Yup - back with the "Beyblade Burst God AU x Epic: The Musical" crossover!
We're still on the song "God Games", but since the Apollo and Hephaestus parts haven't been released yet, we're going straight to Aphrodite's part!
I drew Akira singing as Aphrodite, mostly because they're both the Gods of Love and I just decided to be simple with my choice.
Several of the gods from my God AU could sing as Aphrodite, though I think Akira fits the bill, not just because he's the God of Love. As the patron of affection, he believes that those with mutual love for each other, whether it be parent and child, siblings, or parents, should treat each other with fairness and respect. In his mind, Odysseus failed to do this by spending so long at sea and leaving his mother to die alone, even though she'd waited so patiently for him to return. With that way of thinking, he believes that Odysseus deserves whatever horrors and punishments that might come his way. So his first answer to Aiger is "leave him".
Akira acts cutesy and cheerful, yet he has nothing but a heart of ice for those who disrespect the ones who love them.
Here's the part of the song that the drawing was based off of, animated by the lovely Gigi! I'll get back to you guys with Ares' part!
