[just-helpol-things]

I’ve been celebrating Hyakintha the last few days and have felt so much closer to Lord Apollo and it has been motivating me to offer more to him and build our relationship!!

thanks @hyakinthou-naos for the Temple’s celebration of Hyakintha, it actually feels like I’m in a temple doing this

VOTE HYACITHUS RIGHT NOW HE DESERVES EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD SPREAD THE WORD OF HYACINTHUS VOTE HIM

Icarus is in mourning, as one might expect. His father is dead, and he is alive. They've escaped from the Labyrinth, but at what cost to them? He plucks his wings off, unsure of what to do with them, and stares up at the sun reproachfully.

The sun sends back a pretty young man, unaware of his place and Icarus's rage. He asks Icarus if he's seen Apollo anywhere, or perhaps Poseidon -- he's very lost, you see. And he's never been a fan of being alone for too long, lest the wind start chasing after him.

m/m 8 for Hyacinthus

SWF affection meme || Accepting@lokakin

Hyacinthus grinned, seeing Vali sitting to remove his armor. Happy that his love had finally returned home, he practically jumped into Vali’s lap. Hands reaching out to used Vali’s shoulders to catch himself, Hyacinthus found them both falling backwards from the momentum. Even before they had stopped, Hyacinthus leaned in for a kiss, cupping the other’s jaw in hand as he settled himself in Vali’s lap. 

“I have missed you today.”

Curse the ancient poets for making my hearth crack every time I see a hyacithus flower.

Apollo *seeing someone do something stupid*: what an idiot

Apollo *realising it is Hyacithus*: ohhh no, that's my idiot

Apollo’s got his hand on Hyacithus’ knee as he’s driving the Sun Chariot (currently in the form of a sports car), and a fond smile on his face. Of course he’s taking the opportunity to sing sappy loves songs to his boyfriend. He’d be a fool if he didnt take that opportunity every chance that he got.

Imagine: apollo with long, slightly curly hair with lots of flowers woven into it and smiling softly at a bird

And hyacithus literally losing his mind over his husband.

(Take a look at that link tho bc @my-name-is-apollo made a lovely post that means that my OTP OF ALL OTPS IS ALIVE AND HAPPY AND IM LIVINGGGG)

1) dont hide your comments in tags because it makes them hard to keep track of

2) I'm not saying all his relationships ended poorly. Actually the ones that actually went out with him had a wonderful time. But given you failed to even mention that Cassandra, ya know....the person the comic was about....was one of the people Apollo was pursuing who turned him down and then he cursed her I'm almost certain you're the one missing myths.

3) Because it's late and I'm petty let's go down the vastly-oversymplified-but-makes-my-point list.

Cassandra: Rejected Apollo's advances, was cursed to never be believed ever. Got future vision out of the deal so.....not all bad?

Coronis: Liked another dude while carrying Apollo's kid, Apollo found out, had his sister murder her to death.

Cyparissus: Surprisingly functional until the dude killed his favorite deer and asked Apollo to let him cry forever, and so the god made him a cyprus.

Hyacithus: We all know him, functional relationship until Zephyr took a page outta Yuno's book of romance and murdered him, where he was turned into a flower. No he was not ressurected. That was added later to give Apollo's love life a happy ending.

Daphne: Rejected his advances, got turned into laurel tree for the trouble.

Ocyrrhoe: Rejected his advances, hid out on the ocean. Apollo cursed the boat to turn into a stone and the skipper into a pilot-fish. She....probably drowned. He didnt care.

Bolina: Rejected his advances, jumped off a cliff to get away from him, got turned into a nymph.

Khione: Functional. Only thing of note is she got to do both him and Hermes and bore them twins. Because that's how that works....

Marpessa: Sorta functional? I mean she liked him, but the fear that he would abandon her in her old age drove her to the arms of another.

Sibylla: Got immortality out of the deal, but ended up spurning his advances, and so was cursed.

Adonis: just.....Adonis. that's a different bag of worms and involves nonbinary and Aphrodite and he wasnt really a dude when he was with Apollo it's very strange. Functional, but strange.

So that's.... 7 rejections, 4 functional and 1 eh. And only one of those actually ends well mostly because he survived being fought over by Persephone and Aphrodite and at that point ya just throw up your hands and say "gods cant kill him". Now granted I left out several stories that boil down to 'and the woman bore him a child' because it's up in the air if he actually pursued them or took a page out of his old man's book.....and I skipped the ones where he took a page from his uncle's book and just kidnapped a lady......but still. Point stands, I've read more than enough to come to the conclusion that sexually Apollo was as successful as Zeus....and equally so romantically.

The closest he ever got were the muses but they wouldnt marry him....they loved him and he loved them, but there were nine of them and only one of him.

Hit him where it hurts, Cassandra! (Apollo is the WORST.)

My version of Lucifer you'll forward see in the comic. Pretty proud of this king-of-hell guy, so I'll just drop it there with the link of the comic. I have big plans for him and Nemo. https://tapas.io/series/Hyacinthus

I just found out the spartans celebrated Hyacinthia each year to honor the death of Hyacithus and it was a very important festival and all.

And I get it, I stan this guy too, but why Hyacinthus of all people? He didnt do anything exept screw a god. Considering Apollo had something going on with roughly half the population of greece I wouldnt even consider that an accomplishment....

Welp. I guess I found a new holiday to eat cake at \(°-°)/
