Out of all of the stages of his life, post-kidnapping-Ares looks the most like his child self despite being significantly older, sharing the same wild, long hair. Once he reached his teenage years, he cut his hair and kept it that way until his imprisonment forced him to grow out his hair.
He really did have a restart.


One can probably guess what I'm doing right now.

I'd like to know where you got the idea to add the tattoos from?
Yes, they were present, but the sources I can find are far and few in-between with contradicting ideas.
Any links I could look into it with?
I based them on how Thracian and Scythian women were depicted in vases, as well as Herodotus, a Greek historian and geographer at the time, stated that for Thracians "To be tattooed is a sign of noble birth; to bear no such marks is for the baser sort." You can find the excerpt here.

Hello! Just saw your ar about Ares wearing a yellow flower and I wantes to ask: What is the lore behind him associating yellow with Harmonia?
(Btw I love your art so much, very invested in the comix xD)
Her design's color palette mainly consists of yellows, oranges, and golds, as I thought it was fitting for a goddess of concord. Also, DFP Ares took the hobby of putting flowers in her hair, waiting for someone to take notice afterwards.

I'm putting on my big boy pants and puffing up my chest for this one. Recently, I've become shy about OCs, after so long of working on the Greek gods— especially about OCs whom I shipped with canon characters. Despite still being incredibly fond towards her and her relationship, my anxious and self-conscious side fears I am cringe— but to be cringe, is to be free, and I like the wind blowing in my hair so…
She did change a significant amount, so for those who have known her previously in her Soul Eater days, it will be like reading about a new character, but she is the same in other ways.
Her name is Schneewittchen Dunst-DuBois, or Snow White, or just Snow. She was born in Germany, specifically the Black Forest region, which borders France. She was born to a French father and German mother, whose both surnames she took as they died when she was too young to remember either of them and feels like it is only fair to keep them both, and she also sees no point in only keeping one anyway.
Snow works at the front office of the DWMA, along with Auntie, focusing on confirming and assigning missions. She started in her 20s, when she was much more shy and less self-confident, but as time would go on, she would become more talkative and confident. Working with Auntie contributed to this change, I would say. She strictly follows the rules and is very punctual, always arriving on time rather than being late. She becomes anxious at the thought of breaking the rules.
Similar to the character she shares names with, she treats others with kindness and understanding, refusing to be judgemental towards them.
Although not a weapon or a meister, she still comes with something to bring to the table; the ability to make people see whatever she wants them to see, and she knows how to use this ability well and creatively. This ability is not actually within her, but comes from the small mirror brooch she often wears. Without it, she cannot do anything. She describes the mirror as something stolen from something much bigger but was destroyed— and more similar to Death's mirror rather than anything else. In her early 20s, she would be too anxious to use it on others, but as time progressed, she became more willing to use it to prank others or to get back at people— and isn't afraid to get brutal with it.
She has a rather close relationship with the Death Scythe, Tezca Tlipoca. In the beginning, she was more jealous of him, as their powers were similar, but he had significantly more to bring. She kept her jealousy hidden by keeping herself quieter than usual, but his chatterbox and friendly personality wouldn't let her be, and eventually, she caved in and abandoned her envy. Over time, she opened up a bit more and was more comfortable sharing bits of her personality with him, mainly her joking and happy side.
Here's how I imagine how he'd be with dates;
Based off of this,

They do have differences between them that bring some conflict, For example, her being more punctual because of where she is from, meanwhile he is more lax when it comes to being on time. I headcanon he is very comfortable with arriving 15-20 minutes late. Snow learns how to deal with their differences and to not have a panic attack over it.
Snow is based on both instances of Snow White in fairytales; Snow White and The Seven Dwarves, as well as Snow White and Rose Red. Her relationship with Tezca is inspired by this also.
In Snow White and Rose Red, a bear the two girls meet and help ends up being a prince who was cursed to be a bear. In the end, when the prince returns back to normal, Snow White is the one who marries him. And of course, Tezca is known for his bear mask and first appears with the name ‘Mysterious Bear’.
And, magic mirrors are an important object in Snow White and The Seven Dwarves, giving the two characters something to relate to.

I was going to do this but I got shy.
Would you guys still think I am super cool if I posted about my Soul Eater OC, whom I shipped with Tezca Tlipoca?

i’m not great at being articulate so i hope this makes sense but there’s something so healing about your depictions of artemis/bendis with thracian tattoos. i see her and i see myself and my great grandmother and her great grandmother before her. im planning on getting a variation of thracian tattoos to honor my ancestors and the only references i’ve been able to find are vases but you’ve brought them to life and i’m sitting here crying. i literally sent a screenshot to my best friend like “it’s me! shes me!” and i just oh my god thank you i love you 🥹
I feel very honored to have brought such an emotion! I'd love to see the tattoos you get if you ever plan on showing them!
I was trying to come up with a sketch including Artemis to add to this, so here is a young Artemis discussing her tattoo plans with Ares. He was said to have been born and possibly raised in Thrace.

Desire For Peace Webcomic
The good critters of Instagram gave me a bunch of drawing prompts for Ares and Aphrodite. So here is Aphrodite with baby Eros trying to put on a helmet based on a statue of them.

If I had a child like Hermes, I would've been STRESSED - I can oly imagine how poor Shy Maia felt
I like to imagine Maia with the personality of Moominmamma from The Moomins because I feel like that's the only way one could survive raising him, to just be pleased by the strangest things (for example, like when a tree was growing inside of Moominhouse and all Moominmamma had to say was "that's nice").
DFP Maia would find the positive side in having Hermes around and just find Hermes' insane behavior to be him learning and expressing himself. This would probably why Hermes was so excited to see what his son Pan looked like because he inherited Maia's view on things.

Angelia, the daimona of messages, tidings, and proclamations is mentioned to be a daughter of Hermes. I like to imagine her as a little parrot child, always repeating what she has heard others say— and when she was even younger and first learning how to talk, she would try to mimic others in little babbles. It's cute, but it also comes with a consequence if you aren't careful with your words around her.
Fortunately, Peitho does understand that children are sponges, especially after having helped Aphrodite raise her children. Hermes will probably take her general nervousness of his panic as her not taking it well though.

Reminder that the Spanish Steps are in Death City.
After he became the new Pope, he flew over to Italy and took them to put in Death City.

Wow, they elected the first pope from the united states? thats crazy, even changed up the colours of the garments to better reflect the national beverage of coca cola

Very important.
It is now canon in Desire for Peace that both Hermes and Peitho can wiggle their ears, and when Hermes found out that Peitho can wiggle her ears too, that's the exact moment his crush on her started.

I had to draw Okeanos for MerMay. It was a must. Including baby Peitho as a bonus.
There isn't much I could say about DFP Okeanos so far since I am still thinking about him, that he's quiet and doesn't like big situations, is very good with kids and loves playing with them, and doesn't like Zeus too much.

Working on the comic while also struggling with anti-socialness, so here is a delightful looking Ares.
