YES THEY ARE BUDDIES and making fun of people.

Everything is right with the world

I have a feeling that Kassandra is going to go into a symposium soon to figure out where Mommy Dearest is. And it'll probably be the symposium that Plato wrote about

So if Aristophanes isn't there being best buds (or more) with Euripides, I will be upsettispaggetti!!

[itskenwaybitch]

silly alcibiades facts i have learned while researching for my paper

he apparently bit somebody as a child. can't say i'm surprised, mans was feral from the start. 😔

pericles was his adoptive father, and apparently they were actually blood related.

he had a lisp and aristophanes made fun of him for it.

his name is pronounced al-si-BYE-uh-deez (i can't write out pronunciations well forgive me) ac odyssey made me think otherwise xd

he won a chariot race in the olympics???

might have been the guy that chopped all the dicks off of all those hermes statues

Some quick concepts I sketched out the other night for possible sticker designs - pride stickers! As far as MAI go, near all of them are inherently asexual, so instead of drawing the ace flag over and over, I was considering making the flags heart shaped to imply that they’re just for romantic orientation. That might not be very clear without context, however, so I probably will be adding the ace flag as base for them. Aside from these three here, I also have plans to draw Aristophanes, Lazarus, Pallas, and a few others.

Mask of Tragedy

The Seventh Doctor takes Ace and Hector to 421 BC, Athens for some rest and relaxation. Ancient Greece is a temporal hotspot for vacationing time travels and the Doctor is hoping to sponsor a show by Aristophanes, but since when has the Doctor ever been able to take a break.

This adventure puts a bit of a more serious spin on an idea Big Finish has previously played for comedy. The idea that some points in history are just places where anyone with a time machine would go, so the locals have gotten used to it. The average person might think of time travelers as odd tourists, but the higher ups know that aliens and future men walk the streets. We even get to see some tension in the adventure’s villain Cleon, the leader of Athens, who wants to leverage aliens to win his wars and control the people. We also see it in Aristophanes, who is the father of all comedy, but in his time is something of a hack. The Doctor supports him because he knows the impact he’ll one day have. It makes for a fun setting, and one that is played up by things like Ace acting as a Greek chorus and trying to lead a feminist revolution. That said, the comedy does clash somewhat with the more serious issues later in the story creating a sort of tonal whiplash.

The source of much of the serious issues is once again Hector. Hector is simply not suited to time travel and his last two journeys have only proved it. Far future alien worlds and ancient Earth past have both left him drained and in danger. His susceptibility to possession again makes him a victim for large portions of the adventure, even as he thinks he’s finally taking control. It’s also painful to hear him compared to Hex for him, for Ace, and for the audience. Ace keeps bringing up Hex, which only makes Hector feel like he’s not living up to an ideal he’ll never know. Only the Doctor has accepted that Hex is gone and is trying to help Hector find a new path in life, but even he occasionally slips up and you can’t help feeling for him as he watches Ace suffer. 

Altogether this is a solid middle chapter in this trilogy. The tone goes up and down, sometimes line to line, but it was a fun listen and gave much needed growth to the character of Hector.

A Crash Course on Being Human

An Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Fan Fiction

Rating: Eh, you should be old enough if you want to read it. How old? I don’t know, but this is not kid stuff.

Characters: Deimos!Alexios, Kassandra, Hippokrates, Aristophanes, Sokrates, Alkibiades

Ships: Deimos!Alexios/Alkibiades, Alexios/Deimos [AKA Alexios/himself or Deimos/himself]

Length: 5 chapters (31135 words)

Standard mental health trigger warnings apply. More tags in AO3 link below.

Everything feels different when one is no longer a god. Alexios, formerly known as Deimos, needs to come to terms with the fact that those who worshipped him as one are all but eliminated, and he needs to learn how to be human. There are people who can help him, his sister Kassandra's friends from Athens who are the best minds in all of the Greek world. It won't be an easy task, however. In fact, this journey towards humanity seems to be quite an Odyssey, and Alexios isn't sure if he can keep afloat.
