Hermes said "remember every trick in your domain for this"

So Odysseus opened the wind bag.

He disguised himself as an old man like with the wooden horse to get back into the palace.

Hermes said "you need a mind set change for this" and "fight your way through, do what you must do"

So Odysseus stabbed Poseidon over and over again forcing him to stop the storm.

Hermes said "no matter what keep moving"

So he sailed past the Charybdis.

Hermes told him to remember every trick.

So he took down the torches to attack the suitors like scilla

And honestly? I believe Hermes reminder to "not open the bag"? Was just what he had to say. He was supposed to tell Odysseus to not open it. But Hermes being Hermes gave Ody a little push, a little wink wink.

i have this sneaking feeling that „odysseus“ is going to include a reprise of „different beast“ and i do not know why

[insomniphic]

What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?

*looks at all the comics I made*

Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?

But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...

...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.

What if he fails again?

These lines (first from the films, thereafter from the books) taught me something profoundly essential about how to be there for a friend, a lover, or a loved one when they are consumed by despair, weighed down by grief, or overwhelmed by the weight of mental torment. It taught me that some burdens are sacredly personal; untransferable tasks that each of us must face in our own time and way.

Yet, while we cannot take their pain or carry their burden for them (no matter how much we wish we could), there is something else we can do. While we cannot lift their burden, we can lift them. We can carry their weary body, their weary heart, as they bear the weight of their pain. In doing so, we offer them a sanctuary — a place of care and safety, where they can begin to confront their hurt without the fear of being alone in its gaze.

While the pain may be theirs to bear, the journey through it need not be traveled in solitude.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien, I love you.

"Sharing is caring" i guess..?

Well, i wanted to draw Ody again - didnt just think it would be in this type. I'm come to point that my brain is just Amfi + Posy mush for while so throw Ody just in the mix then.

Yes Manwhore Au it is

Telemachus, crying that he finally gets to meet his dad: “For twenty years, I never could outgrow you”

Odysseus, the short king, also crying: son, you are several inches taller then I am

2 pieces of Would You Fall In Love With Me Again details that I discovered through tiktok that has ALTERED MY BRAIN CHEMISTRY

Penelope sings waiting 8 times for 20 seconds representing the 8 sagas and 20 years she waited for Odysseus to come back to her

The melody of the "for" after these repetitions of the word waiting is sung in the same melody as "I am the reigning king of Ithica" cause you know that's who she was waiting for

look i know we’ve had these lyrics for a while now but going back with fresh eyes that have seen the vengeance saga: in “hold them down” when antinous talks about killing telemachus and how “only the ocean and i will know” i can only imagine poseidon, having freshly been given a resounding ass-kicking by odysseus for even mentioning threatening his son (among other things) going no no no motherfucker do NOT bring me into this i’m not doing this again

Little summary of what I did this year! Though the Adoni animatic was made during 2023, I did make an animatic (the french opera one) that ended with them banging each other as well… So this counts too!

my favorite thing about how everyone draws Odysseus

for what ever reason Odysseus is drawn as the shortest adult mortal character and honesty it's funny to me . Props to Ody the og short king.

Next is Apollo, Ares, Dionysus, and Hermes.
