Heaven's BBS || Text: Greek Pantheon Role Call

I was planning on discussing this anyway, as I have been researching the Greek pantheon for an idea of what my followers will be expecting of me, as well as what I should be expecting of my followers, but Artemis's post has given me an idea. I really would like to pursue the idea of a family tree. I believe it would only benefit those of us in the pantheon, as a way of keeping track of each other and providing a support network, even if you don't want to believe in the family aspect. Having business connections, if nothing else, can only enable us to do our jobs better.

Or we can descend quickly into sexual chaos and violent feuding, the way the original pantheon did, my expectations are admittedly low. We are not, historically speaking, a nobly behaved bunch (Athena is especially known for being petty).

Without further ado, an INCOMPLETE family tree, done in tables until I can come up with a more efficient way of doing this, because seriously, this gets so quickly out of hand, mostly because SOMEONE (Zeus/Dad) cannot keep his dick in his pants. I have been up all night working on this. I know it's not pretty, I am not a web designer.

Primordial Gods	Gaia	Eros	Thanatos	Hypnos	Eris	Hyperion	Uranus
Olmpyian Gods	Hestia	Hades	Hera	Poseidon	Demeter	Zeus	Aphrodite
Child of Demeter				Persephone
Child of Zeus	Ares	Hephaustus	Artemis (Roxas)	Apollo	Hermes (Sonic)	Athena	Dionysus
The Muses (Also Zeus's children)	Calliope	Clio	Erato	Euterpe (Sheryl Nome)	Melpomene	Polyhymnia	Terpsichore
			Thalia	Urania
Child of Hermes and Aphrodite	Tyche	Rhodos	Peitho	Eunomia	Hermaphroditus	Abderus	Pan

There are others, but this was enough of a headache as it was, and I don't hate myself that much. Some of this may be wrong due to conflicting information (Aphrodite's parentage, for example), or because I am tired and don't care anymore. These are the primary gods and goddesses (and my children because I will need to keep track of them at some point). I already did the ones I know. Don't ask how I got pictures, please. I am a ninja, I have ways. Please comment below to be added to the... chart... if you're a part of the Greek pantheon. Please comment below if you're a part of the Greek pantheon that was not included on the chart, so I can make a place for you. You're probably one of Zeus's many other illegitimate children. If you don't know what pantheon you're a part of, please comment below, and I can find out for you.

Comment below if you feel like trolling! You're going to do it anyway, I might as well make this an open invitation event.

If you're worried about this ruining your relationships, don't worry about it. Aphrodite was married to Hephaestus, and the original Hermes still managed to have several children with her. Monogamy didn't matter much, and neither did incest. The Greek pantheon is a complete clusterfuck, as I said before.

I'm going to bed. I will deal with this in the morning, and as it pops up over the course of the day. You're all welcome.

You would jump on that, wouldn't you? Okay, so who are you going to marry, huh?

[birdstheword]

Maybe~! Who knows!

Does it matter who I marry? everyone is great on your list there!

[mybadhabit]

No, that's true, the current set is pretty wonderful, I will admit. I do have a few who will need to be added, still, and people who haven't yet made themselves known. As long as you don't marry Dionysus, I think you'll be fine.

[birdstheword]

Dionysus? I don't think I've met him yet! Or her? They're your sibling too according to the chart so why leave them out?

[mybadhabit]

I don't trust him. In the encounters I've had with him, he's behaved poorly, and he's made some very bad insinuations about my character. I have been trying to be civil with him, but he has continually escalated the situation unnecessarily. He may be a good person beneath it all, I know how you like to believe in people, but so far, he has not demonstrated this trait to me at all.

I really don't think he would treat you as anything more than a plaything for his own entertainment.

[birdstheword]

You gotta give it some time, Hermes. Dionysus could be like an onion! He's just got lots and lots of layers to him. I'm happy you're trying though! It shows what kind of heart you have. You're great Hermes!!

Who knows until we try? Buttttt i donno if I'm ready to marry yet. Hermes! I'm seventeen! You could adopt me! I'm sure my mom wouldn't mind while we're here!

[mybadhabit]

I'm blaming you and Sora for this. Normally, I wouldn't even try at all. You're making me go soft, and it's terrible xP

...Well, I already have seven other children, apparently, what's one more? I guess you're my daughter now. That means you have to come over and do my hair again, you know.

[birdstheword]

We're not doing anything! This is all you! You have a big heart, you just keep it wrapped up tight! There's nothing to be ashamed of! You'll still be the coolest ninja I know! ヽ(。ゝv･)ﾉ☆;:*

It's a deal!! It was lots of fun last time! I wanna play again!

[mybadhabit]

Lies and slander, I am a cold-hearted professional, and I like my job. When it's not boring, anyway.

But I am definitely the coolest ninja. That is a true, irrefutable fact. I am the best around.

It was. (◡‿◡✿) It was very peaceful.

[birdstheword]

work =/= life.
you can be professional all you want but that doesn't change your core. Hermes i donno if you know yourself as well as you think you do~!

best of the best. [Eventhough he's the only one around...but details!]

then we gotta do it again!!

[mybadhabit]

Yes, that's what people keep telling me. I'm not used to it yet; it's not something I can learn over night. Work did = life for a long time for me, you know that.

I know who I want to be, and I think that's enough.

[birdstheword]

Yes but this is sorta like a new life right? Hermes, i believe 100% that you can do anything you put your mind to! Just take your time with it and do what makes you feel best. You're right, if you who you want to be that is enough~!

I just want you to have fun! Fun with me is a double bonus tho! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°

[This is too nice for Sonic. He doesn't know how to respond to encouragement and response like this. Well, he does, but he can't flop against Hajime's side and hide his face in her shoulder while awkwardly trying not to smile. Guess there's really only one thing to do]
