i've been reading a lot about fundamental differences between homer and tragedy and one interesting thing is the preoccupation of tragedy with the conflicts of women's loyalties to their natal and marital families, which manifests in so many tragedies putting women in situations where they are forced to choose sides in conflicts between their husbands/fathers/brothers/sons (eg medea chooses her husband over her father and brother, antigone chooses her brother over her future husband and potential children, procne chooses her sister and father over her husband and son, creusa remains dedicated to her father and his lineage instead of her husband and his). women are supposed to forge chains between men by their marriages and tragedies are so often interested in what happens to those connecting links when things go sour.

and that's just totally absent in homer, there's never any tension between icarius and odysseus or between eetion and the house of priam or between autolycus and laertes or between tyndareus and either paris or menelaus and agamemnon. most of the time either father-in-law or son-in-law is totally absent from the narrative. there's nothing that would put a woman in the position of mediating between the family she was born into and the family she married into.

but you know who in homer does experience this tension between loyalty to natal and marital families? hector. in iliad 6 andromache begs him to adopt a more defensive strategy because she and their son will be totally lost if he dies, and hector speaks of having to fight for his father's glory and his own. andromache and astyanax will suffer if hector dies well and bravely fighting for a lost cause, but priam will benefit. hector even acknowledges that after troy's fall it will be andromache who suffers most, not priam or hecuba-- for them the memory of hector's glory will be a consolation, while for her it will only be more pain. hector is torn between his father and his wife, the family he was born into and the family he has created through marriage.

a collection of random pjo hcs that are canon to me

ethan nakamura and drew tanaka are stepsiblings

annabeth and luke had snake like teeth - their incisors are sharper then normal

lee acts like a crow, collecting shiny things like rocks and jewelry

the titans called alabaster 'little general' to annoy both him and atlas

annabeths pupils dilate differently, either blowing too big like an owl or shrinking to a slit like a snakes

lee and gracie are full siblings

lou was in the army, died during the war and then came through the doors of death

luke has another scar across his chest/abdomen from ladon

kronos branded all the half-bloods in his army 🤗

Turnabout Samurai & Sisters!

I’d probably be fawning over Miles too, if I were Ms. Oldbag

That summer, Atlas spent most weekends at the beach with Asher and his family. Feeling part of such a loving family unit has been more healing than he expected.

Asher’s niece, Spencer, has even started referring to him as “Uncle Asses” ...which immediately made her his favorite.

Atlas finally moved into a new apartment, which he loooooves! Unsurprisingly, he still spends most of his time in his room glued to his computer.

While he’s not sure if/when he’ll ever be ready to live with Asher, he did give him a giant key to his new place.

And they celebrated...

...a lot

As the summer came to a close, everyone gathered for Kiyoshi and Kaori’s wedding.

It was a beautiful outdoor event, that went flawlessly, of course... and I'm not at all considering Phoenix and Dawn either elope or never get married just so I don't have to deal with the stress of a wedding... 😅

But everyone had fun, and isn't that what really matters?

Prev // Next

Bonus under the cut:

The wedding reception got a little more interesting once they all moved inside for drinks and dancing...

Dawn was so impressed by Phoenix's speech that she picked him up and spun him around the room.

Then Phoenix decided it would be a grand idea to light up a cigar on the dance floor... no one was too impressed, I'll be honest.

And Kiyoshi's tea got stuck to his phone, but that didn't stop him from trying to check his e-mail... much to the annoyance of his new wife. 😒

I think wrightworth is so much better when it's Miles who's the mess who burns water and Phoenix who's better at daily functional things like cooking, cleaning, etc.

Miles Edgeworth is a man who has a tea set delivered to his office by a local hotel. He does not know how to cook.

10 & 20 for the ask game

10. Fandom that you've spent the most money on?

For me, it’s definitely a tie between FMA, Critical Role and Black Butler 😅

I have all of the hardback ‘Fullmetal Editions’ of the FMA manga which were a FORTUNE to collect (#responsiblepurchases) and are amongst my prized possessions. Otherwise, I also have so much Roy Mustang… just so much

Critical Role / The Legend of Vox Machina is here after I lost my DAMN MIND and queued for 6 hours for 3 autographs and 1 photo from Travis, Tal & Liam… I’m sure y’all can imagine the con cost… 😵 (Travis contributes to the FMA money pit as well…) I also own two of the cursed Vox Machina figures (if you know you know) and I love them (Percy, Vax, my beloveds🫶🏻)

For Black Butler, Mod Hawkeye says I have a Sebastian shrine. I want to be clear that it is NOT a shrine but simply one hell of a collection 🙇🏻‍♂️

- Mod Mustang 🔥

—————————————————————————

…It’s 100% a Sebastian shrine.

Anyway— for me it’s probably between Animal Crossing and Ace Attorney.

Animal Crossing has always kinda been tied to new console releases, I literally only got my own Switch because of ACNH 💀🌺🏝

As for Ace Attorney, the games themselves over the years have definitely added up. Especially if you consider the crossover game (an absolute nightmare to find at the time) and Project X Zone 2. I’m not a fighting game person like that, but Phoenix Wright, Maya and the promise of a Miles Edgeworth appearance sold it ⚖️🌻

Other than that, I have the Nendos and the Pop-up Parade figures of Miles and Phoenix (as does Mod Mustang!)

As you can imagine, I’ve been absolutely losing my mind over finally getting a localised Ace Attorney Investigations!

- Mod Hawkeye 🦅

20. All-time favorite fanfic author?

Honestly, we just go where the tags and cool summaries lead 🤩 But if you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them!

- Mod Mustang & Mod Hawkeye 🔥🦅

"Do you have any of this jack in the boxes, like, bigger?"

"We only have the one size, I make them all myself! So you could always comission something."

"Maybe. It's for a magic act."

"Wow! Awesome."

Where did Phoenix get a phone? 📱

I dislike how the babies ocasionally text the older sims. Like how did you got a phone? I would love it if the was a bunch of gibberish so maybe it was that they took the parents phone or something similar. But why is he congradulating her on her new relationship?

[phoenix--flying]

holding out TA spy Drew Tanaka whos role in the army stays under wraps after the war and her anger towards Silena isn't because she betrayed camp, but because she betrayed the army

Also if it incorporates that Drew/Ethan step sibs headcanon we can have them being silly on the Andromeda <33

plus ethan threatening to throw nyssa off the ship if she hurts drew after they start dating. nyssa is not only intimidated because it's ethan but also because hes her fuckin lieutenant LMFAOOOO

Even doing something really small,

Is still better than not doing anything at all.
