Going back to Zag's romantic relationships from Mel is extremely hilarious to me because of how comparatively well-adjusted he was.
Sure he done fucked up with Meg in the past and they had to kill each other as part of the job description, his sudden leaving seriously hurt Than while also having communication issues w/ each other, and there's the matter of Dusa being a lowly servant of the House. But in the end, he sorted everything out with 0 grievances from all parties involved (that one dialogue where Than admits Meg is the one who tells him to finally pursue Zag seriously warms my heart). Got the Mom(s) Seal of Approval™ even, and from Achilles too!
Meanwhile I look at Melinoë and she has a frankly criminal amount of situationships. Her rizz level is insane and she goes straight for the throat when flirting yet somehow her dating life is simultaneously a mess and nonexistent. Nemesis regularly kicks her into the dirt verbally AND physically but is the only person to acknowledge how fucked up it is that Mel is sent out alone in the hopes of killing an all powerful Titan that took SIX gods to kill in the past. "Fuck you and fuck your stupid frog in particular" then turns around and gives free Death Defiances. Her and Moros try to flirt with each other but they kept missing the mark because sometimes one of them says something totally unhinged like it was normal (I don't think watching people die is an appropriate bathtime conversation topic, my man). Her and Eris are a hot mess—literally with all those rounds she shot at Mel AND without a basis of workplace professionalism. Icarus is one shot nerve away from accidentally proclaiming his undying (literally) love to her but his guilt complex is hanging on to that nerve. And then there's Arachne and her not so little crush warring with the fact that said crush is family with and is helping the gods who cursed her.
Never have I realized how important it is that Zag has become a minor god of relationship counselling until I look at his baby sister and think, "yeah girl you definitely need help for all that shit".
MEL BE LIKE "IF THE FATES WANTED THIS HOT WHITE-HAIRED TALL MAN TO STAY IN MY ABODE WHO ARE WE TO FIGHT IT ¯_(ツ)_/¯ " AND HER MOTHER LITERALLY DID GO 'WHO INDEED 🙄" OH MY LORD, THIS A TRUE DEPICTION OF MOTHER/DAUGHTER RELATIONSHIP 😂
Melinoe asked Moros how he'd describe her as a person (it makes sense in context, basically he told her the Fates gave the most barebones description of her, and she asked how he'd done it) and he responds like this. Baby, you are so down horrendous.
Joking aside, he admires her so much it's cute. His first real friend and first person to ever give him nectar and hang out with him and such. Also he's down horrendous
One of Ireland’s most beautiful and pristine bays is on the Rosguill Peninsula – Boyeeghter Bay. At high tide you will find two sandy beaches, which grow together to one big beach when the tide is out. The roaring Atlantic Ocean has gnawed bizarre cuts and a cave into the cliff faces along the bay. The wild waters may also be responsible for the bay’s nickname – ‘The Murder Hole’.
The beach may…
little funny art idea in my head of megzagthan getting along swimmingly being all romantic and giggly captioned "love wins" vs. mel and nemesis fighting while moros is in the background trying and failing to defuse the situation captioned "love loses"
Nyx, upon waking up after being in Time Jail for several centuries, seeing the Princess of the Underworld - whom she saw last as an infant, now grown - getting into romantic situationships with two of her most chaotic daughters and also her very isolationist works with the Fates son, whom she hasn't seen in centuries probably:

The Atlantic Drive in North Donegal is a well-known driving route on the Wild Atlantic Way, snaking along the coast from Downings towards Carrigart. The beautiful Trá na Rossan Bay is one of the most recognizable and photographed places in the county, and even locals never tire of the ever changing view. There is however a real treasure trove of fantastic scenery and history a little bit further…
