Bacon: "'Do you still support Zam? Like, what if Wemmbu tells me to kill him?' Well-- I think... personally... and maybe he-- he would probably agree with me this-- agree with me on this... I think killing Zam is not that bad. Like, how much does he care about himself being killed? It's just one heart gone. If he gets to too low he can just craft up, y'know? Like, how much does a death really matter?"

Bacon: "I think what's more important is the things that are important to Zam."

Bacon: "Like, I dunno, his friends and... actually, I don't-- but, like, even, like, that I would be fine killing them, i-it's just, like, y'know... I just don't wanna-- I wanna make Zam's life fun."

Bacon: "And sometimes... his life being fun might mean that he dies a few times."

Bacon: "'Says that as he's on four hearts.' Well, Zam is a little bit more willing to grind than me."

Bacon: "I give up a little bit faster than him. So..."

Bacon: [falls off small hill after fighting zombie] "Woah."

Bacon: "If he really does want... to grind those hearts back, he will."

Bacon: [brewing potions] "Alright... let's pop that right in there."

Bacon: "'I wanna make enrichment for him.' Yeah, I mean he's been saying the most fun he's been having... is running around in a flower field? C'mon, bro, I can give you more fun than that, y'know?"

Bacon: "'What's the point in killing Zam? He doesn't do anything.' Yeah, exactly!"

Bacon: "But, like, I wouldn't be morally against it, I think I'd just be strategically against it."

Bacon: "It'd be a waste of resources."

...

Bacon: "It's an interesting position to put yourself in."

Bacon: "You make yourself, like, just..."

Bacon: "...un-- y-y-y-- it's like..."

Bacon: "...being, uh..."

Bacon: "...it's like being, like, a poisonous animal..."

Bacon: "...except... not exactly that..."

Bacon: "It's just more, like, being like an animal that... really doesn't give you any nutrition at all, I guess."

Bacon: "Y'know, that nobody wants to eat you!"

Bacon: "I feel like you can't ask Zam to trust you and then start killing him--' I don't really care... what you guys think I can or can't do."

Bacon: "Or what Zam thinks I can or can't do."

Bacon: "That's probably what other people would say..."

Bacon: "I don't care, though!"

Bacon: "I told Zam I wouldn't lie to him... I will continue to not lie to him."

Bacon: "If I kill him, that's whatever."

Bacon: "I'm not gonna manipulate him, though."

Bacon: "...or any of that stuff."

Bacon: "I'm not gonna, like... do mental damage to him."

Bacon: "Killing him, though, whatever, he'll survive."

_____

Bacon: "'Did you not lie to him buy saying you were gonna brew potions?' Yeah."

Bacon: "I'm not gonna lie to him anymore, though."

Bacon: "Y'know, I hadn't figured it all out yet."

Bacon: "''He'll survive,' not really if you kill him.' I'm pretty sure he will survive."

Bacon: "If I try and kill him he definitely will."

.....

Bacon: [attacking a zombie] "Dude, if I start hitting you more zombies will come... and try and kill me."

Bacon: "Y'know what position you've just put me in, man?"

....

Bacon: "'Zam's like a cockroach, killing him doesn't do much.' Yeah. I guess."

Bacon: "I think killing a cockroach kinda does something. I'm pretty s-- in my limited knowledge of cockroaches, I think they do die if you kill them."

Bacon: "But... I don't know, I guess I'm not an expert."

_____

[Bacon has finished gathering obsidian for an ender chest]

Bacon: "It's true, I was getting in the potion-brewing mindset, y'know?"

Bacon: "It was all a very important step of potion-brewing."

Bacon: "I needed to get into a situation where I needed to brew potions in the first place."

Bacon: "So I wasn't even really lying to him if you think about it."

Bacon: "No-- but I'm not even gonna do those lies... y'know? 'Cause that is-- tha-- I would consider that a lie and that's some-- that's some bullshit if you're really say that that's not a lie."

Bacon: "It's important to be realistic."

HEY YOU!!

Do YOU want to rewatch all of Phil's QSMP Hardcore Deity Lore in one big binge like a total fucking masochist? LOOK NO FURTHER!

In order to drag my friends into Bird Man Brainrot Hell with me, I made a bullet list of all the major lore vods with dates and timestamps included for a streamlined list of what and where to watch!

All you have to do is use this [QPhil Lore Playlist] I made from our beloved Crow Mercy's Phil vods channel and refer to the bullet list below!

Tallulah & Chayanne would've loved this day (Sept 15th 2023, 8:00:15 to the end)

What Happened to Me? (Sept 24th 2023, 1:09:11-1:14:11)

Is this real? (September 25th, 2023, 3:08:14-3:27:10)

Finding the Line (Oct 27th 2023, 2:50:00-3:03:00)

A discovery… (Dec 6th 2023, 2:19:47-3:15:26)

Another discovery (Dec 15th 2023, 2:42:07-2:46:28, 2:57:18-3:00:17, 5:37:39 to the end)

Healing (Dec 18th 2023, 3:07:10-3:10:08, 6:10:59-6:29:40)

Xmas Event & A New Threat (Dec 20th 2023, 3:11:25-3:18:01, 3:36:33-3:42:46, 6:19:06-6:20:22)

A message or a warning? (Jan 12th 2024, 7:53-20:40)

The date is fast approaching (Jan 17th 2024, 2:21:26-2:24:51, 6:08:28-6:15:45)

oh boy oh gosh it's island time (Feb 21st 2024, 6:21:12-6:26:13)

A Strange Gift (Feb 23rd 2024, 2:15:11-2:20:11) (OPTIONAL: WATCH WHOLE VOD)

Greed comes with a price (Feb 26th 2024, 1:50:53-2:00:00, 2:25:38 to the end) (OPTIONAL: WATCH WHOLE VOD)

Break past the void (March 1st, 2024, 4:30-27:45) (OPTIONAL: WATCH WHOLE VOD)

ALTERNATIVELY!!

EDIT: Following Twitch's change in 2025 with VOD storage, this method may not work. Try it and see, this is just a head's up because I personally haven't tested it.

If YouTube is giving you trouble for one reason or another, YOU'RE IN LUCK!!

Kristin uploads all of Phil's vods to an archive on his Twitch, so you can actually find ALL these vods on Phil's Twitch channel too! I did this myself just a few days before posting this, they're all uploaded and relatively easy to find!

In order to do it this way, all you have to do is go to here on Phil's Twitch, then refer to the dates in the above bullet list in the vod titles. Once you find the right vod, just refer to the timestamps above and go nuts!

Happy binging and reliving Bird Man Trauma! :D

And as a bonus note:

The vods in my playlist that AREN'T major Hardcore Deity Lore moments are other significant QSMP Lore moments Phil was involved in or present for, so you could actually binge the entire playlist chronologically if you want to relive it ALL! :)

Felassan's notes section of this post -

In this episode of the Game Informer show, Game Informer talk some more about their trip to BioWare's studio for the DA:TV cover story, when BioWare showed them hours of DA:TV content while playing it live.

Some notes from this and from what they said:

Wesley LeBlanc wasn't a huge DA fan and he went in with no expectations. The job to go to BW for this just landed on his plate due to other peoples' schedules. After seeing the game, it's probably his most anticipated game for the rest of the year and the one he's most looking forwards to

The game really wowed him and stuck with him, he said he is thrilled about it and is engrossed in the fantasy it's bringing

The visuals and world finally feel like what BioWare has maybe always wanted to make

This is the game where the team said, yeah, we feel fully in command of the Frostbite engine, and it shows

The world is more like Fable-type whimsy than prior DA games. It has a high fantasy feel

BW want new people to play the game. They're very aware that it's been 10 years since the last game and the game does a good job of catching people up

Rook as the PC really has no idea what's going on with Solas and all the other lore-specific stuff that's happening in the game, so they kind of act as the stand-in for newer players or people who have not caught up on the lore

But it's not just a game for newcomers, there is still a lot to chew on in the game for hardcore DA fans. BioWare were saying that they know their community, what it wants and what it's looking for out of these characters

Wesley enjoyed the music, visual design, and voice acting

Nothing that they saw about the game stood out as worrisome to him

Wesley has quite a lot of further stories to add to Game Informer's DA:TV hub

Wesley: "On the topic of the [Dragon Age] fanbase, I just wanna give a shoutout to that community, because, wow, I did not, I knew people would be stoked about this cover, but people are really stoked about this cover. And it’s really funny, the day that we announced it, I got like hundreds of new followers. Anytime, if I tweet about Erdtree or Destiny 2, I get like my normal amount of likes, like, a dozen maybe, y’know, whatever. If I tweet about Dragon Age, it’s like. Today I tweeted, ‘my next feature is coming at 3pm’ and it’s at 1000 likes, it’s so funny, like, this community is like rabid for information, which makes sense if you haven’t gotten a game in 10 years. But yeah, so like, shoutout to y’all, I’m loving you guys reading the articles and telling me what you wanna hear about. So if you have any questions or anything, get at me on Twitter for sure, and I will see what I can cook up with some writing for you. But yeah, shoutout to the BioWare community, y’all crazy.”

Holy fuck. @xieyaohuan and I are yappers. This is very much unplanned freestyle stream of consciousness conversation about Homelander and Homelander-adjacent things. No promises on the quality, but I thought the conversational flow was pretty good. Topics are timestamped (do not look at the total time, please).

And apologies for the laptop microphone (sounds like at least one of us is speaking out of a jar and no in silico dialogue enhancement could rescue it). I only have one good microphone and that would not work for a 2 way conversation -_-

philm club rewatch #1

phil 7/21/12

detailed timestamp notes below the cut but my overall summary thoughts are

you could tell phil was still getting into the groove of liveshows so it's a little awkward and slow going in the first 15 minutes are so with lots of shoutouts and showing the camera random things. liveshows got sooo much better after just a year or so it's fascinating to watch them getting comfortable

mind boggling to think back to a time they were willing to show up to fan meetups and then made a point to state publicly why they weren't there AND share their location so openly constantly (obviously they were about to move but STILL they showed the outside of their flat So Much back then)

the juxtaposition of how naturally comfortable they were with each other (stealing hats, sharing food, having their little jokes and songs) vs. them remembering the chat and having to recalibrate (i don't want to procreate with you)

i'm gonna be sooooo real i still spent the entire hour kicking my legs and twirling my hair and having to pause to compose myself because that's my phil like that was my guy and it brought back all those giddy feelings :3

i love them both so dearly and i love that era despite the bad rep it gets in fandom now because it was also so exciting and new but they were growing up together and taking on the world like 2012 WAS dnp vs. the world and dnp won <3333

0:28- agrees to marry a girl and a boy

1:38- final broadcast from manchester!! moving to london

2:40- stressed bc logistics for moving (he’s trying to be a grown up). interesting that he is taking the reigns on coordinating and not dan 

6:27- PIGEON NOISE MY BELOVED

8:50- phil refers to processed ingredients as “skanky stuff”. sure. 

11:59- he's gonna put lion in his backpack during the move 😭😭 he doesn’t want to lose him

15:01- dan jumpscare popping into defending phil for not showing up to a meet up 

16:21- dan gives him an A star….girl

21:30- american phil i haaaaate it i hate it i hate it

21:57- “everyone just says awkward for everything now” okay this but now everyone says “help??” in the replies of every tweet WHAT DOES IT MEAN???

22:35- cornelia playing harpsichord at phil’s parents 

24:42- phil attempts a guest broadcast with a fan and he’s being so cute despite the horrors

28:42- they’re going to see muse again 😭😭 

30ish- fanfiction segment i love his brain

33:55- dan gets caught playing gw2 and not packing asdfghjl. omg their apartment is a mess they stress me out 

34:39- the way they used to show off their exact locations was truly a time like girl internet safety!!

35:21- he still wants to call his children jack and emily (cuts quickly to mo and slyvester lester joke and i won’t think too hard about what that means with this also being the era of dan being SO deadset on having 2 or 3 children like god they were just babies with dreams)

37:14- phil thinks max the guest is australian and has The Biggest Grin phil you slag ilysm and now he’s promoting him hard lmao

39:57- drawing game. he went too fast i couldn’t keep up so i stopped. unfortunate slur from the chat. 

44:38- had to check his tumblr archive to see the kstew gif he mentioned and found a mv a fan did of the manchester flat to i will always love you phil reblogged (phannies never change)

45:27- sneak peak of the “new” apartment WHAT IF I SOBBED!!!! the first london flat…god they had no idea what’s coming and all the things that will happen in that house ;___; living with danisnotonfire who is through that wall and Not Packing (married babies)

46:24- NEW I LOVE YOU FOR THE ILY SPREASHEET FUCK YEAH!!!

46:41- he’s getting a bit annoyed at the go get dan comments and it’s such a specific shift in vibes which makes sense because this was younow and god knows what that chat was also saying 

48:57- omg it’s danisnotonfire! what are you doing here get out of my house (you’re the same person dot gif) also sooo funny they already had their sides™️

50:36- that iconic dan hair push up and swoop is simultaneously the most comforting/nostalgic and single most anxiety inducing motion of all time

52ish- they’re sooo low energy in this one but it’s still comforting 

53:35- these two…

57:52- phil putting things on dans head because of course he does and taking dans thing because of course he does

58:00- i am not immune to phil in the trapper hat. 

58:24- them seeing all the screenshots and immediately making jokes (fun little note for those who don’t know is younow would have a pop up everytime someone took a snapshot so they knew every time they were being archived which had to have been a specific kind of hell and also what a shit feature??) their skin molecules are touching 

1:01:48- quite possibly the single most controversial shirt dan has ever owned. people haaaatedddd it for years (now im just soft bc its nostalgic)

1:04:06- dan and alexander mcqueen 4ever truly lmao also phil immediately having an opinion on the one he liked dan in better 

1:04:44- "dan played it on repeat all yesterday" “whenever i get sad i listen to it” :(( dan

1:05:15- dans fashion opinions haven’t changed and also the start of them being So conscious of revealing what they spend their money on because fans “didn’t like” when they spent a lot of money on things

1:05:46- we made it an hour before they read a gay comment but he’s handling it better than usual. phil saying “ don’t go there”

1:08:05- dan is STILL yapping about the hat god i love him he simply must elucidate 

1:09:29- aweeee a fanboy <333 he’s their love child (except dan reminds phil they’re not down to procreate with each other)

1:10:24- i love that phil has always thrown a random question at people to ease the tension like it’s suuuch a phil thing to ask what your worst fear is when you’re feeling awkward 

[melefim]

Dead Boy Detectives full soundtrack!

(Or at least all the ones I could find)

I’ve seen several soundtrack playlists floating around, but unfortunately a lot have other songs added or are missing some that were used in the show, so I went ahead and made my own!

Below the cut is a full listing of when each song was used during the show, timestamped as accurately as I could manage.

Please let me know if there are any songs I missed, and I’ll add them ASAP! Score will be added if/when it’s released. If anyone would be interested in separate posts for each episode, let me know and I’ll get right on it!

Enjoy!

[fullcolorfright]

The 1997 documentary A Bit of Scarlet, narrated by Ian McKellen, collects clips from British films from the 1930s-1990s with either queer subtext or direct queer themes. While watching, I wished any of those clips had been labeled with their source, so for the last couple days I went through and tried to timestamp as many of the clips as I could. There's still a few missing (mostly short clips and interviews- comment if you recognize any), but this should be the majority. I'm putting it behind a readmore because there's a ton. If you're in the US, you can watch the film free with a library card on Kanopy.

Sonic Fan Claiming Several Sonadow Wiki Information as Their Own

It has recently been brought to our attention that there is a user by the name "Voiced by Mandy" on YouTube, X, Instagram and TikTok that made a video based off of a majority of our content. The user did not credit us despite us doing a majority of the research shown and the person even put us down by trying to claim a fact we have as misinformation.

Though we do not mind when people use our research to tell others about it, we asked that at least we be credited, especially for our personal analyzations. This user has not done that, not even in her document where she credited others.

To make matters worse, the person only mentioned the Sonadow Wiki while trying to state that we were spreading misinformation when saying that Sonic and Shadow Chao are the only Sonic themed Chao who can mate with each other. Because other Sonic themed Chao are immortal, that is why only the Sonic and Shadow Chao can mate with each other without hacks or modifications.

There are several parts in the video that takes content from us or were made aware of due to our content on the wiki, but the person took the information as her own and acted as if she did all the research to find all the information. She even took our Sonic Prime screenshots, which we can tell due to the pictures being the same exact frame we took, and still does not credit. (Starts at 1:41:42)

Some timestamps where our research was taken:

37:35

59:55

1:02:33 (Which was actually brought to our attention through the user [Bluestblurrr] on the Fandom Wiki)

2:03:01

2:38:57

There are even times the person took our site references when talking about information we mentioned, such as when she talks about the symbolism with hydrangeas. We talk about this on our Observations page and the first site referenced is the same exact website shown on the video.

She also took our content talking about how Sonic is the Moon and that the Sonic x Shadow 2021 Calendar story references Tanabata. We were the first to make this known to the public, even before the Sonadow Wiki was founded by having it on the Shipping Wiki first. Yet the person acts as if this theory, or analyzation, came from herself or out of nowhere despite it being us who made this analyzation known. (Link to our page with the English translation for the Sonic x Shadow 2021 Calendar Story)

Other analyzations made on the story were also taken, such as how the astronomical show of the moon and ARK were Sonic's favorite, meaning that the times he meets up with Shadow are his favorites since Sonic represents the Moon while Shadow the ARK (in this story) (timestamp 2:41:15).

Another part is how in the description for the story, it states that Sonic and Shadow share an intimate relationship, which the person does not go deeper into to fully explain it properly.

One last analyzation taken about this story is how Sonic, being the moon, overlooks Shadow who is ostracized by society and watches over him forever and ever. (timestamp 2:40:41)

There are even other times where it is not so obvious (but possible) she took our research by trying to find the content herself to make it seem as if she found it instead of us. One of these times where this can be highly likely possible is the S-Rank moments in Sonic Colors (DS) (timestamp 1:18:00). We went through the effort to play the game ourselves in order to get this content, but to hide how we made these things known to the public after our hard work, she went to try to get S-Rank herself so that she wouldn't have to use our screenshots from our gameplay with the game.

The only time we were mentioned in the video (by voice only) was with our fact about the Sonic and Shadow Chao, but unlike others who also weren't referenced by links but by text, she does not state that what we've said comes from the Sonadow Wiki by putting the text: "Source: [name of site]." And while mentioning this, the person even tried to state that this fact about the Chao could be misinformation.

Example of when others were at least mentioned to be somewhat cited:

When trying to confront her, she even hid the comment made so that others wouldn't know that she took our information without crediting us while putting us down at the same time.

We who take care of the Sonadow Wiki went through a lot of harassment, especially from those who hate how we collect data concerning Sonadow, hate the ship or just wanted to harass us for fun. Some even thought that the official information we recorded were fan content or they say lies about us without even looking at the materials themselves. But what this person has done is by far one of the most scummiest things someone has ever done to us where the person even is gloating about all the attention Sonadow fans are giving them for the majority of the research we've done, where the person even gloated about how they can monetize videos after the attention this video has brought them and where they even are trying to get more views nine days later.

If people don't like our content or don't like us, then don't use our content; don't steal our work. If you can't be fair and at least credit your sources correctly, even if you don't agree with everything, then don't use our things at all. That is low, and again, very scummy.

Update:

In an update about the situation, one of our admins went around trying to bring awareness about the situation, but instead of being talked to or consulted, they were ignored and even had their comment made hidden by one of the ones who is credited in the video and praised it. The person even made art for the video implying that the video creator is the main or only one who did all the effort in finding all the information in the video. This artist then made an off comment, on their own without talking to the person, claiming that the video creator taking our research was based off of "crazy assumptions" despite the evidences and that the person is crazy and needs help.

This person has also helped with the video, and with that, helped with the creation of the video to have it take our research for their own. This is said in the "Special Thank You" section in the video. Due to being promoted and advertised by this video, along with helping the creation of it completely, that could be the main reason as to why this artist reacted this way to the person reaching out to them.

We also tried to reach out to others to ask for help in at least getting recognized for credit, but we have yet heard any responses from those we reached out to. Instead, we were ignored.

[darkmaga-returns]

General Mike Flynn Joins us for Doug Casey's Take [ep.#359}

Doug Casey, LTG USA (RET) Michael T. Flynn, and Matt Smith

Nov 20, 2024

Today we’re joined by General Michael Flynn who delivers a blistering critique of the bureaucratic deep state, the Bidenistas, and the dangerous path the U.S. is treading both domestically and internationally. Flynn doesn’t mince words as he outlines the urgent need for bold and unconventional actions to restore order and accountability in government.

"You see this building behind me? It’s never going to ruin your life again." Flynn describes what real leadership looks like, imagining the moment Trump could shut down the FBI entirely, symbolizing a reckoning for government overreach.

For Flynn, it’s not just about reform—it’s about uprooting entrenched systems: "There’s no trimming the branches here. It’s time to pull it out by the roots."

He draws parallels between historical leaders like Alexander the Great and Trump, emphasizing the need for extraordinary courage to tackle extraordinary times. Flynn warns of the stakes: "If Trump doesn’t take these actions, I’m not sure we’ll course correct in time."

From the dangers of escalating tensions with Russia—“We’re one step from World War III”—to the cultural decay caused by a “woke bureaucracy,” Flynn paints a stark picture of America’s challenges. Yet, he remains optimistic that decisive leadership and a mandate for change can restore the nation to greatness.

New Episode Alert: “The guys are weird about each other.” IV with Jackie, “The Epic Love Story of Sam and Dean” creator

@jinkieswouldyoulookatthis It's Jackie!!

A long time friend of Sandra & Kasey and the podcast, we finally sat down to talk all things everything with Jackie. I mean where do we start? Her fandom journey? Hanging out at DCCon 2024 with Sandra? *That* moment she had with Jensen? (hint, it involves thighs 😉) What about saturation diving and the mechanics of torture - does it reach a critical mass at some point?

To misquote Bilbo Baggins: We know Jackie's fandom journey less than half as well as we should like, but we like her more than we can say!

Needless to say Jackie will be back, there's so much we didn't get to. And you're gonna need snacks, a drink & a comfy seat for this 3 hour epic!

The Color of Pomegranates is a 1969 Soviet Armenian art film written and directed by Sergei Parajanov. The film is a poetic treatment of the life of 18th-century Armenian poet and troubadour Sayat-Nova. It has appeared in many polls as one of the greatest films ever made and was hailed as revolutionary by Mikhail Vartanov. The film is now regarded as a landmark in film history. .The Color of Pomegranates - Wikipedia

Thunder Saga Recap

For those that were not present for the livestream, it can get confusing as to what the hell is happening during the songs, since there is no visual aid (until the rest of the animatics from the livestream are posted, that is).

Some of this is based on the animatics, seeing as the artists were following Jay's lead on character design and whatnot. Other parts are based on the descriptions that were shown alongside the lyrics (these are the parts I write in quotes + italics). The timestamps aren't exact, but the chronology of events is the same.

<< SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT >>

SUFFERING

I'm unsure whether or not Odysseus is tied to the ship's mast during this scene, but I would assume he is (based on the actual part with the sirens in The Odyssey).

01:52 – When Odysseus says, "But Scylla has a price," he is referring to the fact that Scylla will eat six men from whatever ship passes by her. She only has six heads, so she only eats one man per head.

DIFFERENT BEAST

00:00 – Fake Penelope gets shot (with an arrow, I think).

00:22 – Fake Penelope hisses.

00:57 – "The crew reveals packs of sirens caught in nets hanging over the ship."

02:59 – "The crew cuts off the tails of the sirens. They toss them back into the water, turning the water red with blood."

SCYLLA

*I don't have exact timestamps for this one, because the events here are almost entirely based on the animatic that played during the livestream. I kind of guessed at some points but as I said before, the important stuff is in order.

01:17 – Odysseus tells Eurylochus to light six torches. Odysseus knows that Scylla will kill six men, and plans to essentially serve six of his men to her on a silver platter by making them stand out.

01:27 – Eurylochus has lit the torches (at least mostly). Eurylochus himself is holding one of these torches.

01:55 – Scylla starts picking off the six men, brutally killing and eating them.

02:00 – One man down.

02:04 – Two.

02:12 – Three.

02:19 – Eurylochus is pushed out of the way of one of Scylla's heads. He drops his torch. A different man is eaten. Four.

02:23 – Five.

02:32 – Eurylochus realizes that Scylla is going after the men with the torches. He sees one of his crewmates on the other side of the ship, holding a torch as one of Scylla's heads prepares to feast. Eurylochus runs, reaches out, tries to warn him— but he fails. Six.

MUTINY

00:00 – "The ship is covered in blood and gore."

00:08 – "Eurylochus looks around at the gore. But Odysseus looks on."

01:13 – Boss Battle: Eurylochus.

01:29 – Eurylochus swings at Odysseus. The two begin to fight.

01:35 – Odysseus starts winning the fight, getting a few minor hits on Eurylochus before knocking him down.

01:45 – Just as Odysseus is about to deal the final blow, he is stabbed from behind (the wound is in his side).

02:10 – Odysseus is knocked out.

02:15 – Odysseus wakes up on the island of Thrinacia. He is tied up, and his wound is bandaged. They are in a pasture full of cows.

02:39 – Eurylochus points out a statue. He recognizes that it is depicting the god of the sun, but he doesn't recognize it as Apollo (who is the more modern god of the sun, that the crew knows and has worshipped in the past).

03:13 – Although Odysseus has not been specifically warned about the cattle (like in The Odyssey), he knows that these cattle belong to the sun god depicted by that statue. He knows that killing these cattle will not end well.

04:02 – Eurylochus slaughters one of the cows.

04:18 – Odysseus manages to untie himself. He urges his men to get to the boat and get away.

04:43 – Odysseus hears the thunder. He knows it's too late.

THUNDER BRINGER

02:33 – Odysseus has a vision (or hallucination, IDK) of Penelope. The animatic shows her descending from the sky like an angel.

03:15 – Zeus strikes down Odysseus's men.

03:42 – Zeus strikes down Odysseus's ship. Odysseus falls into the sea, surrounded by the bodies of his brothers.

Aaaand that's it for The Thunder Saga! I don't want to spoil anything for the next saga in case people aren't familiar with the original story, so I'll leave it there. If you have any additions or corrections, please let me know!
