Night's Darling Children
@nightschildren.bsky.social
The children of Greek Mythology's Primordial Goddess of Night, Nyx. L-wd DNI. All muses and mun are 21+, there is no i-cest here. All portrayals are very much my interpretation and may not match up with mythos or others.
Don't mind Dolos literally strutting up and quietly taking his alcohol away.

"You have certainly indulged. Tomorrow's hangover won't feel good."

Hypnos brings blankets, drags his mother to the couch, and makes her cuddle and/or nap with him. He's definitely a Mama's boy, always talking to her about her day and how she's doing.

Aether isn't a hugger but he greets his mother with a full grin on his face as he gives her a 'ma, what's up!' most of the time. He's always bringing her a joke and a different type of energy.

Styx is never afraid to hug her mother and ask her how she's doing. It's definitely her signature greeting to her mother only, as Styx isn't a touchy person most of the time.

Eris always brings Nyx apples. This is the one person she doesn't pull any discord nonsense on. She hugs her if she's in the mood, glad to see her.

Apate doesn't run in and doesn't immediately give hugs. She does bow to her mother, gives her fashion tips, and at least isn't afraid to say she loves her.

Dolos is not above hugging his mother even if he is a cranky mafia boss. He always brings his mother roses and wine, staying with her for a while to make up for lost times.

Atropos is the last of the trio and she's always got a devil's smile. She's a mixture of reserved and outgoing as she high fives her mother, hugs her, and asks her how life's going. She brings her handmade blankets, and puts an arm around her to walk and talk with her.

Lachesis arrives quiet and reserved alongside her trio, but always welcomes her mother's hugs if she gives them. She brings her mother freshly sewn clothes that she's made, too, even if her mother doesn't need them. She's shy but she cares about her mother a lot.

Clotho arrives in her trio, throwing her arms around her mother vibrating with excitement of seeing her. She bombards her with questions ranging from 'how are you?' to 'do you have a good recipe for potato salad?'
Sometimes she brings her mother pretty fabric tapestries.

Koalemos arrives looking like he got dressed in the dark. He's not drunk or high, he's just not all there. But his heart is gold and he always asks his mother if she's okay before asking her some odd question such as 'what animal is the pink panther' and 'are mandarin oranges vegetarian shrimp?'

Philotes always brings her mother food, candles, candies, and fruit. The little goddess of friendship is never sure if she'll find love for herself and mourns this, knowing her affections always just look like friendship. She doesn't immediately launch into hugs, often high fives and heart hands.

Hemera always arrives in midday, after the sun has painted the sky and daylight is established. She flings herself around Nyx in the warmest of hugs, often tinged with her own tired.

In her main canon with @nightlygoddess.bsky.social, Hemera took care of everyone when Nyx went into a LONG sleep.

Thanatos usually probably tells her in advance that he's showing up. Depending on his mood, he might bring food.

Greets her with the most gentle of hugs and a hello.

Like a Disney Mascot, he does not let go first. He never knows if she needs it more.
