[ً @holyaches]

i know my existence is temporary and so is yours， but god， please， as much as i love the stars they don't last forever. i don't mind being temporary as long as it means i'm temporary with you.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“But I don’t want Papa to be sad…”

Says the girl who has, once again, snuck out of a window.

[𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙹𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛 @yoursatirist]

"Because you father have adult problems those are seperate sadness. "

He ruffled her hair

"I didnt lie, you telling people would make him sad but its not the only source "

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“But you lied!”

Helen narrows her eyes as he gets down to her level. She even pokes at his forehead!

“Papa was still sad! You said Papa would be sad if I told more people, but I didn’t, so papa should be happy!”

[𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙹𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛 @yoursatirist]

"Well thats good"

He said getting closer and then crouched to be at her eye level.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“Hi scary man!”

Helen waves, smiling all proud like.

“I didn’t tell no one else just like you said!”

[𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝙹𝚎𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛 @yoursatirist]

Walking down casually unbothered but ready to be someones problem

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

•*~ Stolen hehehe

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

A pout, Helen will attempt to free her hand!

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

“Poseidon will definitely get you. Then what would happen? He’d take you down and you can not breathe the water.”

She said softly.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“But…But I was gonna eat it later…”

A pout. She hates being scolded.

[𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄 @0FILIUM]

“ helen ” she frowns a little

“ do not waste food like that. ”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

A raised eyebrow.

“Nuh uh? Unca said that he helped make the wall.”

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

Persephone noticed, children are innocent and she would keep the innocent. The waters though.. she shook her head.

“No, Poseidon will try to take you. The big meanie.”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“Hey @LUNARWLNGS. I got a new dolly and you don’t.”

😈

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

— docked along its shore.

But Helen seems to not take notice. She simply seems happy to be free for a little. And when at the shore, she gets her smile back and jumps up and down.

“I wanna go in the water please!”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

Surely Persephone may have noticed it, but there was most definitely a war going on outside the walls Helen wished to be freed from.

Lots of blood dried on the ground of the plains, any food stalls were set up on camps guarded by soldiers, and the sea had many large ships —

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

She walked carefully so the smaller one could keep up better. Once they reached the sand she took a deep breath.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

Helen is careful to not take a step until Persephone does, fearing she would be hurt again.

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

Her eyes followed the small child’s finger as she nodded.

“Alright, let’s go then.”

she spoke moving to walk towards the shoreline.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

A little more whines and sniffles as she calms herself down.

“I wanna go that way…”

Helen speaks quietly, pointing towards the shoreline.

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

Well. Let her be nicer. Maybe Persephone will ask her advice. But this is a city and she will not be the goddess responsible for a child’s downfall

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

A whine, but she nods.

Aidite is a much nicer goddess 🥺

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

Persephone had an eyebrow raise as she looked at their hands.

“Well I’m holding your hand.. you chose to try and run.”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

A pout, tears starting to form in her eyes.

“You hurted my arm…”

Because she tried to run 🫩

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

“What’s the matter?”

she spoke keeping her grip on the child. No child would be lost or harmed on her watch.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“Yeah!”

Helen immediately starts trying to run off in excitement but gets stopped due to her hand still being held.

A sniffle.

“Owie…”

[𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙚𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙣𝙚 @RulerofElysium]

Persephone nodded softly as she laughed a bit.

“Yes it is. I’m sure there’s a lot to see.”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“But I don’t think so!”

[𝐃 𝐈 𝐎 𝐍 𝐘 𝐒 𝐔 𝐒 @Dioncsus]

⠀⠀YAH HUH.
⠀

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

Running circles around @lovemorpho while chasing on the her butterflies.

She may have gotten into some sweets and ate them all.

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

Helen nods her head, dropping the half eaten apple to take the new fresh one.

“Thank you!”

[𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄 @0FILIUM]

she picks another apple to give her.

“ so much ? ”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

“Hunwry.”

Helen replied, still with a mouth full.

[𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄 @0FILIUM]

she chuckles and ruffles her hair.

“ how is my favourite niece doing ? ”

[Helen @TrojanDaughter]

Her eyes light up with joy!

“Thank you Andromommy!”

And bite.

[𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄 @0FILIUM]

she hands one to her.
