♀ for a mother headcanon

They don't interact much ever since Aether decides that he doesn't like leaving his home in the sky. But they do see each other every time Nyx goes up in her chariot and starts her duty, and every time they'll exchange small smiles and he knows that his mother still love him all the same.

♂ for a father headcanon

You know how Aether always puts on cold attitude but actually that's because he's socially awkward? Well, he got it from Erebus. The older isn't the kind of father that openly shows his affections to his family, unlike Nyx, though it's still conveyed.

♖ for a sister headcanon

After his wife-sister Hemera, among Nyx’s daughters he likes the Hesperides the best. They are unlike the ever violent Keres and he likes how they’re always sweet and bright, sending him apples now and then, and in return he delivers them cloud-woven kilts made by the Nephelai.

ψ for a brother headcanon

Aether used to be very close to Hypnos, as he was the big brother that the Sleep adored the most. He would accompany the little daimon playing, back when Hypnos was alienated by the rest of their siblings, to the point that people remember, that if he's not in the Night's embrace, then he would most likely toddled right beside the Light.

↹ for a best friend headcanon

He is fond of Astraios and his family, but especially the Titan of Stars himself, for the similarity in their personality. When they spare some times to see each other, they usually just exchange greetings and ask for one another's condition before falling silent and start observing the mortals together.

▲ for an enemy headcanon

Aether is anti-Zeus, but he doesn't regard the King as an enemy. They exchange so few words, and most of them are carried through Hermes. None of them contain malicious threats or insults, as Aether tries to be as indifferent as possible, hoping that Zeus can tell that he still doesn't want anything to do with him and the Olympian gods. 

✻ for an old best friend headcanon

Before Astraios, he used to always hang out with Hyperion. Now that the Titan of Light remains in Tartarus and avoids needless interactions, he's no longer able to know the condition of the younger, aside from that Hyperion is as lovey dovey as always with Theia.

✤ for a grandparents headcanon

His grandmother is extraordinarily beautiful. Many agrees that Nyx inherits her subduing beauty. Due to the difference between their fields of jurisdiction, Aether doesn't interact much with Chaos, and only knows about her from his parents. Chaos herself doesn't have the initiative to approach her grandchildren and content with watching them from her post. 

☮ for a self headcanon

Although lives alone and with a lot of spare time, Aether rarely falls into deep thoughts about himself. He knows that he's awkward, but only condemn himself when conversations with people that he loves went wrong. When he's all by himself and with nothing to do, he doesn't try to evaluate his faults or anything.

✆ for an ex headcanon
