#Song of Achilles

[caffeinatedcolor-blog]

Fanart of the most gut wrenching scene in Song of Achilles. I adore this book.

Oh characters doomed from the start we’re really in it now

Left is MY FIC, right is the ACTUAL BOOK QUOTE IT WAS INSPIRED BY

(Mask context: masquerade ball / cinderella au)

It has been doing numbers EVERYWHERE and I only found out from this lovely person who commented on Ao3:

So yeah I guess if anyone wants to read an 8 year old Song of Achilles fanfic written in a fever dream after watching Into The Woods, be my guest

Hector of troy- because most art I see of him is in armour or scary and that needed fixed

I will recognize you in total darkness, were you mute and deaf. I will recognize you in another lifetime entirely, in different bodies, different times and I will love you in all of this, until the very last star in the sky burnt out into oblivion.

Diomedes: Odysseus and I are having a baby.

Achilles: That’s grea-

Odysseus: *slams adoption papers on the table* it’s you, sign here!

aaaaaaaaaaaa the iliad/odyssey as cat memes aaaaaaaaaaaaa

[remusfinglupin]

Real classical literature bitches know that Achilles was in fact just a whiny twink who wanted to live on a farm with his bf and Patroclus was in fact terrifying and incredibly brave. Sick seeing the mischaracterization of these two.

So I’m a huge Achilles and Patroclus shipper

And I love them

And recently, I found a musical about these two

It’s called: Aristos: The Musical

It is really good. I’m in tears when I’m listening to it.

It surprised me that how little people knows about this brilliant musical.

It is completed, and have 18 songs.

I highly recommend this to anyone who loves Achilles and Patroclus or just simply interested in greek myth.

Whether you’re a fan of the iliad or the song of Achilles, I’m sure you’ll love this musical.

imagine chiron sitting in his cave, and peering outside for just a moment. he sees a boy with messy dark waves and another with golden hair, chatting under a fig tree. for a moment he thinks it’s achilles and patroclus.

no.

it’s will and nico.

achilles and patroclus are dead, chiron… dead.
