hello all, I've been noticing my art being reposted on pinterest and while I don't particularly mind, I notice that they fail to credit me as the original artist. I beg of you, to NOT repost my art or any art if you don't know the original source or if you don't credit work. I forget to sign my work sometimes but don't take it as an invitation to repost with no credits or claim it as yours.

I'm not calling out any particular names here, I just want to point this out. thank you.

“Apollo is Zeus’s least favorite son-“

Me: *grasps you by the shoulders* NO. HE IS THE FAVORITE SON. LITERALLY WHO ELSE WOULD BE THE FAVORITE? ARES? THE GUY ZEUS LEFT IN A JAR AND SAID TO HIS FACE HE DESPISED HIM? HERMES? THE GUY WHO IS JUST THERE? HEPHAESTUS? THE GUY WHO AVOIDS OLYMPUS LIKE THE PLAGUE? DIONYSUS? THE GUY WHO IS CHAOTIC?

listen to me. LISTEN TO ME. *frantically shakes shoulders* THIS WILL SOUND BACKWARDS BUT IT MAKES SENSE.

ZEUS. PUNISHES. HIS FAVORITES. WITH. THE WORST. PUNISHMENTS.

therefore, we can conclude Apollo is the favorite and Dionysus as second favorite son.

also Apollo is mythologically the favorite son. so.

BIG OL’ PILE OF ANGST POTENTIAL!

i think the fastest and most effective prayer to any God in an emergency is just "[insert name], please help me". specifics are good in like, formal situations, but let me tell you: i parked my car in mud which froze overnight (temps in my area dropped from 50 degrees fahrenheit down to about 10 degrees with windchill), and after trying for almost a full hour to get my car unstuck from the mud, i just stared vacantly to the sky and said "Hermes, please help." and wouldn't you know it, about three minutes later my car's wheels somehow managed to gain traction and the frozen mud around them loosened enough to actually allow me to back out.

i have more thoughts on this whole (very good) incident namely involving a tiktok by olympianbutch on invocations (not tagging him because i'm not writing that essay yet), the power of the names of the Gods, and how the Gods are very, very, very good. but it's almost 3am and my brain is potatoes, so we'll post that all some other time :)

for now, i'll give a simple thank You Hermes for getting me unstuck from the mud <3

i’m gonna have to be selfish and ask my deities to please help me keep a steady mind while i work through this research project i have. i had an absolute meltdown and sobbed my heart out for the first time in so many weeks because i got overwhelmed and felt like i’ve no clue what’s going on. please guide me through this assignment successfully so i can have some peace of mind

Hermes: Yeah that's the thing about being a god, we can't just have good relationships with our kids or any of the mortals we have relationships with 😔

Poseidon, tripping over himself to get to Sally the second she prayed for him: You rang? 😍

I'm a Hermes devotee, of course I stutter and struggle to communicate my thoughts and feelings from time to time.

[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.

hey guys this shit keeps appearing everywhere so I'll say it once:

I WILL ALWAYS DRAW HELIOS AS THE ONE WHOSE COWS GOT SLAUGHTERED !!!!!!!! I CONSIDER BOTH APOLLO AND HELIOS SUN GODS, BUT HELIOS' COWS WERE THE ONES KILLED !!!!

[pain-is-too-tired]

Thinking about gods shifting size again.

Poseidon 100% just pops up in a fish tank or glass of water or something in his small size to Percy sometimes. Nearly scaring the daylights out of him. Though typically Poseidon prefers to be bigger... especially cause he can hold Percy and Tyson easier like that jdgdg

"Dad-im almost grown, you seriously don't have to hold me like this-"

Triton just over to the side like "Trust me dude, I'm centuries old and he still does it. Don't waste your breath."

Tyson's having a great time!

Hermes actually trying to father and popping up out of nowhere and nearly scaring Chris half to death. Pouting when Chris really wants nothing to do with him, but ends up going along with it anyways when Hermes keeps pouting.

The Stolls are too likely to tease their dad if he's small. But Hermes will pick them and Chris up and try to put them in some nest/bed or something like a broody hawk.

George and Martha grow with him too btw. Your godly dad being much bigger than you is one thing. His snakes? Whole other ball game.

Also, imagine just the image of giant size Hephaestus awkwardly holding one of his kids. Just trying so hard to be careful cause they're fragile.

Meanwhile Zeus over there hitting his across a whole ocean ffsfd

Apollo kids find their dad snuggled up next to them in small form like a Lil mouse.

Apollo definitely goes into broody mode more than anyone. You even glance his kids way he will give you the black plague. One of his sacred animals is a swan. Good luck if you cross him why broody. His poor kids are so confused. It took everything to convince him to let them back to camp to work after the titan war gdgdf

-sips hot cocoa-

So how many times do you think a drunken Athena has gone to visit the family, only to realize they're all dead?

Do you think she sits in the ruins of the Ithacan palace while drunkenly crying for her friends?

I wonder who has to bring her back to Olympus when this happens. Maybe Hermes, considering Odysseus was his family. They both just sit in the ruins while Athena tells him stories in her intoxicated state.

And Hermes listens to them all, trying to coax his sister to start going home to get some proper sleep, because he knows she hasn't had that in so long.

Just a thought.

[restlesskeychains]

Hermes and Aeolus being friends are so great. Like you’re telling me they’re these two silly goofy goobers gossiping in the clouds?

Silly Ctimene Headcanon :3

As some of y'all know, my Odysseus has long, curly af auburn hair. It's something he gets from Anticlea (who got it from her dad who got it from Hermes). It's a cute lil thing with Laertes having his beloved 3 tall, red-brown puff balls lol.

But unlike Odysseus and Anticlea who love their luscious locks, Ctimeine HATES it.

It's too hot. It's thick and heavy. It gets messy and frizzy with humidity. It hurts to get combed. Who on earth would purposely keep what feels like a woolen blanket on their head during the warm season?!

Odysseus hears her rants about how much she hates it. Both are tenderheaded but she is more upset about getting it styled than he is. When Odysseus is around 12-14 and she was around 10-12, hearing some more of her rants, he was basically like "…Well…what if your hair got cut by 'accident'? 👀 "

And then he basically has it set up where "oh no, My sister is stuck and all snarled with her hair in this bush! How will I get her out????"

And it's just basically him pulling a "chop chop" for her. Very uneven and in one swoop. like from "Tangled" >:3

And ofc, Anticlea and Euryclea are sad. Probably even crying a lil.

"This was on purpose, I KNOW it was, Odysseus. How could you do this to your poor lil sister?! 😭" "Because I'm a horrible and mean older brother >:3" winks at the camera while Ctimene is bobbing her head side to side and kicking her feet, giggling about her shorter, much lighter hair "You will be punished severely." "…yeh 🥲 "

I know haircutting wasn't really a thing unless grieving BUT they were kiddos and stupid 👀 This may just be a one time thing but I also really love short hair Ctimene. :)
