Why don't people talk about Uncle-eaters as much as Anteaters?
The counterpart to ant is not uncle, but aphid. Thus, the theoretical "uncle-eater" you speak of is in fact the humble ladybug. Someday, ladybugs and anteaters will mate to produce the super-predator of all insectoids and the world itself will finally be free of their ecologically necessary rule, and can finally die.
More important is the nature of the aunt-eater, which does parallel the uncle-eater. All siblings of parents will be consumed by them in time, and when the pibling-eaters starve and their bloated forms litter the landscape, the world will regrow from the carnage of the antpocalypse and achieve its final form. Then and only then, Mr. Snuffleupagus shall wipe away all tears from our eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
These are my beliefs as a Muppetologist.

Sir Pentious, Angel Dust with a sibling!reader
Type: headcanons
Relationship: sibling (blood/found family)
Warnings: spoilers, mentions Valentino (he's a warning himself), some curse words
Angel Dust
He's your number 1 supporter. Got a new hobby? Genuinely likes your passion. Got a new hairstyle? Says it compliments your style. Had a shitty day? Get ready for a self-care session with snacks and some films
You have the privilege of putting Fat Nuggets in baby onesies. Angel's favourite one is when you found a spider one
You're not allowed anywhere near Valentino and his studio. Angel makes sure he never finds out you even exist. He doesn't know what he will do if you ever suffer the same way he does. However, it doesn't stop you two from shit-talking about that bald moth
If you ever get a romantic partner, they better get ready for tons of questions. He justifies it by saying it's hell, you can't be too careful here
He gets flustered if you ever tease him about Husk
Sir Pentious
Convinces you to stay at Hazbin hotel with him, unless you were staying there already
Makes you different trinkets, like a music box with snakes in your favourite colour(s). He thought it's a nice way to combine your likes and his
You're the Egg Boys' aunt/uncle/pibling (parent's sibling). If Pentious is busy or needs to do something alone, they automatically go to you
If you ever become an overlord, he will be soooo petty. Definitely grumbles about it at first but genuinely supports you
Confides in you about his not-so-sectet crush on Cherry, you can't convince me otherwise. Asks you for advice because we all know he's an awkward but cute wreck around her
Once he's in heaven, the first thing he asks is how are you. He wouldn't stop asking until he's given an answer
A/N: gifs aren't mine, the creators are written under them

How was ewen and Narinder as parents raising Bell? Was Narinder constantly keeping eyes on her? Was ewen chill? And the bishops being aunt, uncles, pibling to her?
Narinder, and her "big brothers" alm and baal are very protective while Ewen is the spoiler who all but encourages her to missbehave. Since it's 3 v one she's MOSTLY a proper godlette, but she has a sharp mouth on her and fights dirt if you piss her off (mostly it's her cousins). Narinder secretly works with her to return the other crowns to power, while Ewen secretly works with her to translate old magics and the mystic messengers language so she can summon and flirt with their servent who's watching over her.
She was the last child to be born of the God family so she's the baby niece of all the siblings and they also spoil the heck out of her. They're living elsewhere though do they only visit

I want Stolas to find all of his half-siblings on Paimon’s side and host a huge party/reunion and see that his home is full of love and realize he has a family he can get to know and bond with. I want Octavia to have a million uncles and aunts and piblings (parent-siblings). I want Blitz to be welcomed into Stolas’ life by people who can laugh about how fucked up it is to have a shitty dad. I want a cathartic party where all the adults get super drunk and make bad jokes and exchange stupid presents.
I want Stolas’s palace to be a home.

Do you have any thoughts on what powers the children of Persephone would have?
Yeah - so Persephone is the goddess of springtime and nature, and queen of the underworld. The springtime/agricultural aspect should always be more prominent than the underworld aspect, which, imo, should become more powerful during the months Persephone is at home in the underworld, but never more powerful than her flower powers.
There should be a great deal of overlap between this kids and their aunts/uncles/piblings (parents' siblings, lol, not a common term but I read it once a billion years ago and I still love it 😂 niblings is the niece/nephew equivalent). Demeter's kids should have stronger control over the earth and agricultural nature (grains and other plants typically used as crops). Persephone's kids, in my opinion, either should have no control of the earth or very minimal geokinetic abilities, unrelated to plants.
Because she is often described as queen of the underworld versus god of, as Hades is, and the underworld does not share its name with her, as it does with Hades, there should be much larger limitations between the overlap of Hades' children's powers and the powers of her kids when it comes to the dark and spooky. Nonetheless, her kids should feel just as comfortable in the shadows as they do in the sunlight. They are likely strongest during the spring months - but as springtime varies between calendars and hemispheres, maybe it's up to their perception of spring or it's strictly related to what the ancient Greeks would have thought of as spring.
So first and foremost, the springtime!
Inducement of spring, obviously. It's varies from creating spring because they can only induce spring-like nature within the realms of the area they're in. So they can't make Bermuda-like spring weather in Iceland.
They can grow and manipulate nature, especially with flowers. I headcanon Persephone to be wild and experimental. Where Demeter is the clean lines of agricultural and crops, Persephone is the vines reclaiming abandoned cars and houses. So this power is very easy for them to go overboard with; requires practice to keep it mitigated and small. This power is reliant on pre-existing plant life, so the kids will often carry packets of seeds (and maybe dirt) with them in the event they end up without direct access to nature.
They can grow plants in non-native, undesirable, or out of season areas, like a tree from a crack in the sidewalk. However, without prolonged assistance, that plant may shrivel up and die, like a water-heavy plant in the desert will dry up once the kid stops manipulating it, but in the moment, they can drop a seed, plant it and have it spring forth fully grown and whatnot.
This does in fact mean they could shove a seed or plant into a human body and have it root and grow out of that person. Like. For anyone who wants a little bloody bloody speculation 👀 (Fun fact: I like to think this was one of Demeter's combat moves during the Titan War, shoot an arrow and grow plants from the body of enemies that get hit 👍)
Rain! With spring comes rain, so I think they can manifest small drizzles of rain when needed. It's nothing particularly fantastic, but it can be useful.
They can revive dead plants, fortify them, and even mutate DNA in certain plants (though this is a tougher power to execute and requires both a lot of practice and mental effort). Mutation may not work out if the goal is to combine two plants with features that are not compatible - but crossbreeding unrelated plants is possible through them
Sunlight! Springtime is associated with the emergence of the sun and longer hours of daylight. This power, like with rain, is very minimal. Most kids are able to create a gentle low light with only their hands that they typically use on their indoor plants. It will never be as bright or powerful as, say, the Apollo, or even Zeus, kids (Zeus is god of the sky, the sun is in the sky, yes, I think they can glow)
With enough practice some kids are able to manifest small orbs of light, but it requires a lot of effort and is not as sustainable. Luckily they have good night vision (underworld bonus) so it's not as necessary, but still
They can physically connect to nature, which allows them to "see" areas that are otherwise out of sight (eg, enemies hiding in the trees or bushes, waiting for an ambush). Downside of this power is that damage to the plant life around them can cause physical pain and incapacitate them.
Similar to my headcanon that Nico is instinctively attuned to souls at a greater sense than would be natural to his siblings, some of Persephone's kids have an instinctive connection to nature and often bogged down by physical and mental health issues as a result due to pollution, poor or minimal conditions of the nature around them (like living in the city where nature is not as extensive as it would be I'm the countryside), parasite/pest infestations in gardens, crops, and such, etc.
Like with Nico and souls, it requires effort and practice to disconnect from nature enough to function daily. Persephone provides medication, disability aids, extremely healthy plants to invigorate them as needed, and frequently checks up on her kids with this issue, especially these days when nature is at its most pained.
Springtime is associated with rebirth and renewal, so they can utilize the life and energy of the plants around them to energize, heal and/or revive themselves or people. It takes a lot of effort and requires a lot of energy. Hades' children can do this as well. Both instances will kill the plant(s) used, but the flower power kids can revive the plant(s) afterwards - so long as the plant(s) in question haven't crumbled to ashes or, it's not, say, like an entire forest, because that might require a little bit more energy than they can extend. Persephone's kids can also use this power to stop someone from entering the underworld, so long as a) their soul has not been collected, b) their body is still in good condition (not decayed, rotted, etc), and c) an extensive period of time hasn't passed
Example One: I'm stabbed and I die. They exchange the life of a nearby tree for mine only a few seconds later and I'm revived.
Example Two: I'm stabbed and I die. They come across my corpse several hours/a couple days later. My soul still hasn't been collected because Hermes and Thanatos are still busy. Depending on the strength of the kid, they may be able to revive me fully BUT at the expense of more than one tree.
Example Three: I'm stabbed and I die. Hermes immediately collects my soul. I'm not in the underworld yet, just his shoulder bag with other souls. They cannot revive me.
Example Four: I have been dead for decades. My soul is still wandering because I am an atheist and refuse to go any underworld and also I bit several psychopomps when they tried so now they ignore me. The kid cannot revive me.
Example Five: I was burned to death. They find me immediately and revive me, but because the extent of my injuries exceed what they can heal via life exchange, I die again in agony and mentally curse them out for bringing me back to suffer once more.
👍👍👍
Now for the underworld powers!
Death sense, although it is weak and if the corpse in question is dead underground or has been dead for a very long time, they may not notice as quickly as Thanatos' and Hades' children would. Hermes' kids have the same issue with their death sense.
Ability to summon, see, and touch ghosts. While they can manipulate or control various spirits as children of Hades can, it requires a lot more effort to do so, especially during the months Persephone is topside, so her kids often don't bother with trying it on stray/uncollected souls (easier to use on summoned souls)
Necromancy, of course. It's easier for them to control corpses or bones. They have a harder time control large groups. Implications that would occur with a child of Hades summoning a dead body are often missed by children of Persephone, typically requiring verbal orders for the corpse to get shit done
Example: Nico senses a corpse underground and summons it. The implication along with his summoning is to be quiet as it digs its way out of the ground in order to catch Nico's captor by surprise. His step-sibling senses a corpse underground and summons it. The corpse in question may not catch the implication applied to its awakening and just continues to lay where it was buried until it receives clearer orders from the child that summoned it. They have an easier time resurrecting dead bodies and getting across the unspoken implications of the resurrection with physical touch
Corpses that spoke a different language in life, were deaf or hard or hearing, or anything else I'm missing that relates to verbally and/or audibly understanding another person, may be harder to control, especially if that mental connection (idk how else to phrase it) between them and the corpse(s) is lacking
Side note: this is just to display another example of how the overlap of powers between both step-siblings differs, it's not the holy grail, practice makes perfect and they could get on the level of their step-siblings over time, and honestly I'll probably ignore/forget the distinction myself at times, lol
They can understand skeletal chatter and ghostly whispers that would otherwise be incomprehensible to other people (Thanatos' and Hermes' kids can also understand ghostly whispers. However, skeletal chatter is usually not comprehensible to them)
Instinctive underground senses - like with Hazel in SoN, being able to walk around the tunnels without a map
Some darkness manipulation - not enough for shadow-traveling by themselves (solo travel is typically only possible via VERY short distances, a group of them working together may be able to go longer); enough to be able to blend into shadows and hide themselves, or utilize darkness to defend
Traveling through dreams (I like to think Hypnos gifts this to a lot of the Underworld kids as a little bonus, save for Hades' kids where the power is innate due to Hypnos being part of the Underworld)
Human life exchange, aka taking the life/health from one person to give it someone else. Children of Hades can do this as well, and have a far easier time with it. It costs them a lot of energy and effort, so Persephone's kids typically use it in tandem with taking life from the nature around them. Rebirth is both an underworld thing and associated with springtime, so it works.
Although similar to the above, they cannot, or struggle, do a flat death touch. If they want to kill someone with a touch, the life they're taking has to go somewhere.
And I think that's a good amount of stuff. Of course there's always more that that's possible, and again, these are just my thoughts - anyone else is welcome to come up with their own ideas. If you have thoughts on their powers, even if they contradict my own, feel free to add them or hmu about them! Love to hear other people's ideas 😊
Oh! Lol, headcanon that the seed packets the kids like to keep on hand for emergencies are mint 😂

Vandeth! (the language)
Let’s talk about words for family, since it’s on my mind.
Let’s start simple. The word for family is kabila.
Spouses
In Vandeth, you’d call your wife suma, and you’d call your husband mokot. To refer to your spouse more vaguely, you’d say ziva ir-jai [ir-lilis], which literally means “[my] soul’s joy”. The part in red is omitted when talking about someone else’s spouse, and usually left out when meaning your own, as it makes the phrase quite long.
Parents
The words for mother and father are mala and kola, respectively. However, most kids call their parents mam and dad. (The A is pronounced as “ah” in both.) They’re very simple sounds for kids to say, which is actually the real-world reason why they’re common words world-wide. To refer to both parents, you’d use varen.
Siblings
The words for brother and sister are gesh and zova. So, an only son might frequently lament about how his six zovan constantly get on his nerves. The word for sibling is teshiv, though it’s most often used in the plural, teshiven.
Children
So, what you call your kids depends on whether you’re the mother or father. If you’re the mother, you’ll call your daughter genli, and your son genmo. But if you’re the father, you call your son genli, and your daughter gensu.
It gets more complicated. If you’re talking to a mother, you call her daughter genthi and her son genmo. If you’re talking to a father, you call his son genthi and his daughter gensu.
The word for child is simply genvare.
Aunts, Uncles, and Cousins
Here’s where it gets fun. If you have an aunt, you’d call her your zovir. If you have an uncle, you’d call him your geshir. And if you have a pibling who is non-binary, you’d call them your teshivir. Or to refer to all your aunts and uncles, your teshiviren. See, these words come from a pretty basic structure: “[sibling word] ir-[parent word]”. So, to say “my aunt on my father’s side”, you’d say “zova ir-kola ir-lilis”, which literally means “my father’s sister”.
Cousins are similar, except instead they come from the structure “vir-[child word] ir-[sibling word] ir-[parent word]”. And the words for your kids are complicated. So, if you want to refer to your female cousin, the daughter of your aunt on your father’s side, you’d say vir-genthir., which in full would be vir-genthi ir-zova ir-kola. To refer to all your cousins, you say vir-teshivariren. The vir- here comes from the word ji-vir, meaning “far” or “distant”.
It’s convoluted, I know.
Nieces and Nephews
You should know the drill by now. Since your nieces and nephews are the kids of your siblings, that’s what you call them. “[child word] ir-[sibling word]”. So your nephew, by your sister, is your genmir. (The O is removed, as are all ending vowels, and replaced with the ir.)
And yeah! I’m a huge nerd for this, and made it a lot more complicated than it has to be. But that’s part of the fun.

Kate lives in her apartment somewhere in the richer parts of Gotham city but I couldn't find where exactly so still scouring through the comics for that.
Uh when you said 'with tags' I assume you want me to tag the post with the tags I usually use right? I'll do that and if tahts not what you meant then I'll edit post later.
My other rp blog is @official-batwoman and I'll make the for her and tag you in it.
