Acteon never intended to see Diana naked but still was torn to bits by his own hounds. Among the high gods, even accidents call for amusement: when deity’s outraged, mischance is no excuse. 
Ovid Tristia II.504-07

La venganza de Diana
          “La mitología griega está plagada de venganzas, más o menos merecidas, aunque en la mayoría de los casos terriblemente crueles. Los dioses imponían castigos por conductas que consideraban impropias, a veces, para toda la eternidad. Hoy nos vamos a hacer eco de la historia de Diana y Acteón. La diosa virgen, hija de Zeus y hermana gemela de Apolo, vivía en los bosques y se dedicaba a la…

Diane sortant du bain (Diana Bathing), François Boucher, 1742
Boucher was one of the most famous and appreciated painters of the reign of Louis XV. His works in soft colors, theatrical staging and sinuous forms are closely associated with the rococò style that spread in France in the architecture and decorative arts of the first half of the 18th centuryCardinal elements for the painting of Bouchers is love, the art of courtship as a mundane rite.
With him Deities such as Venus and Pan are the main protagonist of his painting. Mithological, pastoral and historic themes are interpreted according with the ideal elegant lifestales, frivoulus and aristocratic of his contemporary society.
He became the favorite painter of Madame de Pompadou.
His style tends to the exaltation of beauty and erotism: his major works have bourgeois room, alcove and boudoirs in wich the authors depics the naughty atmospheres, dayly gestures or minimal aspects, but with always refinement and great tonal rendering, especially with complexion.
In Diana bathing the feminine nude is carefully exibited in an intimate gestures and pictorial rendering of the satin skin is aimed to enter the imagination of the spectators through the senses, making a sort of complicity between us and the two women. It's also a study on the ideal beuty of the human body. The pearly skin is in contrast with the green shades that dominates the painting. Diana forms a diagonal that extends into the blue hanging.
He rapresents Diana, the roman goddess of hunting, the moon and protector of wild animals and nature. She was the twin og the god Apollo. We can be sure about her identity because she is depicted with her identifying object, such as the bow, the quiver and the small crescent moon on her forehead. She is accompanied by a young girl who is helping her exiting the bath, a relaxed moment after a hunt. There are also hunting dogs on the left. I like to think this are the previus moment before the goddes discover Acteon spying on her.

Diana's Bath by Louis Devedeux
Over births presiding, and thyself a maid, to labour pangs imparting ready aid: dissolver of the zone, and wrinkled care, fierce huntress, glorying in the sylvan war: swift in the course, in dreadful arrows skilled, wandering by night, rejoicing in the field: of manly form, erect, of bounteous mind, illustrious Daimon, nurse of humankind:

The Hunt (previously known as Diana and Her Nymphs) by Robert Burns
immortal, earthly, bane of monsters fell, 'tis thine, blest maid, on woody mounts to dwell: foe of the stag, whom woods and dogs delight, in endless youth you flourish fair and bright. O universal queen, august, divine, a various form, Kydonian power, is thine.

Diana and Acteon by Joanna Chrobak
Dread guardian Goddess, with benignant mind, auspicious come, to mystic rites inclined; give earth a store of beauteous fruits to bear, send gentle peace, and health with lovely hair, and to the mountains drive disease and care."

● OC x Idia Shroud – first meet.
POV oc-CÓRA●
Tumblr media
«– That day... It was PE classes, right? I don't remember properly... I don't remember dates or another unless things, only your golden eyes full of ichor. You ignored everything and everyone. You were in a cranky mood. Your flames glowed silent, they seemed unexpectedly cold...
Yeah, it wasn't a great idea to sneak out of my new "pretty" work and go round and round the college, but the library turned out to be a terribly boring place. So, I couldn't stay there any longer – wanna run away. I decided: if they had fired me, I would be fine with that.
Yet it was a lucky day: I wasn't fired. And I found you around the ash trees.
Don't know why, but... when I saw you, I suddenly felt like poor enchanted Acteon, who've seen Diana's naked immortal body. To see the goddes... Yes, it was something like that.
But you – you the azure flamed boy – wasn't a lunar child, right? You were not Diana's blood. You was – and you are – someone deeper.
Exuse my brave insolence, but since that day I decided that you would become mon petit dieu de la mort~»

Hera nickname possibilities part 2
Still focusing on Aimsey sorry, I have decided to delay the Guqqie one until we know what the hell is going on with A! Guqqie.
So... Some stuff happened, and it caused me to rethink several of the names and the importance of some themes, so here are a few I think things have changed for.
Required traits
Knowledge(curiosity as a fatal flaw preferably)- this is difficult, because it's actually surprisingly rare in myths, and often in different contexts as to what we're after.
Violence- this is self explanatory and fortunately very common in myths (in fact in even gcse level Greek and Latin there are at least 7 words for kill/die)
Space association- preferably with the moon, but that's a bit specific, and as most nicknames for Aimsey variants are masculine a bit difficult with Artemis/Diana's whole mainly female hunter group
Asterion
I still quite like this one, though for different reasons.
As I mentioned last time, Asterion is the Minotaur's birth name giving him an obvious link to violence, and as the stepson of king Minos he would have been a prince. There is also perhaps a knowledge connection with the labyrinth, although that one is perhaps a bit of a stretch. Also as the most popular translation of Asterion is literally " little star we have a convenient space connection as well.
Similarly, many people ( even in ancient Greece) felt that the Minotaur may have started off innocent but was warped by his father's rage and his imprisonment in the labyrinth. Which could perhaps mirror how little control A! Aimsey seems to have even in their own curiosity, which instead of reclaiming their own past and fate appears to be amounting to little more than a desperate grab for understanding and control.
Penthius
I hate Penthius.
He is such a a fucking perverted tyrannical foolish asshole and he deserved every bit of what he got " slave to my slaves" (δουλεύοντα δουλείαις ἐμαῖς) Penthius dear those are your people, as king caring for them is your duty you little shit.
But anyways
Firstly, as the main - mortal- character in the bachea he is part of a literal tragedy and we all know these idiots are doomed in every universe so unless they feel like being nice to us for once that's perfect.
If you don't know the story of the bachea I shall leave a summary of the plot at the bottom.
Despite Penthius's overall shittyness the themes fit perfectly. Firstly, as the cousin of Acteon he has a lovely little link with the moon - a very negative one, Artemis killed him, but so what- and with his constant war-mongering with violence as well. He is also royalty, and if you reinterpret his all around pervyness as curiosity that fits too.
He sought knowledge, and it killed him
Narcissus
This is a bit of a stretch here and I know it, but doesn't it just seem like the perfect, very derisive nickname for an alternate universe version of your ex who stabbed you?
Firstly, oh my God the knowledge association, Narcissus was cursed to die when he truly " knew himself" (A! Aimsey's urge to find out what happened to them?) and let's be honest that's probably the best case scenario for our lovely prince. He was literally killed by knowing too much, in this case about himself. Also, as much as we go on and on about the whole " narcissus rejected echo and she died because of his selfishness boo hoo!" Their deaths were very similar, if anything being simply an extension of the cycle of suffering cause by Zeus fucking around and someone else finding out. Oooh cycles... Could be parallel with A!Aimsey following in Tud's footsteps perhaps.
Again a bit of a stretch but I still kinda like it.
Bachea summary
First Dionysus arrives in Thebes and asks everybody to accept and worship him. Nearly everybody is fine with this but the king- Penthius- objects and refuses to believe in his godly power. In response, Dionysus mind controls all of the women of Thebes and they run off to the mountains and literally just sit there, not being a problem or anything.
Dionysus comes to talk to Penthius who tries repeatedly to threaten and insult the completely calm Dionysus. And reveals his preoccupation with sex and completely unfounded belief that the women are having a giant orgy on the mountain.
Penthius decides to attack the women but Dionysus "convinces" him otherwise ( oh look it's our good friend mind control again ) using his desire to be a voyeur to the non-existent mountain orgy. Dionysus then dresses Penthius for slaughter and parades him to the mountain where he is torn apart by his family.
Yay! I love happy endings.
