alright this is annoying me! medusa wasn’t a rape victim in greek mythology!
 there’s no existing greek poet who ever wrote about that origin for her. she was born a gorgon with her two sisters stheno and euryale. perseus’ who was roughly about a teenager when he killed medusa, did so to save his mother because the king of the island they washed up on, wanted his mother, and wanted to rid himself of perseus, so he charged perseus to bring him the head of medusa, a vicious gorgon, in which the king was sure that perseus would be turned into stone like many many others. athena & hermes aided him; athena gave him a shield & hermes gave him his winged sandals. using this mirror athena gave him, he was able to turn the tides on medusa because he could see her reflection without being turned to stone, he then cut her head off.
stop using ovid’s version as the greek version, roman and greek as much as people love to make jokes that romans copied greeks, they have their differences including this myth.

Deadly beings to look at. The mortal Gorgon, Medusa, was famously slain by the hero Perseus shortly after he swindled the location of their home from their nearby sisters, the Graeae. There, from the blood of spewing from her neck, her sons Pegasus and Chrysaor were born. Far later, the Roman poet Ovid painted Medusa and her sisters in a completely different light. Rather than being born monsters, in Ovid's telling Medusa and her sisters were cursed by Athena due to Medusa being violated by Poseidon in Athena's temple.

hc that stheno and scylla used to date, and while scylla eventually broke up with stheno when she realized the relationship didn't make her happy, stheno never got over her. decades down the line, stheno would still try to get with scylla, even after scylla started seeing eryn. she only really stops trying to make a move after medusa's s2, although she still has feelings for her
