Some incorrect fianna quotes made with the Perchance Incorrect Quotes Generator:

Caoilte: Oisín learned how to fold origami penguins from Diarmuid the other day. I told him, “I feel a little bad for the penguins, it’s hot here”, and the next day he put them in the fridge.

Fionn: Goll is not allowed to decide which one of us is the chosen one.

Fionn: I told Conán that his ears turn red when he lie.

Diarmuid: Does he though?

Fionn: No.

Diarmuid: Then why did you tell him that?

Fionn: Because I can do this.

Fionn: Hey Conán! Do you love us?

Conán, with his hands over his ears: No.

Caoilte: I won a new phone in a race.

Oisín: Huh? What kind of race lets you win a phone, Caoilte?

Caoilte: A race between the store owner, the cop, and me.

Fionn: You saved me! Why?

Goll: People would think I murdered you if I didn't.

Caoilte: I love you.

Fionn: How many people have you said that to?

Caoilte: Everyone.

Fionn: What?

Alrightie! So, I googled a bit, and I couldn't find a lot of details on Mannanan mac lir, could you tell me some more about them?

((Mannannan mac lir, meaning “son of the sea”, is a warrior, ruler, and guardian of the Otherworld in Irish mythology, making him a bit of a psychopomp. He is the sea god, and while he’s affiliated with Tuatha te Danann, he’s also occasionally described as one of their enemies, a Fomorian.

He has a special chariot drawn by the white mare Enbarr, which means “sea foam.” He’s only one of the owners of Enbarr. She had a flowing mane, made of water or sea foam, and helps in his duties. She transports his daughter Niamh to and from Tir na Nóg, the Land of Youth.

He also owns a powerful sword named Fragarach and a cloak of invisibility.

Some say the Isle of Mann is named after him, while others say he’s named after the Isle. He appears in all four of the mythological cycles of Irish mythology, though he doesn’t play much of a prominent role.

He’s considered a lawgiver among the Tuatha te Danann. He possesses the power of necromancy and the ability to envelop himself and others in a mist so they’re not seen by their enemies. Thus on Camp Tara, he’s our equivalent of the goddess Hecate as the god of the mist!))

((hope this helps! and please forgive any incorrect information, as this was transcribed by arcana from word of a sleep deprived oleander’s mouth ;;; - arc))

Danae

(Gustav Klimt 1907)

According to the myth, Danae was the daughter of King Acrisius of Argos. The King receives a prophecy from the Oracle, which foretells that he will be killed by Danae’s child. In an attempt to defy fate, he locks up his daughter in a cellar. However, the ever crafty Jupiter turns himself into golden rain and enters her room. The fruit of their union is Perseus, who years later, fulfills the prophecy and kills his grandfather.

In his painting, Gustav Klimt blends Symbolism with Art Nouveau aesthetics. In Danae, the figure of the young woman and the golden rain dominate the canvas. The purple cloth represents her royal origins and the Art Nouveau circular designs represent her female nature. The artist candidly explores female sexuality. However, the heavy ornamental style decreases the sexual tension of the piece.
