as I slowly get into artemis and apollo, I feel myself going mad because they truly are one of a kind.
you know. I headcanon that lleu has blue-ish black hair and goewin has a warm toned, brown-ish or red-ish dark hair. why? goewin's hair is brown-ish/red-ish black because the sun loves her. it gives her the warmth and the rays of light that only ever shine on her. she is not in the cage of her grief. she is scorching like fire and beautiful like spring blooms. she is free to wherever the sun touches. her fate and her destiny decided by birth. but lleu? his hair reflects the cage of moonlight. the void of darkness enlightened only by the stars and the moon. his world limited only to the taverns of his birth. he is caged and melancholic in his treacherous state. his fate and destiny decided since birth. he is the ending where goewin has her beginning.
People will be like I love Greek mythology but I hate everything that involves incest, infidelity, violence, slavery, misogyny, undeserved suffering, questionable relationships, ethically dubious heroes and gods,and morality that is foreign to me.
as a corpse loves a vulture (you are the only person who has noticed i am dead) as a corpse loves a vulture (you're going to consume me and i can't let that happen) as a corpse loves a vulture (you are drawn specifically to the rotten parts of me) as a corpse loves a vulture (to be "smitten" means to be struck down)
