sometimes being devoted to aphrodite means noticing doves singing out of your house, them being always present wherever you go. sometimes it means bathing in the sea, thinking about how she was born. sometimes it means picking seashells to offer to her, thinking “she will love these”. sometimes it is just thinking about her and worshipping her silently. i love her soso much, because with her everything is so peaceful.

This has nothing to do with the holidays.
Two sketches stitched together: the first is based off of a Roman mosaic of a buncha sea creatures and deities. Phorkys is portrayed as an ichthyocentaur in shape, with crab forelimbs, and red spiky skin. It's weird, but a cool creature design. Meanwhile, Keto is completely humanoid and sitting on his tail. While drawing it, I had the idea that, of all the divine family tree, Pontus' branch is the most loving of each other. We all know about Zeus' infidelity, and Rhea helped her children kill her husband, but we never hear about the marital troubles of Phorkys and Keto, or Ekhidna and Typhoeus.
Proteus, meanwhile, is taken from both Ovid's Fasti and the Odyssey. In the latter he's a shepherd of seals, so he has a bit of seal-ish whiskers and a slightly pointed face. Ovid describes him as having azure hair, which is dripping. (ᵇˡᵘᵉ ʰᵃᶦʳ, ᶦ ᵇᵉᵗ ʰᵉ ʰᵃˢ ᵖʳᵒⁿᵒᵘⁿˢ ᵗᵒᵒ...). Interestingly, the sea nymph that helps Menelaus capture Proteus says 'he is my father, or so they say'.

Hey guys! I was feeling creative, and I wrote a little something about a weird, spiritual feeling I had when I went on a night swim a couple of nights ago! I wouldn't exactly call it a poem, but it might be?
Anyway, have a read if you would like to!
Untitled, I guess
My friends and I went for a night swim at the ocean baths a couple of nights ago. 
This is usual for us. 
I end up being the only one out of the three of us who gets in the water. 
That’s fair. 
The cold chills their bones and the wind whips their hair, so there they stay at the pool's edge as the water swirls around their ankles. 
I move further, descending into the centre, finding myself at the very heart. 
The cold wraps around me like a blanket 
and it sinks into my bones,
I am warm.
I look to the ocean and I whisper a hello to the sea gods. 
I thank them for their presence, for their love and for their pain. 
They breathe life into this world.
They’ve looked after me since I was young. 
I love them. 
I tell them as much, with my head tilted up and my arms spread wide. 
The currents dance around me, fold me into their embrace, and I let them. 
The stars make themselves known, specks in the inky blackness behind.
I close my eyes. 
I breathe in
Somewhere, someone laughs. A dog barks. The seagulls sing. Children splash and play.  
Even in the dark of night, this place is 
Vibrant. 
Alive. 
I open my eyes. 
I breathe out. 
Two sets of blocky stairs descend into the water in front of me, and they are illuminated by the bewitching combination of moonlight, starlight, and the LED spotlights that shine down from the four corners of the pool. 
I am convinced that these stairs would take me somewhere incredible. They alight with hope, and their light mingles and dances with the darkness on the surface of the water.
They promise me safety, they promise me adventure.  
I do not heed their song. I do not follow their call.
Instead, I turn around
and slowly make my way back to my friends. 
They watch me approach with eager eyes, and I smile.
