It was a simple mission. Damian was working with Father to confirm the existence of a Lazarus Pit below Gotham, as Ra's Al Ghul speculated. And they had found it, deep in the caves below Gotham. A Pit the size of an Olympic sized swimming pool, bubbling and steaming. He'd only looked away for a moment.

"Kin-slayer."

Standing waist deep in the water stood Damian's reflection. The hair might be white, and the eyes glowing with the waters, but it was his face. But not his face alone.

Danyal's ghost glared at him. "Get in the water."

Father threw a batarang at him, but the metal flew straight through his head like it was air. Danyal didn't even glance at him, his eyes fixed on Damian. "Get in the water," he ordered again. He stepped closer to the shore and the green water sloshed up the bank higher than it was before. "Or I'll raise the tide so high, all of Gotham will die. So get in the water."

Damian's heart jumped into throat. "Wait-"

"Get in the water."

Father shoved Damian behind him, as if it would protect him, as if he could stop Danyal. "Stop this, please-" If he could just explain-

Another step and the waters surged forward, nearly touching Father's boots. "I'll make whirlpools so profound, your entire family will drown," he promised.

"NO!" Not his brother, his kind brother-

"THEN GET IN THE WATER!" Danyal snarled, revealing monstrously sharp teeth and a black tongue from Damian's poison. "G̴̩͍͆͆̈́e̵̹̣͆t̷̬̋ ̸̻̮̎̒ĭ̸̟̰͙̏̃n̵͙̝̟̋͐ ̸̛̳̃t̶̪̣̅ḣ̸̳̇͜è̵̠̲͖̔̑ ̶̢̹̖͗͐̀w̵̜͍̤̌a̵̬̞͝ṫ̴̩̣̣e̶͉̲̯͂̏̎r̴̉͜!̷̡͔́̀̽" He lunged and Father pushed them back down the passage they'd come. "Don't mistake this for a bluff, brother. You've lived more than enough. Just get in the water." Damian swallowed, throat dry. Was this Danyal's revenge? Did he finally have to face what he had done?

"Robin, who is this?" Father snapped, trying to keep retreating down the cave. But Damian wouldn't let him; the waters, and Danyal with them, would only follow.

Danyal looked between them, scowling. "G̴̩͍͆͆̈́e̵̹̣͆t̷̬̋ ̸̻̮̎̒ĭ̸̟̰͙̏̃n̵͙̝̟̋͐ ̸̛̳̃t̶̪̣̅ḣ̸̳̇͜è̵̠̲͖̔̑ ̶̢̹̖͗͐̀w̵̜͍̤̌a̵̬̞͝ṫ̴̩̣̣e̶͉̲̯͂̏̎r̴̉͜!̷̡͔́̀̽" he snapped again. "I'll take your father and gouge out his eyes, unless you want to stop being a coward and choose to die. Now... get in the water."

SIREN: “Hi, I know you’re thousands of miles from home but it’s me, your wife, just hanging out in the middle of the ocean!”

ODYSSEUS: “Really? Penelope? My one true love, the mother of my child?”

SIREN: “…yep! Here I am right by your ship!”

ODYSSEUS: “WOW 😍😍😍 Penelope, how I’ve missed you!”

SIREN: “Holy shit that worked?!?”

ODYSSEUS: “What was that?”

SIREN: “I said, uh, come into the water!”

This one moment from the premiere but it's my designs.

Oughhhhhhhhhh Cream...

Cross being the only one able to see Dream as the broken and imperfect being that he is and decide to love him even more for it is OH MY GOD to me. But it was a really slow process. I think Cross had a little crush on Dream before they were friends, as an adverse effect of his aura but the experiences that push them closer to each other.

WAIT WAIT WAIT CHERIK MPREG IS CANON

i cannot stress enough how canon cherik mpreg is, yes my friend

[firefly-suite]

i'm just thinking about in 'get in the water' when odysseus says 'so why not leave this here and just go home' and poseidon says 'i can't'

and how, fOR THE LONGEST TIME, i thought it was in the sense that he couldn't go home, rather than he couldn't 'leave it there', right?

and so i just kept thinking that amphitrite was getting sick of poseidon complaining about odysseus that she kicked him out of their home or palace or whatever until poseidon dealt with it

and then,

both hermes and her are just sat there watching it all go down just thinking, this isn't what i meant

penelope meanwhile is just losing it at amphitrite because what do you MEAN you kicked him out, i would KILL to have my husband home-

[backpackingspace]

Okay but consider by the time the odysseus is baby girling himself during suffering, it's been very well established that he is the distraction/talk their way out of trouble friend. So eurylochus who has probably been putting up with this nonsense since they were children was going no no this is 100% normal just ignore it. While the crew (who was just random subjects yes?) Was going what the fuck what the fuck

[someoneoffthestreet]

a late observation about Epic: The Musical but is it intentional that Odysseus’ name isn’t said or sung aloud once for eight (8) songs straight, until he says it himself at the end of “Remember Them”?

Eurylochus and Polites exclusively call him “Captain” and “my friend”, Zeus and Athena address him in a kind of “hey you” sort of way, “Warrior of the Mind” has Athena ask Odysseus’ name and he dodges with “you first”. maybe it’s just a byproduct of his name being difficult to fit into songs, but idk, I think it’s kind of neat that Odysseus giving his name to Polyphemus doubles as him giving it to the audience, too.

Calypso is not a character that I LIKE but she is a character that I want to study like a bug

[fallloverfic]

I'm pretty sure that's not what's happening, but whenever I hear Polites echo Odysseus', "You and I'll go ahead" in Full Speed Ahead, I think of that moment someone says something as a joke and then people are like, "yeah let's do that," and the person who first said it is like, "Wait I didn't mean me!/I didn't think you'd take me seriously!" -internal panic- And they sort of look like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo.

Polites, excited: Look! There in the distance, I see an island I see a light that faintly glows Maybe they're people lighting a fire Maybe they'll share some food, who knows?

Odysseus: All right, let's you and I go.

Polites: You and--Wait I didn't mean me! And alone?!

Have you heard the Wisdom saga, which came out a couple of hours ago? I think you would love the song 'Love in Paradise'. Also, I am legitimately terrified of Calypso from this song; she's horrifying.

i didn't pay much attention to the musical lately, since the Circe saga was a bit "eh" for me. in terms of the musical's story, not the actual Odyssey ( a lot of things differ, as we know). but i did hear a few fragments of this song specifically before looking it up and giving it a listen. it's not that catchy as others for me, lines like "bow down now to the inmortal Calypso" don't fit the rythm the song has. though, to be fair, the song has a lot of dialogue compared to others, so it could be that.

they did a good job with making Calypso scary, because she is !! like any goddess. she's horrifying and that's her whole point, goddesses have the same scary power as gods, and i liked how that was shown ! specially the fear in Odysseus' voice.

a pity they didn't go the same way with Circe. they made her scary too, yeah, sure, but they tried to make her appealing to the public in a certain way. hilarious taking the fact that Odysseus himself describes her as "terrible" in the Odyssey
