This is a scene from a story that I’ve had in my head for quite a long time and that I may draw some day. It would be a flashback that focuses mainly on Athena’s first crush (on Prometheus) and her asexuality (naturally, she and Aphrodite are not exactly friends, but here Athena still manages to open up).


(I’m still not sure about my own orientation, but this would still be one of the more personal things I’ve drawn. When it comes to sex and romantic love, I’ve often felt like I’m “broken”.)

[…] “but it was (we assume) as a commuter that the goddess was also a mediator, both Kore, the inoffensive maiden who could be imagined seated on her mother’s lap, and Persephone, who slept in the arms of the king of the dead. The return of Kore betokened the opening of communication between the two worlds and the possibility for mortals of winning the favour of the queen of the underworld.”

People in the comments being all bitter. As if the arts aren’t out here giving you a reprieve from all the shit y'all go through. As if the arts aren’t out here making sure you live a little bit instead of just surviving.
