This is a scene from a story that I’ve had in my head for quite a long time and that I may draw some day. It would be a flashback that focuses mainly on Athena’s first crush (on Prometheus) and her asexuality (naturally, she and Aphrodite are not exactly friends, but here Athena still manages to open up).

(I’m still not sure about my own orientation, but this would still be one of the more personal things I’ve drawn. When it comes to sex and romantic love, I’ve often felt like I’m “broken”.)
