"Oh my gods--it's you.."
Andromeda was tired, and she couldn’t feel much. After being a ghost and then getting back her own body.. it wasn’t easy.
“What. The. Fuck-”
She then walked a bit more, and she perked up, “N-Neo?..”

*he hugged her and melted into her crying* Andromeda?

Unpopular Opinions: Greek Mythology Addition
Danae, Perseus' mother, probably was in a polygamous relationship with the young couple on the island of Seriphos, who rescued them and helped raise the young Perseus. Evidence? It Was Greece.
Greeks were into BDSM. Evidence? Have you SEEN how many princesses they chain up??? Andromeda is a prime example, but there are more. I'm not entirely convinced that it was entirely for punishment purposes as opposed to *ahem* "punishment" purposes...
the Greeks had a deadly disease known as "attempt to foil the prophecy and end up fulfilling it as a result... itis"
Seriously, when will they LEARN???
Icarus is #relatable to me as a teenager and his death is absolutely worth the kickass metaphor we have today. it's probably my favorite reference to hear in All Music
Galatea was an ancient waifu, just made of stone and not... pixels? ink? whatever.
Greek heroes be like, "man, this IMPOSSIBLE QUEST that will probably get me KILLED is a stellar opportunity for me to prove myself even though I have no apparent need to actually do so!"
and kings with the intention of killing our Young Greek Paragons of Chivalry be like, "What if instead of DISCRETELY KILLING the Young Greek Paragon of Chivalry, I send him on a Dramatic Quest In Which He Will Probably Die?"
Greeks really loved giving their heroes the hubris flaw.
Hades was a mild mannered fellow who named his three-headed dog spot and also had a pretty darn good relationship with his wife, who took leave for a couple months every year to make sure earth still got spring. and he TRUSTED her and just. let her go. like, that's the healthiest relationship I've ever heard coming from ancient Greece.
on the flip side, Zeus was an asshole who couldn't keep it in his pants.
Artemis was PROBABLY demiromantic asexual, which sucks a little for me just bc I think she's pretty hot... then again, dating the gods have never been a good idea anyway
beauty and the Beast might be a loose retelling of the myth of psyche and eros?? maybe?? idk, but I sorta see some parallels
Meleager was pretty darn awesome
Sisiphus' wife puts up with a lot of shit and deserves way more than she got.
there's more, but it's 2:30 in the morning and I'm about to DIE
Also this was inspired by watching several Overly Sarcastic Productions

Youre back! *he couldn't believe it... she had come back! He wasn't alone....*
