legend has it that the young witch circe and the once beautiful nymph scylla shared a complicated past...

#art #cirscylla #that's the ship name i like for them best anyway #circe #scylla #greek mythology #welcome to my greek mythos yuri #DOOMED YURI #circylla #epic the musical #do i even tag it as that? i think i should cuz epic is the reason im so into greek mythos #jorge said we might get a spinoff about their backstory and im insane over that #i know it's probably going to be about how circe loved that one guy but still a girl can dream #this is them but younger! before circe turns scylla into the horrific man-eating monster that even poseiden fears #there's just so much potential here #consider a younger and much warier circe landing on the island for the first time after being outcasted by her family for her magic #and she meets scylla there who back then is a much happier and playful person #enemies to lovers to enemies again #i don't know if they ever make it to lovers or if they were only an almost #they're about to have the worst breakup in greek history #im rambling in tags MY BAD

Actually we should say that Cassandra screams outside of language. The scream is to gash the fabric of normal life, to rend it into strange tatters. Then it is open to prophecy. Then Cassandra lives in her own future.

Selby Wynn Schwartz, After Sappho

the sphinxes were so fun i had to draw them again!! i'm floating the names Summer and Chaka... i don't think they're very good at this whole riddle thing. Summer doesn't give a flying fuck who does or doesn't pass by them, and Chaka has stage fright :(

#yes they ARE named after donna summer and chaka khan #art #sketch #orig #classical mythology #greek mythology #sphinx #monster girl #character design #memes

I saw this and immediately thought of Dionysus. The girl on the left is Ariadne and the girl on the right is Apollo or Hermes minding their own gd business.

#Ariadne as there are “excuse me that's my husband” vibes. and the girl on the right is Hermes or Apollo for funsies #PINE TREE TOO!!! (It's technically a Christmas tree and probably an evergreen but shhhhh) That's Dionysus' thing! PINE CONE GOD #I have not been given the gifts to draw because this is the type of stuff I would be drawing #it's girl on the left's LOOK that made this so wonderful to me #I know being naked was fine in ancient greece but this is so funny to me.#ariadne #greek mythology #greek myth #mythology #dionysus #apollo #hermes #dionysus x ariadne #THEY NEED A SHIP NAME #tagamemnon

What’s a word you mispronounced for so long because you’d only seen it written and never heard it said

#my Greek brain has been misprouncing so many words over the years #like first I though the bi in ‘bisexual’ and in ‘non binary’ was pronounced bee #and don’t start the names cause why would Hyacinthus be pronounced ‘high-a-sign-thus’???#I have so many more that I can’t remember right now #languages #language #English #words #fandoms #cause I know fan girls have the best stories with fantasy names we mispronounced #I JUST REMEMBERED I PROUNCED JUSTICE AS JUST-ICE

So their is so sO SO much wrong with the Lightning thief movie But I think my two favorite things that don't make sense are

1) apparently Percy's name is just 'Percy' because he needed help to name a third demigod and he had to look at the Greek to get the name 'Perseus'

2) for some reason their are Thirteen thrones on Olympus. It's goes (right to left) Dionysus, Hephaestus, Hera (a decision to put her here of all places), Hermes, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Zeus (at the head), Athena, Ares, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis, EMPTY THRONE! Why 13? For Hestia? But she doesn't have a throne she gave it up. For Hades? He also doesn't have one on Olympus!

#plus they really tell us everything. their is no showing. its all spelled out! we get shown Percy's dyslexia then hes gotta tell us #he has dyslexia and adhd. we get told the name and description of every god or monster as that shows up #damn have they never heard of show dont tell? and then they show moments and five seconds later they tell us what they JUST showed #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson #percy jackson and the lightning thief #the lightning theif #the lightning theif movie #percy jackson movies #then grover is just casually insulting the gods? like they wouldn't just strike him down.#grover #olympus #rick riordan #like we know they didnt read the book but did they even google greek mythology?#archery is just five feet from the Infermery over a walking path? thats nor dangerous at all 🙄 making more work for the poor apollo kids #apparently Aphrodite only has girls and ares only has boys..... for some reason?#no claiming! they just show up and they know whos kid they are? why is luke so pissed then? thats like half of lukes deal is unclaimed kids #Persephone is still in the underworld even though its near the summer solstice and she leaves the underworld in spring #they just mushed Clarisse with Annabeth like 'Annabeth` faught him at the river even though Clarisse did that #i could go on and on and on and on but you get the point

Gaia promising Hebe as a wife to Porphyrion (you know, the giant who tried to rape her mom) is not something I'd expect to read but here we are

#not just hebe she also promised the other giants athena and aphrodite and artemis to be their wives... gaia what the hell #hera's “friendship” or collab with gaia prolly ended here #imagine her finding out her grandmother almost gave her daughter to her assaulter... someone needs to make a fic #hera #gaia #hebe #greek mythology #i need hera's righteous anger #just imagine the angst potential. you've just got out of a war after your most hated stepson shot your assaulter #you find out moments later that the person responsible used your stepdaughters as bait for those fools. whatever. you don't care #it is not until you hear your attacker (ugly unlovable creature) speak angrily in his dying breath #saying he demands the bride his mother promised #hebe he says #your beloved daughter's name on his disgusting lips #you take a step back before stabbing him once. just for extra measure #your heart pounds. it beats so loud with anger that you can't hear anything else #this giant just tried to rape you. and yet your mind is on your little girl #the little girl you just wanted the best for- a pawn in your grandmother's game #you cannot kill the earth itself. you know that your position can only get you so far #but you scream her name anyways.#gaia heeds your call. the inviting smile you used to don on her is gone #all that's left is RAGE

Decided to change Terra's full name. Anyway, here's the triplets' full names!

Becca- Rebecca Ila Klein-Archer

Ella- Eleanor Haniah Klein-Archer

Terra- Tiresias Morowai Klein-Archer

#Treasure Triplets #writeblr #wip #the girls start using the hyphened last name when Abbot did #the deal was that the first kid had a middle name taken from one of Zhair's sisters and the third got a name from Greek myth bc Zhair wante #to honor his birth dad even if his relationship with Hermes' was complicated

Zeus: Hera did you kill Lamia’s children?!

Hera:

#some say she kidnapped them which is funny bc after that their fate is unknown #one child became an oracle #it’s so funny to me and idk how to explain why #at the gym I used to go to there was a North African girl named Lamia #I don’t remember if she’s Libyan but it would be so funny if she was #greek mythology #ancient greek mythology #greek pantheon #hera #greek goddess #hera goddess #hera deity #hera greek mythology #zeus #hera x zeus #lamia

Am I a daughter of Delta Nu? No.

Soon to be a fiancée?? Definitely not.

Has a man chosen me? Nope.

Can my life begin today? Absolutely! (If I put my mind to it)

Make a happy home? I can sure try!

Not waste hard earned wage? Well, my 0 hours contract job don't put me in very often and I'm literally only on for 2&½ hours next week so :/ I don't like spending big amounts of money, that shit is scary. My dad's bank account is safe :)

Strive not to look my age? I already look like a 12 year old with my hair tied up, I think I'm fine.

Okay I made this to represent a specific event but then I thought about it and realized that more generally soeaking this actually sums the exact dynamic I have with my fourth grade girls.

#like you guys don’t understand this is LITERALLY me and my girls #like. the example this was originally made to represent. I road the bus with [name redacted for privacy reasons] who is the apple of my eye #my incredible little girl who I have known for a year who I just adore.#I was taking the bus with her and she saw there was a security camera and asked about it. and it was like a 30 minute bus ride we had time #and I often will teach her about things I’m interested in even if they’re like. advanced right #so I was like alright have you ever heard of a man named Foucault?#i took the next 15 minutes to explain to her about who Foucault was and his essay about the panopticon and what that meant #described was a panopticon was described why he was talking about it talked about how that applies to us now #about how the police state is increasingly harnessing more and more technology to create an era of surveillance hitherto unknown of #and how this helps enforce the status quo etc.#she listened intently. nodding along thoughtfully. she quietly thought about it longer.#the whole time. GLOWERING. which is her response to everything.#I’m like. it’s interesting right? trying to prompt her to say what she was thinking.#instead of responding she just turns to the security camera at the front of the bus and very carefully puts up her middle finger #and then mouths ‘fuck. you.’#I could not be prouder of her but this is also just how all our conversations go #no matter if it’s about tattoos or Ancient Greek tragedy or Taylor swift.

idk I have this theory that if you're born female with a relatively "normal name" you're going to be the most favored person in the room wherever you go

#this is gonna sound dumb but why is it that every popular girl at my school is named ashley or brinley or whatever #and I was born with a masculine name of catholic/greek descent and I had No friends growing up. but this girl ashley #was into all the same things as me yet she was so much better off #whatever this sounds stupid ignore me ☠️#my deadname is also popular in spanish and russian speaking countries so maybe it's that idk

Going Undercover:

Talia: Alright, you remember your assignments. We infiltrate the school as students, then we try to see what's actually happening.

Jacqui: We'll meet one another during a few subjects depending on our schedules to keep an eye on each other and to share info

Talia: Then we can-

Jess: UUGGGGH! We know! You reminded us like 120000 times now. Can we just get to the part where we pick our undercover names?

Laurel: Ooooh, yes please.

Jacqui: *sigh* Yeah, okay. But we'll go through the mission again later.

Laurel: Mmm, I wanna go with Samantha :)

Talia: That's just your middle name.

Laurel: I know :)

Gigi: Well, Gigi is already a nickname. And I don't really feel like going as Georgia so...Gabrielle sounds nice, so it wont be too much of a change and I'll still be able to use Gigi.

Klarienne: I'll just stick with Klarienne.

Jacqui: Same here. Or maybe Jacquelyn, or Kaley.

Laurel: Troy, Jess, how 'bout you?

Jess: I wanna go with Charlie Johnson, I'm a transfer student from another city after my parents planned to move to because of my dad's work but it turns out we moved because they're actually criminals on the run and-

Talia: We don't need to hear the whole story, Jess. Troy?

Troy: Mmm, well, Donald Troy's already a cover name. what are you gonna go with?

Talia: Birth name, Alexandria Alkane

Troy: Then, I'll just go with my birth name, too (headcanon). Paris.

Jess: Oh, like the city?

Troy: Oh, sure, NOW people think I'm named after a city (-_-)

Raven: Paris was a prince of Troy that fought in the Trojan War. He was the one who got to kill the Great Achilles who was said to be the greatest of the Greeks. It's why ironic why his name is Troy when he was raised by-

Laurel: UUUGH! Raven, leave the history lesson, we already have to deal with it while we're undercover.

Gigi, realizing something: Wait a minute. Isn't Paris the one that Helen ended up with?

Troy, realizing she realized: Well-

Raven: Technically, yes. But Paris died and she married his brother instead and it's a whole rollercoaster.

Klarienne: Doesn't Troy call you Helen sometimes?

Raven: Yeah, he does. What does that have to do with this?

Jacqui: ...Raven, I don't think you heard yourself right. You just said that Helen ended up with Paris

Raven: Yeah. And?

Talia, joining in: Raven, listen to me. Helen. Ended up. With Paris.

Raven: ...*blush*

Talia: Wow, you don't call him Helen because he's beautiful, you call him Helen because your birth name is Paris. Oh, Troy, you witty bastard.
