#OOOOOr Atalanta and Hippomenes?!?!

[hanadoesstuffwrong]

We all know and love zutara's Hades & Persephone parallels. Complimentary opposites constantly being misunderstood as a captor/victim- badboy/goodgirl- edgy/sunshine trope despite significant nuances; being torn between familial and spousal devotion; ruling over their kingdom as equally powerful forces of nature... Good good stuff.

But may I humbly suggest that we have been woefully neglecting the sheer dramatic potential of taang x Eros & Psyche.

#lonely rich girl reduced to the sum of her physical traits x flighty boy of god-like power c'mon ppl #i feel there is something to be said here #the emphasis on sight and knowing somebody by their soul instead of their face?? #turns out there's some animosity between H&P and E&P fans that I was not aware of until today #like yeah there's lots of bad takes on H&P floating around and E&P deserves more attention #but there are literally two cakes ppl #stop pitting two of the only functional marriages in this mythos against eachother! #it's literally mythology there is no 'canon' stop being annoying #zutara #taang #my posts #atla #other thought im chewing on is which mythological love story works for sukka?? #Ariadne and Dionysus maybe?? #OOOOOr Atalanta and Hippomenes?!?! #was this an excuse to get out my thoughts on greek mythology discourse? maybe #eros and psyche has been my favourite greek myth for nearly the last decade and i need ppl to know #fr context i highly recommend the overly sarcastic productions videos on yt! #zuko x katara #toph x aang #in this house we love Hades & Persephone and Eros & Psyche equally thank you very much
