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.
Tumblr media
(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.

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

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.

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!"
