So! This is just HCs and my thoughts on the matter, and it's basically just me rambling about most of the main gods in the Greek pantheon are like when they're angry, how often they get angry ect.
Do not mind any typos, I kinda just spewed this out at work and haven't gone over it! And I decided to share it with you guys!
Anyways! HCs below the cut!
Zeus: He is actually harder to anger than one might think. He often takes any attempts to rile him up with amusement. He has a massive ego, and a very aloof nature nothing really seems to get to him. However, push the right buttons or for long enough and you see the true wrath of the King of Gods. It is explosive and loud, much like the vicous skies he controls - though it lacks the destruction that many would expect. For as flashy and big, and terrfying as his anger is -- it passes smoothly -- but only on his terms. Nobody is able to calm Zeus.
Posideon: He is the easiest to piss off, if you were to ask any of his fellow gods. He is as truberlent with his emotions as the domain he controls. His anger is well known and seen often. Sometimes it is nothing but a sharp cold spray of water that stings your face, but other times it is a hurricane and earthquake beneath your feet and inside your chest. His rage is destructive and violent -- and it vanishes just as quickly, but, not always. Poseidon is fully capable of holding a grudge or fued, and those who fall into "they piss me off by existing" category tend not to live long. Poseidon is somehow more unreasonable than his younger brother during his fits of rage, but, they tend to last less time.
Hades: Pissing off the King of the Underworld is a feat. Though, no one knows why you would activately try. Comapred to his younger brothers he has the patience of a saint, but for as long as his fuse is - his rage is nothing to be trifled with. Hades anger is cold and calculating, everything he does will be done with measured malice. If looks could kill would apply to every ounce of his anger. Though, typically, he is simply frustrated. It takes a lot of pushing to get him to real anger. Once he gets there, there is few people in the world who can bring him back down.
Hera: There is nothing like a woman's wrath. She is fairly easy to anger, and incure the wrath of: but it's only if you push very specific buttons. Unlike her aloof husband, she simply cares too much about everything, and it leads to her being hurt and angry more often than not. Her anger is well documented throughout history, it is a wuiet storm that slowly whips you away from everything you've known. It is a mighty chess-game that you have no hopes of winning. Her rage is impending doom and heavy weights upon your shoulders, but, there is alwats this deep lingering sadness that threatens to drown you. Her temper is often more likely calmed by those she cares about - her husband not included often in that.
Hermes: You pissed off Hermes? *How*? What did you do? As flighty as his emotions tend to be genuine anger is one of the more rare ones, he doesn't enjoy feeling it either. However, if you manage to get on the trickster's nerves you should be prepared for your life to be spectacularly: ruined. Everything you are and everything you could be will be ripped away, right before your eyes. There is no bar "too low" for him to go when he's mad. Some say he gets that from his father...
Dionysus: Once more, I certainly must ask the question of: how and why? Dionysius anger isn't all that common nor significant. He tries his best to be the most fun of them all, and the chillest - but do not underestimate what a god whose domains include madness will do. Dionysius is downright sadistic when he is pissed off, and will make his anger known, loudly. He tends to even be a bit blinded by it should it set in, and so, he tries his best to avoid being angry at all costs. It's not his brand, you know?
Athena: She has a long, long fuse. She is always twleve steps ahead of you and pissing off Athena is notoriously difficult despite her being a war goddess. Very little can penetrate the armor she shields herself with, but, when it does - she takes after Zeus. Her rage is petrifying to witness not only because it is so rarely seen, but everyone, knows what happens to her foes. You're good as dead - or worse, typically, if you mess with Athena, and no-one can calm her down. Not unless they want a fight.
Ares: Though, often seen as a man who is "angry all the time" that simply isn't true. Ares has a tendency for honorable bloodlust and violence, but, true anger - is a bit harder to push out of him than one might expect. He may be loud and tries to take up a lot of space - but that's not anger. Pushing him is not something anyone wants. His rage is a bloodred blackout type. He won't exactly remember what he did to you during it. He is a furious opponent and will not back down for anything and will do *anything* -- however, his temper is oddly easily cooled by those around him. His anger is most likely going to manifest as targeted physcial violence, rather than large catastrophic blowouts like many of his fellow gods.
Aphrodite: She is a rather emotional goddess to begin with, her ties to the ocean and the human conditiom making her almost as violate as Poseidon. However, her rage tends to be oddly cold and downright cruel. It is bitter and spiteful, filling your mouth with the taste of blood. It is shattering of every beautiful thing in your life - and cutting yourself upon the peices. Though, she as just likely to forgive you as you are likely to anger her.
Demeter: Angering the goddess of the harvest is not a good idea, and it never has been. When Demeter is pissed off the crops die and locusts comsume what remians of your grain, the winter lasts twice as long and the trees fall as their roots hollow out. She will do the same to you - hollow you out and leave nothing but regret for what you did. Her anger is the scorching heat that dries your throat and cracks your skin. It is slow, lasting and painful. Demeter, however, does try to avoid getting to such a state as she prefers to nuture - and not destory. Her daughter, ans the fellow matriarch Hera, are some of the people who can ease her anger consistently.
Hestia: She does not often fall to the effects of rage. She avoids it at all costs, for it causes her flames to become something unrecognizable. They begin to burn and singe rather than warm, and her words do the same. Her anger is something much like a fire you have to stroke and kindle to earn, and you must always keep adding fuel to it. Few have seen her angry, and fewer still would ever wish it upon someone.
Persephone: She takes almost completely after her mother. Her anger is the wilting of flowers, and the death of colors. She will bring ruin to your gardens and drag your soul into depths of which you have never known. She is prickly and throny when is angry, not allowing anyone near her. Persephone leads you astray like a malicous nypth in the woods only to drop you into a pit of vipers. Earning her ire isn't easy, and one must advise you do not seek it out. Bonus: if you piss her off there is a 7/10 chance you piss Hades off too, and a 9/10 chance Demeter.
Apollo: His anger is flippint and flashy, but, it is no less terrifying than any of the others. His anger settles into you as dread, and his wrath his more than likely inescapable. It is the broken notes of a song that grates your ears and the siren call of a blinding burning light. Apollo'a rage is sharp ans targeted flying very much like his arrows, and he hardly ever misses. Though - should you manage to talk to him you may just walk away! It just takes wuiet the sweet sound to cool his temper.
Artemis: Have you ever felt as if you are prey? Being stalked from the trees? That is what the huntresses anger feels like prickling up the back of your neck. Sharp teeth and claws will bury themselves into your skin, and tear everything you are away. She isn't easy to anger, rather reserved emotionally except to those few she lets in, including her Hunters. You might get her to bare her teeth and snap her jaws, but, not much more. If you push it however, you will find yourself chased by a relentless beast bathed in moonlight - until she has won. Until she is satisfied and her hunt successfull.
Hephaestus: He is a pretty calm and collected man, though, he is often just a little bit grumpy - but he really doesn't mean anything by it. When you manage to push the big-teddy bear of a man to his limit however, it is like a volcano. It will melt you down and burn everything to a crisp - slowly and steadily after the intial eurprution occured. His outbursts are rare, and often unexpected. Luckily, he is easily cooled off and often apologetic for his anger getting the best of him.
May I request some pissed off England and Denmark hc's?♡
England:-Can scream and lash out-Will hide away after to brood and think over what happened-Can and will hold grudges-Tendency to get very aggressive (verbally) in fights, but also very defensive
Denmark:-It takes a lot to make him angry, but he is a beast when angered-Very intimidating and cold, looms over whoever he is angry at-His voice gets very deep and serious-Can yell, and will if he is pushed enough
5. What was the last thing your muse was angry about?
(I am going with Dr.Chandra for this one, hope that is okay)
Dr.Chandra was angry about the giant electric bill Joshua had caused with his endless gaming sessions and feeling angry towards a few colleagues at work.
