Greek Mythology in a nutshell

Zeus: Look at this poor, malnourished girl. Locked up by her own father.

Zeus: You know what she needs? To be poor, malnourished and pregnant!

hera’s son

[princessofghosts-posts]

He did turn her into a tree to save her,but he was never present in her life. I was referring more to the fact that while Poseidon tries to be there with Percy in some occasions,and Hades and Nico live together,Zeus was never physically there for Thalia.

Yes,he was fighting Typhon at the time,but that isn't the focus of the post. Is more about the fact that Thalia realized the different approach Hades and Poseidon have. They are all shitty parents,but at least those two tried to be better with their children after said children made them realize that. Where is Zeus at in this equation??? He could have more leverage after the war,since Percy made them swear to be better parents,but he was barely there even after that.

Thalia watched how Nico got his whole divine family,including the step-mom that should hate him (like Hera's treatment towards her because of the cheating) and grand-mother (like what???),to the battle ; and then got to know how Percy convinced Poseidon to help the Gods fighting Typhoon,even with his kindgom and people in danger,knowing full well that Zeus will never do that for her.

Percy and Nico got their dads (and family) to fight for and with them,because even if they are sometimes shitty,they still care enough for their children to actually help them and being involved in their life. The only thing Zeus did for her was turning her into a tree (not even his own tree,because Pines are Poesidon's and not Zeus's) for a couple of years,to prevent her from dying.

Even her brother had the opportunity to fight with their dad in BoO,something that Thalia herself never had. And she probably feels bitter about it,because Poseidon and Hades care for their children,even after the oath was broken,but her dad was never there for her and barely did anything to help her.

(OG Little Three trio angst,yes-)

“ Hermes is a momma’s boy !! ” ??

Babe, where??? In what hymn?? In what plane of delusion??

Touch some epithets.

Maia raised him for five minutes and then he immediately sprinted into the world to make sure Daddy Zeus noticed him.

Did we read Hymn 4 to Hermes? Because he basically looks at Zeus like ‘‘Dad. Daddy. Pater. Father. Pops. Look what I made. A lyre. And a crime!’’ and Zeus goes ‘‘aw you little shit’’ and immediately adopts him into the pantheon like it’s Bring Your Son to Work Day. And suddenly Hermes has a job, a house, and immunity from prosecution.

HE IS A DADDY’S BOY.

He’s the blueprint for daddy’s boys.

He is the president of the Daddy’s Boy Club.

He straight-up looked Zeus in the eye and said: ‘‘Hey, I made music, lied, stole, and got away with it all before my first tooth came in. Can I be your errand boy?’’ And Zeus is eating it up. Giggling. Encouraging. Enabling. Like that’s my boy.

Meanwhile Maia’s just in that cave like, ‘‘Do I get anything out of this??’’ and Hermes is halfway to the Underworld already.

Put some respect on his winged sandals.

Hmmm i think she doesn't like her husband🤔 just a little bit

[shrine-of-the-theoi]

No cuz they're literally everywhere in every little thing and i love them🧿🥀. It's so refreshing

Something about being able to find Gods in every little thing, every day.

Lord Apollon in the music that plays, either by your playing, or randomly hearing it, King Zeus in the stormy weather that makes the perfect atmosphere for hot chocolate, Lady Hestia in the toast and tea made for breakfast when your whole family is sleepy, Lady Aphrodite in the love for your hobbies and passions, Lord Hephaestus in everything you decide to repair or repurpose instead of throwing away...

There's so much, and I absolutely adore every bit of it!
