So for the mythologically challenged, this is Ganymede (the guy), and Hera (the girl). I know I've talked about Ganymede before, but as a refresher; Ganymede was basically Zeus' sex slave, notable for being the only male one. He was kidnapped by Zeus and then assigned to the pretty goddamn pointless job of "cupbearer" so that he could hang around Olympus with the gods and Zeus.
Hera, of course, is Zeus' wife, notorious in mythology for being (rightfully) jealous of all the people her hubby cheated on her with, including of course Ganymede, who LIVED WITH THEM.
In terms of this specific comic: I really want to bring Ganymede into our rp, but our rp is Underworld-based. How does Zeus' favorite Olympian find himself in the Underworld? By being pushed off Olympus by Zeus' wife, of course~
My headcanon for Ganymede is that he is immortal, but Zeus, fearing that he would run away from him, purposely altered his godhood so that he didn't get any of the normal teleportation & etc powers that are usually assigned to gods. So, uh. If he's stuck in the Underworld, he's stuck in the damn Underworld.

this filesize was so goddamn big that the program crashed twice, once erasing all of the color and making me redo the entire thing y a y
I like drawing Rane because I like coming up with pink girly outfits. Looking at my cast of characters, I don't get to do that very often.
And yes, that is one of Fjoer's feathers in her hat.

"“His eyes were light blue-green, they were so light. Like sea glass,” Loki says, and, for a moment, is lost in the memory of two brightly colored, freshly living children running around his legs in delirium, blissfully unaware that the color will be stolen from them in a few years to come.
He pushes the thought away— he reflects, it’s better this than nothing, it’s better this than nothing, he’d rather have his boys as wisps of washed-out shadow than not have them at all— but he retires to his bedroom at night and in his head sees light-blue-green-so-light-like-sea-glass colored ribbons swirling past his eyes, shining and vivid and ethereal and just as imaginary as the rosy peach-toned living visions of his children from long ago."

Hela has spent her entire life banished in a Norse Underworld, by herself with a whole bunch of spirits. If she ever finds a way to visit Elysium/Loki ever decides it's safe enough to bring the kids to her, I feel like she'd be so overwhelmed with Rane and Fjoer at first. I might draw more to outline that latter point.
