@ChillyWeirdo Kids these days (bear with me) don’t get that fiction is…fictional? Meant to be enjoyed? Brb, resting my eyeballs, they hurt from all the rolling around.
@ChillyWeirdo Also like, I really want these people to look back at their family tree and tell me there isn’t at least one close relation marriage in there because I highly doubt that’s possible. Cousin marriage is THOUSANDS of y/o. Also its 2022 we have birth control if that’s your issue.
@DrunkLiS@Al__Samil True. But death and the lord of death are not one and the same. Hades rules the underworld. The Greeks also had personifications for many kinds of Death. There are also sects of syncretism between Hades and Zeus (who parallels John more strongly IMO).
@Al__Samil To my knowledge most of the Celtic gods had a physical form with three heads; the morrígan is actually a trio of sisters instead of a single goddess; Greek Hecate as lunar deity had three faces corresponding to waxing, full, waning. Etc.
@ChillyWeirdo Ah fuck! That…that was probably me? I figured people would assume it was holiday cantered anyway. I am a very tired fool, and I beg apologies.
@korrasatx I think it’s definitely a big parallel between Gideon & Harrow and Alecto & John! Harrow is the literal ruler of the underworld when we meet her, with Dreadburh described as a pit in the earth, very much like the Greek entrances to Hades. And Gideon is the flower of her house!
"you said I killed you—haunt me, then. be with me always, take any form, drive me mad. only do not leave me in this abyss, where i cannot find you" >>>>> all other ship dynamics
@ChillyWeirdo @TheoBurrArt Also… teenagers can have consensual sex (with each other). It’s not a particularly adult thing to do. I’m seeing arguments about Nona thinking of herself as a child because she was born six months ago but Nona also knows she’s not human.
