Popping out at chapter 52 to say I’m getting slightly irritated at how often Hestia just babies and fusses over Caelus. Like yes, he is depressed as heck and was suicidal. But like… even when HE initiates certain actions, she’s always so quick to jump in and try to talk him down and just… seems to want to keep him locked in his room the entire time and doing nothing.
Maybe I’m just uneducated and this is just how you’re meant to look after a suicidal depressed person but I’m just like ‘girl, can you let him have SOME agency in his life? Yes, he’s still mentally recovering but he’s also a fully grown man. If he says he wants to go to the Palace or go somewhere that may have some sore memories, it’s his prerogative and you should support him, not hinder him.” The level of kids safety gloves she’s treating this man with.
