"You're an idiot..... You're a tolerable idiot" is my favorite kind of Persephone and Hades relationship. Where Persephone gets over her original anger towards Hades for kidnapping her and realizes that he loves her so much it's made him a loveable idiot who'd do anything to make her happy.
0:03 😂😂😂 I remember reading the Odyssey in school and some of my annotations were literally: “Are you TRYING to get yourself killed?!” 1:13 Lady Aphrodite also changed her appearance to whatever the other person deemed the most beautiful, so I also count her as genderfluid
I’ve always found it so bizarre that complex for loving your mother but hating your father is named after the dude that straight up ripped out his eyes upon finding out he shacked up with his own mom
Wait it wasn’t the fact hades and Persephone wasn’t in love it was the fact they twisted the myth that it wasn’t about seasons or mothers and daughters anymore.
