Zeus - Blog Posts

I think on my list of flexes, the fact that I used to work with Luke Holt is up there in the top twenty

Zeus want a hug from his favorite babies u.u

Odysseus is "There are other way"-ing Zeus This is to everyone in that comment section!

There is a part 2 now...

Epic: The musical

All songs are perfect, I can't stop listening to them. Help.

The Horse and the Infant, Warrior of the Mind and Polyphemus are my favourite *chief kiss*

Also, what I like about Greek mythology, is that the whole story of the world happened because gods couldn't solve their problems in a mature way...

Please I'm begging anyone hit me up for a Record Of Ragnarok rp if anyone interested a double up and 18+ and detail.

Help

so I was talking to apollo and I was asking questions about stuff that I probs shouldn't have been asking, the as he was answering one of these questions a huge fucking earthquake started. I was with 2 friends and we've all had a pretty rough night with one of us throwing up. After the earthquake finished we got really anxious and decided to ask if it was our fault because the timing was way to convenient, and apollo said it was. I dunno what to do but I'm trying to making it up to the gods as best as I can at the moment with my small access to items I can offer (I'm a minor in an extremely christian family). Any suggestions?

When I saw Zeus and read her backstory this song immediately popped into my head. Probably better songs out there tho but idk

Will you make more drawings of the great white witch? 👉👈

Oh yah she has a halo btw

Just finished reading lore Olympus and…

I love Apollo… BUT THIS APOLLO SUCKS! LORE OLYMPUS APOLLO IS HORRIBLE!!!!! I HATE HIM SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH

Aries is just a pitbull scary but is just a baby… prove me wrong

Hades is a simp

Hera… I love Hera… she is hot

Aphrodite Is a amazing nice asshole

Hermes, I love him in every universe (so far)

Poseidon Is a adorable and is like a little puppy

Athena… they give me gender envy😭 they are what I wanna be when I grow up

Persephone is a sweet pea that should be protected but should also be terrified of 

Anyway lovely series and everything about it is just amazing (except Apollo)







Whilst Eurylochus isn't as faultless as my baby Polites, doesn't mean everything was his fault. Did he open the wind bag? Yes, yes, he did. Did that directly lead to poseidon killing of the crew? No, it didn't. Poseidon would have taken revenge on Odysseus and his crew either way, not just because they were pushed further away from Ithaca. As observed in the snippet of 'get in the water', we've seen that poseidon is more than capable of appearing anywhere in the ocean. Ergo, he was going to kill them all anyway, Eurylochus just spiced things up by changing the location they died. Furthermore, he wasn't wrong to mutiny against Odysseus, and realistically, he wasn't the one fully at fault for zeus and 'thunder bringer'. Now, I'm not saying he's faultless because most of the blame definitely falls onto him. What I am saying is that he was tired and hungry, and he'd given up. Think about it, he'd probably not eaten in days if he stopped off at the first island he came across and killed the sun God's cows. He'd just mutinied against his captain, his friend. Suddenly, the lives of all the crew rest souly on his shoulders. And he's just so tired. Tired of Odysseus ignoring his concerns, tired of seeing his friends and comrades die, tired of seeing Odysseus change for the worst and tired of being hungry. He wasn't in the right state of mind, he'd completely given up by the second half of 'mutiny'. During 'thunder bringer' he doesn't sound angry or even very betrayed. He just sounds apathetic, he's entirely given up at this point. He wants it all to end, and I can't say I blame him. What I'm saying is that, in this situation, would anyone have done anything different? With several gods already looming over you, wishing for your destruction, being so tired and so hungry, and having seen so many of your friends die would anyone really have left those cows?

Tldr; Eurylochus isn't entirely at fault, nobody is entirely at fault. All the actions taken are understandable. They are just humans and they make mistakes.

My work has eaten me up and I have almost no time to draw, I only had enough energy for this small meme...

Don't believe his big sad eyes!

orig under the cut!

GINGER ZEUS OML🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 I need to bite his head off :)c

He will bite back.

Don't say that I didn't warn you!

And thank you for the opportunity to officially present my design of Zeus, hehe)

Don’t know if I trust the way Christopher Nolan writes women for him to be allowed to tackle anything Greek mythology related

Kaos being cancelled rlly sucks and I’m sad we don’t see the continuation of the story but lord in heaven how do you make Orpheus Chris Martin when hozier was right there yearning and trying to bury himself, ascending to a higher plane of existence, viewing all his past lives, realising he is in fact the reincarnation of Orpheus and meanwhile Chris Martin is probably out there making a salad without dressing

What cruel made it so the feeling of hunger and feeling of shitting the same thing

Why must it be that I, a pity-less mortal, must suffer for the sins that a forfather from long ago did

Which god was the one that gave us this curse, was it Zeus, I bet it’s Zeus that fucker

i find it so hilarious that in pjo zeus is prickimus maximus but in the odyssey he is literally described as the nicest god

Ok so there was this pjo-tober thing where you make a pjo oc every day and I only made two lmao

HoWeVEr, I like them a lot so I’ll post some stuff about them (also I’m terrible with finding names so he doesn’t have one yet)

(He uses he/him btw)

Not gonna lie… I’m pretty proud of these.

So, meet the sisters. They are triplets with the same mother, but different fathers (God pregnancy is weird, but if the Norse goddess Frey’s can give birth to more than half of the dwarf population every single day then these three can be triplets with different fathers). I got most of my knowledge of mythology from “Overly Sarcastic Productions” Go to YouTube and check them out, show them some love ❤️ they are really cool.

The Angst is strong with these three, and they all need some therapy.

Kami:

Age: 11-ish

PTSD: Claustrophobia, from her mom locking her in the closet so many times

The youngest sister, and the daughter of Zeus. No one is really surprised by Zeus’s offspring anymore sense he can never “Keep it in his pants” the second a pretty mortal catches his eyes. And like all the other times Zeus’s wife, Hera, finds out Zeus had an affair with some other girl, Kami is now on Hera’s hit list. (For real, how is she even still WITH Zeus with the amount of times Zeus has cheated on her?) Even though no one is surprised by how many offsprings Zeus has had, no one would’ve guessed in a million years that Kami is Zeus’s daughter. It’s Darwinism at work, Kami is the total opposite of her dad, she is; shy, quiet, timid, selfless, a little gullible and naïve, her self esteem is almost nonexistent, and is afraid of fighting. She hates it when her sisters argue with each other, she’s worried about ending up on the terms their fathers are on with each other. She has the strongest magic out of her sisters, it she’s afraid to use it after what happened with her mom. Her mom would lock her in the closet, sometimes even overnight after she would have magical outbursts (if you’ve ever seen “Shazam” think of when Billy simply points at Freddy and Lightning bursts from his fingers). At camp, they sleep outside instead of in cabins thanks to her claustrophobia.

Morgan:

Age: 11-ish

Doesn’t have PTSD

The eldest. Daughter of Poseidon. Her mother didn’t punish her so much because she had more control of her magic and dint use it so much. She’s Lesbian but knew her mother wouldn’t have approved or accepted it so she kept it a secret. She tries to help her sisters get over their PTSD, but with how calm she acts, Dabi Gets mad at her easily and they argue often. She’s the kind of person that has your back, but there’s no one to have her back. The only person that doesn’t have Morgan in their lives is Morgan. She has an older half brother and she was thrilled to meet him in Camp, but her brother isn’t as happy to see her because he thanks his dad just left him to rule Atlantis by himself and just went out to impregnate someone and leave him to deal with it. She saved her sisters by dunking sleeping pills in her mom’s morning coffee. Thanks to Morgan‘s ability to control water they could get freshwater on the streets without having to pay for bottles, because Morgan can filter the dirty water. she just wants her older brothers approval and that isn’t very healthy for her.

Dabi:

Age: 11-ish

PTSD: Haphephobia (The fear of being touched)

Gods bless Dabi, she went through the absolute worst of the abuse. The middle child, Daughter of Hades. Fair mom was a bit of a nut job when it came to Catholic religion and worship (which is funny when you think about how Hades is basically the Greek version of Satan) Hades tricked her into thinking that he was some kind of angel or some other kind of Holy Spirit to have Dabi with her. When the sisters were three, their mother took them to church to get the girls baptized. But the priest started to scare Dabi and she accidentally set the priest on fire with a sudden magical outburst. After that, their mother locked Dabi up in the basement, she was convinced that her daughter was possessed by some kind of demon and did every thing she could to make her body “inhabitable” for a demon that was never even there to begin with. Until finally, their mother decided to crucify Dabi… her sisters weren’t going to let that happen. Dabi still has nightmares about being locked up and has a hard time trusting people. She won’t even let her sisters touch her, it took a long while before she got used to Kami clinging to her out of fear and when Morgan touches her to try and calm her down, but she still burns them on reflex from time to time. Has an older half brother who is the camp counselor, but she doesn’t get along with him because he focuses too much on the camp instead of her. The first friend she ever made was the son of Ate, who’s a bit of a floozy. Rescued a Wolf-Dog and named him Harry, Morgan sometimes refers to him as a therapy dog. Is a Dog person like her dad. When Dabi finds out who her father is, she denies it at first, because, not only is her dad the king of the Greek underworld, her mom was also right about her after all these years.

So please feel free to ask questions about these three, I’m am honestly very happy with the way that these girls turned out. Sorry it’s so long I tend to ramble about my characters😅

Also Go and check out the origins of Olympus on YouTube they are where I got this idea from and I just had to post it, so go check out the Minecraft Origins Crew and show them some ❤️ as well

Hope you enjoyed and as always, have a day or night full of magic ☺️💕

Why is this so cute???? I love them

The Homeric Hymn to Hermes is so fucking funny of an origin story. It really just goes

Maia sighing about this whole baby nonsense and going back to sleep: I did not ask for this

Hermes running off to kill a turtle invent a lyre and steal Apollo's cows before noon: alright good timing Apollo will notice any minute now

Maia waking up: why do you smell like beef -_-

Baby Hermes born twelve hours ago: Mom we are Not living in this cave anymore

Maia: What's this we shit you stole Apollo's cows that's a you problem get lost ! (she literally tried to kick him out of the cave right before Apollo shows up)

Apollo: Hey you ! I know you stole my cows !

Baby Hermes: ME ! But I am just a little baby in my blankies who wants my mother's milk how could I so weak and new born have stolen anything

Apollo: real babies don't talk dumbass let's go see Zeus

Zeus definitely laughing his ass off: Well Hermes what do you have to say for yourself

Hermes god of Lies: I can not tell a lie not to you who claims to be my father. Now you see I never took those cattle... across a threshold. And I will confess to my blame nesses

Zeus and Apollo very much aware he didn't swear to anything just then: Okay just show us the cows kid

Apollo walking with Hermes thirty hours old now a young boy not a baby: You are growing very fast I am actually terrified for your power when you're full grown, slayer of Argus.... don't worry about who Argus is

Hermes singing on his brand new lyre: Okay. Hey do you want this Apollo I knowww you love music

Apollo taking it: YES !

Hermes a normal amount of pleased -> literally in the text highlighted that this is the moment he started loving Apollo forever now: Okay awesome we should go tell Zeus we're besties now and you're totally cool about the cow stealing

Apollo: Yeah about that little thief. If you swear to never steal from me again I'll love you forever and hold you dear to my heart

Hermes nodding his head and very obviously avoids invoking the styx becuase you never know when you'll want to rob big brother again

Apollo: ... Good enough I promise to love you forever and give you lots of good gifts like this golden staff here enjoy !

Zeus sending his Eagle down to oversee this bond of brotherhood: Most successful sibling bonding exercise I have ever done well done Me

Hermes: I'm still going to swindle people all of the time to be clear

Apollo: I know I'm going to sing about you a lot !

Caged god.

I think I know why I like Greek Mythology so much. It's one of the only religions that I know of where all the godly beings are very obviously nuerodivergent.

The greeks knew it too. They knew they're godly deities were weird as fuck. Their godly deities who could look just like their neighbor or their doctor or someone they pass in the street.

The gods in Greek mythology are so human, especially compared to other religions at the time. It was the first one that designed its gods on humans, one of the first ones where it was okay to laugh at the funny situations the gods got themselves in. The only religion at the time where, though if you got them angry they may kill your entire family, you could interact and be friendly with them.

They were so human. They had a home, a place to live. They went to parties and had their hobbies.

On top of it all, the Olympians are the embodiment of a crazy dysfunctional family. They are a mess, from the cheating husband (and fucking weirdo) in Zeus, to the bitter and jealous wife in Hera. They have kids (mostly Zeus) some who Zeus likes and some where he could literally couldn't care less. There's scandals and messy situation ships. There are betrayals and tragedies. The gods all have their different morals and lines they won't cross and it depends on which god.

They're based on humans. They are so human. (Which is something I don't see often in religions at all and it heals some part of my religious trauma) Yet, they are also weird as fuck, in ways that I find familiar.

They each have their special little things. Things that they care about a mighty deal. Things that are specific especially to them.

Ares with his fighting and war. Hephaestus with his creations and the forge. Hera and her single-mind on Zeus and his disloyalty- that woman is relentless on those poor mistresses. Poseidon and his odd love of horses and other things. Apollo and his music.

It's almost like those things that they focus solely on is some kind of... Special interest perhaps?

It's also the way the act and react to things. They will take things that are said or done that seem small and trivial to another person and blow it up. They will get really upset and make it a whole ordeal.

Like when Athena made a flute and was laughed at cause blowing into it made her look funny so she freaking cursed the flute and it's next player with a terrible fate and threw it off the mountain for no good reason. Or when someone found that flute they played it so well that the bragged that they would even be better than Apollo so he came down, challenged them and then SKINNED them alive after he won. Like dude, calm down.

And I haven't even gotten into how Rick Riordan characterizes them cause I have never seen so many neurodivergent characters in one place then I do in those books. Like, all the campers are neurodivergent because they are demigods, heavy on the god. They got their neurodivergences from them right so it stands to reason that they are also neurodivergent.

Anywayyyyy,

Im reading a Greek mythology textbook right now so I'm going to continue this train of thought as I keep reading but so far, from what I can tell, these fuckers are soooooo nuerodivergent. Argue with a wall if you disagree

I'm screaming

“don’t get on the wrong side of my lightning bolts, boy.” -ToA, The Hidden Oracle (page 289)

aka i’ve been reading trials of apollo and lester/apollo is now one of my top favorite characters

My cousins forced me to watch d*sney’s Hercules yesterday and all other inaccuracies aside I think one of the worst offenders is them portraying Zeus as caring, loving and present father. I died of laughter when I saw it.

remember my Circus Olympus AU? I was listening to the soundtrack of The Greatest Showman, and OMG, it’s the CO musical. Every single music there can have a contest in the AU.

A million dreams? Hera and Zeus

Rewrite the starts? Apollo and Hyacinth

Never Enough? Aphrodite and Ares

Tightrope? HERA AND ZEUS AGAIN!

( I’m getting crazy whit this AU)

Circus Olympus

Ok, thats the prototype of a history I’m creating.

I like circus, I like Greek mitology, why not fuse both?! It’s pretty simple for now, a circus that takes place in the 20s /30s,where the artist named themselves after the Greek gods.

But names hold power, they’re clearly not the real Greek deity’s, but for using their names, they also get their personality, their fates are adapted to retelling of the original myth .

( Thats just an excuse to draw Apollo in a trapeze artist clothe)
