Well, apropos of my boyfriend taking his turn on Animal Crossing leaving me with empty hours to fill, how about a thread of @webtoon series keeping me sane?
First up! #LoreOlympus by @used_bandaid! You& #39;ve probably already heard of this one, and for good reason. It& #39;s a beautiful, thoughtful deconstruction of the myth of Hades and Persephone with SO much empathy for its characters. Fucking amazing, read it now!

Punderworld tends towards the lighter side & is a ton of fun. And the Olympian designs!! So good!!!

Did you know that there& #39;s a Webtoon adaptation of @rahdieh& #39;s #TheWrathandTheDawn, with art by @SilvesterVitale, @JeanKimArt, and @ITSURYUU?
This is a big rec for old school YA fans, the relationship dynamics reminded me lots of LJ Smith& #39;s stuff
