NOTE FOR CLARIFICATION: Obvious proof that Dionysius and Apollo have been here.
overdue, a hephaestus/hestia mythfic, pg(written for Lauren.)Hephaestus turns to the past — and the library — in the hope of finding answers.This was far outside his element. He was a man of his hands, a man of strength and fire and metal. This place was fragile and flammable, imposing in its intellectual depths. Philosophies made him dizzy, economics left him cross-eyed, and political history turned his stomach inside out. He had always been content to leave the written word to Athena, the higher echelons of thought to the likes of Psyche. He stood on firm ground with hammer, anvil, and forge. (4,317 words)

Reread it again this morning because REASONS. There’s no competing with Angie’s Hestia/Heph for ridiculous amounts of romantic.

fuckyeahthelito:

the subtle art (part one), a pygmalion/galatea, multi-character mythfic, pg-13 the designer and his muse — children of olympus in a very different way. but what could someone, someone with dark intentions, want with them? A simple confession and she felt weak and heartsick in its wake. Everything about this was wrong. How could she know up from down without her North Star? He was more than a husband, or a lover—she felt unreal without him, a face and figure without life or purpose. Only when he smiled at her, said her name, did she feel the turning of the world. She took her strength from him—without him, she was uprooted and tetherless. (6,006 words) [HERE]

zombres asked: LADYHAWKE. LAAAAAAAAAAAAAADYHAAAAAWKE. SO SO SO FORMATIVE. UGH UGH LOVE THAT MOVIE WITH EVERY BIT OF MY BEING. Hence why I am so fond of the name Isabeau and why I've been meaning to do my own take on the tale FOREVER. AHHHH.

Seriously, HOW amazing is it? Michelle Pfeiffer is so damn beautiful with her feathered (heh) pixie cut and tragic eyes. And I love love LOVE Mouse’s ongoing one-sided conversation with God.

But the music has got to go. I really wish that some kind of anniversary re-release (the 30th is in three years) would involve a rescoring of some kind. New music! I love 80s synth as much as the next girl (what would Labyrinth be without it?), but a serious high fantasy period film? Nah uh.

(Also, I’m celebrating because I got two inbox messages in one night! From two different people! On unrelated topics!)
