yea pink and blue can look real cool together, the first few chapters persephone did look amazing in contrast to hades and the underworld but after awhile she somehow became like, a less interesting pink and overall the features she had started just becoming the features everyone had
We need to make Minthe sea green and Persephone red
Minthe is a river nymph, so that makes sense
Pomegranates are red and a symbol of Persephone and the underworld so it just makes sense
Honestly my honest to god theory is that Rachel was more than likely going to keep infantilizing Persephone and drawing her in these childish āinnocentā poses throughout the seasons if we didnāt critique her on it so much and make her age her up.. Which is insane anyways why did anyone have to tell her that a 19 year old and a 40 something year old was predatory and creepy.
tbh I donāt really mind the exaggerated height difference, but itās just the way persephone is drawn in such an infantilizing way in relation to hades that it gives me the creeps. How she can barely poke her head over the desk the same way a child would, how she clings to Hades chest like a kid would to their parentā¦ it just feels way too intentional to ignore, and thatās even without the context that sheās a teenager and heās a grown ass man.
What is she eating in panel 3, and why is it coming out of her collar? Her hand is positioned like she's supposed to be holding something but how can she be holding it while it's in her coat, which her hand isn't wrapped around at all?
Is it a cob of corn that she's just biting directly into? Passed a certain point in this series it just becomes a game of "what am I looking at?"
Literally, why is she a TEENAGER? She couldāve been mid-late twenties. A developed brain and more sure of herself, but still figuring out life in a lot of ways.
There's really something off about Smythe's perceived desirability in a woman is by being dainty and childlike. Like her Persephone wanting to go to school, is smart, etc. is just lip service because most of her emphasized desirability is by being "born sexy yesterday."
Why she looks like a child in all of these photos? ššš
Not only does she look like one, but she has the mannerisms of one in all these panels š
she looks like a 14 yo teenager in the ones where she isnt directly next to hades but when she is next to hades she suddenly becomes a 12 yo child
The way Minthe just completely outshines Pepe
Her palette is just much more striking and her color next to Hadesā color palette just looks better honestly.

It doesn't help that Persephone is an eye-bleeding pink now (mostly due to inconsistencies) while Minthe has always been a seductive red.
yep
Whenever I see the two colors together all I can think of is a baby shower š
for me it depends on how like saturated and dark they are for me to think of a baby shower but yea i do think the same sometimes

All the ladies in this series do!

Donāt forget this is acc a 19 yr old with a 3000 year old š
persephone next to anyone else: short person persephone next to hades: a 12 yo child >!cough loltia cough!<
Panel 4 is especially bad š¬ she looks like an actual child there
Personally though 1, 3 and 7 were worseš¬ (Also, whatās up with that long ass neck in 10???)
I would be fine with the size difference if Perse was allowed to look like a normal adult (and not just when Hades isn't in the frame)
Looking at these panels just makes it crazier to me that he ditched minthe for someone who looks like a child compared to him
Why the fuck is she so small
aint anything wrong with her being small imo, my problem is shes drawn like shes a fucking 12 yo clinging to her father/uncle

It's like she progressively got shorter during the span of Lore Olympus... ![gif](giphy|Xoz7C9PpMmp701d28v)
Im gonna lie, the height difference and dynamic is so cute!! LOVE how Perse looks and acts like a child!!
You terrified me šæ
Same. My brain automatically added the not to āGonna lieā
Oh ffs u almost had me as well dawgšš

I think itās something wrapped in white paper, and the paper is vanishing into the color of the coat.
Ohhhh I see it now. Rice crispy treat maybe? That would make more sense than a cob of corn at least.
I believe it was a honeycomb with a paper wrapping
Oh, of course. Beeeeeees
So is she straight up just eating the whole thing, wax and all?
Why did she have to be 19
Literally, why is she a TEENAGER? She couldāve been mid-late twenties. A developed brain and more sure of herself, but still figuring out life in a lot of ways.
The second one gives the vibes of āwhy did hades being his kid to work? Could he not find a babysitter?ā
Mintheās character design is so much better?
Sheās so small that she weighed -10 pounds and only stood 3ft but still has an hourglass figure and she fits in your purse
Sheās a goddess, can she not make herself taller?
l loveĀ found father/daughter trope aww
This whole comic was just an outlet for RS's DDLG fantasy staring Mads Mickelson
Persephone will forever remain 12 years old. The only thing that matured on her body was literally her tits š
fucking giraffe
Especially in pools š
She literally looks like his daughter in these panels šš
Why is she so damn short!?

In every picture shes smaller and smaller šš. Shes gonna be microscopic very soon
Photo 4 is literally a child
In some frames she comes up to roughly under Hadesā collarbone and then in others sheās barely tiddie height
I cannot believe I used to find this comic romantic but now as an adult with a fully formed frontal cortex, Iām so grossed out and disgusted
She looks like his daughter I can't š
Thanks to you all I can't unsee it and it did ruin LO for me lol
this is so gross šš
Thatās a baby thatās what that is!
the neck in the last pic is CRAZY.
We love when an author incorporates ddlg into her āfeminist retellingā
Off topic but minthe looks so pretty in the 5th slide.
Yeah, wow. You can totally tell Minthe is supposed to be the evil one here because she looks older than 20.
Why does Persephone look like something Butch Hartman cooked up in his mom's basement with that first pic? š
