Okay, let's finally talk about EPIC's Apollo
I feel very compelled to say, first of all, that I do not dislike Epic. In fact, I am very fond of Epic and have been following its production and status very eagerly! I attend all the launch streams, I watch all of Herrans' update videos; I am, at the end of the day, a fan and I want it to be known that my words are spoken out of love and passion as much as they are spoken from a place of critique.
So really, what my problem with Epic's Apollo?
In the briefest possible terms; the choice to have Apollo be defined by his musical aspect in God Games is thematically strange. And not in the 'oh well in the Odyssey, Apollo was important to Odysseus and his family so it's weird that that wasn't kept in Epic' strange, strange in the sense that Odysseus' character arc since My Goodbye has been getting more and more obviously Apollonian and so it is positively bizarre that when we get to meet Apollo, the god seems entirely disinterested in him and his affairs. So much so that he is not even defined by any station that would indicate that he has been watching over and protecting Odysseus and his family.
What do I mean by 'Odysseus has been following an Apollonian arc'? I'm so glad you asked!
Remember Them is the last song in which Odysseus explicitly uses his sword until Mutiny where he must use it to defend himself against Eurylochus' blade. He uses it to help enact the plan to conquer Polyphemus and, due to Polites dying in that battle, Polites who wished for Odysseus to put the blade down entirely and embrace a post-war life, Odysseus also retires his sword. This is an action that symbolically separates him from Athena - and the image of Odysseus as a traditional warrior set for him in Horse and Infant - as much as My Goodbye physically separates him from the goddess and her war-ways - from this point onwards, Odysseus will no longer be leaning on Athena's wisdom or methods to solve his problems. Likewise, he will no longer be able to rely on her protection.
Odysseus thusly solves most of his upcoming problems through diplomacy and avoidance. He approaches Aeolus - a strange and ambiguous god (both in gender and in motivation) and appeals to them for help. Circe too, he approaches not with wishes to conquer or for revenge, but for the safe returning of his men and an alternate way forward. In all of these scenarios, there is some Apollonian element which is subtly interweaved alongside the influence of other gods; it is with a bow and arrows that Polyphemus' sheep is slain (and thus it is this Apollonian element which is at the root of Odysseus' spat with Poseidon), it is a vision of Penelope that warns Odysseus that his men are about to open Aeolus' wind-bag, Circe's peace offering to Odysseus is to refer him to a prophet of Apollo who has since died.
In this way, Apollo is walking alongside Odysseus for all of his journey after Athena departs - even in the Underworld, he is guiding him. It is Tiresias' proclamation that is the last straw for Odysseus, it is by the power of a mouthpiece of Apollo that Odysseus decides to embrace his ruthlessness. It is with the bow and arrow that Odysseus subdues the siren who sought to trick him, likewise, Odysseus does not attempt to undermine or escape the fate of paying Scylla's passage price - he knows of the doom about to befall the six men and quite unlike the rest of the journey until this point, he does not fight against it. This all comes to a head on Thrinacia where it is a blade which sacrifices the sun god's cow and brings destruction upon the crew once more.
My point with all of this is that when I heard the teasers for God Games years ago, it made perfect sense to me that Apollo would be Round One - he is not Odysseus' adversary and has no reason to oppose Athena's wish to free him. From other teasers about what will happen in the climax of Epic, Apollo will still be walking alongside Odysseus - it is Apollo's bow that Penelope will give the suitors to string. Likewise, it is Apollo's bow that will prove Odysseus' legitimacy and identity. That bow will be the power by which Odysseus hunts his adversaries and cleans out his palace - it is Apollo who is the avatar of Odysseus' ruthlessness, not Athena.
So tell me, truly, what was the point of having Apollo raise a non-argument in God Games? Why have him appear unconcerned, aloof and slightly oblivious? Why have him appear in his capacity as the Lord of Music at all?? And if the intention was never to make Apollo an active player in Odysseus' life like he was in the Odyssey, why keep Odysseus as a primary archer?
The answer of course is that Apollo is inextricable from the fabric of the Odyssey - his influence and favour exudes from Odysseus just as much as Athena's. In Athena's ten year sulk, it would have been Apollo who kept Telemachus and Penelope safe. It would have been Apollo protecting Odysseus from Poseidon's gaze as he travelled the seas (according to the Odyssey anyway)
Forgive me for not being excited about something that I thought was being purposefully set up. I was extremely ecstatic about all of the little Apollonian details that litter the sagas because I know where this story ends up (loosely) but all God Games did was reveal that maybe those Apollonian details were not intentional at all, but merely the ghost of the Apollo who persistently haunts those he favours, even if he cannot explicitly come to their aide in an adaptation.
#ginger rambles#apollo#odysseus#epic the musical#athena#This of course is not mentioning the whole 'in the Odyssey the suitors have been explicitly praying#for Apollo to kill Telemachus so they can have free reign and Apollo is just going 'what's that? I'm sorry I can't hear haters' thing#I'm actually so disappointed by Apollo in God Games because I truly did believe that it was leading up to Apollo and Athena#BOTH being by Odysseus' side in the end#I really like the fandom view that Apollo used the sirens as an excuse because he has nothing against Odysseus#but in order for me to give that any merit there would have needed to be something in the text itself to support that#And Apollo only has the three-four lines which like - in and of itself is crazy#I really wish Apollo and Hephaestus had full verses like Aphrodite/Ares#Or at least a back and forth like Hera#The milquetoast Apollo who is apparently upset about murder but then only took a light rebut for him back down#I'm sorry have you not seen Apollo when he's mad about murder before? He's not that reasonable I promise you#I'm just not going to talk about him being mad about the sirens specifically if I think about that too long I'll get hives#Looking very forward to when Penelope finally gets her song 😭😭😭#Cannot believe you still don't have your song debut my queen the Odysseus economy is also in shambles

Open starter; "A False Siren's call"
[ This is a starter call! Any mutuals is welcome! CRK only! ]
Note: Feel free to make any changes in the starter in your response! that include setting, or even your characters [if you are rping more than one, and so on! just do not control my own character thanks!].
Today was oddly dark, you had decided to go out on a brisk walk until you began to hear a voice that had travelled through the wind, it was singing, and oddly enough, it had power behind it, the voice seemed to be becoming you over as you could not help but to curiously make your way over to the sound,
That was when you saw it. A cookie singing to herself, alone. Did you recognize her? Regardless, the voice sounded like something that a loving mother would sing to their child if they needed to calm down...
"ᴡʜᴇɴ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛɪ���ᴇ ʜᴀꜱ ᴄᴏᴍᴇ ꜰᴏʀ ʏᴏᴜ ᴛᴏ ɢᴏ
ᴅɪᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴍᴀɴᴀɢᴇ ᴛᴏ ɢᴇᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛʜɪɴɢꜱ ʏᴏᴜ ɴᴇᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ᴋɴᴏᴡ-

ᴄᴏᴜʟᴅ ʏᴏᴜ ᴘᴀʀᴛ ᴋɴᴏᴡɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴀᴛ ʏᴏᴜ ᴅɪᴅɴ'ᴛ ɢᴇᴛ ᴀʟʟ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛᴇᴅ?

The singing died off quickly the moment she looked over and saw you staring at her, she could only see a pair of eyes from the shaded spot you were hiding in.
There was an awkward silence as she looked rather startled that you found her, her expression changed again, realizing what she must of done, it looked like she felt a bit guilty for luring you in unintentionally.
"Oh... I thought I was alone. I didn't mean to bother you."
She then looked back up to get a better look at who it was
"I know you're hiding, please show yourself, I won't hurt you."

Fire is a clean thing. Its aftermath is a mire of soot and ashes, but heat leaves no room for dirt. While a thing burns, it is pure. And then, when the burning is done, it disappears as it should. The screaming comes and goes. He listens to each wail of pain and horror; the blind animal panic of a burning hide sending everyone climbing up the melting walls. He started with one, this time. Only one. She herself was a cornucopia of teeming life. Each one precious to her worm-eaten brain. Each little life a loss she felt keenly. She howled and wound in his flame like her beloved vermin.
He has no patience for the Crawling Rot and its simpering, slavering disciples. He finds their philosophies narrow and short-sighted. He finds them unimaginative. But they so love to cling to what they obsess over, and he so loves to rip it away. The little bug he's sought to squash managed to scurry away, hissing and wailing, to whatever host she infests.
Now here comes the butcher. Wily little thing, Bertholdt thinks, that she managed to hook herself an attack dog. He admits, he should have been smarter about it. He should not have returned to the scene of his arson. The apartment complex is hollowed out like a great carcass. He has slipped past defeated firefighters and officers with relative ease. He simply looks like someone who belongs at the site of great destruction. The fireman uniform also helps.
He is turning over a molten mirror when the other announces himself. The air changes around this one, sucks up all the oxygen. A static hum. The arsonist looks over at his would-be executioner. He needn't ask. He can see the holes in his neck, where something foul and rotting has crawled in.
@hellweep says: ❛ you've made your worst mistake here. ❜
Bertholdt feels a frisson racing up his spine at the threat, prickling all the way into his nape. He straightens up and notices with relative surprise that this one is on eye level with him. He takes another drag of his cigarette, stalling perhaps to see what temperament this one has. The Slaughter has so many facets. Mindless violence, yes, yes. But it has as many shapes as there are human minds to think them up.
"Is that so? I can think of worse ones." He drones back at him. "You've been neglecting your pest control. Seems you haven't been paying attention. Bitten by the love bug, perhaps?" Bertholdt flicks the lit cigarette aside at last.

A Siren’s Lament
@powerfulplantwitch
Within the eerie mists and deep fog, in the narrow valley where the galleys and the brigs, and the carracks and the barques so often met their end, waves broke softly against the sharp rocks and licked at the sands as though desperate to escape the gloom themselves.. This winding strait, with its towering cliffs and bleak shores, was known as the Deadman’s Crossing. A place where only pirates dared enter, and only when all other paths led nowhere but the stocks, or the hangman’s noose.
And it was here that a mournful song floated on the whispering winds, echoing across the cliffs. It was no beckoning call like that of any sirens the seamen warned of. No inviting lilt of those demons of the deep, calling pirates and sailors to their graves… No.. this was a lament, a haunting and heart wrenching ballad of farewell.. A dying lament, as the young siren male lay caught between the rocks, his skin and scales torn bloody by the dagger-like stones that sliced across him, but the worst of it all… was the harpoon..
Dark iron and carved wood pierced deep into his side, caught among the rocks and keeping him trapped, as blood almost like gold itself ran in rivers down his pale skin.. and dripped solemnly into the shallows beneath him. Predators lurked in the water around him.. Eels and small sharks waiting for their share of the spoils, and crabs lingered on the sands, each one picking away at him and feasting even while he still lived.. and while he still sang his final song….

Katherine ( @malka-lisitsa ) ▌sent 64 for a starter.
"You're not Elena." The subtle expression which etched itself across Enzo's visage revealed, under no uncertain terms, that he was pleased by that fact. Briefly, his dark eyes looked up at the ceiling, then back to the brunette's face. "So, you must be Katherine, then." Interesting. With a short gesture to himself, he continued, "Lorenzo, but my friends call me Enzo. Wait, scratch that. I should say friend, singular. The rest are dead." A humorless grin flickered along Enzo's lips. "But Damon's proving a bit of a bore. Won't help me with the fact Aaron Whitmore's still alive since he's trying to be ' good ' for Elena." It might be amusing to wait and see how long that lasted. "Honestly, I'm not sure if I'll be able to remain amiable if anyone starts throwing the word forgiveness around, either." Drumming his fingers against his arm, he tacked on, "Forgiveness — the taste all but poisons my mouth."
#( song is with ears to see and eyes to hear by sleeping with sirens! )#( i know you usually write katherine pre s5 )#( and i write enzo as extremely canon divergent )#( so if you'd like to talk/plot anything out then i'm down! )#╰ ––––––– ✧ ENZO ST.

🎀 RIBBON
𝐎𝐂 𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐉𝐈 𝐀𝐒𝐊𝐒!
🎀 RIBBON - how would they fit into worlds / au's? what au's would you like to try out? what fictional world would they fit / not fit into?
MAN YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW EXCITED I WAS TO ANSWER THIS. I've been enabled. I LOVE au's so much you don't understand it. So i have many au's/variants for cherr, both with canon stuff (show variants including TFP, TFA, Shattered glass, ect) and just basic au's (fantasy, mermaid, ect) so this will be a VERY long post hehhehehe This list doesn't include Cherr's main verse (IDW post war) or her live action verse since i don't know where I'm going with that yet, as well as show variants that i have finished watching but may be added later (including : G1, The unicron trilogy and the prime wars trilogy). I included Beast wars purely because while i might not have finished the series, i already have a pretty solid idea for this variant.
Put under a read more because this is a LONG post
CANON VERSES
ALIGNED
TFP : Same backstory as her main verse. Went on a personal mission to find Optimus prime and his team, eventually finding them after crash landing on earth after her ship got caught and damaged in an asteroid storm. Crash landed in France, and had time to fix up the majority of her ship before ruining into the team while they were on a mission. The teams permanent demolitions expert since wheeljack isn't the kind to stay. The guardian to two human children, Jennie and her babysitter Vera
Rescue bots academy : Would be included as a guest teacher occasionally. She drop's in to bother Joyride (My rescue bot oc), and to give lessons on general safety business (due to her.. experience with explosives), but most of the time she just likes visiting the kids, and teaching them about niche earth things.
Robots in disguise 2015 : Travel's between earth and cybertron, spending most of her time on earth despite the opportunity to go back "home". She travel's around, and ends up coming around to occasionally bother bee and his team once she got word that he was back on the planet. Jennie is 12 and vera is 20 and in college.
CYBERVERSE
While pretty similar to her other verses, cyberverse cherry holds on a bit more to what she was like before the war. A bit more cheeky and mischievous, and just slightly more bitchy and bright. She's as can be and still holds all her normal traits, but she's also just also slightly more willing to dance the line of danger.
WAR FOR CYBERTRON
Pretty similar in terms of everything compared to her main verse. Lore accurate storewide, Cherr stays behind with elita and her team to defend cybertron and dies during the process, but her Beast wars variant would be in this verse as well.
BEAST WARS
One of the pods that fell from the maximal ship, cherr ends up adopting the form of a Galah (pink and grey cockatoo) as her alt mode. She has no original name in this verse, or if she does, no one knows what it is, instead calling her "cherry". Quick and light on her feet, she the maximals eye i the sky along with airazor, and just a BIT of a pyromaniac. [This one's iffy, since i haven't actually finished the series. Im just really attached to bird cherry]
EARTHSPARK
Fun fact! Earthspark was originally her main verse before i switched it to tfp (and then switched that to her post war IDW verse). While the same as most of her other verses in term of personality, Cherr's role is what changes the most in this one. SURE, she's still a demolitions expert, but after having given a proper chance to explore earth after the war, Cherr took it. She travels around the world as basically a tourist, keeping an eye out for any bots making trouble. She knows something's up with G.H.O.S.T, and makes an effort the make things better for the trapped cons whenever she visits any of the detention centers, even if she's breaking the rules to do it. Extra rations, gossip, general company. At one point she got roped into one of the fighting rings in France and became its champion for a year or two before busting out. She's on a personally fueled vendetta to find and shut down any ring she can.
TFA
A singer high on the charts who's mysteriously gone missing. Early on in her life, cherry took rossana under her wing, and taught her everything she knew. She holds no preference for sides, a true neutral in this verse. However, something happed, and she fled the planet. She lives in hiding on earth, having stolen some tech and making herself a holoform projector, continuing her music career there. Constantly mistaken for an Autobot.
LOST LIGHT
Instead of staying on cybertron and finding work in the body guarding business, the moment rodimus sent out the invite to join the crew, cherr jumped at the chance. In this verse, she's practically the same as her main, since this is a bit of an "alternate timeline" thing, but she does have more chances to find cool spots to herself. She wander's around a lot, unless she's at swerve's or mirage's. [Haven't actually finished the MTMTE/LL comics, so things may change later on who knows]
SHATTERED GLASS
This is the verse where she's the most different in every sense. She starts out the same of course, minus her paintjob, which instead of pink white and blue, is dark grey purple and red. But over the years, especially during her music career, she gets twisted. A Yearning to be known, to be loved, adored. In this verse, many of the rumors about her in her normal verse ARE true. Yes, she purposefully killed her producer, and yes, her vocal mod is illegal. In this verse, instead of merely projecting her voice, her voice is able to lure in most bots that hear it like a siren, cue the alias (although, whether or not it'll affect a bot, changes on their amount of will, as well as a few other factors). She never left Cybertron in this verse, and thus has a modified version of her design during the contract. Siren in confident and a flirt and just a bit of a pyromaniac, but also cruel to those who earn her displeasure. Her collections are a bit more... morbid here. Your safe really, as long as she likes you enough
AU'S
DECEPTICON
Au where Cherr never got into the music industry, and thus, learning about the war earlier in this verse, joined the side of the cons. She's an under cover spy within the autobot ranks, due to her deceivingly sweet nature. An amazing liar, with many skill's acquired from the streets and unlost during her (non-existent) career, the femme is not one to be underestimated. Due to not having entered the contract, All of her mods are illegally acquired, and her name changed. Here she isnt cherrybomb, no. Here she's known as Incandescence, but most call her Des.
HUMAN/SPECIES SWAP
Cheryl Benoit. An orphan adopted and raised by her parents, Reyna and Richard. A good life to the beginning on her life, after having been offered a music contract a year of two after graduating, Cheryl, unaware of the consequences, accepted only to be roped into an abusive contract. After a fire burned down the main studio, the girl took her chance, and is currently on the run, travelling the world with some other worldly femme (Swap au Thalia, who's a transformer in this verse)
MERFOLK
In an au where cybertronians aren't really aliens at all, and instead an advanced species that live deep in the earth's oceans. I have three variants for this au in terms of designs. 1) the classic mermaid, with human upper halves. Simple and basic. 2) Where still human-ish, merfolk are more alien in nature. Extra limbs, unatural eyes and skin colors, antenna's and coming in variant sizes. (An offshoot of this is a mer versions of the classic cybertronian softbody art style). And finally 3) Where ocean living, cybertronians are still somewhat mechanical. In this au, cherr's story has many variants, but the current fav is one where she's captured by humans, and her voice is used at entertainment at a classy exotic restaurant.
FANTASY
Simple fantasy setting? Cherr is definitely a fairy of some kind. Delicate, but also with her own genre of danger. Able to change sizes due to magic. Pink little gal. Not much on this au in general yet other then the very basic concept.
FAIRYTALE
A story of a simple maiden girl, married into a lavish life against her wishes, who runs away to become a knight. Not much on this au in general yet other then the very basic concept.
CRYPTID
Montserous in nature at first glance, cherr is hard to spot. A creature of flames and embers, who's crackling voice is rumored to lure human's to dance around her form, to revel in an prison like happiness. She doesn't mean harm, just for friendship. Nevertheless, if you're ever to spot a mysterious flame like glow moving around the dark, paired with enchanting songs that seems to seep into your thoughts. Do not follow it. Cover your ears and hide. [She doesnt really trap those, but many of the friends she have gained are ones who have run away from home, or a bad situation and never seen again, and well. Rumors spread]

Life hack : if you, like me, hate the taste of emergen-c, add it to lemonade instead of just water. It actually tastes decent that way.
#i can't even say it with a straight face • ooc#( i had damn well better not be getting sick we are ALMOST HOME )#( i say almost. Next monday. But after so long that does feel like 'almost' so! )#( anyway. I'm going back to the multi and ignoring the siren song of another verse for mazie. )#( if im not careful she'll con me into another dustverse as well )

BEEP - Oron
TEXTS || ACCEPTING || @musesbykai
[ There are no rules and I keep thinking about Cyberpunk Oron and Taryn if Smasher wasn't already in the picture with her so I'm combining two texts. ]
4. A late night text + 25. A flirty text
----- WHY wasn't she sending this text to Diego or some other man in her life? Well, put simply, she didn't trust their answers, and she knew very well that Diego wouldn't take the question seriously. So, there was only one real option she could attempt to get a legitimate answer from.
[TEXT]: Hey [TEXT]: I know this is random and late but I need an answer from an honest guy [IMAGE FILE ATTACHED.]
She had sent Oron a fairly straight forward picture of herself, definitely dolled up and looking like she was going on some date with a member of the upper echelon in the city. He didn't need to know that the sexy black dress that was slit all the way up to her hip and exposed her leg was a little number from her Arasaka days, he just needed to give an honest man's opinion.
[TEXT]: I'm supposed to be seducing a data shard out of some sleaze's pocket tonight and I don't know if I look jaw-dropping enough [TEXT]: So I need honest thoughts from a man's perspective

ok this is the blog where i stop being respectable so.
Speak Now has and always will be a nostalgic album for me so i will never be able to hate it and tbqh Mine tv did make me tear up bc of nostalgia
patrick stump eats blondie ALIVE on electric touch vocally speaking and i love that he still gets to do the Final Chorus Fuck It We Ball additional vocal track on this
ppl are saying he wasn’t needed on electric touch but every song needs more patrick stump. did u consider that.
#lulu dot text#and also it IS taylor's song and it was not advertised as a duet#it was FEATURING him. he had a guest verse and sang like a siren in the bg he did exactly what he needed to#and tbqh? hayley was featured just as much on her vault track

;; Lol, the different vibes in the most significant Hunter threads I have going.
Canon Hunter: “Oh, I’m sorry. I’ll just stay out of the way and try not to bother you. Didn’t mean to wake you up. Sorry.” ☹️
Siren Verse Hunter: “Don’t touch me, I’m dying— Oh, wait, there’s a monster in the water, let me protect you! Oh, no! I’m sorry, I panicked and hit you on accident! I’m such a failure..!” 😫
Half-Gorgon Verse Hunter: “Can we just not do this today..? I’m tired and don’t want to fight. Please can everybody just go home and leave me alone with my self-loathing..?” 😒
Werewolf Verse Hunter: “Oh, look at me. I’m the family screw-up again. Sorry I’m wasting space, I’ll just be over here like a good dog.” 😓
Human Verse Hunter: “I’m about to ruin this witch’s whole career.” 😈
#;; the golden boy (hunter)#;; boot camp and mischief (human verse)#;; golden scales and a mournful song (siren verse)#;; hated son of the gorgon (myth verse)#;; a lonely howl unanswered (werewolf verse)
