Little girl who loves her Mama too much. Constantly trying to give her a clumsy massage, asking her if there's anything she can get her, lovingly kneeling under Mamas desk in case there's any way her kouth could be useful. Puppy dog eyes from crotch level as she basks in Mamas prescence.

Aphrodite Antheia

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

Aphrodite of the Gardens

[beautyofaphrodite]

I’d like to talk a bit about one of my favorite epithets of Aphrodite and why it’s so special to me.

Her epithet I’d like to talk about is Erototrophos. That means “mother of love”. It likely refers to the fact that She’s most of the time thought of as the mother of Eros, or Love.

Aphrodite Erototrophos is very special to me for many reasons. First, She mostly appears to me in this epithet. Occasionally, She’ll appear in different epithets and I can usually tell from her appearance or how she feels but most of the time it’s Erototrophos.

She also is like a mother to me. She’s very protective, loving, occasionally strict, and is always there for me. Even before I knew this epithet existed and that it was how She appeared to me a lot, I always felt She was very motherly.

Another reason why I love this epithet is because of my relationship with my mom. My mom is one of my favorite people in the world. She’s not perfect, nobody is, but she’s the best mom I could ever ask for. I love her so much. Familial love is so important to me as I’m lucky enough to have an amazing family, and Aphrodite Erototrophos reminds me of motherly and familial love.

I love this aspect of Lady Aphrodite so, so much. What’s your favorite epithet of Hers and why?

Just saw someone on TikTok say that when it comes to the elections CHB and CJ would all hate The Guy, but the ares cabin would be divided 50/50 on love and hate, and I was like-

Ares was the only god who was respectful when it came to women, he was the one in a consentual relationship, he has no record of rape unlike all other Olympian gods and he KILLED a rapist. He killed a rapist who attacked his daughter and was on trial for that and was found NOT GUILTY.

The ares campers were raised by their SISTER. And the reason why they only have one sister is because all the others died as children before they got to camp because of abusers, trafficking and rapists.

If an ares camper would even think about supporting that they would be disowned by Ares himself.

now that i think of it it’d be so funny for mama fenge to be connected to ena because ena made a deal with qliploth before THEY were assimilated into xipe about stopping tayzzyronth & oroboros, and aventurine misled the ig into thinking that tayzzyronth’s remains were in egyhazo & made them lose tons of resources. and also that qliploth upheld THEIR end of the deal about the propogation but it’s unknown what ena did, if anything, about the voracity. and now aventurine is a part of the preservation ipc.

I am overjoyed at being accepted as a fellow daughter of @mama-scarebear's cult of daughters💖

I am so so excited to continue to train myself and help my fellow sisters train to be the bestest, dumbiest, most obedient playthings for Mama!

Humiliating myself for Mama, hypnotising myself for Mama, losing control and wetting and messing my panties and padding for Mama...

My purpose is as clear as my brain is empty = very 🥰

why does everything have to be a hecking issue with my sister

[morgana-ren]

With all this talk about the gods, what other DnD deities do you like besides Bane? There's a lot of interesting ones

Well, like would be an interesting word for what I feel for the Gods.

I used to think Shar was interesting, but much like serial killers, her whole shtick breaks down rather simply: "I hate life! Fuck you, you wretched beings! You don't have a right to exist, and my bitch sister is to blame for your existence, so I am going to create so much chaos and so much misery that the world will fold in on itself!"

It's pathetic once you break it down. She's a jealous, angry, violent, and self-absorbed harlot, and she's dead-set on taking it out on everyone that lives. She uses people foolish enough to turn to her to realize that vision. They all have their own justifications, but it's serving a master that actively thinks you are filthy and wants you dead. It's pointless and an exercise in futility, because she will never 'Embrace you in darkness' or whatever lie she has promised. She is open about her hatred if you are not so enveloped in her lies that you fall for them.

Literally, this woman has a plaque in her temple that reads "Equality in darkness. No beauty and no wealth. Only equality" and then, in the next fucking room, has a 500 foot statue of herself with gold filigree standing on innumerable humans skulls.

She is the edgy goddess with no real point. Undirected and unwarranted anger. Great purple aesthetic, but ultimately embarrassingly pointless. She targets the weak and the angry and sharpens them into instruments for her will, and then discards them when she no longer needs them. For some reason, none of her followers see this pattern and keep justifying. Not exactly bright, this lot.

I can appreciate what Ilmater stands for.

But their beliefs are flawed. It's an ouroboros of suffering.

His entire domain is ultimate selflessness: I will do whatever I can to ease your suffering, even taking that suffering upon myself and even dying if need be. The God on the Rack. The Martyr. The Crying God.

You can see why that might have some flaws.

More than that, as you can see in the temple, most of the people that serve Ilmater do not even understand his teachings. People are suffering because Ilmater does not correct these people. Refugees are dying because his own acolytes find them filthy and disgusting and find them unworthy. This goes against all of His teachings. What the fuck are you even doing here?

If this is so important to you, why do you not correct this behavior? You are breaking your own beliefs with your inability to act because these people-- these children-- are suffering and dying because those operating under your holy name are harboring delusions that are actively harmful-- and even malevolent.

Caring, compassion, love for the aching and the dying? These are good tenants, but like most Gods, he takes it too fucking far. You encourage selflessness and martyrdom, but to be there for another is to have a steady foundation. You cannot ease suffering if your own suffering is so great that you cannot see through it. You are offering the chance to romanticize it and 'self-flagellate'-- sometimes literally.

If you are not healthy, you cannot ease suffering. You will not know what to say. What to do. You will follow scripts and rules, but suffering does not follow these things. When someone is truly in pain, how do you ease them if your own pain is too great? How do you comfort them? How can you show love when all you know is pain? People who cry and weep and moan but cannot truly help anyone because they themselves are bleeding.

He is creating a cycle of suffering. People who mean well, but are such push-overs that they cannot help themselves either. To take suffering is not to ease it. It is not to cure it. It is not to end it. It is to bring it on to one's self or another. It isn't sustainable. You have a god that does not help pain, but passes it on. (Shira Clarwen and her ancestor who sought to give her the amulet?)

Another extreme taken to an extreme. Unsustainable.

Umberlee I actually like for one reason.

She is the sea incarnate. The whims of the ocean. The cruelty, the tumultuous violence, the senselessness-- and man's desperate need to appease it despite the futility of it all. The desperate need we feel to have some level of control over it. Maybe if we appease her or if we can gain her favor somehow--

We make foolish offerings in her name. We name our boats after women-- mothers-- to feel protected on the waves, almost reverting to a child like state in the face of her power. We pray to her, revere her in the hopes that she will spare us.

She has no real demands that we can understand. We can pretend we understand. We give her things that we would want. Gold. Riches. A piece of the treasure her benevolence allowed us to take. But really? She will turn on you for no real reason, and we are left to speculate.

She is the brutality of nature. A thing that man cannot tame or understand or truly appease. Her domain is vast and beautiful and she will protect it viciously. Sometimes, she will destroy you simply because she can.

Give her what you will, should it make you feel better. Offer up what you can. There is no true way to know. You can hope and pray. You can watch your step. It might not matter in the slightest.

She is the patron of those who roam the seas and are dependent on Her whims. She is a form of nature. Cruel, lovely, and yet, we cannot resist. We traverse it because we feel the need-- because we must. But that will not save you.

There are some varied examples of what I think of the Gods. I highly prefer the ones that are open about their indifference. They are patrons of something, and not here for humanity. I find the ones that utterly rely on humanoid worship and yet remain utterly indifferent or even cruel absurd and irritating. Shar and her bullshit and the the ones like her. Even worse are the ones that claim to be 'virtuous' and yet use that Godhood for nothing.

I am sure there are good things to be said about Good Gods, but they seem like celebrities to me. They come out once in a blue moon and do some miracle that costs them nothing and demand worship for the next 200 years while they allow horrific things to happen to those that give them power. When questioned? Always some bullshit nebulous answer. It is the people who worship them who do good. They are ideas to uphold, and that is the only true good they serve.

The evil Gods? The manmade Gods like the Dead Three? At least they are open. They are honest-- and that is more than you can say for most of these Gods. The rest are figureheads that cannot even get off their own ass to stand for their ideals. They rely on man to carry it out.

So I ask: Do we really need them? Other than the devastation they threaten? Other than fear? What use are they? The evil Gods offer fear openly and readily. The others? A silent threat. A waiting fist. A sheathed sword.

Mystra? Oh, the almighty goddess of Magic. Without her, the weave dissipates. So, that means she gets to run rampant, because what is one life-- or millions-- against her own? The greater evil for a lesser good, I suppose? Lathander, who could not protect his own devout and yet wielded the power of the morning sun?

And what of the afterlife? What of that promise? That security? It is known that Shar will abandon her followers once they die. Is it truly outlandish to believe the others do too? They didn't care about you when you gave them power-- when you were alive. What use are you to them now? A bronze piece they cannot trade? A weight in their pocket? Useless.

The kingdoms are built by mortal hands. They are maintained by mortal hands. They are protected by mortal hands. The gods claim credit, but what is it, exactly, that they truly deserve credit for? Morals? A symbol? What is it? The masons who laid the stone? The young men who died protecting it? The wisdom of the king who ruled it?

The raiders earn their credit, as do their Gods. They own the blood on their swords. The meat in their teeth. The cruelty in their hearts. They earn it. Their God sits as an advisor, ever present and ever demanding. Palpable.

That's more than I can say for the pantheon. Faerun or otherwise.

[mamas-filly]

Just so theres no confusion theres nothing more important in my life then @mama-scarebear! I have a job, a house, a bunch of prospects, but those are all nothing in comparison to Mama! Its such a privledge to devote more and more of life to her!

[gctchell]

Part of the eventual signs of worship/tributes post for Martha, but this woman does not fuck without it being a tribute to the King of Lust himself. 💓 Everything in lust with her is an ode to him. That's one of her biiiiiiiiiig Infernals right there.
