I have a very important question for ya'll.

Was Achilles a top or a bottom?

I have been debating with my friend on this one for awhile and need expert opinions.

GODLY PARENT PEOPLE ARE MORE DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH THAN MACHINES.

"Hera is usually represented seated on a throne, holding a pomegranate in one hand and a sceptre surmounted by a cuckoo in the other. She appears as a calm, dignified matron of majestic beauty, robed in a tunic and mantle, her forehead is broad and intellectual, her eyes large and fully opened, and her arms dazzlingly white and finely moulded. Her principal temples were at Argos and Samos. From a remote period she was greatly venerated at Olympia, and her temple there, which stood in the Altis or sacred grove, was five hundred years older than that of Zeus on the same spot. Some interesting excavations which are now going on there have brought to light the remains of the ancient edifice, which contains among other treasures of antiquity several beautiful statues, the work of the famous sculptors of ancient Greece. At first this temple was built of wood, then of stone, and the one lately discovered was formed of conglomerate of shells."

So...here's how I imagined Achilles and Patroclus to look like.

Made on artbreeder

First off, we got Achillesssssss:

He gave me, 'golden boy' vibes. Most people in Ancient Greece, had dark hair. So, Achilles's bright blonde curls definitely stood out amongst them. And that's why I accentuated on the golden-ness of his hair.

Next, we got our boy, Patroclus:

By the first look of this, you can tell I used Louis Partridge for inspo. Honestly, if Song Of Achilles ever had a movie, Louis would do so well as Patroclus. Anyways, Patroclus's POV gave me some melancholy vibes. So, I definitely tried putting some hints of that onto his expression.

i was really bored and this is really shitty but tbh im kinda proud of this

(And I'm gonna share it with the little ppl)

Myth Aesthetic (1/?): Aphrodite, Goddess of Love, Beauty and War

"Of Kythereia, born in Kypros, I will sing. She gives kindly gifts to men: smiles are ever on her lovely face, and lovely is the brightness that plays over it. Hail, goddess, queen of well-built Salamis and sea-girt Kypros; grant me a cheerful song. And now I will remember you and another song also."

- Homeric Hymn 10 to Aphrodite

“aphrodite, goddess of love

Aphrodite is the goddess of love, desire and beauty.

In addition to her natural gifts she has a magical girdle that compels anyone she wishes to desire her.

There are two accounts of her birth. One says she is the daughter of Zeus and Dione. The other goes back to when Cronus castrated Uranus and tossed his severed genitles into the sea. Aphrodite then arose from the sea foam on a giant scallop and walked to shore.”
