I had a random thought that spiraled into a whole thing that I need to rant about
What if, at some point, before or after ToA, Apollo just… snapped? What if he got fed up with his true relationships failing, his father's abuse, or having to oversee so many different things? What if he quit?
He left his various jobs and responsibilities to either the Nine Muses or mortals he deemed fit. He gave the sun chariot to Hestia, since she was the only one he could trust with such a duty.
After making sure everything was right, and after telling only his sister, Artemis, of his plans, he vanished. He set off to get revenge against those who wronged him, and to find his happy ending.
this is what i think he'd look like after all that
