#Iliad

[wolfythewitch]

I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before

I put to my lips the hands of the man who killed my son.

Doomed ancient yaoi

Last post for today I promise xD just wanted to catch up with the designs I posted on my ig

[emandemms]

achilles and diomedes are the same person except one of them suffers from main character syndrome and the other gets to be the badass side character.

[sylvyspritii]

Ah yes the three classics

People are missing so much potential not to imagine how incredibly subtle comedy would be if everyone in the Greek side of the Trojan War spoke in their individual idioms and accents from different parts of Greece and making fun of each other for that on occasion! Like one can almost envision how different dialects and accents in England for instance cannot understand each other hahaha

Do you think we Greeks who speak standard Greek can understand every single dialect around? Like people in Crete or worse in Cyprus? We even have a comedy movie of 1970s called "Babylonia" (Βαβυλωνία) which makes fun of all these individual idioms in Greece of 19th century and how people cannot understand each other.

Imagine the leaders and kings and nobles speaking some standardized "official" form and then imagine the rest of the army being a Babylon not of different languages like Troy but of different accents and local idioms and dialects!

Come on! Don't be cowards! Hahahaha See the potential!

while it would be nice to see patrochilles presented as romantically queer i have a bad feeling that it will be only portrayed as such as their bond as best friends, family, and comrade will be overshadowed

[sunshines-child]

when i see a pinterest comment going "achilles and patroclus were the only decent guy in the iliad, argue with the wall" and then IMMEDIATELY follow it up with "i have never read the iliad, only TSOA" 😒.

odyssey adaptation where a mini odysseus appears, pauses and explains how he'll get out of his latest misadventure

my achilles design 🐟

I also did this. Apollo’s forgot about the loophole.

My girl Cassandra deserved a better fate. Let her be one of the Ithacan sisters.

the whole trojan war could have been avoided if paris just. ate the apple in one comically large bite. athena, hera, and aphrodite would have been stunned into silence.

Odysseus @ Achilles

EDIT:

Ok, I’m seeing a lot of misunderstandings and people thinking this is my art. THIS IS NOT MY ART. I did mention this in the comments, but hindsight is 20/20. I wasn’t expecting this post to blow up so much, so I hadn’t put too much thought as to what it was going to put into the post. Anyways, here is the link to the art that this photo is from
