First off, congrats to Jsottri for getting EVERY SINGLE ONE RIGHT! You rock!

Blackpaw29 came in second (I think there were a couple you never gave answers for, but you still came really close and you're awesome too!)

And then Ri2 came in third with five guesses correct, which is definitely not bad for a first time! Bravo!

And then one of my two guest reviews on came in fourth. I liked your guesses, but they weren't quite right, though you're now about to see what I was thinking of while writing this thing.

(But to elphiegranger2508 and my other guest review on , I am well aware that some of the Gods are misgendered in this fic, but that was intentional. Since each one was supposed to line up with a Supergirl character, the misgendering was supposed to act as a clue about who was who. I know the Gods' correct genders and any "mistakes" in this fic were not only intentional, but were supposed to be clues to help you guess better. Sorry if that wasn't clear).

Thank you all for "playing" and I'm glad you enjoyed this little game. (Hope it wasn't too hard or easy). Now here's the answers and explanations:

Zeus is J'onn. J'onn's the Papa Bear of the family and the leader of Olympus (the DEO). He's also said to be one of the few other aliens that Superman respects and fears as something of an equal (strength wise). IDK the exact power comparison between Superman and the Green Martian, I just know that J'onn is powerful enough that even Superman admits it. You've got to be pretty strong to get Superman's approval. J'onn's also got a stormy expression. Him and his disapproving non-smile, LOL.

Poseidon is Superman. Just because he lacks J'onn's "Papa Bear" and "Leader of Olympus" status, Superman is Poseidon. But that's no small feat either. Those who know the stories know that Poseidon is just as scary as Zeus and even if Zeus is stronger than Poseidon, Poseidon is still no pushover. (The Odyssey).

Hades is Lena. For one, Lena shares Hades' dark aesthetic. For another, in the same way Hades rules a kingdom separate from Olympus, so does Lena (L-Corp). She's also got quite a few ghosts of the past following her around and she is a bit of a loner. She's not 100% in the friend group (as the end of S4 reminds us of so painfully well). She's an outsider and outcast. And like Hades, she toes the line between good and evil and is often misunderstood and misconstrued as a villain even though both she and Hades are actually quite chill. (Seriously, Hades is not the villain modern media says he is. Nor is Lena). And some people also say Hades is a God of Wealth because living underground means he's surrounded by all sorts of precious metals and gems and Lena's got a bank big enough to buy CatCo for Kara, so… (Lena!Hades would soooo have a whippet Cerberus).

Hera is Cat. Cat's the Queen of Everything. So is Hera. And honestly, I've always imagined Cat's personality to be Hera's: bossy, haughty, rude, prideful, picky, controlling, dramatic and demanding, but also wise, kind, maternal (literally and figuratively) and empowering. Her use of tough love to mentor Kara is the way I imagine Hera running Olympus. She's a perfect balance of intimidation and confidence and there's a heart of gold under all that sass and snobbery.

Hestia is Eliza. For one, she's Team Mom. For another, even though she's a minor character, she offers up a lot of support to both Alex and Kara across some of their most important journeys. And for yet another, people seem to underestimate both Eliza and Hestia just because of their roles as minor characters. And on a meta level, Hestia is still a goddess and Eliza's actress did used to be a Supergirl. So don't underestimate these two!

Demeter is Sam. Sam's another Team Mom and if you know the story of Persephone (or Ruby), you know how far Sam/Demeter will go to make sure her daughter is ok. Demeter was almost a Worldkiller after the whole Persephone-Hades thing (don't make it weird). So in this case, Sam isn't just another Team Mom, she's the darker and fiercer side of Team Mom. Demeter definitely shows just how intense a mother's love can be, after all. And Reign, at least in the earlier days, did seem to target people who went after Sam or the people she loved, so in those moments, Reign was more of an overprotective friend/mom than a total villain too.

(And to some extent, Sam always gave me some Persephone vibes too. Persephone is the Goddess of Springtime and the Queen of the Dead both. That's fitting for someone like Sam, who has to deal with Reign. They both have seemingly oppositional domains. And hey, that makes the Persephone-Hades thing a little less weird, if you make Sam Persephone.)

Dionysus is Mon-El. He's a playboy and partier. Of course Mon-El is the God of Wine, Drunken Revelry and Fertility. And regardless of your opinion about Mon-El and his character/personality, he does have some funny moments and that's definitely befitting of a God of Partiers. And not only that, but Dionysus is also sometimes classified as a God of Resurrection. Mon-El got a moment like that in S3, returning to Kara after he left Earth (and the 21st century) at the end of S2. He's also a very free spirit, just like Dionysus.

Athena is Brainy. It's easy to mix him up with Winn, but the reason I made Brainy Athena is just like that fine distinction between J'onn and Superman. The way I see it, even though Brainy and Winn are both geniuses, Brainy seems a bit more on the battle side of everything. It's like his specialty is war and strategy. And that's Athena's specialty. Even though she symbolizes intelligence in its raw form, she seems to have a specialization in intelligence as it pertains to battle and strategy, just like Brainy. (Remember, he came from the Legion and joined the Superfriends pretty much immediately and a lot of his scenes involve him either planning or offering up probabilities of success at any given moment).

Ares is James. James has always seemed like a fighter to me, for better or worse, constantly allying himself with the Supers and wishing to be just like them. And of course, he's also the Guardian. And like I said in-story, to me, Ares isn't just the God of War because he shapes war, but because war shapes him. James has the same thing. He dealt with racism as a child and he openly admits that those traumas were part of what shaped him into the man we know and love today (for better or worse). James was born into a world of war and became a fighter as a result, just like Ares.

Apollo is Kara. She's sunlight. She flies through the sky (maybe not on a golden chariot, but still). And in a meta way, she's got a connection to music. Additionally, in the same way the sun can burn and blind when it does warm or illuminate, Kara's sweet disposition can quickly become a flaring and terrifying temper. She's scary when she's angry, and she's a vicious fighter. She's not all sunshine and rainbows. And her dichotomy of being a hero with the powers of mass destruction on her side (Red K Kara didn't just come out of nowhere after all), Apollo himself is credited as being the God of Medicine and Plague both, another seemingly oppositional set.

Artemis is Alex. She's Apollo's sister. She's also a huntress and "archer" (Alex loves her gun) and a lesbian (c'mon, we've all heard the "Artemis (and her Huntresses) is/are lesbian" thing before). Additionally, Artemis has a connection to childbirth and young women. Alex wants children and Ruby seemed to venerate her during their time together in S3. Additionally, Artemis is the Goddess of the Moon. Another celestial body in the sky, alongside the sun. To me, Alex's embodiment of the moon isn't there to show how different she is from Kara (the sun), but how well they work together. The moon reflects the sun's light and sometimes, you can see the moon in the sky even though the sun's out. To me, that shows how well the sun and moon work together, and how they really aren't as opposite as we seem to think that they are. (Gotta love that sisterly love).

Aphrodite is Kelly. She's described as being a therapist who's really good at reading humans and their emotions and behaviors. She also becomes Alex's GF by the end of S4 and her arch with James and their father's funeral, to me, spoke of a different kind of love. It wasn't just about romantic or sexual love, but familial love. And her helping him (and the other Superfriends) through their various troubles, to me, embodied love. Not just romantic or sexual, but platonic and familial too.

Hephaestus is Winn. Although Winn is crazy smart, I'd still place Brainy above him (Brainy's a level 12 intellect after all) and Winn has always seemed to err more on the side of technology, engineering and design than anything else. He, like Brainy, can be seen as a God of Smarts, but his specialty doesn't lie in the battlefield, it lies in a computer. He builds and designs things and he seems to work best with machinery and tech. That's not to say he's not useful or intelligent in combat, that's just to say I've always seen him more as the God of Machinery than of Battle Strategy.

Hermes is Nia. She, like Hermes, has a hand in many worlds. Hermes is a traveler and messenger and Nia has proven herself capable of communicating through dreams. But beyond that, I think Nia, of all people, would understand the concept of being part of many worlds. As a transgender woman and a human-alien hybrid who specializes in the sleeping world, she really knows all about limbo and being in between and everywhere all at once. She also used to be a political speechwriter. She had to be very eloquent, and good at delivering messages, in order to handle a job like that!

So what do you all think? Did all that make sense to you? What other ideas did you have? Is there anyone whom you think would've done better in a different role? Because I already know the possibilities could be so much more if I'd used different Gods or different Supergirl characters. I'll even list a few alternate versions below to get everyone else's creative juices flowing, if any of you should care to share your own ideas about this weird little crossover.

Lex: Athena, Ares or Zeus. He's definitely a War God and he's crazy smart. And if you cast him as one, you can cast Lena as the other to show the dichotomy between the two siblings and the two ways to go to war: brain or brawn? I know the Luthors both specialize in brains, but you could write that either one or the other seems to be a bit more physical than the other. And as for Zeus? The real Zeus was not a nice guy. Nor is Lex. And Lex certainly as the egomania of the King of the Gods. (Poseidon would work as well if you wanted to cast J'onn or one of the Supers as Zeus to highlight how Lex can be quite a match for them).

Lena: Athena, Hephaestus. Those should go without saying. She's wicked smart with EVERYTHING. She's great at battle strategy, she's a fierce fighter, she's great with machines, she builds and designs technology for a living. She could fit either role. (She could also fit Poseidon if you view him as a moody loner and cast Lex as Zeus, to once again highlight their sibling rivalry and the power imbalance between the two of them).

Lillian: Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, Hermes: Zeus or Poseidon would represent what a powerful force she is/was and how high she used to rank in Cadmus. Hera and Demeter fit because Lillian is basically Cat and Sam with way less redeeming qualities (she does genuinely love Lena as S4 claims and she nearly kills Morgan Edge multiple times after she realizes he's after Lena, but she was very ruthless to Lena when Lena was young). Hermes is the God of Tricksters and Thieves and Travelers and Lillian's definitely got the dishonesty and slippery nature to fit that role too.

Eve: Athena, Hermes. No matter what you think about Eve, she's smart. Smart enough to work in a lab with Lena. And she's cunning. As Lex's little messenger and spy who comes and goes to keep him connected to National City, her roles as Hermes should be pretty clear.

Superman/girl: Zeus or Poseidon: No matter which Super gets which role, it should be obvious why they would receive the two strongest Gods of Olympus. (And if you cast Supergirl as Zeus, Alex could be Poseidon to highlight their sibling rivalry and power imbalance. Or perceived power imbalance, since Alex used to be jealous of Kara's powers and I have no doubt Poseidon's been jealous of Zeus before).

So now it's all up to you guys. Agree or disagree? Any other possibilities I didn't mention? (Heck, I haven't touched any of the minor gods yet and already, the Nia-Hypnos or Morpheus thing works perfectly! And Iris is the Goddess of Rainbows…) But if you're sick of all this speculation, feel free just to peace out instead. Once again, thanks for "playing" and I hope you enjoyed (in the sense that I hope it wasn't too hard or too easy). And congrats again to Jsottri, Blackpaw29 and Ri2!
