OKAY OKAY LAST THING FOR NOW
Tecciztecatl was an only child for the majority of his childhood until like, idk what high school and then his parents were like hm we should try for one more kid. ONLY TO END UP WITH QUADRUPLETS WHICH IS EXTREMELY FUNNY.
Tlaloc felt really bad mainly because having another child was something he brought up. Anyways, that's how the Tlaloques are in the corporate au.
It was a very loud house for a hot minute. But Tecciztecatl knows how to swaddle and wrap things to him!
Últimamente ha llovido por dónde vivo y pues debo mostrar mi agradecimiento a tlaloc uwu 💙
Depiction of Nanahuatzin breaking open the mountain of sustenance with lightning given him by the four tlaloques, revealing corn to the world #nanahuatzin#mexica#mexicagod#mexicamythology#aztec#aztecmyth#myth#mythology#tlaloc#tlaloques#darkart#art https://www.instagram.com/p/B12k23JJy32/?igshid=13fxwxdlz2idy
More gods!
1)Ixtilton “Blacky Face/Rostro Negrillo” the god of medicine of lord of “tlílatl”,a black water that had healing factors.He also could be Macuilxóchitl’s brother...
2)Atlacoya:Goddes of droughts and infertility,unlike other deities she was seen as an negative goddess.
Tlacotzontli:God of the night path,he protected the tlavelers whom presented themself bleeding with hawthorn branches.
3)Temazcalteci,Huehuecóyotl and Opochtli.
Temalcateci:Goddess of the “temazcal” (basically a prehispanic versión of steam baths).She was considered the grandmother of the man,(in her name it is the word “Teci” wich means “Grandmother”)
Huehuecóyotl:”old coyote”.
He was the god of music,dance and songs.
He was the lord of rampant sexuality,this based in the fact that,even when he had a wife (Temazcalteci) he also had many lovers:Xochiquetzal,Xochipilli and Opochtli.
Opochtli:”The left handed”
God of fishing.
He was one of the Tlaloques (Tláloc’s minions) and mexica people said he invented the “Minacachalli” (a weapon to kill fish) and the fish net.
4)Tláloc and Opochtli.
Tláloc can be a bossy god sometimes (all the time)
Random Aztec mythos headcanons because why not
• The moon (Tecciztecatl) controls the tides because the Tlaloques begged Acuecueyotl/Chalchiuhtlicue to give him a job so that he wouldn’t feel useless. Also because they wanted their “brother” to stay in Tlalocan.
• Xolotl could absolutely devour a chicken salad BLT. I have no evidence for this. He just seems like a BLT guy.
• Tezcatlipoca drops into the animal baby voice when he thinks no one is around.
• Nanahuatzin is undiagnosed autistic because he kinda reminds me of lil undiagnosed me when I didn’t understand why I never really fit in :(
• Quetzalcoatl created Olms (olm pic for reference) and Xolotl hated them so much for copying his style that he put them all in Europe.
• Tonatiuh and Huitzilopochtli flip a coin on who wants to drive the sun that day
• Tecciztecatl is just the dad and dog meme with the moon rabbit
Alright who pissed off the rain gods
The Tlaloques fuck with their boss’s son/replacement older brother
