Just saw a dragon prince post that was literally just "the writers seem kinda toxic for not confirming weather or not my ship will be canon again or not :/"
I am BEGGING YALL to stop pinning your mental health on show writers and runner, like literally begging you
Cause to me it seems kinda toxic to form a parasocial relationship with a cartoon writer
Also like, ya know being canon isn't the end all be all of shipping right? Like, yeah it feels good when your favs are canon but they don't fucking have to be lmao
#i dont watch vbros because i think monarch a troi is ACTUALLY canon#monarch a troi is just the happy meal toy i got when getting into vbros

I just got a HC that MC learning human worls history and them just learning rhat Beelzebub probably caused some plagues and that Lucifer was the presodent of a country or a monarch and MC just going to the brothers like
"You dickheads"
Oh there is so much potential for these guys to be responsible for all kinds of stuff from human history. I love the idea of Lucifer being like I’m bored and going to the human world, replacing the monarch of some country with himself, and just ruling it for a while.
I mean the boys have been demons for a while in the OG I really can’t believe that they haven’t spent some time messing with humanity. I’d be like okay come clean tell me how much chaos you’ve caused throughout human history, please.
I do see Beel feeling bad about starting a plague though. Like it was probably an accident. And MC is just scolding him like do you know how many humans died??
Personally, I think Asmo was probably involved in the Helen of Troy incident. And I like to think Satan was part of the French Revolution. And you know Mammon was there for the Boston Tea Party like they were protesting taxes lol. I kinda like the idea that they only need to be there for their sin to be felt and affect people. Maybe they didn’t start anything specific but things got more intense just because they were there.
But I could also see them deliberately causing problems for the human world. They are demons after all.
#and you know MC is gonna call them out on it#obey me#obey me nightbringer#obey me lucifer#obey me beelzebub#anon asks#misc answers

And if you wish to hear what was the fate
Of Priam, I must tell you. When he sees
How the city has fallen and how the doors of his palace
Are smashed and broken into, and how the Greeks
Are in the innermost chambers of his home,
The aged king takes up the royal armor
So long unused by him, and puts it on
His trembling old man shoulders, and girds himself
With his useless sword, to send himself to death,
Helpless old man, against the crowding foe.
In the atrium in the middle of the palace,
That was open to the vault of the heavens above,
There was a great altar, and over it, leaning,
An ancient laurel tree that with its shade
Embraced protectively the household gods.
Here's Hecuba and with her are her daughters,
Huddled together like doves sheltering in vain
From the black winds of the storm that drove them there,
And clutching in their hands the sacred icons.
But when she sees her husband Priam wearing
The armor he had worn when he was young,
Hecuba cries out to him, 'My husband,
My poor husband, what are you thinking of,
That you have put on this armor and carry these weapons?
Even if Hector were here, this is no longer
A time for such as these. Come here, with me,
Take shelter at this altar. It will protect us.
If not, this is the place where we will all,
All of us together, die together.'
These were her words as she drew him close to her,
And helped him to a seat before the shrine.
But suddenly there's one of Priam's sons,
Polites, fleeing through a hail of arrows
From Pyrrhus's slaughter, and running through the halls
And empty courtyards of the palace to
The atrium where Priam was, and Pyrrhus
Hot on his heels and hot to butcher him,
And going to do so now; and Polites falls
And his life pours out of him in streams of blood
Before the eyes of his father and his mother.
And though already in the hands of death
Priam cries out in rage in his old man voice:
'If anywhere there's righteousness in heaven,
May the deities pay you back for what you do,
Your obscene crime, polluting a father's face
With what it has to see, his own son's slaughter.
Achilles, whose son you pretend to be, did not
Behave like this. He paid the due respect
To a father's supplication and sent back home
The body of Hector to its tomb, and sent
Me home unharmed.'
And, saying this, with all
His strength he hurled his spear at Pyrrhus, and
It made its harmless way toward Pyrrhus's shield
And struck with a tinkling sound, and bobbing hung
Purposelessly from the boss of the shield; and Pyrrhus
Says to him,
'Then go down there below,
And take this news about me to my father,
And be sure to tell him all about his son,
Degenerate Pyrrhus, and his despicable deeds.'
And as he says these words he drags old Priam,
Trembling and shaking and slipping in the blood
That was pouring out of the body of his son,
To the high altar; and there he clutches him by
The hair with his left hand and with his right hand
Raises his glittering sword, and plunges it in,
Up to the hilt, into his side.
That was fated for him––fated to see the fires
Consuming his Troy, and the Pergamum fall down,
He who had been monarch of Asia, the ruler
Of so many lands and tribes, a huge, headless,
Body upon the shore, a nameless trunk.
the death of priam in the aeneid, book 2, translated by david ferry

masterpost of boe name references/sources
I really wanted to make a post about the names of certain (and by certain I mean Wake, We Suffer, Crown Him with Many Crowns, and Unjust Hope) BoE members because I’m
a) a huge-ass nerd who loves doing research and
b) super fascinated by all Tazmuir’s references so here goes nothing lmao
(If we get any of the other names in full, I’ll add them here too!)
First on the docket: Griddle’s mom (has got it going on). Wake’s name has been pretty thoroughly “decrypted,” for lack of a better word, so I’m just going to compile it all here for funsies.
Awake Remembrance of These Valiant Dead Kia Hua Ko Te Pai Snap Back to Reality Oops There Goes Gravity
Awake Remembrance of These Valiant Dead
A reference to Shakespeare’s Henry V, Act I, Scene II. For context: in the scene, Henry demands to know if his claim to the French throne is legitimate. His advisors, the Bishops of Ely and Canterbury and 2 other nobles (Exeter and Westmoreland), state that it is, and encourage him to pursue war with France, reminding him of the glory of his ancestors, “the former lions of [his] blood” (I.II. sorry I don’t have line numbers!)
ELY
Awake remembrance of these valiant dead
And with your puissant arm renew their feats:
You are their heir; you sit upon their throne;
The blood and courage that renowned them
Runs in your veins; and my thrice-puissant liege
Is in the very May-morn of his youth,
Ripe for exploits and mighty enterprises.
EXETER
Your brother kings and monarchs of the earth
Do all expect that you should rouse yourself,
As did the former lions of your blood.
Kia Hua Ko Te Pai
A reference to Aotearoa’s (New Zealand’s) national anthem, in te reo (Maori), “E Ihowā Atua.” The line translates as “may/let goodness flourish.”
Snap Back to Reality Oops There Goes Gravity
you better LOSE YOURSELF IN THE MUSIC THE MOMENT YOU OWN IT YOU BETTER NEVER LET IT GO (OH)
Moving on! We Suffer under the cut (pun not intended but I’m sorry this is so text-heavy!)
We Suffer and We Suffer
We Suffer and We Suffer
(Likely) a reference to Robert Fagles’ translation of Aeschylus’s Agamemnon. The line, as Fagles translates it, is “but Justice turns the balance scales, sees that we suffer and we suffer and we learn” (250-1).
For context: A watchman waits for a signal confirming a Greek victory in Troy. He laments his boredom and the current state of Mycenae and the House of Atreus, and complains of Clytemnestra, Agamemnon’s wife, and her apparent lack of femininity: “She in whose woman's breast beats heart of man” (I.I.still no fucking line numbers!), not knowing of her plot to kill Agamemnon as he returns home from war, in revenge for his sacrifice of their daughter Iphigenia for favorable winds to sail for Troy. The chorus then enters, and praises the gods while catching everyone up on the story thus far, including Agamemnon’s sacrifice of Iphigenia at the behest of Calchas, the seer.
(If interested in Iphigenia’s story, check out Iphigenia in Aulis by Euripides.)
It’s also worth keeping in mind that Agamemnon is the first play in a series of three by Aeschylus, the Oresteia, which details the murder of Agamemnon and its fallout, the downfall of the House of Atreus and the end of its curse, and thematically discusses questions of justice, retaliation, and revenge. Very apropos.
Note: the translation of this line, as far as I’ve dug (so not super far), seems to be specific to Fagles. Other translators of Agamemnon, such as Anne Carson and E.D.A Morshead translate it differently.
Anne Carson: “Justice tips her scales so that we learn by suffering” (I.I.179-180)
E.D.A Morshead: “This wage from justice' hand do sufferers earn / The future to discern ” (I.I.deep sigh)
Moving on!
Crown Him with Many Crowns
Crown Him with Many Crowns
A reference to a Christian hymn of the same name, written by Matthew Bridges. Traditionally set to the tune of a song called “Diademata” (itself derived from the Greek word for “crown”) by English organist and composer Sir George Job Elvey (the song was apparently composed for the hymn), but arrangements have been updated in the recent past.
This one is tricky, because this song is Very John, so... perhaps Crown is the link between the upper echelons of the empire and BoE?
Much to think about. Next!
Some relevant verses:
Crown him with many crowns,
The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own:
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless king
Through all eternity.
[...]
Crown him the Lord of peace!
Whose power a scepter sways,
From pole to pole,--that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise:
his reign shall know no end,
And round his pierced feet
Fair flowers of paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
Crown him the Lord of years!
The Potentate of time,--
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime!
Glassed in a sea of light,
Where everlasting waves
Reflect his throne,--the Infinite!
Who lives,--and loves--and saves.
[...]
Crown him with crowns of gold,
All nations great and small,
Crown him, ye martyred saints of old,
The Lamb once slain for all;
The Lamb once slain for them
Who bring their praises now,
As jewels for the diadem
That girds his sacred brow.
Crown him the Son of God
Before the worlds began,
And ye, who tread where He hath trod,
Crown him the Son of Man;
Who every grief hath known
That wrings the human breast,
And takes and bears them for His own,
That all in him may rest.
Crown him the Lord of light,
Who o'er a darkened world
In robes of glory infinite
His fiery flag unfurled.
And bore it raised on high,
In heaven--in earth--beneath,
To all the sign of victory
O'er Satan, sin, and death.
Crown him the Lord of life
Who triumphed o'er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife
For those he came to save;
His glories now we sing
Who died, and rose on high.
Who died, eternal life to bring
And lives that death may die.
[...]
Unjust Hope
Unjust Hope
Te Whaea, according to my search, is te reo (Maori) for “the Mother,” but... I think more in the sense of a title than a relationship, in context?
A reference to the poem “The Ikons” by New Zealand poet James K. Baxter. The line is as follows:
“Hard, heavy, slow, dark,
Or so I find them, the hands of Te Whaea
Teaching me to die. Some lightness will come later
When the heart has lost its unjust hope
For special treatment.” [...] (1-5)
There is soup made in this poem
And a river used in good old TLT context! (the context is death btw)
On a meta note, James K. Baxter was raised as not practicing any particular faith, or so I understand, but was a devout Catholic in his later years. He was also passionate about Maori culture in New Zealand and heavily embraced it, likely most exposed to it by his wife Jacquie Sturm, who was Maori herself - however, his reputation is not spotless and his treatment of women (including Jacquie) has been heavily criticized.
That said, this poem... oof
h e l p
“[...] and the fist of longing
Punches my heart, until it is too dark to see” (21-22)
And that’s all I have so far! As more information comes out (or the book) I’ll update this post as needed!
Thanks for reading!
