#and Zagreus finds the whole ‘’god of blood’’ conclusion totally baffling

[subbyp]

seriously Achilles’ codex entries are a trip and if you don’t read them you’re just missing out

the entry on Meg where he admits multiple times that he’s just too scared of her to ask her to spar or dig into her history with Zagreus

his opinion that the archers of Elysium must be experiencing some seriously diminishing returns by now in terms of skill gained with practice

his noting that Hades and Artemis have a very similar temperament and could probably reconcile if they tried, which is why they probably never will

”how many of my brethren did [Poseidon] drown during my mortal days? he comes across as affable, yet I’ve not forgiven him” damn son ok

his entry on Cerberus starts out roughly “yes, his three razor-lined maws have rent asunder countless fleeing souls and hubristic interlopers, but he’s babey”

the brief aside in the Varatha entry about Hades insisting that Posiedon’s trident is a cheap Varatha knockoff

he notes that for the record he has asked to help Dusa with her housekeeping duties and she may have literally tried to bite him for it

his recurring thoughts on gunpowder and explosives (gross and scary, probably also cursed)

the brief aside in the pom of power entry about “antioxidants, whatever those are, and whatever they are for”

his entry on trout which is basically “it’s a fucking trout”

when you first meet the Elysium npc, and his dialog box name tag is just “???”, but then the codex updates, so you look at the entry, and it’s just “PATROCLUS: Forgive me. It is not my place to speak of him now.”

the entry on Thanatos, which starts out describing his personality and divine portfolio, takes a hard left turn into him being in love with Zagreus, and concludes with, basically, “something something something therefore Zagreus is the god of blood”
