i love the tragedy and the angst of the house of atreus as much as the next person. but i also love to imagine agamemnon and menelaus being ........ kids. stupid kids. like. can you imagine them as teenagers and they see a fresco or some shit of the minotaur and menelaus just goes 'omg agamemnon you have our great-uncle's nose' and agamemnon just fucking bodies him.
