Chapter Text
Okay one thing that is completely messed up and what I see very often (because this is what I employ my time with most of the time in context of Athena) is that people don't get what platonic means.
Here's the definition of it:
Platonic love is a type of love which is friendly or affectionate, but sexual desire is nonexistent, suppressed or sublimated.
(Source: Wikipedia)
It's inspired by the Greek philosoph Plato. And when we know the definition and see how Athena makes these weird kids (sorry) it is literally an example for platonic love like in a school book.
She talks with a man about things intelligent people talk I guess.
And that's it. It doesn't mean you let spawn infants out of your brain.
And by the way
I'm German. And for a presentation I needed to go on the Wikipedia article for Athena. And I saw this (I copied it in cuz I don't know how to make Screenshots in the text. If you know how; can you please tell me? Anyway):
Sie ging niemals eine Liebesbeziehung ein, daher auch der Beiname Parthénos „die Jungfräuliche“. Doch hauchte sie auf Bitten ihres Freundes, des Titanen Prometheus, den Menschen Wissen und Weisheit ein.
(Source: Wikipedia, article for Athena in German)
(Translation: She never entered into a romantic relationship—hence her epithet *Parthenos*, "the Virgin". Yet, at the behest of her friend, the Titan Prometheus, she breathed knowledge and wisdom into humanity.)
You can look after the article If you want I don't mind.
And sorry if I'm interpreting it wrong
But I have the feeling it says that she basically Had something like feelings for Prometheus because of the yet/doch.
I don't know how many people are German here so you can check it out.
And even then.
How are the children's made? With real godly DNA and thoughts? Only with thoughts? I don't get it. Okay I think that's a me problem but still.
And how do the children come out of her brain? How she came out of Zeus? Would the worst headache of all time?
Or are they random there.
I don't get anything on this.
Yes, I hope this made sense. I want to make it by the way, a series where I only post my shit thoughts about Percy Jackson like in my other work.
So if you liked it
You can give your theories or rant ideas. You can make discussions in the comments.
I don't mind.
