achilles and jon parallels (on the assumption of annabelle as odysseus, obvs) (and tbh mostly focused on Jon In The Apocalypse):

literal fucking godlike power/invulnerability (with perhaps? one fatal weakness?)

marked...... when young........... by the gods.............

achilles trying to avoid the trojan war and being tricked (by odysseus) into revealing himself: jon pretending he doesn't believe in the supernatural until jane prentiss's attack (hastened by a spider) forces him to admit it

the greeks were prophesized to lose troy if they didn't have achilles, the web's plan (and also jonah's plan) Requires Jon

the fucking smiting, achilles could NOT let a wrong go unavenged

odysseus and achilles are on the same side but also were opposites and fought a lot, but also odysseus gave achilles actual good advice and sometimes made him stop with the fighting to do a smarter plan (in which i continue to hold out hope abt annabelle........ but also she did give good advice. also told him he was responsible for eating trauma so.)

#not as many parallels as annabelle and odysseus #but also i have never liked achilles as much as odysseus and am not as familiar #both achilles and odysseus being unwilling to fight in the war but being pulled in anyway #and fighting and suffering under agamemnon's command and for his goals #(yes he declared war for menelaus but like..... he declared war)#only for agamemnon to win the war and then GET FUCKED AND DIE for being a dick #something something JONAH PARALLELS #...........anyway does this leave martin as patroclus! maybe!!#are we worried! yes!!#but listen annabelle did not make all the same mistakes as odysseus #and jon eventually stopped being vengeful #perHAPS martin as patroclus can also have little a changes
