a conversation with prometheus:
(a short thing i wrote :3 (shoutout to my friend evie who helped me with edits))
'You are angry'
'I am' Prometheus frowns 'we all are,' he gestures a hand down to the earth, peeking out from under clouds 'I most of all, am disappointed, but I cannot say I am surprised. I saw it, only I had hoped I would be proven wrong','
'I'm sorry,'
'I know. I find I cannot be angry at the individual, but humanity in general, that is where I place my rage, my disappointment. The tragedy of wasted potential, you, the people, to which I gave that what was denied, despite the torment I knew I would face, because in you I saw hope, I saw life.' He watches as the lights over earth glow 'intelligence which I once gave has now spread into a virus uncontrollable. Humanity was always meant for greatness, you are art and art is you. to create, your soul demands it of you, and yet you have decided to create not art, but war. You have taken the breath Athena, blessed upon your minds and devoted it to destruction,'
'It hurts me too, I don't want to destroy, I want to live,'
'You can't,'
'Why?'
'Death surrounds you. You exude it, those who survive it are the ones which make it, even if unwittingly'. He points now to Greece, there the light burns bright, a violent red compared to the industrial yellow 'My homeland, she burns. You, which were made from Gaia's blessed clay, have killed your mother, and in turn she takes from you that which she wrongly gave. We have invested in you all that we are, and you have transcended your need for us. This I can forgive, for I have always seen that in your future, but to spoil not only yourselves, but the animals, and the earth. unforgivable,'
'I'm sorry,'
'I know. That is your curse, you know it is wrong, but you have surpassed the time for change. A virus should be killed young, before the infection can spread deep enough to take root in the very essence of the body. You should kill it even if no one else sees it, even if they will shun you for it, call you a murderer, kill it before they know how to hate it. I gave you fire, and I suffered for your progress. Give them now life, and you shall suffer in turn, but bare it, for the burden you carry is lifted by the lives which you save,'
'I can't,'
'I know, humans, you violent little things, you have armed yourselves with weaponry fit for a beast, to fight against an enemy with only his voice, to fight against your brother, '
'What do I do?'
'What you can,'
'But I can do so little,'
'You are capable of so much more than you know, it is fear that holds you back. a fear of hatred, of falling, of dying,'
'I don't want to die,'
'You must. You will. Make it count.'

So... I found this and now it keeps coming to mind. You hear about "life-changing writing advice" all the time and usually its really not—but honestly this is it man.
I'm going to try it.

pen pals with lady hestia
{a little concept i thought of recently}
i love communicating with my deities, listening to them, feeling their presence, but i am not the best when it comes to speaking. talking no matter to who is quite uncomfortable for me, so i have been looking for different ways of communication.
and i think i settled on letter writing.
the concept of pen pals is very appealing for me. having a sense of community, bonding with someone and not speaking. also i love writing in general, journaling, poetry, etc.
what my pen-pal letters look like
very similar to "normal" letter you can see when searing for pen pals, on tumblr, pinterest. the only difference is that the person that i am writing to will not anwear me with a letter of the same structure.
what do i include
the most important - the letter, it can be something like venting, asking for help, thanking or simply just talking about whatever i feel like
poetry, specifically about dedicated to her things, concept that reminds me of her, or just poetry written when i was feeling cozy
prayer, i have a few that i wrote for her, and for pen-paling i try to write it more elegantly, on a nice piece of paper with a nice pen
drawings, doodles, even if it's just a doodle of a hot cup of coffee
tea bags, i don't have any coffee beans or bags so i run with tea, something that smells nice, and reminds me of her
a recipe card - something i plan to make and dedicate to her
quotes - it is usually from media that i consume and that reminds me of her, sometimes i include little phrases i came up with throughout the day
of course, every letter i make is different, and so for you it will do so much different too, i only want to share to inspire you, and maybe help you communicate with your deities, because of course feel free to use this idea to communicate with other deities not only lady hestia

i am about to bestow upon you the secret butter technique. i am sorry, but it is french. i am sorry again, this only works with cow butter. i am certain plant based butters wouldn’t work, and alternative animal butters may or may not work
has this ever been you: you have a nicely steamed vegetable, or maybe you want to make the best butter noodles, but you know that if you put butter on those it’ll just melt and you end with kind of greasy noodles or vegetables? don’t you wish it was instead a luscious buttery glaze?
introducing: beurre monté
you will take a small sauce pan, and begin heating it with 1-2 tablespoons of water (use very little water) and bring it to a hard simmer or boil
turn the heat down slightly, and add Butter. how much? however much you dare. (start with 3-4 tablespoons and go from there)
you are going to either whisk Aggressively or you can pick up the saucepan, still holding it over the heat, and swirl aggressively so the butter is skating around the sides of the pan
done correctly, you will have liquid butter that is still emulsified. you have made Butter Sauce. season it with a little salt, and toss whatever you want in it.
if you’re butter splits, i’m sorry. you didn’t agitate it enough to maintain the emulsion, and now you have melted butter.
you can use this knowledge to make other sauces by swapping out the water for another liquid. white wine becomes beurre blanc. red wine is beurre rogue.
you want to CUM? sweat minced shallot in a tiny bit of butter, add white wine and cook it out until it’s reduced by about half. then whisk butter in hard. a few flecks of minced thyme or fennel frond stirred thru, and you eat that with a nice seared fish? or scallop? or even shrimp? wow. you will Nut
your boxed mac and cheese game can also be elevated by cooking your pasta and making a beurre monté first, tossing your pasta in that and adding the cheese packet. wow. hey; you’ll cum
go forth now with this butter secret

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

*booktok voice* Do you want to read a gay story about two guys who speedrun enemies to lovers, go against their designed nature by being together, who become unstoppable fighting side by side to much dismay of the gods who created them? Do you want to see one of them eaten alive by the grief for his lover when he dies from a godsent sickness? A book about someone fighting so hard for a chance at eternal life that he doesn't notice he is throwing away the precious time he has got, filling it with agony? Well, in the 2100 BCE poem of Gilgamesh-

you guys Need to start seeing bugs as animals im not even joking anymore. the second u start seeing them as tiny animals the more your world opens up and the more you accept different types of life Into that world. youll begin accepting that even life you cant understand is still worth living. and itll legitimately make you a better person. fuck
