Hello~ may i ask if u have any HC for Greek Gods!WWX? I mean Hades is the obvious one...but i also like the idea of him being Hermes or Apollo or Hestia or Hephaestus or even Demeter (cuz farming) tickles me 🤭🤭🤭

Okay SO. Techincally there are lot of possibilities, but for me, there’s really only one choice: Hecate.

She’s a goddess with many associations, one of which is as a protector of the household (like other Greek gods). But she was also associated with witchcraft, spirits of the dead, and necromancy. I’m halfway asleep so I’m not sure if I remember everything correctly, but I think one of the functions she had was to protect homes from restless spirits. And she was associated liminal spaces (esp doorways and crossroads), which I find highly interesting. I just think she’s neat!

Another interesting tidbit is that she has a strong connection to dogs, and I think dogs were her primary sacrifical animal. WWX is afraid of dogs, but make of that what you will. Maybe WWX just wants all these dogs sacrificed to him. :3c

Additionally, I like that Hecate is not one of the the ‘big’ Greek gods, but a more peripheral one. That’s something that fits, too. Wei Wuxian is definitely not suitable to be a ‘mainstream’ god(dess).

So, that’s my take... I’m sure lots of other people have very different takes, though, hahahaha.

Soooo is interbreeding a thing or what?

I have a script for a full Youtube video on this that I intend to make… some time… so I’ll give you the cliffnotes. SC has a fairly large cast, but it’s mostly comprised of orphans and supervillains. For something about a family, we don’t actually see that many familial units on-screen.

Various details would imply that it takes two of the same species to produce a child. For instance, every single depicted Cooper we’re shown is a raccoon, and the one full family we do get a brief glimpse of - Dimitri’s immediate family, the Lousteaus - are all the same type of weird lizard.

But, there’s also evidence that two parents of different species can have a kid, and will just produce offspring in one of the two parental species. Most prominent is Sly’s romance with Carmelita. He’s explicitly expressed the desires both to be with her and to have kids of his own, and doesn’t seem worried by how those might be mutually exclusive goals. So maybe the Coopers just have crazy-strong genes (since they’re already basically magic), and having a Cooper parent will just guarantee the child is a raccoon.

(Also, Tsao is pretty convinced he can successfully have kids with a panda.) 

All this, these logistical questions which have plagued me for over a decade, is yet another reason I really want more info on Sly’s mom. There’s precisely two images of her in the games:

Her feet look similar to Conner’s. She’s not shown with a tail, but oddly, neither are Conner or Sly.

If you really squint, you can see a woman with dark hair and pointed ears next to a man who looks like Sly. Given the other picture is obviously depicting the previous Cooper Gang - and just via the Law of Conservation of Detail - we can assume these are Sly’s parents.

So: we know she had pointy ears.

...That doesn’t mean she was a raccoon.

That’s a reasonable assumption, sure, but technically speaking she could be a wolf, a cat, or even in a poetic and/or disturbing twist, a fox. When I say we have no information about Sly’s mother, I mean it. We do not have an explicit species here, people.
