Oh @hyena-bro my sweet summer child, allow me to tell you the story of Mesperyian, the goddess who never was and never will be.
So it all started with this tumblr post, right?
And obviously people mentioned the goddesses Aphrodite and Persephone, and the benefits of answering such goddesses as the most beautiful. But then Tumblr user 28weekslaterhater mentioned to answer the goddess Mesperyian (most beloved daughter of Hades) as the most beautiful. According to them, “jealous ho” Aphrodite burnt half of Mesperyian’s face off in a blind rage for being more beautiful than her.
This post began to spread to the fact-check-less masses of Tumblr, and more mythology sprouted up about this so-called “Mesperyian”, how she was the goddess of torture and punishment (even though a goddess of punishment already existed) and had to wear a cool mask because of the aforementioned face burning.
Everyone took it as gospel for years until various Tumblr users pointed out “hey if you happen to just… look up this goddess, the only thing you’ll find is this Tumblr post”. After that, it had been exposed that Mesperyian never fucking existed and that Tumblr user just completely made them up on the fly.
And that’s how Tumblr invented a Greek goddess
That’s one of the most greek god mythology things I’ve ever heard and based on that she’s to be treated as new to the roster.
to be fair, hades DID havea daughter with a similar name. Melinoe. She was the goddess of ghosts and half her body is that of a beautiful maiden while the other half is that of decay. she can take on the faces of deceased loved ones to shame people for trying to help ghosts escape
Spark: OH hey aran, sorry news, im closing shop early today. I pulled an all nighter and need to catch some Z’s after i deliver it.
Aran: Let me guess, its his order isnt it
Spark: I cannot divulge customer information, you know that
Aran: whatever hes plotting is probably going to be a piece of cheap crap and an insult to your work and you know it
Spark: Hey whatever someone does is none of my concern. they could be making a doomsday device that grows sentient and decides to not kill everyone because it wants to learn what love is but has has trouble because its a concept that cant be translated into a series of ones and zeros so it ultimately flies off into space to detonate itself in a place where nobody gets harmed. Man I’d watch that film. Sorry what were we talking about?
Aran: -sigh-
Aran: You were about to finish up for the day
Spark: Oh yeah! If you wanna place an order, wait till the shop is open tomorrow
