🖊 The Euphorian is incredibly indecisive on their hair color and changes it as often as they can

Oh you have no idea. This man literally uses at-will disguise self to change his hair color multiple times a day sometimes.

The Euphorion's build is so buck wild and it gets even worse the more you look at my plans for his level gains.

Like. Sorcerer 1/Hexblade Warlock 3/Bard 1 is insane enough. But then I'm taking Bard 2 before I Warlock 4 and 5 because I need Jack of All Trades or I'll die. And then at level 9 I need to pick between going for Sorcerer 2 to power my Metamagic Adept with Warlock slots vs Bard 3 for Expertise and a subclass feature (a decision that will depend probably on what's more relevant in the actual campaign when we play it) and also I wanna get up to Bard 5 and Sorcerer 3, and then I wanna fit more Warlock levels in there eventually and and and

Like. Genuinely. If someone else brought this character build to me and asked for advice on how to make it work my advice would just be Don't. Just Play Something Else.

But I'm insane so I have fun with this sort of thing lmfao I've been grinning the entire time as I've written this post because this man's build is just SO dumb and spicy. I WILL have melee attacks and ranged attacks and counterspelling and debuffing and buffing and teleportation and tanking and area control and utility and I will be at least okay at ALL of it[1] and NO ONE can stop me

To be at the bitch with an ancient goddess of destruction, Deaevidra is a surprise even for him. With sunglasses and a cold drink in hand, he is merely enjoying the day while the goddess is enjoying herself in the salty water. That is until a wicked idea appears in the mind of the warrior as he stares at the knots that are keeping her nipples hidden to everyone. As he takes sips from the cold drink, he thinks of all the bad things that can happen to him. But, as he is not a coward, he uses his ki to undo the knots that are holding the top of her two - piece bikini in place.

[— I guess I'll die now.]

Deaevidra was enjoying herself for sure, she was happy to be here with her favorite mortal who was currently basking in the sun of the public beach. She was dressed in a two peice bikini that was just right for the beach, it not only flaunted her body like she liked to do, but kept it hidden enough to keep things that should be hidden, hidden. Well, it did until someone decided to undo the knots of her top causing it to slip off into the water. With wide eyes she would crouch down into the water, hoping no one saw as an arm goes over to cover the front of her breasts before she reached for her top.

Once she had gotten her top back she would look at the one who she suspects to be the culprit, violet eyes now honing in on the saiyan basking in the sun and sipping his cold beverage; a gleem of mischief in her eyes as a smile forms on her face as a plan formulates in her head for later when they are together in private.

A soft little giggle as her devious little plan forms, it would be simple to get the things that she needed to do it as they where in the hotel room. A time he would have, she was sure to drain him dry and make his hips sore during such. What he just did made her horny, so perhaps she could convince him to do it with her in the change rooms?

"Today's going to be funner then I thought~."

flew like a moth to you [fic]

flew like a moth to you by Euphorion / @flightlesscrowkids​

“Tell you what,” said Yushi Huang. “I’ll make you a deal, Ling Wen Zhen Jun.”

Almost no one used her title at all, even fewer with respect. She couldn’t quite read Yushi Huang’s tone.

“If you can tell me exactly what this is,” she nodded to the creature curled in the corner, "and what it does, I will turn it in the moment we get back for tagging and proper categorization."

Ling Wen raised an eyebrow. So the enigmatic Rain Master already knew the creature's properties. "And if I don't?"   Yushi Huang smiled, infuriatingly gentle. "Admitting defeat so soon? How unlike you."

Ling Wen drew herself up and inclined her head, knowing herself to be rising to bait but seeing no real reason to resist. "I accept your terms."

Laocoön: The Suffering of a Trojan Priest & Its Afterlife

The sculpture group of Laocoön and His Sons, on display in the Vatican since its rediscovery in 1506, depicts the suffering of the Trojan prince and priest Laocoön (brother of Anchises) and his young sons Antiphantes and Thymbraeus and is one of the most famous and fascinating statues of antiquity. In his Natural History, Pliny the Elder states that the Laocoön, created by the eminent Rhodian sculptors Hagesander, Polydorus, and Athenodorus, “is a work of art to be preferred to any other painting or statuary” (36.37). Among art historians, the sculptural group has received near-universal acclaim ever since its rediscovery under questionable circumstances in 1506.

Is the statue famously shown since its discovery in the newly designed Belvedere Garden at the Vatican Palace actually the ancient sculpture mentioned by Pliny, or rather a clever Renaissance forgery? If the latter, who may have contrived this masterful deception? If the former, is it an original, or a marble copy of a Hellenistic bronze made for a Roman patron?

Beware of Greeks Bearing Gifts

In the most famous version of the story, as told by Virgil (70-19 BCE) in his Aeneid, Laocoön had warned his fellow citizens against the Greeks “even if they bear gifts,” and had tried to expose the true nature of the wooden horse by striking it with a spear (the wooden horse in question, of course, being the notorious “Trojan Horse”, left by the Greek forces on the coast so as to provide access into the city to the troops hidden inside the construction). When later two serpents emerged from the sea to kill the priest and his sons, the Trojans interpreted their horrific deaths as an act of divine retribution and promptly decided to move the wooden horse into the city, believing the contraption to be an offering to Minerva (Athena).

According to Arctinus of Miletus, the earliest tradition of the tragedy (surviving only through later citations), Apollo had sent the two serpents to kill Laocoön and only one of his sons; while the later author Quintus of Smyrna maintains that the serpents killed both sons but spared the father.

Servius, another late authority (c. 400 CE), tells us how Laocoön managed to incur the wrath of Apollo by sleeping with his wife before the cult statue in the god's temple. An even later source, the Byzantine scholar Tzetzes, adds that the scene of Laocoön's death took place in the very temple of the Thymbraean Apollo – appropriately setting the punishment at the scene of the crime.

The 5th-century BCE Greek playwright Sophocles produced a tragedy on the subject, of which only a few fragments survive in later citations. Apart from the sources mentioned above, Hellenistic poets Apollodorus and Euphorion, the historian Dionysius of Halicarnassus, the Roman novelist Petronius, the Latin fables attributed to Hyginus, and a few other fragments, all provide various details of the tragic story.

Despite this appearance in ancient literature from the post-Homeric to Byzantine traditions, artistic representations of Laocoön's suffering are few and far between. Depictions appear in some Greek vase paintings (5th to 4th centuries BCE) and in two frescoes at Pompeii (c. 25-75 CE). The marble statue group of Laocoön and His Sons, therefore remains the most exceptional portrayal of only a handful of ancient works illustrating the suffering of Laocoön.

2. Hello!!!!! This is my first time submitting an ask so I really hope I'm doing this right??? (I've been looking meticulously for specific fics that I like when I stumbled upon this blog!) Okay soーI'd really like to find fics of lwj kind of treating wy harshly or hurting wy's feelings on response towards wy just being friendly; then lwj has come to regret his action and tries to make amends through his lwj unique ways or something.

For the next "in the mood for a fic" can you recommend some fic that focuses on child abuse on WY or that toxic Jiang Family dynamic, can be modern or canon.

8. Hi mods, I hope you are having a great day. I have some free time right now and was wondering if there is any list of palace intrigue storylines in the MDZS fandom to binge read. Or if you could recommend some good politics heavy reads. I'm fine with a/b/o dynamic, canon or ancient china, magic- no magic, supernatural and mythical creatures, etc. Just some wangxian stories with political elements. I hope this is not too much work. It's fine if you can't find any. Anyways I appreciate the work you do as I have found quite a few good reads from the other itmf.

10. Hi!! I'm in the mood for a fic where WWX finds out about LWJ's feelings for him in an indirect way. Something similar to Dei_Starr (DeiStarr)'s The Secret Life of Lan Wangji, where WWX had no idea the LWJ felt anything for him until he read about it in LWJ's journal.

Could be that he reads something that he was never meant to see, or overhears something he was never meant to hear; as long as it's about WWX being totally oblivious to how much LWJ feels for him, until he finds out by accident. Especially better if LWJ isn't immediately aware that he's been found out.

Canon universe is preferred, explicit would be a plus (we all know that LWJ is horny for WWX 24/7!)

Thank you so much!

Not So Ordinary: since, in some instances *cough* Kingdom Hearts *cough* Cerberus can shoot fireballs/breathe fire, can Izuku do that here? Also, I assume he has claws on his hands and feet and a fluffy tail, as well as being more muscular.

KttK x NSO: Sora would not know what to make about humanoid Cerberus being friendly and wielding a keyblade after having fought Cerberus so often.

Not So Ordinary: I was actually curious as to where the association between Cerberus and fire came from since I couldn't recall any connection with the 'Guardian of Hades' thing, and so I did some digging. I've found multiple uncited claims that the poet Euphorion of Chalcis described Cerberus as having eyes that spit fire, but I can't find his actual work anywhere to verify that for myself. That all being said, Hisashi has a fire-breathing Quirk, so I don't see why not.

Keys to the Kingdom x Not So Ordinary: Sora would find that pretty surreal

The Euphorian: Ludus 2

Justice: Agape 3

Ophelia: Pragma 2

Ludus 2. Is your OC particularly skilled at flirting? Have they had to practice this or does it just happen naturally?

He taught himself to flirt somewhat by necessity when he was an elf in his early 20s stuck in the Feywild. By this point I think it just comes naturally to him though.

Agape 3. To what extent does your OC believe in the value (or even existence) of true altruism? Do they see an unselfish concern for the welfare of others as being naïve or foolish? Or as a moral quality to which people should aspire?

Just answered in this ask!

Pragma 2. What is the biggest challenge that your OC has had to overcome in a long-term relationship or friendship? What helped them get through this?

Gonna put this part under a Read More for Ophelia Spoilers.

So! For her long-term friendships/other relationships with the other Chosen of Embers (subjects of Ichayi's prophecies that were found at a young age and raised into the role) her biggest struggle was always trying to strike a balance between her role as the Grand Martyr, Chosen of the prophecy upon which the entire religion was founded, and how she must always be set apart from others so she can act as a symbol to them--versus trying to have even vaguely normal relationships with her peers growing up.

The exception to that is Serkhan, the eldest of the Chosen of Embers, Ichayi's specialest little boy, a self-centered sadist who torments others for the thrills (and somewhat out of jealousy wrt the other Chosen, because he was the first of the current batch and got pissy when others showed up and started taking up Ichayi's time and attention), especially loves pissing off Ophelia, and is, in Ophelia's eyes, a complete loose cannon who cannot be trusted to do anything that fails to bring him short-term gratification.

The biggest struggle there is resisting the urge to go against her Goddess' orders and smother him in his sleep.

[deathlessathanasia]

I'm pretty conservative when it comes to which gods I'm willing to accept as children of Hera. Ares, Eileithyia, Hebe and Hephaistos are a given, as they are consistentlymentioned as her offspring all throughout Greek mythology (though there are more or less obscure sources where the origins of some of them are different).

I maintain that Eris or Enyo being called „sister of Ares” doesn't have to mean that either of them is Hera's daughter, and she is never explicitly called their mother to my knowledge. Eris is the daughter of Nyx in Hesiod, but I do think that she would be a very appropriate child for Hera and Zeus, whose marriage is so frequently characterised by strife. Enyo can also be called the nurse or the daughter of Ares, and she has no connection with Hera in either myth or cult. She is first and foremost associated with Ares regardless of how their relationship is interpreted, and apparently there was a festival in honour of Enyo, Zeus, Demeter and Athena.

Typhon is Hera's son in a variant attested by Stesichoros and Homeric Hymn 3, and I do like it a lot even if it is not the most common.

Prometheus and Hekate are both made children of Hera (Prometheus by Euphorion, Hekate by Sophron), but while these variants are interesting, these two gods generally have nothing to do with her and they have other parents that make more sense.

The Charites are called Hera's daughters in some sources (Cornutus' Compendium of Greek Theology, Colluthus' The Rape of Helen), and their parentage can vary greatly. I suppose that if there are multiple groups of Charites there is no reason why some can't be Hera's daughters. We learn from the Iliad that younger Charites exist and that Pasithea is one of them. Hera is explicitly called Pasithea's mother in Book 31 of the Dionysiaca, and it is possible to see this relationship between them in the Iliad as well, where Hera feels free to arrange Pasithea's marriage without having to consult anyone. The only other goddess whose marriage is arranged (at least sometimes) by Hera is Thetis, her foster daughter, but the other gods are involved just as much if not more in this marriage so Hera does not work by herself as in Pasithea's case.
