Don’t get me wrong, I love all of the mlm greek myths and retellings.

But what we need is more sapphic retellings of greek myths. And by that I mean give me Medusa and a blind girl.

Give me a kind, soft, sweet girl who was everything as a kid. Who had a future. Who could have been everything she ever wanted. Give me a girl who lost all hope as she lost her eyesight. Who gave up on life. Give me a girl who was still everything but refused to believe so.

Give me Medusa, who wanted to be loved. Who could have been soft and kind but was prevented from doing so. Give me her anger and resentment toward men, and toward herself. Give me Medusa who thinks she will spend the rest of her life as a villain who has nothing to offer the world except for shame.

And give me them finding themselves within one another. Give me a girl who is soft and gentle to Medusa, who doesn’t see her as a villain but as a person. Give me Medusa showing the girl that she is something whether she can see or not. Give me survivors. Give me two girls who are so seen by each other, that despite their isolating factors come together and are so completely in love with each other they have no choice but to accept it. I want cute dialogues and soft touches. I want healing and redemption. I want hurt and comfort. I want them to learn to love themselves and life, just as they love each other.
