So there was a french animated film about the friendship between Icarus and the Minotaur last year and I was supposed to hear about it on the bird app?
I mean it’s literally not streaming anywhere yet nor does it have a home media release at this time but I would like to get hyped in hopes of one of those things happening eventually.
It has a good style! I would like to see the tragedy!
#icarus#the minotaur#minotaur#asterion#king minos#french film#movie#icare#theseus#ariane#the reviews are fairly mid and i do not care#let. them. be. friends.#greek mythology#if they're both doomed by the narrative then let them serve their time together

Flight of Icarus lore dump:
Part 2 | Character List
- Eddie is a barback at the Hideout (rundown bar) where his band plays sometimes. He doesn’t sell drugs until the end. At 18, he moves in permanently with Wayne and starts dealing to help with the bills.
- Lots of people in town call Eddie “Junior” for his likeness to his dad and he hates this. He calls himself Junior condescendingly when he’s doing something that lives up to his dad’s criminal reputation.
- Steddie writers, when Wayne is conveniently absent from the trailer, he’s not always at work. He goes to a bar called the Attic on Fridays with guys that Eddie considers nice and upstanding.
- Eddie lives alone in his dad's house, but throughout his life, he’d stay with Wayne when Al disappeared. The first time, Eddie was 8, he fell asleep by the window waiting while he was left for days with little food until Wayne got him. At the start of the book, Eddie’s 18 and has been there alone for months. Wayne checks on him and brings him food. But Eddie is stubbornly independent, since 3rd grade he thought he could take care of himself.
- Eddie likes metal, but also rock, Chicago blues, country and bluegrass bc of his mom. His dad taught him guitar, but he learned to love music through his mom (Elizabeth Munson neé Franklin), who passed when he was 6. He still listens to her records, mostly Muddy Waters. He has memories standing on her feet dancing to that record. It brings him to tears once.
- Eddie’s dad Al is charismatic, Eddie calls it Munson Magic but doesn’t think he has it. “I inherited his hair, his van, and his guitar picks. But nobody’s loving Eddie Munson on sight.” Still, Eddie’s worst fear is being like his dad. Al only shows up to manipulate Eddie into helping him with schemes. Two of which get Eddie held at gunpoint twice and hit in the head with a shotgun. Al screws ppl over and gets their house burned down, with Eddie’s mom’s records.
#please steddie writers let wayne go to the club#definitely gonna do a part 2 there’s so much#eddie munson#flight of icarus#wayne munson#stranger things#al munson#flight of icarus spoilers#mp

thinking abt how azi was truly crowley's sunlight through the millenniums. like, here's this demon who didn't mean to fall, who just asked questions and deep down he was still so good. and he is alone, he's the literally the emboidement of the first sin, and NOT by his own choosing. he's so alone and afraid and just wants a real conversation w someone, even if its an angel who'll most likely hate him. and here's the guardian of eden, who gave away his sword, that GOD gave to him, without asking a single question, to help the humans under his charge and he's kind to crowley and crowley is utterly fascinated. zira is basically the first protector, not only to adam and eve BUT CROWLEY TOO. he protects crowley from the first rain bc he's so fundamentally good and kind and crowley can't help seeking him out over the years. when they meet in rome, c is obviously far more withdrawn and angry bc of the things he's seen and was forced to do and there's az again, so happy to see him and even inviting him to dinner. everytime they met, even when crowley was saving azira, he also saved crowley by the simple act of being his friend.
#sunlight by hozier is literally this but with fancy words#no like UGH i don't know how to articulate this properly cause it's so much more than azi being kind to crowley. its being the only person#to see him. to truly know him and see thru the walls he built up and yes crowley may have been the one to seek him out and save him but#aziraphale LET him do it and never treated him with anything other than an equal and azi gave him a chance when nobody else did and UGHH#it most have meant so much to crowley after hell's cruelty#like i really do believe the simple fact that azi was unbashedly himself around him meant far more to crowley than empty kindness#EACH DAY YOU'D RISE W ME KNOW THAT I'D GLADLY BE THE ICARUS TO UR CERTAINTY OH MY SUNLIGHT SUNLIGHT SUNLIGHT#STRAP A WING TO ME DEAD TRAP CLAD HAPPILY WITH WAX MELTED I'D MEET THE SEA UNDER SUNLIGHT SUNLIGHT SUNLIGHT#ineffable husbands#good omens#good omens s2#azicrow#good omens season 2#aziraphale#crowley#hozier

yknow what i absolutely love about dghda? how socially unaware all the former blackwing subjects are. like these guys have no clue what to do in normal society and that absolutely makes sense
dirk is the most well adjusted out of all of the ones we know of and even he climbs into this random guy's apartment through the window, immediately calls him his assistant and then declares that he lives there now. he's clueless. he wants friends but he doesn't know how to talk to people, even after 16 years lived in freedom
and then there's bart and the rowdy 3
bart doesn't know how radios and tvs work, nor what hotels are. all she's known her whole life is blackwing labs and the fact that she's supposed to kill people. so that's what she does. she doesn't know how to talk to people, she just goes with the flow
and of course the rowdy 3, the absolute icons. unlike dirk, who wants to be a part of society, and bart, who really doesn't care, they actively reject social norms. they saw punk culture and ran with it. they're rude, violent and, well, rowdy. and they like that. but they're also stupid in the way that you would be if you grew up in a lab with (probably) next to no real education. none of them have any functioning braincells or social grace and that works for them
i didn't talk about mona or francis/moloch bc we don't really have a real frame of reference for either of them. mona is an inanimate object 99% of the time and francis has been in a coma for several decades
#dghda#dirk gently's holistic detective agency#dirk gently#bart curlish#the rowdy three#the rowdy 3#let's be clear amanda has the monopoly on the rowdy 3's braincells#martin gets it every other tuesday but the rest are clueless all the time#project icarus#project marzanna#project incubus#blackwing#project blackwing#head empty no thoughts

Hello I would like to remind everyone that the first (technically second if you wanna get really technical but who cares) thing we heard from fable was
"Release Me,
You are free of Enderian, now focus on purpose"
Directed at Icarus
"Now focus on your purpose"????? WHAT HAPPENED TO "HI" "HELLO" "HOW ARE YOU MY SON"
BECAUSE NEWSFLASH SIR THAT'S NOT HOW YOU TALK TO YOUR FUCKING CHILD
THEY AREN'T A FUCKING ROBOT TO TAKE AND CARRY OUT YOUR ORDERS THAT'S YOUR GODDAMN KID!
PEOPLE TREATED SEVEN WITH MORE FAMIARITY AND RESPECT
no offense to seven great guy rip man BUT STILL
Anyway on to actual analysis
After reading this note, several deductions can be made about our antagonist's character right off the bat, which in season 3 we see to be accurate assumptions
First of all the sending of the note "release me" constantly at the beginning of every reset presumably for the past several ones gives us a base line of a few things A) whoever wrote it is trapped B) they really want out C) whomever was to recive the note presumably can help with this D) this person is either very angry and resorting to formal wording as a form of passive aggression or they are simply a very formal person Had this not been the case they would have written "let me out" or "get me out" or even "help me"
Now for the post-corruption portion
"You are free of Enderian"
1) this person knows Enderian 2) This person knows at least of Icarus 3) They intentionally have been sending these to Icarus 4) despite being trapped they have some way to know what is going on 5) their particular view of Enderian is not favorable it's not overtly antagonistic however this is the one part of the not that can be read as at least partially sympathetic to Icarus
Finally "Now focus on your purpose"
1) they don't see Icarus as anything but a means to an end 2) tone wise it feels like both the chastisement of a child and an order to an unthinking being 3) "your purpose" seemingly refers to the prior statement of "release me" either implying that the writer believes Icarus is only here to get them out of wherever they are or that Icarus's sole purpose in life is to aid and assist them and 4) the use of "now" after the previous statement implies they view the corruption arc as simply something that was inhibiting the progression of them being let out
First off once again SIR THAT IS YOUR CHILD YOU MOTHERFUCKER-
In conclusion deductions that can be made from this note with the knowledge that i now hold are as follows: Fable wanted out of purgatory, they issued Icarus with the fulfillment of this task and saw the corruption arc as merely a speed bump on the road of getting his ass outta there. Fable is a pretentious douchebag. Like everyone else in his life Fable is constantly using his own son as a means to achieving his end goal.
Other notes:
Had Fable's motivations not been his underlying obsession with keeping what he believes is "his" even when it disrupts and disregards the rules of the universe and the sanctity of life he likely wouldn't have given 2 shits about Icarus.
If we view Fable's interactions with others through the lense of him thinking of those of the overworld as "his" his people his creations his world then it starts to become clearer that he only sees individuals as tools and for their potential usefulness to him. And if we want to take this view even further we could even say that he at least on some level viewed Alerion giving a place for his deceased mortals to restate something akin to how a child views their sibling stealing a toy from their room, which then implies that the war of the gods is just a big temper tantrum where Fable hurt his brother then his other siblings stepped in and went "hey woah man not cool you can hit Al dude he is literally just playing the game" to which Fable's response was to hurt them as well and now he's just got out of timeout and basically started blaming his parents for everything wrong in his life which is so silly goofy of him until you remember that these were people he was upset about his brother "stealing" from him and it becomes less silly goofy.
"But Lilly!" I hear you say because you've totally read this far, mhm definitely "If he doesn't actually care about the dead people, then why does he act nice? Why is his charisma stat so high?" Well to that I say is it easier to keep someone in one spot when you make them believe this is where they wanna be or when they know the whole truth?
#someone take my Tumblr privileges#why is this so fucking long#and how have i not made this post before??#once again#thank you for coming to my ted talk#fable when i get you fable#i have hated this man since before we knew for sure that he sent that note because deep down i knew and i wasn't gonna let that slide#Icarus deserves better#so much better#also apologies for how discombobulated this might be i had like 4 separate trains of thought while writing this#so idk how coherent it is#fable smp

I’ve…basically got college admissions all squared away and got in touch with the disability office (very early but well. with anxiety and adhd and chronic health at play kinda have to for my own sanity and keeping on-track) and…this will actually prolly be possible this time??
…also not sure what I’m gonna do with myself. Y’know when a lifted stressor can leave ya feeling a bit…unmoored? Mm. That.
#tiger’s musings#let’s be icarus#mental health bullshit#glass wrists#…I do need to fill out the Disability Form I was sent.#and see if the ONE (1) academic advising slot for this month is even still open. as I only get to see one month at a time#but…yeah.#hell. maybe I won’t even have to worry about housing yet if I can get everything online#…depends on well. where their choir rehearsals meet. but still#but…maybe by the time august? september? rolls around…my flareups will be less of an issue#since I’ll have been on humira for Several Months by that point + Not In Dead Of Winter

it's thinking about qpr prison duo hours
#im on the swing#and im thinking about them#just. i think centross - esp in regards to qpr prison duo - would be the *only* person Icarus ever lets touch their wings#i think centross has this long list of fun pet names for ic; and ic just. doesnt. ic calls hims 'asshole' or 'centross' and thats it (/hj)#i think centross liked to put little braids into Icarus' hair#and i think centross would make sure ic know how much he loved them.#and i think ic would always find a way to refute that and Centross would find a way to refute the refute#and. i think centross absolutely put his cape/cloak around Icarus more than once on a bad day - and just kinda held em there gently#i think Icarus had a little nest somewhere in the wolftross house#sherbertquake56#icarus morningstar#prison duo#fable smp#fsmp#a tag to help find my own posts

I bet Icarus is ganna think about the conversation they had with Rae a lot when they find out about Enderian's death, about how Enderian was trying to be a mom to Rae, was trying to be better, about how Rae almost had what Icarus had even if it was tainted,
About how their dad took even that chance from Rae, even if they hated Enderian, and probably would never stop, she was still something, for Rae.
about how once again they hurt Rae, about how they couldnt stop, becuase it couldn't be Fable's fault, how could it be? it was always Icarus's
#i think about the delirious rae and icarus conversation and I wonder how icarus is goimg to feel about it now with the light that rae doesnt#have it anymore- will they let themselves feel bad for rae? or will it just add to the pile of things they dont let themselves feel#will they try to convince themself fable did it to protect them once and for all? try to convince themself enderians death was neccersery#and will that make them feel worse- becuase if it was done for them- how could it /not/ be their fault?#fable smp#fsmp#fin speaks

#icarus speaks#flying home today ^_^ let’s see if tsa can keep its streak#he was a very chill guy. cleary has the spirit and is trying his best#i just think that phrasing is so funny
