This art is so cute shoutout to the artist and this person’s request🌊
could you draw Leucothea? The ocean goddess who helped Odysseus?
Took a while but I finally came up with a design! Thanks for the rq this was fun 🫶🏾✨🤍 (her veil is part of hair which is part of the ocean which she uses to help Ody float :D )
Can confirm. Homer was a genius
A curated selection of my favorite details in this silly epic that changed storytelling forever. Homer is hilarious.
- Whenever anyone asks Odysseus where he’s from and he seizes the opportunity to lie continuously for several pages.
- Victims of his elaborate, entirely false backstories include: the cyclops, the suitors, the swineherd, the goddess Athena (who immediately calls bull), his son, his wife, and his father. Odysseus just loves lying
- Every time Athena makes Odysseus hotter and taller so he can rizz someone up
- His brilliant strategy to survive Charybdis’ whirlpool (cling to fig tree “like a bat”)
- When Telemachus casually drops that he is well aware that Mentor is actually Athena and she pretends not to hear and continues to act like she’s just some guy
- When Odysseus falls asleep while the Phoenicians give him a lift home, and instead of waking him when they reach Ithaca, the sailors just pick up the corners of his blankets to dump him on the shore and leave
- Odysseus subsequently waking on a random beach and spending several pages violently confused until Athena, slapping her forehead, has to appear to tell him what’s going on
- Penelope’s weaving and unweaving of the tapestry to get out of marrying the suitors. it’s so stupid that it’s brilliant
- When Odysseus goes to the land of the dead and Achilles and Patroclus appear together <3
- That time Odysseus and Athena sit down on a rock together to plot and scheme etc
- When the maid who raised Odysseus recognizes the gigantic scar he used to always brag about and he grabs her by the neck and tells her to shut the hell up. Elegant elegant man
- Odysseus’s dog who stayed alive for over 20 years so he could lay eyes on him before dying on the spot
- Every time someone says bro you’re kind of hot for a beggar and Odysseus says yeah I know right?
- When Circe was like oh dude I can’t kill you? Guess I’ll sleep with you
- “‘You bitch!’ retorted the ready-witted Odysseus”
- Penelope later calls this maid a bitch too
- When Odysseus avoids competing in the Phoenician games until one of the Phoenicians calls him weak and lazy. so he thoroughly wipes the floor with them
- The sheer number of boats Odysseus crashed
- The sheer number of times Odysseus started sobbing in public
- When one of the Suitors smacks beggar Odysseus with a stool and it takes everything in him to not go insane on them
- Every time Odysseus anonymously gasses Odysseus up
- And last, but not in any way least, the Trojan horse plan. We all know it. We all love it. But take a step back and think for a moment how delightfully absurd it is
Possible spoilers for ZA?⚠️⚠️⚠️
Ok.
A lot of people have been speculating that the three ZA statyers will get new forms, and I can confirm that. I’m no leaker, but in a newer post from Pokémon’s YouTube we see a photo of Harmony (I think that’s her name) with her team.
Below is said photo. Her line up is an ampharos, talonflame, gardevoir, ariados, gyarados, and pangoro (not in that order). But what’s missing?
Her starter.
These are all fully evolved pokemon. One of the ZA starters should be present, yet they are not. If there weren’t new forms, pokemon would’ve placed one of the starters in this lineup. They wouldn’t have a reason to remove the starter.
Thank you for listening to my Ted talk. Let’s hope the starters go crazy.
Certainly not me…
who else was not expecting the context of this???????
Bless Jorge and the cast, they’re so sweet and silly.
Today’s agenda: listen to the entirety of Vengeance to find motifs and my favorite songs. So far in order my favorites are…
1.Charybdis
2.Dangerous
3.Get in The Water
4.600 Strike
5.Not Sorry for Loving You
Please note I loved every single song, but I need to re listen to them to give proper thoughts
Dear god, it’s been months, but Legendary still has me in a chokehold😭😭😭
Very tempted to try and make a design for Ishmael, but I don’t think we ever receive any physical description of him🤔
i think people should implement the fact Odysseus cries CONSTANTLY in the Odyssey into their epic stuff more...cuz the sentence 'I then began to weep" is said so much itd take me forever to tally it up,
“Watch where the birds fly, they will lead us to land, there we’ll hunt for food my second in command”
Says that tactful and guileful man, gentle, royal, rugged, Odysseus, MASTER MARINER, and King of Ithaca.
Ody…my guy…
The birds will lead you to food.
Seagulls gather in flocks above water when there are fish near the surface.
FISH YOU CAN EAT.
BUDDY.
RAMSHACKLE A FISHING ROD. FOOD IS RIGHT THERE. USE SPEARS IF SO DESIRED.
I adore Odysseus, but I’m losing it actively, I do believe.
Behold: Odysseus doodle based on WolfyTheWitch’s design
Greek mythos brainrot is so bad that Odysseus king of Ithaka can grow mushrooms using my neurons
