btw Epic did make the baby dropping seem like a huge moral conflict, but the truth his he just basketball that baby immediately. Odysseus is the one who orchestrated the entire sacrifice of Iphigenia so they could go to war immediately. Agammenon was out there going but I do wanna kill my daughter and Odysseus was like but you gottaaaaa omg get over it. Then they wanted to kill Polyxena and her mother told him I love her like you love Telemachus, don't kill her, and he was like new phone who dis. When it's kids not his own that must be killed he starts blasting.

it’s very funny that compared to the original source, epic the musical is basically odysseus propaganda that paints him in the best possible light and he is still just straight up a not good person🥹

he is SO funny and it’s almost worse that he has a moral compass (albeit one that is experiencing a electromagnetic quake) in epic cause the entire middle section of the musical was him going from crippling guilt to psychotic behaviour like 5 times and then being shocked that everyone is mad at him

Lord Apollo, god of medicine-

Please heal my tummy ache.

The Start of My Journey with Hekate

TW: miscarriage

This past Mother's Day has been another year of staring in the mirror wondering what could've been. It was heavy and unkind and exhausting. It was also the first Mother's Day of finally accepting and practicing my faith. I did a bit of research as we visited my mother-in-law and I snuggled the dog I came to call my sweet little girl. Not much came up in the line of searching for deities that could guide me through finally tackling years of repressed grief, but I found myself drawn time and time again to the thought of Hekate as I researched.

She is a deity I have been drawn to in the past. Her role of guidance of protection in The Rape of Persephone is something I always found comfort in. Magic is something I was pulled towards the first time I tried to come to terms with my faith in my teen years before unfortunately receding into myself again. Her reputation for taking in the strays is something I've resonated with growing up the black sheep of my family and my peers.

Now, perhaps a deity centered around motherhood would make more sense for most on this journey - and by all means, find who resonates and brings you comfort and progress. But, I find myself reflecting on my past with this long road and seeing all the bargains I tried to make, the promises to get myself right and be the best I can be. I see the way I take in those around me and care for them, protecting them the best I can and guiding them whenever possible. I find myself wiser and older for my experience despite my age. I find myself most at peace and able to explore my journey in the safety of night with the comfort of the moonlight.

Each person's journey with their faith is their own, and this is mine. I find comfort in my worship of Apollon, Persephone, and Hermes. I'm excited to work with Hekate through my journey, her torch keeping me warm and reminding me that I am not alone. The love of my deities fills me with love for myself and the patience to do this right and not rush my recovery.

thinking about the time castiel became god and decided one of the first orders of business was to kill homophobic religious leaders... that was essentially his coming out scene to me

a bitter broken contrast
