“I learned to put my keys in between my fingers to use them as a weapon if I needed to” as a Universal Woman Experience.................
.....as someone who was in Krav Maga, I have serious questions
!!TW: Assault!!
About the current situation:
There's a streamer, Caitibugzz, making an allegation that some people believe is directed towards Georgenotfound. She doesn't name him, and the details are somewhat confusing, but people are making that connection. I'm not entirely convinced myself, mostly due to the number of people involved not adding up for dteam.
Her allegation is that while drunk in a hotel room in summer 2023 with several other people, he touched her several times, the first time she only describes it as "sticking his hand under her clothing and asking if she was ticklish" although she does not say where. And then "touching her in certain areas to make her lose the phone game that she was playing". She alleges that he contacted her on instagram, although no specifics are provided. That he left the hotel room at the same time as her, and asked her to get in the elevator with him, she refused and he left. She never describes telling him to stop, although she does describe being very uncomfortable.
I have mixed feelings on her allegations myself. She uses very flowery language when talking about things and colors statements without actually providing details, she doesn't actually discuss where she was touched at all and that context really matters. Like, a drunk guy poking you in the side right under your shirt has an extremely different context than a guy groping at you under your clothing. Or someone tapping your shoulder to make you lose a phone game vs touching elsewhere.
Without that context, it's really hard for me to know how I feel about this. If her allegation is directed towards George, and it's "while we were drunk, he poked me in the side and then tapped me on the shoulder to make me lose a phone game" then that's something I feel extremely differently about than "while we were drunk he groped me in front of other people". One can easily be a misunderstanding and someone not behaving appropriately while drunk and thinking everyone's having fun, the other is assault. I'd want more context there and for George to be able to make a response if this is about him before I'd cast judgement.
Echo's Extensive List of Greek Mythology Headcanons
Hermes and Iris race for fun in their free time (Hermes beats Iris but only because she lets him keep his magical shoes on)
Ares goes into full on protective older brother mode when someone makes fun of Hephaestos except when it's Aphrodite
Aphrodite and Eros scheme together over who should be the next OTP
Hera is a really sweet stepmom to her godly stepchildren after she gets over her initial grudge (that ones not 100% untrue, she's mostly pretty nice to them after she's gotten through her murdering phase, given the child survives that phase)
Ariadne got the ability to create powerful illusions and confusions in people heads after she married Dionysus (being the wife of the god of madness i think might give you that quirk also it fits the labyrinth)
Nyx scares the underworld out of everyone except her children and Selene who comes over for a drink every now and then (also not entirely unbased at some point she scares zeus away when he's after her kid Hypnos (mother of the year) Selene literally never interacts with her but i can imagine them gossiping like 40 y/o wine mums for some reason)
Thanatos is really touched by the people he has to take to the afterlife, when its a child he carries it in his arms or takes them by the hand the entire way into the underworld
Charon hums while he crosses Styx to cheer up the souls (it comes of as horribly creepy but he's trying his best you guys)
Whenever Persephone is in the underworld the place is full of colourful flowers cuz she thinks asphodels are too bland by themselves
Demeter keeps a collection of all the plants that used to be people until they were cursed/transformed to passive-agressivly assert dominance
Athena takes her owl everywhere she goes, unfortunately it's not very fond of mortals, Odysseus is freaking terrified of that bird
The nine muses have to approve and critique every piece of music Apollo writes, there usually isn't anything to critique but he still really values their opinion
Artemis constantly makes fun of her brother for being love sick but she keeps a box full of sweet dates under her place at the banquet table in case she needs to cheer him up
Artemis takes in girls that are survivors of abuse or assault and helps them get revenge on the pderson that wronged them even if they aren't virgins anymore
Apollo and Artemis constantly annoyed Helios and Selene when they were little like: Uncle Helios can i ride in the chariot with you? Dad said you have to let me come with you! Please, just for a little bit, I'm not gonna set anything on fire again, I promise!
Hestia is extremely gentle and soft spoken yet nobody dares to talk back to her or interrupt her (once again kinda plausible since she's the oldest, also both Apollo and Poseidon proposed marriage to her which she politely declined, there's zero consequences for that which is odd seeing how Apollo and Poseidon usually react to rejection)
Feel free to add your own lol
I know these are mostly completely unbased but I've been reading Greek mythology since I was like 4 and this is just what I imagined these characters would be like
Also! There's some lesser known gods on here so to clear up some confusion
Iris: Goddess of rainbows and messenger of the gods together with Hermes
Eros: God of love, Aphrodite's son
Ariadne: Dionysus' wife, helped Theseus beat the minotaur by helping him out of the labyrinth
Nyx: Goddess of the night
Thanatos: God of death (not the dead, that's Hades), son of Nyx
Charon: The ferryman that carries the dead on his ship over the underworld river styx
Hypnos: God of sleep, son of Nyx
Selene: Goddess of the moon, until later mythology where she was often merged with Artemis
Helios: God of the sun, until later mythology were he was often merged with Apollo
Have a great day💕
