Greek Mythology From A To Z:

Albert Lynch (1851 - 1912), Jeanne d'Arc

Nestor after returning to his homeland after the Trojan war

Hello, yes. After a year without uploading and in, what I feel, one of the weirdest ‘fandom’ twists, I’ve gone from obsessing over 80s musicals about anthropomorphic cats and trains to being obsessed with ancient books and plays. What can I say, the duality of man. (not that the cats and trains are fully gone, they never will).

Anyways, this low effort meme I made way to late at night is my application form to my fellow mythology and epic cycle girlies.

Greek mythology from A to Z:

[A] -  Asclepius (Ἀσκληπιός) was the god of medicine, son of the god Apollo. Asclepius was given to the Centaur Chiron, who raised him and taught him medicine and the healing arts. At some point, Asclepius healed a snake, which in return taught him secret knowledge - snakes were considered divine beings that were wise and could heal.

Norse mythology from A to Z:

[T] - Týr is a war god, but also the god who, more than any other, presides over matters of law and justice.

I keep thinking about the suggestion that Apollo hated Achilles so much because Achilles was literally just like him but mortal (blond, musical, good with a sword, talented at medicine) and he just didn't care for that.

Long time ago I doodled this cause I thought it was funny lol

Greek mythology from A to Z:

[H] - Hermaphroditus (Ἑρμαφρόδιτος) was the son of Hermes and Aphrodite. He was born as a boy, and was raised by naiad nymph on Mount Ida. When he reached the age of fifteen, he decided to explore further from his surroundings and eventually reached the forest of Caria near Halicarnassus. There, he met the nymph Salmacis in a pool, who was overcome with desire for the boy. However, she was rejected by him, who after thinking the nymph had left, undressed and entered the pool. Salmacis then suddenly appeared and wrapped herself around him. While he was trying to evade her, she asked the gods to be forever united with Hermaphroditus, and the gods listened to her wish. As a result, their bodies were blended into one and became a creature of two sexes.

Greek mythology from A to Z:

[I] - Iris (Ἶρις) was the goddess – or, better yet, personification – of the rainbow, and a messenger for the gods.

Greek mythology from A to Z:

[N] - Nyx (Νύξ) was the personification of the night, and the daughter of Chaos.

Ares and Aphrodite texting:

Aphrodite: Good night xxx!

Ares: Good night.

Aphrodite: It would be better if you put x's at the end of the sentences, xxx!

Ares: Ok?

Ares: Good night Calliope, Otrera, Althea, Terpsichore!
