Hera's relationship with Apollo is something that should be studied, in this essay I-
#like imagine the hatred at his birth#another bastard of her husband#and then the grudging respect when he kills python#not because its python but because he avenged his mother's assault#and maybe she wishes someone would avenge HER assault#and when hes exiled she just the tiniest bit admires artemis' strength#how she is so firm about her virginity and how shes a protector of women#so she wont like apollo when he comes back but she might not hate him#and then when he's given his domains and he so much better than her sons and so much more of zeus' favourite she HATEs him#(she wishes he were hers)#but when she decides to rebel against zeus hes one of the only gods that join her.#of course they fail but thats got to unite them somehow#right?#and then when he storms olympus after Asclepius dies (is murdered)#when he kills the elder cyclopes as a deliberate jab at zeus#not even caring about the consequences#well shes got to respect that#and they might drift apart after the trojan war#being on opposite sides and all#but i like to think she views him more than just her husbands bastard#hera#hera goddess#apollo#apollo greek god#greek mythology
