Okay but have we thought about how scary odysseus interacting with the gods /his knowledge about such things it must have been for his crew?

Its well known that odysseus is Athenas favorite, even before the Trojan war. But what does that look like from the outside? Are their conversations in some other plain? Does odysseus sometimes just glaze over and you just have to trust its a god speaking to him and not aome other fit? Out in the open? During the war odysseus was frequently doing really bizarre things on Athena's say so. Bit you also know your captain is a freak and lier so which is it this time? The gods will or odysseus just tucking with you? There's a little wariness there. But it's well known. And been like this forever.

But then you start encountering more monsters. More gods. They all talk to your captain. Your captain stops sleeping. Your go between for you and the captain starts committing crimes against the captain, starts bad mouthing him. More of your friends have died then in ten years of war. And every other day there's a new god talking to your captain. What mortal man has the interest of this many gods? What mortal man can get up in the gods faces to yell at them. What mortal man has the powers to overcome the witches they encounter the power to over turn gods spells? What mortal man's tongue is so gilded he convinces these powers to help them? And doubt comes creeping in.

#the odyssey #epic the musical #odysseus #Odysseus's crew #outsider pov my beloved #But no seriously what does odysseus's life and causal interactions with the gods look like from the average man #Is your captain being weird because of the gods or because he's fucking with you and is about to laugh in your face #It's 50/50 either way and how do you tell #I have many thoughts and feelings about odysseus's unnamed crew #Typing this out I just realized that odysseus's crew don't know how he got circle on their side #All they know is he waltzed into her palace was not affected by her magic and then convinced her to turn everybody back and help them #The conspiracies that must exist around this man #Also odysseus got Athens blessing as a child how did he change after that?#How did eury and pilties feel about their interactions being spied on by a goddess?

and when i write a fic where ponyboy and johnny don’t go to dally after killing bob

johnnys tryna pull pony’s unresponsive self away from bob but ponyboy is wet and cold and scared and probably .3 seconds away from crying and all he knows is darry

darry can make this all go away

darry might be mad again when he sees pony wet at 230am but once he explains maybe he won’t be as mad. if pony’s lucky (he usually isn’t) maybe darry won’t be too angry at him for running out the house

darry will know what to do with the blade. he’ll know if they ought to bury it somewhere or just clean it real good. and if he can’t, well darry had always been real smart he’ll know how to get them out of town

i just

idk man there’s something about a soaking wet ponyboy on the verge of tears (because jesus mary christmas somebody just tried to kill him how is he alive)

and he’s never actually seen a dead body before at least not one that he knows darry made sure him and soda never saw they’re parents mangled bodies, but bob is right there. blood leaking out of him staining the grass red like in that wonderland book he read a while ago.

bob is right there and if pony doesn’t focus, if he quits using his head, he can almost pretend bob is just sleeping, albeit in a weird position

and (for a split second) pony almost wishes it was him instead of bob. he almost wishes bob did succeed in killing him. because pony was unconscious and he was so close to seeing his mama and daddy again. he was so close and he accepted it, drowning wasn’t exactly how he wanted to go out but if he got to see his mama again then oh well. his eyes was closed one moment and the next he’s coughing up water and seeing johnny with a bloody knife

and ponyboy is soaking wet, somebody tried to kill him, he feels like he’s gonna throw up or pass out again, and all he knows is he wants to run to his big brother. he wants him to hold him and tell pony that it’s gonna be okay and that darry will take care of everything

#:/ yeah #i’m writing this for sure #idk how no one else has written it yet :(#the outsiders #outsiders musical #darry curtis #ponyboy curtis #sodapop curtis #he’d be there too of course #but i feel like this would be the moment when darry becomes pony’s hero again #this is when darry becomes his big brother again because #pony would never go to parents for this even if they were alive #bc yk he’s still 14 and prideful af #but darry ?? his hero?? his superman ??#oh there’s nothing he can’t do #the outsiders fanfiction #the outsiders headcanons

“Haven’t You Noticed (I’m a Star)” from Steven Universe works so ridiculously well for Leo

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt headcanons #rottmnt leo #rise leo #listen it’s morning now and I haven’t slept so bear with me for the sudden unwarranted lyric analysis haha #a lotttt of the lyrics work so well for him #not even just the overall theme the words just work great #first lyric is literally ‘I can’t help it if I make a scene’ which is one to one with ‘Leo’s makin a scene’ from the rottmnt opening like-#‘I’m turning heads and I’m stopping traffic’ -> Leo has not made it a secret that he values his looks a LOT #-not just his looks but also his ability to get people’s attention #‘when I pose they scream when I joke they laugh’ -> I feel like this speaks for itself #-posing and joking for the crowd and himself #‘I’ve got them dazzled like a stage magician’ -> works both with Leo’s canonical love of magicians and his aptitude with tricks in general #‘well everybody needs a friend and I’ve got you and you and you’ -> I just think it’d be cute to imagine his friends here just as his bros #‘I got you and you and you’ = ‘my brainy guy my smashing guy and eats peanut butter with his fingers guy’#‘haven’t you noticed that I’m a star?’ -> Leo loves attention and especially loves when his feats and efforts are acknowledged #+ he loves glam rock and sci-fi and being a champ and - listen he has a LOT of star symbolism with him #‘haven’t you noticed I made it this far’ - Leo is well aware of how dangerous situations get and thinks himself only a part of a whole #-so hey it’s notable that he’s survived this long yeah?#‘now everyone can see me burning’ -> self-sacrificing with his family bearing witness + all his star and flame symbolism in general #+ how attention naturally goes to him - including bad attention where his mistakes are highlighted and burn bright #also even the limo lyric-#obviously this boy has never and will never own a limo but one of his main secondary colors IS pink so even that #okay that one is just a joke but he would #(on that note though I think the other colors the boys gravitate to outside THEIR color are fun to notice)#I don’t actually know too much about Steven universe beyond the songs and some eps but I like the music #and this just came to my tired mind so here you go anyone who’s interested #may draw something with these lyrics dunno yet #it’s a good song in any case even though it’s super short

i love you tiny costume details. i love tiny pieces of jewelry or patches that add so much to a character. i love you costume designers that allow for personalization. i love you i love you i love you

#yes this is about the outsiders #soda's cowboy boots for his horse mickey mouse #its not even mentioned in the show but the fact that its part of his costume specifically for that horse makes me so happy #ponyboy's little pegasus/horse necklace #and the track shirt that is so worn out and faded but you still Know its from track #nother character detail that isnt mentioned verbally but still very much a part of him #and dont get me started on the embroidery on Johnny's vest #i like to imagine either he did it himself #maybe while sitting alone in the lot or outside his house #with nothing else to do but sit and listen to his parents fight #or maybe its a hand-me-down that he found around his house #something that makes him feel a little closer to whatever family he has out there #because nonmatter how awful his parents are family is clearly very important to him #i could talk about him for HOURS #i need emma to have another costume details segment on her vlogs because i love it sososoososos much #the outsiders musical #the outsiders #johnny cade #ponyboy curtis #ponyboy #sodapop curtis

Soda is ADHD, Pony is autistic, and Darry… my guy has all the things. Anxiety? Yes. Depression? If you’re telling me he’s not depressed you need to go read/watch again. Autism indeed. ADHD you got. Auditory processing disorder (this one’s a me thing). And on top of it all he is just the Most Stressed Guy.

#None of them are neurotypical #Don’t come after me yall #Idk why you would but I have a feeling you might because I have anxiety (like Darry!!)#The outsiders #the outsiders musical #this is specific for the musical characters but applies to all version. To me.#Darry curtis #soda curtis #ponyboy curtis #idk what else to tag #curtis brothers #brent comer #jason schmidt #brody grant

Thinking about how if we accept Paul’s narrative of the night as truth (barring the holding hands of course) Bob fully thought Cherry was putting the moves on a 14-year-old

Are you sure he wasn’t a jealous man buddy 🤨

#I think there’s a few interpretations you could have of how much of what he says in JFT is true #especially since he’s established to be an unreliable narrator by the hand-holding lie #but like it occurred to me tonight. what if he wasn’t lying about Bob not being a jealous man? that means there was a different motive than #just her being with Ponyboy and him thinking some greaser’s trying to get with his girlfriend #what if it was like. okay now I’m venturing into the realm of headcanons. but his parents having an unhappy marriage and cheating a lot #to get back at each other when they fought #and when he was young he got the idea that if he could just go after all the people they cheat with they would be happy together #and now he’s older and has realized there’s no merit to that but it’s still ingrained in his mentality when he sees cherry #so when he sees cherry with Ponyboy he assumes it’s to get back at him and he ‘goes crazy’#this does still have him thinking Cherry’s trying to put the moves on a child so idk how I feel about this exactly but it could be refined #anyway I think it would be fun to explore variations of what he could’ve meant #og #the outsiders #the outsiders musical #paul holden #cherry valance #bob sheldon

Something something Sunday, something something headcanon post

- Ponyboy loves mint chocolate chip ice cream, but dally hates it. He claims it tastes like toothpaste and every time he says this, the group has to hold pony back from attacking the guy (fair)

- (modern) Someone show the curtis brothers Steven universe sobs

- The curtis brothers have dimples and smile lines and other facial things. like Darry has crows feet and pony has worry lines on his forehead because I think it’s cool and I have those even though I am like. Young.

- What if Dallas had an older brother or someone that’s like how he is to Johnny but to Dallas and that person died and then his mom died and he hated his dad and had no reason to stay in New York so he left

- I just painted my nails with random ass old nail polish I found and every nail is a different color and I think that’s something cherry would do

- Pony, soda, and twobit are all double jointed in different areas of their body and they’ll just do shit to creep the rest of the guys out, especially dally and darry

- Dally is fine with gore n shit irl but cant handle weird body contorsions

- Johnny will randomly say the most horrifying things like “doesn’t everyone wish they could go to sleep and not wake up” and it just traumatizes ponyboy. Twobit is also like this but a bit more goofy. Pony ends up doing the same thing post-book but says it to sound like it’s a joke like two bit and when people tell him to stop he’s like “it’s true tho🧍🏽‍♂️”

- Since dally is so pale, he gets “red” so goddamn easily but he looks more pink. Every time he feels too much of any emotion, he’s pink. If it’s too hot he’s pink. Two bit makes fun of him for this and has been punched in the face at least twice for it. Pony is the same but that mf turns like BRIGHT red

- One sided dalbit bc Dallas is fucking aromantic but it’s funny for giggles and shits cuz twobitch just keeps embarrassing himself trying to flirt (vox and alastor core) (someone make a fic about this cries sobs)

- (Modern perchance) Pony is in like advanced classes n shit but fucking hates it. He’s still good at it and will cry if he gets a bad grade, but he doesn’t like it

- (Modern) Pony fucking hates Miguel O’Hara and is absolutely positively disgusted bc like half his friends simp so hard over that man (may or may not be based on me) (it is)

- two bit unironically believes so many conspiracy theories and spreads it to pony and Johnny

- I randomly made mozzarella sticks rn on a whim and soda would 100% impulse make food all the time and just figure out the recipe himself. It’s usually decent.

- Pony loves back to school season but hates actually going back. Like he likes the idea of going back to school and getting new school supplies, but within like, two days, he hates all his classes besides English

- Soda will burst out singing out a lot no matter where he is. Even at night. You can’t stop him (me)

- Rip sodapop you would’ve LOVED musical theater sobs
