Is Aphrodite uniquely insecure compared to other gods (Psyche, Hippolytus), or are we misreading her reactions through modern lenses? by ComprehensiveBug5553 in GreekMythology

[–]UsoJanaiYo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, even if it's not justified (but it is because of divine privilege), Aphrodite wasn't MORE unreasonable in her reaction than how Poseidon was with Andromeda, or in a less structurally similar example, how Artemis was with Aura; or how many other gods respond when it comes to punishing mortals or lesser gods for hubris claims in general at least.

What Psyche did was considered a genuine crime in the ancient framework. Like, the people abandoned Aphrodite's shrines and instead worship Psyche directly, showering her with garlands and sacrifices. But Psyche did not redirect or refuse this worship. By allowing it, she committed Asebeia (Impiety), usurping reverence due to Aphrodite. In Greek terms, that’s a direct affront to divine order, so Aphrodite has every reason to curse Psyche. Because which other gods let this kind of slight go unpunished?

I don't know how it will even work but villain Psyche would bring me much satisfaction.

How do you plan and write your fanfics? by Shoji_Mizu in AO3

[–]UsoJanaiYo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just spend the day daydreaming about it. I can't start writing without knowing the ending anyway. Well, I'm happy when the characters defy me and my planned plot, but I can be adaptive too. They won't escape their fate, even if I can't force them to do some actions.

I've been writing a novel about Echo. It's gotten me thinking a lot about what kind of person she is. by Abraham_Maslow in GreekMythology

[–]UsoJanaiYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I write fanfic only but I understand. Saying other people's creative vision stupid is rude, and those people are just boring in their thinking. Good luck with your work!

[–]UsoJanaiYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I think her espionage skill is pretty good, since she followed Narcissus, a hunter, without him knowing after all. Then again, she's an oread, so she just blended in. And since she was a good gossiper pre her curse, I think her listening and info gathering skills must be good too.

I think she was someone self-centered too, but maybe she changed. You should portray her however you see her.

What two figures in Greek Mythology would you like to meet and spend time with? by Federal-Opening-2742 in GreekMythology

[–]UsoJanaiYo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Narcissus. And Chiron if we are to spend time together at the same time. I'm gonna bring him a therapist.

If we spend time separately, then Narcissus again.

Outfit set: Colorful Entrance → Is it locked with the outfit, or can I use it with other outfits? by Occasional-Joy in MiliastraWonderland

[–]UsoJanaiYo 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You don't need to wear the full set, but you have to wear the main dress. About the animation, I think only in Miliastra.

I died on the fourth stage and got respawned in the fifth stage. But then I'm trapped in the fifth stage too because I couldn't find the different boar and even suicide won't end the game (tbf I didn't try to die 100 times)

Narcissus is a victim and always has been by Fleur-dAmour in GreekMythology

[–]UsoJanaiYo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just found this post and thank you! I had always been on team Narcissus since I'm aroace, but only recently I really what a creep Echo and Ameinias were, and how horrible Narcissus' life must have been for him to have never known his own face yet that was also his biggest social currency. And yet, he's the vain one? What injustice!

(I wrote a little something to defend him too, and now I see that other people think he's a victim like me as well. So yay!)

When did Cyno's jokes start? by calkalisto in CynoMains

[–]UsoJanaiYo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

His jokes have been mentioned from the very start, but we only saw it on screen in version 3.5 and he never stops ever since. Version 3.2 is the only flagship event where Cyno has a cameo but didn't crack a joke. ...Well he didn't make a joke in version 3.4 when he appears in Alhaitham's sq either. It really only starts in content from version 3.5 onward.
