the return of persephone by frederic leighton (1891)

[lhavibid]

I wonder how Mel's Character development will go in future updates. The most obvious one is her realizing that the good aren't that great.

me, putting more symbolism into elias' story without even consciously realizing the Direct Story Connections:

[sarafangirlart]

Somone: Oh so your were friends with Athena and Artemis when you were little girls? It must have been so piecfull, and magical!

Persephone, who remembers one time when she was picking flowers, then Athena and Artemis join, it was too boring for the later so she decided to climb up to the top of a tree, to pick a flower, whaile Athena was yelling from the top of her lungs at her, then Artemis fall off the tree right on top of Persephone, then the three started yelling at each other, and to the time when the adults arived the three were playfully fighting in the mud: Yeah.

Such an underrated sisterly relationship.

Thinking about Ethan and his almost paradoxical relationship with Nemesis hours.

In some ways, it's odd to see Ethan being placed in such a position of importance in the army where most of the people were there because they wanted to overthrow their parents for treating them the way Nemesis treats Ethan, who he is devoutly loyal to. Nemesis ignored Ethan and left him to rot as an unclaimed kid in the Hermes cabin until she needed him, at which point she claimed him and immediately gave him the task of getting her respect. She didn't see him as a son, she saw him as an employee and a tool she can use for her own gain. This is exactly what demigods don't like the Olympians for. They use their children as a cheap labour force with no regard for who they are as people and children. Ethan fighting for Nemesis is no different from Luke fighting for Hermes and being completely devoted to him.

I find it kind of sad that when Ethan turned against the army and attacked Kronos, it didn't come with him realising Nemesis was just as bad as the Olympians, he defected because Kronos' desires didn't fit what Nemesis wanted. He was so deeply devoted to her that right up until the end, it was her he died for. Not his own goals, not for Percy's sake. He died because Kronos was a hindrance to her plans.

I can't help but wonder how the other demigods in the army saw Ethan and his relationship with his mother. I don't think he would have told people about the eye thing (he was very defensive about it when Annabeth asked and he only told Percy in the moment when he officially joined Kronos) but I imagine there would have been rumours going around and the people he was closest to him would have known or had some idea. If they did know, would they pity him? Not for the eye (not just for it) but for his unwavering devotion to her. Maybe he reminds them of the siblings they left behind at camp; still holding out hope that their parents really do love them and if they can just prove they're worthy of it, everything will be fine. Maybe it infuriates them that he's in a position of power in an army with half of its recruits dedicated to taking down people like his mother but he just lacks any self-awareness to recognise he is simultaneously fighting for and against the same thing. Maybe they see themselves in him, or an older version of themselves who would have gladly given everything they had for the love and respect of their parents. Maybe they see a part of themselves they are actively trying to fight.

getting emotional about moomin and snufkin again….

[soxendanso]

Inspired by the scene in the 70s Moomin show where Moomin gives Snuf an amuet, here he is, holding it like Persephone and her pomegranates.
