Calypso: For once I wish you would lie and say-

Odysseus: I love you.

Calypso: You do?

Odysseus: But not in the way that you want me to.

Calypso: So....like a friend?

Odysseus: No, like Stockholm Syndrome.

Odysseus in the Troy Saga: I would trade the world to see my son and wife!

Odysseus in the Thunder Saga: *trades his crews lives to see his son and wife*

Me somehow blindsided by these turn of events:

I’m so strong for putting up with the other kings of Greece. #Except my bestie o-my-gods-just-let-me-die-omedes the only real one #if I have to hear agamemnon refuse to acknowledge the gods’ help one more time #he has so much hubris #could never be me

Day 57 in Troy: living my best life, my new “husband” was away today thank the Gods. I heard there’s going to be a war over me. Love the sentiment but it’s a little much y’know?

#my husband is so nice but he’s so dramatic #hes pooled together all the armies in Greece to come together #no hector hate in the reblogs ok? #hes actually pretty ok #we make fun of paris together

if you didnt get a coin in your mouth when you died in ancient greece, you weren't able to go to the underworld, and no men at sea got a burial (elpenor was actually very VERY lucky) so technically polites and all the others are just wandering alone and afraid and confused in their death places. polites sits in the cyclops cave, eurylochus and 580?? men are forever at the bottom of the sea, and 6 are still near scylla

If I see one more person say Odysseus cheated on Penelope I'm gonna rip out your ligaments like Typhon did to Zeus that one time

#epic the musical #the odyssey #odysseus #penelope epic the musical #“He slept with Calypso every night for 7 years” yeah bc she forced herself on him every night #and he had to sleep with Circe to save his crew #Not like bro could just refuse Calypso #she's a literal goddess who'd likely do who knows what to him for saying no. And as for Circe? Consent under duress is not consent #end of.#You forget the part in the poem where every morning he sits on the beach and cries bc he misses home and feels like he betrayed his wife???#Or how in the musical it's implied Calypso's abuse gets so bad it's one of the things that almost drives him to kill himself???#Or how in certain tellings of the Odyssey Ody straight up has a break down when telling his wife what they did to him #both bc of how badly it traumatized him and fear that she'll blame him for what happened and leave him?!?!!#Calypso and Circe when I catch you two when I catch you

Circe, Witch of Aiaia

I have drawn Circe so many times and i've finally settle on a design that is largely different but I like a lot

#on that note who the fuck thought Aiaia was a good name #it sounds like an asian parent when they look at your report car and see an A-#aiyahh repeated twice #like what were they doing #"I've created this cool character she's a witch and she's part of Odysseussy's journey!#okay Homer where does she live?#Uhhh Aiaiaiaiiaiaiaiaiaia #Oh Aiaia? Smart #...yeah #epic the circe saga #odyseussy #circe #circe saga #epic the musical #odysseus #the odyssey

People who criticize others for disliking the changes of Greek mythology when gods are twisted to look like some sort or final villain boss fight video game I honestly wanna see how the reactions would be if someone created a biblical musical where the Pharaoh of Egypt takes revenge against God of Israelites for killing the first born of Egypt by smiting him with his own sword or justice and claim he does it for his people while God begs for mercy.

Food for thought

#greek mythology #odysseus #tagamemnon #the odyssey #odyssey #homeric poems #food for thought #shitpost #biblical scripture #biblical pharaoh #death of the firstborn #greek mythology meant something for the ancient greeks and was an important cultural piece #mangling it is the equivalent of someone mangling someone's religion #just a little runt #random toughts #thoughts from the void #ancient greek poetry #ancient greek gods #hellenic polytheism #hellenic pantheon #bible #if you respect the bible then respect ancient religions too #and the culture of the greeks #of course fandom logic should be applied too like shipping biblical characters with each other and all the others #and changing critical parts of the bible to the point of having a “very loose adaptation”#if you feel is wrong for one then why do you thibk is okay for the other?#and why is there a problem for people protesting it?

“Hey bbg I know I just invalidated your feelings over your probably dead dad in front of a bunch of people and mocked you but do you wanna eat dinner with us?”

“Excuse me?”

#the odyssey #homers odyssey #antinous #telemachus #antimachus #i think they’re funny #this is an actual scene from the book by the way #I didn’t just make this up #this is just a humorized version of part of the book #this is like in book 2 or 3 i think #or maybe even still in 1?#i forgot and im too lazy to go check my copy of the book #antinous x telemachus

Cool stuff to learn when you are bored that is actually really interesting and might come in handy:

how to recognise the stars and constellations and the myths behind them (if you go stargazing)

the victorian language of flowers (to send secret messages to your friends)

morse code (same as above, plus it could save your life)

how to survive in the wild (speaks for itself)

biology/animal/human anatomy (its just. so interesting)

differerent types of seashells (again really interesting)

poisonous plants and their uses (DO NOT POISON ANYONE THAT IS NOT WHAT I MEAN. but you can recognise if one plant is poisonous and. you know. save smb)

learn about other cultures (food, clothes, myths etc. always be respectful tho <3)

read philosophy

read the illiad or the odyssey (the real ones. its so interesting)

honestly anything you are interested in is so cool learning about!

Percy Jackson Calypso: A teenage girl who was stuck (mentally and physically) as a teenage girl for thousands of years. Due to being literally prevented from maturing and having love be used as a punishment for her, love, relationships, and maturity are things she now struggles with.
