Ok ok so the Typhon story has Hera going complaining to her daddy about her stupid brother husband? Well that seems honestly understandable

After all "godly problems require godly solutions"

Plus it's kinda cute Kronos listened to his daughter's problem and helped her,even though it wasn't actually the best way to help.........

YEAHHHH

ok so i have a lot of hc’s about this incident because in my theogony re-write i chose to keep the orphic tradition in for Typhon’s origin story, but yeah:

so i think when Hera goes to Kronos, and Kronos gives her advice, he’s really not trying to become a good dad or anything. he’s just manipulating her

also, this is sort of the first time Hera and Kronos have ever really interacted properly, and the thing that strikes Kronos the most is how similar she is to him- like her mind is devious and cunning just like him. she is ruthless. from all Kronos’ kids, i think Hera is the most like him.

BUT. Hera also has Rhea’s heart. and Kronos concludes that this is will be Hera’s downfall.. she’ll never be free from Zeus because her heart is too big and too forgiving, like Rhea (Rhea might not love Kronos, but i like the idea that she does forgive him. switch the roles, and i don’t think Kronos would have ever forgiven Rhea, they’re just different characters)

so Kronos gives Hera advice mainly because any enemy of Zeus is Kronos’ ally, and he likes the idea of Zeus being defeated by his own wife, like Kronos got his ass beat by Rhea (we love parallels).

also, since Kronos isn’t in power anymore, i like the idea that he becomes sort of less evil. he still despises all his kids because he sees how awful the world became under Zeus, but now that he’s not king, he’s not responsible for caring for the world anymore- and SO, i think he does feel a bit sad for Hera.

mostly he is just using her for personal gain, but i think in his heart, he knows Hera won’t defeat Zeus, and there’s a tinge of fatherhood deep deep down that he’ll never acknowledge or address :))

anywyas. sorry for the rant aha i am passionate about the typhon-kronos-hera myth.

“Sides. Ain’t you’re just yanking my leg anywyas. We know in the center of our damn hearts it’s a hell of a lot worse then that.”
