Yes, Greece still exists, we didn't all die 2000 years ago. Yes, people speak Greek. You people are so fucking stupid for real. So many of you claim to love ancient shit but can't even acknowledge the actual living culture of the people whose mythology and classics you romanticize. You keep leaving annoying comments about how you just forget Greek people still exist, thinking you're being quirky because you love ancient stuff soooo much that you forgot about the people it came from. You think about it so little you don't even realize that an actual Greek person has to read this shit, making it clear how little you actually care about the culture beyond the romanticized (and westernized) mythology. Don't claim you love Greece, don't use our mythology anymore if you can't acknowledge that we're still around without making it about how little you think about us. It's mind boggling that you'd think a Greek person would read this and think you're anything but obnoxious. Explode.
Im saying this not as an opinion but as a matter of fact that hades should have never been the default villain in modern greek myths retellings,becuz dionysus had been always a better fit by leagues & i feel like writers/artists both overlook & underestimate him.Like the fucker wasnt just a silly drunk god,his whole domain tethered on the thin line between ecstasy and madness,embodying both chaos & pleasure. All of these qualities historically had made him simultaneously adored & feared within & outside of his fanatical cult,& circling back to the madness part,idk if yk this but dionysus have this lil tale in wich he caused his followers to go drunk w/ frenzy at a party they literally ripped apart the son of hypnos, i repeat hes so powerful he made a buncha humans kill A GOD! & he didnt face any repercussions fr that!!!
Now ik im skipping on other infos but all of this sounds to me that dionysus is perfect fr the charming & sinister mastermind trope
literally so funny that the only thing anyone will ever remember about supernatual in like 10 years+ is the gay angel/hunter dynamic that the network didn't even want to make real. that's your legacy. you're the destiel show. that's all you'll ever be. outside your own little bubble, that's all anyone ever refers to you as. when people bring up supernatural, destiel is the only association they have. i don't know anyone who knows anything else about it. phenomenal.
I can't over the fact that in Greek mythology when Hermes stolen Apollo's cattle he was only ONE DAY OLD! Imagine a f*cking baby stealing over FIFTY COWS in first day on earth.
And gets even better when Apollo discovers this and takes little Hermes to trial on Olympus.
All gods are laughing at the fact the culprit is just a little baby and Apollo is like:
There exists the idea that Technoblade can switch from human form to pig form at will
Can you imagine the absolute fucking power play it would be if he stumbled upon Circe’s palace and she threatened to turn him into a pig only for him to just??? Do it himself???
Like, where do you even go from there? What’s the plan anymore?
Or he gets turned into a pig and then looks her dead in the eye as he transforms himself back
