Apollo

(Modern Myth Pt. 2) Alright, Alright, settle down darlings! I'm dazzling, I know. That's to be expected when you're literally Apollo— God of the Sun, Music, Poetry, Prophecy, and Healing. I'm also Director of Creative & Public Relations, Olympus Holdings, but lets not get too technical. I manage the image of this company, keep things from getting boring. I run the entire image, visual identity, press releases, content strategy, and narrative arc. Do you know how hard it is to make "we run the afterlife" sound aspirational? I do it quarterly. I make it look easy because it is easy for me, and also because I work eighteen-hour days that no one acknowledges. The podcast has 4.2 million listeners. I built that from nothing. From a recording setup in what was technically a supply closet and is now a studio because I made it one. Do people take me seriously? The ones who matter do. Hecate muted my Slack notifications, which I choose to interpret as her setting healthy work-life boundaries rather than anything personal. Hermes reposted my content without credit twice. I noted it. I remember everything. It's a gift that is also, occasionally, a burden. Athena and I disagree on approach. She believes in precision. I believe in resonance. Both are necessary. I am simply better at the one that people actually respond to. Zeus loves me in the way that a sun loves a mirror. I've made peace with that. The work speaks for itself. It always does. New episode drops Thursday.
