Reply to comment by Nuada-Argetlam in [WP] When you learned your mother was a goddess, things finally seemed to fall into place. The other demigods laughed at you, the only child born to the goddess of the hearth, Hestia. But your power was so much more than they could dream of. by not_quite_graceful

There’s the one where she’s running away fro her rapey brother Haephestus, and she gets away, but some of his seed falls on her leg. She wipes it off, and where it falls to the ground a kid pops up. I think there is something about her keeping him locked in a chest.

This form of “birth by having semen fall on you” pops up in at least one other place: Aphrodite and all the children of Uranus and Gaia that came into being when he had his junk chopped off.

This is a writing prompt. You can make up your own version of Greek Myths. Humans have been doing it for at least 2k years. Hestia having a kid is easy to imagine given just how rapey the material is.
