OK, so I get that Connie is a milf - like, comparable to Sally Jackson in terms of Hot Mom Power (tm) - but how, how, did she manage to get the attention of Ares?
Like, was she just ready to throw hands one day and the god was like "me like", or what? I mean, we know that Mars like Frank's mother because she was a solider, but why was he drawn to Connie?
Essentially, what is the origin of GodKill au Toby?
So, you see in the past I have read multiple fanfictions that are Connie-centric or where Lyra’s revived (somehow) and in those she’s pretty badass and straightforward plus she’s clever in them, so I hate the whole “oblivious parent” trope
So my main inspiration for her in the GodKill AU was:
Joyce Byers from Stranger Things
Well first off, both are badass moms, and both of their young sons went missing in canon lore
So I guess Ares was drawn to Connie because of her personality and I headcanon that Connie is a high profile detective in the GodKill AU, so that’s pretty badass in my own opinion
But essentially how both Connie and Ares met is pretty vague
(Let’s pretend that she didn’t care/know about Nico being a serial killer working for Slenderman)
And for the origin of GodKill Toby
I guess he would’ve been conceived because Connie and Ares kind of tried (?) to have a relationship but then a year after Toby was born they had to part ways because Connie found out about Ares being the God of War
Also, Connie can see through the Mist
I guess Toby’s early life was fine until Connie got with his dad because he abused them but then she divorced him and they moved away
I guess Lyra can also see through the Mist too
After moving away with his mom and Lyra, Toby’s life started to calm down for a while, until he had to go on quests and the whole “Hey Mom! I’m currently living with a deadly eldritch god, and I also got a boyfriend! His name’s Nico by the way.”
