Children of Medusa headcanons
They would be immune to their mother's powers
I believe Medusa's children would be afraid of the ocean. They wouldn't go anywhere near it, and if they were at the beach, they would stay on the sand/land, far away from the water.
They would have the ability to speak and understand snakes. (Parseltongue!!!)
They would have a strong hatred for Poseidon and Athena's children on sight.
The children of Medusa would probably have recognized when someone was suffering from any type of abuse or assault like a sixth sense or something
Their hair can go from snakes to normal hair
They wear sunglasses as kids since they can't control their powers from a young age
Unlike their mother, their eyes turning people to stone power isn't permanent, but that person is stone for a long period of time.
Medusa would be such a helicopter parent (you can't tell me otherwise)
Their eyes would turn into snake eyes when using their powers
The children would definitely have the charm speak ability. It's kind of similar to Kaa the snake from jungle book, but instead of eye hypnosis, it's voice hypnosis, like sirens.
Snake themed jewelry (tell me I'm wrong)
The children of Medusa would definitely look out for each other and other demigod kids who feel like outcasts.
The Medusa cabin would definitely be seen as bad news and outcasts
I feel like maybe they could detect if someone was lying
They are devoted and loyal to fault
They would all probably inherit their mothers beauty
Often misunderstood
Medusa would probably claim her children by either her head hanging over her children or a snake above their heads
All I got for today. Enjoy. And let me know what you think

As punishment for his cruel rejection of the nymph Echo, Nemesis cursed Narcissus to fall in love with his own reflection in a pool of water. Unable to take his eyes away from the beautiful youth he did not recognise as himself, Narcissus stayed by the side of the water until he wasted away.
I’ve been wanting to draw more mythology pieces for a while now! Here is my interpretation of Echo and Narcissus, a Roman myth from Ovid's Metamorphoses.

Dionysus and Ariadne for @margaretkart! She's wearing the famous Minoan priestess outfit with belt, apron and flounces, with a pose inspired by classic romance comic artist Nell Brinkley.

1. This is how the story goes. A boy raised in captivity falls in love with a sun he sees for the first time, flies too close thinking he can possess it, doesn't listen to a father's warning and plummets into the sea. His father grieves, so everyone grieves. The story is immortalised in the boy's blood, a tale passed down with silkdelicate care through eternity.
2. There is another story. In it a boy asks too many questions, lusts too much for more, dares to question his father's authority. He is banished from the skies, sent falling from the heavens but he does not die. Instead he is named ruler of all that is cruel, painful and wretched with the world. No one grieves for this boy, as he is deemed the root of all evil.
3. It is the way of the universe for boys to disobey their fathers, for children to question what they know and want more, more from their lives.
4. The way a father chooses to love after this happens is how the story is told.
5. This is the reason everyone weeps for Icarus.
6. It is also the reason no tears were ever shed for Lucifer.
Icarus and Lucifer, Nikita Gill
