#anyway listen to epic the musical it’s good

[fridayyy-13th]

ty for the tag :D

last song: "Mutiny" from Epic: the Musical (yes, i'm finally listening to Epic, y'all. only took five different friends recommending it over several months to finally drag me in lmao. it's very good <3)

favorite color: green 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

last book: Somewhere Beyond the Sea by TJ Klune, which i have not had much time to read lately, but it's vv good so far

last movie: okay there's technically two answers here. last night i was rewatching a film i'd watched for a class so i could do an assignment, The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (the original 1920 one, not the 2005 remake), but that was less sitting down and watching and more refreshing my memory of it by letting it play in the background as i wrote my assignment on it. the last film i watched was another one for this same class, It Happened One Night. which was very fun. i'm not much of a romcom guy but it was cute. (and a secret third answer, if you want the last film i watched on my own time: La La Land. i'd never seen it before! incredible film. ouch.)

sweet/spicy/savory: savory all the way

relationship status: Maximum Gay Aroace Pining Baybee 👍 that mayyyyy actually be reciprocated?? shit's wild. and very exciting. and also a bit scary. but mostly exciting.

last thing i googled: looked up the livestream for a local church's service, bc i've been considering attending and wanted to feel out what it's like before going in person.

current obsession: a Solid Tie between both The Magnus Archives and Dan & Phil, surprising absolutely no one.

looking forward to: possibly getting dinner with a friend tonight; we wanted to go out as a group with some other friends, but said other friends have not responded in the group chat, so i'm gonna ask if this friend still wants to hang out anyway

tags (no pressure!!): @loverlighted @ellamenop @roatmeal @starrynightalex @cornmazehater @red-velvet-0w0 @seaside-hysteria

Thank you @thesem for the tag! <3

Last Song: That's a really hard one to answer at Christmas. Honestly I've had the theme song from Santa Claus Conquers the Martians stuck in my head for three days now.

Favorite Color: Changes frequently, but I like purple and deep greens!

Last Book: Joy in the Morning by PG Wodehouse

Last Movie: The Alistair Sim 'Scrooge' - which is my absolute favourtie Christmas Carol adaptation

Last TV Show: All Creatures Great and Small (the new one)

Sweet/spicy/savory: Sweet, alas.

Relationship Status: giant snowman pattern minecraft

Last Thing I Googled: giant snowman pattern minecraft

Current Obsession: I've kind of got two at the moment that I guess are linked? I've been trying to read/watch my way through the complete works of Shakespeare, and I've been researching the backstage side of how theatres work and theatre history, ostensibly for a future project.

Looking Forward To: My game The Beekeeper's Picnic is coming out in a few months! I have so much work left to do on it, but I'm also excited about entering the final stretch!

I will tag @fruitviking, @jeremys-come-to-bed-eyes @sandygarnelle @geeoharee and anyone else who would like to do it <3

Hope this reaches the right audience but to the people in the very small overlap in the Venn diagram of “people who are invested in the story of fe heroes” and “people who have listened to epic: the musical”, how horrible of an idea do you think it’d be to make Lif listen to the underworld saga?

[scyllas-dogs]

well anniflamma may have too much dignity to draw poseidon getting backshots but I sure dont. here we go

EDIT: my pizza hands got slapped so now its up on blusky thank u

[eeveekitti]

I will fall in love with you over and over again, I don’t care how, where, or when, no matter how long it’s been, you’re mine

[koruga]

it's so wild that the ithaca saga is just one song, bold artistic choice to just have the challenge five times for your final album.

[o3o-lapd-o3o]

i promise, i am working on part 2 of this! =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)

...i've just keep getting distracted either playing hades, or reading "the iliad" (*cough* its-actually-odydio-fics-on-ao3 *cough*) or just straight up listening/singing to the epic musical sagas while scrolling through tumblr...

i have the attention span of a gnat ok? and i'm very easily distracted...

"Greet the world with open arms" here and "greet it with open arms" there, yeah, yeah, I see, Polites. But what I really want to see is you keep that nice arms of yours widen open when Odysseus go for the ribs.

Thinking about Odysseus tickling Polite's while singing his "open Arms" song but now it's about tickles and teases. Something like

The tickling is amazing when you greet it with open arms. Smiles on our face. We'll be fine if we're laughing from our hearts. No matter the place they can light up the world. here's how to start.

Greet them all with open arms. greet them all with open arms ~

And then he just makes sillier and sillier lyrics while Polites is giggling and squirming, too occupied laughing to complain about his poke of fun

Odysseus getting closer, fingers wiggling, a dangerous, amused smirk in his face as Polites is scurrying away and sing songing "Try to relax my friend. I can tell you're getting nervous ~"

[churmandurr]

no im NOT crying about some dumb guy in a musical that doesn't even exist!!!! they were literally best friends and he got his best friend in his war and then inadvertently got him killed by being a dumbass and now the best friend haunts the whole fucking narrative!!!!!

Uh. Medias I like. Kind of somewhat. We’re going with loose definitions here but basically here are some medias and you’re allowed to go bother me with questions about them. Idk.

Shows:

Sighs deeply

- Monkey Wrench

- Murder Drones

- The Amazing Digital Circus

- waiting for The Gaslight District and Knights of Guinevere

- The Owl House

- Good Omens

- Our Flag Means Death

Movies:

- Nimona (the movie version)

- The Wild Robot

- SECRET OF KELLS

- pretty much anything made by Studio Ghibli, but some favourites are Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, Castle in the Sky, and Nausicaa of the Winds

Not much else because I actually don’t like movies that much. There are movies I enjoyed but none of them spark any sort of brainrot or inspiration.

Books:

- Skulduggery Pleasant (of course)

- Iron Widow trilogy

- Sunbearer Trials trilogy

- Hell Followed With Us

- Nimona (the book version)

- Monstress

- used to be into Wings of Fire, read up to book fourteen I think? Lost track

- probably more, I am an avid book enjoyer

Games:

- Sky: Children of the Light

- Dungeons and Dragons

- Ultrakill

- Cult of the Lamb (have never played, would like to at some point)

- Mouthwashing

- hey have I mentioned Dungeons and Dra-

If any grade before grade 12 got you thinking trigonometry is easy, it's all a lie

Relistening to Epic the Musical again, and particularly with the Ithaca Saga, it is just perfect

I talked this over with @artemis-the-changeling during New Year's since accuracy to the myth was a point in discussions before with a major about ancient greek (is that the term in English?) because they brought up how technically only half the story was done with Odysseus arriving in Ithaca based on the original myth

But I think arguing accuracy over Epic is losing the point already

Even before lyrically established

It's not a musical achieving to adapt all the Odyssey as it was written

It's a musical about Odysseus's journey to Ithaca translated to a core theme
