Average day for Orpheus

hard shale
#

Greek cults, fandom wars

plucky ridge
#

So what are the gifts for the bottle thing you get, i collected all the collectibles but then what's the uses for it?

potent river
#

Typical tuesday

random nest
#

Yeah, the zeus persephone link is just the most common

whole mulch
#

Giving it to npcs

atomic forge
#

would be cool to see jason too

ebon cradle
#

The Zagreus from the Euripides fragment is suggestive of Dionysus, the wine god son of Zeus and Semele,[12] and in fact, although it seems not to occur anywhere in Orphic sources, the name “Zagreus” is elsewhere identified with an Orphic Dionysus, who had a very different tradition from the standard one.[13] This Dionysus was a son of Zeus and Persephone who was, as an infant, attacked and dismembered by the Titans, but later reborn as the son of Zeus and Semele.

atomic forge
#

of the argonauts I mean of course lol

whole mulch
#

@plucky ridge give them to npcs to see extra scenes

random nest
#

The earliest has him linked to Gaia and has him as the highest being in the underworld

plucky ridge
#

Ah okay

ebon cradle
#

I am kinda interested in the whole reborn link

plucky ridge
#

Also what are those 2 locked rooms?

hard shale
#

One is Hades' Room

potent river
#

Your fathers room

atomic forge
#

my guess would be other mechanics

#

other things that can be done or something later implemented

ebon cradle
#

I know its basically his stuff as a dionysus alpha version but hmmmm

random nest
#

Future content is likely

atomic forge
#

definitely future content

potent river
#

Like the story flashback

hard shale
#

Nice going narrator

potent river
#

So what are the other Furies up to?

plucky ridge
#

I got a scene wheee i rest and went spying hhaha

atomic forge
#

they've been hinting at no one knowing

#

so surely they're cooking something up for them

potent river
#

I thought Meg knew something, since she is picking up all the slack

random nest
#

I'm curious as to who the narratos is

#

Zag calls him an old man

atomic forge
#

hmm

#

tartarus

#

lol

pastel thicket
#

kronosss?

plucky ridge
#

Ya, apparently the 2 other furries are om the surface joining some war

potent river
#

Narrator is just some old dead guy

atomic forge
#

When in doubt, Homer

#

cronos sort of is just some old dead guy?

pastel thicket
#

ohhhh homer would make sense

atomic forge
#

haha

random nest
#

Homer would be pretty good

atomic forge
#

and yeah true

pastel thicket
#

thatd be fun

visual laurel
#

Homer would be a great twist lol

#

Dude's just hanging out in the underworld

#

Narrating people's lives

random nest
#

And would make sense for why he knows so much

atomic forge
#

also if he's in world

#

where tf is he lol

potent river
#

Wouldn't Chronos be locked up with the Titans? I honestly can't remember but I think he was a titan

atomic forge
#

yeah he is papa titan

pastel thicket
#

lol papa titan

random nest
#

Chronos and Kronus are different

atomic forge
#

who are in tartarus actually I think

random nest
#

Kronus is the titan

atomic forge
#

in the basement

pastel thicket
#

Chronos means time in Greek

hard shale
#

One is Time, one is Harvest

atomic forge
#

nah its just different spellings lol

random nest
#

Chronos is the personification of time

atomic forge
#

both are used for both

#

they are one and the same often

whole mulch
#

Erebus?

pastel thicket
#

(thats why that game is called Chrono Trigger)

atomic forge
#

like hades, tartarus etc

potent river
#

Well harvest my clock and call me dad, its that time again

random nest
#

They aren't interchanged

whole mulch
#

Nyx's husband?

hard shale
#

Erebus?

random nest
#

There's variations on the spellings, but a time is always with a C and the titan is always with a K

potent river
#

What do you guys think of the titans making an appearance?

atomic forge
#

id be for it

whole mulch
#

Probably going to happen

atomic forge
#

they're cool

pastel thicket
#

I wonder how they would represent them though

potent river
#

Might be the idols, scaling the challenge

whole mulch
#

Atleast the hundred handed are down there

pastel thicket
#

will we fight a giant foot, binding of isaac style?

hard shale
#

Yay killing great-grandpa

atomic forge
#

oh cronus and Chronos you mean

#

as in both can be spelt with a k or c but ch is time dad

pastel thicket
#

time papa

atomic forge
#

cr/kr is papa titan

#

gotcha

random nest
#

Oh right, the H is the distinction

potent river
#

H

#

Its important

pastel thicket
#

as a greek person, that englified version makes no sense

atomic forge
#

yeah tartarus is where all the cool giant monsters are

#

and lol

#

fair enough

#

Kron(o/u)s (titan) and Chronos (god of time) are not interchangeable, but have often been mixed up or combined, often due to translation problems/inaccuracies)

#

yeah we just establsihed that lol

whole mulch
#

What else is supposed to be in the underworld monster wise?

atomic forge
#

we could see pandora too perhaps

ebon cradle
#

if underworld is falling apart like it is there's a huge problem with possible titans

pastel thicket
#

oooo pandora sounds super supergiant

ebon cradle
#

reemergeing

atomic forge
#

and umm, nothing roaming really

potent river
#

Pandora in Chaos

pastel thicket
#

WAIT

#

wasnt there a pandora box in bastion

#

or smth

atomic forge
#

ummmm

#

some similar idea maybe?

pastel thicket
#

its been so many years since i played bastion

atomic forge
#

same lol

potent river
#

Time to go replay it

random nest
#

Yup

whole mulch
#

I was thinking about doing a marathon of all three games that preceded this

atomic forge
#

a lot of the cool greek monsters are sort of on the surface where they can ruin peoples days though, so idk

random nest
#

^

potent river
#

Also
You are right, them reemerging could be a serious threat

atomic forge
#

since they already took out cerberus as a friend

random nest
#

There's a lot of stuff at the gates of the underworld

atomic forge
#

and we've seen a hyrda

#

yeah

random nest
#

Mostly all the stuff that's a cause of death

potent river
#

Specifically the Hydra Herakles killed

random nest
#

Like old age and what not

whole mulch
#

Typhon itself?

atomic forge
#

lmao

#

Geriatros, personification of old age?

#

that would be a bit beyond our paygrade i think

#

typhon is supposedly in tartarus though

#

underneath that volcano or something I think

whole mulch
#

Typhon would be cool fighting the father of most of the notable monsters in the greek world

atomic forge
#

yeah but man

#

how do you depict that man haha

pastel thicket
#

i wanna fight the dum cyclops odysseus blinded

atomic forge
#

the descriptions of him are totally crazy

#

and all the old pictures people tried to draw of him are woefully understated haha

potent river
#

Shapeshifting

#

multi form bosses

atomic forge
#

blind cyclops would be cool

#

and that just aint really him chief

ebon cradle
#

I want to pick up eurydice and patroclus and place then horizontally before their respective people

whole mulch
#

I would rather the hundred handed giants over the cyclops as titans to fight

atomic forge
#

yeah it would be cool to like

#

find peoples missing loves or friends

potent river
#

Maybe certain gifts to unlock all the hearts, from the loved ones?

atomic forge
#

and have to make the choice to rip a run to bring them back

#

or keep going and hope you find them another time

ebon cradle
#

like in fallout new vegas where I couldn't take Christine with me back to the wasteland to see Veronica it was heartbreakinh

whole mulch
#

...Don't remind me

random nest
#

We could run into Menoetius

#

Who has the job of guarding Hades' cattle

potent river
#

hes going a great job

atomic forge
#

not a single cow in sight

#

he's either doing very well or very, very badly haha

ebon cradle
#

maybe we will have cow levels

random nest
#

Well he's gotta keep them close to guard them

potent river
#

there is none

whole mulch
#

The three judges might be a boss?

random nest
#

Yeah

pastel thicket
#

i wanna have a multi boss

#

like fighting 2 at the smae time

whole mulch
#

Or the lack of them could be part of the reason hades has so much work on his hands

atomic forge
#

three judges could be cool

pastel thicket
#

O&S

atomic forge
#

the other two furies could be our O&S

pastel thicket
#

LOL

random nest
#

Well sleep time for me, have fun all

potent river
#

night, im heading to there too

whole mulch
#

Okay how many of us are actually expecting a happy ending

#

Later guys

atomic forge
#

imagine teaming up with meg tho, if you max out her conversation/friend meter mmm

#

like a good old dark souls npc storyline

random nest
#

Given supergiant's other games...

#

Half and half

atomic forge
#

and mmm yeah

potent river
#

i mean, its greek, its gotta end in tragedy

pastel thicket
#

Its always bitter sweet

random nest
#

Also that

atomic forge
#

considering this is their darkest so far

#

probs not haha

pastel thicket
#

is it their darkest?

#

so far it feels light

atomic forge
#

You could have various not-so-valiant characters from mythology show up as bosses, who fight you on Hades' promise to easy their suffering in the underworld.

visual laurel
#

World hasnt ended yet

random nest
#

Now really good night

visual laurel
#

No nuclear bombs

atomic forge
#

in terms of themes, which is I think why there is so much comedy

potent river
#

nah, not too dark

atomic forge
#

to offset the literal hell of the situation

whole mulch
#

Well the hint of the world is ending is there definitely

pastel thicket
#

i am not even sure why zag wants to see his mother so bad

atomic forge
#

yeah something is up for sure

visual laurel
#

Hades is Having Some Trouble but it's fine! it's fine. he's fine. it's fine. everything's fine.

pastel thicket
#

the underworld business is having problems

atomic forge
#

Atlantis West isn't sinking

ebon cradle
#

hmmmm

#

it is weird

whole mulch
#

Two Furies being away on business, Persephone is missing to both olympus and hades, A war that Meg hints at occupying everyone

ebon cradle
#

the war could be world war

#

If real history

pastel thicket
#

world war??

visual laurel
#

and meanwhile hades' son has decided it's a good time to stress everyone out

pastel thicket
#

shouldnt it be more like trojan war

#

or like peloponnesean war

#

or smth

visual laurel
#

Trojan War's well over and done

ebon cradle
#

idk i think B I G

whole mulch
#

Nah Trojan war is definitely over

atomic forge
#

i still lke the its actually the present day up on the surface theory

whole mulch
#

Achilles has been long dead

potent river
#

Hell in disarray, Gods seeing to you before this war, making you an asset to that war

pastel thicket
#

yeh true, seeing as Achillies is dow

atomic forge
#

Have some Norse hero show up in the underworld because there was a clerical error which brought him to the wrong afterlife

#

and yeah all the myths are over I think, everyone is here pretty much

hard shale
#

Hade's work is in disarray, and his wife is gone so he's really crabby about it

whole mulch
#

Chaos finding its way back through the cracks

#

Sounds like a greek mythological apocalypse to me

atomic forge
#

yeah surely there is some narrative significance to the chaos areas

potent river
#

Things are being set in motion, and willing or not you play a part in the cogs

whole mulch
#

I am just calling it how I see it honestly

hard shale
#

So...Zag is the bringer of the end?

whole mulch
#

Possibly

#

Or a new begining

ebon cradle
#

ye

atomic forge
#

i think he's more incidental than a main player

ebon cradle
#

like kratis

pastel thicket
#

its kinda fun we get a piece of the story every month and then we can theorize

atomic forge
#

he's clearly being kept in the dark by a lot of the other characters

potent river
#

Say, with the Furies gone, Hell in a nightmare of condition, what are the chances of the titans coming loose? Or at least one

atomic forge
#

not sure what place they have in this version of the mythos

#

The cliche/classic thing to happen would be for Zag to find a way to leave the underworld but in doing so he inadvertently frees the Titans

whole mulch
#

That name is associated with being torn apart and being put together so it is possible he is at least a remaker as well

atomic forge
#

considering everyone else in hades is """""dead"""""

hard shale
#

Also didn't Persephone's name mean destroyer or something?

atomic forge
#

they're probably still kicking out there somewhere

whole mulch
#

Possibly the only time I have seen Persephone's name take that connotation is Wicked + Divine

atomic forge
#

i dont think we'll be going with tearing apart/remaking, as that hits too many similarities to transistor and historically SGG like to break new ground with the purpose of their narratives

#

Alternatively: Zag opens the gates of the underworld, causing a zombie apocalypse in the overworld, leading into The Walking Dead

potent river
#

So no remaking, just tearing

whole mulch
#

LOL all good theories

potent river
#

got it

whole mulch
#

The Underworld is big so it means it must have big guts?

atomic forge
#

hades is a big guy

potent river
#

The doots are coming Hades

ebon cradle
#

idk i keep thinking about rebirth

#

there's a big theme of hopelessness

#

and like being stuck in hopeless situation

potent river
#

Eh, thats just how Dads are

lunar kiln
#

Zag pulls an Undertale and everybody goes to live on the surface

pastel thicket
#

its all about familyyy tho

atomic forge
#

i cant help but think that rebirth is slightly off the mark, as we're just sort of coming back whole

ebon cradle
#

undertale Pacifist

atomic forge
#

not restarting from scratch per se

ebon cradle
#

ye its just that og myth of zarg had it

potent river
#

Ohana means Family, now give me Deflect Athena.

pastel thicket
#

LOL

#

That athena deflect is so good

whole mulch
#

I never got used to it

atomic forge
#

and yeah I agree that family will be a big player this time around

potent river
#

Deflect Bow Special

atomic forge
#

theme-wise

#

Nah, Zag realizes the futility of his escape plans, accepts his place in the underworld and helps Daddy Hades get things back on track.

#

and deflect is my fav yeah

#

Growing up

whole mulch
#

That might be good

atomic forge
#

second half of the game is a hell management sim

ebon cradle
#

idk i even have a dumb. idea about us being dionysus and us being stuck in underworld and everyone on surface is now depress

atomic forge
#

ggs no re

potent river
#

Hell management sim sounds fun

whole mulch
#

LOL you escape the underworld and share all the wine

pastel thicket
#

that would explain why the gods help us

potent river
#

If I could just open these casks

ebon cradle
#

we just want the wine back man

#

ambrosia is good

atomic forge
#

the gods might even want zag to replace his papa

ebon cradle
#

but we need alcohol

atomic forge
#

they're clearly not overly keen on the way things are down there

pastel thicket
#

its all about papas in this game

ebon cradle
#

which means just trapping him there again

potent river
#

Then they would probably tell you, that you are the God of Wine

ebon cradle
#

which means Kronos will make an appearance

lunar kiln
#

Zaggy zaggy yes papa

potent river
#

No

ebon cradle
#

probably

pastel thicket
#

is zag the god of anything

lunar kiln
#

Leaving hell? No papa

whole mulch
#

Well they aren't keen about Hades holding a grudge over anything

pastel thicket
#

he is more like a demi god right?

ebon cradle
#

yup

atomic forge
#

They don't really seem to care about the state of the underworld (if they know about it at all), they simply don't particularly like their estranged brother/uncle/etc

#

disobeying your father was it?

whole mulch
#

Well he is the god of talking back at hades

atomic forge
#

there was some line hades says

#

yeah thats it

#

talking back haha

pastel thicket
#

LOL

whole mulch
#

Sorry for stealing that one

pastel thicket
#

I missed that one

ebon cradle
#

which is weird cause 0ersephone is goddess

#

maybe he is like a. nymph

hard shale
#

God of Back Sass

atomic forge
#

all good I couldnt remember it haha

#

nymphs are sorta different I think

ebon cradle
#

and his desire to run away is like river and he is representation of river and bleh

atomic forge
#

they're uuh

ebon cradle
#

he is sans undertale

atomic forge
#

also Nymphs are female. minor detail

potent river
#

God of Dashing

atomic forge
#

from cronus

#

in a way...

#

yeah also that lol

ebon cradle
#

skelly is sans undertale

pastel thicket
#

in Greek mythology is a minor female nature deity typically associated with a particular location or landform.

atomic forge
#

god of left click

pastel thicket
#

totally didnt copy paste it from wiki

ebon cradle
#

hm

lunar kiln
#

I just think we shouldnt look TOO deep yknow

atomic forge
#

click those dam skellies zag

potent river
#

Looking too deep is what we do here

ebon cradle
#

please let us make bad game theories

lunar kiln
#

Cant blame u

#

Please proceed

pastel thicket
#

i support the wine one

potent river
#

We like to stare into Chaos here

atomic forge
#

"It's all a simulation, Zag. You need to wake up."

potent river
#

Free darkness, just costs life

hard shale
#

Is there a God of Corpses or Rot in Greek Mythology?

atomic forge
#

not that specifically

#

Zag is a guy lying in a coma in a hospital, imagining to be Zag escaping from Hades, symbolizing his consciousness attempting to break free from the coma and wake up. There, solved.

#

(and totally not the plot of "Live on Mars")

potent river
#

Poseidon feels like that cool uncle that wears Cargo shorts and a floral print shirt that shares his beers with you even if you are underaged just don't tell your dad.

atomic forge
#

Broseidon

whole mulch
#

Shame his boons are kind of not good

atomic forge
#

All he needs is a hawaiian shirt

potent river
#

Knockback is great (If it worked even slightly on bosses)

whole mulch
#

Just not enough walls in part two to make use of it

atomic forge
#

Oh I had a lot of fun with his knockback + wall damage. Until I fought meg and it turned out she was immune to the effect and I was stuck with pittiful base sword damage

potent river
#

Spear toss, with Pos on special, is a fun back and forth wave to swirl your enemies in

ebon cradle
#

knock back is so much fun

atomic forge
#

But until that fight I was bashing Louts into wall across the room like with a giant baseball bat

ebon cradle
#

just need a way to work on bosses

potent river
#

there and back again, A Louts tale

whole mulch
#

LOL I might have messed myself up with that posiden spear special a few times

atomic forge
#

Hades Space Program. Launch your enemies INTO SPACE

barren perch
#

so i had a thought

potent river
#

when you pull in a thug and the hit triggers your last Defiance

barren perch
#

darren and ashley voice specific characters whenever there's a vocal track in any game

ebon cradle
#

hm

barren perch
#

in bastion is was ashley as zia and darren as zulf

ebon cradle
#

I think a lot about pomegranate

barren perch
#

in transistor ashley was red

potent river
#

they are pretty tasty

atomic forge
#

me too

#

is it really that good though

ebon cradle
#

in the og myth it was what bound persephone to the underground

barren perch
#

in pyre ashley and darren were celeste and tariq

potent river
#

tart, but nice

atomic forge
#

because if so I want one

whole mulch
#

Been calling Ashley to voice Eurydice if we ever meet her

atomic forge
#

idk what I'd level up though

ebon cradle
#

but now it serves as something that binds fyou to Olympic gods

atomic forge
#

maybe % chance to want to start working on projects

barren perch
#

i figured it must be eurydice yeah

atomic forge
#

thats a good one

whole mulch
#

Sorry I have been yelling it all day I am just glad someone else came to that conclusion

potent river
#

Nah, got to up that knockback on social encounters, keep them out

whole mulch
#

Well they hint at Persephone hiding from both olympus and the underworld

atomic forge
#

i already teched into drawing people in though

whole mulch
#

Doesn't that mean spring will never come to the mortal world

atomic forge
#

i know too much info that is only good in casual conversation about dumb stuff

potent river
#

Push and pull, balance in all things

#

Eternal winter it is then

ebon cradle
#

also

whole mulch
#

Which means Ragnarok has started

#

So where is Kratos?

potent river
#

Nah, just wear a coat, its not that cold

ebon cradle
#

her being kidnapped cause demeter to ruin earth of sort

#

her leaving underworld is not maybe ruining it?

barren perch
#

demeter wouldn't bring back spring if she didn't know perse was back

ebon cradle
#

yes

barren perch
#

i wonder how much the gods know about the situation

#

they obv dont know that zag is looking for persephone

whole mulch
#

Reasons why I am saying greek apocalypse theory

potent river
#

They see it from such a distance they think Skelly is the lord of Bones

atomic forge
#

yeah they all think nyx is his mother still

#

and he doesnt correct them

whole mulch
#

Meg even references this fact in their pre fight banter

potent river
#

I mean, would you try to correct a God?

ebon cradle
#

and its WEIRD

#

because why does he not ask them?

#

they would know

barren perch
#

would they?

#

i don't think anyone knows where perse is

potent river
#

He might not fully trust them, or at least is more focused on getting out first

whole mulch
#

Meg hints that once the cat is out of the bag it will bring Olympus to start some kind of fight with the underworld

atomic forge
#

idk if they know or not

#

maybe some do

barren perch
#

maybe they didn't know that hades kidnapped her in the first place, and thought she just disappeared

atomic forge
#

they sent Hermes down to get her back, they knew

barren perch
#

didn't see that bit

#

hm

atomic forge
#

Isn't mentioned in the game

#

i dont think its safe to assume normal greek mythology applies

#

because there are a lot of changes already

whole mulch
#

Hermes is also notably absent from the cast

atomic forge
#

In the game it seems she decided to leave on her own accord, thus the "I'm leaving you" letter

#

yeah its impossible to say who is gone cos early access and who is gone because they just arent in the game

whole mulch
#

Which is strange because one of his roles was as a psychopomp, leading the dead to the underworld

#

God I spent way too much time in here just speculating on this game but I am just so excited to see what is next

barren perch
#

eee

atomic forge
#

same same

barren perch
#

it's nice to actually talk to people about these games tbh

#

didn't have a lot of that with pyre, even if i was gushing with other people who'd finished it too

atomic forge
#

I have one friend irl who loves SG games, but she's not so keen on roguelikes/hacknslash

#

so idk if she'll be too into hades, but hopefully

whole mulch
#

It still feels like a SG Games is the thing

hard shale
#

It's surprising that a game with Zagreus even exists

barren perch
#

zag is useful in that he's obscure as hell and has no immediate connotations

atomic forge
#

yeah

#

same with kratos lol

#

but he's super different to his real myth version

#

I mean zag is too

hard shale
#

Unlike his sisters

barren perch
#

meg ❤

whole mulch
#

I do like how Meg slowly turns her pre fight banter into are we doing this again already

atomic forge
#

yeah now for me she's like

#

talking in a way that implies there's no hard feelings and this is just how it is and neither of us can change it

potent river
#

I mean, constantly dying to a kid with a bow shooting multi shotlove arrows at mach 3 dashing between every shot kinda wears you down after a couple of runs.

atomic forge
#

except for zag not running away

#

but I mean maybe she does want him to get out

#

who can say

whole mulch
#

I think the serial nature and the fact this has things to guess off of makes this game kind of special in a way

#

If this had been just the SG Games thing of their own world there would be a whole lot less to go off of

barren perch
#

i don't think she cares if zag leaves or not, she wouldn't be there to stop him if hades hadn't ordered her to

queen sierra
#

I’ve never played a rouge lite in my life but supergiant games has turned me...... I just love their games so much

potent river
#

I almost don't want to play until full release, so I can enjoy everything at once.
Almost, though. This game is too fun to put down.

barren perch
#

this game makes me want to buy dead cells

potent river
#

I need to buy that too.

whole mulch
#

I kind of like the adventure of being on the front lines of experiencing this game

ebon cradle
#

this game is mega fun and relaxing

atomic forge
#

i couldnt get into dead cells, i usually love rougelites though

#

Dead Cells is fun

potent river
#

Might as well get it for switch, so I have more than one game on it.

ebon cradle
#

my focus and ability to care much about games has dwindled

atomic forge
#

it was fun until it wasnt, which is what killed it for me

ebon cradle
#

so games like this are super fun

#

I have 100 hours on necrodander

atomic forge
#

meanwhile I have 1000+ hours on isaac and am still hype for the next expansion

ebon cradle
#

rogue lites......

#

I wanted to get isaac but controls didn't click with me for some reason

atomic forge
#

isaac requires a little investment tbh

#

a little more than most I mean

#

I don't like the look/aesthetic of Isaac, so never played it.

#

to really get a lot of stuff unlocked and open up the game/understand the deep strategies

potent river
#

I remember back when I was excited for Wrath of the Lamb

ebon cradle
#

I love this rogue lite tho

atomic forge

potent river
#

You make me sad

barren perch
#

atomic forge
#

bruh im not listening to the same thing for 1000 hours haha

whole mulch

I love mythology in general and super giant games so I kind of knew I was buying this

ebon cradle
#

aaaah not yet

atomic forge
#

barren perch
#

thats a good one

whole mulch
#

Risk of Rain is super good

barren perch
#

sequel in development too

atomic forge
#

There's also Dungeons of Dreadmoore for a more classical turn-based rouge-like

potent river
#

Well I got to sleep now, work in the morning and all that. You guys have a goodnight!

whole mulch

Laters

ebon cradle

I kinda had bad stigma for ssg games cause one gross homophobic dude in one server 8 am in played them

potent river
#

Or morning, wherever you are

barren perch
#

night snek!

ebon cradle
#

but i picked up pyre and bastion and loved it

#

night night

whole mulch
#

Risk of Rain build that I ran with for sure was turning on glass+control then pulling out the blood vial from the first box I see

atomic forge
#

The risk of rain sequel looks so cool

#

Really hype for it

whole mulch
#

Definitely gonna try getting co-op up for risk of rain 2

#

also tina/crow that sucks that someone like that put you off the games like that

barren perch
#

yeah that's really annoying

atomic forge
#

Yeah for sure

#

The overwatch community put me off pretty hard

#

Well the in game community that is

#

Out of the game a lot of cool fan stuff has been made which is always nice to see

whole mulch
#

It is nice this community is so welcoming back to rampant speculation or we all speculated out for the night/day

#

What if the true underworld was the internet

atomic forge
#

Zag is just trying to get through his dads content filter

#

At least let the boy watch YouTube hades cmon

#

And yeah it really is nice

whole mulch
#

Hades was just waiting fo- wait that joke might actually spark some arguements

atomic forge
#

lol

lunar kiln
#

Hades actually asked for a sundial to be installed in hell but it never happened

ebon cradle
#

zag just wants faster internet

whole mulch
#

How would that even work

ebon cradle
#

honestly can relate

atomic forge
#

Same tbh

whole mulch
#

Everyone wants faster internet

atomic forge
#

Western Australian internet is uuh

#

Sub par shall we say

lunar kiln
#

Meg blocked zag on facebook

whole mulch
#

Nah she still has him added but stopped following him a long time ago

true panther
#

But she's friends with Dusa who reposts Zag all the time

lunar kiln
#

^ this

whole mulch
#

Now I want a social media au for these characters

lunar kiln
#

Dusa always asks him if she can repost his stuff

whole mulch
#

Orpheus would have a bunch of old videos of his songs but refuse to put out any more claiming he lost his passion for it after his girlfriend Eurydice moved away

hard shale
#

The full game can't come any closer

royal hawk
#

I've been backreading this channel during breaks and I'm happy to see that I'm not the only one who thought that Homer is the narrator in the game 😅

lunar kiln
#

Orpheus secretly owns a soundcloud account

hard shale
#

So many love songs...

queen sierra
#

my first thought was that it was chronos narrating, but homer would be sick too.... someone mentioned it could be Kronos, which could also be super interesting

royal hawk
#

I think Homer makes so much sense because they also quote him on the patch notes

whole mulch
#

I think this channel is just us throwing theories and stupid ideas for things

queen sierra
#

can Orpheus play wonderwall tho

whole mulch
#

He was the one who wrote wonderwall

#

Oasis just stole it from him

ebon cradle
#

musa and Meg are good ship change my mind

lunar kiln
#

Hades follows his son in every social media possible and dislikes everything he posts

whole mulch
#

Totally viable ship

lunar kiln
#

Also yes

queen sierra
#

why would I boo you? you’re right

lunar kiln
#

Speak the truth

whole mulch
#

I totally want to ship Achilles and Zag

royal hawk
#

and I'm so happy it exists, I was so sad when I finished Pyre and no one was theorizing anymore, at least now I can actually be more active and take part in all the theories and headcanons 😊

ebon cradle
#

honestly if YOU had a crush on cute girl and your ex boyfriend was her crush you would be extra motivated to kick his ass

queen sierra
#

I gave Artemis a gift and she’s so uncomfortable “let’s get back to hunting now, okay?”

ebon cradle
#

I love her so much

hard shale
#

need Orion

whole mulch
#

Oh yeah I definitely want more Artemis interactions

lunar kiln
#

Secret joke fight where they team up to kick your butt

ebon cradle
#

hurting musa deals 100 damage to you

#

because psychic damagw

queen sierra
#

Artemis: I would prefer not to

whole mulch
#

Artemis being a fan of Achilles is great

lunar kiln
#

Hitting meg carrying dusa is like hitting someone with glasses

#

You cant

queen sierra
#

I’d rather lay down my weapons and voluntarily lose an op run than fight dusa

ebon cradle
#

same

royal hawk
#

I once said about Pyre let's ship the Reader with everyone and people didn't take that well so I'm kind of scared about it but let's ship Zagreus with everyone

queen sierra
#

hades has been going about this all wrong. he just needed to send dusa to stop us

hard shale
#

@royal hawk Why not

lunar kiln
#

I just came up with something terrible

whole mulch
#

Okay can we say no shipping zag with the dog?

royal hawk
#

Fine

#

Not that into furries, no

lunar kiln
#

All those pots and pillars we break in tartarus

#

Dusa cleans up after us

whole mulch
#

Nah more like it would be weird

hard shale
#

Well Zeus did people as a swan

royal hawk
#

Yeah yeah I agree

#

Omg

#

Tru

ebon cradle
#

no

#

I am a furry kinda lowkey and no kissing cerberus

#

only

#

kiss anuvis

whole mulch
#

Cerberus is too much of a good dog that I just can't see it honestly

ebon cradle
#

anubis

#

kiss anubis

royal hawk
#

Dusa gives you a feather duster so you can do her job for her

whole mulch
#

Why not set?

ebon cradle
#

exchange student from Egypt who is learning about underworld

royal hawk
#

Yeah, Cerberus is like Ti'zo, good boi, not for shipping

whole mulch
#

I loved Tizo

queen sierra
#

I’m fairly sure if Zach tried to date Cerberus hades would actually pop a blood vessel

#

auto correct that’s not his name

ebon cradle
#

what if zag seduced zeus

lunar kiln
#

Zachary prince of the underworld

royal hawk
#

I'm still sad thinking that you most likely will have to fight Cerberus at some point 😭

whole mulch
#

Ti'zo was definitely one of my fav players in pyre

royal hawk
#

But also I'm looking forward to his fight having a remix of Thrash Pack

hard shale
#

Zachreus

atomic forge
#

ti'zo was cool but I cant get past the starting 3

#

love them to bits

whole mulch
#

The starting three were good but they didn't stick around long

lunar kiln
#

Lets move to the pyre chat

atomic forge
#

well

ebon cradle
#

I semi hope for good or at least bitersweet ending

atomic forge
#

thats highly dependent lol

whole mulch
#

Bitter sweet is my bet

royal hawk
#

It's SGG, it's gonna be bittersweet

#

I'm already readying myself for feels with Hades as a character

hard shale
#

Plus it's Greek

true panther
#

Greek mythology is not exactly known for happy endings

#

they invented tragedy after all

whole mulch
#

I would hope for an option to earn your happy ending

lunar kiln
#

Tragic sitcom

royal hawk
#

At best it's gonna be you escape but by doing so you break everything or there's truly no escape

ebon cradle
#

god same

#

I am hoping for

whole mulch
#

Yeah...but w/e the journey is going to be super interesting

ebon cradle
#

golden ending

true panther
#

on the other hand, Sisyphus seems to be doing just fine

ebon cradle
#

still bittersweet

#

but

#

honestly maybe if hades accepted his place as underworld ruler and tried to make it a better place

royal hawk
#

I mean if Sisyphus gives up on pushing the boulder then it's basically like he has no punishment anymore

ebon cradle
#

maybe everyone wouldn't be so depressed

whole mulch
#

Well I think Hades is trying his best

royal hawk
#

Zag could be that person and try to make the underworld a better place, instead he wants to leave

ebon cradle
#

I dont really like hades? he is very much abusive dad and mega bitter

lunar kiln
#

More mega bitter than abusive

royal hawk
#

I don't see him that abusive, he just seems... resentful? not sure if I'm using the right adjective

#

yeye

#

bitter works

whole mulch
#

I feel Hades has too much going on

queen sierra
#

truthfully, I don’t know how you could be happy with your place as underworld ruler, when not only are u hated and feared by mortals and ridiculed by ur brothers and peers, but they also forced you into the role that you are forced to fill for all of eternity, and eventually it drives even your wife away from you and eventually your son

royal hawk
#

I sympathize with him, honestly, but I always sympathize with villains so...

queen sierra
#

I think it’s interesting hades is surrounded by people who leave him, when he, ironically, is the only one who CANT leave

lunar kiln
#

Btw how did persephone leave hell

queen sierra
#

hades can’t leave the underworld no matter how much he wants to, and I think that’s really sad

#

SHRUG EMOJI

whole mulch
#

Did she even make it out is the question

lunar kiln
#

Did she just waltz to the surface

ebon cradle
#

yes

#

she was a dread queen of underworld

#

After all

whole mulch
#

They never said she made it up from the underworld

queen sierra
#

maybe that’s why he’s so bitter towards zag? that he can even attempt and have the freedom to want to leave and try to, when he’s bound to his duty and incapable of being anything other than the king of Hell

royal hawk
#

Oh yeah true, I thought about it too, how did she leave? 🤔

#

In the myth isn't she delivered by Hermes so that things can grow again in the surface?

true panther
#

Well, Hades himself was never potrayed as evil, but he was rather cold, asocial, and stern

ebon cradle
#

I mean her mother is the goddess of earth

lunar kiln
#

One of the npcs (nyx I think?) assures she still lives

whole mulch
#

Yeah

ebon cradle
#

she got stuck out of bounds

#

on one of. levels

whole mulch
#

I feel like Nyx might have kidnapped her for her own plots

royal hawk
#

She clipped through

hard shale
#

She's stuck in Chaos maybe?

whole mulch
#

to kick off all of this plot

strong musk
#

IIRC the instance Hades left Hell he got shot by Hercule

#

In the myths

ebon cradle
#

wasn't hades trapped outside of underworld by sisyphos

visual laurel
#

Hey does anyone have Athena's full codex text on hand?

#

I'm editing the wiki

ebon cradle
#

god thats rude

lunar kiln
#

Im on phone

whole mulch
#

Or captured by Sisyphus depending on telling of that myth

queen sierra
#

I feel like hades is more a product of his situation, and Persephone leaving has exasperated his already present bitterness and hatred towards his brothers and the underworld as a whole

true panther
#

I'm pretty sure Demeter will be involved in this whole Persephone business

queen sierra
#

though we don’t really know how he acted when Persephone was around soooo

#

It’s hard to know if he’s always been like this

ebon cradle
#

what if

#

underworld is connected to hades and his moods

lunar kiln
#

Do those statues in front of the house in the starting room represent persephone

ebon cradle
#

could be

royal hawk
#

One thing though, isn't it curious that in the letter she's like "take care of Cerberus, I'm going to miss him" but says nothing about Zag, like come on, you say you're gonna miss the dog but not your son??

visual laurel
#

I like the sisyphus myth where sisyphus told his wife that, after he died, she should throw his naked body out into the agora to show her love
then he went to persephone as soon as he died like "can you BELIEVE what my wife did to my body?! i don't deserve to be down here, after that kind of treatment." and persephone agreed lmfao

strong musk
#

So what you're saying is, Hades is living in his own silent hell

#

Okay I'm sorry

ebon cradle
#

ok on one hand MOOD

whole mulch
#

Now that you mention it yeah...

queen sierra
#

hades is just my icon

ebon cradle
#

on other hand it's definitely strange that she doesn't mention zag

lunar kiln
#

This is Hades' hell and we're all livin in it

ebon cradle
#

GOD

lunar kiln
#

Or rather dyin

visual laurel
#

Welcome To The House Of Hades

ebon cradle
#

I still suspect chronos messing with timeliness shaenigans

whole mulch
#

Like how long has Persephone been gone if Zag is fully grown adult

visual laurel
#

how fast do gods grow up

true panther
#

Some were born adults

royal hawk
#

He might look like that but be centuries old, who knows

lunar kiln
#

Zag is like, physically in his 20s

visual laurel
#

yeah exactly lol

ebon cradle
#

zeus grew up pretty fnast

true panther
#

Athena was born an adult, I'm pretty sure

ebon cradle
#

this reminds me of rincewind from disc world and "my mom left us before I was born"

#

thats zags situation maybe lol

royal hawk
#

Like we know it's after the trojan war but we don't have an estimate time of when the story happens

true panther
#

probably has something to do with gods giving birth in rather unconventional ways

#

like splitting someone's head with an axe

royal hawk
#

Might be happening right now 👀 that's why there's fast food

whole mulch
#

Zag seems to have grown up slow since he was trained by Achilles, raised by Nyx and, had a thing with Meg long enough ago they both talk about it in the distant past

strong musk
#

Charon is the time traveler here

#

Hence the fast food

#

We cracked the code

ebon cradle
#

what if zagreus was and hear me out supposed to relieve hades on his throne

#

and now he is leaving

#

so there goes that hope of ever being free

whole mulch
#

I want actual charon dialogue

royal hawk
#

I want to see how Charon actually looks

strong musk
#

I get the feeling he'll stay hooded

whole mulch
#

I want to see artemis

strong musk
#

For the boatman of Styx aestethic

#

Ya know

whole mulch
#

I wouldn't mind Charon to be hooded but give me Artemis

ebon cradle
#

gonna be honest

royal hawk
#

I imagine something like Jaina's father in the Daughter of the Sea video (for those who know what I'm talking about)

ebon cradle
#

this game has massive undertale vibes

whole mulch
#

Possibly

ebon cradle
#

idk just reminds me a lot

royal hawk
#

I already see myself having a crush on Artemis, she was my favorite goddess

frozen jolt
#

the hooded portraits are placeholders but it doesn’t mean some characters won’t stay hooded

ebon cradle
#

artemis is so cute she is my favourite goddess

whole mulch
#

The team that Tobyfox wants for Deltarune is Super Giant Games

ebon cradle
#

god ye

#

it would be honestly freaking awesome

#

the power of mean girls (Meg) shines from within you

strong musk
#

Pretty sure the heat death of the universe will happen instantly if that happens

whole mulch
#

Nah a second big bang would happen

royal hawk
#

worth

ebon cradle
#

Toby fox needs bethesda

strong musk
#

We're all still in Death Stranding

hard shale
#

Great the game universes are bleeding together

whole mulch
#

Can we get Suda51 and Swewry also on this?

#

I did not feel like actually figuring out how to spell his name sorry

strong musk
#

Swery

lunar kiln
#

Apparently theres a big war going on in the surface which is why 2 of the 3 furies are gone

royal hawk
#

I didn't get that line

lunar kiln
#

Its from sisyphus

royal hawk
#

But wouldn't that make Ares and Athena quite busy?

#

Mostly Ares I guess

whole mulch
#

I think Meg also references it

lunar kiln
#

Ye

royal hawk
#

Also with a war there's way more people dying which only gives more work to Hades, I suppose

strong musk
#

I don't recall a major war after the Trojan one

#

Interesting

ebon cradle
#

Alexander the great

whole mulch
#

Well the Aenid is a thing?

ebon cradle
#

aenid is a bad fanfic

#

but ye true

#

I do think it's Macedonian wars

whole mulch
#

Aenid is basically a copy paste of homer's work

strong musk
#

Odyssey was a trip

#

In all senses of the word

ebon cradle
#

aenid is fix-it au fanfic

#

qq

#

whoops sorry

whole mulch
#

If I had to guess the war it might be whichever one the romans took Greece?

#

I am not crazy knowledgeable about actual history so my guesses there are just maybe this

atomic forge
#

there wasnt really a big one where that happened, just over time

#

romans just attritioned out a lot of places

ebon cradle
#

hm

atomic forge
#

who can say though

ebon cradle
#

I just want Alexander the great reference owo

#

love that dude

whole mulch
#

Can we also get a Leonidas reference?

#

I should get some sleep

royal hawk
#

1 pm here, timezooones =_=

strong musk
#

More like dimezones

queen sierra
#

there being a war would explain why hades is so pissed off his son is trying to run away from home instead of helping

#

it’s... one AM for me lmao

strong musk
#

Doesn't look like anyone's brigading hell tho

whole mulch
#

Well they still have people from the trojan war to process

#

According to Achilles at least

#

That might be him boasting though

royal hawk
#

Maybe Hades just doesn't want his son to get hurt in the war 😊 by killing him over and over

strong musk
#

I wonder if going to the surface will lead to some ACT 2 like deal

whole mulch
#

Gonna try to get sleep bye folks it was fun chatting

atomic forge
#

bye byee

royal hawk
#

niight

atomic forge
#

sleep well my dood

strong musk
#

In Diablo 1 once you reah a certain elevl of delving you get a shortcut to said zone and new area on the map with said shortcut

atomic forge
#

and hm that'd be cool

strong musk
#

I'm just thinking out loud tho

royal hawk
#

enter the gungeon also has shortcuts

atomic forge
#

i loved the "second act" structure they've done before in other games

royal hawk
#

that might happen in Hades too

atomic forge
#

to not spoil specific games people may have not played haha

#

and yeah depends how much power creep there is

#

if there ends up being a heap then shortcuts might be a welcome addition

honest coral
#

There's almost definitely a third area

#

My guess is hydra will be nerfed somewhat when the 3rd area comes out

#

Other than QoL stuff with the camera in that fight

#

Either that or it won't be nerfed and there will be power creep from updates

atomic forge
#

there's almost definitely like 4-7 areas

hard shale
#

Maybe instead of a boon, Hermes lets you go forward or back rooms with random set numbers

atomic forge
#

6 would be a good guess ive seen others make

#

i'd love to see more boons that arent chance to get god boons too

#

and im sure more will come

#

as more characters are introduced

hard shale
#

Like would you go back to stack more boons, or skip some rooms

honest coral
#

Hopefully Sisyphus, Nyx, Charon and Artemis will get proper sprites instead of recolours of eachother

#

and Orpheus I think

atomic forge
#

a rewind to get a reroll of the boons available would be cool

#

people will definitely all get new art

honest coral
#

A way to deny a boon for a later more powerful upgrade would also be nice

hard shale
#

For strategy layers

frozen jolt
#

@honest coral they are placeholders.

honest coral
#

Yeah, I assumed so alma

queen sierra
#

curious, what sorts of enemies do you think will be future bosses? I for one think it’d be cool if hades was the final boss before we get to leave the underworld bur im curious what other ppl think lmao

frozen jolt
#

It’s in the faq as well btw

honest coral
#

yep, ok

frozen jolt
#

someone said Cerberus earlier and that’s cool but also I absolutely don’t want that because he’s my boy :((

atomic forge
#

logically he'd be the guarding the gate still

#

but idk how much they're changing that lore

queen sierra
#

I DONT WANNA MAKE ZAG HIT HIS DOG........

atomic forge
#

because he's at home a lot of the time haha

honest coral
#

Seeing the other furies would be nice, but maybe not as bosses

#

Or if they're a boss, both furies at once

atomic forge
#

they'd be a cool O&S fight

honest coral
#

So basically mantis lords from hollow knight

queen sierra
#

zags mentioned the asophodel being dangerous even while Cerberus isn’t guarding it to cerb before in a conversation, so I assume there’s a reason he’s not out there all the time?

#

maybe cerbs retired............

frozen jolt
#

I think he’s old now

queen sierra
#

CERB PUPPIES???

frozen jolt
#

there’s a line about him mellowing with age iirc..?

atomic forge
#

yeah kinda like mantis lords would be neat

queen sierra
#

does that mean he has a son/daughter out there instead because dear god I want three headed puppies

atomic forge
#

not sure if any of them really age normally lol

queen sierra
#

Cerberus is all hades has left he just wants him close to home ;w;

atomic forge
#

zag is probably well old, just not comparatively to the other gods

queen sierra
#

the other gods @ zag: you’re like, twelve

runic terrace
#

zag: im NINETEEN AND THREE QUARTERS (centuries)
everyone else: is that a gremlin???? whatever just nobody feed that thing after midnight

hey do you think they eat the whole pomegranate seed or spit them out everywhere for dusa to mop up

frozen jolt

I feel like it’s the whole point of like. The infernobombers

#

Like they drop bombs when they die

queen sierra

god I hope the former for Dusas sake

frozen jolt

But it being easier to avoid would be nice

atomic forge

yeah but you cant dodge them if they land on you in slow mo when you beat the room

frozen jolt

wait

which should not happen

frozen jolt

Do people not eat the seeds?

queen sierra

consume the entire Pom. no wastefulness in THIS house of hades

not to be a Pom elitist.... but.......... the Correct way of eating it is eating the seed

zags a seed croncher. gets it from his mother

ornate siren

Canberra is the land of uncertainty. Actually, maybe it's certainty. Nah, it's definitely somewhere in the middle

queen sierra
#

ambrosia now banned in the underworld. entirely pomegranate based diet only

frozen jolt

ornate siren
#

Isn't ambrosia already banned? I'm pretty sure Meg is just annoyed at first, so I have no reason to assume she's lying about it being contraband

runic terrace
#

eats a pomegranate may my attack do as much damage as the seeds in the pomegranate 🙏

queen sierra
#

I assumed she was just giving zag a hard time... or maybe zag specifically isn’t allowed ambrosia because he’s a Bad Boy

ornate siren

#

HDKSKG NOOO

queen sierra
#

the skin of the pomegranate will make you strong... the seeds... will also make you strong

#

Hades has A+ parenting compared to his siblings

queen sierra
#

throw the pomegranate at meg/hydra for a one hit kill

#

zag: I’m going to go to Olympus! At least there they’ll accept me!

#

The many demigods from Zeus: eyeroll

ornate siren
#

No no no I already said it's 1dPomegranate damage. The Hydra can probably take like 8 pomegranate's, and meg can take as many as Zag is willing to give her before he realises it's not going to get her to go out with him again

#

Have you maxed out meg's hearts?

lunar kiln
#

can zag eat a whole pomegranate without swallowing the seeds

ornate siren
#

It's great

#

You can't eat a whole pom without swallowing the seeds

lunar kiln
#

he then uses the seeds as a weapon

ornate siren
#

Because then you wouldn't eat a whole pom

hard shale
#

Zag has a talented mouth then

runic terrace
#

pom seed gun

queen sierra
#

not yet..... I have her one and all the other times I beat her she didn’t show up or she was in a conversation with someone

hard shale
#

Phrasing

lunar kiln
#

meg running away from zag spitting pom seeds at her

queen sierra
#

easy mode: tying a knot in a cheery stem with ur tongue
hard mode: swallowing a Pom without the seeds

atomic forge
#

took me so long to get the last one, she kept talking to nyx and dusa and being unavailable for gifts

#

because I assume zag just isn't man enough to gift any of them anything in the presence of others haha

ornate siren
#

I clear her enough that I'm getting past her most runs by far

#

So it wasn't too bad when that happened

lunar kiln
#

trial of the gods but it's trial of the household where one gets mad when you give the bottle to the other

atomic forge
#

same, but hydra seems to require a pretty good build atm

#

which sometimes I get near him and im like nup

#

not happening haha

queen sierra
#

me when I save an ambrosia for meg and she doesn’t even show up: :’(((

ornate siren
#

Meg vs Dusa would be very sad :(

lunar kiln
#

atomic forge
#

queen sierra
#

ornate siren
lunar kiln
#

you think i'm joking but i'm actually half-serious with that entire skelly thing

queen sierra
#

I still need to give Zeus his gift for his keepsake........... he keeps ghosting me

lunar kiln
#

SAME

queen sierra
#

Zeus I know ur a petty jerk but PLEASE ur the last one I need

ornate siren
#

I have all gods double gifted

queen sierra
#

the only times he’s showed up are in asphodel with a skull room and like...... no thanks

#

I’ve heard horror stories of the boat room I choose life

lunar kiln
#

what would you do for a keepsake

frozen jolt
#

I gifted aphrodite twice or thrice but not the rest of the gods

ornate siren
#

The boat room is actually super fun

#

It's my favourite room in asphodel

queen sierra
#

IM SO BAD AT GAMES THO ID NEVER SURVIVE

lunar kiln
#

boatroom is actually easy when you get the hang of it

#

when

ornate siren
#

Yeah, it's pretty free tbh

#

And sometimes it's forced

frozen jolt
#

the easiest strat for it...... is to skip it

ornate siren
#

So practice it when you can

lunar kiln
#

cowardice

frozen jolt
#

I never claimed to be brave

atomic forge
#

its only worth it for a good boon

queen sierra
#

cowardice......... but life

frozen jolt
#

Being a coward got me to the hydra

ornate siren
#

I do it because I know otherwise I'll get a survival room and lose 50hp

lunar kiln
#

befitting of someone with an aphrodite profile picture

ornate siren
#

Oi stop insulting me

lunar kiln
#

dont take that seriously i was just looking for an excuse shadefear

queen sierra
#

in this house we love and respect Aphrodite

lunar kiln
#

your fave is a thot

frozen jolt
#

please don’t call her that though

queen sierra
#

also both Artemis AND Aphrodite has asked me to tell Achilles he’s great so is achilles just..... that popular with the gods

lunar kiln
#

alright

queen sierra
#

ALL WOMEN ARE QUEENS BELGO

ornate siren
#

Aphrodite is basically trying to seduce you and then being jelous when you like Meg

#

She also has some KaijuSultry comments lmao

lunar kiln
#

that one line where she wants to ""introduce"" me to a bunch of men/women

frozen jolt
#

she is the goddess of love

#

she’s flirty but I don’t really feel like she’s trying to seduce zag

lunar kiln
#

oh certainly not

ornate siren
#

Idk

runic terrace
#

shes tryin to set him up!!

#

"cmonnnnn zag lets get you a partner"

lunar kiln
#

zag calling aphrodite for love advice

ornate siren
#

There's that one, there's also one that's really well then

lunar kiln
#

that one with the """outings"""

ornate siren
#

(she also legit gets jelous of Meg)

frozen jolt
#

she gets jealous of everyone lol

#

well almost everyone. I think she had one positive line when I accepted another boon from someone that.... wasn’t artemis

#

probably Athena

atomic forge
#

i love how the other gods always warn against Poseidon

lunar kiln
#

one time she said something about me, suggesting i shouldnt make any sudden moves on artemis

#

🤔

atomic forge
#

and its like he's a bro but.. seems like there's something we dont know about him

ornate siren
#

"Tsk, you're in no condition for an outing with me, dearest. Though, perhaps you might recover from your hardships with my aid?"
This one is just like Hmm

lunar kiln
#

there's another one where she mentions an outing

#

during a trial of the gods

frozen jolt
#

Poseidon calls everyone crusty and it’s funny so I like him

atomic forge
#

lol

frozen jolt
#

I mean I kinda took outing in the literal sense there

lunar kiln
#

it's more explicit in the other line

visual laurel
#

aphrodite LOVES setting people up
she loves setting people up way more than getting with them herself

#

that's like, kind of her thing
