#also kind of boastful and prideful of her strength.

[lakevampire]

Have any Kurumi headcanons?

a lot. i'll put them in the tags

[rants-i-guess-idk]

Each of the hotel members represent a sin. Minus Lucifer.

Alastor represents pride. Need i explain it?

Angel Dust is lust. Again, do i need to explain?

Husk is greed. His entire thing is gambling and gambling is a form greed. Greed is also often associated with alcoholism.

Sir Pentious was envy. Envious of overlords and craving for that power recognition for himself as well. He’s almost painfully aware of the fact that he is weak and compensates it for his constant drive to improve his machinery. And he’s envious of Angel’s and Cherri’s close bond.

Vaggie is wrath. She is incredibly vengeful and angry, even if that passion is sourced from a good place. Her indignation stems from the fact that she was kicked out from heaven by being a good person for sparing a child. Her wrath stems from her desire to one up Lute in that sinners can be good people, and her wholehearted trust in Charlie.

Charlie represents sloth. Her goal is to make the lives of pride ring hellborn and sinners easier. Sloth, by the older definition, is the wanting to have everything basically at your fingertips and have no need to expend any effort. This could also be Alastor’s representative sin, but it’s mostly Charlie’s.

Nifty is gluttony. We don’t much about her as of yet so she will have to do for now as gluttony, or over-indulgence as i call it. Her obsession with cleaning could perhaps constitute for her “gluttonous” attribute.

Where am i going with this? Simple, each one will have to commit the opposite virtue of their sin in order to reach redemption.

Like in the example of Sir Pentious. Sir Pentious was redeemed via his act of kindness, for his self-sacrifice. The virtue of kindness is the opposite to the sin of envy.

So for Husk and Angel to ascend, they will need to learn to be charitable and perform chastity in some form. These go hand in hand, much like it seems that the show is leading towards. It is a large hope of mine for them to ascend together.

For Vaggie to return she will need to learn patience. Have patience in herself and others, have patience in the success of the hotel, in Charlie.

Niffty’s temperance will be her ability to let things go. To let a mess be a mess and not a picture perfect clean house. Messes are inevitable and constant, it is impossible for everything to be scrubbed clean of filth. Turmeric stains are proof of that…

Charlie is going to learn that diligence, that constant work, is what’s going to keep not only the hotel afloat but also keep the pride ring from over flowing. She will work her ass off everyday to make it easier, and at times it will seem to never work but it is. Never give up.

Alastor WILL learn about humility. At some point far down the path of this show will he see that being humble and subtle is most times the better option than openly boasting of his strength. Humility can still be “sinful” in that sense, that his quietness about his strength, his humility, will show more than tell.

In the end all of them will have their ascensions, in one way or another. By acting out the capital virtues at the moments of their second deaths.

Leorio had told Kurapika about this kind of Hunters "Everyone hates this kind of hunters. They have no honour or pride. They are just dogs out for a petty reward." to warn Kurapika from going down this path, but Senritsu, Linssen and Basho are all this kind of Hunters. Its naturally that Senritsu is a character we see out of Kurapikas POV and she is gentle and helpful to him as a charater we as readers root for, but not seen from Kurapikas POV she would indeed be this kind of Hunter and she is very aware of it and also very aware in what kind of light this puts her: "I chose this job because I thought one devil would know another.". Still, she chose this job and she did not hestiated to dive into the Mafia world to reach her goals.

Scripture Readings for Sunday November 3, 2024

2 Corinthians 11:31-12:9 (First Nations Version)

The Great Spirit (God the Father) who is the Father of our Honored Chief (Lord) Creator Sets Free (Jesus), who is blessed beyond the end of all days, knows that I speak the truth. When I was at the village of Silent Weaver (Damascus), the governor representing the ruler named Brave One (Aretas) was on the lookout to capture me. I had to sneak away from there by being lowered in a basket through an opening in the village wall.

It does not seem like a good thing for me to keep "bragging like this", but I now want to tell you about the sacred visions shown to me by the Great Spirit (God the Father). Let me tell you the story of a man I know, a follower of the Chosen One (Christ). Fourteen winters ago this man was taken up into the highest place in the spirit-world above. If this happened to him in the body or outside the body, I do not know. Only the Great Spirit knows. This man was taken up into Creator's Beautiful Garden, where he heard mysterious words that human beings are not permitted to speak. I will brag about that man, but as for myself I will boast only in how small and weak I am. It would not be a foolish thing for me to brag about this, because I would be speaking the truth about myself. But I will hold back from saying too much, so that none of you will think too highly of me beyond what you hear me say and see me do.

The things that were shown to me were so mysterious and powerful that I was given a thorn to stab me where I was weak, a messenger from Accuser (Satan) to prick my pride and keep me humble. Three times I begged our Honored Chief (Lord) to remove this thorn from me. "The gift of my great kindness will give you the strength you need," our Honored Chief said to me. "For the greatness of my power comes to the ones who understand how weak they are." So then I am glad to brag even more about how weak I am, so it can be clearly seen that the power resting on me comes from the Chosen One (Christ).

Luke 8:41-56 (First Nations Version)

A man named He Gives Light (Jairus), the headman of the local gathering house, pushed his way through the crowd and fell down on his knees in front of Creator Sets Free (Jesus) and begged him to come to his house. He had an only daughter, about twelve winters old, who was dying. As Creator Sets Free (Jesus) went with the man, the crowd also trailed along, pressing in around him from all sides.

There was a woman in the crowd who had been bleeding in an unusual way for more than twelve winters. Under tribal law this woman would be considered unclean. She was also required to warn people nearby of her condition by saying out loud, "Unclean! Unclean!" Instead, she pushed her way through the crowd to get to the Wisdom-keeper. She spent all she had on medicine men who were not able to heal her. She came up close behind him, reached out her hand, and touched the fringe of his outfit, and right away the blood stopped flowing. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) stopped, turned and looked around the crowd. "Who touched me?" he asked.

The ones who heard him shrugged their shoulders and began to look around also. When no one came forward, Stands On The Rock (Peter) said to him, "Wisdom-keeper, the crowds are pushing, shoving, and touching you, what do you mean?"

"Someone touched me", he said again. "I felt power go out from my body." Fear took hold of the heart of this woman, for she had not announced herself as unclean and even worse, she had touched a spiritual leader. The crowd might turn against her or even have her stoned to death.

The woman knew she could hide no longer. She came forward, trembling with fear, and fell down before him. In front of all the people she told the story of why she touched him and how she was healed right then. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) looked at her with kindness in his eyes and said, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace."

As they continued on, a messenger from the home of the headman of the gathering house came. With sadness on his face he said to He Gives Light (Jairus), "There is no need to trouble the Wisdom-keeper any longer. Your little girl had died." The man's heart fell to the ground, and grief began to creep over him. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) overheard and quickly said to him, "Do not fear, simply trust me and all will be well."

When they came to the house, Creator Sets Free (Jesus) did not permit anyone to go in with him except the child's parents and his most trusted followers-- Stands on the Rock (Peter), He Shows Goodwill (John the Theologian), and He Takes Over (James).

All the people there were crying for the little girl. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) said to them, "Do not cry. The child is not dead. She only sleeps." They mocked him and laughed, for they knew she was dead. So he sent them outside, and then, taking the little girls by the hand, he said, "Little girl, stand up!" She drew in a deep breath as her spirit returned to her body, and she stood up. Creator Sets Free (Jesus) had them give her some food. Her father and mother stood there, amazed beyond words, weeping for joy. Their little girl was alive! Then he firmly told them not to tell anyone what had happened.

tagged by: No one, I stole it <3 Ramblings about Darla under the cut

While it won't come up this early in her development, wrath has been Darla's downfall in her every iteration. It's her biggest defining flaw -- she's a sweet woman, she had a kind and gentle heart... but she's also very open, too trusting, too much faith in the world and not enough wariness to keep herself safe. It's always bitten her in the ass one way or another.

In the best outcomes, she goes through with her revenge upon those who hurt her, lives with the consequences, and makes peace with a side of herself she'd been afraid of. She burns bridges, but learns that it's okay to say no, it's okay to stand up for yourself, and that sometimes you have to bear your claws and fight -- if not for yourself, then for those who depend on you. She chooses kindness still, but like. Desna said knock you out.

At worst, she continues burying her outrage, her hurt, letting it all fester in a bitter cocktail that notably effects her mental health, turning her paranoid, miserable and prone to fits of mania.

Darla is a character whose journey sees her either learning to value and stand up for herself and roll with the punches, or finds herself broken by a world that will not soften its blows for her.

Imma try sending these two again:

Can I please request Hades and Athena(seperate) coming to smite a mortal who's saying they're stronger than the god, but end up developing a crush when the mortal kicks their divine ass?

I hope that makes sense, I'm going to send a similar one for Aphrodite :3

Mortal Reader Beating The God

FANDOM: Hades

Character(s): Athena, Hades

Type of Request: Headcanons

Note(s): This request is interesting considering the characters are literal gods. The gods are also not kind but I'll try to not make this request just "you're cute but I'm still going to kill you for that".

Ares was asked for later on so I added him to this post!!

Ares

He can’t help but be a bit amused when he hears a mortal boasting about how they’re stronger than him. He is the God of War. He knows many more ways to defeat someone than just physical strength.

Would go see you just to sate his curiosity, see if you’re even worth being under his boot. Even more amused when you begin challenging him. You have the pride of a God, that’s for sure. Which means it’s even easier to destroy.

Now you actually beating him pisses him off. It’s a good thing he’s a God and you’re a mortal because he can fight you as long as it takes while you only have so much stamina. He can also send some horrible beasts to your doorstep as well.

But instead he decides to offer you a deal. You do his bidding, and he’ll let you live. It’ll allow him to be close to you as well as still challenge you just so he can nurse his own wounded pride while you fight a Hydra or something.

Athena

Honestly, if a mortal is proclaiming that they're stronger than Athena then she would find some amusement just because she knows cockiness leads to great downfall.

When she goes to see the mortal herself, she becomes more irritated by them challenging her. And if they win? Well she has respect but is still annoyed.

Despite being annoyed, she does have those feelings. So, as a solution, she has to put the mortal through some trials to see if the mortal truly is worthy of her. Her followers would dwindle if they knew she was bested without challenging the mortal further.

It’s a good way to keep an eye on this mortal, to watch their progress and any growth they might have. It will also be fun watching them struggle a bit. She is the God of Wisdom so hopefully the mortal is more than just strength.

Hades

He really couldn't care less if a mortal declares to be stronger than him. He's too busy tending to the Underworld to deal with what's happening on the surface. If the mortal really wants to challenge him, then they can just go die and he might see them after.

Of course, once Thanatos brings up the fact that there's a lot more of his followers dying due to taking offense to this mortal's exclamations, that's when Hades will sigh and go and see what is happening.

Honestly he isn't impressed by the mortal at all. They can be physically stronger than him, strength isn't what he's the God of. So if the mortal does best him then that’s fine.

Would never state that he grew a crush on the mortal. His family would never let him live that down. So he just takes the mortal to the House as a “trophy” but it’s really so they can be close to him and he can get to know them.

[drops-of-moonlights]

redid the Codex/Keystone guardian Pixies’ designs! they needed to comply with the rest of the Pixie redesigns. Redone info for them below! as in, I actually bother to describe them this time lmao. Harmonia’s an OC, as a reminder!

The Five Keystone Guardians are the five Pixies in charge of, well, keeping the Keystones to the Gate of Relix protected and safe. In order, they are Concorda of Alfea, Athena of Red Fountain, the late Harmonia of Magica City, Ninfea of Magix’s Pixie Village, and Discorda of Cloud Tower. These five locations hold the pieces of the Gate Keystone, a mystical stone holding the power to the gate to Relix, a planetoid that was sealed away by the Order during the First Age of Magic, as they deemed its high energy dangerous to manipulate and knew it would be abused. Darkar is in search of said Gate, as a leftover of Darek’s deepest desire fused with Argulus’s insatiable greed for power. Aside from that, each Pixie helps run the school or village in certain ways.

Concorda is the Pixie of Information, who takes residence in Alfea’s Archives. She also acts as its librarian, occasionally helping Barbatea as some books are only under her jurisdiction. She has Livy as her messenger and helper, as well. Concorda, true to her Calling, is very reserved and studious, and can always be seen reading a book and enjoying some tea. Her powers usually translate into Sound-based magic, as well as occasional Wind and Earth. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was Lake Roccalucce.

Athena is the Pixie of Strategy, and usually assists with Fonterrossa’s classes herself - she’s considered the true Strategy professor, which sometimes annoys Alabaster, the ACTUAL Strategy professor. Prideful, but never boastful, and she’s known to have a bit of a softer side shine through from time to time. She never quite moved on from Harmonia’s passing, but she’s pragmatic enough to not let that cloud her judgement. Her powers usually manifest as Metal, Fire and Light-based magic. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was in the mountains, where the Order of Mana’s Paladin Academy would be settled years later.

Harmonia was the Pixie of Echoes. She was sweet and kind, and also incredibly skilled in combat for a Pixie - only Athena rivaled her strength. She was killed by the then newly formed Darkar to steal her Keystone, but didn’t go down without a fight - managing to weaken Darkar severely and almost disrupting the spell that keeps him in a semi-corporeal form, so that he could then be finished by the then brand-new Company of Light. As all pixies, she dissolved into Essence Dust when killed, and her Dust was used to keep Magix’s Tree of Life (which back then was on the verge of dying thanks to Dakrar) alive, making it grow healthy. Her conscience is believed to still be inside the Tree, but it’s mostly just a rumor. True to her Calling, her powers conveyed Sound-based magic and had amplifying effects on others. Her original post of safekeeping her Keystone was in the then budding Magica Village, soon becoming the biggest city in the planet.

Ninfea is the Pixie of Forests, and acts as head of the Council in Pixie Village’s politics, essentially being its mayor. She’s kind and just, qualities found in a good ruler, but she feels she lives in Harmonia’s shadow from time to time and as much as it pains her, she can admit she has grown to resent her slightly.  Her Calling’s the most direct, manifesting as Flora, Fauna and Water-based magic. Unlike the rest, she was always stationed in Pixie Village.

Discorda is the Pixie of Traps, and is the caregiver of Torre Nuvola itself, keeping the school healthy and pious. Appears grumpy, but is very amicable and talkative as long as they don’t do anything that makes Torre Nuvola do more work or be put in jeopardy, having a couple vendettas accumulated over the years, most particularly with the Trix but also with Professor Hecate, who might have been careless in her years as a student and wishes Discorda would just forgive her already. Her Calling manifests as Fauna, Earth, Healing and Water-based magic, and it helps her with ensuring nothing goes bad with her “dear Tower”. Much like with Ninfea, she had always remained in the same spot of safekeeping her Keystone - she also assisted with Torre Nuvola’s “birth.”

[kangen-wanshi]

Hi! May I request Bebin’s reaction to s/o putting almost too much effort into confessing (but he’s known for a while) and how the relationship blossoms? S/o usually being cool and confident but becoming oh so shy and flustered around him :3 Thank you!!!

"May I?"

Character(s): Bebin x Reader (Ousama Ranking; King's Ranking)

Warning: It's uh, Long.. I may have gotten a bit too into it. But it's most soft silent pinning! So none really, if there's any please remind me!

Note: Anon you made me head over heels for this man even more...

——

• Let's start off by the story as to how you meet him.

• You're Queen Hiling's only Lady in waiting, one who works as both her personal body guard and helper next to Dorshe. As he is the Queen's shield, you acted as her prideful protective blade.

• Which made it possible for you to be of acquaintance with the Big Four, including Bebin himself.

• Becoming the Queen's Blade means that you'd be asked to befriend Prince Bojji, not that you haven't tried yet. The boy was simply too timid and too scared to approach you due to your nature.

• But as he grew, he seems to be growing more comfortable with you. After seeing how great of a friend you are to his step mother as his mentor, (albeit he's still a bit intimidated by your overall personality, he have learned that you're still somewhat kind inside).

• Talk about the Prince, you clearly don't favour Bojji over Daida. Just as much as you're willing to look after the first born, you're also willing to assist the son of your Queen as best you could.

• And just as how you're able to befriend Domas through Bojji, you're able to befriend Bebin through Daida.

• —Which are obviously not your only objective. Sure you've been curious about the black dressed individual ever since your promotion as the Queen's Blade, but it doesn't mean that you'd use Prince Daida's training as an excuse to have a conversation with him.

• .. Or is it?

• You're not sure when or even how you've come to possess such interest to him. You're pretty sure the first time it was simply fascination and admiration, not some.. Silly crush that you're contemplating your life choice over.

• The way he'd greet you with a small smirk (or smile?) That formed under his moustache, the way he'd wield his sword proudly when he's sparring you, not underestimating your capability by one bit despite your difference in rank, how he would gently offer you a damp towel after a training session with Prince Daida, or perhaps how gracefully he is when tending to those snakes secretly behind the bushes.

• It's hard to tell. His expression is difficult to read as it's often filled with many thoughts behind it. Which, you're sure that you're no part of.

• Then again, what's wrong with having a small, yet huge attraction to one of your coworker?

• No one notices this, sadly. Not even Daida who's often in the spectating seat of your interaction with Bebin. You've become a figure of pride, confident and strength to him after all, it's hard for him to imagine you'd fall head over heels for his mentor.

• But fortunately, your Queen picked up on your feelings much quicker than anyone else could.

• She's been there -in love, that is. She knows the lovestruck looks, the silent blushes and the way your entire aura shifted when you're sparring with her son's mentor.

• So then what else can she do but confront you, really? You've done so much for her, sacrificed your personal romantic life to protect hers. Best she can do is to give you romantic advices.

• First time she admit that she knows made you flushed deep red. Your composure melts down in front of your Queen as she lightly giggle watching you plead her not to be too loud.

• Internally, she still can't believe you'd act so flustered like so after all that boasting and flashing your blade to your opponent that is.

• But she's not judging. She knows you like to show the world how strong you are after all. Even if that's at the cost of your timid inner self.

• Frankly, Bebin also knows about this.

• He's observant of everyone, obviously. He's had at least one snake to follow each of his comrades to make sure none of them are planning mischief behind Prince Daida's back.

• So first time hearing from his reptile companion that you've shifted your behaviour when talking about him to Her Highness is.. Certainly was a surprise.

• Bebin may be observant but he's not gonna go as far as to actually know that you have such side to yourself. "Shame," he thought to himself that he wasn't able to personally witness this hidden side of you.

• But nonetheless, the context of your conversation with Queen Hiling made him raised an eyebrow.

• You? Being flustered when being confronted about your feelings on him? Oh what could this possibly mean?

• Yeah he's.. He's definitely aware of it in an instant. You're not someone who would lie about such personal feelings to someone you've bond so close over. So the talk you had with Hiling about your admiration towards him was taken 100% seriously.

• Now he wonder what should he do with it though?

• He somewhat made it his personal side quest to see this new side of you himself instead of through his snake's hisses.

• The touches becoming more frequent, the knuckles brushing against each other was noted to his brain, the gentleness he gave through his calloused hands were pressed softly on your bandaged skin whenever he treats your wound.

• Safe to say he's kinda enjoying the teasing. Now that he's got his attention to you by 1000%, the slightest shift in your behaviour was noted to him.

• Oh he's loving it a bit too much.

• Though he doubted you'd confess to him on your own accord. Despite your somewhat adorable loving side, he still doesn't perceived you as someone who would let their personal feelings be mixed with your work life -especially as someone who's as important as the Queen's Blade.

• But your silent confession surprises him nonetheless:

——

"I love you," you silently muttered through your lips as you look down onto the ground. Your back is leaning against the tree behind you as Bebin stood next to you.

Ahead of you both are Mitsumata who's diligently training Bojji, both of you hidden under the shade of the trees, his dark eyes are fixated on the first born while yours are fixated on the grass beneath you.

You had planned this; not really. The plan that Queen Hiling had offered you is that you confessed to him in a place where the two of you had spent much time with. One which you questioningly replied with "The training ground?" Which she immediately smack you off with.

She had told you that she'll summon Bebin's attendance to aid you in cleaning her garden. A weird request, you noted her, but she told you that there's no other place more romantic nor suitable for a confession other than the white palanquin inside the castle's walls.

That was the plan. To confess your admiration and feelings there, not here.

So why?

Well perhaps the way the gentle light seeps through between the leaves, falling onto his dark aesthetic have made you lost your train of thought.

Perhaps your thought at the moment, had spur to the one where you just wish you can finally let go of these feelings. The wishes where you had dreamt of finally holding his hand fully in yours. One where you wished you'd be able to wrap your arms around him just how he would wrap his around your waist.

Your daydream was broken by the sudden train of doubt. What if you had become a fool? What're the odds that Bebin would most likely prioritize Daida's growth over your feelings? Hell, does he even feel the same way?

"I'm.. I'm sorry, that.. Came out of nowhere. I didn't mean t—"

"You would not let me reply to it?"

".. Pardon?" You look up to him, only to find that his raven eyes had been pulled away from Bojji, now staring back to you. Eyes slightly clouded by his bangs yet the reflection of the sun seems clear as you stare back up to him. "I.. Well I suppose I'd like to hear your.. Reply, about my confession."

Rejection is better than nothing, after all. Hopefully it'd let you move on better if he's said it through his lips.

"Well if it tickle any of your fancy, I do find myself reciprocate your feelings," he said it as a matter of factly, as he now find himself standing in front of you with his back towards the now forgotten training of Bojji and Mitsumata.

"Wait.. What? You do? You..—" once again, you can't really find yourself preventing the red creeping up to your cheek. Instinctively, you put up your hand to cover your face and immediately snapped your gaze away from him. Often used to being seen as someone confident; you're not ready for him to see this side of you yet.

Though to your surprise, he immediately grabbed your hand and gently pulled it away from your face. Finding his other hand now softly holding you by the side of your neck as he crane your face upwards.

"Mm.. You're not very subtle, even if you try to be," he chuckled. And God that chuckle. He knows exactly what he's doing when his scarred thumb gently caresses your cheek. "The confident and prideful Queen's Blade.. I wouldn't have ever dream of you becoming so.. Small, and timid, when it doesn't involve swords and fighting."

And with a gentle pull by your waist, he whispered to your lips with his moustache slightly tickling your cheek,

"May I?"

——

• Mitsumata dragged Bojji away from the training ground early that day <3. While the deaf little boy look at the three headed snake questioningly, he doesn't even want to inquire the details to the boy.

• Anyways, Bebin didn't tell you that he knows about your feelings all this time. Finding it rather inappropriate actually, the fact that he have his snake following everyone and report back to him.. Maybe that one is going to be his own little secret still.

• But now the slight touches means more than it did before.

• His hand lingers on you often when the two of your are in public or in the presence of the Royal. Often he'd hold you on the lower of your back. Subtle, and no one would suspect anything, but the warmth he sent down your spine with the gentle rub of his thumb is honestly all the comfort you need.

• In private he'd tease the living shit out of you <3

• Definitely will tease you with a smirk and a chuckle whenever you're acting 'out of character' when with him. You confessed that he's the only one permitted to see this side of you (with Queen Hiling sometimes as an exception). He takes a bit of pride in that.

• He loves you, he do, but he wishes to reveal the depth of your relationship to everyone after the matter of Prince Daida and Bojji had completed. Or easy to say, until the situation grows to a time of peace.

• He's a warrior, and so are you, his protectiveness grows 1000% after you two had become close. He doesn't even hesitate to carry you or openly show his concern in front of other when you returned wounded.

• Overall he'd be very loving still. Very touchy in private, but will never tolerate heavy PDA in public, and is glad that you somewhat have similar idea. The two of you are warriors. No matter how close or how affectionate you two are, if being slightly distance in public may protect the other from danger, you'd do it.

• After all, when the situation had calmed and the position of King had been settled, he wishes to be open about your relationship to the big Four and her Highness as well as the princes.

• As much as he enjoys the silent exchanging look of affection, he can't wait to be able to have your arm linked with his own, proudly calling you his and you calling him yours in front of everyone <3.

[kuravix]

He likes bugs and has plant attacks post-timeskip, so bug and grass types! He’s told stories about fighting along side Arceus, maybe they’ll become true someday? This is just my opinion and for fun!!!

Usopp’s first Pokemon was found as an egg that fell off a ship. He took care of it until it hatched into a Larvesta. Usopp liked to boast her strength when in actuality she was very weak. She at last evolved on Greenstone and is now incredibly powerful.

A wild Pinsir tried to attack Usopp. In his panic, he threw a pokeball. Miraculously, he catches it. Luffy is jealous. Pinsir considers Usopp’s slingshot to be his rival?

On Jaya, Usopp caught a Spinarak climbing up Nami’s back. She loves crawling on people, something Nami and Sanji absolutely despise. She prides herself in her large size.

What Usopp believed to be a carton of extremely expensive eggs turned out to be Exeggcute. They evolve into the very tall kind of Exeggutor on Greenstone due to the environment. He’s very jolly and loves showing off his height by putting friends on his head, often against their will. He handles the cold poorly so Usopp got him a big scarf.

Usopp caught a shiny Oddish on Greenstone, evolving her into a Vileplume during his time there. She loves to show off and is very proud of her colour and flower.

Carnivine was also caught on Greenstone. He likes clinging to his friends. Usopp developed a team attack where Exeggutor launches Carvine at enemies. Carvine greatly enjoys it.

Hello! can i request terra x gn!reader dting headcanon? mb reader like's to cook for terra various deserts that he might like (something like salt-caramel icecream)

Oh, I adore Terra! Thank you for requesting, I hope it's to your liking! Let me know if there's anything I need to redo~

Terra Relationship HCs

Dear sweet Terra has been through a lot in his lifetime, so I think he'd be more surprised at himself than anything if he managed to land himself a partner. Like...huh? Someone doesn't expect the world of him and adores him so much that they won't force their ideals on to him? (Geez, Terra, the bar is on the floor...)

A lot of the beginning of any relationship Terra has is going to be filled with quiet confusion on Terra's part so he kind of hopes you'll be lively and talkative to fill that silence. It's only because he's still stunned from when you confessed to him and you two officially became a couple. It's difficult for him to comprehend that someone could love someone who has done so much wrong in his life - he does still blame himself somewhat - and you just need to be there to shoot down these ideas: please tell him he's not to blame and remind him of all the people who are there to support him.

Eventually, this wall of guilt will stop being an issue in Terra's every day life and he'll feel a lot more free to show you love. I don't think Terra has any kind of concept of public displays of affection unless it comes to authority figures. So, even if you're together in public and if you're comfortable with it, Terra is going to be keeping you close with a strong arm and stealing the odd kiss whenever you let him. And hugs with Terra are simultaneously very comfortable because of his figure and terrifying...because of his figure. He's huge! Beware if he gets too excited, you might have to tap out by smacking him on the shoulder.

Terra absolutely likes to brag about you when you're not listening, boasting to Aqua about how utterly perfect his partner is, ignoring how Aqua is giggling behind her hand at how lost Terra is in his own musing. She thinks it's endearing and is definitely assigned to Terra as his wingman. If you ever need stuff to get to Terra in secret, Aqua's your woman!

She helps to organise most of the dates you go on with Terra because he is pretty useless at organising plans in advance - he's a very "in the moment" kind of guy. Aqua might help you make a romantic dinner and fill the great hall in The Land of Departure with beautiful candles and popori, or set you and Terra up for a Keyblade duel that turns into a very stereotypical "couples training together" montage. At first, she watches from afar to check that you're safe and not out to get Terra onto the darkside once again, but eventually leaves you both to your own selves. (She also has to distract Ventus a lot of the time to make sure he doesn't interfere and embarass you both with personal questions.)

Please treat Ventus like yours and Terra's son, I think that dynamic would be amazingly adorable. Grab both of his hands together and let him swing from your arms, try and make him dinner and dessert together (though Terra's not really experienced in the kitchen,) help him train with a Keyblade, and maybe read him stories together to get him to sleep.

I think Terra's love language for giving is separated between Quality Time and Gift Giving. If you want to watch him train or train with him, Terra adores it. He takes pride in getting stronger, developing that "strength to protect what matters" and both of you knowing that you are what matters to him - that's why he's training hard. He...may also just like showing off to you.

As for Gift Giving, the novel talks about Terra's wood-working hobby and about how he made things like furniture and ornaments/knick-knacks for The Land of Departure, and even the games show the wooden Keyblade Terra passed down to Ventus. So, I think he'd definitely see the romantic value in making useful and cute things for you as symbols of your everlasting love. Maybe he'll make little wooden dolls of you and him that connect together.

Then, Terra's receiving love language really depends. He's not used to romantic affection - he had never even seen anything to do with it until stumbling across Cinderella and the Prince. Therefore, he's open to anything!

Now! With the cooking/baking! The novel speaks of how Terra's rather...picky when it comes to desserts. He doesn't like anything too sweet and seems to prefer things with nuts. So something like salted caramel ice cream would be perfect for him, I think! The sweetness of the caramel and ice cream is balanced with the salt of the caramel - it's perfect for him! Kind of reminds me of the ice cream he receives as the Million Dreams Award!

I wouldn't recommend trying to incorporate Terra into the whole baking process though- He's got big hands and is pretty heavy handed as a result. If you do take the risk of letting Terra into the kitchen, expect something like egg shell in the batter or icing sugar all over the counter and the both of you. He tries, he really does! It's not his fault, he just has skills in other areas...

TWST FAMILY HCS PT2) Savanaclaw and Octavinelle

Feel free to tack on your own Hc’s too!!! I love reading what other people think and how their view of the characters and of Twisted Wonderland in general change from person to person!!!

Savanaclaw:

Leona:

-Farena: We already know Leona describes his brother as being carefree and relaxed, but deep under that I think he’s a deeply intelligent man (how can you run a kingdom and be stupid?). He tries his best to make time in his schedule for his wife and child, and even try to get bonding tike with his younger brother (which never works out well). He tries to teach Cheka as much as he can, often giving him little life lessons while they play games. He’s a very kind and straightforward man, often being blunt when he doesn’t mean to. He stands a little taller than Leona, with Orange hair similar to Chekas. He keeps his hair tied out of his face as much as he can.

-Sister-in-law Kingscholar: A strong and confident woman, not afraid to speak her mind when she wants to. She’s blunt and she’d let you know about it. She’s also very kind in her own way, often dragging Leona off and trying to have serious talks with him, which he appreciates but doesn’t show. She adores Cheka and often spoils him without meaning to, and will spoil Leona too (but indirectly in a way similar to Ace’s father’s). Also very intelligent and good at reading people. I think she stands a little shorter than Leona, but she holds herself higher, and he slouches, so it looks as if they’re the same height. She has long yellow hair (again, similar to the ends of Cheka’s) that she often ties back as well.

-Cheka: We already know him, so heres a few Hcs!: He sometimes asks his mother to do his hair the same way as Leona’s, and tries to do everything like him (such as standing like him, trying to deepen his voice to sound like him, throwing sand at various objects in the castle yelling “King’s Roar!!”)

Ruggie:

-Grandma Bucchi: As he said himself, a stern and prideful woman. I think she’d be on the stricter side, having to teach Ruggie how to survive rather than him having to face those hard truths alone. She likely stands a lot shorter, likely 5’0 (sorry to anyone whos that height), than most other beastwomen. She’s a lot physically stronger than she looks, often still trying to pick Ruggie up at his age. She tries to spoil him when she can, trying to make him relax after working and taking over the household chores (which he declines, still cleaning up when she’s not looking- which earns him a smack to the head with a broom). She’s also a prankster, quietly jumping out from corners and scaring Ruggie or one of the other children. I think she feels a lot of regret over seeing Ruggie grow up so fast in the environment that he had, but she’s the proudest grandma ever. Whenever he sends pictures back she boasts to everyone at home (“See that! That’s my grandson’s school! See that there! He plays magift and is one of the best on the team! Look there! He’s got those nice ceremony robes!”), and even boasts about him with what little baby pictures they have (“See him walking at such a young age? Isn’t he so strong?”) Will never stop talking about her grandson, ever.

-Neighborhood kids: I think they’re like little siblings to Ruggie, so I’m adding them. They try to tale over what Ruggie did when he was at home, helping people fix up their houses or entertaining the baby hyenas when their mothers have other things to do. They also leave gifts to Ruggie when he comes back, between little dolls they made, bracelets they thought he’d like, charms, or pretty rocks and leaves. He keeps all of the gifts, no matter how small.

-His mom (bc the poor woman deserves a spot)(Poor meaning unfortunate)(The more i think abt it, both. It means both. Bad time?): I think she looked a lot like him, but with brighter blue eyes than his. She was definitely a prankster at heart, leaving clever traps behind for any poor soul to get stuck in. She was a very hardworker much like her son, taking on any task she could find to help out her mother. I think she’d try to leave as much behind for Ruggie as she could, which would include little notes and scribbles about how she was feeling throughout her pregnancy and how excited she was for him. Ruggie also kept all of those safe and sound, in a small box he keeps in the corner of his room.

(Can you guess who my fav chara is?)

Jack:

-Grandma & Grandpa Howl: A very loving couple, who always make time out of their schedule for their grandchildren, whether it be for school events, emergencies, or if any one of them want to come by and talk. They met when Grandpa Howl got lost and wandered by Grandma Howl’s family’s cabin (which happens to be the one they, and the rest of the family, still live in to this day) and he spent the night. I think they fell in love at first sight :’)

-Mama Howl: A very soft and loving beastwoman who is willing to sacrifice anything for her children. She is often strict, and sometimes a chatterbox, but she always reminds her children to stay safe and that she loves them. She always pats their head or cheek when she walks by, even if she has to reach a little to plant a kiss on Jack’s forehead. I think her hair would be a little darker grey, and she’d definitely be a little more muscular and taller, reaching six ft one when standing straight up. She’d have the same yellow eyes as Jack, and her hair would be cropped shorter due to her still moving around a lot.

-Papa Howl: Very similar to Jack personality and appearance wise. He stands an inch or two shorter than Jack, but is still very muscular due to working around the house and in the woods (chopping wood for the campfire, dragging around tools, carrying three wolf pups at a time in his younger days (only one now wants to be carried, which hurts the poor man’s heart a bit)

-Baby brother Howl: Huffy and a little moody, but a hard worker even if he complains while doing it most of the time. That’s often with his parents, but when he does something with Jack he doesn’t complain a bit. He’s very attached to his older brother, looking up to him for his strength and strong morals. He often compares him to superheroes and star athletes in his mind, but sometimes it slips out, resulting in one very embarrassed wolf boy and another very flattered wolf boy, ignore their wagging tails, it means nothing. I think he stands pretty tall for a preteen, around 5’7-5’8 and growing taller by the day. Same hair and eye color as Jack. Acts like he doesn’t like to play games with his younger sister but will never turn down a game of tag.

-Baby sister Howl: An absolute sweetheart. She just wants the best for her family and will do whatever she can to make what they want happen. Jack is hungry? Good thing she made her special dessert (it’s a poptart with whipped cream messily piled on top with sprinkles and literal sugar cubed wedged in it, but don’t tell her you don’t like it, please she’d actually bawl). Her other older brother is tired? She can get him extra blankets! Mama needs help cleaning? She can mop (she really just throws water on the floor and praises herself for a job well done). Papa need to cut wood? She can- no, she can’t. Please don’t give her an axe. She’ll cheer him from the sidelines with a song she made up just for him instead! She has their mother’s grey hair and father’s dark brown eyes, and loves to do her hair like the princesses she sees on Tv! (Yes, Jack will wear a too-small dress and Tiara if his sister wants to play princess. No, he will not let anyone take pictures.)

Octavinelle:

Tweels:

-Mama Leech: At first glance, a very kind woman with soft eyes. Willing to open her arms to anyone who might need help. Then, a terrifying grin similar to Floyd’s as that poor unfortunate soul realizes the trap they’d been thrown in. She’s very kind and patient towards both her boys and husband, as well as their friends (even of she is on guard near their friends, throwing a few hollow threats to see if it’d scare them away)(She doesn’t like to share her babies). She dotes on the tweels as much as possible, indulging im whatever curiosity they may have. Floyd wants to know what going through riptide is like? They leave tomorrow to find one. Jade wants to know more about life on land? She’ll find as many books as possible and ask (threaten) people for their land belongings. She knows when too far is too far though, and is very skilled at reeling the boys back in if they get to that point. Will always call them her little guppies, no matter how big they get. I think she’d have a teal bob on top, with the underside of her hair being black (which makes her hair look color changing when she swims). Im her human form shes only a few inches shorter than her boys, ranging around the same as Jack’s mother.

-Papa Leech: The definition of old Hollywood New York mob boss. Strict and blunt about his interests and problems, and not afraid to cause any problems if provoked. When the tweels were younger and they’d wrestle and bite at him, he’d throw them off him easily, telling them they need to work to beat him, even if he was impressed by their teamwork at first. Will die to protect his family, and was likely put in that position many times in the past due to his uh… business. He values his wife and children more than anything, and has done everything in his power in the past to protect them from harm. When they went to NRC at first, he felt defeated and almost wanted to beg them to stay safe with him (not that his pride would allow it).(Both the tweels can see through his facade easily)

Azul:

-Grandma ‘grotto: A very stern and prim octomermaid. What she says goes in the Ashengrotto house, and she often catches herself making unnecessary comments. She does apologize. Also a very loving grandmother towards Azul, often babying him whenever possible (doing the classic “you’re not eating enough here take some more” grandma move)(She will smooch his face whenever possible when there are no business clients nearby). Tries to boost his confidence since she knew about what was happening to him (Chances are she went through the same thing- being an octomer as well) and dod her best to protect him and make him happy. She taught him how to write with his tentacles and encouraged him to do his best in everything he does.

-Mama ‘grotto: Another businesslady in the front absolute softie in the back situation. Adores her son and is incredibly proud of how far he’s come.I think she looks identical to Azul, but more heavyset and, of course, female. She coddled Azul as much as possible, which worked out well with baby Azul’s clingy nature. She had no shame in walking around with the little guy stuck to her (unless he smacked a tentacle to her face when she was working on her restaurant), and made sure everyone knew what a good boy he was. She would show pictures to everyone (similar to Ruggie’s grandma), but respects his wishes in wanting to hide pictures of his past. She still shows anyone who asks pictures of him at NRC (compliments to the twins, who send her updates when her son is busy), and will tell everyone how smart he is and how much he’s grown.

-Step-Papa grotto: A very professional man in every aspect of his life, which stretches to his relationship with his stepson. When he learns about the contracts and Azuls UM, he’s over the moon with how happy he is. He swam around with a little more pep than usual, flicking his tail and flaring out his fins the more and more Azul told him. He helps him reword and format his contracts to his advantage, and is always willing to talk with him about Mostro Lounge or (on rare occasion) some memories before Step papa Ashengrotto met Mama Ashengrotto (which always make him happy that Azul trusts him enough). I think he’d be a pretty generic looking Mer, with an average looking tail and such

Akainu x Motherless Daughter Part 2

Hello again, thanks for the wonderful headcanon, it was quite uplifting to read your version about Akainu as a father. May I ask for for another headcanon with the dou? How their relationship would be, when she joins the Marine in late teenage years as a soldier. Sweet as ever and respectful, but when she is made angry it is dad's temper + monstrous strength. Luckily it takes ALOT to push her to that point. Do the officers know 'who she is'? Thanks again.

@iamemmalindberg

The day his daughter joined the marines Sakazuki was extremely proud but he was also a little worried on the inside. After all he knew the dangers of the job well. 

He wouldn’t outright boast that she was his child, wanting her to succeed on her own and not by his name. 

Of course some will know her and so she will have a hard time getting out of her father’s shadow and even more so making friends. 

Having grew up a navy brat she knows protocol like the back of her hand. 

Sakazuki will have also taught his little flower combat skills. Never wanting her to be helpless. 

He comes to watch her train on his slow days without her knowing. Standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed over his chest he will watch her closely. Later he will talk to her about ways she can improve.

His chest puffs up with pride when others talk about how respectful and clever his flower is. 

Sengoku would also be the one to pick up on her kindness and when he brings up how she is like her mother in that way Sakazuki would have to dip his head at the clenching in his heart. 

He wishes everyday his wife was alive to see their daughter grow into the amazing woman she is. 

When she is sent off base for her first mission he can’t help but be a more moody than usual. He tried his damnest to get her to transfer to his unit but she was determined to walk her own path.  

The whole time she is gone he is constantly glancing to the denden on his desk, waiting for any news. 

Once her unit gets back he will wait patiently, he will not rush to the docks. 

The moment she walks into his office though he is standing and moving over to her, his eyes scanning her for any signs of injury.

She gives him a quick rundown of how the mission went before having to take her leave but not before the two of them make dinner plans. 

Later hearing from some of the others there that his little flower had apparently inherited her father’s temper made his have to hold back his chuckle. 

If she was to ever get hurt on a mission he would quickly make his way to her hospital room as soon as word reached his ears. The man looked to be on a rampage as he barged into the room, frightening nurses and officers. 

Seeing his baby girl injured made magma drip from his forehead and onto the floor, melting the tile instantly. 

He would likely seem angry when she woke but she knew him well enough to know he was just worried. Listening to him go on about how she could have done something differently and how she knew better than to go into battle alone she would remain silent.

His anger is quickly dwindled when she gives him that soft smile, her mother’s eyes shining at him. That won’t stop him from personally punishing the people responsible for causing his daughter pain later though. 

He is not surprised at all by how fast she climbs the ladder and so one night after she is given a promotion he will take her out to dinner. Looking across the table at the now grown woman he will wonder where the time went. As her kind eyes met his he will raise his chin and give her a rare smile (well his version of a smile) and say the words she had always wanted to hear. “I’m proud of you.”

Athena

Greek goddess of logic, truth, intelligence, knowledge, wit, wisdom, war, battle strategy, heroism, protection, law, justice, order, good counsel, skill, victory, and handicrafts

Athena (Roman: Minerva) is the magnificent goddess of Truth, she is a tremendous being of light who ensouls the cosmic consciousness of Truth and grants it to the world. She is the guardian over all knowledge and despises ignorance, facing it and destroying it like light ripping through darkness. She was one of the most important goddesses of Ancient Greece and is said to have led the Greeks to their homeland and supported their development by teaching them many things. She was also their greatest protectress and would valiantly defend them while defending their cities, even mentoring them in particular battle techniques. As a very complex goddess, Athena would watch over many areas of life, including all forms of education, crafts/inventions, and philosophical thinking. She also is one of the three Virgin goddesses (along with Artemis and Hestia) who are never swayed by romance or lust, since Athena values being solely devoted to the realm of the mind. 

Mythology: Many ages ago when Zeus was less moral than he is nowadays, he was very jealous of anyone who threatened his position of power. When he learnt that his wife, Metis, the goddess of wisdom, may birth his successor, he became desperate to end their lives. Zeus devoured Metis while she was pregnant, thinking this would secure him. But when the time came, Zeus began feeling tremendous headaches. As even he couldn’t bear them, Hephaestus struck Zeus with his axe and Athena leapt out of Zeus’ head, fully armed and with a furious cry. This frightened some of the deities, but Zeus, however, was delighted and full of pride. In this story of Athena’s birth, we see her as enraged wisdom that fights as a defender and upholder of justice.

A popular myth of Athena is the story of Arachne, a mortal craftswoman who boasted that she was more skillful than Athena herself. Athena offered her a chance to repent, but after Arachne refused, she challenged her to a weaving duel. The goddess fashioned a beautiful tapestry which illustrated the gruesome fate of the mortals who had the hubris of challenging the gods. Arachne, on the other hand, chose to depict stories of the mortals unjustly victimized by the gods. But she didn’t even have a chance to finish it for the enraged Athena tore Arachne’s fabric to pieces and turned her into a spider. As such, Arachne is doomed to weave ever since. This was a myth written by the Greeks as a warning against hubris, and does not portray an actual event, especially since Arachne is actually a goddess of spiders and wasn’t a cursed human.

Roles: Despite Athena’s connection to war, she moreso represents the strategy behind it and the ability to protect and bring about order (whereas Ares represents battle-lust, Athena fights out of necessity). She was also known to bestow victory in war, as she is at times seen accompanied by Nike, the goddess of victory. Through these connections, Athena is the patroness of heroes and is known to wisely advise them in their quests and grant divine weapons in times of need.

Other than the art of battle, Athena is known as a skillful inventor and even holds the title of ‘protectress of agriculture’. She is represented as the inventor of the plough and rake: she created the olive tree (the greatest blessing of Attica), taught the people to yoke oxen to the plough, took care of the breeding of horses, invented the bridle, instructed people how to tame horses, and much more. At the beginning of spring, offerings were given to Athena in advance for the protection she was to afford to crops and fields. Besides the tools of agriculture, Athena was said to be the inventor of numbers, science, hand-made crafts, chariots, and other such helpful things. 

Athena is a magnificently powerful goddess who can easily strike fear into her enemies. In times of battle, she is known to have lightning flashing from her eyes, and can even overpower Ares himself with her strategic mind during combat. She is peace gained through battle, courage gained through struggle, and clarity gained through wisdom. She has explained to me that the Aegis (the head of Medusa) on her breastplate represents her victory over her own shadow, the part of one’s psyche that creates negative emotions such as fear or cruelty. This is a true mark of wisdom and shows even further just how glorious Athena is. She can always be relied upon for sage advice in any matter, and knows how to directly tell someone what needs to be done or how they should change to become better. Athena says that she is also the goddess who inspires women to be more than their domestic roles that are pressured on them. She inspires rebellion in their hearts and teaches them how to fight and overcome oppression. Thus, Athena is the glorious warrior goddess of illuminating truth and courage; there is nothing that can break her down. 

Appearance: a tall woman in her 30′s with long brown hair, gray eyes, and wears either a white dress or silver armour

Personality: Overall, Athena is wise, intelligent, serious, diligent, straightforward, courageous, determined, perfectionistic, and a steadfast protector of peace. She has a very strong sense of morality and is able to keep calm and collected under a great deal of pressure. She loves to spread knowledge to others, but does not guide us through everything since she seeks to make her devotees independent. She greatly values strength of character, open-mindedness, and the desire to make oneself better no matter what. Athena can be a bit motherly at times with those she likes, but not too much in a “soft” way but more like a quiet and dedicated mother who wants the best for you. Although she does not have much patience for most people, especially if they are unwilling to take responsibility or overcome their ignorance. She also has no patience for people who disrespect her or disregard her nature as a virgin goddess. When Athena is angered, she becomes terrifying and cold. Lightening begins flashing out from her eyes and is relentless in bringing her fury upon whoever offended her. 

Athena is very empowering and knows exactly what to say when her devotees feel down or lost, for she can see past clouded emotions and into the clarity of truth. She also hates injustices of any kind and seeks to destroy all ignorance. She is a very protective warrior and an Illuminator, following the path that Lucifer teaches about wisdom through adversity. She is also a very close friend of the goddess Lilith, so they work well together for gaining Illumination. One of the most sacred animals of Athena is the serpent, which sheds its skin to be reborn, making it a symbol of wisdom and knowledge. This is one of the lesson that she often teaches to her followers, that their current self must die to be reborn in wisdom. In some of her statues, a giant snake can be seen beside her.

Myers-Briggs Types as Songs from my Greek Mythology Album

The album is called From the Kindly Ones, and it tells the stories of figures in the Greek Underworld, from the point of view of the Fury Alecto, who punishes or otherwise knows them. Each one teaches a lesson Alecto feels the figure needs to learn, or features some other opinion the Fury has. 

There are 16 songs, so I figured, why not? Each blurb includes the title, the type, a sample lyric, and some explanation.  There are four sections of the album: Kings, Queens, the Innocent, and the Guilty.

The lyrics are here, and the entire album (a rough acoustic recording) is included here if you want to listen to your type’s song! 

I. KINGS

Dictator - INTJ

It’s no fun when you didn’t want to be the ruler of the world ? But the job is yours, there’s no denying

Hades’ song is about a man in an unwanted position of power, forever set apart with terrible duty and ability from the rest of his kind. But he was granted this broader perspective of the world for better or for worse, and I think the INTJ Mastermind type can relate.

Peaches Before Gold - ENTP

You earned the gold / You made the score / You saw a win and made it yours

Midas’ song cautions against ambition and greed trumping interpersonal relationships. While he gains unimaginable wealth, he becomes unable to show his daughter what he’s won. ENTPs can be prone to falling into a need to “win” above all else.

Down - ISFP

Death is no giant; it’s more of a king / Small like a tyrant, and just as inevitable

Sisyphus’ song details why he is condemned to roll a boulder up a hill forever. He was cunning and creative, and managed to cheat death more than once, for which he was punished. The ISFP’s individualism can sometimes make them believe that rules don’t apply to them.

The Dictator Remix - ENTJ

Lie on the chaise lounge while they lower grapes in front of you / Go on, keep chasing the high like the dictators do

Tantalus’ song is a mirror of Hades,’ showing a man who grasped at power his whole life, trying to cheat the gods, only to hurt those around him and damn himself. The ENTJ can be incredibly focused on success, but needs to understand humility to be truly powerful.

II. QUEENS

Friend of Fury - ISTP

You drew a bath of roses and you stood behind the king / You heard it then, the sound of blood when it decides to sing

Clytemnestra’s song depicts a woman taken advantage of her whole life, who finally breaks the chains of society to take revenge on her husband. The ISTP is an independent, practical soul who often thinks against the grain and is willing to take swift action, like this queen.

Upside Down - ESFP

You’re a creature of ego, oh Lady in the Chair / To see Aphrodite’s face beside your own could grant some clarity

Cassiopeia’s song tells the story of a vain queen who boasted of her daughter’s beauty above that of a goddess. While ESFPs can fall into the trap of vanity, they (like this queen) also have strong bonds with others, especially taking pride in their families.

The Queen of All The Ghosts - ESFJ

I was once like you / I was once a martyr, too / You, a sign of spring / Me, a warning of the justice I would bring

Persephone’s song gives a glimpse into the mind of Hades’ wife, and how her internment in the Underworld was more her decision than the myth leads us to believe. Like the Queen of the Dead, the ESFJ often makes quietly strong decisions for their family and for their own needs.

III. THE INNOCENT

Good Boy - ISFJ

If they would listen to your words and not the mouths that they escape / I think they’d love you, dear

Cerberus’ song is a sad one, but it’s also full of compassion. The three-headed dog is most often seen as a terrifying figure, but the narrator of this song sees him as an innocent. The ISFJ’s desire to care for others and natural gentleness is on full display here.

Falling From Grace - INFJ

So climb the stairs to heaven while I wait here on the ground / Paying no attention to the bodies raining down

Icarus’ song warns against perfectionism, following the story of a young man who up until now has easily navigated the patterns of life. INFJs are prone to god complexes due to their ability to see beyond the surface of life, but they may come crashing down if they are too reliant on it.

Coins - INTP

‘Cause the ferryman will take it from under your tongue / Doesn’t really matter if you die young 

Charon’s song covers the ferryman’s singular interest in his mission: ferry souls across the Styx and receive payment for it. The INTP can become completely fixated on a certain topic, neglecting all else to puruse what they deem most interesting at the time.

Follow Me, Prelude - ISTJ

One, too bound to his lyre / And one who a liar kept in the ground

Orpheus’ and Eurydice’s songs are preceded by this very short prelude. While it’s the shortest song on the album (sorry, ISTJs!), the practicality of this piece lines up with the ISTJ’s. They are also very to-the-point, and these lines pack a powerful punch, summing up the next story.

Follow Me, Pt. 1 - ENFP

What you wanted was a mystery, even to me / Why do I follow you when I don’t even know where you’re leading me?

Eurydice’s song is the only one on the album from the subject’s point of view, rather than the narrator’s. The story of her open heart and innocent nature mirror the ENFP’s, idealists who may find themselves in the sad position of loving those who cannot love them back.

~

IV. THE GUILTY

Follow Me, Pt. 2 - INFP

Should I listen to men who would tear me apart? / I’m sorry, my love, but your face isn’t worth my heart

Orpheus’ song depicts his devotion to his art and ideals, and how that extends beyond his devotion to Eurydice. The fiercely individual and creative INFP needs to balance their focus on ideals with reality and relationships, which Orpheus has unfortunately failed to do.

Visitor - ESTJ

Hera saw it in your heart (she held it there herself, you know) / And so she knew how it could stain your darkest clothes

Heracles’ song is about the demigod’s disproportionate strength and rage, and how Hera manipulated both to cause his life harm. ESTJs are strong-willed and tough, and need to be careful of allowing their rigid tendencies to break the softer world around them.

Doomed - ESTP

Sitting on the head of your father’s coffin / Sitting on the bed while your mother’s watching

Oedipus’ song tells the story of a man told of his dark fate, who fulfills it in his effort to avoid it. ESTP individuals are bold, which can come at the price of taking opportunistic risks. Like Oedipus, they could end up acting on something with unexpected consequences.

To Cower, To Covet - ENFJ

Theseus, do you think of your friend in the pit? / Pirithous — condemned, while you got away with it

Theseus’ and Pirithous’ song shows the double standard of condemnation when a slight is personal rather than impersonal. The ENFJ is an idealistic leader who may, like Hades with these young men, hold others to a high standard - but who also may be too hard on themselves.
