Athena met Telemachus

The face my teacher is going to see before the biochem exam of lab...

I'm ready for emotional sabotage. > :D

In Wisdom Saga, it's so funny that Athena describes her relationship ending with Oddysseus as "we grew apart" like they just stopped talking as opposed to the two of them singing an entire song dragging each other through the mud. "You've grown soft, your dead friends can attest" "I mistook you for a general" "After all, you're just a man" "Why's your life spent all alone?" "[you're] selfish and prideful and vain"

Yeah, you two really drifted apart over time, huh?

Part 1 (Highly suggested)

Long awaited part 2!

I couldn't fit all 759 voices/circles/squiggles in the last panel :(

Geez Odysseus, if I can't fit all of them in a square box, then just how exactly loud are those screams?

The suitors: You can leave Queen Penelope alone for a while. She’s a grown woman, and you’re a grown man. Why do you stay by her side so often?

Telemachus:

[rocker-socks]

People talking about how Telemachus is written too young and "his song is more fitted to a 13 year old than a 20 year old" is both really funny and also kinda depressing.

There’s actual reasons - in Ancient Greece 20 year old men, while certainly not considered children, also weren't thought of as adults but instead youths. Admiteddly this a more atens leaning take, but even in Sparta men weren't allowed to hold political positions until they turned 30.

In a more modern take, as a 20 year old this is exactly how my peers act and feel. The vast majority of people in their early twenties have no idea what the hell they're doing.

Obviously not so much a tumblr problem - aged demographic and all - but also both really funny and a little sad to see on tiktok. Yes 14 year old, even at 20 you will be yearning to be Great with no idea how to do so.

Currently working on a graphic novel (which will still be a concept until an editor decides it's worth paying me to complete), I don't have much yet, working on concept pages. For now have those character drawings as I keep working on scenario and storyboarding-

The temporary title is Odysseus: the last journey, and it's going to be pretty much a sequel to the Odyssey. Featuring Telemachus, Diomedes, and a lot of old and godly faces.

“He is very small…”

Reading the Iliad and crying a little when Odysseus is called the father of Telemachus

Odysseus would be the type of dad who would let baby Telemachus taste a lemon just to see the funny face he makes.

Odysseus Reveals Sanity

Inktober day 4. Dodge

You can dodge the draft or dodge the baby, there is no secret third option. I haven’t attempted reading the Iliad since I was ten, but being screwed over by your past decision is very on-brand

[sleeping-at-sea]

How much do you think Astyanax(the infant Odysseus killed) looked like baby Telemachus?

Do you think he had the same dark brown eyes?

The same curl to his brown hair?

The same tan skin?

The same giggle?

The same innocent look in his eyes?

How much did this infant look like his son, before he killed him?

[cosmini]

GODDAMIT ATHENA REALLY DID JUST LOOK AT TELEMACHUS AND GO "FUCK ITS BABY ODY"

TELEMACHUS WHOLE EXCITEMENT AFTER NOT DYING IN HIS LITTLE BRAWL WAS JUST TOO MUCH FOR HER. ATHENA JUST LOOKED AT THAT AND SAW THE BOY WHO HUNTED HER MAGIC BULL FOR SHITS AND GIGGLES. AND. SHE. BROKE.
