7 Anti LO Asks

1. I generally like LO, since it's one of the rare medias that don't turn Hades(canonically one of the very few gods who actually does his job and isn't shitting on humans for petty reasons) into an evil overlord like Hollywood keeps portraying him but something I didn't get was why they had to choose a r@pe route for Perse. If people actually did research, the definition of rape during the early Greek was synonymous with kidnap. And in other versions, she literally just walked in accidentally in the underworld, liked it, and said "this place is mine now too". Honestly second sounded more badass. I didn't get why there had to be r@pe involved.

2. I know it's a very different thing but... even characters from a children's TV show are better written than the ones in LO. I really feel like even Fluttercord (Fluttershy X Discord) or AppleDash (Applejack x Rainbow Dash) are better written than LO Persades. At least, they had a much more believable build up.

Discord (who is a literal God of Chaos) got called out for actions and actually became a better person while Hades didn't even try.

I'm just saying Fluttercord had a much believable slow burn romance than LO Persades. They were even enemies the first time they met. Discord got called out and defeated (because of the ✨Power of Friendship✨) but Fluttershy was the first person to genuinely give him a chance when they figured out that there is a chance he might become a better person.

Fluttershy and Discord are two very different people but it even became one of the many reasons they're such good friends while Persephone and Hades don't even have that much good reasons for liking each other, other than “hurr durr sexyyyyy” or “mommy issues” or “her butt looks like an upside down heart”. Persephone at least had the therapy but Hades just stopped going to therapy because... reasons...

3. Adding my two cents as someone with clinically diagnosed and treated BPD. If all the gods are flexing getting their therapy on, why would Minthe not be entitled to the same healing? Underworld DBT, people. But Rachel had an agenda for her from day one, Animal Farm style... underprivileged nymph bad, hyperprivileged civil war criminal goddess GOOD. You can’t just scapegoat a mentally ill woman and the personality disorder that likely numerous of your readers share especially1/2

2/2 when the fuckboy in blue has already proven himself capable of carting his partner of the week to and from their chosen route of therapy. Minthe deserved better and certainly wanted to get there.

4. "the designs and stories of marvel have become ubiquitous" they really havent? god of war is a massive video game series and covered norse myth just fine w/o marvel fans saying it ripped it off. percy jackson also covered norse myth in the magnus series and no one said it was "stealing" from marvel. i think smythe is just lowkey (hehe) admitting shes not creative enough to not just leech off marvel for stories/designs like she already did to disney for greek myth, which egyptian myth doesnt have

5. love how rachel told us gaia was used and overpowered by ouranos. you know, gaia, who made a sickle out of nothing and told her sons to kill him and who later birthed some of the scariest monsters in mythology and who even zeus was scared to mess with. that gaia, who very much did not have her powers ripped away from her, who defeated ouranos by her will, and who was feared and respected. jfc rachel, you even depowered the mother to creation and the earth itself? but persephone is the OP one? 😑

6. i recently looked over a bunch of panels from lo (i havent in a while- i mainly see the ones that get passed around) and oh god the women in this comic... their poor spines.... the back pain half the female characters should be in all the goddamn time...

7. am i the only one who read the variants of the minthe myth and saw her as the victim instead? hubris was obvs seen as bad in myth, but the gods' wrath punishing them also wasnt seen as good either. case in point, hades felt so bad about minthe's death (?) in myth that he made mint his sacred plant. he clearly regretted his actions leading to her demise. how does rachael view a nymph being harmed by a powerful godess queen and see the weaker party as the real villain? thats just insane to me.
