you may have seen achilles in his miserable blanket burrito but have you seen odysseus Sitting Like That while appealing to achilles in his miserable blanket burrito

achilles looking very "make him stop make him stop make him stop"

Clytemnestra: FIGHT ME!, you nerd ass punk. Helen, behind her: at least try to sound sophisticated when you threaten someone. Clytemnestra,smirking: dost thou wish to engage in a dual, my good ✨bitch✨ Helen,unimpressed: somehow that was worse.

Actual image of Odysseus on his way back to Penelope (he’s got to get through the suitors first)

Diomedes sitting on a couch with his arms crossed: So I've seen that you've been spending a lot of time with Penelope lately. Odysseus: Wait no dude it's not what it looks like I swear Diomedes: Oh really? So theres no reason for me to be jealous? Odysseus: No! You're the only one for me Diomedes: Is that so? Odysseus: I promise! Penelope and I are just dating, ok? Diomedes: so there's no rivalry-friendship feelings involved? Odysseus: you are still my only Rival. She's just the best thing that's happened to me. Nothing more Diomedes: but I'm the best Rival to have happened to you right? Odysseus: Of course! Penelope just watching all of this go down: What the fuck

Actual roman epitaph for a dog

But never let me die without a struggle and without acclaim

Ajax: are you okay, Achilles ? Achilles, sighing: Patroclus used to call me Achilles. Ajax: yeah because it's your fucking name.

Menelaus: Why aren't there friend pick-up lines? Pick up lines to make friends like- Menelaus, to Antilochus: Hey, that's a cute outfit. You know where it would look better?

Orpheus and Eurydice, timsasha

happy "everyone forgets that icarus also flew" monday. i want to throw up !

what’s funny about odysseus being portrayed as a pacifist in any trojan war retelling is that yes i hold the draft dodger myth very close to my heart but once he went to war he made himself an expert at it. the war haunts him, the war follows him home, songs of war are said to make him weep like a woman whose husband is killed and who is about to be taken captive [which is, btw, the most loaded imagery i could imagine homer using], and all of that matters because he was very, very good at it

love a reading of odysseus that understands war will still traumatize you when you're not morally opposed to it, when you're good at it, when you desire it, whether what you desire is violence or the glory and profit that come with it, and when you win it
