#like persephone and the pomegranate

[beezonia]

I decided to try test out some persona designs for something I might be writing!

Left - Terpsichore (two version for a more modern/greek toga ish look)

Right - Persephone

(read the tags for more info!)

[ day 7 : familiar ]

Upon her arrival in the future, Persephone created a new familiar which she christened Pomegranate, or Pommy for short. When the arcanists asked why she gave it a sword, she told them if he was meant to fight at her side, he would need a weapon. Fiercely loyal to his mistress, he does not suffer fools and has a taste for the most Eminent Emet-Selch's ankles.

how do you think aromanticism can be expressed visually? im not talking flags or anything else as an ID, i mean the experience through art // an aro asking an aro

like.. can you think of the symbol or trope or metaphor of how aromanticism can be expressed? im an artist who has the opposite of artblock rn so i think of such questions a lot sometimes :D i can think of anatomically gorey correct heart or the lack of attraction/"pull" like an anchor

its interesting to hear a writer's pov of the same question :]

before i say anything else i would like to say the idea of aromanticism as an anatomically correct heart is so fucking sick and i love this.

to me the first thing i thought of was... aromanticism as seeing the world through a slightly different color palette? almost like looking at things from behind a pane of vaguely tinted glass. you can see things happening, but they don't appeal to you the same way they do to everyone else. you can imitate it but it sort of feels like you're miming.

other images that came to mind (depressing)...

the center of mass in a binary system. the two stars are doomed to orbit closer and closer until they collide and go supernova, and despite being in the middle you are sort of just there, invisibly.

a black hole.

a knife.

a train where each passenger keeps getting off until you are the only one left sitting.

snow. a wintry landscape.

a dream.

other images that came to mind (less depressing)...

a plant!! maybe a tree. maybe a full canopy.

a notebook.

a rope used for rappelling.

pandas. i don't know why but they seem so aromantic to me.

a long drive at night on the way to pick up a friend.

the beach in the evening. if you listen to a seashell you can hear the ocean of your identity inside, just as sure as the waves that wash over your feet.

welcome back to another episode of “tiny little details that could either possibly allude to 0507 or are just delusion”

today we have the forbidden fruit as a symbol of indulgence (which is commonly interpreted to be an apple), from the biblical myth, which is given to eve by a serpent

man! i wonder who has an apple motif… and who has a snake motif… hmmmmm dot dot dot hmmmmmm *gunshots*

ok goodnight

Every time I see a story about Hades and Persephone now, my mind starts clawing at the walls and screaming this is not what the story is supposed to be. This is not The Brand. The themeing is not there.

Demeter is not the bad guy, Hades is not the bad guy. If anything, Persephone is the bad guy. But she's not guilty, she's fated. It's a dance of themeing.

If Demeter is the bad guy, you take away the joy of summer and gratitude of spring. If Hades is the bad guy, you destroy the inevitability and softness of death. But Persephone.

The earth does not care if you die. The winter does not care if you slip on ice. The stone does not care if your ankle cracks. The world of circumstance is unkind and unapologetic. It's neither worse than Hades' death nor different; but it's to be feared. It's sudden and violent. It's a terror. The Dread Persephone.

The story of Persephone should be about self-discovery, not victimhood or tragic accidents.

When to a Halloween party as Persephone.

It was a very last minute costume... but I think it works

Persephone's not sure what's going on but she and Pommy are going to figure it out.

Pomegranates being compared to cannibalism nowadays is kind of interesting because I will always see them as in reference to the Hades and Persephone story so to me a pomegranate symbolizes a last stitch effort to make someone stay with you out of loneliness for no reason. Forcing someone who was already gonna stay to stay out of fear they wouldn’t

So I’ve been a tad confused by the pomegranate TikTok’s lol
