I think, perhaps one of the funniest things to come from EPIC popularising the Odyssey is that now a ton of people think Poseidon wanted to kill Odysseus.
In the Odyssey, Poseidon has no intention of killing Odysseus. In fact, part of the whole reason Zeus lets Poseidon do whatever he wants even though he thinks Odysseus is rad and should get to kiss his wife is explicitly because Poseidon had no intentions of killing Odysseus. Poseidon wanted to pay back the suffering/inconvenience blinding Polyphemus would have caused. It's a really abstract thing tbh. How do you pay back someone permanently disabling your son? Poseidon's solution was just to amputate Odysseus from his other half; i.e. Penelope. The end game was never murder, it was always an endurance race.

(Od. Book 1: Zeus reassuring Athena that he is not, in fact, a part of Odysseus Hater-Nation. Trans. Robert Fagles)
Also, for those wondering if there's any sort of in text reason for why Poseidon wasn't around in God Games - at the time in the Odyssey when Athena petitions Zeus to let Odysseus leave Calypso's island, Poseidon was -checks notes- on vacation in Ethiopia. Yep. He left to Ethiopia for a festival and thusly was very much absent for Athena's whole "please let Ody go? Please? 🥺" request.

(Od. Book 1: While Odysseus was suffering, Poseidon went to party in the east)
I am begging y'all to read the Odyssey. It's a comedy for everyone except Odysseus and Penelope who are, in fact, suffering 24/7 365.
#ginger rambles#ginger chats about greek myths#Sorry for the quality of the quotes but I'm too tired to google a pdf vers of the Odyssey and then edit those so y'all are getting#my crunchy pictures from one of my physical copies of the book lol#it's reiterated multiple times that Poseidon doesn't want Odysseus dead too#he is literally just driving him mad on the ocean because that's what Odysseus condemned Polyphemus to by blinding him#Also there's no good way to mention this but the Odyssey starts#by Zeus lamenting how mortals blame all their troubles and miseries on the gods when that's just not fair#because the gods go out of their way to warn the mortals that will be saddled with the most wretched fates#and they ignore the gods and do whatever they want anyway LMFAO#It's a really smart way to tie in the whole Orestes plot that would have wrapped up in between Odysseus getting stranded on Ogygia#and Odysseus getting off of Ogygia#epic the musical#epic the wisdom saga#zeus#athena#odysseus#poseidon#the odyssey

the Christmas toons are soooo jealous of regular toons. “I wish I was half of the person that you were” type beat.

I wish I was afforded the complexity, the personhood, the capability that you have. I wish I was half the person you are.



All I am is a one note character. You have the opportunity to be more, while I have to sit by the wayside and just let myself rot in this stale caricature of a person.
All the toons are alive, and that means that they can grow, they can become more than what the show originally casted them as - but the Christmas toons only have a sliver of that chance because they’re only there for barely a month at a time.

I don't think Drift would be able to tell the gingers apart well, but all he'd have to do is yell 'SOME-' and Roddy at the top of his lungs yells back 'BODY' with overwhelming sheer joy and the force of a million stars and Drift just goes 'oh yeah there he is' and picks him up v gently. This, of course, means that all the other bots almost get bodied by the sheer force that is Roddy being happy over teaching Drift a meme. Imagine what it would be like if it was something even funnier and more joyful than just that happened.
LMAO
Deadlock: Hey Rod?
Roddy: YEAH?? >:D
Every other Cybertronian:
#Roddy teaching Deadlock what the concept of Rickroll is and Deadlock is like omg another ginger#lol#mecha th#mecha dr th#tf mecha universe

Candy Witch didn’t actually eat Hansel and Gretel and they lied abt her trying to do so to the point where it got written into the Storybook of Legends: boring. stereotypical. shys away from one of the most interesting dynamics possible. only done to make us sympathize w Ginger when she became a narrator.
Candy Witch DID try to eat Hansel and Gretel and leaned full send into her destiny but still genuinely cares about her daughter and accepts her decision to rebel because she wants Ginger to love something the way she loves her magic: amazing. interesting. parallels Ginger’s relationship to her mom to Raven and shows how her mother could have been a good mom while still being a bad person.
#the class of classics were traditionalists who were full believers in destiny and leaned into more than their predecessors#and i will DIE ON THE HILL#ever after high#eah#ginger breadhouse#the candy witch#candy witch#<what was ginger’s moms name?😭#anyway YEAH#raven met ginger’s mom and got weirded out by her#but imagine if she was in ginger’s book and saw how the candy witch treated her daughter#KNOWING that the candy witch was a villain on par with her own mother#and seeing that yeah she was right it really is that easy to put your child above your own ideals about the world

there should`ve been an episode where ethan accidentally shrank angel and got him stuck in a snowglobe, and every time drusilla felt like it, she shook the snowglobe violently with a cute giggle: "oopsie, sorry!"
#it happened every 10 minutes#she deserves such a treat#and he deserves the treatment of the fish in nemo by that ginger girl#inspired by me having such strong feelings towards angel#what type of feelings i won`t elaborate#btvs#buffy the vampire slayer#drusilla btvs#angel btvs#ethan rayne
