Apollo may be a god, but Lester's brain is very human, with some very human security risks.
More doodles from that fic idea where Niobe kidnaps Lester Apollo and brainwashes him into thinking he's her human son, to get some long overdue revenge on Leto.
Niobe's covering her bases. She's not just relying on Circe's magic manipulating Lester's memories, she's stacking those effects with some hypnosis & even some (banned for being dangerous) attachment therapy techniques. Poor Lester's head is gonna be such a mess, it's gonna take more than water from the River Mnemosyne to sort him out.

After a whole month of no more posts until now (I did have free time but my latest university assignments have chewed right through it), the full image of this came to me yesterday in what's akin to a divine revelation.

Currently sitting in a Pizza Hut stuffing my face with wings. Anyways, first question: What’s the wildest myth or variant of a myth you’ve encountered regarding Apollo? This can range in terms of “wtf” to “this is oddly specific, and whatever the person who thought of this was on probably went extinct centuries ago. Thank all that is holy for that.”
Second question: What is the myth or variant you find most particularly interesting regarding Apollo?
Third, completely unrelated: You’re amazing. That’s all. Cheers. <3
Hope the wings were good!!!
Question 1:
I once heard a variation of the birth of Apollo where Leto gives birth to him in the form of a wolf. Why? Idk, but it sure is a detail LMAO
Question 2:
I think the myths of Niobe and Marsyas really put him into a more complex/interesting light.
Allow me to explain.
Often times, gods will deal out a punishment even if it is rather extreme, and not make any amends for it.
However, he's something interesting with Apollo.
If we take the variation where he spares Niobe's youngest son (which I do, for reason to be explained!), he does try to make amends for it!
How? Via Nestor, king of Pylos! He's in The Iliad and is quite the prominent character too boot.
So, how did he make amends? By granting Nestor a VERYYYY long life! He did this because Nestor's ancestor was Niobe's youngest son, and to (sorta) make amends for it, Apollo extended his lifespan to include six (?) lifetimes- one lifespan, for each son he killed.
In some Marsyas variations, Apollo also rips the strings off his lyre and refuses to play, because he is so wracked with guilt over what he did! These things really show a very humanized side of him, and fits very well with his overall characterization because remember, this is the man who cried a literal river over Asclepius's death! This is the man who orchestrated Achilles's death to avenge his sons! This is the man who time and time again shows great emotion, and I love that the god who is essentially the god of humanity itself has this capacity for emotion!
It makes him sooo complex i love it <3
Third:
ahhhhh! thank you!!! :333 you're great too!!!

I’ve seen way too many people justify the murder of Niobids by saying Niobe was a bitch
Must have gotten possessed by Artemis and Apollo

Another reason why the matrix is woke af, is in enter the matrix when you choose Niobe.
For a little background Niobe runs into Persephone trying to get to ghost cause he’s in trouble and Persephone does the whole “u gotta kiss me thing”
And she comments on how she knows Niobe has a lover, but until after the kiss she uses gender neutral pronouns instead of assuming Niobe lover is a man. Then after the (2nd) kiss she actively acknowledges that her lover is a man instead of assuming, saying: “your lover is a man. What’s his name?”. Ughhhh I love it
(And then niobe responds with “Jason” and Persephone is all like “tee hee, no it’s not, and he knows that”)

It just clicked that Indira Varma was Suzie Costello in Torchwood and in Kenobi as Tala Durith.
