snippet:

"Would you marry me if you could?" He does not know where the question comes from. It simply slips out, a consequence of his racing mind. He claps a hand over his mouth and feels his muscles freeze as he realizes what he has done, dreading a detrimental reply.

Icarus making sure to always save the best of anything he has to give as an offering to Apollo. He burns everything in a golden bowl. Icarus begging Daedalus to craft him a lyre so he can learn to play it because it makes him feel closer to Apollo. Icarus trying to raise bees so he always has fresh honey to offer Apollo.

Apollo receiving all these offerings and getting bullied by Artemis because he can’t stop blushing because what is this human boy doing?? Fuck it’s so cute though and he starts lingering above where they’re being held bc he wants to be closer to him for a second.

Icarus flew higher and higher and higher. Until the sun was all he could see. And goodness was it a sight. It was bright. Enough so that his eyes felt like they were burning. And he could feel his skin nearly searing off. And he could feel his wings burning.

Then he was falling.

He would surely die from this height.

But who could think of death in a moment like this? He had seen the sun. Gods, it was so large and otherworldly and so… beautiful. He would die over and over again if it meant he got to nearly touch the sun- if it meant he got to feel its golden rays burning him.

Before he could; however, a warm hand wrapped around his wrist.

A man had caught him. With long golden hair and golden eyes and warm skin that nearly glowed. There was no moment of realization- no confusion or disbelief. It took no time at all for the dots to connect.

“I must say. In all my years of pulling the sun chariot… no mortal has ever tried to reach me before.” Apollo’s eyes twinkled as he held on to Icarus by his wrist and he couldn’t help but sweat nervously.

So this was divinity. A handsome strong face with a beautiful smile and shining golden eyes that hurt to look at. A bow and quiver strapped to his back with a revealing toga that barely covered his chest. It was impudent- and blasphemous. Yet Icarus could not dare to look away from him.

“Y-You’re beautiful.” He blurts out unknowingly.

The god lets out a soft chuckle, “So I’ve been told.”

Icarus nearly slips out of Apollo’s grasp before being caught by him again, “Careful… you nearly fell there.”

“I… I fear I already have”

I love how we have all collectively decided that Icarus was gay for Apollo, even though there is no mythological accuracy in that statement.

and the sun never set,

until his love fell through the sky,

for apollo never left

until icarus chose his dream to fly,

he touched the sun,

delirious, arms open,

he said “goodbye, my love”,

and plummeted towards the ocean,

leaving apollo paralysed,

icarus didn’t even hold his hand out,

he did not even cry,

in the hope that apollo would catch him

or with him, he would die.

and so apollo followed down right after,

painting hues of orange and pink

in the sky,

a send off for his love,

and the mourning of his curse

his immortal bones,

and for the first time ever,

the stars were able to shine,

the moon undressed herself to bring some light

as apollo tried to lie to rest in the watery grave,

he sank beneath the ocean,

chariot and all.

and the stars and the moon couldn’t watch his grief,

so they created the night sky,

and created sunsets everyday,

however brief,

just so icarus and apollo can meet.

- i suppose they were the first ‘star-crossed’ lovers, weren’t they?

°•○ICARUS IN LOVE○•°

I loved you as

Icarus loved

The sun-

Too close

Too much...

°•○•°°•○•°°•○●○•°♡°•○●○•°°•○•°°•○•°

°•°•Icarus Academia°•°•

Maybe...

Maybe Icarus wanted to fall. Maybe he wanted to graze Apollo's light and Poseiden's deepest sand. Maybe Icarus smiled when he felt Apollo burn his wings. Maybe Icarus laughed when he felt the wind whipped through his broken wings and the salty sea cooled the scorching wax. Maybe Icarus wanted to be free, to leave the steel cage. Maybe he was a young boy high on delight and fear, maniacal laughter leaving his lips. For who could say they had touched the edge of Apollo's garments and seen the bottom of Poseiden's palace...

icarus washed ashore

wings melted away

heart still beating

apollo took his hand

and said

"you don't have to hide

not here

not while you're with me"

The Fall of the Sun

#apollo #Icarus #icarus falls #greek mythology #greek mythology fanart #icarus x apollo

[annoyinglyobsessive]

icarus loved them from afar, writing letters from his tower.

He fell in love with the fiery passion of the sun and longed for the steady, fatherly comfort of the sea, so different from the volatile anger of his real father.

When daedalus invented the wings icarus rejoiced because he knew this was his change.

When he flew out of the tower he soared up to press a kiss to his love before falling into the fatherly embrace of the ocean.

Daedalus mourns the death of his son on land but icarus ìs happy, living in his favorite place, the spot where the light of the sun glint off the crashing waves.

snippet:

It is a strange mix, that of blood, tears, vomit, and ocean. A cruel, malicious potion of disease.

Part One

Apollo’s scream ripped through the air in a way that made the sky seem like it had frozen. Helios stumbled, faltering in his movements as he heard the God scream.

“Apollo?” he asked cautiously, before following his eyes down to the boy. “Oh no.”

“Uncle, please!” Apollo screamed as He nearly fell from His chariot, desperate to be able to catch the mortal who has stolen away His heart. “Please,” the whisper fell on deaf ears as He saw the boy shatter against the waves, skin turned back to marble, scattered through the sea.

“No,” the word was stuck in Apollo’s throat as His body trembled, tears building up behind His eyes. Him, a God, crying over the death of a mortal? He knew how His father would see this, but He couldn’t help Himself.

The sky grew dark as Artemis faltered in Her own mission, feeling Her brother’s anguish. No, something happened to Him. Something so powerful that it felt like She was being gutted. Helios was with Him though, so She resigned Herself to finishing Her duties before finding Him to ask what happened. He was safe- at least physically.

Helios didn’t say anything as Apollo cursed His uncles, His father, the Earth and Sea Themselves. He just softly nudged Him forward, letting Him take the chariot back onto its path. Helios wasn’t overly fond of the God, but he could see that he was grieving. Even Gods, he supposed, could learn to love.

Apollo wiped tears from His eyes, a lump in His throat that made it difficult to breathe. He has dug His nails so hard into His palms that ichor had begun to spill. Pooling and dripping down His palms to dot the bottom of the chariot.

“He was the one sending the offering,” Helios finally said, looking at Apollo for maybe the first time ever with soft eyes.

Apollo couldn’t speak. All He could do was nod as His lip trembled. His chest heaving. His nails digging into His palms as He guided the chariot across the sky.

“For what it’s worth, I’m sorry. He seemed like a kind boy,” Helios said in a low voice that felt like it made the sky rumble with thunder.

“I would have given him ambrosia if he’d asked. Anything to have him for a day,” was Apollo’s soft hearted reply.
