#iliad diomedes

[stars-and-guts]

guys exams are coming up and im so glad people are autistic about greek mythology because not only will i owe my life to litcharts i will probably also owe it to most of tumblr

that being said i thought diomedes appears a lot in the iliad but isnt like the iliad equivalent of yaoi jesus (achilles and patroclus cough cough) so i would be able to find a small niche community of people analyzing him and characterizing him just enough for me to get inspiration for my project

tell me why its all yaoi. i can only find yaoi. guys. i know tumblr needs to make every man kiss every man but please. im gripping the floor i cant do this anymore.

...Then Diomed prayed, saying, "Hear me, daughter of aegis-bearing Jove, unweariable, if ever you loved my father well and stood by him in the thick of a fight, do the like now by me; grant me to come within a spear's throw of that man and kill him. He has been too quick for me and has wounded me; and now he is boasting that I shall not see the light of the sun much longer."

Decided to revisit some Iliad designs and polish them up! Semi-canon to my EPIC designs. Odysseus is just too jacked lol

in which during odysseus' absence, diomedes is the only man allowed inside penelope's bedroom. though he helps her at the loom, he refuses to desecrate the bed and what it represents; the most he can do when she cries is to kneel beside it to comfort her.

^badly paraphrased off of @shouldertheskies so sorry

I completely forgot that I made this OdyDio comic a while back- but here ya go! ( And yes, I did not check the grammar )
