I've gots to yap about Eurylochus because i love him soooo much
Anyways I'm gonna go into the reasons why Eury doesn't deserve the hate he gets (this is for funsies)
1. His song Luck runs out — I've seen people get mad(?) or at least a bit antsy about his song and why he was "defying" Odysseus. The reason why I don't think he's "defying" Ody is because he put his trust in Polites and Ody when they found the cave after meeting the winion's island ("I've gotta hand it to you both" THAT'S ACKNOWLEDGMENT/PRAISE ON THEM FINDING AN ALTERNATIVE ON FOOD RATGER THAN JUST RAIDING THE WINION'S ISLAND) and when some of them got killed by Polyphemus, he was a bit more hesitant on just showing up to random places that belong to powerful deities(?)
2. When Eury opened the wind bad. Now in Eury's song Ody said "You've heard the legends of the island in the sky" MEANING that Aeolus' island was a LEGAND a MYTH (which is why Eury was quick to be hesitant about it being the actual island) and this means that a wind bag must've also been a legend. Not to mention that it was Perimedes and Elpenor who were the ones who was told about the wind bag first and let the other crewmen about the bag. Eury was just in belief just as everyone else that there WAS treasure in that bag and he did try to tell Ody as soon as Poseidon was done trying to kill them
3. Eury wanting to leave the crew behind. NOW THIS ONE MIGHT LWK BE REACHING LMAO but anyways I believe that Eury wanted to leave the crew for 2 reasons, one being that so many people already died based on how they keep having to run into Gods/Goddesses (Poseidon/Circe/Aeolus) and since they've gone through so much already, it'd be better to just leave them when they'll die there instead of a process of going home. The second reason is that I think Eury didn't want to see them die as HUMANS. He said in his song "I just don't want to see another life end" WHICH COULD MEAN SEE THEM DIE AS HUMANS. It's normal to kill animals for the Gods/Goddeses and maybe Eury could pretend that they were just animals and he wouldn't be too hurt by their death (still wrong but somewhat justified??)
4. The Mutiny song. Eury told off Ody for killing the 6 other guys because ODY PROVED HIM WRONG WITH HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN LIVE. Ody had been fighting about keeping everyone alive to get home (in Puppeteer) AND THEN KILLED 6 GUYS. ODY WAS IN THE MINDSET OF "It's just one life to take, — then our journey's over" like in Survive, Ody was willing to do ANYTHING to get home. Perimedes was right to say "how can we trust you now" since Ody was willing to kill THEM to get home. And the reason Eury called Ody "captain" before Zeus came up is because Ody is a natural leader under pressure, Eury wanted guidance/reassurance that they'd be okay (and he killed those cows because he didn't trust Ody, as well as because he didn't even think he was going to get home, let alone have a food source in a while.
Holy yappathon frfr. I just love Eurylochus and i explode everytime someone hates him 💔💔
