I'm just going to be reading these from now on
Hi Shana! I'm a big fan of your work, especially your Gods and Monsters series! Speaking of, can you do a bit on Nike please? Only if you want to of course! Keep doing what you're doing and have an awesome day!
Styx knows Ares needs help.
Hades knows this. Charon knows this. Persephone knows this.Icarus knows this. Athena, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Hera, Artemis and Apollo knowthis. Possibly everyone who’s not Zeus knows this.
But there’s only so much any of them can do.
Hades and the underworld is always a place that he can cometo, a place for him to rest. Ares will go to his brother’s volcanoes and soakhis aching muscles in the magma, Artemis finds him on the battlefield, Apolloplays him to sleep, Hera turns the tide of wars by whispering in the ears ofmothers and wives, but it’s not enough.
There’s so much war in the lives of mortal men, and Aresstruggles to shoulder it all, to endure it all.
Athena had helped the most. Having another war god to sharethe load helped, and it’s not like Athena is displeased with her increase infollowers. But the wars didn’t stop, or even end more quickly, and if theyweren’t all praying to Ares they were still praying for aid in war.
Styx wants to do something to help. But she’s tied to thisriver, to this place, and she doesn’t mind, exactly, except of course for whenshe does.
That’s okay. The underworld is where everyone ends up oneday, and there’s someone right here who can help her.
She’s not afraid to go into Tartarus. Her river flows even there,and unlike those who are imprisoned there, she can leave whenever she likes.But just because she’s not afraid doesn’t mean she likes it, doesn’t mean it’sa place she goes often.
The edges are lined with active volcanoes, and the light oftheir magma is all there is to see by.
Those titans who retain their sanity, their personhood, arein the center of Tartarus. Those on the edge are more monster than god. Theytend to eat every soul that they find that’s less powerful than they are, andStyx wouldn’t say she’s less powerful, but she is differently powerful, and shedoesn’t want to have to call out for Hades to save her.
She can’t die. She is the space between life and death, but beingconsumed by a titan isn’t something she wants to experience regardless.
Unfortunately for her, the titan she needs isn’t the type tohang around the center of Tartarus, not causing trouble. He’s right on theedge. He’s always looking to cause trouble.
Pallas is large even for a titan, standing at the sameheight as a giant, so big that Styx could stand in the palm of his hand. Hisskin is mostly intact, but it’s stretched taught over his bones, and his mouthlooks like it’s filled with jagged glass rather than teeth. “What does thegoddess of the river of the dead want with me?”
His breath comes out putrid and rotten, like something diedin it. Probably several somethings did. She wrinkles her nose. “I need tocreate a person, and I want your help to do it.”

I have never thought of it this way. Jesus Christ
You guys are ready for Hades to find out what Apollo did but think about this
Ares finding out
Ariadne and Dionysus as parents headcannons?
Ahh 🤩 anon my favourite types of headcanons! Where to begin:
Okay so first i have the idea of Ariadne being terrified of being a mother (especially when she first became pregnant) and honestly who could blame her? Imagine her for years seeing her parents mistakes. First his father's infidelity, her mother's jealousy, then a sibling that turned her family upside down. Worse she had to watch every year innocents become her brother's sacrifice
Thankfully Dionysus would always prove to her how loyal and supportive he would be to her. Pain? He immediately requests Apollo or Hermes. Walking around? No he carries her. Hungry? Here's a buffet to fill a king. He would always want her to be comfortable and not have any issues or pain
After the first kid was born Dionysus would definitely be so emotional holding his son in his arms. Imagine him holding a sleepy newborn and Ariadne is exhausted but so happy i think Dionysus seeing both of them well and healthy would make him emotional with tears of joy (especially knowing his own past with his mother and him)
Oh their sons would never get bored that's for sure! Dionysus would know how to entertain the kids and Ariadne as well would always try new tricks to show to her kids. Especially with them moving so much their kids would see new places and the festives would be endless for the whole family to enjoy
So. Many. Pranks 😨 poor Ariadne had to deal with an army of men in her family from their scandals
Both would want to make sure nothing is missing from their kids lives and would provide them everything. Of course the Maenads and Satyrs would help raise the kids as well
They always however gave them freedom to do whatever they wanted in their lives. If it's something to know from them as parents is that they disliked being confined or controlled by their family.
But also it was bittersweet despite the many children and later their grandchildren they knew it wouldn't last. Both were immortal but all their kids would eventually wither so they would always support their kid's paths and be grateful for being in their lives.
Bonus some of their sons being important in the myths:
Oenopion: Became king of Chios and introduced winemaking to the island, later blinded the giant Orion.
Staphylus: Associated with grapes and fertility; fathered children linked to Apollo’s myth and Trojan prophecy.
Thoas: Became king of Lemnos; father of Hypsipyle, whose sons with Jason connected his line to the Argonauts.
Love IS INDEED a force to be reckoned with huh🤣🤣🤣

Good Omens scenes as vines Part 2 (Part 1)
(Thank you to everyone who commented on my first vine compilation - it made me incredibly happy and motivated me to make a second part!)
I upgraded Little Chuck's design cause it just wasn't sitting well with me......but I think I like this design better! I'm in the process of making new comics explaining my story line a bit more, but life gets in the way.
I don't know if anyone actually reads or looks at the stuff I post (besides the couple of amazing people who have ty btw) but it helps to look at amazing art everyday made by other people. I know I'm not as talented as most of them, but I hope who ever does read this enjoys the adventures of Little Chuck!
Why is he so FUCKING HOT and then shes just THE WHOLE DAMN MEAL
