still thinking about the sapnap bbh son and grandson paradox. in greek mythology familial relationships aren't meant to represent actual blood ties but rather they are metaphorically representing alliances or the validity of the power of certain gods, for example, any connection to zeus makes you important and therefore it is more logical that you relate your oc in your play to zeus than to i dunno, ares, although obviously if it makes sense thematically for the new character you want to introduce to be part of the war then you would make him his son, there's also something one dude said about kinship and the validity of patheons but I don't know much about that, it's so cool tho. what i meant to say is that of course when we look into the dteam's dynamic it is a father and son and that can be extrapolated to bbh being sap's grandfather and at the same time when we look at it through the sense that both he and dream are brothers he's his son, there's two relationships that symbolize different properties

I'm deeply thinking with these thoughts...
If Trickster Gods met each other. Do y'all ever think Trickster Gods have their own base to hangout?
Can they cause an insane amount of chaos in mortal realm when they hangout?
Damn this thoughts 💥

So many comments calling this guy Scar lmfao
Tumblr media
Pazuzu is considered a demon, but a quick Google search says he's a protector of pregnant women and mothers ❤❤ his rival is a demoness, Lamashtu, who preys on pregnant women and infants, so he defends mothers and their infant children from her.
That's so sweet 🥺🥺 I hope he's sweet in game. We need more espers that look dangerous and evil but are actually good guys.

I feel bad for my friends when they mention mythology. I nerd out so hard. I pull out all the theories and stories and shit. I could literally talk for hours about the crystal pyramids or roman mythology and I would never tire of it. It must be so annoying to ppl that don't want to know that much. But I love mythology. It gives us a peek into the mindset and culture of the ppl at the time. The greeks kept such good documents that you could see how and when most of the myths changed to reflect the general viewpoint and political climate of the age.

a beautiful man with long black hair dressed in all white sat next to me on the train back from denmark. i complimented his outfit, and he asked me where the train was going. after i told him, he then pointed at my shirt which says 'catastrophe' and said "oh i know a lot about those." and laughed uproariously.
and then he asked me "do you know about norse mythology?" and i said yes a bit because i read the edda a decade ago, and he said "i met fenrir in denmark" and i said that's probably not good if fenrir is walking around. and he said "oh don't worry about it, vithar will take care of it" and i replied oh but that's ragnarøk, that's still pretty bad for us mortals is it not? and he grinned at me like i said something incredibly funny. and then he ignored me for the rest of the train ride?

Arachnean task: a task you know you shouldn’t do but you do it anyway because of your pride
the fact that we only have “herculean task” and “sisyphean task” feels so limiting. so here’s a few more tasks for your repertoire
icarian task: when you have a task you know you’re going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down
cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW won’t listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)
feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated

I love it when men get pregnant. You may think I'm talking about omegaverse mpreg but I'm actually talking about Hurrian mythology.

In Armenian, when we want to say “damn you” or “go to hell”, we use the expressions "գրողը քեզ տանի" [groxy qez tani] or "գնա գրողի ծոցը" [gna (kori) groxi tsocy], which translate to “may the writer take you away” or “go and get lost in the writer’s embrace” in English. You might wonder, “Who is this writer-person?” and “Why is it considered a curse?”
According to traditional Armenian belief, Grox (the writer) is a spirit who records a person's deeds during their lifetime, determining the purity of their soul. This concept may be linked to Tir, the god of writing and literature in Armenian mythology. In some interpretations, it was believed that anyone whose name Tir wrote in his notebook would die. This is where the curse "may the writer take you" originates.
During the Christian era, Grox was mistakenly represented as a Christian spirit who no longer recorded human deeds but instead determined each person's fate, inscribing it on their foreheads. Over time, Grox came to be depicted as an evil spirit, sometimes identified with Satan. Thus, the curse "get lost in Grox’s embrace," which originally signified death, took on a more negative connotation. However, this was not originally characteristic of Grox in Armenian traditional beliefs.
So, if you want to get creative with your curses, instead of saying “go to hell,” you can use the phrase “get lost in the writer’s embrace”.
