The Curse of the Styx
this is for @chaoticdumbassrogue continuation series part 2 of their Athenide Au “Of Manhattan”
This is amazing work and had me by the heart strings. Every part of this was absolutely amazing! The Styx and her emotional reactions to the oaths of the Big Three and their breaking of it (x2 Zeus! You dingus)
Thalia! Baby Thalia’s curse! aaah my baby girl! The Oracle! JASON!! aaah!
And the part that literally got me crying. Styx realizing who Percy *is/was/will be* and having to curse her anyway. The details of the curse she sets is just a chefs kiss of Angst and amazing writing.
Poseidon coming in and begging Styx to spare his daughter. To curse him instead had me on the floor with too many emotions.
A god being brought to his knees for the love and grief of his newborn daughter facing the fate he had bought her.
I had this image in my head of Poseidon literally begging a crying Styx who is in the midst of cursing baby Perseleia/Percy.
Ugh my heart! Take it from me for it bleeds too freely.
