His favorite food is eggs because he kept being told minotaurs eat babies and eggs are babies so...makes sense to him.

Fun Fact: While in modern times incubus and succubus are gendered terms, in the original Latin they instead refer to if the being is a top or a bottom.

[@MrsLAnderson24]

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who knows that. My Latin teacher would have thrown a fit if she heard them gendering them like that.

@@MrsLAnderson24 Actually it kinda makes sense that they ended up gendered, remember they focused alot on sex through the middle ages, including telling ppl the proper way to have sex (missionary, cause monks are totally the ppl to tell you how to have fun times). The woman was expected to be the passive and the male the aggressive, so the idea of an "aggressive" woman vs a "passive" man would be vilified as demonic. So they probably got gendered that way. And because of gendered languages translating Latin probably too. Edit:. Kinda want an incubus b*tch now.

They become buddies. - The bull gets to enjoy these new things as he spend his entire childhood alone in a labyrinth. For the first time someone sees him as a friend. - The kid opens up about issues with his parents and school bullies. The bull starts to read books about parenting and child psychology to learn about different ways to help this kid out. - As the kid grows up, the bull decides to help out more children with the knowledge he's gathered throughout the years. He no longer wants to punish children, he is ready to protect them. To give them the childhood they deserve, the one he never got to have.

“Undine” by Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué is a German fairy-tale-esque story, which was actually part of my German A-levels curriculum. It’s also pretty misogynistic. I dont want to retell the whole story but basically Undine’s really outgoing, and lively, and uhh cheeky. And one day she meets a knight who she fancies and falls in love with, I think he likes her too. Anyways, they’d get married and do the dirty and then the next morning she’s like a completely different person. Suddenly she’s quiet and reserved and has become like the perfect housewife. This is because, by marrying a human, she got a soul. (Which is like super fucked imo on various levels but i digress). Her husband knight now no longer fancies her and basically falls for a different and noble woman, who Undine actually befriended. One day all three of them they go on a long boat ride down a river. Undine’s uncle, who has been trying to break them apart the whole story, steal a necklace from that other woman. So Undine gets her a different one from the river. But unfortunately her knight husband has had enough of this and of her uncle and so he curses/ insults her while they’re still on the water. Now this is a huge no no - he was not allowed to do that. And so Undine gets pulled into the water and is forced to live in the kingdom of her people in the sea of something. Her husband, who of course thinks Undine is dead, now wants to marry that other woman. Undine warns him in a dream that, if he does that, she’ll have to kill him. He does it anyway. So Undine comes out of the water, kisses her husband, and cries him to death.

The sheer and pure excitement over the imagery of a blemmy was the best thing. Jacob yelling "OOOOOOHHHH YESSSSS" while Karina simultaneously screams in pure joy in the background is golden. Also, giving them the name "blelf" just made me think of "belf" from World of Warcraft.

The fact that the minotaur was half human... I'm tearing up

[@FloweyFanClub]

A chair is a piece of furniture with a raised surface supported by legs, commonly used to seat a single person. Chairs are supported most often by four legs and have a back; however, a chair can have three legs or can have a different shape. Chairs are made of a wide variety of materials, ranging from wood to metal to synthetic material (e.g. plastic), and they may be padded or upholstered in various colors and fabrics, either just on the seat (as with some dining room chairs) or on the entire chair. Chairs are used in a number of rooms in homes (e.g. in living rooms, dining rooms, and dens), in schools and offices (with desks), and in various other workplaces. A chair without a back or arm rests is a stool, or when raised up, a bar stool. A chair with arms is an armchair; one with upholstery, reclining action, and a fold-out footrest is a recliner. A permanently fixed chair in a train or theater is a seat or, in an airplane, airline seat; when riding, it is a saddle or bicycle saddle; and for an automobile, a car seat or infant car seat. With wheels it is a wheelchair; or when hung from above, a swing. An upholstered, padded chair for two people is a 'loveseat', while if it is for more than two person it is a couch, sofa, or settee; or if is not upholstered, a bench. A separate footrest for a chair, usually upholstered, is known as an ottoman, hassock, or pouffe.

Actually succubus comes from the latin word "succubare" which means "to lie under" and incubus comes from the latin word "incubare" which means "to lie on". So incubi are always tops and succubi are always bottoms. Gender doesn't matter at all.

[@rachelcookie321]

I actually remember reading about the Blemy awhile back. So apparently they originate from a tribe in Africa that Europeans used to trade with. Except the Europeans never met with these people close up and only ever saw them from a distance. I believe they traded with them through some Arabic people. Because this tribe lived in the dessert they wore head scarves to protect their heads and these head scarves would completely cover their head. Because the European people were seeing them from afar, it would look like the people had no head and were just wearing a hat. So people assumed their face must be on their chest. I might of gotten some of the details a bit wrong but that’s the general gist of it. I think was the Romans who mainly traded with them. And of course many few people actually got to travel there to do the trades so information spreading through weird just helped amplify the myths.

[@emberhermin52]

That is hilarious

[@patchesaregreat1217]

I read a thing at some point and I think it said that eventually the myth evolved into them showing up to cheer up sad people, so when they said "the blemy is just chillin" they were kinda correctt

I collect music about Greek and Roman mythology, and as soon as y'all started talking about the minotaur I couldn't NOT mention my absolute favorites!! Moonface has a series of 7 songs about the minotaur on the theme of forgiveness, of him forgiving Pasiphae, the island of Knossos, Minos, Theseus, Daedalus, the white bull, and Poseidon. theyre absolutely lovely and I cant recommend this set of tunes enough if you enjoy mythology!
