We know everyone cried at WYFILWMA but am I the only one who cried in the Challenge?
Specifically, Though I never thought that this would be the length we go for love, I would not have it other way part
Idk, it just felt really emotional(and we also have whole Penelope sitting behind axes thing) but it always makes me tear up and I have no idea why
#odysseus#epic the musical#epic#the odyssey#odypen#Penelope#Ithaca Saga#Challenge#am I the only one who cried in that part#idk it just always makes me tear up???#also its my fav part#thought it'd be “Whoever can string my husband's old bow” part#but nope#it was this part#starting from “Cause I'd rather die than go all without the best of you”#Ithaca saga broke me and healed me at one time#idk Mr. Jalapeño is genius

Stared into the wall for like 5 minutes and had a crazy vision (more like "hear"sion lol) of an extended version of Just A Man
Everything stays the same but after the second stanza (at least I think it's the second,,, after "How could I hurt you?") there were 2 more stanzas (more quiet, the main one is still "just a man motif") of Eurylochus and Polites, with their own melodies blended in the main soundtrack (much like Odysseus' "will these actions haunt my days, every man I've slain"; the lyrics change depending on the character)
And the third stanza instead of just Odysseus singing there was something like:
"I'm just a man (Ody), who's trying to go home (all three; main voice is still Ody's)
Even after all the years (O) away from all I've known (all three)
I'm just a man (O) who's fighting for his life (all three)"
And then "deep down I would trade the world..." was just Odysseus but my brain inserted an insane voice crack in there
Ensemble followed as usual without changes.
Hope this makes any sense at all :D
#of course this would only do as a bonus track for those who are already familiar with the story and characters#i just have a very vivid imagination and headphones in ears like... chronically#and i want poli and eury to get more screentime#maybe those two additional stanzas would make following songs with them both more impactful idk#i cant even pretend to claim levels of genius our mr jalapeño has#but anywayyy#epic the musical#epic the troy saga#the troy saga#epic odysseus#odysseus#epic polites#polites#epic eurylochus#eurylochus
