thinking about patroclus and the moon will sing by the crane wives
it's so fitting because of course, i, zach, would know that patroclus killed sarpedon and was also taught how to ride horses by fucking poseidon ??? (still questioning that one)
but everyone else doesn't
they only know achilles and patroclus
the greatest of the greeks! and patroclus ??? like his whole legacy is achilles. people know him as achilles' lover (or 'dearest friend' but literally look at them)
'i shine only with the light you gave me' is literally him. that is literally patroclus after stealing achilles' armor. they only won because patroclus presented himself as a false sun, the damn fucking moon, june (rhymes!).
it's always and patroclus, or achilles' lover, or his companion, or his closest friend, the guy that stole achilles' armor, but he's never a standalone name to most people
yeah uh anyway, stream the moon will sing
zach i saw this while i was cramming my fili paper and i had to stop and try not to cry for a bit
#i literally have no words tbh this just made me feel alot of Things#oh patroclus….#also the way you wrote this is so awesome it paints such a melancholic picture in my head#also the crane wives BASED AS HELLLLLL#patroclus#moots#asks

My thoughts on the champion!Patroclus au are so disorganized I have not slept, but know that the main reason for its existence is that fictional men are infinitely more attractive when sweaty and covered in blood
#i mean i have other reasons#like the study of wrath#and this idea of achilles training zagreus to defeat the champion (by death) and by proxy he will be killing patroclus#and also something aristos achaion something If he truly is the best of the Greeks then why doesn't he come up here and kill me himself? Etc#open invitation to flirt through battle by student proxy#patroclus before stabbing zagreus through the chest: tell your mentor i expected better from aristos achaion#achilles: oh i see how it is

Do you ever think of Achilles seeing him and Patroclus in Zagreus and Thanatos.
Like considering how Than's usual spot is really close to the place Achilles usually is, he surely has listened their convos and their behavior reminded him of him and Pat.
Do yall see my vision

Nestor : im pleased to see my youngest is settling well in the army !
Antilochus being hand-fed figs by Achilles.
Patroclus stripping Antilochus almost naked to treat a minor injury on his chest.
Patroclus and Achilles bathing Antilochus after a battle.
Achilles pressing himself against Antilochus and holding his body to show him the best position to use a bow.
Antilochus sitting between Patroclus' thighs, who's combing his hair.
After a night of drinking wine together, Antilochus falling asleep in Achilles's tent, held tightly between him and Patroclus.
Nestor : aww look at him, hes already forging fraternal bonds
#mgood sir i am afraid your son has caught the affection of the camp's gay couple#oh dont worry he will be fine and even avenged#scrolling on Antilochus' tag on ao3 WHY IS THERE ALMOST NOTHING ABOUT HIM#free my boy he is gay and beloved by even gayer ppl#the iliad#tagamemnon#Achilles#Patroclus#patrochilles#patrochiles#antilochus

Doomed mothers in greek mythology they could never make me hate you (Demeter, Thetis, Clytemnestra, Penelope, Andromache, etc)
#Demeter specifically makes me so ill I love her sm guys#The story of Demeter and Persephone is so tragic#A mother’s love turned a mother’s grief and how it shook the world#And Thetis too omfg don’t get me started she loved her son so much#When she’s consoling her son in his maddening grief she heard his cry all the way from the ocean and she immediately came to his side#she preserved the body of Patroclus she asks Haphaestus to make his armour etc etc#Penelope oh penelope I might cry if I think about her too much#She waited so long for her husband she raised her son through all those years without odysseus all while batting off 100+ suitors#Demeter#Thetis#clytemnestra#penelope of ithaca#penelope odyssey#andromache of troy#greek mythology#deadbaguettesrambles

Just thinking about Hector when he thought he bested Aristos Achaion. He beat his fate, he saved his city, only to pull the helmet off and see that he killed the one thing Achilles loved and supposedly kept him human.
#his heart propably stopped in that moment#oh shit#he's a dead man#patrochilles#the iliad#hector#achilles#patroclus#greek mythology#the song of achilles

historians: oh yeah they were good friends
teachers: theyre not really relevant to this subject
my mom: who and who?
plato:
#i mean do we really need any more proof?#patrochilles#achilles#patroclus#tsoa#the song of achilles#plato fangirling about patrochilles will always be my favourite argument in my phylosophy classes#like oh yeah you think he was boring?#he had a tragic backstory (they killed his sugar daddy) and he started a tumblr blog to rant about dead gays#bet you couldnt top that#<- i didnt plan that joke sorry#anyway#(tbh i dont really like plato but i love this of him like yas queen you go girl)

“He whom I value more than all others, and love as dearly as my own life? I have lost him”
- the Iliad
“When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”
- the Song of Achilles
“Say that there were two boys who raced each other to the sunrise. Say that one went too far, and the other went with him”
- Aristos: the Musical @aristosmusical
Gouache on paper
Here’s teenage Patroclus and Achilles, soft and carefree and unknowing of their fate, plus some quotes that twist my gut every time I read them
#oh to have a studio Ghibli kiss in a field of roses#doomed by the narrative#the song of achilles#madeline miller#aristos the musical#the iliad#homer#patroclus#achilles#patrochilles#tsoa fanart#tsoa#homer's iliad
