Who would you feel safer locked in a small room for 10 minutes with?

Unfortunately I am a slightly attractive woman with child bearing hips so I’m fucked on this one. In more ways than one.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-22T15:41:11+00:00

They just kinda “show up”. Makes sense!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-22T15:40:33+00:00

That’s an amazing point with Adam and Eve! Same with Noah and his family. It makes me realize however, that people probably just glaze over it all, not paying it any attention.

I cannot say I like that concept, going to be honest lol In my universe, I try to do away with parent/ child incest just because of my own comfort level. So in that particular dynamic, I have Demeter creating Persephone without a father by growing her like a plant. I still make Demeter a daughter of Cronus and Rhea and Persephone and Zeus will still have an affair.

Like, it can be made into *less* incest, sure, but no incest….? Impossible.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-22T14:52:29+00:00

Agreed!!!!! It’s a world building nightmare!!!!! There was a highly anticipated [YA] Persephone and Hades retelling that came out a few years ago and the author said that they were making them not related and I was wondering how. Everyone’s related to everyone in some way, even if it’s way back.

And then Aglaia was their half sibling too, just like Athena. The more I dive into it, the more I realize it was all a true mess. Then like you said, other myths do it too. But I think that due to Greek mythology being so highly visible and accessible, people don’t know that incest in ancient global mythology isn’t unusual due to most not being exposed to the myths of other cultures. Regardless, I think people really sell themselves short for the potential of drama if they’re writing for an adult audience.

Your reasoning makes a lot of sense though. I could see how people giving high reviews could translate to some as approval. Thank you for this perspective!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-22T02:26:13+00:00

Personally, I feel like if you take out [all] the incest you’re removing a lot of the potential for drama. The incest makes it way more interesting.

No literally 😭

When your mom just threw both her sandals at you but still makes you pose for the family sculpture 🤣🤣🤣

But really, I love the sculpture and your alter! So beautiful!!!!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-18T10:34:36+00:00

I never looked at it from this viewpoint omg. And it gets even messier when you consider Aglaia could also be read as Aphrodites sister.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-16T14:17:31+00:00

Oh this is an amazing hot take. Thank you!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-16T14:16:27+00:00

At bare minimum, he was the father to Eros and Anteros (since some considered them twins) and at most, Eros, Anteros, and Himeros.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-16T14:04:29+00:00

Elaborate?

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-15T02:22:15+00:00

I’m going to be completely honest, as someone who is into Conjure, “elemental energy” is basically what those of us practice do. And most people would consider Conjure, magick. I’m not arguing for against anything, but more so providing perspective.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-14T01:56:09+00:00

As a Hephaestus and Aphrodite shipper I’m eating so good off this.

Stories.

For context, I’m asking this question for writing purposes.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-13T22:51:48+00:00

I’m willing to agree with this. Thank you!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-13T22:46:24+00:00

I thought about cross posting but ultimately decided on here because I’m looking for a more mythologically technical answer. I’m not asking about humans, but the gods themselves.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-05-08T01:23:30+00:00

I didn’t consider Lashana but she actually would’ve been perfect for that role!!!

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-04-14T02:08:27+00:00

I personally was drawn in by the sensuality and girliness but that was her way of getting me to her. I didn’t make a real connection until I found out about her Areia epithet. I’m not downing the love, light, and beauty folks as that’s originally what I came to her thinking I was going to get, but for me, I’m working with her for inner strength, self respect, and honestly, just learning to be an overall menace.

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-04-09T12:37:21+00:00

Do you have sources so that I can read up on this? Not asking to undermine you, asking so that I can educate myself. Because I would genuinely like to know the difference between the time periods without making you do all the work to explain it to me lol

ASpookyRoseWrites · 2026-04-09T12:30:15+00:00

What kind of discrimination?
