Hey just a reminder that thought crime doesn’t exist and pretending to have empathy is just as good as having it! You can be the world’s biggest dickhead in the privacy of your own mind and as long as you’re outwardly kind it literally Does Not Matter

i actually really needed to hear this. love this outlook, thank you.

Imagine I did something really funny and just

Athena stared at the younger version of herself, as she seemed to almost bounce around her with a liveliness she hadn't experienced in hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

"When did we get such cool armor? I really like the helmet!" The young goddess exclaimed, eyes sparkling with naive curiosity and wonder. Her wings were fluffed up with excitement, a wide, almost cocky smile on her face as she looked up at her much older counterpart. "Woah! And we get taller? That is so cool! Do we get to go back to Olympus?"

Athena struggled to find words, her hands shaking, breath caught in her throat at the sight of the seashell necklace.

"Do we get to go back to Olympus? Oh, does Pallas come with us?!"

Her helmet cast a shadow over her face as she looked away, expression unreadable, making the younger version of herself stop in her tracks.

"... What's wrong?" She asked, looking anxious suddenly at the silence of her older self. Slowly, Athena took her helmet off, letting it dematerialize in the air, revealing her scarred, tired face. Young Athena's eyes widened slightly at this, as she cautiously took a step closer. "What... What happened to us?"

Tears well up in Athena's saddened, exhausted gray and yellow eyes, staring into the bright blue of her younger counterpart. She dropped to her knees, stifling a sob with her hand, her armor suddenly feeling cold and suffocating against her skin. The young goddess took note of her burnt hands, the intricate markings on the left side of her face, the fatigue plaguing her being. Her eyes were full of pain, so much pain.

She took a few more steps forward, putting her unscarred hands on her older self's armored shoulders.

"Did... Did something happen? Did we do something? W-why aren't you answering me..." Young Athena shook her with desperation, growing more serious the longer she remained silent.

Suddenly, Athena pulled the young adult into her arms, trying to shield her from the grief, the pain, the overwhelming sorrow and self-blame that she couldn't escape from. Young Athena tensed as the soft cries, but hesitantly hugged her in return, lightly rubbing her back to try and comfort her.

"It's not your fault," Athena spoke suddenly, hugging herself tighter, "Nothing that happens is your fault. It was never your fault, do you understand me?" She sobbed, desperately trying to drill the words she never believed herself into her own head. Her younger self was silent for a few moments, reluctantly squeezing tighter, her voice breaking slightly.

"What did we do...?"

reblog to tell your mutual you’re proud of them and it’ll all work out

My brain is being mean today, so would any of y'all be interested in an AU where I make Zeus even worse than usual?

I have this vision in my head of where when Athena is born, Zeus, upon remembering the prophecy about how she'll be be better and smarter than him and Metis combined, basically decides to make her into his own personal weapon so she'll never try to overthrow him.

He does this in secret so that his brothers and the rest of the council won't realize what he's doing and try to turn her against him. It ends up turning into a sleeper agent/winter soldier kind of situation, with Athena basically blacking out when he gives her certain orders.

Pallas's death is one of those orders.

More, including Apollo and Athena angst, under the cut!

And up until God Games it works really well for him, but when she defies him over Odysseus he reacts the way he does in most of my fics and gives her brain damage.

From there, because I love me some angst, he brings Apollo into the same kind of training, basically wanting him as his own personal healer and a way to get his weapon back to full health more quickly.

But pulling in Apollo turns out to be a massive mistake on Zeus's part, not that he realizes it at first, because Apollo is kind to Athena in a way that no one else on Olympus has ever been. He talks to her, heals her, treats her as her own person and not an extension of Zeus.

Athena latches onto him hard, the two of them becoming extremely close and protective of each other.

Zeus actually makes things worse for himself on that front by further isolating the two, basically setting them up in public to be seen as his favorite children and turning the rest of their siblings against them.

Eventually, several millennia later, Zeus gets so out of hand that even Poseidon, Hades, and Hestia(though not Hera) agree that he needs to be brought down. So they call a meeting with the rest of the Olympian Council to decide what to do.

Apollo and Athena are in attendance, but they're both extremely worried about what Zeus will do to them if these efforts to overthrow him fail and he finds out they were part of it.

Aphrodite ends up using her charmspeak on Athena at some point* and Apollo freaks the fuck out upon seeing Aphrodite make Athena 'Go Gray' as they call it.

*Not sure why yet.

Apollo shoves Aphrodite away from Athena and it breaks the charmspeak, waking Athena from her trance.

Athena then also freaks the fuck out, asking Apollo what she had done in a total panic because holes in her memory never mean anything good for anyone.

Apollo calms her down, tells her what happened in detail, then flashes them both out.

Chaos descends.

Apollo pops back in 10 minutes later to threaten Aphrodite into never doing that to Athena again.

And that's all I have so far, but I'm working on more

Dp x dc idea 137

Danny uses Constantine to avoid humans from time to time when he is phantom.

The first time it’s was an accident. He blames vlad.

Vlad chasing phantom. Constantine yelling at Vlad about targeting a realms ghost. Vlad won’t reveal himself as plasmius.

Second time. Also by chance. Why was the guy in amity anyways?

Giw shooting at Phantom. John having a crisis about the US government targeting realm ghost.

Then it became a thing.

Ghost hunters? Hides behind John.

Vlad being vlad? He is one with the trench coat.

John is just trying to investigate amity in peace. Not be used as a hiding place by a baby ghost.

Meanwhile Danny found a safe place to hideout and he is going to ham it up. Definitely annoy the guy. But hey people aren’t easily able to kill him.

[englandsgirl18181234]

Danny had no idea how Vortex had caused such a big commotion that it impacted the inhabitants of Atlantis, but he had. Now he had to attend a meeting with the King and Queen of Atlantis to apologise for the inconvenience.

Meanwhile, Arthur and Mera had heard from multiple sources that the being that caused so much destruction from above the ocean was from a place called The Infinite Realms and the one they were going to have a meeting with was the High King. They'd learned that the Infinite Realms was a parallel dimension full of ghosts.

What in the world could a monarch of an afterlife want from Atlantis?

Silly Game Time: Who's an ursine (bearish) character you like, and why?

They could be literally a bear (an animal), a hybrid with some other creature or a human, a shapeshifter or werebear, or even a person who is simply bear-like in appearance and/or vibe. They can be from any media (movies, shows, books, comics, games, etc.) (OCs count, too, if you like).

Based purely on vibes from my first listen and how he's said to look in the actual myth, I'm gonna go with Polites from Epic: The Musical.

Yeah, I know, really surprising for those that tend to go with common fanon headcanons like him being a medic and a pacifist and a beanpole and what have you.

He just gives me that kind of vibe because bears are smart, they're chill up until the moment they're not, and he's not actually a twink in the original myth. That came from his visuals in the more popular animatics being based on his VA. He's actually said to be like, the second biggest guy on the ship!

I don't actually subscribe to the common fanon of him being a medic either. I firmly believe he was a soldier and that's where his philosophy during Open Arms came from. He went through 10 years of war, came out the other side with the scars to show for it, and was just tired of the violence.

I also think he was exaggerating quite a bit during the first part of Open Arms, as a way to get Odysseus to be a little more like who he was before the war. He could see that his best friend was struggling a lot with the guilt of what he'd been forced to do, and wanted to lighten the mood. They're joking, playing around, being the young men they didn't get to be because of the war.

He greets the lotus eaters the way he does because they haven't proven to be a threat and treating them like one could cause them strife later down the line. They're clearly not human in the musical, making it much more likely for them to have the favor of a god, and all they had done so far was welcome them.

He doesn't back down from his philosophy after the Odysseus tells him about the lotus because he's trying to prove a point. That they'll get further with being polite than they will with meeting everyone with violence.

Sorry, I got very off track from your original question. I have a lot of complicated feelings about Polites and the way he's portrayed in Epic, and particularly by the fandom and how they emphasize the few things we know about him. Because he's basically a non-entity in the Odyssey. I don't think he even has any speaking lines from what I remember. Or if he does, it's very few.

So yeah, complicated feelings aside, Polites.
