Persephone: frantically tries to find the rest of the pomegranate to eat

[nathanalexander]

Persephone really should've ate the whole fruit let's be real

[iheartmyhoody]

I just imagine Demeter frantically singing mother knows best from tangled and Persephone just sticking the middle finger up while eating a pomegranate

[ultimatecatnerd]

Six months later.
Zeus: “So why isn’t she in trouble again?”
Demeter: “Because I have to look like a good supportive mother or my reputation with the mortals is that of a overwhelmingly protective mom who can’t live with out her child.”
Hypnos: “But isn’t that what you are?”

[DJVirgoNeun]

Persephone: *slowly holds up middle finger at Demeter before descending into the Underworld*

[riches]

fun fact
Zagreus inherited his mom's rebel side and most of the time hanged out in above world hunting animals and resurrecting dead humans.
Hades did not like either.

Don't you get together with your uncle! Jokes on you, mom!

[justin]

Damn, Persephone really did a forty-six-second speedrun of her own story just to spite Demeter. 🤣

Persephone eats the pomegranate
Demeter;nOt oN mY waTch

[anAcedCoffee]

It was the "don't you get together with your uncle" that slapped me in the face with the genealogy of the greek pantheon again

[johnmartin]

Persephone: You’re making my life miserable
Demeter: oh I’m making your life miserable? You live in a garden paradise! You know where I lived when I was young? In my Father’s stomach because he ate me as a baby!

[whippethacreem]

6 months later
Demeter: PERSEPHONE! Now that you're back you're in so much tro- What the hell is that
Persephone: Im 5 months screw you!
Demeter: * Angry Karen noises *

[skyeschlueter]

The best part of this skit by far is how it never cuts back to Persephone, it's just Demeter yelling at her daughter.

[alicevicariously]

Where was this guy when I had to learn mythology in class?

[madzcore]

The amount of times he said “don’t you”

[dhampir_days]

only part missing is Demeter calling her "Kore" and screaming "DON'T YOU CHANGE YOUR NAME TO MEAN DESTROYER!"

[crilledgheese]

Demeter at one point in time: Go to hell, Persephone
Persephone: And I took that personally

[psychosweetheart]

I imagine Persephone keeping eye contact with Demeter the whole time

[TheTendermen]

I do like comparatively, Hades is the best spouse among the Greek gods

[avalasialove]

Hilarious! But y’know what would’ve made it more convincing? Have Demeter call Persephone by her original name, Kore. You know you’re in trouble with Mom when she uses your full name or your real name.
