God I have so much to say about Melinoe's characterization, and the fasinating implications about her future arc/the overarching plot of hades 2. I want to make a larger think piece with pictures but for the moment I'm just going to focus on this one specific thread.

In the wake of the Prometheus reveal, she has a slew of convos about his motivations for siding with Chronos, and the gods basically all go: this is his vengeance for us punishing him a tad cruelly. And Nemesis is like, yeah the gods 100% deserve it. But Meli's responds that he must have more motivation than just vengeance, it can't just be that. But when Prometheus explicitly goes, 'I'm doing this because the gods are horrible to humanity and I love humans,' she basically goes, no he must be lying. That motivation is both too pure, but also humans kind of suck why would you care about them?

Mel's humanity hot takes deserve it's own essay (Ms I think Humans should have never gotten fire and are better when they are dead), and I just want to focus on the former for now. She can not comprehend that Prometheus is fighting the gods for noble reasons. It just does not make sense to her. Mel's world is so black and white. She doesn't understand the nuance of the situation, and the thought that the gods might be actually in the wrong doesn't even get close to crossing her mind.

It's a fascinating (and horrifying) result of her upbringing. Of the constant state of war and the very convenient big bad that is Chronos, the evil monster who stole her family. If she accepts that his side isn't completely evil, that they might even be right in some (even many) respects, she would have to grapple with her whole life. Everything she believes would be thrown into question, the literal thing she was training her whole life for.

She can't have Prometheus fighting for a noble cause, because he fights for Chronos whose the Bad Guy tm. But he also can't be fighting for something as simple as vengeance, because that would also mean she would need to really think about what he's angry about. If the punishment was truly so unnecessary cruel.

When talking to Odysseus about Prometheus, when Ody's saying how much he respected him for stealing the fire despite knowing the consequences, Mel says that it was the price to be paid for breaking Olympus's decree. To her, Olympus's rules are sacred and ultimately good. Unquestionably. Prometheus broke the rules with intent, so to her, why would he be so angry at the consequences? Especially if he knew because of his power they were going to happen.

So he must have another reason, some secret machiavellian plan that drives him. Except as I already said, it brings her right back to him doing it for humanity, which she also can't accept. Because that would be admiting that the gods did something wrong to humans. She twists herself into knots to justify her worldview, and it's fascinating! She's so messy I adore her.

Please Supergiant please the final surface boss has to be a human pleeeaaasse (preferably a living one). Or at least have one (or more) show up in some other capacity. Mel needs to come face to face with the other side and have it utterly destroy her worldview.

And/or have (Pan)Dora betray her for Prometheus, that would also be very fun haha.

how much you wanna bet style is NEVER LETTING THIS GO.

style, 2 years later in their home: "hey can you take out the trash please, my dear mr hitman??"

style, yelling from inside the bathroom: "we're out of toilet paper!! mr hitman, can you please bring me some???"

style, in the middle of very off key singing at a bar: "this one is dedicated to my very own mr hitman sitting over there brooding in the corner~ i love you babyyyyyy"

the neighbours don't quite know what to think about this term of endearment, but different strokes and all that 🤷🏻‍♀️

why yes I do believe in snow leopard hyrbid! Satoru + black Jaguar hybrid! Suguru <33

and yes, I do believe in how incredibly cuddly and playful they get and how much love they show while wrapping their pretty long soft tails around you to show you their affection. <33

I do in fact believe in them nuzzling into the crook of your neck and purring pleasantly, battling out who gets to cuddle into your warm lap, making gentle biscuits next to you and following you around everywhere to just be with you. <33

I also do believe in them getting impeccably territorial with you whenever other males come around into their space (your home). Leering glares, deep hisses, ears pushed back and tails slowly weaving from side to side in a warning manner. Hands and tails would protectively/possessively wrap all around you, instinctively pulling you into their solid, stifled bodies. <33

they would get divorced in one universe just to find eachother in another one

alternatively titled: sometimes you're the level-headed token flesh-head impulse-control-and-polycule-member of a stubborn, eccentric, and hearty telephone-headed drug addict, and there's cruelty in the world you deem fit to suicidally fight, and that either goes about as well as you'd expect it to, or you learn about love and the value of your life and junk along the way

“The TARDIS wanted something and maybe it was this, maybe it was his hand holding the Doctor’s face, then neck, gently pulling him against his shoulder, and it felt like his lungs were filled with glass shards when the skinny body melted into the contact, exhausted, breathing wetting his shirt with tears.”
