Been a while since I’ve drawn my favorite blue man!! I was messing around with the pastels in Realistic Paint Studio and saw Hades’ signature blue in the palette and couldn’t resist 😁

Hades is from Lore Olympus

Minthe will forever be the original!

The last pic is by @anoldplace, who noticed that Persephone dresses like Minthe. Their post inspired me to look for more parallels and wow there’s a lot.

[problematic-faves-appreciation]

Do you think Lore Olympus would have gotten less hate if it wasn’t a Persephone/Hades retelling but instead a story with strictly original characters (that aren’t based off Greek Gods)?

Maybe, but people would have still gone after the story due to the age gap. Man, the fuss they kick up over that.

Persephone would've entered a massive May–December relationship no matter what, regardless if she hadn't ended up with Hades. Everyone in LO is much older than her.

Want to know something I find particularly ironic? The haters shipping Persephone with Minthe. Not because of a massive age difference (Minthe is probably not in her hundreds yet) between them. Rather, the character dynamic they would have had if they'd been an item: an abusive one.

People accuse the Persephone/Hades pairing of being super-duper problematic, but they're A-okay with Persephone/Minthe? Nothing problematique there, no siree! Persephone would've had nothing to worry about, I prommy, from Minthe — who was canonically abusive, and used the "who else would tolerate you but me?" tactic against her partner. No complaints from them here!

Jeez, make it make sense.

I just know Minthe would thrive as a OI protagonist.

Just point out the gross relationship of Persephone and Hades, don't make Hades the Ml and don't completely villainize Persephone and it would make the perfect female rage story.

[kinda-indecisive]

Random thought, but damn... i don't care if Hades was toxic for scraping out some journalist's eyeball.. in fact, I wish he'd scraped out more people's eyeballs!

Hades had every reason to be toxic and unhinged toward others about his crush, his girlfriend, his wife idec idec these are fictional characters why should they have to be ethical and boringgggg??

And Persephone, too! "Oh, she shouldn't have turned Minthe into a mint plant, that's too cruel". No, she shouldn't have. She shoulda smitted her on the spot!! She should have been devious and evil and I would have loved her for it still lmaooooo

[the-lazyyy-artist]

I can never look at Mads Mikkelsen without remembering this is the man Hades was inspired from just because Rachel has a big fat crush on him and she was Persephone.
