for this Heracles guy because hes trash, Hebe "accidentally" spilling all the nectar onto her.

Hestia and Demeter exchanging recepies, while Demeter keeps glancing over at Hades angrily, who's attempting to get drunk enough not to hear Poseidon talk about horses anymore.

Apollo chugging little bits of abrosia at Eros mumbeling something about his true love of the day, acidentally hitting Eris instead. Eris immediately prepared to start a fight over it gets reminded by her sister Harmonia to "do the breathing options we talked about"

Persphone and Amphirite both already done with this crap taking a walk outside in the gardens talking about flowers and work staff, even though Persephone is a little worried someone might get hurt if Hades is left alone with the family, Amphirite doesnt care since at least she wont have to clean up the mess her own husband makes this time.

Iris returnig from delivering a message, deciding to just go home and come back tomorrow instead of losing her faith in the gods by getting closer.

I dont know why I wrote this??? I just cant get that scene out of my head. Have nice day.

Trying to make a list of all lovers of Apollo and their fates.

My process?

-Absoloute failure trying to find a complete list

-Reading random Hymns/Myths/Articles/Poems that have nothing to do with Apollo and then stumbeling over the author casually mentioning: "Oh by the way, they fucked apollo that one time"

-Researching that person and finding 20 different versions of the myth, one of them being the seemingly inevitable "they got that power/fate cause they fucked apollo AU myth version"

-Increasingly growing concerned about the ammount of people turned into plants

-what in the name of hades is the deal with apollo and hermes????? I cant find any actual basis exept the homeric hymn to hermes in which hermes is, well, a baby, and shippers from the renaissance making weird paintings of the two

-when will the poets stop clarifying whos the top and whos the bottom??? I really REALLY dont need to know. pls help

-I cant find anything useful about hyacintus on the first 10 pages of google cause some 11 year old wrote an opera named hyacinthus and Apollo

- to be fair Mozart was kind of a big deal but the opera wasnt even that good you guys :(

-why is the Apollo glasses shop telling me its LGBT friendly ??? Like, firstly, why would that even be relevant? Its glasses? Thanks for not spitting at me for not seeing straight I guess ._. Secondly... Lemme do my damn research U WERENT EVEN WHAT I WAS LOOKING FO-

I was mildly upset 😌

Mabey ill make a post with the complete list if I dont lose my mind before that ;-;
