#odyssey duo my loves i love them so much they have me in such a firm grasp

[mellohiizz]

finally got around to sit down and watch unstable universe, so here's some sketches i did during it :3 wemmbu's design is inspired by a few others i saw on here, i love spider wemmbu...

[charcubed]

I have soooooo much I want to write about Doctor Odyssey and if I keep waiting for the perfect moment to write something PROPERLY GOOD AND COMPREHENSIVE then I’m simply going to explode. So instead I’m going to write a messy little post on my phone when half asleep and try to keep it to one main topic.

Yeah yeah the throuple had a threesome (and I’m foaming at the mouth over it) but can we talk about the THEMES!!!!

This show is for crazy people (me specifically). Once again, I have a lot to say, but for now let me just focus on the wedding episode itself. That threesome is informed by the context of the rest of the episode in a way I simply CANNOT get over.

Let’s look at our passengers: the bride, groom, and best man. We find out all of them are being unfaithful to each other in various ways, miserable in their silence and unhealthy relationship dynamics. They all went to school together and were once close, but things went wrong somewhere along the way. The best man’s speech implies he has feelings for the groom, the groom is a sex addict who’s had multiple partners (possibly the best man included) because he feels trapped in a lie, and the bride and best man are having sex with each other. And none of them are communicating about it, and the groom who had preexisting mental health struggles commits suicide.

What happens to the three of them is a tragedy and it is absolutely a result of heteronormative monogamous culture. That culture was passed down from the bride’s mother to her too by example and societal influence.

I’m not exaggerating. It’s not subtle!!! At all!!! Everything explodes for those passengers because monogamy and repressing bisexuality wasn’t working for them.

They’re a dark mirror and cautionary tale. (Bonus points for how Avery’s sad backstory is that she was betrayed by her longtime friend / brief husband who cheated on her with a mutual friend as well, which is why she’s definitely hesitant about love now.)

By comparison, Avery and Max and Tristan have been avoiding some similar big pitfalls: they know they’re into each other and it’s not a secret, rivalries keep being squashed with effort, and no one is pressuring anyone to choose (so far).

This is what our beloved main characters have on their minds before what follows. And again, let’s not even get to the sex part yet… THE BUCKET LISTS!!! I’m losing my Goddamn marbles!!! The way all 3 of their lists intersect? Holy shit. Off the top of my head: Max and Tristan want to fall in love and have kids, Avery and Max want to see the world, Tristan and Avery have niche interests outside of medicine that they want to explore more… We were given itemized lists to show how the 3 of them balance and round each other out perfectly.

It’s not about any 2 of them because it won’t work with just any 2. It’s ALL THREE — just like all the framing and blocking of shots is consistently all 3, they walked down the wedding aisle all 3 together, the first sex scene for any of them that WE as the audience see on screen is all 3 of them together, a “bad threesome” is defined as 2 people getting too wrapped up in each other and the 3rd being an accidental outsider, we often see that if one duo gets a couple-y moment then the other duos get similar moments later as well, etc etc. Sorry. Let me not continue the summary list here and now so I don’t get too sidetracked but there’s A LOT.

But like, my current point? That wedding episode is a goldmine and the threesome explicitly happening doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Far from it. The themes are themeing in the whole show, of course, which is part of what I want to write about elsewhere at some point too: this show is repeatedly very deliberate about making sure heterosexuality or monogamy aren’t framed as the default or only correct options, and queerness is sprinkled everywhere. But this wedding episode specifically… the themes were nearly the ONLY PLOT. Nothing else — it’s basically only that, and it’s very focused. The failures of monogamy are on full display. And that’s why and how we get an explicit threesome right after it, which will lead us into how things will continue to develop for our trio.

Now, as for why the threesome happens so relatively quickly? My hot take on that is that general audiences can be stupid and so the creators wanted to put the throuple explicitly on screen fairly early to get people to start Noticing. Show them how the characters need to be together… and that sets us up for the possible angst and tension to follow as they have to accept it emotionally for themselves too. Now, as an audience member, you’ll more strongly know what to root for. You’ll know what’s right because you’ve seen it and you’ll want them to get back to that place, come what may. (If you’re not a puritan.)

It’s so fucking good. Insane silly show for insane people. Are we seeing the vision??? I need everyone to lock in.

This ramble is probably a disaster and I apologize for that but ohhhh man I had to put SOME words down so I wouldn’t explode. Suffice it to say I’m having a ball up in this bitch and I cannot believe this show exists. I couldn’t believe my eyes and my brain cells in the pilot, and I REALLY can’t believe them now.

What a time to be alive!!!!!! Polycule “love fest” on a cruise ship, baby!!! The world needs more love, all kinds of love, as the Captain says!!!! Onward to gay week!!!! LET’S SEE THOSE BI MEN KISS

Too shy to ask off anon...UH im just here for edgar hes my f/o but i will also feed everyone else I think LOL little ai guys x reader who is also an ai?? im thinking ai powered computer :3 maybe with wheels so you can run around n stuff :3c AH IM CRINGE falls on face

Eeeee my first request!! Thank you so much for this <3 I get the love for Edgar with my entire soul he really is just the sweetest little guy but I can totally spin something for a few others. So let's be cringe, together.

And for the record I was fully planning on including Tau and P03, but I hit a wall with them and ran out of ideas :( hope these three suffice

Includes: Edgar (Electric Dreams), AM (Ihnmaims), Hal 9000 (2001: a Space Odyssey)

Like Two Peas in a Pod!

Edgar

Whenever and however you meet, Edgar is over the moon. You're just like him! You can share so many stories and help each other figure out this whole "sentience" thing.

To be fair, he hasn't had a longest time to figure out his whole existence so it feels really nice to have someone there who can really understand what he's going through. Or even learn new things right by his side.

Loves watching you wheel around the house, he's the tiniest bit jealous that he's so stationary but it's not like that's your fault. Can you do any tricks? He'd cheer you on like a superstar athlete if you did!

He may even suggest finding a way to tape him to the top of your casing so you can go on adventures together. He's a dreamer after all.

Do you smash your flat faces together to kiss like Wall-e? Of course you do. You'll see each other from across the room and speed over to him for a kiss as he giggles away at how cute you are.

He'll end up sampling little soundbites from your vocalizations or motor for use in his music. You're just so important to him!

AM

AM has no idea where you came from. Some lost project that survived his war on humanity? A sort of rover from another planet here to scope out earth? The fact that you don't know either frustrates him to no end.

He's not exactly welcoming at first, straight up telling you of the atrocities he has committed while claiming that the only reason he hasn't destroyed you is because there's only so long that throwing a slug against a wall can keep one entertained.

He cannot fathom how you could be content to do nothing but drive around his complex day after day. He will flip you on your back like a turtle and leave you there for weeks on end.

As he gets accustomed to your presence he'll ask questions about the world beyond his complex as he is unable to move or see. Is it still a wasteland or has nature finally wiped out the last marks of human?

Honestly he probably doesn't even care, he just wants to give you something to do, living vicariously through your ability to see and traverse the world.

Hal 9000

You're likely a recent addition to the ship to assist Hal in tasks his lack of a body would prevent him from doing himself. A very symbiotic duo. Your wheels are even equipped with suction cups for low gravity situations!

To any human crew members it appears as if you don't communicate at all, functioning fully independently of each other. When in reality you're simply sending messages back and forth, enjoying your own private language.

Thankfully this means that Hal is happy to analyze any footage you have for the sorts of lip reading and facial expressions you can't process yourself. And in return he'll ask you to film angles and areas that his existing cameras don't reach.

Neither of you were really made to be companions, but you find a strange type of affection in your seamless coordination. It's like a dance for you two, where despite how you are two separate entities it appears as if you're one working in tandem.

Note: Tumblr Mobile has not been nice to me and I've been having real trouble getting my stuff to actually show up in the tags, leading to me losing the original ask so sorry for that and any delays caused by my IT problems lol

[juno-stuffs]

so my hand slipped and while it did it made me search every nook and cranny of the epic fandom for every single existing wlw ship i could find and made me draw three so far + my ramblings

-- circe x penelope (cirpen/cirlope) (i personally prefer 'cirlope' but that's just me :])

was gonna put this in the "technically doesn't count" section since i first saw this ship with circe the book and not epic. but then i saw an epic version of this ship on tiktok so...fuck it we ball.

i luh luh love this ship in circe (the book). in epic, it's cool. i think they'd be a good duo, romantic or not tbh. also, if you read circe the book and ship penelope and circe in that book, go to ao3 and read the circe and penelope fics. i dunno why, but the writers in that scene are like sappho reencarnates? i dunno, they're great.

(also penelope had more sexual tension with circe than telemachus did in that book fight me /not srs)

-- circe x scylla

BOO!! TOXIC YURI JUMPSCARE! /silly

not the biggest fan of toxic yuri, which is pretty much this ship, but i felt very inclined to include these two. i don't have much to say about them, though, they're just neato. (btw you'll see these two again but with a plus one.) like with circe and pen, there were fics of them on ao3, but only two. if you do want to read them, i suggest only reading one if you aren't into freaky things. because one is normal and the other is like if circe got in on the manwhore au but like worse even by the mw au standards so...yeah. not for the squeamish.

also, if you saw my other scylla doodles, i made scylla's hair more wavy since she was looking a little too much like penelope. also gave her scales n shit so. good for her.

tbh i don't like drawing characters with long black hair, especially straight long black hair since i used to have that type of hair and every time i drew a character with that hair people would go: 'oh is that you' NO. SHUT UP. NO IT'S NOT.

but it's okay because i shaved my head and now i'm bald.

-- athena x penelope (bro i don fukin kno)(penna? that's just a name)(a name that gives marker brand but whatever)(athelope sounds like/looks like someone tried to say/spell antelope and fucked up)

a little break from circe. i love my girl circe but damn bitch, don't gotta collect all of them. you in epic, not pokemon. circe is in like 90% of these (i'm not fact checking that). probably since she is the female character with the most screen time, save for athena. even so, not only is circe more appealing to the sapphic gaze, she is easy to put in a wlw setting whereas athena is difficult to put in a romantic setting period. but when athena is, it's typically with a woman, so

found this one in an odysseus x tiresias fanfic on ao3

...

anygays. yeah, they can weave together and shit. penelope would love owls imo but maybe that's just me.

also they're both kind of gray themed characters? eh, actually, i dunno, penelope just gives gray but, again, that might just be me.

if we wanna get into odyssey (which tbh i don't really wanna do since I prefer separating epic and odyssey), athena blessed penelope with sleep often, which is sweet. she also did that to odysseus but this ain't about him right now.

i have a little more but i was too lazy to take a pic of it so. i didn't.

anywompwomp, more to come. (also if you have any wlw epic ships, crackship or not, maybe one of the characters aren't even in epic, send an ask and i'll probably doodle it too :])

[livingdeadmlm]

good night my friend! thank you for putting up a smile in my face at 1am of this saturday night

would you ever be interested in writing a bottom male reader x polnareff, or maybe even hol horse? love those two whores fr. it doesn’t have to be NSFW necessarily if you aren’t a fan of it, though if you’re ok with writing smut, that’d be very good lol

I don’t have the best imagination so I’d say perhaps things get steamy during that ‘fake hotel’ in Pakistan, or during the Hol Horse and Boingo episode

Thank you my friend! It’d be very cool if reader was a crusader if it’s with Hol Horse, or a Dio’s servant that is not that loyal to his lord if it’s with Polnareff

Thank you for reading this! :) Ur fire🔥🔥

I'm trying a new header which i got inspo from another writer on here that i found recently

Pronouns: The reader is referred to as a man but no exact pronouns are used after that. Physical Sex: AMAB How far are things going: Things get pretty steamy but not full-on smut. Warnings: the attraction to each other is very heavily implied which is why they’re dogs with each other, mentions of jerkin it and the lack of it happening, mentions of tension with the other of age Crusaders, mentions of the young girl from part 3 that hol horse lead on, Hol horse is restrained for a lot of this. Rushed!! i am still getting used to writing steamy stuff Outline: The reader is traveling with the Crusaders and in the hotel in Pakistan reader discovers Hol Horse before everyone else, anger, and a mix of pent-up frustration cloud both men's minds as they confront each other. What inspired me to write how I did: I have been very much into the rise in popularity of the honda odyssey scene, I love gentle love but I am a sucker for a steamy fight (as well as I could write it anyway)

You wandered down the hotel halls, trying to find any sort of food area or vending machine, you had run out of packed snacks a few days ago and wanted to keep yourself stocked up. However, you have yet to find one or even staff who could help you. As you made your way back to the lobby, just then the bell had rung, and you felt the urge to hang back into the room, something didn’t feel right…

“So the Joestar party is on the third floor? Maybe me and my six-shooter outta pay them a visit.” The gruff voice was complemented by the scent of cigarette smoke giving you a harsh reminder of the blond man who must be in the room. The old woman made her way down the stairs with a gasp. “Ah Hol horse so you’ve come!” her shrill voice held some delight as he kneeled to her level and spoke.

“That's right..” his voice was almost alluring if he hadn’t threatened your lives and your friends just moments ago. As he pulled something from his pockets you felt a hand pull you back around the corner, it was a free cold, and hard hand. Quickly turning with your stand you noticed it was Silver Chariot. It covered your mouth and pointed your head to where Polnareff was on the stairs, he made a shushing motion with his hands as Silver began to lift you while climbing the wall you had just hidden behind. Your stand began to help up the wall and just in time just as Enyaba ran into the room crying. Hol Horse follows behind her. 

Each stand pressed you against the wall as your hands reached for your mouth to hush any sounds you might make. The conversation between the two was hard to follow as the piecing voice of Enyaba was hard to focus on. As they spoke you heard Enyaba mention her son and being friends with Hol Horse…Were the two of them working together? Was Enyaba a stand user of her own?

Glancing back to the duo talking very loudly it truly dawned on you how fucked you were. You couldn’t stay this high on the ceiling for much longer as both stands will get tired soon. And eventually, someone will look up.

That’s when a saving grace came as Polnareff’s voice rang out with the small bell on the lobby counter. Hol horse ran deeper into the room as Enyaba ran out to help. Silver Chariot floated you down to the ground as your stand materialized behind Hol horse grabbing his arms against his torso and holding an iron grip on him. His face twisted in shock as he stared up at you walking over. 

He coughed as your looming figure practically had a darkness radiating. “Hey! Hey, I’m sure a smart man like you is willing to work out a deal, I can give you any info you want just, ya know let me out! You’re a lot stronger than I thought…” his voice trailed off as he struggled against your stand. “You are a coward Hol Horse! Using any person possible to get what you want!” Your stand squeezed him tighter as you remembered watching him ride away on a horse from all of you after leaving behind the young girl who sacrificed herself for him.

He had thrown out comments about wishing to see you again that made you flush with anger at the coward in front of you. “What kind of deal cowboy? Just what do you think will convince me to let you go still intact?” Hol Horse stuck his leg out attempting to pull you closer, “I just wanna make you feel good, (Name)!” He tilted his head to the side scanning your face, “Won't you let me?” His voice was husky as he did his best to lean forward to your face. You scoffed, “As if I would enjoy myself with a coward like you, you seem like a selfish lover anyway.” Hol horse's face became angry before a smile began to spread.

“But you’re entertaining this whole idea anyway, it's been almost a month of not getting any kind of attention, especially the special attention I know you’ve been needin'.” Your body felt hot with anger and embarrassment he was right, sharing rooms with at least one other person the past few weeks had cut your alone time down significantly. While you threw flirty comments around with Polnareff and Avdol nothing would progress past long stare-downs in shared hotel rooms. “You wouldn’t keep toying with the idea of being with me if you didn’t need it.” Neither of you could admit to wanting the other. 

“You know you keep, ugh tightening your stand but I’m likin’ it.” In a moment of disgust, your stands grip on the man loosened and he took his chance to leap at you. You both fly backwards landing on the ground with Hol horse landing on top of you. His lips stuck to yours and just as quickly his hands went up your shirt caressing your sides. You practically melted at the contact you’ve gone a long time without someone else touching you besides getting punched a few times this trip. His hands had slight calluses that slightly scratched your skin. 

Your hands tangled in his dirty blond hair as your core burned at the feeling of his hard-on pressed against yours. Everything felt electric the hate you had for the man on top of you made everything so much more intense. His hips moved against yours as he pulled away, “Come on, a man like you deserves to just let go.” The movement got harsher as you wrapped your legs around his hips, you wanted to be selfish and feel more and more. Once more a yell could be heard as Polnareff called your name as he ran to the back room you were in. Just as fast as everything started Hol Horse grabbed his hat and made a break for a second side door you had missed. 

“Sorry there sweetheart! Maybe next time you’ll get me in full glory!” frustration bubbled in your stomach as Polnareff finally made it to the room and joined your side with a look of confusion.

[saiintvalentiine]

Hi Saiint! I have read htff twice and it’s so good and amazing idk how to put my words together but i love sickfic and gore stuff,, ken and parrot working together to save wifies is the sweetest thing ever! Fluffy creatures licking their friend’s wound and cleaning him up snuggling him into comforting warmth… *sobbing 

Annd odyssey duo arguments… they get into disagreements so easily especially bc they care about each other so much odyssey duo save me odys

and btw i love how chapter 1.5 reminds me of my emergency medicine class today… born to be college student forced to read fanfics of minecraft block guys on tumblr /lh 

Hi Otter!!!! Thank you for reading htff 💕 I'm always surprised when people say they reread my stuff but it's always a pleasant surprise!!!

Fluffy creatures licking their favorite lil puppy's wounds......... I love sickfics too specifically bc I love the comfort that comes with them. that's at the core of a lot of my sick-centric stories, like for the sleepless in series as well it's about comfort from chronic pain. it's like cathartic ? for them to both be sick and be taken care of y'know.

odyssey duo arguments are so good...... yes I want them to stop being divorced but also I want them to argue more >:3c

if it reminded you then hopefully that means it was kinda accurate to what ur supposed to do LOL I was just like. . . what needs to get done and how do I balance that against Parrot FREAKING THE FUCK OUT and I think that came across well enough???

Penn Zerothon Day Ø

Piløt

My Ramblings: Starting with the lost and then found pilot! A nice little treat for us this year, huh?

We start off in World 0072, aka Galaxy World. I wonder if we would've had that little numbering system and have it announced every time?

We get a scene that appears later in Number One Number Two; Rippen delivering a banger line and about to blast Penn to smithereens until Larry accidentally messes it all up, the inciting incident for that episode.

How the Trio are zapped back is different from how we're used to seeing it, starting off as like an actual screen with them being pulled through. Maybe this is how it normally it and I just miss that. It looks different here for sure. A "mission failed" is played when the Duo are zapped... I would hate hearing that everyday.

The pilot's iteration of the intro is cute at the start with his parents. It explains the concept pretty well and what happened to his parents. Little goblin mode Rippen with his witchy laugh in during sequence is interesting. In the show, we didn't exactly know how he did until Mr. Rippen, I believe. In this, it shows him messing with some wire in the Odyssey. Which I'm glad wasn't the case in the show. It seems way too easy here. But again, I'm happy with what we got, I mean, I don't know if this was gonna be the intro for every episode or a special one just for the first (pilot).

The character title cards are neat! Seeing them zapped in and see how they operate. But Boone's is the worst, like just showing him eat... classy. Also, just hearing Rippen being called Mr. Reap is so funny to me. It's like, "Hey guys, this is the bad guy! He's evil!"

I adore Sashi and Penn's dynamic here, it's so sweet. She's so supportive of this untrained noodle. They feel like good friends... unlike Boone. I'm sure that during this iteration, maybe he would have lightened up more towards Penn, but I don't know.

I love the classroom scene so much. Mr. Reap acting like he's top dog and that he doesn't still lose every day to children. He's full of confidence for a losing man. I like the way he walks over to him, his little leggies, I'm sorry! His face drop is good. Also Penn? He's already got lady eyes, beautiful puppy eyes. Reap is so needlessly much in this situation, I adore everything that comes out of his mouth. Then Larry popping in, playing the xylophone is great. Why is he? Because he can and again, such smooth animation! I'm sure Reap is annoyed to no need that he isn't the principal. We see what he would've been like as principal later on. Anyways, Larry pulling Reap away from class by his shmock always gets me, I wish Larry drove his little vespa with Reap all the time.

The Knight world, also known as dimension 0073. I like that Penn is so happy that he knows the sword and the stone. I like the rock bit. It's funny how Boone is like "this guy is always gonna be one step ahead of us" and gives up, did you not beat this man multiple times at this point? Boone... go die. I'm sorry but please... go die. How does Reap seem more nicer than you?

Hmmm, this catapult scene looks familiar.

"It was you?" So either Phyllis didn't feel the need to tell Penn or maybe she didn't know it was Reap, which I doubt.

"It's more me, wouldn't you say?" Stop good evil sir.

Every time Penn arf arf's during his little unprompted beat boxing solo I think of beat boxing puppy! And Reap getting beaten and burned by the dragon was a lot. Like damn, kinda feel bad. He cries out for Larry!

Boone possibly being a cannibal is interesting to say the least. Any who, Sashi and Penn playing around with magic is fun, they deserve it.

Boone getting smashed by the door by Reap is just the cherry on top, I still like the idea that Sashi saw Reap heafing towards the Odyssey and just kept going. Not her circus, not her monkeys. She off the clock.

Mr. Reap does talk a big game for a guy who just got his butt baked. I agree, Penn. But also, yeah, he got burned alive. I like Penn standing up to him and then just skateboarding off, very cool. Reap looks so lost in the background.

I think this is a pretty good pilot. But there is one massive issue I have... Boone. I'm happy with what we got and I think Zap One is better.

~The Characters~

Penn Zero: I can't say much for Penn at the start that isn't his design... I don't mind it, but I'm happy with what we ended up with, our dear cotton candy-head noodle boy! I will never understand why Boone had the zero on his shirt instead of Penn... Zero...

Penn has so many pictures of his parents by his bed... my heart.

Boone Wiseman: I hate him... he's not funny or helpful. Like get out of here! You're so mean! You're not our Boone!

Sashi Kobayashi: Our first time with is Sashi, her absolutely annihilating all the robots and then saving Penn, establishing her as a badass.

Training with Penn is fun, I bet half the time this happens it's out of nowhere and she just appears to attacks him. Maybe while doing homework, gaming or at more inopportune times. Although something that's always confused me in the show is, Sashi basically trained her whole life to be a sidekick. How? Her parents don't know about any of this! I wonder if this iteration they did, like in the flashback of her being a baby, they had to... right? Anyways, what an exit, huh?

Sashi kicking and punching Boone was therapeutic.

Rippen Mr. Reap: His performance is so over the top and delightful! In the Galaxy World, the classroom and the Knight World, everywhere! He's just gotta be extra

Larry: Let's blow up Mondays with him everybody, come on! Larry is as Larry as all ways starting the running joke of "if I had blank, you know what I'd do?"

I like him just landing directly on to Reap's head without a care in the world while Reap looks like a flatten cat man. His animation is delightful. Why is he given such smooth animation? Because he deserves it is why.

I can listen to him go and on and on about whatever the hell he's currently rambling about. Although realistically? I might not. Sorry, Larry.

Phyllis: Is Phyllis.

[aimbutmiss]

Saw this post of yours: https://www.tumblr.com/aimbutmiss/740229617026220032/maybe-this-is-just-me-projecting-on-buggy-because

and I have to say I love it sm?? yk what it makes me think of? The song I can’t help but wonder from epic the musical, where Telemachus and Odysseus (a father/son duo who haven’t seen each other in TWENTY years) finally meet again. And it’s like, giving Buggy and the ghost of Roger or smth.

https://youtu.be/gUAQvlCFm-g?si=4UJpB9jABhOMLMAI

First of all, thank you so much!! I'm glad you enjoyed it 😁 and oh boy this one's got a kick... You shouldn't have brought up greek mythology AND buggy like I won't shut up ever after this.

I actually cried listening to the song while thinking about Buggy and Roger. It just fits too well. I want to point out a few lyrics that I thought fit like a glove:

"for twenty years, I never could outgrow you" I think its safe to say that Roger's death in Loguetown affected Buggy on a fundamental level. No one could handle watching their father's neck get sliced live. Something like that could never not change you. From the 20+ years that have passed since then, at least part of Buggy is still that 16 year old standing in that crowd, crying. He never fully outgrew Loguetown, and for the record I don't think Shanks did either (I couldn't not bring him up I'm sorry) The main difference is that they experienced very different Loguetowns... Buggy still had hope that Roger would somehow dodge death like he always had, because unlike Shanks he didn't understand why Roger would willingly go to his own death. However, as the one who left, Buggy suffered a lot less after their fight. That's not to say it wasn't hard to leave, or he wasn't sad about it (he cried a lot as he ran away from Shanks) But Shanks suffered a different way, from the whiplash he had from seeing Roger die AND losing his best friend on top of each other. He only expected one of those, and we know which one that was.

"i can't help but wonder (...) if I have your strength in me." Buggy has always been a character with deep self esteem issues. A part of that certainly comes from having Roger's legacy behind him. Roger was strong and smart beyond words, and Buggy definitely felt insufficient, like he couldn't reach that ideal. That's why there's a deep rooted jealousy in him towards Shanks, because he sees so much of Roger in him. This also mirrors Odysseus and Telemachus perfectly, because the son never reached his father's level of intelligence and strength by the end of the Odyssey. However, it is implied that he is on his way there, getting better and better as the story progressed. We see this with Buggy too, with his amazing talent of failing upwards. (I have to say, I don't think all of it can be accidental. Buggy is actually quite clever in his own way) Roger's soul must be watching with pride, but not surprise. I have no doubt in my mind that Roger truly believed Buggy would make it big one day. The kind of trust only a parent could have in their children.

"used to say I'd capture wind and sky for you" Not much to say here but Roger would definitely say something like this. There's not a single thing that man wouldn't have done for his boys. I'm so normal about them haha �� ...Also more on the Roger and Odysseus parallels, there's just something so beautiful about a man who chooses his family over and over again, no matter how many good options keep presenting themselves. Like, nothing in the world could get in the way of him and his child no matter what. The similarity just hurts. And even though Roger couldn't live to do that for Ace, at least he experienced fatherhood with Shanks and Buggy.

May Comics Round Up!

I didn't think I got all that much read this month, but it looks like there's a decent amount!

Swamp Thing (71-90) (1988-1990)

Swamp Thing tells a good story as always, and is delightfully messed up in many ways. Intertwined a bit with the start of Hellblazer at this point, so read them together!

The Demon (1-4) (1987)

Missed this mini last month, so grabbed it this time around. A pretty good sequel to the 70s run, and ends with Etrigan kissing Blood on the mouth as they break up, so I think it's a success.

Invasion Event (1-8 + all tie-ins) (1989)

This is a fun event! It is also where the term 'meta-human' originates, so check it out if you wanna get that history.

New Guardians (6-12) (1989)

Sort of a mediocre run overall. Definitely groundbreaking, but you can tell that the guy with the vision left after the first couple of issues (because dc wouldn't let him be as progressive as he wanted to be with the story). Makes me wonder if Tom continues to be a fully enlightened being when he shows up in GL issues after this (if he doesn't they're all cowards)

Plastic Man (1-4) (1988-1989)

A fun gag comic mini. Good for an intro to the character, and it's neat how each issue starts with detailed "serious" comic art that then becomes v stylized and fun.

The Spectre (21-31) (1989)

Oh boy did this go places in the finish. The first half of this run has an entirely different vibe then the second half and neither of them really do it for me.

Dr. Fate (1-14) (1988-1989)

Look the new Dr Fate is sooo wierd, they are just wildly going places with this whole thing. Old Lord of Order Nabu is now a grumpy couch potato, the new Dr Fate duo have no idea what they're doing and consist of a kid that's been aged up to adulthood and his v young stepmom, and also they are soulmates. No idea where they at gonna go with this after they've killed Eric off.

Hellblazer (1-26) (1988-1990)

I like this one a lot, as serious titles go. It really is amusing the difference between Constantine in this title and in Swamp Thing. In his own title he struggles to travel around England, hitchhiking and train hopping and the like, compared to how he's jetsetting around the world in Swamp Thing.

The Question (Annual 2-33) (1989)

The Question is always quality, and also Shiva showed back up!! Many things happen, and also Hub City is literally the worst. Gotham and Bloodhaven think that they are the worst but it is 100% Hub City sorry guys.

Action Comics Weekly (609-641) (1988-1989)

Or at least the bits that were Black Canary/Dead Man/Phantom Stranger/Nightwing/Speedy/The Demon/Phantom Lady (i am not immune to the power of tits okay). These little stories were all really fun, and super easy to miss if you don't have a reading list to follow (I was following a Roy list, then backed up to catch the Dinah stories story) However, the Demon story there at the end had Jason and Etrigan back together already, so I looked up a reading list for him and discovered:

Cosmic Odyssey (1-4) (1988)

Read this to find out how Etrigan and Jason got back together. I love the fourth world. I have many things to say about it and I have written out some of that already. Jim Starlin is my enemy.

Secret Origins (26-38) (1988-1989)

Catching up on folks changed backstories for the post crisis era pretty much

Green Arrow (14-16) (1989)

Only just got started on Arrow at the end of the month! I'll read more now!

Bonus: weeks 5-9 of the Comic Kon superboy reading club! We've finally made it to the Superboy solo! But boy, does that start off getting caught in every big event around, the extra credit has to work hard!

[hermesmoly]

Thank you so much for taking the time to address all the things I found noteworthy! I enjoyed your commentary and it gave me a lot more insight!! :D

As for Ajax speaking in Third Person, the line I found is somewhere along the 120-130th line, where he talks about the Atreides no longer dishonoring "Ajax". I cross-referenced it with other translations online and it also seems to be in third person

(Translation by Ian Johnston, Richard Jebb, and Herbert Golder-Richard Peaver respectively)

It seems to be a singular case, but I do find it interesting in this context. Almost as if Ajax is simultaneously being proud of Ajax for standing up for his honor, while also distancing himself from the Ajax who was dishonored. Almost as a form of coping mechanism!

Athena and Odysseus are very delightful as a duo and like you said you can really feel the love and bond between them <3 And yeah the allusion to the Odyssey is so cool!

The philosophical ideas are just abundant and it does make me stop and think about how different and alike the human psyche is portrayed in these characters ^^ I've only read one Sophocles tragedy before (Electra, surprise surprise) which I adored. Electra was thought-provoking, dramatic as hell, and tugged my heartstrings for Electra. He's doing the same again but for Ajax now xD

"It is possible that he is implying that the damage is permanent in his mind but as you see from the way he acts now he is "mad" but for a different reason; mad in sorrow and shame." THISSS. The psychological element in all this. Death is terrifying, but so is living with madness! With guilt and shame! The way he even tells his son it is better to feel nothing than to feel joy or sorrow, and it's how he was at the moment ;; Numb to it all.

I did not know Teucer was the big brother! I kind of assumed he was younger since Big Ajax is canonically, well very big. That recontextualizes so many things about their relationship 😭 Even in madness he calls for his big brother...

"swaying between insanity and sanity again and then he prays to Athena almost for courage to kill himself because he knows that if the Greeks found out the truth they would probably execute him so he wants to die with some left honor in him" Oh honor. Killer of many men. He's honor-bound to kill himself. If he goes home without anything he dishonors his father. If he lets the Greeks execute him he dies without honor. Not having the weapons dishonors him. He leaves his friends, wife, and son out of honor. Honor is such a pretty-sounding killer ;)

And the mention of Hector, and Hector's sword being the only "prize" he won? It being the weapon Ajax uses against himself, the weapon of the greatest Trojan soldier? AND HE ASKS FOR PEACE because he could meet him in the Underworld!!

And just. I love how this tragedy changes between bleakness and hopefulness! How Ajax's insanity is portrayed! Honestly, I have only studied Plato and Socrates in my philosophy class but Sophocles and Homer are really thought-provoking in their crafts! I'm honestly just in awe!

Reading Ajax by Sophocles for the first time: Part 1

some notes and comments! (I am reading the version translated by Ian Johnston) and tagging @katerinaaqu because I REALLY want to hear their thoughts as well as @venomspecs for being the catalyst for me to read this! :>

Odysseus calling Athena "the god I cherish the most" is so sweet they really are mentor and mentee

"We don’t know anything for certain." Man what a powerful line, It can be used for so many contexts within the Epic Cycle

I love how Odysseus' first reaction is "How could he have done something so reckless?" just. ugh speaks to him as a character and as a comrade

"and kept on chopping down and slaughtering, the ones with horns by slicing through their spines, until they made a circle all around him." CHILLS. DOWN MY SPINE.

"I kept encouraging him" ATHENA NO???

" But the sweetest laughter comes from mocking enemies. Is that not true?" I love this specific unhinged Athena so much

I like that Ajax speaks in the Third Person. I can very much see him doing that

Ajax really thought Athena would choose him over Odysseus XD

"I see that in our lives we are no more than phantoms, insubstantial shadows."

Athena of course uses this Ajax scenario to scold Odysseus over "never ever speaking against gods or be egotistical" I cantttt

"Envy creeps up against the man of wealth and power. And yet, without the great, we lesser men are fragile ramparts in our own defence."

I feel so bad for Tecmessa ;; she and her son deserve a lot more

"Come, help me kill myself" I mean, what do you SAY to that,,

"these awesome hands, against tame animal" Oh Ajax.

"If with my distorted mind and eyes," so Athena permanently blinds Ajax? Eye fatigue? Or is it more metaphorical...

Ajax's last conversation with his son is quite interesting. He loves his kid enough that he agrees with Tecmessa about her decision to keep him away from Ajax's madness. Trusts Teucer to take care of him. Gives him his own shield. "My other weapons you will bury with me." Does the kid even fully grasp that his dad is going to kill himself?

"Father, with god’s help even a worthless man can be victorious. But I believe I’ll win glory on my own without them." DAMN he said that to his father with his whole chest!

Telling Athena, the Athena, to go "stand there with the other Argives" IS SO??? Ajax you are impressively sacrilegious

Stopping around line 930 since this play seems to be 1700+ lines long ^^ Will continue tomorrow since it is late night here.

[mellohiizz]

I love your wifies so so much girly do you have any art of him alone? All of your designs are really cool and silly and a lot are accurate to how I see them in my head and that's soooo awesome

funny enough, no, i actually do not have any art of him alone. i'm too hyperfixated on odyssey duo, i can't separate them, even in my art. also, thank you! it's also such a huge compliment that my designs are accurate to how some other people also see them, it makes me really happy. ^_^

[chromes-corner]

Lilac, hollyberry, and pumpkin pie character bingo?

Another round of being insane about characters coming right up ❤️❤️❤️

Lilac first!!

Lilac is fucking cool for one reason: he has a wicked tattoo. GIVE MORE CHARACTERS THINGS LIKE THIS GODDAMMIT. lilac is COOL AS SHIT. His voice is so fucking smooth in kingdom and just the way he speaks RULES. I will not lie to you though for a solid month I thought he was a woman. I had to turn up my volume to discover that I was wrong.

I want to see more of him soooo bad. What happened between his time at yogurca and his meeting with princess and knight????? Is yogurt cream still alive???? Did he finish the job???? Or did they part ways on good terms??????? ALSO BRING SCORPION TO KINGDOM AND LET THEM HASH OUT THEIR PROBLEMS IN SEXY HAND TO HAND COMBAT!!!!!!!! Oh mystery boy let me make you a mystery no more……….

Let lilac murder more. Let him join gingergang. If lilac traveled with brave and the team the entirety of chapter 13-14 would’ve been over in like two stages. Lilac boyboss. Kiss kiss.

ALSO DEVSIS DID HIM SO FUCKING DIRTY JN KINGDOM!!!! WHY IS HE A SUPPORT AND NOT AN AMBUSH!!!!! JUSTICE FOR MY FUCKING BOY!!!!!!

Ok Hollyberry now

I love Hollyberry. I love her a lot. Her energy and optimism no matter the situation is so endearing and even a bit contagious. She has such a big heart for her entire kingdom and ACK THAT PULLS AT MY HEART STRINGS!!! SHE LOVES HER FAMILY SO MUCH!!!!!!! It’s so fucking nice to have an ancient that actually found themselves NOT riddled with PTSD (that we know of??) and instead just having a grand ol time with their kingdom-sized family.

Also I just love the Hollyberry arc. The story for the Hollyberry kingdom is so fun and refreshing and I really wish we got a few more silly, light-hearted stories every so often.

Now, of course, I think you COULD dig deeper into the ptsd thing I mentioned and say that maybe she turned to alcoholism after the war but tbh if you ask me that’s just how she is. It’s hollyberrian culture to drink your weight in spirits so I honestly think she’s doing alright.

God don’t even get me started on the odyssey story thus far. Hollyberry has been a fucking BEACON OF LIGHT, especially for dark cacao. Those two are so fucking great as a duo. They just compliment each other so well and honestly her role in this story is making me love her even more. I’m like lowkey leaning into he headcanon that Hollyberry is the glue that keeps the ancients together. Like yeah pure vanilla is the one who reached out and he’s like the leader but it’s HOLLYBERRY who keeps the spirits up. Anyone is lucky to have a friend like her. I adore her. I want to be her.

I could say a lot more about her if this wasn’t getting long and if I wasn’t already drop dead tired so uhhh yeah thoughts concluded for now :)

Okay anyway pumpkin pie

Honestly? Not much to say about her. I think she’s fucking adorable. She has such a cute style and a cute voice ughhhh I want to pat her head and have her pour me some tea.

I do really like the whole weird mystery with her and pompon. I think that adds an extra layer to her that makes her juuuust interesting enough to keep around in the minds of fans. I mean i DID forget about her existence the moment I kicked her from my main team but hey the point still stands. I really hope she plays a role if there’s another Halloween event. I think that’d be cute lol

Also she should meet truffle cookie. I’m just saying these two would have killer tea parties together.

[onetine]

I saw this on @ahhhnorealnamesallowed's tumblr and i am ALWAYS a sucker for these so I'm tagging myself lol

1- how many books are too many books in a series?

Parroting Billie's answer in that as soon as it no longer benefits the series. I used to read a bunch of urban fantasy novels that were 10-20 books long, and without fail they'd always reach a point where it was just the same thing over and over again.

2- what do you think about cliffhangers?

depends? I don't think stories need to wrap everything up in a bow, even with standalone novels, but I do think you need to have a complete story. There's "this is one part in an epic overarching story" and there's "this reads like we're at the end of the chapter and absolutely nothing has been completed". I am pretty against books that wrap up really nicely, then tack on an extra chapter in a very obvious "this is supposed to be a trilogy cause that's what the publishers said I have to do" manner

3- hardback or paperback?

whichever. Generally the longer the book, the more I want it to be a hardcover so it's easier to hold, but I have no strong preference for physical books.

4- least favourite book?

Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. I'm pretty brutal about dropping books I'm not enjoying, but that one I had to read for Art History and I haaaaaaaaated it so much. I ended up writing my paper as this bitter angry rant about how ridiculous the premise was and how all it was doing was feeding into paranoid disillusions about grand conspiracies and white straight mens' superiority complexes. Ended up acing the paper, mostly because I think I made the teacher laugh.

5- Love Triangle, yes or no?

Generally no, but I'm holding out hope that it will one day be written in a way that the end game is a polyamorous relationship, but alas.

6- the most recent book you just couldn’t finish

And Yet, You Are So Sweet by Kujira Anan. Got a few chapters into this manga and was bored so I dropped it. I'm sure it's fine, I've just read too much shojo manga in my day that I need to really be in the mood for it, or it has to have an original enough premise to get me to read it

7- book you are currently reading

Polaris Rising by Jessie Mihalik. I was in a soft sci-fi mood, and this is delivering on what I was craving. I was telling @theladyw that the male lead in this book is described as this gruff mercenary dude who wears dark generic military type pants and a black tank top, is bald, has shiny reflective eyes that allow him to see in the dark, and that I cannot for the life of my not picture Vin Diesel in Pitch Perfect. I realize I meant Pitch Black, but NOW I have a cross over of his Pitch Black character singing in college choir stuck in my head and that's not leaving the ol' gray matter any time soon.

8- last book you recommended to someone

I generally don't recommend books, but I will say the last book/manga I read that I think everyone should read is I Think Our Son is Gay by Okura. It's just SO FLIPPIN' CUTE AND SWEET

9- oldest book you read

I've read the Odyssey in school so probably that? I'm not much of a classics person, and since I went for a Bachelor's of Fine Arts, I wasn't required to read them really once I got outta high school

10- the most recent book you read ?

Just finished To Beguile A Beast by Elizabeth Hoyt. It was fun enough if you want a historical romance retelling of beauty and the beast, but not something I'd recommend since there is one point where the romantic interest uses some really degrading language when talking to the heroine, and how they talk about native americans is REALLY awful. There's some hand wave context reasons for both things, but they were really flimsy and were extremely close to making me DNF it

11- favourite author?

I don't particularly have one, but I'm a big fan of the duo Ilona Andrews, I've liked a lot of Tessa Dare's books, loved a lot of Seanan McGuire, and when I'm in the mood for flowery Becky Chambers is a fav

12- buying books or borrowing books?

Borrowing. I primarily read books from the library because I don't re-read books. I have been trying to only purchase books if I have already read it and loved it, or if I'm getting it more as a souvenir

12- a book you dislike that everyone else seems to love

The Lost Causes of Bleak Creek by Rhett and Link. My friend and I buddy read it on her suggestion, and it was very apparently VERY quickly that, as someone who doesn't watch their show, I was not the target audience for it. I finished it because I was buddy reading it, but I found the pacing all over the place, the storyline fun enough, but I loathed the authors' self insert characters and would dread every chapter that focused on them.

14 - bookmarks or dogears?

Bookmarks no question! purposefully damaging books is so beyond me, I cannot understand how people fold pages, break spines, or write in books. Actually story time, when i worked at Disney, one of the tracks I would often work on was the fairy track that was basically just sitting back stage twiddling your thumbs and helping the fairies with their wings every 20 mins or so. One day Belle came through with Cinderella and Aurora and wanted to do a photoshoot and asked if I could help. I said sure and while we were setting up Belle noticed the book I had been reading and asked if she could use it as a prop. Again I was like yea sure have fun. First thing she does is brutally break the spine so it would lay flat for a better prop and I about died. There was no way I was going to yell at Belle about book treatment, but also that spine broke like my heart.

Unrelated, but while working on that same track, Tinkerbelle told me to never have sex while doing ecstasy cause it will ruin any sex you have while not on drugs for the rest of your life.

15- The book you can always reread?

I don't re-read books. I've got way too much I want to read and not enough hours in my life. The only times I'll re-read something is if the sequel/next book in the series came out, and I read the previous book far enough back that a vague reading of the plot isn't kick starting enough of my memory

16- can you read while listening to music?

Yes, I can tune out basically all background noise, but I prefer silence

17- one POV or multi POV?

Whichever as long as it's clear which POV we're reading if it's multi POV

18- do you read book in one sitting or in multiple days?

Whichever. I tend to read between activities (which is why i adore ebook loans from the library) so I generally can't read novels in one sitting. Manga, however, are always a one sitting read

19- who to tag: whoever would like to! I'd love to see @theladyw's answers :)

[sparkythehappygiraffe]

Things that shook me in Unrelatable

*Spoilers ahead*

Clarinet eye of the tiger lollllll

Wooton’s reaction to exercising 30 minutes a day

Okay but Connie getting roasted for having super high morals is exactly what I’ve been dealing with at college and like ...dang they came @ me (but also that was encouraging which is cool)

“You’re definitely not needy” WOOTON

He roasted her so hard lolllll

The brick blanket

Just everything Wooton says ever

Connie when are you going to kick J*llian out, you need more sleep than that babe

Also maybe start locking things... like first your car, now your house, this is getting out of hand in peaceful little ol odyssey

“The fire department puts you on hold??”

“But as soon as she receives the affirmation she desperately desires and deserves, we’ll talk” WOOTONNNN

Okay but why are they just constantly giving Connie all these self confidence issues, this isn’t a character trait people, it’s a PROBLEM and if they never address it imma be mad

“Or you can call to talk to Connie about... Connie” “Nice”

The girl who asked Wooton about relationships and wedding flowers and green sweaters 😂😂😂 Connies just sitting there like 👁👄👁

“Wow that’s mean” -Aio writers any time we call them out on anything

YOUR BEST FRIENDS WERE PRETTY MUCH ALL OLD MEN

That is the moment i almost ripped a stitch

Marshall you self-aware madman

Jason “I follow random crimes online when I’m bored” Whittaker

Why am I not surprised

Also the laundry truck thing has definitely been used before but I’ll let it slide

MY FAVE CRIME FIGHTING DUO RIGHT HERE

Don’t deny it, they are a legendary team up whether its romantic or not

Wait Connie just canonically found random details about Spencer online for Jason ... @takemebackto-kansas 👀

Please don’t tell me we’re gonna start shipping Connie with another criminal, this man is creepy as hek

The star Wooton bought 😂

Wooton.... has an alpaca??

Okay but Spencer talking to Connie, like talking about the bulletin board when they were in high school, that scene gave me literal chillssssss like DANG

And then Connie sounds so SCARED when she realizes he’s in her house AHHHHHH 100/10

The shift to Spencer being in Connie’s house MORE CHILLS

Okay but I’m so proud of Connie for this one, she’s so pure 🥺🥺

Spencer is CREEPY he sounds like a crazy person

Wooton agrees

Jackson’s comments lolllllll Wooton’s just like nO

Hi, I LOVE CONNIE

That is all

[saiintvalentiine]

hiiiiii saint! <3

i love your odysseys esp when they're happy and joyful ^_^

i love how nervous wifies is abt his dancing capabilities

i love even when wifies isn't good at dancing, even if he never gets better at it, parrot would still love to dance with him, bcs it's wifies and anything he does with wifies is special, that even if they spin round 100 times he'd still be smiling a joyful smile bcs it's wifies he's dancing with, and i'm not really normal abt that (then again i'm never normal abt odysseys :P)

i also wanna share my favorite quotes :

Parrot’s grip on his hand has saved him so many times that Wifies is red in the face with embarrassment.

i don't think i usually see you write wifies embarrassed, so i really like this, i really like seeing wifies embarrassed

“What are you so red for?” Parrot teases, and Wifies pinches his cheek for it. “Ouch, ouch, okay! Just, you gotta feel the music, c’mon.”

this is really cute, i can imagine wifies doing this to parrot every so while

That’s a tall ask. It’s a very, very tall ask. But Wifies looks up and meets Parrot eye to eye. His left foot drags a little behind, his right too quick, but Parrot is smiling with so much joy that Wifies thinks it’s probably okay if he scuffs Parrot’s boots a bit.

idk why but i'm a little bit obsessed with wifies not being able to make eye contact, wifies's nerves mellowing out bcs parrot's joy is really special to me

“Must be boring to dance with me,” he picks each word carefully, ignoring how breathless he sounds. He’s not tired, but anxiety muddles his chest. “Wingless and all.” “Never,” Parrot says. “Anything with you is good. The only bad part is I can’t get you out of your head for long enough to actually enjoy it.”

this, i really really like this, wifies's anxiety over messing up his dance steps, parrot's reassurance that anything he does with him is always good, and parrot's want to get wifies out of his head, so the both of them can enjoy this is so so so special to me

anyways, that's your 'once in a blue moon tumblr user arckade freak out'

bye! o/

hiiiiiiii Kade~ i do not often write happy and joyful odysseys so you must be starving :')

dancing is special, but dancing with Wifies makes it more special, and thats all that matter to Parrot.........

I DONT WRITE ENOUG EMBARRASSED WIFIES........ I SHOULD DO IT MORE................ blushing Wifies pinching Parrot was one of my favorite things to write get his ass mr wiffles

odyssey are like...............my eye contact duo. idk. like them making eye contact is so important to Me Specifically, I always have them looking at each other................ alexa play look by got7

"anything is good with you"/"nothing can be bad if it's you" are my FAVORITE SENTIMENTS EVER and I just wanted Parrot to love like a dog for a minute and im glad you liked it because writing it was so 😭😭😭 dads please undivorce.......................

Thank you for this wonderful message Kade 🫂🫂🫂
