immortal apollo kids headcanons!

this is specifically for the rrverse versions of Apollo's immortal kids! but feel free to think about it in the mythology context too! :3

Hymenaeus

still has a room in Apollo's palace

still sleeps in it

but he also has a room in Eros's because he's an Erote

this makes for some awkward situations when Apollo and/or Eros have to go to the other's place to grab him for something or other

they basically share custody of him

divorced dads behavior

when he was little he tried to get people to marry his dad because he reeeally wanted to plan his dad's wedding

technically, he succeeded, because he was the one who made Apollo/Cyrene's marriage official XD

his hair is fluffy like a sheep's fluff. also somewhere between strawberry-blonde and a very light amber. and reaches to just under his chin. don't forget the floppiness tho >:3

has his dad's bright blue eyes

LOVES his dad's swans. and corvids. he loves birds.

probably because he also has wings

wings are brilliantly white with a soft pink and gold flush

never looks older than 16

many of the other Erotes find Apollo hot. Hymen is distinctly horrified to know this.

Himeros: Your dad's a DILF

Hymen: a what?

Anteros: don't you dare-

Himeros: A Dad I'd Like to FUCK-

Hymen: *much screaming*

Ialemus

also still has a room in Apollo's palace

as a matter of fact, he still lives in said room

his room is also in apollo's basement (he wanted it there)

he is the emo kid. but he's also not necessarily antisocial

he just likes his solitude. and honestly, mood

imagine dragons is a favorite band. and hozier. he likes "slower" songs as well as sad ones

has Apollo's long hair, but in a very dark brown

has vivid green eyes. like radioactive ones.

likes ponytails

cows are his favorite animal

they are calm creatures he can ramble too so he likes them

knows a lot about things. comes with listening rather than talking ;)

WILL infodump

Apollonides

these girls are the PARTY KIDS

they are the ones throwing parties in their dad's house at 2 am

they also still live in Apollo's palace

frequent clubs and discos; can be seen at concert venues and are in many of the big city concerts (ie, Las Vegas, Madrid, Vienna, ect.)

Borysthenis is the 'oldest' (Hypatē - the lowerest & first string on the lyre); has curly brown hair and dark green eyes

Apollonis is the 'middle' (Mesē - the middle string); has Apollo's blonde hair, but straight, and dark eyes (crow-like, even... >;3)

and Cephisso is the 'youngest' (Nētē - the highest string); has poofy black hair and silvery-blue eyes

Hypatē has a comfy sort of style, such as sweaters and sandals

Mesē likes to wear aesthetically dark clothes with silver accents

Nētē wears blouses and loose jackets

one time they highjacked the sun chariot and got away with it by pulling the puppy eyes

they have demigod children in CHB

Asclepius

the baby

died at 15- still treated like he's 10

snuck onto the Argo mission at 13

Idmon and Orpheus played pass the babysitter with Jason

He kicked Heracles in the shins once for "trying to steal my dad's stuff!!"

Atalanta and Asclepius were buddies

The Boreads played games with him to keep him occupied

went on the Calydonian Boar Hunt to make sure Atalanta didn't 1) hurt herself; or 2) kill someone

he grew up in the beginning stages of CHB

in 'camp' with him were: Jason (the oldest), Atalanta (raised by bears), and Hippolytus (it was his boarding school).

Theseus dropped by sometimes and Asclepius was able to smuggle his way into his belongs so he could visit Athens. just because :)

Jason and Atalanta freaked out and they and Hippolytus went on a 'quest' to find him

Phoebe the hunter is his favorite sister

he befriends snakes quickly

he died at 15

his death pushed Phoebe into distancing herself from her other siblings

when he was resurrected, he wasn't allowed to see Apollo

his only visitors in his prison medical school is his wife and children. he hasn't seen or heard from his father or any sibling in centuries.

has his mother's shiny black hair but his father's curls as well as his bright blue eyes

Aristaeus

the REAL baby

has anxiety

severe imposter syndrome

pov: all your siblings are great and wonderful and accomplished people. and you made cheese and honey :)

mom and dad were very proud of u ofc but you feel like you didn't even do much

especially when your cool older brother went on the Argo mission even though he knew he would die (RIP Idmon)

gets easily defensive over agriculture (specifically the innovations and how they have taken over the Good Ol' Days's way aka his way)

(he got that from his dad <3)

he also got his dad's blonde hair, but in a honey tone. his skin tone is also darker and closer in shade to Cyrene's

makes really good charcuterie boards

hangs out in the Midwest

visits his mom in Cyrene, Libya (he is a good son ty)

(ironically) mice are his favorite from his dad's sacred animals

he hates locusts though

don't u love it that apollo's number is 7 and he has 7 immortal kids...

greek mythology: mousai apollonides

mousai apollonides are three younger muses, daughters of the god apollo. they were honoured at the shrine of delphoi.  their names nete, mese, and hypate are synonymous with those of the lowest, middle, and highest chords of a lyre.

[mrsoftthoughts]

I have this little headcanon that some of the godly relatives (or really close people to their parent, but mostly close relatives) likes to check upon demigods or they do by the parent of the child request

So I'm sharing my thoughts about this!!

Leto LOVES to take care of her grandchilds, the Apollo kids are pretty used to the fact that every single one of them have at least one history were they meet this kind woman , she also checks up her niece childs (Hecate) sometimes, she knows that her sister asteria also would have loved to have the chance of meeting her grandkids, so she's there doing that for her

Artemis also has an eye upon her nieces, especially the ones that she seems potential for joining the hunt, but in general she's there at the distance taking care of them

Both Hecate and Hermes kids (who are more aligned to their father cthonic aspect) can get some help of the god or goddess if they are lost in some way and have a pretty good chance of maybe see them in person sometimes

Macaria and zagreus used to visit the di Angelo's house pretty often to see Nico and bianca during summer and spring when hades couldn't be there himself , they also try to look upon them at the lotus casino but it was to risky ( that doesn't stop them from shot Alecto with their questions about their little siblings everytime)

The nine muses kids always end up meeting at least one of their aunts when they are little

Same for the apollonides and the Apollo kids with musical/artistic alignment, 99% of them have seen some of their sisters around them (note* I couldn't really find what was their role as muses so that why I let it vague)

Melinoe used to see how hazel was doing it pretty often, it was for both pluto and Hecate/trivia request, she end up having a little of affection for her step-sister, just a little bit

I would love to see other people headcanons around this idea so feel more than welcome to share your thoughts.

The Muses

Lord Apollon is often referred to as the Leader of the Mused, and depicted with Them, and I’d like to honor Them as well as Him with introducing Them!

The Muses

There are 3 sets of Mousai (Muses)

- The Mousai Titanides, 3 or 4 elder Muses, children of Ouranos and Gaia

- The 9 Olympian Mousai, the ones I’m mostly talking about in this post

- The Mousai Apollonides, 3 daughters of Apollon

The 9 Muses are goddesses of music, song, dance, knowledge, and inspiration. They are children of Zeus and Mnemosyne.

The Muses are Kalliope (epic poetry), Kleio (history), Euterpe (lyric poetry), Melopmene (tragedy), Terpsichore (choral dance and song), Erato (Erotic poetry), Polymnia (sublime hymn), Ourania (astronomy), and Thalia (comedy).

[theoxenia]

A red mullet and a hake from the embers to thee,

Artemis of the Haven, I Menis the caster of nets offer,

and a brimming cup of wine mixed strong, and a broken crust of dry bread, a poor man's sacrifice;

in recompence whereof give thou nets ever filled with prey;

to thee, O blessed one, all meshes have been given.

“To Artemis of the Fishing-nets” (Apollonides) in Selected Epigrams from The Greek Anthology translated by J. W. Mackail

Top 5 Immortal Children of Apollo?

We don't have many options, the list of his immortal children is short, and most of them don't have myths about them. But here are my fav Apollo kids (immortal)

Asclepius - It's every parent's dream to have a child who becomes a doctor XD also non problematic in every way. No wonder he's daddy's favorite.

Hymenaeus - WINGS! Also, because he's the god of marriage hymns, I think he'd pester his dad to get married 😂 "Dad I want to sing at your wedding! Why don't you understand? Get married already!"

Aristaeus - who doesn't love a bee keeping, cheese making god? He's that dude who'd sip ambrosia amidst godly drama but lose his mind over the queen bee's death.

Ialemenus - the personification of lamentation. He's seems like the black sheep of the family 😂 making sad poem over small things like his lost handkerchief.

Musa Apollonides - literally "Muses of Apollo". They're 3 daughters named Apollonis, Borysthenis and Cephissso. They have no myths but. like.,,,, Apollo with his lil girls,,,niiiice (bc most of his kids are sons) They're said to be the personification of his lyre strings, which is why they're nicknamed Nete, Mese and Hypate (lowest, middle and highest string) (I know this makes the list 8 and not 5, but oh well)

[solar--serenity]

I have a question since you know a lot about Apollo; do you know the names of the Korybantes (the sons of Apollo and the muse Thalia), or any myths involving the Apollonic Muses (not the nine muses, I’m pretty sure they’re his daughters with one of them tho) 💕💕

Uh- okay, first, I’m not quite an expert on Apollo- though I do worship him, I haven’t been worshipping him long. Second, thank you for sending me an ask! I’m glad I seem intelligent enough for someone to ask this.

1. The Korybantes- from what I’ve read, are “tribes” of dancers who worship Cybele/Rhea, and are descended from Apollo and the Muse Thalia. There were several “tribes”, and the names I’ve found so far are the Korybantes Cabeiri, the Korybantes Euboioi, the Korybantes Samothrakioi. Is this what you were looking for?

2. I haven’t found any myths of the Apollonic muses, or the Mousai Apollonides, but I do know they symbolize the three notes on the lyre- Nete with the lowest note, Mese with the middle note, and Hypate with the highest note. Strangly enough there seems to be three other daughters of Apollo considered to be muses but I can’t find what they stand for (their names are Kephiso, Apollonis, and Borysthenis if anyone wants to try to attempt to figure them out). I do remember seeing something that listed an “Apollonis” as a source for something somewhere though.

🤷😔 sorry I can’t be much help, anon

2000-Year-Old Ancient Greek ‘Graduate School Yearbook’ Carved in Stone Found

Historians have discovered that an ancient Greek inscription on a marble slab in the collection of the National Museums of Scotland is a rare, previously unknown “graduate school yearbook” type list of names.

The carved letters on this marble are a list of ephebic friends, and close friends, who passed through the ephebate in Athens, a year of rigorous military and civil training during the reign of Emperor Claudius (AD 41-54).

An ephebus was a youth in ancient Greece who had reached the age of puberty. Ephebi (the plural of “ephebus”) aged 18 or 19 were at one time required to undergo two years of stringent military training, but the requirement became less compulsory and the training less rigorous and militaristic over time. The youthfulness of the ephebi inspired the adjective “ephebic”.

Ephebic training became a requirement for all young males eligible for admission as Attic citizens in the 4th century B.C. If they were 18 years old of Attic parentage on both sides, the youths would be de jure citizens, but to actually exercise those rights (vote, be a party to a lawsuit, attend the assembly), first, they had to sign up for two years of military studies. The requirement was ultimately dropped, and by the 2nd century B.C., ephebic training was open to foreigners and the study of literature and philosophy was added to the curriculum. From roughly 39 A.D., everyone who had completed an ephebic training was considered an Attic citizen.

It lists a group of 31 friends who went through the Athenian ephebate together during the reign of the Roman Emperor Claudius (AD 41-54) and was intended to commemorate the close relationships they had formed.

When they read heard about it, experts assumed it was a replica of a similar list in the collection of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, but when they examined it, they realized that was not the case.

Because inscriptions from this time period are uncommon, scholars say it’s even more remarkable that the newly discovered ephebic list dates from the same year and cohort as the Ashmolean’s inscription.

Dr. Peter Liddel, professor of Greek history and epigraphy at the University of Manchester, who led the discovery, said: “Because of lockdown we were not able to travel to the museum until July 2021, and on seeing it we realized that this was not a copy of an already known inscription but it was a completely unique new discovery which had been in the storerooms of the NMS for a very long time, since the 1880s, and it listed a group of young men who called themselves co-ephebes or co-cadets and friends.

“It turned out to be a list of the cadets for one particular year during the period 41-54 AD, the reign of Claudius, and it gives us new names, names we’d never come across before in ancient Greek, and it also gives us among the earliest evidence for non-citizens taking part in the ephebate in this period.

The top of the plaque is peaked and a worn relief believed to depict a small oil amphora of the type ephebes would have used in the school gymnasium. It is not known where the list was displayed but it is thought it could have been put up somewhere such as the gymnasium where the young men trained.

In the archonship of Metrodoros, when the superintendent was Dionysodoros (son of Dionysodoros) of Phlya, Attikos son of Philippos, having inscribed his own fellow ephebes (and) friends, dedicated (this).

The 31 names are inscribed in two columns under the dedication. Attikos’ select bros in the ephebate were Aiolion, Dionysas, Anthos, Herakon, Theogas, Charopeinos, Tryphon, Dorion, Phidias, Symmachos, Athenion, Antipas, Euodos, Metrobios, Hypsigonos, Apollonides, Hermas, Theophas, (H?)elis, Atlas, Zopyros, Euthiktos, Mousais, Aneiketos, Sekoundos, Zosimos,  Primos, Dionys, Eisigenes, Sotas and Androneikos.

Normalise being claimed by deities not just as their worshipers or devotees, but also as their children. They protect and give us council if we are willing to listen. We talk to them. Confide in them. We cry in front of them and feel loved.

Headcanon that when a Demigod child of a minor deity without a cabin make it to camp, depending of their godly parent ,some cabins are allowed to have them as a temporary guests instead of the hermes cabin ultil the cabin is designed and build up, or straight up as residents if both the child parent and the god of the cabin are ok with that ( prob because the minor god has a kid every milenia and when this one left, the new cabin would be more useless than the hera one)

And yeah, this is just an excuse for me to make Nico having as roommates the childs of his godly siblings and his brother in law ( the hypnos cabin fight for be the ones that should have the child of Thanatos btw)

And the Apollo cabin just messing around with the kids of Asclepius Aristaios and the apollonides (and maybe the nine muses ones too I'm not sure)

[crazycatsiren]

Hi! I did have a few questions if you don't mind. I was thinking of also working with the main deities of the Greek pantheon (Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter,Hades, Artemis, etc.) mostly bc I've been feeling a pull to do so. I'm still working on my skills and intuition. Also, opinions on worshipping Mousai Apollonides? Any help would be welcome and greatly appreciated. I already went through the 'Deities Grimoire' page and it was very helpful. Thank you for making and compiling it.

I'm an Artemis devotee. On this page you can find a bunch of information regarding Artemis devotion. I personally have not done a whole lot with Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, and Hades, even though I do love them all. I also have not worked with the Mousai Apollonides. I know that they are the 3 youngest muses and daughters of Apollo, and that they are associated with music.

Is there a movie that Adèle Haenel doesn’t gorgeously cry in it?? I hope she’s not crying that much in her own life haha

haha it’s true that she does cry in a lot of her films! But i think there’s still a couple of films where she doesn’t. 

I believe she doesn’t cry in Les Combattants ? I’m not sure though. She doesn’t cry in Alyah (even though she doesn’t have a lot of scenes in it haha) and in Le Daim either if i remember well !

Also des she cry in l’Apollonide ? I can’t even remember it’s been a while and i have a bad memory haha.

But yeah she still cries in the majority of her films haha
