I feel like Menelaus would be the kind of husband that buys his wife lingerie as a present. Yes, maybe it's beautiful and it's thoughtful enough to be her style, but it's as much a present to himself as it is for her, if not more.
Odysseus on the other hand would be the kind of husband that makes a present that is actually a part of a long inside joke with his wife. It would probably be received with an annoyed groan while he breaks his ribs laughing at the face Penelope makes. Ultimately a present for himself as well, but in a different way. Penelope retaliates doing the same thing. They've been giving and receiving shitty annoying gifs they hate for years. They both actually love it. Telemachus doesn't understand.
#I was writing the bibliography section of the paperwork I'm filling and this came to me and wouldn't leave my mind#so I'm putting it here to exorcise it out of my head#I also toyed with the idea of Hector and perhaps Agamemnon#I think Hector maybe is the kind of person that buys just the perfect thing but it's perhaps a bit too useful a gift#I feel Andromache would like it that way though#Maybe Agamemnon is one of those that buy something *they* want and it would make Clytemnestra fume inside#Although perhaps I'm just being a bit mean. Actually‚ maybe it's Paris the one who does that#I wasn't sure about the rest and I didn't give it too much thought‚ but Menelaus and Odysseus were crystal clear#I talk too much#I should probably delete this later#I hate that tumble got rid of the five tag thing#I want to organise things in my blog without bothering people following the tag with my silly things please#Odysseus#Menelaus#Odiseo#Menelao
