Penelope's final gambit, you will always be famous, no matter the subtext.
#poorly drawn odyssey#the odyssey#odysseus#penelope#epic the musical#Epic's version was very sweet and very well executed (and so cathartic!)#But Odyssey Penelope is *so* done with all the bullshit at this point in the story.#Credit where it is due; at this point she's been through a lot.#And to top if all off - her own son and one of the few maids on her side are buying into this (supposed) ruse.#This cannot have been the only time someone tried to pull this trick on her either.#Its the contrast between: 'Oh you're My husband?' and 'Ohh *sureeee* you're my husband. Just like the 30 other 'Odys' before you.'#The olive tree bed trick is a great gambit because it really is the final test to verify his identity.#I'm just a sucker for couples who have a secret only they know between them I suppose!#The match each other in will and wit! They will always find each other!!!#Anyways. The Odyssey is a worthwhile read and I highly recommend it. Epic is also a great musical worth checking out.

Love seeing the new generation find out how, well, gay "Wicked" is.
Closeted high femme dressed as the lesbian flag not getting on her rebellious activist bestie's broom and regretting it for the rest of her conformist life.
#wicked#gelphie#tbf the books are much gayer bc everyone there is bi by default. some interpret book elphaba as intersex. her son is bi and has both a male#lover and a female one. elphie kisses glinda before they part and it's not clear whether or not they had sex when they slept together#in the same bed.#but anyway at least this film added some side gay characters swooning over fiyero <3#crope and tibbett my beloved side flamboyant gays that were removed from the musical. jail for musical! for that and for#the forced love triangle. book glinda never had a thing with fiyero--although tbf even in the musical that comes off as#somewhat performative on glinda's part bc she cares about her image and fiyero is the perfect guy for that

Okay so with the line "the olive tree where we first met" we have two equal hilarious options.
When penelope was sassily like oh I'll marry you if you make a living bed out of this tree right here! Cue penelope stumbling over odysseus very very carefully digging up the tree "because how else is he going to get it to itacha we can't have a wedding bed out in the open in sparta duh"
Or
2. Penelope, knowing that Helen's suitors would soon be arriving to take over her home for a while. Snuck out and went on her own wacky shenanigan filled journey where she scoped out all the major players. Odysseus caught her spying in an olive tree. And when she got back she told Helen she had dibs on the cutie from itacha.
#epic the musical#epic spoilers#Itacha saga#penelope#Odysseus#Odypen#odysseus x penelope#Young odypen courting was filled with wacky nonsense basically canon confrimed#The line “....where we first met” implying that they first met under that specific olive tree#Which has to have some absolutely insane logistics that only odypen (and maybe Athena) could pull off#Odypen being 🥰 🤝 rat bastards in love#Option one odysseus Athena please please please helpppp me pen said she'd only marry me if I made a wedding bed out of this tree#Athena: once again I think you are praying to the wrong person but fuck it how do you think you're going to keep that tree alive#Odysseus: ....a large bucket?#Athena gimme a sec okay I need to go have ares bash my skull in before I watch something this stupid#Athena: checking in on penelope her chosen weaver only for her to be pulling her hair out#Penelope (to her cousins): why did I fucking say that! Beating fathers already an impossible challenge why did I say that#He's going to think I was making fun of him! He's not going to want to marry me now!#Helen: weren't you? Making fun of him?#Penelope: That's not the point!#clytemnestra: Hey he's digging the tree up and has the biggest bucket I've ever seen#Penelope: what?! Trips over every item in the room and gets tangled in her curtains blushing like crazy#Athena: ....it's been a while since I checked up on diomedes training. He'd never put me through this nonsense#Option 2#Helen's maybe a little nervous and wants to know more about who she has to potentially marry and penelope promises her she'll get rundown#Helen did not expect penelope to disappear but she probably should have....it'll probably be fine. Right?#Some kings penlope just straight up greets some she stays hidden and spies#Odysseus is the only one who catches her (he trains woth Athena in the olive Grove#She was not happy when odysseus nearly tripped onto her spear point face first when he saw the strange pretty girl)#And odysseus who's been king for a few years now knows every lady's face because he'll probably have to marry one of them someday

I know that penelope saying "don't tell me you're not the same person, you're always my husband" is just supposed to be her saying that all she cares about is that he's odysseus and he loves her (and don't get me wrong it IS incredibly sweet and romantic and it makes me tear up a little)
but considering the first thing odysseus does in the musical is commit war crimes and then he just never stops at all, it tickles me to think that she's also saying he's always been a horrible little monster, she's always known, and she thinks the horrors are part of the fun.
#what she says: I don't care what you did as long as you're odysseus and I can still break your heart I love you#what I hear: oh come on ofc the crimes were never going to make me stop loving you AND the monster thing was stupid that's just all you#(3rd condition for her loving him still is that she can still mess with him ofc)#(I will say I find the way it was sung in the snippets more pleasant? bt it's v satisfying how passionate she sounds in the final version)#epic the musical#mine#yeah ofc odysseus wasn't committting war crimes before he had to leave his palace that he built around an olive tree bed#but come on. the potential was always there.

Anyway, after watching the Wicked movie again, I think my ideal outcome of the love triangle in a canon divergence scenario is "Gelphie and their free-range boytoy Fiyero who comes and goes as he pleases."
#before anyone asks#yes i have seen the musical#i have also read the book#i just love the comedic potential of this concept#and it's kind of how they read to me in the movie anyway#gelphie#gliyeraba#they won't seem him for months at a time sometimes#then they just wake up in the morning to find he managed to worm his way between them in bed#idk if his relationship with both or either of them is romantic or queerplatonic in this scenario#doesn’t matter#he's there when he wants to be#and who knows what he’s doing the rest of the time#(slutting it up and going on adventures i hope)#(good for him)#...i actually have a lot of thoughts about what their dynamics would look like in a very specific time of canon divergence au#but we don't need to go into that#wicked 2024#wicked

I know we all desperately need to heal after the Ithaca Saga, but I can't stop thinking about the aftermath of everything. When the initial euphoria settles down and they have to deal with the consequences of, well, EVERYTHING. And especially how strained Odysseus and Telemachus' relationship becomes when neither of their expectations is met and they don't know how to deal with the reality in front of them. That they're both real people and not the idealized versions of each other they kept in their heads for 20 years. And Penelope once again trapped amidst the tension in her family, but this time she has to be the bridge between the two people she loves the most in the entire world. And Telemachus changes so much in the meantime she feels like she's learning to be a mother again. All of that while Odysseus is just learning to be a father for the first time. Just. The angst.
#epic the musical#epic odysseus#epic the ithaca saga#telemachus#epic telemachus#epic penelope#odysseus#penelope#the odyssey#ok last one before going to bed

here is the second poseidon 'snippet'. this takes place after this part! hope you guys enjoy a little look into poseidon's home life...
first snippet here!
there's a masterlist now!
*not long after poseidon had received telemachus’ gift and said good night to everyone*
poseidon: *making his way through the ithacan palace’s halls to the entrance for the gardens*
poseidon: *holds a hand to where the gift is kept in his chiton and thinks back to all of telemachus' questions and interest in him*
poseidon: *internally to himself* hmm i wonder what he would have thought, if he knew his father’s and mine’s true relationship-
odysseus: *calling from behind poseidon* poseidon!
poseidon: *jumps a little because he didn’t hear odysseus approaching*
poseidon: *puts his hand down and turns to face odysseus*
poseidon: odysseus…i’ve been gone only moments, what have i possibly done?
odysseus: nothing-
poseidon: *hand on his hip* what do you want then?
poseidon: *pinches his nose bridge with his free hand* please don’t say another dinner
odysseus: what- no!- *coughs*
odysseus: trust me there will be no family dinners for a while…
odysseus: *under his breath* sitting for hours next to you was enough ruthlessness for one evening
poseidon: *dropping his hand from his face* what was that?
odysseus: i said what i said
poseidon: *rolls his eyes* well next time, maybe don’t let my niece get involved
odysseus: *grinning* oh so you want a next time then?
poseidon: *hand drops from hip and slightly panicking* THAT’S NOT- I MEAN-
odysseus: *tucks hair behind his ear*
odysseus: oh poseidon, as good as that sounds….
odysseus: *now has his arms crossed over his chest*
odysseus: *facade drops* …no thanks.
poseidon: *sigh of relief*
poseidon: just- just tell me why you’re here
odysseus: *still in little shit mode* i mean this is my palace, i do live here
poseidon: *about to start pulling out his own hair in frustration*
poseidon: odysseus…please
odysseus: *grin returns* yes, yes, go on, since you’ve already proven you’re so good at begging…
poseidon: *scowls*
odysseus: *grin finally leaves his face and his arms return to his sides*
odysseus: ok look… i just thought, considering i was the host for this evening, i would follow xenia and escort you back to the cove…
poseidon: *sighs*
poseidon: *shakes his hand in front of him in a ‘no worries’ motion*
poseidon: no need… i’m able to make my own way back home
odysseus: are you sure? i mean they are your brother’s rules…
odysseus: *not really wanting to ever see zeus again after his last experiences*
poseidon: *dropping his hand and snorting out a laugh* i’ll make sure my brother doesn’t bother anyone about the lack of normal hospitality tonight
poseidon: *turning back around to leave* go back to your family odysseus
odysseus: *not to look a gift horse in the mouth* uh sure
odysseus: *about to turn and make his way back to the dining hall*
poseidon: *from over his shoulder* oh and odysseus?
odysseus: uh yeah?
poseidon: …don’t go easy on my niece
poseidon: remember… ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves
odysseus: *rolls his eyes and while he now knows that phrase isn’t true now….he decides to humor poseidon*
odysseus: wasn’t planning on it.
*both leave in opposite directions*
*a short while later in poseidon’s palace*
poseidon: *walking into the bedroom* wife i’m back
*no response or movement*
poseidon: *raised eyebrow as he thought she’d be home* amphitrite?
*still nothing*
poseidon: *sighs* i guess she made last minute plans for tonight
poseidon: *goes to get changed when he remembers about his gift*
poseidon: *takes the gift out of his chiton, unwraps it and looks at it again*
poseidon: *remember telemachus' smile from the happiness of him accepting it*
poseidon: *huffs a laugh at the fact that odysseus produced a son that may look identical to him, but completely different in personality*
amphitrite: what’s got you laughing? what do you have there?
poseidon: *quickly shoves the gift back in his chiton, and turns to face his wife*
poseidon: *dodging her question* i thought you weren't here… you didn’t respond to my calls
amphitrite: i was just checking on fysallída, he hadn’t been his usual self tonight.
poseidon: *eyes widen in worry*
poseidon: what do you mean? he was fine earlier! is he sick? should i call apollo?
amphitrite: *smiles at poseidon’s worried rambling*
amphitrite: *moves closer to poseidon and brushes her hand through his hair in comfort*
amphitrite: and he still is fine my love. i think he just missed you tonight.
amphitrite: also while our nephew may be able to help some animals… i don’t think sea creatures fall under his ability
amphitrite: besides, he was playing with pelagos and kýma
poseidon: *the worry leaves his eyes* if you say so... i’ll just check on him before we go to sleep.
amphitrite: *hand leaves poseidon’s hair, and now joins her other one in crossing over her chest*
amphitrite: now, back to my original question…. what do you have there that had you laughing?
poseidon: *was hoping she’d forget* uh… uhh…
poseidon: …moly?
amphitrite: *raised eyebrow*
amphitrite: the king of ithaca- odysseus gave you…moly?
poseidon: *furrowed brows at the thought of odysseus giving him a gift*
poseidon: this isn't from odysse- *coughs* i mean- no… he didn't
poseidon: it's… from his son.
amphitrite: *now has both her eyebrows raised in disbelief*
amphitrite: the prince of ithaca, gave you moly.
poseidon: *now panicking as he's the god of the seas, not of lies*
poseidon: well if you didn’t know…they're descended from hermes…
poseidon: and he practically hands out this stuff… the prince probably didn’t know what it truly was.
amphitrite: *staring at the clear not moly shaped item, hidden in her husband’s chiton*
amphitrite: *deciding to leave it be for now* uh huh, whatever you say husband
*poseidon leaves the bedroom and heads to the palace reef gardens where amphitrite had not long come from*
*sensing the gods approach, bioluminescent corals light the area like oil lamps would on land*
poseidon: *staring out into the reef* hmm where is he?
poseidon: *makes a whistling noise like a dolphin’s echolocation*
*two whinny’ing noises are heard, then seconds later two hippocampi appear and are hurriedly making their way to poseidon*
poseidon: *strokes the both of them on their faces* yes, yes i'm home… where’s fysallída?
poseidon: *suddenly feels something small, bump repeatedly into him from behind and hears tiny grunting sounds*
poseidon: *snorts in laughter and turns around*
*the tiny grunting noises get louder and quicker in excitement, the small sea creature that has been bumping into poseidon is none other than…a small yellow pufferfish*
poseidon: *placing his hand out for fysallída to settle into* hello little one, i heard you caused amphitrite some worry earlier
*fysallída puffs out a little bit and then wiggles more into poseidon’s hand still making tiny noises*
poseidon: ah! none of that…i said i was going to be gone this evening
poseidon: besides, i can’t always be home, i do have godly things to do i'm sorry to say
*pelagos and kýma both whinny at poseidon’s back*
poseidon: *turning around with fysallída still in his hand* and we can’t forget, you have these two to keep you company
poseidon: now, i’ve had a long and tiring evening, so i’m going to retire for the night.
*the pufferfish gives a final wiggle and swims out of his hand and then settles in between the two hippocampi*
poseidon: ok, you can all go back to whatever you three were doing-
*the three sea creatures all start to turn to leave*
poseidon: *putting one hand on his hip and raising the other to point at all of them, like he’s talking to children rather than sea creatures*
poseidon: but! try not to get into too much trouble, yes fysallída i am talking to you mostly
*almost ignoring poseidon, they all quickly swim back in the original distance they came from*
poseidon: i swear to zeus, if i wake up to an angry nymph at my palace doors again…
*poseidon claps his hands and the bioluminescent corals dim in response, leaving the reef in darkness again. he then turns to go back inside his palace, and finally head to sleep for the night*
#*amphitrite and poseidon in bed*#amphitrite: so i never asked… how did dinner go#poseidon: did you know odysseus became king when he was thirteen?#amphitrite: *not expecting odysseus lore* uh…no?#amphitrite: why do you know? i wouldn't of expected you to have spoken to him much#poseidon: urgh- blame our niece#poseidon: she thought it would be hilarious to trick the prince into seating us together#amphitrite: *starts laughing*#poseidon: it’s not funny! it was the worst time of my immortal life#amphitrite: worse than when he stabbed you with your own trident?#poseidon: …second worse#amphitrite: *laughs more* so you decided to ask him about the age he became king..during dinner?#poseidon: no that was before… but i also learnt that he- *starts repeating all the odysseus lore he found out*#amphitrite: *sighs to herself accepting that she just doomed herself to another one sided conversation about odysseus*#yes poseidon has pet pufferfish#how did it become his pet? maybe i'll write about that another time... or you guys can decide for yourself#pelagos (pe-la-gos) = sea or open sea#kýma (kee-ma) = wave#fysallída (fee-sa-lee-da) = bubble#poseidon epic#poseidon#amphitrite#epic the musical#epic: the musical#friends in higher places au?#poseidon snippets#nonsense thoughts

Henry!Two Bit almost cutting off Soda’s celebration to say his “I wish it was one of us line” and then the silence that follows is actually sickening and I love it
#bc two bit never was good and filtering himself#and watching the kid who’d come into his house#the kid who he’d patched up hundreds of times#he’s watching that kid lay on a hospital bed and he somehow looks even smaller than he has before#and so two bit can’t help but voice what he knows they’re all thinking#I wish it was one of us#because he does#if he could trade places with Johnny he’d do it in a heartbeat#lord knows Johnny deserves the most#he’s the best of them#him and Ponyboy#they don’t deserve this#the outsiders musical#the outsiders broadway

Do we think odysseus started pranking Athena and her temples at some point? Because I do. He argued that it was good for sneaking and evading training. And you know what Athena couldn't argue that. Her chasing odysseus across the island was good training.
#Odysseus#Athena#Epic the musical#Yes this does go along with my other post about how Athena is with odysseus vs. Telemachus#After the fourth time Athena yanked odysseus from his bed at 3 am to drop him into the depths of shark infested ocean#Odysseus didn't even bother going home or drying off once he swam back to shore#He grabbed multiple buckets and filled them with seaweed and sand and crabs and dumped them in the closest temple#The priests are actively sobbing begging throwing up sacrificing because athenas going to kill them#The locals are preparing for dooms day they're going to be cursed so so badly and it's their kings fault#This just in local 15 year old king was seen dumping sea stuff all over athenas temples muttering see how she likes it#The first time Athena was too stunned to do anything she honestly didn't think anybody has had this much audacity before#To desecrated her temples in just a way how would dare who would even think to do that#Odysseus her chosen human apparently#It is admittedly a little funny how freaked out everybody was...not that she would EVER tell odysseus that#It is also coincidentally FOR NO RELATED REASON SHE SWEARS that she slammes odysseus into the palace wall at full strength for the first ti#After all odysseus it's just training what's there to complain about#I might actually have to write out athenas and odysseus's wacky “training” adventures#Odysseus being a rat bastard

Was reading a fic where Armand and Daniel were asking each other about what the idea of home meant to each of them respectively and while watching this Lower Decks episode set on DS9 with its familiar scenery and score and color palette and Cardassian architecture and camera angles I realized, for a person who lives purportedly in the real world, this fictional space station feels the most like home to me. I've been watching DS9 every year, usually multiple times a year, for most years at least an episode every day, since I was 7 or 8 years old. I'm turning 32 next year. DS9 has been more of a constant, stable presence in my life than anywhere I've ever lived and I'm more attached to the station than to any physical place. That's my portable homeland lol
#I saw DS9 and heard the music on Lower Decks and was like. Yes! That's it! That's my home!!!!!!!#When I want to feel safe in my dreams and ward off nightmares before bed#I imagine myself on DS9 :)
