Pride Ship Month Day #1: Patroclus x Achilles (Patrochilles)
For Pride month, I normally share my favourite queer books/characters on Twitter but this year I've decided to fully commit to my fandom trash aesthetic and am doing #prideshipmonth instead
There's no better ship to kick off the month with than my favourite ship of all time: Patrochilles. Imo, they're truly the greatest OTP to have existed, one whose love has echoed across the great expanses of time + universe. There could be no other ship that I could start #prideshipmonth with, no other ship that has owned my heart as deeply or fiercely as this one

I would just like to take a moment to appreciate Troy: Fall of a City for not trying to make me like Achilles
I mean I don't love that they made Paris nice but at least my least favorite boy Achilles is an asshole!

How did I miss Troy: Fall of a City? Full of handsome, bearded dudes and it has mixed up Greek mythology from more than once source, which is great for me because I know very little about it, so I love the bits that aren't in The Iliad because I have to go off and find out whether the writers made them up or they are proper: the judgement of Paris (yes, proper), the sacrifice of Iphigenia (yes, proper), the threesome of Achilles, Patroclus and Briseis (probably not, sadly, because it was great).

How Paris fucked up within the first 10 minutes of the first episode of Troy: Fall Of A City
-Wolves go awoo
-Paris has to find a missing cow because he was busy getting ass instead of working
-Encounters Zeus in the company of Hermes, Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite
-Paris, a mortal dude, ignores the presence of all 3 goddesses and only listens to Zeus and Hermes telling him to choose which one of them is best and most beautiful.
-Does not question that this may be a terrible idea with hilariously epic consequences.
-Does not consider that there are more than 3 goddesses in his own religion.
-Accepts Aphrodite’s promise of free ass if she’s chosen without questioning a word or wondering what the consequences will be if he chooses not-Aphrodite.
-It’s summer, which means there’s a certain seasonal goddess that didn’t get an invite to the Miss Pantheon competition.
-Hades sitting around the table with Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos in the Underworld:

#uquiz#the iliad#the odyssey#this is super good pls do it#i just dont have any better tags#also watch troy: fall of a city#its the best of the inevitably bad adaptations#i could go on about the importance of the Iliad to modern understanding of history anthropology and historiography for ages#but i wont do that to yall so in the meantime ship patrochilles#and remember that achilles is a bottom#but most importantly helen didnt deserve this shit

They don't show you Achilles piercing hector's heels because they are huge cowards
#he wasn't just tied#honer describes it so you have to include it alright i don't make the rules#a yes honer#anyways typos aside they also never show the achaeans admiring hector and also kinda being scared if him#even when he's dead#and poking him#looks at troy#looks at troy fall of s city#disgraceful

I don't know if that is really the source, but the "forgive me" in the end of Just a Man from Epic the musical reminds me of the "forgive me" when Odysseus throws Astyanax off the walls of Troy in the show Troy: Fall of a City, and I absolutely love it.

No one:
Me: I have been hyperfixating on Greek mythology for months now and therefore I have decided that every single work of fiction that I read/watch/play is part of one single amalgamate of canon in my head. I will now proceed to make AUs where everything is linked and I WILL write tons of fics about it with no regard for how actually shitty or not said works of fiction are.
#What do I do here do I state all the works of fiction I'm referring to here just to make fun of myself even MORE?#captain brainrotting hours#hades#percy jackson#song of achilles#blood of Zeus#record of Ragnarok#epic the musical#disney's hercules#wikipedia's articles for every single Greek god I guess??#troy fall of a city#the iliad#destripando la historia#overly sarcastic productions

There's something I hate about historical shows/movies/books that attempt to girlbossify female characters by acting like the society in which they lived was more accepting of women or had women in positions of power. It feels so weird because women DID contribute to history despite persistent oppression and it just feels like erasure.
