#poseidon is pretty

[kdpartworks]

question...

WHY ARE PEOPLE SHIPPING THEIR POSEIDON DESIGNS WITH OTHER POSEIDON DESIGNS?! IT'S LIKE WILLIAM AND GLITCHTRAP ALL OVER AGAIN! 😭😭

I hope this answers to your very valid question, friend.

Has been a while since i last used professor puppet. I suddenly feel so nostagic </3

The poseidons are Jellyseidon (mine) and @neal-illustrator Poseidon!

Also sorry for the typo, i forgot the "IS" in the last speech bubble, bohoo, grammar jail for me

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

Demigods being called by their parent's Epithets

For some, like Jason who is named Ivppiter Tonans (Thundering Jove) by 'allies' and enemies alike, both in reverence and in horror and Annabeth who is titled Makhanitis (Deviser, Contriver) for her plans, it is an honour.

For others, like Luke who is praised with 'Promakhos' (the Champion) and Eriounês (Luck-bringing) by his 'comrades' and hears 'Klepsiphrôn' (Deceiver, Dissembler*) and Phêlêtês (Thief, Robber) hissed bitterly by 'enemies', it is a bitter, annoying thing that he cant quite seem to get rid of.

For Nico who hears Aidôneus* (Unseen one) hissed by monsters right before he steps out of the shadows unseen and strikes them down and Percy who is called Ennosigaios (earth-shaker) in pure dread by monsters after his feat at Mount Saint Helens was spread around.

...

It is a reminder of their strength and power (derogatory). It is not a positive thing.

*Dissembler — someone who hides their real feelings, intentions or true facts :)

*technically not a epithet but an alternate name but shhh. There arent many titles I could find of Hades.

one of the reasons why i love ToA so much is the little bits and pieces of the gods we get to see.

so i guess this is really more of a 'this is why i love the gods so much' rather than my usual 'this is why i love ToA' post lmao

but fr, the gods are just sooooo much more fleshed out in ToA. they're more complex, and have these layers to them that pjo and hoo just Did Not convey (and really, only conveyed those things post publication of ToA, which came with the tools on how to decode the gods and read between the lines).

and i'm not even talking about Apollo here. he is by far the most fleshed out god we have because he's the pov character, but i also mean all 12 of the other olympians - they're just so juicy!!

like okay, sure, in pjo and hoo we get glimpses that Dionysus may care more than he lets on, but ToA CONFIRMS this, but not in an 'in your face' way - but in the 'Dionysus picks at Apollo like a little brother would' way, and in that FIRST interaction between Apollo and Dionysus, we can SEE what their relationship was like!!

Hermes is another VERY layered god, ESPECIALLY with pjo's context. but that context ONLY gains its own importance BECAUSE of the story ToA gives us - we would NOT have 'resigned to fate' Hermes without it. or embittered at his favorite brother Hermes. we love this Hermes eheheheheheheh

Artemis also gains more character, and is no longer just the stoic cool badass #Girlboss she's largely presented as - she's scared, she fears for Apollo, so much so she SPLITS. she comes RUNNING to help him in TTT as soon as she could, giving her a softer side, while simultaneously expands on her previous appearances and allowing us to see how she is unconsciously enabling the abuse Apollo's experienced. LAYERS !! !! !!

DEMETER. OOOHHH DEMETER ILY, IN MYTHOLOGY AND THE RRVERSE. BUT FOR COMPLETELY DIFFERENT REASONS LMAO

we can infer Demeter has basically shot herself in the foot by obsessing so much over Persephone, where she NEGLETS her other kids (ex: Lityerses, Meg). myth Demeter would NEVER but rrverse Demeter is still a fav BECAUSE of how flawed she is.

ARESSSSS do i even need to say anything. we KNOW Ares and Apollo are bros because of how often Apollo takes pot-shots at him in his dialogue LMAO true brother behavior

Hades is a chill uncle with Apollo in particular. i mean. *gestures* he used to purposefully mess up Apollo's aim when shooting for no reason. need i say more?

looking back i'm also a little intrigued by how little Poseidon was mentioned - perhaps lending credence to the idea that he and Apollo grew apart over the centuries?

also Hestia's position as the goddess of the hearth and home calls into question how passive she is on olympus BECAUSE of the shitshow it's become!! she defends it!! what has caused the hearth and home, the FIRSTBORN OF KRONOS, of the ENTIRE PANTHEON to be so stagnant in the face of this toxic cycle? the people want to know and so do i.

Hephaestus is trickier to pin down for me because he has little mention, but there's one SPECIFIC one that has stuck in my brain and its the "apollo missed an entire decade watching Hephaestus's newton's cradle INSIDE HIS OFFICE"

what was apollo doing in his office. and why did hephaestus - notorious introvert - let him stay in there. these are the questions we are all dying to know.

ATHENAAAAAAA !! !! !! !! !! that nod she gives apollo at the end. her bet on his SUCCESS. need i say more? she's bros with him trust <3 add in the mythology and it gets SPICY

Aphrodite is arguably a tricky one to pin down too, and honestly we as a fandom have probably taken more from the mythos to pin down her character than with the others, but she's sooooo interesting too!! the eldest olympian. powerful goddess. extremely cunning and ruthless. and yet she's seen as airheaded and vain by practically everyone.

makes you wonder who else is like that. *quick glance at our favorite god* i dunno who that could be. *whistles innocently*

and do i need to say anything about Zeus? about the tragedy of him falling into the cycle he was meant to break? ABOUT THE TRAGEDY OF HOW HE DEF WANTED TO BE A FATHER BUT HIS PARANOIA GOT THE BETTER OF HIM UNTIL HE NO LONGER WAS ONE??

*seizes you by the shoulders* HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE NORMAL ABOUT THIS. HOW.

and ofc. one of my FAVORITE gods...Hera. oh, ho ho Hera. you do NOT deserve the hate you get <3 okay maybe a bit of irritation is warranted because you do pull off risky things in hoo but we stan a goddess who takes charge in this house.

YOU CAN'T CONVINCE ME SHE'S GONNA BE - well, nicer? is that the right word? - BETTER WITH APOLLO POST-TOA. AFTER SEEING EVERYTHING HE SUFFERED? AFTER SEEING HIM SHED THE MASK? AFTER JASON GRACE?

*pounds mercilessly on the table* I WILL NEVER NOT BE ANNOYING ABOUT THEM I LOVE THEM ALL INCLUDING THE BITS OF CHARACTER FROM THE MINOR GODS WE GET TOO!!

[anniflamma]

So @gotstabbedbyapen bribed me with a drawing of David/Jonathan. So you guys can finaly see Poseidon pull Hermes hair. Though...

I can say only one thing.... I peaked with Odysseus/Poseidon hair pull drawing. Im not sure with this one. Poseidon got censored. No Boobseidon here.

[messymoonmad]

Can we get a better look at Poseidon's teeth? They look neat.

Careful he bites !!

Yes his teeth glows in the dark.

So when he gets angry (it gets dark cause it gets stormy) his teeth look fluorescent

A devastating and confusing thing about the Fallout setting, when you explore the pre-war aspects, is what the creators think about pre-war America. In the first games we only get hints of the pre-war world, but they seem to be some sort of wild fascist nation invading Canada. In Fallout 1, the first thing we're introduced to of the pre-war society is seeing a soldier shoot civilians and laughing.

Now, for the first 2 games and New Vegas we don't really know much. What we know is that there's a fascist military group known as the enclave who were a sort of US deep state even before the war, and that the government teamed up with corporate interests to preform vaguely MKULTRA-ish experiments with the Vaults. Basically, the government was an extreme version of the 50s American jingoism and McCarthyism.

This is well and dandy, I guess issues come up more when we get to the later games, especially 4, where it seems like none of this extreme plotting and societal civil unrest which would exist is seen. The society as presented in 4 also seems quite progressive, gay people are featured in the opening, and none of the baggage of say, civil rights not existing are included. Now on a baseline, I don't want settings to be more conservative, homophobic and sexist etc., but it becomes a very confusing setting when it's displayed both as this jingoist extreme thing with fascist tendencies aswell as a progressive place where everyone is seemingly equal. If you're focusing on the 50s as your setting, and American nationalism in the 50s, then you can't have McCarthyism spoofs and anti-communism as a societal paranoia norm while also general equality is the norm without misunderstanding why McCarthyism and nationalist jingoism is bad. A massive harm done in anti-communist paranoia is how it degrades and vilifies any progressive movements (women's rights, civil rights, homosexuality) as being morally un-American and therefore connected to communism. To ignore this just makes any critique of MacCarthyism and jingoism weird!

Basically, pre-war America in Fallout 4 becomes this both sides thing where America is both pure and equal and white fences in every instance that we see as the player (the intro), while also supposedly being this dystopic MacCarthyist hellscape that's broadcasting gladly about their war crimes in Canada, and wants to root out communism. I guess the only fix for this issue without getting into the fine print like they had to do is just not to focus too much on the pre-war world.

[literallyjusttoa]

I've had designs for all the other Olympian gods since forever, but I always get distracted or frustrated and can never finish drawing all of them as a group. Today I decided to just sketch em out and not focus too hard on the details, and I finally did all of them in one go! Except for Apollo but like, I'm sure y'all know what my Apollo desgin looks like at this point lol.

A redraw of the "You're stupid. I like that in a man" meme featuring @messymoonmad Poseidon & my Medusa.

It's still hilarious to me that despite Poseidon's repution for ruthlessness & terrifying temper this horny dumbass willingly showed up at the Gorgon sisters lair because he wanted to smash Medusa. Like dude really? The Gorgon sisters are known predators! They turned so many victims into stone they reuse them as furniture! I mean sure in the dark Poseidon isn't going to realize the snake woman he's hooking up with goes to sleep in a bed using 4 of her victims like stone bed posts. Still that is going to be a hell of a wake up the next morning, seeing those same 4 faces frozen in terror staring down at u.
