I’m not a classicist, but I suspect one of the reasons so many of the Greek gods are portrayed so unflatteringly was less because they were seen as villains than because they represented their domains. Of course Zeus sometimes misuses his power, that’s what a king does. Of course Artemis’s wrath is wild and painful, that’s what nature can be. Of course Hades snatched away a young girl from her mother’s arms, that’s what death does. This is one of the reasons callout posts for some gods comparing them negatively to ‘nicer’ gods are kind of missing the point.
Marauders fans be like “i read AU’s to escape the pain of cannon” and then the AU is the bloody Hunger Games
Metaphorically I guess you could say Hua Cheng as crimson rain represents heaven's blood and period cramps considering his whole blood rain thing and periodic just being a huge pain in the balls for everyone involved and then Xie Lian would therefore be the tampon sucking up his destruction briefly before he eventually enters his toxic shock era and destroys heaven even more than hc did
“Get his ass” Is so unreasonably funny to me. A huge win for the English language. Today’s version of “seize him” imo
foolish one (taylor's version) is for the situationship girlies only
Guys please don't hate me for this but I just saw a piece of xie lian fanart with my glasses off and genuinely thought it was a picture of a tampon
I feel like when I say ‘relatable’ what I really mean is ‘resonant.’ I don’t want characters who I feel are like me, I want characters who have emotions so strong I can feel them through the page.
