#Ares

I like to imagine that part of Ares’s beef with Percy comes from having to listen to Aphrodite every night squealing over the romance of percabeth.

My take on Neal_illustrator’s DTIYS on instagram!

With my Aphrodite and Ares designs, but the same composition as hers

ARES God of War

My boyyyy

I have a very soft spot for the war pup, he deserves all the love. This is kind of my Slipping Through my Fingers design for him, but it's not too different from the original EPIC one I made last year. I think he turned out quite nice :)

Fun Fact, Ares is the fourth oldest sibling in Fighting to be Loved and my other EPIC fanfic, and the second oldest in Slipping through my fingers. In the latter, he's definitely closest to Athena out of all their siblings, and he's the first, and for a very long time, the only one who learns about Pallas. He's such a darling honestly. Also when I use the animal forms of the gods, he gets wings, like from a vulture :)

In the spirit of posting 'oldie but a goodie' while I desperately try to scrape together actual new content, here are some hades Olympian gods I drew for the sake of making them into badge pins!! I definitely want to draw them all at some point but for now I started with my favorite three

[incorrect-xena-quotes]

Ares: What must it be like to live in your head? Are there happy ponies in there? It’s really something how utterly delusional your optimism is. If it didn't irritate me so much, I might even be impressed.

Gabrielle: Huzzah! I got a heavily qualified and slightly sarcastic compliment from Ares!

I just started Hades — haven’t even made is out yet — but WHY is every piece of Hades fanart INSANE??! Like everyone here is hella talented

day nineteen: if you had to assign one song to each of the deities you worship, what songs would you choose?

music that i can do! let's do this~

dionysus: the world has gone insane - jekyll and hyde

hermes: way down hadestown - hadestown

ares: damnation flame - amaranthe

hestia: tradition - the fiddler on the roof

zeus: megaverse - stray kids

aphrodite: aphrodite - ashley sienna

hades: the phantom of the opera - the phantom of the opera

some of them just kind of make sense, others i had trouble picking just one! also if i did every single diety i worship this would take all day so just the few that are more present in my worship.

31 Days of Hellenic Polytheism

Anyone can participate regardless of how long you’ve been a Hellenic polytheist! My hope is to use these questions to reflect on the year, and repeat next year to see what has changed, and hopefully to continue doing that every year!

Answer in as much or as little detail as you see fit. You are allowed to skip any questions that you are uncomfortable answering. These questions can also apply to heroes, not just deities. You can pick specific deities to answer each one, or answer the questions with all the deities you worship. This might apply to other Pantheons and I’m happy for it to be used as such. Feel free to tweak some of the questions to fit those pantheons if you’d like!

Please link this list on your posts with your answers so that it is easy for others to find if they want to participate too after seeing your answers.

THIS IS TO BE DONE DURING DECEMBER, I’M JUST POSTING THE LIST NOW SO PEOPLE CAN FIND IT!

Have fun!

This was my gift for Rex for the Hades gift exchange. Ares!

[ephemeral-roses]

I'm still a little sad that Eros won't be Ares' son :(

He is not his biological son, but he still is Ares' son. Their relationship, along with his relationship with Himeros, will not change between what is in DFP and what it would be like if they were actual blood-relatives.
