Medusa

If you could have dinner with any fictional character, who would it be?

We’d eat without out making eye contact; myself so I’m not turned into stone, she because her story is so horrific. I’d feed her whatever it is she loved before she was cursed, giving her at least an hour where she isn’t the monster she is made out to be.

A crime committed by a powerful man falls upon a woman’s shoulders, shoulders which were made to sag even before her monstrous transformation.

I’d ask her, as she should have been, if she’s okay. A question she probably won’t be asked for the rest of her immortal life.

There are so many Greek Myth’s where the main protagonist were wronged by the God’s, given heinous punishments for things out of their control, but hers were truly abhorrent.

She is not my favourite character by a long shot, but she is the one that stays with me throughout life.
