How does the image your character tries to project differ from the image they actually project?
omg.
so zeus has worked very hard to be BETTER; in everything he does. better king, better father, better PERSON. he tries hard to make others see that part of him, because he hates who he was, he hates being hated. and he works hard to be the opposite of the cruel, paranoid, unjust man he had once been. he tries to make himself seem more like the god of justice that he is.
however, he can still revert to some of his bad habits. he gets angry easily, he can be brash, he can be a little childish when he’s upset. and people see that. they see him as a guy who can be an asshole BUT STILL IS BETTER THAN HE ONCE WAS. that’s the important part.
