In which Persephone is told she can't game the system- (TEXT EDIT)
no art was edited here, just text to make this more realistic to how this scene WOULD have gone if it was an actual courtroom with real rules LOL I find it a little weird that Rachel wrote a courtroom drama arc like this and then twisted it this much to benefit Persephone because like... clearly she was inspired by courtroom drama shows, and I can't help but wonder if she got all of her basic courtroom knowledge from like, Spongebob or some shit LOL
#it literally could have been a forum or something a little more#idk#GREEK ???#get tf outta here persephone#choosing your own boyfriend as your attorney#he shouldn't even be a judge on this case let alone an attorney#wtf was zeus thinking#where the FUCK is athena#athena would never let this happen#this edit means a lot to me because the trial arc was basically my canon event where I started to doubt LO and Rachel#like i had had so much suspension of disbelief up until persephone chose hades to be her attorney LOL#and then the eris twist was the last straw#lo critical#anti lore olympus#lore olympus critical#antiloreolympus

hmm what if lukatill round 7 murder suicideā¦.hmm
idk guys i just canāt imagine till realistically overcoming the fact he just witnessed his childhood friend both confessing his feelings and sacrificing himself for him + not knowing where mizi is. like i can imagine maybe the closest is him doing a twisted version of what he did in round 3 where he just goes completely off script but like. its not planned. hes just spiraling. but mehh idk dude is probably more crushed than he already was
and narratively speaking i donāt think it makes sense for luka to just straight up win the round. like thatās kind of an anticlimatic way to end the last round
what feels to be the most in character, at least based off my idea that luka is going to somehow be unnerved by tillās similarity with hyuna, would be a murder suicide situation but man. anything goes
#alien stage#beans of consciousness#expanding on my thoughts from a week ago. suddenly murder suicide popped in my head and i was like. ykw#thats plausible.#esp bc everyone in this fucking series is doomed#would also make sense given my delusional othello allegories w till#othello ends w a murder suicide#also if the prince of alien stage dies then that gives a leeway for zeus to take over#*weeks wtf#ik we want to see till alive but i do not think itll happen by him winning#that doesnt seem like qmeng and vivinosā style#nor does it seem like the story that alien stage wants to tell#if im wrong then im wrong#but like mmm i dunno LOL

The other night I was thinking about how Idia is really a twisted version of Hades, like:
Zeus (younger brother) makes Hades (eldest brother) stay in the Underworld ā Idia (eldest brother) makes OG!Ortho (younger brother) stay in the Underworld (unwillingly tho)
Hades wants to overthrow Zeus ā Idia wants to save/free OG!Ortho
Hades hates Zeus ā Idia loves Ortho
#Not saying that Ortho is Zeus just found it interesting#I'm not sure if in the movie they specified that Hades was the eldest brother tho#I dunno I just think about the Shroud brothers and cry#Idia Shroud#Ortho Shroud#twisted wonderland#wtf did i start using proper capitalization???

#most of them are about trent crimm my beloved but one is inexplicably about jamie and a giant stuffed animal#one of them is a deeply stupid crack fic that spawned from the sentence:#Halfway through the press conferenceā a portal opens up in the front of the room and a second Trent Crimm trips out.#which literally just sprung fully formed from my brain at like 2 am like athena crashing forth from zeus's skull#and i was like hey brain? what the fuck. and my brain was just like :)#and i got a few pages out of that. but idk if i'll ever add more bc wtf.#and so on.#there are actually a lot of others but the others i think i'll adapt into some things#there's just like. about five?#two ancient ones (one of which is slightly edited by now to be a little more detailed/up to date)#a jamie one i think if i published now i'd add to a little first but still wouldn't feel like ap roper oneshot unless it did#the portal thing. and then one that i rather like but i dont know how to expand but is rather short#so. yeah. anyway#five ted lasso snippets anyone?#the others i think i'll keep in my pocket.

Aight now let the God Games begin.
Apollo: Uh I... Like killing that many Sirens was slight overkill don't you think?
Athena: Tbf the sirens are massive bitches...
Apollo: Fair, that was good vocal work sis, let him go.
Hephaestus: Trust is not given it's FORGED (winks) you see what I did there? Anyways he sacrificed his entire crew that wasn't his best moment.
Athena: Yes, but if you let him go, he can still BUILD a future with his fam.
Hephaestus (laughing): Good one, let him go.
Aphrodite: Odysseus should have been home sooner then his Mom wouldn't have died.
Athena:
Athena: Wtf seriously?
(Quick Thought)
Athena: Come on, Aphrodite.
Ares: DON'T MESS WITH MY GIRL ALSO YOUR ODYSSEUS IS A SLY BITCH JUST LIKE YOU AND HIS SON'S A LOSER.
Athena: (rage activate) DON'T YOU DARE SPEAK OF MY BOY LIKE THAT!
Ares: gods okay chill
Aphrodite: awww so cute you do have a heart
Athena: Besides Ares we can watch ody kill all those assholes in his palace and I'll get popcorn.
Ares: GREAT FUCKING DEAL!
Hera: Look I've been pretty pissed at Zeus lately just gimme one good reason.
Athena: So he's smart.
Hera:
Athena: He's... Uh... Did I mention he's smart?
Hera:
Athena: He's kinda funny.
Hera: seriously?
Athena: Okay goddamnit he's not a serial cheater like Dad alright?
(Collective gasps, Hermes is lying on the floor laughing silently)
Apollo: Oh wow.
Artemis: She actually just said that.
Athena: (internally) shit fuck just act like you didn't just say that.
Hera: Husband goals, let him go.
Athena: (internally) act natural... (To Zeus) So I won, let him go.
Zeus: You little shit-

Also, look at Apollo's response to Percy insisting all demigods be claimed and taken to CHB just a chapter or two prior:
"They won't be left out in the world on their own at the mercy of monsters. I want them claimed and brought to camp so they can be trained right, and survive." "Now, wait just a moment," Apollo said, but I was on a roll. (TLO 353)
To Percy at the time, and on a Doylist level in terms of where the series was at with his characterization in fuckin' 2009, his protestations come across as typical self-absorbed drivel in the face of being accused of anything less than perfection. And while him framing his protestations that way fits with his characterization as it emerges in the rest of the series, in light of the wonderful readings that others in this thread have performed there is another level to them, one that spurs him to try to rebuild his foothold in camp asap and damn the consequences.
As the previous rb mentioned, Apollo has just lost several children to this war. He has just had it driven home in the worst way possible that CHB may not, in fact, be the safest place for his kids; it may be a streamlined way of giving them to Zeus to use as pawns in his power struggles. But now, Percy is forcing the gods' hands. Percy is institutionalizing CHB and binding all of the gods to it. This makes complete sense from Percy's perspective. He is a kid, camp is his home, and he is in the moment where he is speaking feeling fairly lenient and well-disposed towards the gods. He is willing to assume the best of them, willing to forgive Hermes, willing to ignore Ares' abuse (side note: I hate that motherfucker, get the fuck away from clarisse, I stg i will kill him), and willing to overlook the atrocities he has learned Zeus and Hades committed. He just wants the gods to be part of their kids' lives, at least enough for the kids to understand what's going on. And yeah that's a better deal overall for the half-bloods than they've had so far. But from Apollo's perspective, given his waning power within camp, Zeus' growing influence, and the recent fates of his children, jesus christ that is a terrifying ultimatum.
Building on what everyone else in this thread has established, Zeus has been elbowing him out of camp, repeatedly using it as a blackmail chip to get heroes to do what he wants them to. (I'm thinking of the way the weather reflects his threats in TLT and TTC, the way Percy is pressured into quests through fear of what Zeus will do to his friends and to their sanctuary). And now Percy is giving Apollo no choice - he *will* keep turning over his kids. No wiggle room. Camp's size and influence seems like it has been fading over the past years. Many demigods are said to have "disappeared"; not died, just not come back after a summer. I wonder how much of that could have been those who cared about them - parents both mortal and immortal - wanting to keep them out of the action, preferring their chances against monsters to their chances in a war. Point being, camp has not been the default in the time leading up to the Titan War. Not being at camp is dangerous, but being at camp has been dangerous as well.
Percy wants camp to be the default. Percy wants there to be systems in place, a safety net for demigods to rely upon. And he's so so right to want that. But he is a kid and he does not fully recognize (or want to recognize, understandably) how fucked it is, how capricious the safety net can be (the conditions of Zeus' protection), how it is paid for in blood (the quests, the unnecessary dangers, the poorly-planned 'training exercises'), how there is so much room for abuse within it (Tantalus, Mr. D at his worst, bullying on an inter-camper level with Clarisse, Drew, Sherman). But, at least to some extent, Apollo does, even he pretends not to. So when his hand is forced, he immediately moves to try to have some oversight of camp, some more involvement, to build up some of his power to protect or at least monitor it more. He instates Rachel as oracle immediately after the council concludes before anyone has time to react. Camp Half-Blood has been (re-?)established as Thee place for Greek demigods, and if that is inevitable then god damn Apollo going to put all his effort into being a part of it again rather than letting Zeus continue to alternately manipulate and abandon it uncontested.
oo now im interested in that apollo is chb'd patron thing would you care to elaborate on that??
@stereden also asked this! Thereās not so much canon for this as some of the other things Iāve talked about but thereās still a few things to say on the topic, and not only am I going to talk about him being the patron, Iām going to talk about how that works with the things that happen with CHB during the PJO series, and of course because weāre talking about Apollo, thereās the odd little titbit from TOA that makes its way into this, too.
A lot of this will be extrapolation, but Iāve done my best to keep more floating headcanons out of it, so this should at least all stem convincingly from canon.
Iām going to address two things under this umbrella, because I think theyāre related and also because I find them fascinating: Apollo as the patron god of CHB, and Apolloās loss of jurisdiction over CHB by the events of canon.
So, Apollo and the patronage of CHB. While Camp Half-Blood Confidential is pretty goofy and daft in tone, it gives us a few important little nuggets of information regarding the founding of the camp, namely that it was Apolloās idea - or at the very least, Apollo foresaw that it would happen/needed to happen.

As much as I love overprotective Clarisse which believe me I DOšš am I the only one who kinda wants to see a protective reader if something happens to Clarisse or even Ivy?!
I feel like Clarisse may just sit back and be Yh thatās my girl š¤
Literally kicking my feet and giggling while writing this
Also I love your writing so much itās so goodddd I check my phone for any new posts all the time and scream when you do
TYSMMMMM BAE ILY!!!!!! been in a writing slump recently. someone else please write a mind bogglingly good clarisse fic to inspire me again. lord give me strengthā¦
forget the fact this is 2 days late. thank yāall šš
anyways officially adding danny to the perfect family bc I DO WHAT I WANT!!!!!!!!!!!
ok so imagine this
clarisse is participating in some sort of contest
like
idk roman gladiators LMAOOOO
but basically itās like a big tournament? and yk sheās destroying eating it up cooking, whatever you will
finally she gets to like the semi-finals and atp everyone kinda knows she has it in the bag
her opponents are scared
(trust an underground betting ring was formed. everyone who bet on clarisse is thanking the gods and everyone who didnāt is shaking in their boots)
clarisse is happy bc you and the twins (danny and ivy)
are sitting right in the front row cheering her on
and she got a wonderful good luck kiss from you
so not only is she happy and thinking about that but also sheās convinced that sheāll win just bc she got a kiss from you
so the fight starts, ivy is genuinely SCREECHING at the top of her lungs sheās so me she canāt be normal about anything ever
and you and danny are just regularly cheering for her š
eventually someone behind you tells ivy to shut up
YOU WHIP AROUND BC WTF???
harshest death glare in the universe. like even zeus would be a little scared.
ivy doesnāt even notice sheās chill
the other person quickly shuts the fuck up.
then you turn back to watch clarisse and the fights just starting, the other dude is scared and knows his ass barely stands a chance
sheās having fun pummeling him
ugh fight scenes are hard to write
so eventually she tosses his ass to the floor
āGO MOM GO GO GO BEAT HIS ASS MOM BEAT. HIS. ASS.ā
āIVY STOP FUCKING SWEARINGā
and this dude, whoās laid on the ground, who knows heās cooked, decides the best option is to grab some dirt and throw it in clarisseās face
and no one was prepared for this
like clarisse was standing over him with her spear at his throat, smile on her face, everyone knew he was done for- THEN HE DECIDES TO PLAY DIRTY AND DO THIS???
like everyone thought clarisse had it in the bag
the rules for this competition were that youāre not allowed to use anything but your person and/or pre-approved weapon(s)
NOT EVEN CLARISSE WAS EXPECTING IT
SO SHES DISTRACTED BY THE FREAKING DIRT IN HER FACE
SO WHEN THIS BITCH KICKS HER SHE GOES DOWN
DEAD SILENT!!!!!!!
EVERYONE GASPS!!!!!!!
whispers in the crowdā¦ āoh bro is cookedā¦ā
(sorry iām obsessed w saying cooked rn)
and he is cooked
but by someone unexpected.
clarisse is wiping the dirt off of her face swallowing her shame she canāt believe she got distracted and let herself fall she should have saw it coming but suddenly she hears someone screaming
she opens her eyes and sees you menacingly walking towards this dude, whoās still on the ground and scrambling away
and whatās funny it youāre yelling at him like a mother would
the crowd is gigglingā¦
āTHAT IS AGAINST THE RULES. WERE YOU NEVER TAUGHT MANNERS??? WERE YOU NEVER TAUGHT DECENCY??? SHAME ON YOU SHAME ON YOUR PARENTS SHAME SHAME SHAMEā
clarisse is literally sitting there mouth dropped open when you grab his ear and he HOWLS
dragging him back towards clarisse, heās kicking and screaming and literally CRYING
āHELP HELP HELP ME HELP SHE CANT SO THIS SHE CANT I DIDNT DO ANYTHING WRONGā
āYES THE FUCK I CAN YOU BROKE THE FUCKING RULES NOW APOLOGIZE YOU LAWLESS SWINEā
āI DIDNT DO ANYTHING PLEASE I DIDNTā
one of the apollo kids who organized the event is looking around (kinda enjoying it) but mostly very scared
ātechnically you did break the rulesā¦ sorry palā¦ā
āPLEASE PLEASE HELP MEā
obviously, this is the hottest thing clarisse has ever seen in her life.
sheās sitting back on her palms, watching in utter amazement, trying not to bite her lip
someone loving clarisseā¦ that gets her going
someone loving clarisse enough to PROTECT HER??? sheās about to explode. EXPLODE. sheās never needed you so bad in her life LMAOOOO š
and this bitch is STILL refusing to apologize
like damn itās not that hardā¦ itās not like you have any pride left to speak of you just got dragged around by the ear šš bro youāre cooked just apologize and get out while you can
AND YOUāRE GETTING FED UP WITH IT TOO
āhey, dumbass, why donāt you look at the stands?ā
you point, and everyone follows your finger.
ivy is a literal cartoonish whirl of her pink t-shirt and the white shorts with the little trees on them
danny is holding her back (with ease, might i add heās strong as fuck šŖ)
āiāll let her out.ā
āI DIDNT DO ANYTHING-ā
āLET HER OUTā
he barely escapes that attack.
when you finally call ivy off of her attack, she stands next to clarisse, literally growls at the dude, before hugging clarisse
clarisse is still on the ground in utter shock.
she canāt keep her eyes away from you and ivy. she canāt get rid of the GLOWING feeling in her chest
is thisā¦ what itās likeā¦ to be loved?
WAHHHHHH WAHHHHHHHH BITCH NOW IM THE ONE CRYING NOOOOOOOO ššš
danny eventually walks over and helps her up
then they all watch as you smile sweetly at this very traumatized dude and ask if heās ready to apologize
āIMMSORRUOHGOEE IMSORHR ESEBIMS YORUUEā
(iām sorry oh gods im sorry iām sorryā
then you walk over to clarisse, rolling your eyes and mumbling about bad parenting, girl she pounces on you.
kisses you so hard in front of everyone
ivy and danny are hugging each other and shielding each otherās eyes, screaming, begging for you two to stop
āy/nā she breathes as she pulls away āyou areā¦ the most amazing mother, the most amazing girlfriend, and literally the love of my fucking life.ā
literally twirling your hair āomg baeeeee youāre too sweet š¤ā
(yāall donāt end up leaving her cabin for a LONG time.)
after this clarisse definitely sort of realizes a whole new side of your relationship. seeing you publicly defend her like that, publicly care about her, love her, omg she is going crazy for you!!!
after this incident she definitely stops calling you her gf.
gives you a really pretty ring she got one of the hephaestus kids to make, starts calling you her wife
and nobody better have a problem w that lol or else they got two ares killing machines, one feral attack dog, and a literal mother who is not afraid to drag you by your ear.

I was having a good day until I realized how much objectifying Jason was subjected to, So many people just saw him as an object.
He was literally like placed like a historical artifact at Camp Jupiter because of his dad, everyone there only saw him as a legend, not as a person with real feelings. Camp Jupiter was all worshippy with him while he was there but was quick to turn on him after he disappeared, thinking he was dead and didn't even hold a funeral or anything, just moved on with zero thought of him and replaced him like he was some kind of statue.
Even Percy felt bad for staying at Jason's praetor room because he felt terrible for taking Jason's place just like that. So you just know how nonchalant people where when it came to Jason's disappearance. Nobody spoke of him fondly, no one bothered about Jason's wellbeing, To them, he was simply a chess piece that helped them succeed but they didn't care about his fate as long as they got a better replacement.
Please don't get me started on how Piper "claimed" Jason to drew without his knowledge like he was a prize or something. ("Stay away from Jason Grace, he's mine he just doesn't know it yet" Piper honey wtf was that š) only to dump him and be SO outwardly bitchy and hostile acting like she got dumped or something, post break up after he was fully in love with her. (Which is something she ironically said she would never do because, as she put it, she was "much different" than other Aphrodite girls) she ended up being more of a heartbreaker than drew herself.
Jason was also, as hazel put it, considered as Hera's pawn to stop gaia's plan.
Zeus didn't care about his death, because to him, Jason is simply one of the many children he has. He doesn't care of he loses one because he has plenty of other sons and daughters to carry his legacy.
Poor jason was just discarded like scrap after his purpose was fulfilled.
#Gosh so much objectification. Ppl just saw him as a pawn or a historical artifact#This man never had it authentic#pjo#percy jackson#pjo fandom#pjo hoo#jason grace#pjo series#pjo hoo toa#piper mclean#annabeth chase#leo valdez#frank zhang#hazel levesque

EPIC THE MUSICAL:
Zeus: I am gonna appear personally to you because why not and now choose my dear fellow! Yes I know I didn't give you a REAL choice years prior but now I am being clear this time so you choose them or your sorry ass?
Odysseus: Please don't make me do this! (Because the same thing worked wonders before!)
Zeus: Nope I think I will!
Odysseus: I'm sorry guys my wife waits
Them: Wtf?!
Odysseus: Sorry guys you must now join the other souls we so dramatically saw a few songs ago in the underworld. Bye!
The Odyssey:
Zeus: *never appears personally but he works as divine retribution against Odysseus comrades because Helios Hyperion wishes justice for his slain animals*
Odysseus: Makes one last attempt to save his men by sailing out of the island and actually TRYING to go home with them despite the fact he knows they are doomed from Tiresias's words and from Circe's warnings because he ACTUALLY CARES and he doesn't want to suffer the sea by himself and he wishes once more to try the inevitable and change fate even though he knows is impossible in a way adding more to the hubris thinking he can challenge fate.
#odysseus#greek mythology#the odyssey#tagamemnon#epic and odyssey differences#I'm sorry but why does it seem like getting worse and worse storywise?! ššš#seriously wtf?!#homer's odysseus#song melody wise is really good but seriously?!#why! just WHY!#a little āruntā#just a little runt#my boy is being underrstimated by that scene#homeric poems#homer odyssey#homeric odysseus is just its own thing!

i canāt stop thinking about how much i hate the āshe met a pineconeās fateā line. like sure itās marginally funny but what kind of dickhead says that to someoneās face when theyāre actively grieving the loss of their sister figure after all these years. i completely agree with groverās āwtfā reaction because that line was so uncharacteristic for percy. he canonically has moments where he wields his humor at inopportune times and his jokes fall flat but thatās always when facing down gods and monsters antagonizing him. making him say that line in this moment was in such bad taste because the percy i know would never make a comment like that to belittle a childās heroic and unjust sacrifice as well as the girl mourning her, especially after acknowledging zeus couldāve done better than turn thalia into a tree. where is his kindness and empathy bc itās little things like this that differentiate his characterization in the books versus the show

Okay this is random but I was thinking about the episode Persephone tells Hades about Apollo and sheās talking about loukoumi to deflect and she brings up that she likes to add orange or lemon juice(i canāt remember which one she was talking about and webtoon wonāt let me double check it) to her loukoumi when she makes it and how thatās unusual(I think anyway, again canāt make sure cuz wt sucks) But like? Itās not, you go to the airport in Greece and boom, that type of loukoumi is an option.
It's the same vibe I get now off that scene of Hera apologizing to Persephone for not having more vegetarian options in her home, and Zeus calling the practice a "waste of time"... but they're all clearly eating the same meal anyways and Mediterranean / Greek food is commonly vegetarian anyways ?? like wtf is Zeus talking about, it's really easy and commonplace to be vegetarian, like 70% of the Mediterranean diet is plant-based LMAO
like i guess that toast-looking thing is meant to be meat??? or maybe fish ig?? but again, it's not unheard of to be vegetarian in Greece anyways so idk what the fuck Zeus is talking about LMAO the only out-of-comic explanation I can think of is that Rachel Americanized LO so much that she thinks the old American joke of "haha stupid vegetarian! they're so inferior to us meat eaters!" can be applied to any culture (and that wouldn't be too insane of a stretch considering how much of the rest of LO is written through an American lens)
idk it's just dumb and goes to show how surface level Rachel's "research" is š

My thoughts on Ep. 4 - I Plunge to My Death, A rant
First off, Sally and baby Percy scene was so cute. I swear to god, no one will ever top Sally Jackson for being the best mortal parent in the series.
That Percabeth bonding scene in the train. Bruh, I cannot wait for the Kindness International truck and Waterland scenes.
Annabeth opening up about her Dad and Percy utterly shocked that not all mortal parents are like his Mom.
Frederickās college ring on Annabethās necklace. To non book-readers, yes, that's her Dad's name.
Annabeth having to earn Thaliaās respect.
Luke caring for Annabeth right away just makes it more gut-wrenching and heart-breaking with what heās about to do. (SPOILER ALERT) āFamily, Luke. You promised.ā
Grover being super grouchy when he doesnāt get enough sleep. And as someone in their twenties, I totally could relate to him.
This convo:
Percy : Can I ask a dumb question?
Annabeth: It's like you need me to make fun of you.
That's it, that's their relationship.
Mentioning the god of the wild, Pan, and that there are searchers for him.
How that convo basically went:
Train Cop: I donāt think you wanna take that tone with me, little girl.
Annabeth: EXFUCKINGCUSE ME?
Grover: Annabeth, no-!
Echidna calling the cops on 3 minors, just screams typical Karen behavior.
The St. Louis Arch being an actual temple of Athena is a nice change from Annabeth just wanting to go sightseeing.
This convo:
Percy: You've done more for me in the past few days than my father has done in my entire life. If I had to stick with someone, I-
Annabeth: Careful, I think you were about to call me a friend.
Percy: *stumbles because of the poison from the stinger*
Annabeth: *catches him*
Again, thatās their relationship.
Annabeth and Grover splashing water at Percy at a fountain when thereās a big-ass river nearby. Idk, but I find that funny.
Athena letting Echidna and the Chimera into the Arch because it wounded her pride? OH, HELL NO!
Athenaās Logic: Punish her devotee because someone close to them did something that wounded her pride. Medusa=Poseidon; Annabeth=Percy. She didnāt even gave a f*ck that the devotee in question is her own daughter. WTF, ATHENA!
I always thought Zeus has the crown for being the deadbeat absent godly parent, but Athena is slowly giving him a run for his money.
Annabeth deciding to sacrifice herself so Percy and Grover can continue the quest. WTF!
Percy tricking Annabeth into taking the final stand himself. Dude, your fatal flaw is showing.
Annabeth having to deal with a forbidden child sacrificing themselves for her safety AGAIN (With Thalia, and now Percy). Girl must be traumatized.
Grover having to go through it again as well.
The Chimera being terrifying than how non clear-sighted mortals see it.
Poseidon āalways been here/so hard for me to stand backā Daddy to the rescue.
This:
Percy: *gets stuck underwater*
Nereid: Itās okay. You father sent me-
Percy: Oh, hell no! *tries to swim harder*
Percy only now realizing he can breath underwater. Like, of course, he can. He's Poseidon's kid.
We're only in Episode 4 and it's already so good. Can't wait for the episode 5.

Me: I mean Plato also obviously stayed up at night thinking about Achilles and Patroclus doing a smooch so I'm basically a philosopher when I-
*gets zapped into a pile of ash*
Zeus: Damn shippers.
Me: So anyways as I was saying...
Zeus: wtf where did you come from
Me: Wouldn't you like to know weather boy. Anyways, if you look at the ancient scholarship it's not clear if most people thought if it was pederasty or if...
Zeus: *desperately plugging his ears and humming to drown me out*
Me: *pulls his finger out of his ear* I feel like you're not taking this seriously.
