If we go by mythology alone, all of the most notable gods would be horrifying figures. Persephone was Hades’ pubescent(unwilling) niece, Poseidon raped Medusa (for which Athena then blamed the victim), and so on. We don’t need to assume that Hephaestus was actually punted off.
Besides, Hephaestus is not described as particularly deformed in ‘Children of the Gods,’ IIRC.
To be fair, the gods can alter their bodies into the most appealing figures imaginable. If Hepheaestus wanted to, he could probably make himself look more attractive. If not, maybe the Olympian standards of beauty are a bit more skewed, with average looking being considered ugly by their standards.
But he’s not described as all that different from the other gods, either.
Speaking of Hephaestus, why is he on the same side as Ares? You’d think he’d want to stick it to his wife and her lover.
Same here. Hades was more of a fatherly figure to Nyx. She wants him to be her father. Because her early childhood memories involved him and Athena. And Zeus? She’s only heard the horrendous myths and stories about his problem with keeping it in his pants. My MC doesn’t even see Saint as her brother, and she pity him. And she pity herself for not being able to play along with his expectations.
Zeus doesn’t wear pants, you mortal pleb.
That would explain why a lot of the statues of the Greek Gods have a noticeable lack of clothing…
Because they’re as thirsty as a bunch of romance-dazzled CoGers?
I don’t know, I think the people here have them beat out…
Ha, can’t beat MY thirst
*Violently chugs cups of water
… Did… Did you not drink the water I gave you a while ago? Lol
Pft, one cup of water cannot satisfy my thirst for those abs
Hm… we’re going to have to hook you up to a IV machine just to make sure your body isn’t dehydrated from all of that thirst
As a bonus, we could just pour water all over Aeson’s abs for Fay to drink off of.
Somehow I get a feeling that Stressed is going to fight Fay over that.
On a serious note though;
If I ever get connected to an IV machine I want it to be filled with ice tea.
Lemme guess, you want Kermit the Frog sitting by you and going “Hmmm…” while he’s sipping on a cup of tea.
God damn it, you know me better than I know myself.
And oddly enough I don’t want Aeson, but my MC do. Aeson is more like a son-in-law.
Lol it’s a good skill that I have. Although I’m surprised that I can read people’s minds online.
So this is what unlimited power feels like…
Alright. Enough about Aeson, I actually want to discuss about Saint.
I mean, he barerly get any spotlight.
So how do your bearer feel about him? Do they long for a family, or do they think that Saint should mind their own bussiness?
Saint honestly confuses me a bit. Partially because I don’t feel like he’s being used enough in the script. He doesn’t feel like a brother to my bearers. He’s just kind of…there.
