Someone said that Brennan in the Dimension 20 live shows poster was hitting the DreamWorks eyebrow/pose and I really couldn’t help myself

BrennanMind?? Brennan Lee Mullimind???

[epitome-of-an-openbook]

I love the edits people make of the romances between two NPC characters from Dimension 20 because its literally like:

*Clip of Brennen Lee Mulligan slightly facing left*

*Cut to -*

*Clip of Brennan Lee Mulligan facing slightly right (and sometimes wearing a different shirt)*

and over the top of that is one of the most heartwrenching songs ever made.

aparently there’s discourse about the odyssey on twitter which centers mostly around ugh i haven’t read your stupid american book!!! and as an ex latin student i’m offended more people weren’t reduced to tears having to translate it from latin for a real live grade and then subjected to the weird documentary film version, including the part where your teacher had to fast forward through all the sex scenes so you only watched less than half the movie

Menelaus: So, how’s parenthood treating you? Penelope: Good. I didn’t expect this much crying, though. Menelaus: Don’t worry, it’s normal for babies. Penelope: What? The baby’s fine. I was talking about Odysseus. Odysseus, sobbing from Telemacus' room: I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!

Life advice

Percy: Man, I wish the gods noticed us for once-

Odysseus: *Grabs Percy by the shoulders* No you don't.

Percy: Wha-

Odysseus: No, you don't. Go live your life, run free, stay in school, start a family whatever you do just don't be a favorite of the Gods. Stay neglected by them, trust me.

Percy: Wait- you're Odysseus, that's so cool! Wait aren't you a favorite of the gods-?

Odysseus: Yes and believe me when I say it's not as glorifying as you think it is-

Zeus: OOOOH ODYSSEUS~!! WHO WANTS SOME GOOD CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT US GENEROUS GODS WANNA OH SO DEARLY GIVE TO YOU~!?

Odysseus: FUCK THEY FOUND ME-! RUN! SAVE YOURSELF-!

Started a new book series, and has been a journey...an Odyssey, if you will.

i was watching an aurora nebbins compilation video and i am absolutely obsessed with the implications of this comment i saw

i love this person's mind. they thought this and never questioned why dimension 20 would replace murph in the intrepid heroes with ANOTHER murph and NEVER mention it ever again. and i think that's fucking beautiful. this is my new reality now thx

Overcoming the slightest challenge of my day: “This is just like the Odyssey.”

Odysseus and Menelaus parallels are scary!

Soooo isn't anyone gonna talk, after all my posts, on how the two very good friends during the Homeric Poems, Odysseus and Menelaus have similarly meaning names? No? Okay then I suppose I have to, then and I will!

Odysseus: => ὀδύσσο��αι (odyssomai)= to be angry at, to be bitter against, to hate

Menelaus: => μένος (menos)=anger, fury, vigor + λαός (laos)= people, army

So we have basically:

Odysseus: Anger Bringer, Angry/Furious, Hated

Menelaus: Fury of the People, Anger of the People, Vigor of the Army

So just for your information the two heroes that share so much in common;

their love for their home

the love for their wife (a very beautiful and very intelligent wife!)

agruably both married a princess that was out of their league at that time (Menelaus married Helen who was a princess of a powerful kingdom, arguably a demigoddess while he was an exiled prince once and a second son and Odysseus...yeah come on! The Prince/King from a small kingdom arrived in Sparta without even adequate wedding gifts or no gifts at all and left with a Spartan princess! Way you go champion!)

the love for their only child they left behind (the possibility of both of them having children outside of marriage in post-homeric sources for different reasons to he back of our heads)

their connection to Sparta by marriage

their adventure with being shipwrecked

consequently having to beg for the help of another ruler

coming home several years after the end of the war

the two characters that went to Troy to negotiate

one of them would absolutely be capable of starting a war for the woman he loved, the other one did it

two emotional men who share their sadness and happiness gladly with people they trust and love

both suffered trials and tirbulations (Menelaus was exiled from his own home as a young man, Odysseus wandere all over Mediterannean at his later age)

So the two dudes that share ALL this they also share a similar sounding name that also dictates their position in the war and the importance but also how they also suffer and how much anger they invoked but also felt deep inside!

And these two share such a strong friendship!!!! Suffer with me now!

Hello! Could you do hcs of Telemachus?? Thankyouu

Telemachus x Reader Hcs (Romantic)

Author note: Thank you so much for requesting, this was honestly a big help to snap me out off my writers block 🙏

TW: None. This is fluff.

🕯️ - Having Telemachus as a partner was not something you out right expected, but it wasn’t something you were opposed to. After all, you should be happy that the Prince of Ithaca had chosen you of all people to be his lover.

🏵️- Even so, it still came as a surprise to you. Especially when he came up to you with a sheepish, yet charming look on his face asking if you were free to come walk with him. How could you say no? But that’s the thing,.you didn’t.

🕯️- It happened late in the afternoon..the Greek sun high in the sky as you stood in front of your home sweeping dust away to make the place looks somewhat presentable and out of nowhere he showed up. Looking as awkward as a young teenaged boy asking his crush to prom.

🏵️- Introducing himself and asking for your name which you happily gave him before he told you why he was here. He looked a little nervous at first but when you agreed to his offer he couldn’t have been happier. And that’s just about how your meeting went with the young prince and from that day forward, he’d come by whenever you were free and asked to go for a walk.

🕯️-And for the first few months you enjoyed his company. You’d often find yourself over at the palace watching him train or listening to him ramble about his future plans.

🏵️-If you’re the type to ramble as well, he’ll gladly be quiet and listen to you rant on about anything and everything. And even if you don’t, he still loves to listen to you. Your voice being a source of comfort. 🕯️-He’ll often confide in you about how he misses his father and how he hopes that he comes home soon..

🏵️- It’s been years! And of course you haven’t seen the king too- you were both nothing but babies at the times most of the men and Odysseus were called into war.

🕯️- Of course you’d comfort the prince, telling that it’d be okay and that his father would come sooner than later, which Telemachus appreciated.

🏵️-Soon enough though, Telemachus found himself staring to fall for you and he wasted no time in showing up at your home and asking if it would be alright for him to court you.

🕯️-The look of surprise on your face made him worried at first, thinking you’d say no to him. But you didn’t- you actually said yes.

🏵️- And he couldn’t have been happier, of course he immediately took you into his arms and spun you around, nuzzling his face into your neck before putting you down and taking your hand to go and spend time with you.

🕯️- His love language is acts of service and physical touch. He loves to just hold your hand or do things for you, anything at all. You need help cleaning? He’s over at your house immediately. You want someone to come with you to the market? He’ll be your personal chaperone.

🏵️- He’s not much of a cook but he tries he’s best, often asking his mother, Penelope or some servants for advice on how to improve.

🕯️- Telemachus just can’t wait for the day his dad comes home, wanting to introduce you to him and hopefully getting his approval.

🏵️- And when you finally do meet the king himself, he accepts you with open arms. Even if he was a bit apprehensive at first, but anything for his son.

🕯️- Telemachus isn’t too possessive, but he is protective to an extent. Like his father with the suitors, he’s willing to swing a sword if he has to, he can’t stand the idea of someone trying to, or rather attempt at wooing you.

🏵️- He loves to call you his ‘Little sparrow..’, to him, it just fits. Of course he’ll call you the usual nicknames, like ‘my love’ , ‘darling’, ‘sweetheart’.. but his main one it sweet song bird nicknames.

🕯️- He’s definitely the type of man to fuss over you if you get injured. Making sure you’re alright first, asking what caused it then ranting about how you need to be more careful, even just a little. After he patches you up he gives you a kiss before pulling you into his arms.

🏵️- Finally, Telemachus is the type of man to value those sweet little moments you both have. When you finally share a bed, he treasures the small moments before you go to sleep..rubbing your back softly and cooing or early in the morning..10 minutes before you both decide to get up.. whispering sweet nothings to you and massaging your arm lightly..peppering your cheeks with kisses.

Eeeeee! This was fun to right other than my usual boys. Thank you for requesting, I hope you enjoy this. I’m sorry it’s a bit shorter Tyana I wanted, I tried my best- but if I get more Telemachus requests I’ll improve on the hcs and probably X readers too.💕

Odysseus: "oh no we’re all doomed by the narrative" Odysseus: Maybe you are. I’m the narrative’s favorite. [later] Odysseus: Update: Turns out this is not a good thing for me.

[incorrecthomer]

Odysseus: I made lightly fried fish fillets for dinner. Penelope: Ody, It's 1:15 am, what the fuck. Odysseus: Do you want the lightly fried fish fillets or not. Penelope: Well, I mean yeah. Odysseus: So come downstairs while they're still hot. Penelope: Wait, you just made them? Odysseus: Yeah, I wasn't tired so I decided to make lightly fried fish fillets. Penelope: Say lightly fried fish fillets one more time Odysseus
