make me choose: artemis or athena (for @j-murphy)
“Choose me
Artemis boldly declares.
Choose silver and moonlight and freedom,
Wildness and the hunt. Choose sisterhood
And be a legend for all time.
I already found you your bow.”
- Grace Babcock

Who You Should Fight: Greek Gods Edition

   Zeus: Don't fight Zeus. You'll only end up sleeping with him. On second thought, do fight Zeus.
   Hera: Look, I'm not saying anyone is really going to try to stop you, but I am saying she is petty as shit and will dedicate the rest of your life to destroying you in other ways. Your call.
   Poseidon: You could probably fight Poseidon. Dude is built like a brick shithouse but he'd think it was a good time and buy you a beer afterwards.
   Demeter: Are you fucking kidding? She created a new season the last time someone really pissed her off. Do not fucking fight Demeter.
   Hades: Fight Hades, but only in spring, and then ask to see pictures of his dog.
   Hestia: Are you Satan
   Aphrodite: Arguably the lowest reward to risk ratio on this list. What is even the point here. Might as well save us all some time and punch yourself in the groin.
   Athena: If you must, a sneak attack is required, and even then you’re still probably boned. Alternately, distract her first with statements such as "Mozart is an overrated hack" and "Garfield is not funny."
   Hephaestus: You could beat Hephaestus. You could not beat Hephaestus' robot army. Do not fight Hephaestus.
   Ares: Absolutely fight Ares. This is a no-brainer. Literally everyone wants you to kick Ares' ass including Ares. You might feel bad when he starts crying but only if you are weak.
   Artemis: Do not fight Artemis. Do not talk to Artemis. Do not look at Artemis. Do not think about Artemis.
   Apollo: What did I just fucking say
   Hermes: You could beat him if you could catch him, but you can't, and even if you did, he would convince you to talk it out instead, buy you a drink, and be gone before you noticed your wallet was missing. Avoid.
   Dionysus: Dionysus is an easy fight until he decides not to be. You could fight Dionysus but under no circumstances force him to give a shit.
   Persephone: Don't fight Persephone. She will beat you up. Her mom will beat you up. Her husband will probably also be unpleasant and disapproving in some way. Listen to trash pop with Persephone instead.
   Hebe: Idk man, she bites.
   Iris: Yo have you ever tried to punch a rainbow?
   Heracles: Dude has seen some shit. You may think you're bad enough but you really aren't. There is literally no way this could end well for you. Do not fight Heracles.
   Nike: Goddess of victory. Why would you even try?

_{MYTHOLOGY MEME | [10/9] GREEK GODS & GODDESSES » DEIMOS & PHOBOS}
Twin sons of Ares and Aphrodite, Deimos and Phobos were two gods associated strongly with the battlefield. Deimos was the god and personification of terror, while Phobos was the god and personification of fear. They were both known to accompany their father Ares (the god of war), Eris (the goddess of discord), and Enyo (the goddess of war and destruction) into the battlefield and presented the fearful and brutal nature of war and its effects on a persons mind.

_{shed down a kindly ray from above upon my life, and strength of war, that I may be able to drive away bitter cowardice from my head and crush down the deceitful impulses of my soul. restrain also the keen fury of my heart which provokes me to tread the ways of blood-curdling strife. rather, O blessed one, give you me boldness to abide within the harmless laws of peace, avoiding strife and hatred and the violent fiends of death.}
