The fact that Python is Apollo's greatest enemy and snake is Asclepius' sacred animal will always be funny

Apollo/Lester would absolutely cup faces of his children/his loved ones into his so warm hands and kiss them in the forehead.
And Meg. She is his honorary little sister.
(Oh, and he would cup the ash that was left of Asclepius, his beautiful son with kind hands; and I am so sorry I didn't save you, I tried—, and put it near his heart, shaking in grief and despair).
(And Hyacinthus while he was bleeding out. Apollo would cup his face into his trembling hands that were stained with blood, weeping and murmuring over and over and his love would be fine - you will live— - and that everything is going to be okay.
And Apollo kissed him on the forehead, ignoring his love's glassy eyes.)

Hiiiii
Do you have a design for Asclepius by any chance?
Love your art btw, you have one of the most creative designs for Greek gods I've ever seen 🩵
had to look up who he was, I wasn't familiar with him. But now that I am, here's the design
Tumblr media
tried giving him a very friendly and chill aura. Like, you'll look at him and know everything's going to be ok. So he has round shapes, curves and a cute appearance to reflect on that.
his color palette is what I always had in my mind when I thought of the word medicine. So pastel, pale tones and fluorescent teal. Very reminiscent of hospital colors now that I think about it. Though I think he looks a little too pale here, so I might change some of the hues later.
In general I really liked how his design turned out. He looks very graceful, the pose flows really nicely (the snake helps a lot) and I'd trust my life to this man.

Deities for Disabled Worshippers
If you’re disabled, chronically ill, or mentally ill, Lord Hephaestus is (of course) a great deity to build a relationship with. Still, many Gods can be worthwhile to reach out to for many things related to disability. Hermes- Can assist with communication with medical providers, payment for medical bills and medication, safe traveling (especially for those of us who use mobility aids!), fertility treatment or reproductive care, finding lost items due to brain fog, and especially for terminally ill people and those of us with life expectancy-limiting conditions: navigating into and through the afterlife. Apollo- Assisting with healing and recovery, mental health therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, treatments, medication, using art and music as a coping skill, and getting adequate and safe exposure to sunlight. Asclepius- Following treatments and therapies, taking medication, help accessing medical care, safe surgeries, researching medical conditions, etc. Asclepius is the son of Apollo and he represents the healing aspect of the medical arts; he was married to Epione (ηπιος, "soothing") she personified the care needed for recovery. His daughters, the "Asclepiades", are: Hygieia ("Health, Healthiness"), Iaso (from ἴασις "healing, recovering, recuperation", the goddess of recuperation from illness), Aceso (from ἄκεσις "healing", the goddess of the healing process), Aegle ("brightness," or "splendor” the goddess of good health) and Panacea (the goddess of universal remedy). His sons, Machaon and Podalirius were highly skilled surgeons and medics during the Trojan war, and his son Telesphorus "the accomplisher" or "bringer of completion" was a little person, and in some myths, a child and minor God of healing from illness, particularly for children who frequently accompanied Hygieia. Many of these related deities might be more helpful for navigating specific circumstances! Psyche- Goddess of the soul, can assist with overall wellness Hypnos- Sleep and relaxation, insomnia and painsomnia, following good sleep hygiene, addressing nightmares and night terrors Hestia- Being homebound, creating a safe environment at home, accessibility within the home Dionysus- For matters concerning mental health, mad pride, celebration, intoxication, using substances to manage symptoms Thanatos- Beneficial for those of us with life-limiting and terminal conditions, death positivity, navigating suicidal ideation, transitioning into end-of-life and hospice care, writing advanced directives Hades- Particularly helpful for those of us with life-limiting and terminal conditions, death positivity, navigating suicidal ideation, transitioning into end-of-life and hospice care, writing advanced directives This is a non-exhaustive list, I personally feel that your relationship with any deity and your experiences of disability can be intertwined in endless ways! Feel free to add others in the replies!

Classicstober: 10. Asklepios
(It's totally fine and normal to show up over a week late to a challenge)
I really wanted to do this challenge, but my attention has been so scattered by work and family lately that I tried to think of a low commitment version that would teach me something and still brighten up my sketchbook a little. I was thinking about how I used to get a lot of doodles in during art history and archaeology classes back in the day, so I'm trying to return to that with some dollar store pen and highlighter. :) I'm not sure if the entire series will look like this or if I'll just use whatever I have on hand, we will see.

There's a myth in which Asclepius gains his superior medical knowledge from a snake that licked his ear in his sleep.
