Okay but tell me why this part of Full Speed Ahead always gives me chills.
Like what? The longing, the excitement, the emotion. It always gets me.

During "Full Speed Ahead", Odysseus goes: "Ithaca is waiting. My Kingdoom is waiting. Penelope is waiting for me." Whilst the chorus goes: "Ithaca's waiting. The Kingdoom is waiting. ....waiting." Do you think that little space where they don't repeat Penelope's name, they're saying to themselves their own loved ones names. For example, Eurylochus would go: "Ithaca's waiting. The Kingdoom is waiting. Ctimene is waiting."
And then they never make it home.
HAHA

Full Speed Ahead comic I made months ago that's been sitting in my drive. I was really proud of it at the time and I owe it to past me to still acknowledge it now (even if every single part of it makes me mad). This was my final for a comics class I took a while ago and my professor made working on this thing absolute hell.
Anyway, glad I'm not a comics artist anymore lmao, mad respect to everyone who can sustain the workflow because I certainly cannot.

POLITES: (pointing) Look! There in the distance, I see an island! I see a light that faintly glows. Maybe they’re people lighting a fire. Maybe they’ll share some food, who knows?
EURYLOCHUS: (stops peering into the distance to stare at POLITES) “Share?” Is that what we’re calling it now? (pretending to be an islander) “Oh gee, we have so much food, what do we do with it all? If only six hundred starving soldiers would turn up to help us eat it!” (drops act) They “share” because we have 600 swords, you delusional fool!
ODYSSEUS: (ignoring them both) Something feels off here. I see fire, but there’s no smoke.
EURYLOCHUS: I say we strike first! We don’t have time to waste, so let’s raid the place and—
ODYSSEUS: (cutting him off) No. Polites, gear up. You and I’ll go ahead. We should try to find a way that no one ends up dead.
EURYLOCHUS: (incredulous) Assuming for some reason these island people just willingly hand over what’s probably a whole month’s supply of food for their entire village…you and Polites are just going to bring it back enough food for six hundred men? By yourselves?
POLITES: (looking admiringly at ODYSSEUS) He’s very strong.
EURYLOCHUS: (to POLITES) Remind me… How did you survive a whole decade as a soldier in a siege?
POLITES: (without shame) I stayed behind Odysseus, mostly.
EURYLOCHUS: Right. And you killed how man Trojans, doing that?
POLITES: (earnestly) Oh, I don’t like killing. I’m a pacifist. Greet the world with open arms!
EURYLOCHUS: …
POLITES: …
EURYLOCHUS: What the f*ck, dude.

The following exchange just came to mind, this happens between Full Speed Ahead and Open Arms
Polites: Friend! What's up with the long face?
Odysseus: Astyanax was trying to say his first words this morning
Polites: but that's great! I don't see the problem
Odyssey: he was saying "oopeet", I thought he was trying to say "full speed"...
Polites: and?
Odysseus: when he finally was able to pronounce it better, it became obvious he was just calling me "stupid"
Polites: ...

Y'know the part of The Vengeance Saga that really got me emotional?
Like obviously several parts made me feel things, but only one part in particular made my heart truly ache.
In the beginning of Dangerous, Odysseus sings "'Cause I had one goal in mind" in the same way he once sang "With only one goal in mind" back in the beginning of "Full Speed Ahead." In "Full Speed Ahead", this line is immediately followed by the crew singing "Make it back alive to our homeland."
But when he says it in "Dangerous", there is no response. It is just silence. For five seconds, there is nothing.
Odysseus isn't like the gods, able to summon a chorus of voices at will. He is only supported by real, living—or once living—people. When there are none left, it is quiet.
He is truly, utterly, completely alone.
#of course this is proved wrong like two songs later with the chorus of voices of those he's lost#but i don't count that cause that was either hallucinogenic or supernatural#epic the musical#odysseus#the odyssey#jorge rivera herrans#epic: the musical#epic the troy saga#epic the vengeance saga#the vengeance saga#full speed ahead#dangerous

To follow up on this post, it would be so freaking funny if when Annabeth is telling Percy about Odysseus/the Odyssey, the screen cuts to an actual depiction of the narration, and Jay Herrans as Ody is like standing at the bow of the ship and pointing ahead and stuff and they're singing Full Speed Ahead. Cut back to Percabeth, and Percy's like, "...why are they singing?" I would p e r i s h

So we're back at "why do didn't Odysseus just fucking fish".
I did a lil math
They had 600 miles to sail, a ship in ancient greece had around 8 miles per hour, give or take. That's 75 hours.
75 HOURS
If Odysseus just would've eaten fish instead of being a picky little bitch boy he would've been home in 4 DAYS MINIMUM WITH THE RIGHT WIND AND FULL SPEED. 4 MOTHERFUCKING DAYS.
ODYSSEUS WHY ARE YOU STUPID

I love "Open Arms" from Epic the Musical. The main singer's voice sounds like he's smiling, WHICH I LOVE, and it always cheers me up. But also, like, it's so fucking funny.
So Polites is like, "This life is amazing! Greet the world with open arms! Show trust, and be trusted!" All that fun stuff. And then they meet the lotus eaters, and he goes, "Odysseus be nice." And Odysseus just. threatens them into giving him what they want (food). And I know a lot of people interpret Polites's next few lines as "See? Being nice worked!" But for me, I see it as "Okay, okay, okay. That's a little wrong, but you've kinda got it. Okay, okay. We can work with this!" Especially with the enthusiastic way it was sung. IDK man I just found it super funny.
Of course, they learn it's mind controlling lotus, so Polites tries it his own way (asking nicely), which is what he likely preferred Odysseus had done. And he got an answer! (Non mind controlling food!) Also jives with the softer way he sung, "This life is amazing when you greet it with open arms," in the next chorus. Because look! He did it gently! And so he repeats his message in a gentler tone.
Anyway, Im gonna relisten to it again because I love Polites's voice.
