Haven't seen any good Caenis fic or headcannon so i am here to change it, i request for a dating headcannon with Caenis. She deserve much more love and recognition as one of the best tomboys in the entire fate francise

I think the reason why Caenis has pretty much no content like this is probably because of their(?) “Complicated” relationship with her own past, Poseidon and their own gender and because of that, it makes things complicated as a writer.

For my stance on it, I go with how I see it with Mordred in that it’s about how I get an ask or what the common consensus is, for both Caenis and Mordred that common consensus is “Complicated”.

That being said, I am in agreement that it really is a shame that there isn’t anything for Caenis.

Let’s fix that shall we?

Warnings: They/Them Pronouns for Caenis

NOW! YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND!!!

As a lover Caenis is… paradoxical…

They are intense but she is also timid with the affection they show.

They love you and you know that.

But Caenis is… afraid.

Caenis did not have the best life.

But you?

You are special.

Especially to them.

But they are not entirely sure how to approach you.

Especially in the early stages of the relationship.

They are very good at showing you that she cares.

But it’s what follows that is what they are bad at.

Showing you that they love you.

Caenis want’s to show you all of the feelings you make them feel.

All of the wonderful joy and the incredible calm they experience with you.

All of the excitement, the exhilaration, the comfort.

Everything.

But Caenis is afraid.

They would never admit it.

But they are.

The fear of losing you.

The very real possibility of that.

After all…

Caenis did not have a good life, and they hurt people as much as they hurt.

But, they do their best to get her point across.

To show you their love.

And if you accept it.

Accept them.

Accept everything about Caenis.

You will be privy to a person who is wholly obsessed with you.

Caenis is a person who takes an immense interest in you.

In your hobbies, your interests, your well being, everything.

After all…

Caenis did not have a good life.

But something good might have finally come their way.

Or that’s how they see it at least.

Okay so I just had to do some research into Tiresias, a generally minor character from Greek mythology. These days he's mostly known for being a blind prophet and for also turning into a woman for seven years as a punishment, but it turns out that there is so much more to their story than that. Because it generally gets confusing about what gender they are, I will be referring to Tiresias (T) as they/them for the sake of clarity.

So first of, the two main stories that are in modern day mythology books are these:

That T was born a man, came across two snakes having sex one day and hit them with a stick, which angered Hera so she turned T into a woman.

That T was born a man, and accidentally saw Athena bathing, so she blinded T and turned T into a woman, but felt bad so gave T the powers of prophecy.

But T may have a much more interesting and longer story than this, including not one, not two, but eight sex changes throughout their life. Now we don't know too much about the actual content of the story, as the only surviving records of the six to eight sex changes that T goes through are either from fragmentary works from Hesiod or pseudo-Hesiod, and a summary of the lost elegiac poem Tiresias by Ptolemaeus Chennus or Sostratos of Phanagoria.

There are references to the story of Tiresias in the Bibliotheca, however this one simply tells the Athena story, which isn't referenced by earlier writers.

However, reconstructing the story of Tiresias as told by Hesiod and Ptolemaeus Ch. we get something which looks like this.

T was originally born female, and early on in life Apollo took a fancy to T, and so went to have sex with them. T agreed on the condition that Apollo teach T how to play music first, which he did, but then T refused to sleep with Apollo, which made him made so he turned T into a man 'so T would feel the arrow of Eros'.

Having been turned into a man, T was asked to mediate an argument between Zeus and Hera, about who had more fun during sex, men or women. T said, having been both, said that women have more fun. As punishment, Hera turned T into a woman.

After been turned into a woman, T laughed at a statue of Hera and Hera turned T into a ugly old man as punishment.

Zeus took pity on T, and turned T into a woman at the 'bloom of her youth'

When T was bathing one day, a man called Glyphius tried to rape T, but T is too strong and strangles him. Since Glyphius was a favourite of Poseidon, he takes T to court who turn T into a man as punishment. They also took away T's skill at prophecy.

T attended the wedding of Peleus and Thetis (The parents of Achilles. This is the wedding which kicked off the trojan war) and judged an apparently unrelated beauty contest to the one with Eris and the golden apple, this one between Aphrodite and the Graces, Pasithea, Euphrosyne, and Cale. T chose Cale as the most beautiful, and as punishment Aphrodite changed T into an ugly old woman, though Cale took pity on T and gave them a really good head of hair.

[...] at this the goddess became angry and changed T into a mouse, and this is why mice eat very little, as they had once been an old lady, and also why mice are prophetic.

Now this gives us with some questions, but one main one. How did T become a prophet? Well, this ties into the version of the story with Athena, recounted by Ovid in his Metamorphoses. As a man, T sees Athena naked and makes T blind as a punishment. T's mother, the nymph Chariclo, begs Athena to change T back, but Athena refuses. Chariclo then washes T's ears, which gives T the power of prophecy, because T can now understand the cries of the Augury bird.

Another question is why, if T had judged that women have more fun during sex, would she turn T into a woman as punishment. Now you could argue a certain more assaulty reason, but the punishment makes much more sense if we put the story about the snakes before T mediates the argument.

The story goes that T, as a man, comes across a pair of snakes having sex and hits them with a stick, causing them to break apart. Hera objects to this, and so turns T into a woman as a punishment and T becomes a priestess of Hera. Then T mediates the argument, and T turns into a man. This isolated version of the story is one that survived to most modern mythologies.

Now there are several more things, but we really don't know too much about anything to do with Tiresias really, as the best work we know of which details his whole life is fragmentary at best and completely lost at worse. There are a ton of miscellaneous notes and facts about him. Apprently Zeus gave T a lifespan seven times longer than that of a human. He might've been blinded for knowing the secrets of the gods. He frequently communicated with the dead in order to tell his prophecies, and when Odysseus went to the land of the dead T was the only person that recognised him. Not even Odysseus' mother could recognise him without drinking a special drink. The word Tiresias was also a by-name for a prophet in ancient Greece. He was a reoccurring character in Greek Tragedies, most notably in the Bacchae, where he joins in the bacchic revels. He also assists Oedipus in the murder investigation of Laius, the previous king, and dies after drinking tainted water and getting shot by Apollo.

Tiresias is characterised as an extremely old prophet who communicates with birds and the dead, and has knowledge of the lives of Men, Women, and the gods.

That's fucking badass, and it pains me to know that'll we'll never know more than that.

Draw Caenis and Zenobia in your style!

Did my best! Zenobia has so much going on it's kind of exhausting to look at her lol. Also wanted to draw Caenis in that suit Azusa drew em in for the 6th anniversary since it looks so good haha.

every fate fan is wrong about mordred, yes they're trans but they're non-binary and use they/them pronouns and i WILL die on this hill

#jen talks too much #about fate #if you want a rowdy rude trans king with a feminine body that uses he/him pronouns caenus is right there!!

My favorite thing about FGO fandom on tumblr is seeing my mutuals and being like

“oh yes you are the diarmuid person”

“oh yes you are the authority on all things Koyanskaya”

“oh yes you are the Kama person with a hint of Caenus”

“Oh you are the Gawain person”

“Oh hello fellow Arthur enthusiast”

#fgo #fate grand order #maybe in the Arthur one in some eyes #also if you see this you know who you are ;)
