I love when parents take parts of their names to make one name and give it to their child. Like your Mother loves your Father so much that she took a part of his name to give to you. And your Father loves your Mother so much that he gave a part of her name to you. You are proof of their love.

“Run your morning bath in sea foam Soak your milky skin in the tide Little pearl, you think you're in gold But I can see the dirt in your lines”

I love that this song is a narration of Hephaestus’ thoughts/emotions towards Aphrodite.
