#Chronus
Text
I'm taking a Classics course this year and it's extremely funny to me that, while some versions do make Kronos into Greek-Satan, in most versions Zeus eventually just... like... releases Kronos after a few centuries.
It's like "Hey dad, yeah, you and the other Titans can come out now. I think ya'll've learned your lesson, just no more eating your kids, K?" And Kronos just... accepts his son's rule. It's honestly hilarious.
From a historical perspective it's meant to be reflective of the Athenian banishment system where you got to return after ten years or so, but it's also endlessly funny to me. Zeus just has his ex-con cannibal father puttering around occasionally offering advice and its usually terrible.
It's even funnier in Roman mythology because in that series of events Saturn (Roman Kronos) and the Titans go to Italy and rule over a Golden Age while making ready for Jupiter and the other Gods to come over with Aneas once the Trojan War is over.
So, I'm proposing an alternative version of Percy Jackson. While the Greeks were fighting the secondd Titan War, the Romans just have to like, settle a dispute between Jupiter and his geriatric father over some bullshit. It's be hilarious.

I'm gonna rant about wikipedia
a great website, I love wikipedia
not perfect though
and that can be seen on the wiki page for Chronos:
"Khronos or Chronus, is a personification of time in pre-Socratic philosophy and later literature. Chronos is frequently confused with, or perhaps consciously identified with, the Titan, Cronus, in antiquity, due to the similarity in names."
I hate this
a lot
and I assume this is where many misconceptions I've heard come from
this is worded as though it's incorrect, or non-standard
"confused" no, they weren't confused, religion is just very fluid, a lot of Greeks considered Chronos and Kronos to be the same god (most to my knowledge in fact, many even confidently stating that Kronos was just another spelling of the word for time, Chronos), this isn't them "being confused"
it's possible that Chronos and Kronos were separate beings originally, who got syncretized, this is common
it's also possible that they were always the same, and some later groups separated them (notably the Orphics)
for the most part
it's fair to consider Chronos, and Kronos, the same god, except in some contexts (such as Orphism), and I dislike wikipedia's wording here

What is your chrono design?
Do you mean Kronos? I don't have any design for him since he hasn't appeared in my comics so far. It's possible that he might show up in a flashback some time, but right now I don't have any definitive plans for it.

Random Escaped Audios character headcanons (semi domestic... Idk?)
Escaped and Jean sleep with socks on, a habit they picked up in prison.
Escaped also sleeps with the mask on sometimes. And only in his boxers... And socks. Sexy. Seductive, even. 😂
Jean sleeps in whatever he wore that day minus the pants. Crinkled dress shirts all the way. (if he even gets sleep that is) On really bad days, before the intern, he just threw on pants the next day and was ready to go. (yes he did shower... But he put his old clothes back on)
Precious baby boy Ivan (actually adorable dilf... ESCAPED NO YOU DID NOT SEE THAT!!!😳) sleeps in matching pyjama sets and even got some for Raven and Paloma so they all three can match! of course the pj's are bird themed!
Now that I'm on a "what they wear to bed" trip... Alphonso does the classic t-shirt and boxers combo, jogging pants if he's cold. Plus a hoodie if he's really cold. Which is rare. Or... Well... His slayer uniform.
Benji does the t-shirt boxer combo too. All year. He mostly wears his old college (or band👀) tees to sleep.
You cannot convince me Crow "i don't have use for t-shirts" doesn't (didn't 😢) sleep butt ass naked. Either that or fully... Clothed? As clothed as he is. Leather harness shoulder bracer and all. There's no in between.
Enough of the sleep hc's... 🙈 Onto the random stuff
Nap dates with Jean!
Escaped has a sweet tooth. Also LOVES home cooked meals. After all the junk in prison, he loves the times in between where he gets to eat real food. If he could choose between take out or home cooked it's home cooked all the way. (one of the goons is a fantastic cook)
He misses his mom's food, though.
Escaped does finger guns all. The fucking. Time. Like...🧍‍♂️... 👉👉...🧍‍♂️
Alsoooo... Escaped and spiderman kisses!
I have many feelings about our slutty villain soo... He's a cuddler. Big time. Won't admit it, but likes being the little spoon (kinda mentioned in the audio). Will also lie on top of you if he catches you lying around, and put his head on your tiddies or tummy.
Crow has one of those photo calendars on his desk. It's with cats. Doesn't use it for calendar stuff... Only has it for the pictures. Gets new ones every year but keeps the old ones in a drawer in his desk.
Benji, our precious marine biologist (yes shh i know it's not exactly his job), is the same but with sea animals.
Also... Benji makes mixtapes. Not just early into the relationship, but also after he got married. It's his anniversary gift. Literally spends all year compiling a playlist, and a movie watchlist for datenights!
Picnic beach dates with Benji!
And forest or bird watching dates with Ivan (birbs☺️)
Also 100% convinced Ivan manages to befriend the crows he's feeding & playing with and they bring him gifts in return.
Jean likes his hair to be played with. (shout out to @stupd000 for saying he likes having his hair pulled🙈)
He also learns more songs on the ukulele and he and the intern sing together. Not very well, but it's cute. When the singing gets too bad, one would just kiss the other to shut them up.
Alphonso keeps souvenirs of the places he visits on hunts and keeps them in his room at the slayers' stronghold when he's there.
Jean is a bit jittery from all the coffee he drinks. Goes through withdrawl after escaping the mafia. But now he's down to the normal amount of coffee for a day (like... 2-4 cups a day)
Ivan will come and wrap his arms around your waist and rest his head on your (Raven's) shoulder while you two cook together. Will steal bits of food, too.
Ivan does wood carvings sometimes. He carved a little raven for Raven. Paloma painted it hot pink, she's very proud of it!
Once at safety, Jean adopts a stray dog... which turn into three.
Ivan will totally bring home injured animals (especially, ofc, birds) and nurse them back to health.
Okay I think that's all I can come up with for now
