If you are an "Odysseus deserves to be crying every day in Calypsos island for seven years." fuck you. No he didn't. Yes, Odysseus is a fucked up guy. No he didn't deserve that. Even if he wasn't my babygirl, pet liar, he would not have deserved that. I wouldn't have said that even to Theseus and I hate that bitch so fucking much. No one, no one, deserves to be a victim!

Imagine being loved by me 💌

“Imagine being loved by me” — I would be your Pygmalion, shaping love from air, each touch sculpting you like Galatea, until my hands coax your heart to beat, and my breath awakens you from stone. — Patient, I would wait, as Pygmalion once did, for the marble to soften in my grasp, until, like Galatea, you step down from your pedestal, alive in the warmth of love only I could give.

“Imagine being loved by me” — written by n.i {moonysprettypoison}

So yall in greek mythology Pygmalion is a sculptor who falls in love with Galatea, a statue he created. Moved by his devotion, Aphrodite brings Galatea to life n they live happily together, symbolizing the transformative power of love.

sea song

when the sea sings, everybody listens

it’s so easy to hear the music the gentle rhythm, swishing sway the thunderous beat of sand beneath surf

it is easy, too, to hear her voice she croons in whispers, listen, listen, she roars, demanding, when ignored

standing before the horizon, aglow she is vast, all mighty, infinite even a non believer knows to kneel before a god

the sea is vengeful like Poseidon, swallowing sand, sky, beings taking and taking with a hungry and immortal greed

yet the sea is a mother, a sister, a friend and the ravaging tropical rains beat harmless within her gentle arms

listen, child, to her symphony heed the warnings of her roar, do not be entranced by her enticing pull beneath-

from safety, you may cherish sweet music you may worship at her feet whisper praises like prayers, and hope you are understood

i swim within her cradle, breathless, reckless, i feel her chastise me on the edge of ruin a temptress, i must not watch the horizon too long

yet as i leave, i almost think her sheepish she lifts me up, sets me gently on my feet when i go, the surf whispers a farewell

when the sea sings, i always listen i cannot help myself - i love her too well for the sea is my marvellous deity in a godless world

when a deity speaks, even an atheist listens

you don't have to confine yourself to one label or one state of being. remember that persephone was both floral maiden & bringer of death- you too can be both, whatever that may be

luving it so making a different post out of this snippet

[sparrow-the-tired-lesbian]

Percy: so you’re not a monster. What are you? Medusa: A survivor. Me: Me: oh.

[godsofhumanity]

Hera: I want to be like a caterpillar.

Amphitrite: Explain.

Hera: Eat a lot, sleep for a while, wake up beautiful.

Amphitrite: You know they only have a life span of like a week, right?

Hera: That’s just another bonus!

I think G.O.W! Athena should get to dissect someone’s body. As a treat :3

[blueflipflops]

A lot of people keep reimagining evil women from greek myths into girl bosses and it's like… good for them, i guess. But haven't you thought that maybe the queen you've been defending and remaking wholeass myths for is just really really compelling and sexy when they're evil? Just a thought.

i could write essays about how i, carrion (icarian) is one of the best songs ever written. these lyrics, just fucking HIT:

all our weight is just a burden offered to us by the world.

and though I burn how could I fall? when I am lifted by every word you say to me.

once I had wondered what was holdin' up the ground but I can see that all along, love, it was you all the way down.

if the wind turns, if I hit a squall allow the ground to find its brutal way to me.

and, of course,

If I should fall, on that day Ionly pray, don't fall away from me.
