thinking about stories where worship and devotion are the impetus of gods, and what that means for love between people- lovers, parents and children, dearest friends. thinking about gods each born from love between people. thinking about lares familiares and hobgoblins-kobolds-brownies and house spirits

#i think in any story where belief turns zeus to jupiter and the gods lose power as the roman empire beds christianity then falls #any story that goes 'the gods are dying/dead'#should have a note that the small gods are not going away #the lares specieces continues- not the same lares #but descendents each born of one family's love at a time before fading as even the ones in the height of power did #persisting exactly the same as before #the gods are dying/dead/being forgotten #zeus's power fades #and the lares too forget him as they outlive out last out love each generation to the next #hm. well ill put that somewhere in the carosel of ideas that spin around my head loosely connected to mythologies #anyway im gonna go back to writting whumptober drabbles ig
