I Made A Hermes Redesign!

Remember, this is merely for speculation!

(and totally doesn´t have any relevance on the fic.)

Congrats!!

Celebratory dromaeosaur!

guys I know I've been gone for Tumblr knows how long, but hang on, chapter 5 is taking a LOT longer than I thought.

Don't worry, I'm already getting the half of it!

(I think)

( I'm improvising mostly)

Me, sick in bed: I should sleep as much as I can so I can get better soon!

My brain: hey.

Me: Oh for ducks sake, what do you want!?

My brain: So, like, remember that we had all these tons of things and ideas that we wanted to do but because we're a procrastinator we never did anything?

Me: Yeah?

Brain : The internet was shut down.

Me:

Brain: we can finish the chapter of our book without any distraction.

Me:

Brain:

Me: Fuck yeah.

Continuation from this

You think you're dumb because you failed a test, I think I'm dumb because yesterday I ate an apple and it separated my braces from my teeth, and the wire practically came out, leaving me to reposition them painfully. Now they are stinging horribly my inner cheeks until I get to the dentist (Hopefully soon). Today I ate another apple, and surprised myself when my braces came out and it hurted like hell. Again.

We're not the same.

I made Something!!!

this might be my first digital art related to my fic, and I feel very proud of it!

Here's the link of the fic!

Pyro out!

Welp, I tried.

I may have bever mentioned it, but I'm a Httyd fan to the core, and the hiperfixation is back and it hit me like a bullet train.

So, after going berserker and watching a RoB marathon, I remembered Nine Realms exists, and yes, it gave me the ick, but I decided to try it out.

You see, I dont like hating things, I need a VALID REASON to actually hate something or at least feel that my hate is acceptable.

Add that with my desire to expand the httyd lore and marvel myself with ANY content, ohhh boyy-

So yeah, so far I've seen season 1 and I'm on chapter 3 of season 2, and to be honest? I expected worse, although that show has already done a LOT of damage to my heart.

Like, wtf is THIS????

It's just there. Staring at me. Evil thing.

I literally searched "httyd ugly unicorn thing" and this EMBODIMENT OF THE WORST THINGS ALIVE showed up. There's no way you can tell me that thing is "cute", it's EVERYTHING but CUTE! I also really hated Jun on that episode, but even more the writers. How can you compare something like KILLING in SELF DEFENCE with bringing ducking SATAN to the human world because "I love unicorns??" Girl not even my eleven year old sister would do something like that and she LOVES unicorns. Also, did I forget to say she never apologised? Like, just joked about the incident and acted like Tom was the one in the wrong? What kind of message is that writers!?

On another note, I really like Tom's mom, is the only caracter that seems to be her own person in the entire series besides Alex, hope she doesn't turn out bad or anything.

Which brings me to my biggest problem with this series: It's not its own thing. The literal second episode is just a compilation of parallels between Tom &Thunder and Hiccup & Toothless, and I hate it. "Oh look! It's just like your favorite dragon riders, they are so similar! They are descendant of Hiccup and Toothless, so it's just like seeing them reflected in them! It's the same! Come and let us take your money!!!"

This show is doing everything at its power to be "just like httyd", when it's not: It's a whole new scenario with a interesting concept with the whole ICARUS thing (even though I'm sure they just copied that from Camp Cretaceus, given with how much tnr relies on its own creativity) as well as the one-season mysteries, the semi-likeable teenagers which is asking a lot in media, and a huge chance of LORE EXPANDING (my fav thing everrr) and this show could be SO MUCH BETTER but they just stick with creating parallels and showing how this spin-off is just identical to the other shows and it's exactly the same and ARGGHHGGGHHH-

Let them have their OWN UNIQUE BOND so that we can like them BECAUSE they are TOM AND THUNDER and NOT BECAUSE THEY RESEMBLE HICCUP AND TOOTHLESS. Let me like the rest of the cast BECAUSE WE GOT NEW RIDERS, not because they are all the NEW RIDERS WE'VE GOT.

I want to like this show, I really do, but it's getting harder every time I click the next episode, because there are so many lost ideas, plotholes and terrible designs (which I dont usually complain about, I never minded the character design of any media until this show), that I just pray to myself that the next chapter will be better, because I'm not sure what to expect will ruin my day or make it harder for me to watch.

But I want to be an informed hater, or even perhaps a unlucky enjoyer, so I'll keep watching, and I'll try to undertand why so many people hate it, and justify the few who love it.

Pyro Out.

OMIGOSH CHAOS THEORY SEASON 3 IS HEREEEEE

Time to watch my favourite group of legally cuestionable young adults get in a bunch of shennanigans while dealing with giant lizards:)

Heyy uhh... I have a theory.

Yk, I've always wondered why Jason and Thalia, though sons of Zeus and Jupiter, weren't as powerful as Percy- a son of Poseidon, that, while still one of the Big Three, is in a lower rank.

And, like, I get it, he's the protagonist, maybe it's the genetics, it's a once-in-a-century-thing, blah blah.

Still, that doesn't explain how some demigods are way stronger than their own siblings. Why is it that Leo has abilities that none of his siblings have? Or like, why is Clarisse stronger than all fellow Ares kids? How come Luke is the only one that had pick locking abilities?

That made me wonder, what if there was something else into it? What makes a demigod be born with such powerful abilities while others either don't or are weaker?

And what if... It had something to do with the relationship their parents had?

I mean, we know that the gods in some way kind of "lend" a bit of their powers to their children in an unconsciousness level, as we also know they consider giving their children-cough Athena, cough- to the mortal parents as some sort of "gift".

What if the power that the demigods have is kind of a consequence of how much the gods loved their mortal parents when conceiving said demigods?

Like, we know that Hades loved a lot Ms. Di Angelo, and that Bianca and Nico, even if the first one didn't get to show her power, were both a neon sign of "come and eat me!" for monsters, which, yeah, it might be because they're Hades's, but Hazel wasn't persecuted by every monster in a five kilometer radius, so I like to think my point still stands.

Although, it might be because of Gaia.

...Anyways-

Another case is my beloved Meg. She's a child of Demeter, and we were told prior to this saga that both Aphrodite's and Demeter's were the safest demigods to roam outside of camp, hence them being quite "weak", most of them with barely any powers (Katie and Drew might be exceptions, considering the plant powers and charmspeak).

Yet, we have Meg. A ten(?) year old that can summon cereal demons, grow plants outta nowhere and (kinda) communicate with trees.

This girl is insanely powerful, and even Lester admits it.

Let's not forget Demeter really loved Meg's real dad, who had a nature sanctuary where many driads lived, and truly believed nature was beautiful. They both appreciated each other a lot, and for what I can remember, even after Meg they kept in a somewhat from of contact until you-know-who ruined everything.

I think Demeter was truly in love with him.

Let's go back with Thalia, Jason and Percy for a second.

When I say that these two arent as powerful as Seaweed, I don't mean to say that Zeus didn't love their mom. In fact, I believe he did a lot, specially considering he fell for her in both his Greek AND Roman form.

What I do believe is that she didn't love him the same way. I think she loved more the idea of being with a god rather than the god itself. They both are highly egoistical people as far as I've seen, so my guess is that, while they felt attracted to each other, they liked themselves more, which is what drove them apart in the first place.

There's also Percy himself, who is my last point to concrete my theory. Him, the son of the sea god, who thought Sally was the Queen of Ninphs. Poseidon, who said Percy's mom was the most beautiful woman in the world. The Earthshaker, who admitted to have never loved someone as much as he did with Sally.

He, who said he'd never forget her.

What I'm trying to say is, I think demigods strength and godly abilities are heavily caused by the love their parents felt for each other.

After all, Love is one of the most powerful feelings to exist, being even older than gods themselves (Aphrodite is technically a Titaness when it comes to mythology accuracy).

So to believe that love is the source of power of the children of two creatures that, godly or not, are motivated by their primal emotions and feelings, it doesn't surprise me to think their power comes from the strongest of said emotions.

Heyyy so, I've been listening to The Epic musical lately and I came up with some designs for the gods:)

I call it the God saga, I'll make the ppl+ monsters later

plus some Artemis and Dyonisus because I love them and I didn't want to leave blank spaces.

Rambling below👇

Okay, first we have Athena and Ares, as well as Hermes and Eolious(she was my first design, but I'm not a big fan of it). I liked a lot making Ares helmet:), and I thought of giving Athena a cape made of feathers that could work as wings!

I really liked the designs of Hermes were his eyes didn't appear (credits to @gigizetz for the idea!) and while I wanted to do something similar, I tried to make my own thing by using a blindfold instead. Plus, I made him look more humanlike to have a more obvious parentage with Ody.

Then we have Hera and Zeussy. I really liked her design, it screamed Classy Queen to me, and while drawing her I felt she was about to start singing at any moment. While making her hair I remembered my little pony Equestria girls, and I was like "I have to make her hair look like a cow's tail". I wanted to give her some sort of chal to make the colors more appealing, but it didn't come out well... On the other hand, my design of Zeus is exactly how I pictured him. He looks like a bodybuilder, unlike Ares, who looks like a powerhouse. I wanted to make Zeus look like someone who cares more about his appearance than about practicality, which can be seen in his clothes, skin, pose and crown. Plus, I made it look red so it would stand out and get everyone's attention. Also I made him wing tattoos because I can.

Then we have Apollo and Aphrodite! I didn't really put too much though when making him. I just gave him kind of a sun crown(?), Green eyes to represent Artemis, a Hyacinth and laurels. I think he'd be the type to carry his exes around.

Then we have Aphrodite, and boy do I love her design! Originally she was going to be blond w/ pink flowers, but her being a redhead suits her a lot. If I have to be honest, I never drew characters with little to no clothes on, and I was embarrassed at first of making her, but even if there was the option of giving her clothes, it wouldn't feel like the vision of Aphrodite I had at all. I was inspired mainly by the Hades games when I made her, Hermes and Zeus, and I don't regret it tbh. I also gave her pigeons!

Now we have Circe and Poseidon, who I think are my faves. When I was thinking of making her, I was heavily inspired by both @gigizetz Circe, young Shakira and Esmeralda from the hunchback of Notre Dame. I also wanted her to have a crazy bunch of tattoos, each for every single spell she casted. I also liked to give her the inverted heart earrings to make some foreshadowing.

Now, POSEIDON. Boy do I like how it turned out. I mean- the Clothes? The crown? The algae hair? The thing in his fingers!? And let's not talk about the seashell for a beard. I love it. It's interesting and intimidating and I would believe it if you told me this is the mighty sea god. Also, his skin was heavily inspired by @gigizetz like many of my designs. Are you perhaps a muse or smt?

Then we have Calypso. Gosh her design turned out really good. The top of her clothes are of the same "outfit" you could say, these being from back when she was sent to the island. Then she made her own lower dress. I think if someone stayed so long in that place, they would make a lot of seashell adornments to pass time. I covered her eyes for three things: one, so Ody doesn't notice she is a Titaness; two, to symbolize how love-blind she is, and three, to also symbolize how she ignores Odysseus's problems and makes a "blind eye" about it.

And Finally, Hephaestus. I redesinged him so many times it feels like a crime. I'm not even sure if I liked the final result, but there's definitely many things I liked. One of them is the tattoo (I'm making a lot of them lately), the hairstyle and the sling on his leg. Still, I'm not sure why he feels so... Simple. I mean, he's the god of forges, fire and FREAKING VOLCANOES. Yet, this feels like I only took the "forges" part.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed if you made it this far:)
