Just realized that if only Poseidon went straight to Ithaca and asked for Odysseus, Penelope could do the biggest gamble of them all and get one of the suitors in SUCH DEEP SHIT.
Poseidon: "Odysseus of Ithaca! Tell me this instant where is this mortal who dared to hurt my son and try to lie about his name!
Penelope: ...
Suitors: ....
Penelope: *stops weaving*
Penelope: *pointing right at Antonius* There he is! This one is Odysseus, my husband and king of Ithaca! Please don't sink us, almighty god of the sea!
Antonius: What? I'm not Odysseus, I--
Penelope: Of course he would say that! He's a liar!
Poseidon: *has no reason to not believe her, wipes him out effortlessly*
Then Odysseus comes back like "It's me, Penelope! Your husband!"
Penelope: "No, you're not. From now on your name is Agamemnon the Greater and the new lover I marry to make king."
Odysseus: *grumbling* why after Agamemnon though...
AND HOW WOULD POSEIDON EVER KNOW?!

Athena with odysseus: surprise attacking odysseus and bodily slamming him to palace walls (for awareness training). Randomly kidnapping him from the palace to drop him in the woods (or the ocean or on two memorable occasions on a completely different island) (survival training), using her full strength in sparing matches (odysseus has many broken bones) dragging him up by his wrist so they're face to face. Not being careful with how often she uses quick thought or any of her other powers (what? He seems fine. She's sure odysseus has always been a freak it's definitely not brain damage it's/fine/hes /fine)
Athena with telemachus, after she accidentally knocked him out once: right right odysseus and penelope taught me how to do this when they had me babysit you. Gotta be gentle so so gentle. Gotta support the head gotta craddle humans not yank them up by the wrist (she knew odysseus was a freak why didn't he say anything??) Can't just funnel her full power into the kid gotta be so gentle.

Friendly reminder that Annabeth was Percy’s mortal anchor when he bathed in the river Styx, and about a year later is the only thing he remembers about his life.
(🎶my grand plan, is that I will be remembered🎶)

You! Internalize that you do not always need to "improve your art/craft" now! It's great to learn and develop your skills, but you do not need to come from a place of hating where you are now! You certainly do not need to force yourself to improve if it is coming in between you and enjoying the things you do. Improvement for improvements sake does not have to be the only goal, nor the only one that "should matter"
You are allowed to have motifs, enjoyment, ameturism, and "less skill." Kill and devour the capitalist in your head that dictates that you must always improve for everybody else's sake and your "productivity."

This is your reminder that in the very Very VERY early stages of Epic the Musical, Jorge originally planned for the Iliad and the Odyssey to be in one musical together, with the first act being the Iliad and the second being the Odyssey. That was very early on though and was scraped in order to do justice to all the character and the story.

this is an appreciation post for annabeth chase
the girl who held the sky, played a large part in ending the war against Kronos, single handedly retrieved the athena parthenos while unapologetically giving sass to minor and not so minor gods
thank you for teaching us that we aren’t invisible
that we’re loved
and brave and strong
and wise
and worthy of happiness
your impact will never be forgotten

I present to you: Donnie's design from my Future AU (that still does not have a name-)
Okay so a few things I should mention:
It's hard to see these details, but he has a robotic hand and eye (and one of his legs as well)
He is so fucking tall, he is taller than Leo even (but shorter than Raph of course). And yes he does tease Leo about it
He is the second brother to die, but I haven't decided his cause of death yet
There is a lore reason for places on his skin being blue, but it would be spoilers for my Separated AU if I told the reason x.x
This is the same Donnie from my Separated AU, my AU's are connected
EDIT MONTHS LATER LMAO:
Augh okay so actually I updated this recently: He does not die after Raph anymore, now Donnie is the first brother who dies
And the AU has a name now! It's the Genius Built AU
