#it is a DISASTER but it is a glorious disaster

[oddyseye]

I cannot stand the idea of Athena and Odysseus as a couple.

It's disgusting, it's weird, and honestly, it's the biggest insult to brain cells since mortals started thinking they could sail without checking the stars. But — and this is a big, glorious, golden but — the headcannon of every other Olympian thinks they’re lovers? That’s comedy gold. Athena, the eternal virgin, the impenetrable fortress of logic, brought low by the rumor mill of her own family. Hera: Alright, Athena, let’s talk about the wedding. So, for the dress—or should we go with a suit? Athena: Wait, what? Wedding? Who’s talking about a wedding? Hera: Oh, don’t play coy. You and Odysseus? It’s practically written in the stars. I’m thinking something classic, maybe a gown— Athena: Married?! I’m not marrying anyone! Hera: You can’t hide it forever, darling. A goddess like you deserves a big, beautiful wedding. Athena: Wedding? Hera, what in Olympus are you talking about? I’m not marrying anyone, let alone Odysseus! Zeus: She’s right, Hera. This is ridiculous. Athena marrying Odysseus? Over my dead lightning bolt. Hera: Zeus. Zeus: Uh… or… or maybe it’s a great idea? Love is beautiful. Yes, beautiful. Proceed. Athena: WHAT?! I’m not even in a relationship! Odysseus is a mortal man, and I see him as a son! A son! Aphrodite: Oh, spare us the dramatics, Athena. Everyone knows you’ve got a soft spot for him. You’ve been “mentoring” him for how long now? Athena: He’s my student, Aphrodite. I teach him. That’s it. Poseidon: I hate Odysseus. And I hate you for even considering this. But if you’re hell-bent on it, I suppose it’s your disaster to manage. Athena: I am not considering this! I— Dionysus: I’m here for whatever, as long as there’s wine. Athena, if you’re going through with this, I’ll make sure the reception’s lit. Athena: Dionysus, I am NOT getting married! Stop encouraging this! Dionysus: Hey, I’m just offering a little fun. You’ll need it after dealing with that guy. Right, cutie? Apollo: We are NOT friends, do NOT talk to me. Hermes: Athena, come on, you don’t want to marry a mortal? This mortal? You’ve spent so much time with him. Maybe you’re just too proud to admit it. Athena: Hermes, I will smite you where you stand— Hestia: Everyone, calm down. Athena, they’re just teasing you. But if you ever did want to settle down, it’s not the worst thing. Athena: It is the worst thing. This conversation is the worst thing. Hades: Marriage isn’t so bad. Persephone and I have made it work. Persephone: Exactly. And that mortal of yours is resourceful. That’s not a bad trait to have in a partner. Athena: He is not my partner! He’s a mortal — a mortal that I’m mentoring! Demeter: Mentoring. Sure. You keep telling yourself that. Athena: Demeter, don’t start. I mean it. Artemis: I don’t see why she has to marry anyone. Athena, I’m with you. Stay single. Keep your dignity. Athena: Thank you, Artemis. Artemis: But if you did marry him, it wouldn’t be the worst thing. He is brave. Athena: Artemis?! Zeus:....I still think this is a terrible idea… Hera: Zeus, sighing: Fine. I love it. Best idea ever. Carry on. Ares: He has to fight me to prove his worth! Athena: This conversation is over. Athena can’t even walk into the room without someone winking at her or asking how “her mortal boy toy” is doing. Zeus, king of being gross, looking genuinely scandalized for once. Hera planning her “totally hypothetical” wedding. What really gets me, though, is the idea that none of them even care about her protests. She could swear on the River Styx that she sees Odysseus as a son, and they’d still be like, “Sure, sweetie. Your son.” Meanwhile, she’s losing her helmet over it, and it’s just... chef’s kiss. Peak entertainment. I hate the ship, but I love the chaos.

i really wish i was drilling holes in wood right now.

*Gossiping after their respective mission briefs*

Rex: I’m probably gonna die.

Cody: Well you’ve lived a good life.

Rex: I’m ten!

Cody: *unbothered, sipping his caf* I said ‘good’ not ‘long’.

Do u ever sit and ponder the possibilities of what strange and chaotic and brand-image-breaking things would happen if W101 randomly decided to get an official tumblr acct,,

because I do

ㅤ“You will give me… something you love, and something you hate. Whatever you hate… once you give it to me you won’t ever have to worry about feeling upset over it again. I want to take that burden from you. But… there needs to be a balance. ㅤ“So, whatever you give me that you love, you will never feel the same way about it going forward. Not enjoyment, not a flicker of a smile. For the rest of your days you will be relieved of the burden of hatred but you will never feel passion for that which you love again. ㅤ“That is the cost of a pact with the Son of the Demon of Omniscience.”

"King and Jester story where those two hate each other but for some reason, the king can't kill the jester, so he is forced to deal with that absolute troll with that silly little hat Every Single Day" Literally cant help but think about Lucifer and Alastor xD

Just i can't wait what shenanigans those two get into next season considering their rooms are on the same floor

It's true that Alastor and Lucifer fits that dynamic. Well, technically speaking, they are on each side of the hotel, so maybe it won't be too bad?

flirting with the line (and then i crossed it)

The moment Van Palmer walked into the class reunion in a suit and a smile, Tai could tell the night was a certain kind of doomed.

(A fill for Taivan Week 2023, "Adult Timeline Saturday")

E, 12.4k words

“How long has it been?” Tai almost doesn’t recognize her voice. Almost can’t stomach the rough, sandpapery quality of it. How could this be her? How could this be Taissa Turner: carefully controlled, carefully modulated at all times? It can’t be explained. She only knows that the words have left her dry lips, plummeting to flatten themselves on the table between them, and that the blue eyes narrowing across from her are too knowing. “You don’t want to hear about that,” Van says coolly.

What isn't great about this clip (besides how 3 of them are graduated TT)

I'll dig up the sourcing later

Dear Vector Prime,

Is there a world where the Deceptacons have had the misfortune of having their plans intersect with any variation of John Constantine aka, Con-Job, the Laughing Magician, protagonist of Hellblazer, and glorious bisexual disaster?

Dear Vertigo Visionary,

I believe it may have happened when the Justice League encountered the Transformers. Though come to think of it, I once knew knew a Constructicon named Glorious Bisexual Disaster.

I guess it's just one of those names.

The fact that I was slightly off on Lucanis's hair color and the metal on the back of his coat in an entire 25 panel set will haunt me forever. Adjusting my characters flats ref file rn, after I stop wheezing because I always forget everyone has googly eyes in it

oc x canon - at this point I'm just piling AUs

[the-busy-ghost]

Warning- this is a very petty post, but I think I'm entitled to at least one petty, pissed-off reaction every time I finish a classic novel that hit harder than I expected so take this as my quota for the year.

Also spoiler warning for a book that came out over a century ago but still, I didn't know the plot going in so don't want to ruin it for anyone else, if you haven't read it shut your eyes. (Also Local Tumblr User Going Wild Over Book Published a Hundred Years Ago That Everybody Else Already Read should probably be categorised as akey part of indigenous tumblr culture at this point).

Anyway I just finished the War of the Worlds and in between studying I've thinking about Themes and Motifs as you do, and idly looking for further analysis. I then accidentally ran into an article called 'A Quiet Place II Succeeds Where the War of the Worlds Failed' and:

Now I haven't seen any of the Quiet Place films, this is not a rant against them and of course everyone is entitled to their own opinions. But re: the ending of The War of the Worlds, I have to ask, did this guy somehow miss, uh, the entire point of the book or am I just utterly insane?

[hiddenintheveil]

watch how fast i can bind a book. i will post progress pics

[senditothemoonn]

here you are, my dear. it's me, the rat girl genius, bravely removing the veil of anonymity. i'm sorry this took so long - i read heatwave, proceeded to lose consciousness and had to be revived with smelling salts. additionally, i now have an obligation to complete the punk dad! arthur fic.

i really hope you enjoy reading this as much as i liked writing it. these two are so fun together. please let me know what you think, and take a gander at my other works if they pique your interest. just to warn you and everyone else, this is explicit as explicit gets. R A U N C H Y.

YOOO WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME

I’m screaming, crying, throwing 🆙 this was a glorious fic and I had such a good time reading it (¬‿¬) and if you guys are desperately in need of some scotfra smut (like I was) then I can’t beg you to read it enough (take the tags into consideration obviously because it is DEFINITELY quite raunchy!)

To paraphrase John Stewart: Don't heckle the supervillain, Miles.
