i like how odysseus says penelopes been "waiting for love" but she never shifts from her stance on "waiting for you"

she was not waiting for love. if it was love she wanted she could have found it elsewhere, couldve found it again, couldve loved again

she was waiting for him

her husband. her odysseus.

she would have no one else. not because she couldnt but because she Won't

Ever.

imagine chiron sitting in his cave, and peering outside for just a moment. he sees a boy with messy dark waves and another with golden hair, chatting under a fig tree. for a moment he thinks it’s achilles and patroclus.

no.

it’s will and nico.

achilles and patroclus are dead, chiron… dead.

So I’m a huge Achilles and Patroclus shipper

And I love them

And recently, I found a musical about these two

It’s called: Aristos: The Musical

It is really good. I’m in tears when I’m listening to it.

It surprised me that how little people knows about this brilliant musical.

It is completed, and have 18 songs.

I highly recommend this to anyone who loves Achilles and Patroclus or just simply interested in greek myth.

Whether you’re a fan of the iliad or the song of Achilles, I’m sure you’ll love this musical.

Real classical literature bitches know that Achilles was in fact just a whiny twink who wanted to live on a farm with his bf and Patroclus was in fact terrifying and incredibly brave. Sick seeing the mischaracterization of these two.

Have you seen this Guardian article? I'd love your thoughts on the last two paragraphs!

Fascinating article, but HOLY SHIT?

I KNEW WE WERE GETTING A GAME, BUT THREE?? AN ANIMATED MOVIE AND A STAGE SHOW??

If we get all of these it would be beautiful- (I wonder which High Level Company?? I’m nervous???) Also I NEED the stage adaptation- I’m gonna cry?
