nasty faggotses........
WHYY IS HOMOPHOBIC SMEAGOL IN MY INBOX
was looking at "The Challenge" from the Ithaca Saga again in the living room when my mom comes up at the line "I'd rather die than go home without the best of you" and is like:
"what if it's not the best of him that comes home?"
and that got me thinking. because like. it's not the best of ody that comes home. it's a version of him that has killed and sacrificed and chosen to be ruthless and is a self-proclaimed monster. he beats up gods and gives up the life of his brother-in-law. he admits it himself; he's not sure penelope will accept him because he knows it's not him that's coming back. he's begging her to fall in love with him again.
and yet she looks under all of what he's done and sees who he really is. he's still the person she met, the man she fell in love with. she doesn't even deny that he's done what he's said he'd done, she's saying she'll love him anyways because at the core of all of that he's still him. he's still hers. she believes everything he's done is out of love for her and their son and that's the best version of him that she knows. he is someone who is absolutely devoted to his family and the people he loves, and she has such confidence in that thought that she hates to hear him ask if she'll fall in love with him again.
because why would she need to when the best of him is standing in front of her eyes?
officially the best line in The Odyssey
DUVETBOX!!!!!!! WHAT IS THIS?!?!!!
Odysseus is best dad
Okay this is kinda a stupid thought I had once I got over the craziness of Odysseus.
All the like middle aged men are dead cuz of the war except for the weak and cowardly
And now Odysseus has killed all the suitors which was basically all the younger men of Ithaca. Plus some faraway princes and such
So in doing that he basically made Telemachus the most eligible bachelor in all of Ithaca and the neighboring kingdom.
His first day as a dad and he’s already wingmaning his son
Starfall - Part 3
PREV - DONE
ITS DONE AHHHHHHHHHHHHH, man this one's been in progress since like November? Between getting a part-time job, commissions, and life stuff, this one took awhile! But I'm so happy with how it turned out!
Thank you everyone for your support (and patience) on my first comic project!!! And your support thus far with this AU in general-I got more comic ideas planned so I can't wait to work on the next one!
As a little bonus, how did Anthea get that giant chalk board down?
They who shall free The One Who Waits everyone.
Yes.
"Odysseus" showed us how much Ody has truly changed.
He's compared to almost all monsters in the musical during that one song.
His name's chanting is the same as Polyphemus', and he acts a little like him when he decides to kill everyone.
Po - ly - phe - mus ("Enough")
O - dy - sse - us ("I. Have had. Enough")
He aims for the torches just like Scylla.
"Eurylochus, light up six torches"
"Keep your head down he's aiming for the torches"
He rejected forgivness just like Poseidon did.
"Maybe you could learn to forgive..."
"No"
"Old king our leader's dead. You've destroyed the serpent's head. Now the rest of us are no longer a threat. Old king forgive us instead, so that no more blood is shed. Let's have open arms instead!"
"No."
Also, there's an electric guitar in the song. It represents Odysseus' cunning and ruthless nature.
He IS a monster. But that's what got him home. And he'll embrace this side of him.
they consume my every waking thought
