#Hector's musings

[hectorfrombritain]

This is just a short message to everyone.

It’ll probably be fine—it’ll work out. But even if it doesn’t, that’s really okay. Your best doesn’t have to be perfect, at times it’ll be messy or less than what you hoped for. And that’s still enough. Our best can look different depending on so many things.

And in case no one’s told you this lately, I’m proud of you. Proud of how you’re still here, still trying, still making the most of what you have, even with your worn out tools. That quiet strength, that resilience—it matters so much. And whatever happens, you’ll find your way, one small step at a time.

Headcanons for asking the men of troy if you can ride their face.

Female reader. Married to the guys cause uh, ancient Greece.

18+ content

Achilles, Hector, Paris and Odysseus because Patroclus is a child. An innocent bean. Never.

So, this is my first time writing NSFW content so I am sorry it isn't good but it's an effort. A very explicit effort

NSFW under cut. This is embarrassing I feel like I should explain myself but have you seen these men?! Like have you?!

Achilles the things that this movie presented us with

I am already of the opinion that he sees your orgasm as an accomplishment

Ooh boy

I have a personal headcanon that he can and will throw you over his shoulder when he wants to do Satan's Ramba so he's gonna do that here

Might make you wait after promising to do so just to be an ass

But might I remind you that he is your ass

Grips your thighs while he ravishes you with his tongue and staring up at you with that fine face framed by your thighs

very pretty sight

Grip his hair and pull him closer and he will finally feel wanted for something other then fighting like you didn't want him for other things 🙄

Cocky bastard, will never let you live it down but at the same time he enjoys doing it to you

Likes giving you oral anyway so I'd say he's a 10/10

Hector bae

Okay so-

At first, he's flustered

Let's assume you blurt it out, cheeks flushed as you are embarrassed because of what you are requesting

But uh

You asked for it didn't you?

He has to please his queen, doesn't he? 😉

Well, are you going to be sore hehehe

But also, now he is kinda hooked on eating you out

Side rant!

he will come back from a stressful meeting or something and just lose himself in your thighs before he rams you into the bed

Back to main topic

Grips your thighs or hips when your above him

Might come up with an a system of hair pulling code so you can tell him what you want or need when he has you to much of a mess to speak

10/10, the looks he gives you from between your thighs 👀

Paris

ok, so ik I don't like Paris a lot as a character buttt, I understand the appeal okay? Orlando Bloom was in his prime

you think you are the one who suggests this?

Paris heard about it

And begged you to try it

Your worried about suffocating him but he assures you that it is fine

Full honesty, he isn't very good at first

But I'll be damned if he isn't a fast learner

Makes it his mission to become the best

Actively gets stronger from holding you up when you go weak from the sensations and his brother notices that his lil bro is suddenly a lil more built in the arms

That leads to some awkward conversations but Hector ain't telling, might be kind enough to give pointers though

is the kinda guy who would love a 69

9/10 because I think he might be a tad sloppy at first

Odysseus

This man does it to get something from you

could be information or help or anything really

At least the first time

But, he kinda starts to enjoy it

Questions everything

Comes up with different methods just because

Does it to "simulate his thoughts"

The only thing being stimulated is your clit-

so, uh yeah. Awkward coughing fit of embarrassment

8/10 because of the bs excuses

I'm tagging @streets-in-paradise because I really want her opinion lol. Her blog has more great stuff for Troy!

Daredevil: Born Again

[daresplaining]

I know of and respect your dislike of the Daredevil tv series, but I wanted to ask if you might have reading recs to familiarize myself with what the Born Again series is planning. Heather Glenn, Muse, Mayor Fisk, etc. I've read some relevant comics, but I'm not sure if I'm missing something important. What runs and issues might I need to hit? ♥

I mean, listen, "dislike" is a strong word. There was a time when this show was very fun to me. If it were to stop filtering into the comics, and if Marvel stopped treating the other Netflix shows like second-rate afterthoughts, it might become fun to me again. Regardless, I'm always thrilled to help with things like this!

Heather Glenn

Heather was introduced in Daredevil volume 1 #126, when she wandered into her ex-boyfriend's apartment and found Matt living there instead. She became a member of the core Daredevil cast, dating Matt and serving as an assistant at the law firm. She was tragically central in Matt's earliest life-falls-apart storylines, and remained an important recurring character for a span of roughly 80-or-so issues. In other words, she's a pretty big deal, and I'm excited to learn she will be making the leap to the MCU. (Heather's family's company, Glenn Industries, was actually mentioned in Luke Cage season 2. But referencing that would require them to, you know, acknowledge the existence of Luke Cage, so we'll see.)

Heather's appearances include: Daredevil volume 1 #126-132, 134-138, 141-154, 157-160, 165-167, 169, 171, 174-177, 182-186, 189, 195, and 220. In particular, you'll want to check out #147-154 and 182-186, 189.

Muse

Muse was introduced in Daredevil volume 5 #10 as a terrifyingly dangerous antagonist for budding superhero Blindspot/Sam Chung (who was already introduced to the MCU in Iron Fist season 2!), and appeared in issues #10-14 and #596-600 (don't let the high numbers alarm you— this took place during a period when all of Marvel's comics briefly switched to their legacy numbering). Muse is also now being brought back in the current Daredevil: Unleash Hell mini-series starring Elektra.

Mayor Fisk

The "Mayor Fisk" plotline is also from Daredevil volume 5. Volume 5 was the first Daredevil run to come out following the release of the show, which had a noticeable impact on both the writing and art, so it's fascinating to see it now impacting the show in such a big way in return. Truly, a full circle. The initial story arc is covered in issues #595-600, but Fisk remained the mayor all the way through the end of volume 5 and all of volume 6 before finally being defeated in the next election in Devil's Reign— a story that was centered around Mayor Fisk's draconian laws against superheroes.

White Tiger(s)

I've also heard mention of a White Tiger appearance? This is an extremely cool superhero legacy born out of the era of Marvel's kung fu superheroes alongside Shang-Chi, Iron Fist, the Daughters of the Dragon, and the Sons of the Tiger (who are also tied into the White Tiger legacy). The White Tigers wield martial arts mastery and superhuman enhancements channeled from a magical amulet. The first White Tiger, Hector Ayala, was introduced in the Deadly Hands of Kung Fu anthology magazine exactly 50 years ago this year! While definitely a product of its time, DHKF was notable for cultivating and promoting a diverse cast of protagonists, and Hector was Marvel's very first Latino superhero. His origin story begins in #19, at the end of the issue's Sons of the Tiger comic installment, and then continues in #20-24, 26-27, and 29-32. He also appeared in Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man volume 1 #9-10, 18-32, and 49-52, starred in the retrospective story "Pa'lante Juntos" in Marvel's Voices: Comunidades in 2021, and— possibly most relevant, in this instance— was at the center of the Daredevil story arc "The Trial of the Century" (Daredevil volume 2 #38-40).

That story was followed soon afterward by the introduction of the second White Tiger, Hector's niece, Angela Del Toro (who was actually already name-dropped in Jessica Jones!). She appeared in Daredevil volume 2 #59, 65-70, 77-79, 113-115, 119-510, had her own White Tiger mini-series, and has appeared in a few other places as well (notably, Shadowland and New Avengers (2015)). The third White Tiger is Angela's aunt, Ava Ayala, who was introduced in Avengers Academy (2010) #21 and also appeared in Mighty Avengers, Captain America and the Mighty Avengers, and New Avengers (2015), as well as having her own story in Marvel's Voices: Comunidades. (She was also a main character in the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon.) Finally, there is another White Tiger, just named "White Tiger", a literal anthropomorphic tiger who was introduced in Heroes for Hire volume 1. She's not connected at all to the previously established White Tiger legacy, and if she somehow gets referenced in this Daredevil show, I will put ketchup on my copy of Mike Murdock's introductory issue and eat it. (But you should read Heroes for Hire volume 1 anyway, because it's really fun.)

Kirsten McDuffie

Is Kirsten also still in this? I recall a time when sources claimed she was in this. Regardless, everyone should read some Kirsten McDuffie comics. They're good for your health. Kirsten was introduced in Daredevil volume 3 #1 and was part of the core cast in all of volume 3, Daredevil: Road Warrior, and volume 4, plus Daredevil: Dark Nights #4-5, then reappeared in Daredevil volume 5 #17-20, Man Without Fear (2019) #2, Daredevil volume 6 #23-24 and a few other scattered issues afterward, Devil's Reign #3-5 and Devil's Reign: Omega.

"Born Again"

The new season is called "Born Again", so I guess you should read "Born Again" (Daredevil volume 1 #227-233)? Even though season 3 already kind of adapted it? Either way, it's a great, classic story arc that I recommend checking out if you haven't.

I hope this helps! Please don't hesitate to ask about any other references that interest you. I'm not sure I'll be actively seeking them out myself, but I'm very happy to receive and talk about them.

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Only up to episode 2 and you can already see how Fisk and Matt will go back to their old identities.

Fisk is trying to go straight, but he’s too short-tempered and insecure to stay on this path. So when he’s talked down upon, his first instinct is to use shady tactics to strong-arm his opponents (the cheesesteak scene).

Matt is trying to stay retired from being Daredevil, but his sense of justice is too strong. You can tell that by the way he reacts to Hector talking about how the streets need White Tiger and that no one is protecting the people now that Daredevil is gone.

It’s only a matter of time, but the question is, what will be the last straw that will push them back into their old lives? Again, I say that it’ll be the serial killer Muse that does it.

[girlbossvicvega]

can’t tell if Born Again really is good or if Charlie Cox is just hard carrying

show is definitely hurt by D+ and all the creative reshuffling behind the scenes which just makes his ability to convincingly wrap everything going on with Matt together by sheer force of will all the more impressive

Hear me out

Fem!Odysseus from your Sing O Muse of Agony god AU based on Stray Feathers by FictionForLife_NZ's

Lore: Odysseus grew wings at a young age which led to Laertes killing her out of insanity (Anticlea also got hurt since she tried defending Odysseus. Ctimene was too young at the time thankfully). Later on, Hermes reincarnated Odysseus as a goddess (the goddess of safety and comfort) with Circe's help (who becomes Odysseus' adopted mother), killed Laertes out of anger, and adopted Odysseus as his daughter. Hera, Apollo, and Artemis occasionally pops in to take care of her when Hermes is busy.

Years later, Odysseus (in mortal disguise) met Hector and fell in love with him. After their interaction, she went to Hermes and this is basically their interaction:

Hermes: Well hello there, my little songbird!

Odysseus: Father!

Hermes: Now would you grace me with an explanation as to why you're smiling like Dionysus in a party?

Odysseus, dreamily: I met someone

Hermes, less excited: Oh?

Odysseus: He's sweet, and kind, and cute, and-

Hermes: A man?

Odysseus: You should've seen it, father! I was in the forest doing archery practice and then I fell after I tried dislodging a stray arrow from a tree bark. I was fully expecting to fall to the ground when a prince caught me and helped me back up! I was fully expecting for him to be condescending but no! He praised me! He said how impressive it was that I'm wielding a palintonos bow and how skilled I must be... He's also really adorable about it too, really flustered. He tried to hide it, but I can tell

Hermes: All this talk about the prince but I haven't even gotten a name yet!

Odysseus: Right, right sorry about that. He's prince Hector of Troy!

Hermes, dead serious now: No. absolutely not.

Odysseus: What?

Hermes: I know how you want this to play out. Date him, get him to ask for my blessing, he eventually proposes to you, get married and have children. I will not allow any of that.

Odysseus: But why?!

Hermes: He's trained by Apollo! He can hurt gods if he wants, he can hurt you too!

Odysseus: He won't hurt me, I swear! He's too kind to do that-

Hermes: Mortals change, Odysseus! Hector will change too and only prophets and the Moirai can know just how he'll change

Odysseus: But father, I love him!

Hermes, raising his voice: I will not entrust that man with you! Not now, not ever and that is final!

Odysseus, flinches and backs down: I... I understand, father...

Hermes, sighing and holds Odysseus' head in his hands: Look, if you get hurt by his hands, I'll never forgive myself. Remember the last time I had entrusted a man with my female descendants? And that was a king to mortals. What about a prince, capable of hurting gods, to a goddess?

Odysseus: I know...

Hermes: Sure, Hector is kind right now. But what if he goes mad like Laertes? What if your children have wings like you? You also still have your duties to fulfill so what if Hector's paranoia gets to him and hurts your children? Please understand my concerns, my little theif

Odysseus: I understand, father...

Then she goes and rants this to Circe but Circe just scoffed and asks why Ody is spending too much time on a *man*

Odysseus: You hate men... Don't you...?

Circe: Honestly, I don't know why you came to me with your boy problems

After that she goes to Aphrodite to rant, hoping that she'll be able to help. But yeah it didn't end well either

Aphrodite: I can get your dear Hector to fall in love with you unconditionally

Odysseus: Wha- no! The problem here isn't Hector not being in love with me, it's about Hermes not giving me his blessing!

Aphrodite: Then I can't help you

So she decides to go to Apollo for help, thinking that because Hector is his mentee then maybe he'd be able to help. Also he has a record for the most amount of lovers in the greek pantheon so surely he'd be able to help, but...

Odysseus: Apollo, can you help me with something?

Apollo: Sure, little bird, what can I help you with?

Odysseus: I- *looks around and sees Hyacinth flowers, a laurel tree, and a sunflower* ...never mind

Apollo: ???

So she eventually goes to Hera for help and she's finally getting help.

Hera: Anticlea's mistake isn't marrying Laertes, it's not monitoring his condition closer and finding ways to help him

Odysseus: So... if I can find a way to show father that Hector wouldn't be that dangerous even if he went mad like Laertes... it's possible that he'll finally give us his blessing?

Hera: Pretty much

Odysseus, excitedly hugging Hera: Thank you, grandmother! You're the best!

So Odysseus goes to Hermes to make a deal

Odysseus: What if Hector goes through challenges? It'll show you that he won't ever hurt me on purpose!

Hermes: fine... But I'll decide on the challenges

Odysseus: Okay!

Hermes: 50 challenges

Odysseus: Wha- that's far too many! He'll spend his entire life working on them! Not even Psyche had to complete that many challenges

Hermes: She was pregnant and she's a woman. Aphrodite just needed to make her prove her devotion to Eros. Meanwhile I have to make sure that Hector is devoted to you, wouldn't bring harm to you, and be able to protect you

Odysseus: I'm a goddess I can protect myself

Hermes: I stand by what I said

Odysseus: Ugh!

Hermes: Finee, 30

Odysseus: 6

Hermes: 10

Odysseus: Okay!

Hermes: Hold on, we'll have to set some ground rules first before you go around helping him with the excuse of "there are no rules against this"

Odysseus: ....fine

So Hermes starts saying a lot of fair and very detailed rules

Hermes: You're trying to find a loophole aren't you?

Odysseus: It's not fair

Hermes: You can't trick the trickster, my thief

And eventually yeah Odysseus reveals her wings (while pretending to be a mortal) to Hector as a part of a challenge, and Hector just praised her wings, adamant about not calling it a "curse" or "omen of doom" (unlike Laertes) and instead is amazed by its beauty and softness

Omg it's so cute and precious and and...

I know that fic very well and I really love it (I started being active on Tumblr with some of my god Odysseus ideas).

I truly love what you came up with and I would love to see it become a proper fanfic!!!

I could imagine Hermes wanting his daughter to become a chastity goddess or wanting to himself chose a partner for his daughter, meanwhile Hector and Odysseus are dating in secret.

It is also interesting looking at my Fem!Ody's personality. Due to what happened to her she has a defence mechanism which is "putting on a mask" so people never truly know how she feels.

I can imagine her acting nonchalant towards Hector at first only to giggle like a little girls when he isn't there to see it only for him to one day catch her blushing and being lovey-dovey.

It could also be funny if Hector thought for a long time that she is just a commoner and he was ready to defend her honour, wanting to marry her no matter what her status is only to find out that she's a goddess hahaha.

I really love your idea and thank you for sharing it!!!

Honestly if you ever want to turn it into a proper fic please send me a link so I can read it 🙏

Or if you would need some help, let me know 🫶

One thing I'll always love about growing up and maturing is the opportunity to refine one's taste and opinions about pretty much everything. Clothing, books, music, and even relationships.

With age comes knowledge and experience which you can use to continuously change as a person, recreating yourself and carving a new sculpture out of the old one in a graceful way.

The Men of Troy reacting to the reader being groped unwantedly by a strange man

this is basically the prequel to s*xeul assault, it doesn't happen.

F!reader. Men are Achilles, Patroclus, Hector, Paris, and Odysseus.

mentions of them killing/beating guys

Achilles

Excuse me? What?

whether he sees it or you tell him about it he is going to react to the same

This should be titled the quickest way to meet Hades

He'll send you to his tent with Patroclus for safety.

They are going to die a painful death, the last thing they hear will be Achilles cursing their name and family

Then he washed their blood from his hands and he goes to you

he'll hold you, if you want

if you don't want to be touched he will sit by your side

You wanna talk? You don't? it doesn't matter, he's there and it'll never happen again.

Patroclus

His cousin taught him this shit for a reason

sends the bastard poetic threats

he probably poisons them

the king at comforting you though

whatever you want, whatever you need, he's got you

Hector

ok, so

he loves his woman, its in his code, he says that in the movie

usually he prefers to talk rather than fight and he is in the public eye

so he stays up looking through the codes and laws of Troy and he brings his case to his father who can't argue because he has something to back up his every word

goes with the guards to arrest the man

personally plans the public execution of him

he isn't leaving your side for quite sometime after

Paris

gets his brother to help him take the guy down

he's more likely to get the guys family to turn on him and so he feels all shame

amazing at comfort but scared to make you uncomfortable after the event

Odyeusses

we all know how he handled men trying to pursue his wife in canon

what? oh yes

is that the creeps body on the side of the road?

Is that Odyeusses dog, pissing beside it?

is he even more protective than Achilles?

yes, yes he fucking is.

[sad-trash-hobo]

I just feel like the new episode of Daredevil was....a filler? It didn't really show the struggle of the case like they used to in Netflix Daredevil and it just felt like going from scene to scene without much care. Matt exposing white tiger was like, ok Matt just because you quit doesn't mean you get to decide for everyone, which is what Matt always does, so in character moment for sure. But nobody was surprised that white tiger died almost immediately right? Like, him getting a not guilty verdict was the call to action for the cop punisher cult, clearly. I just wasn't moved by it? Idk, I KNOW the show is different from Netflix and I get they have to change things, but the whole episode felt like a cop show. I'm hating the color tones they're using for the show. It's so cold and dull with blues and whites and greys, when Daredevil used to be yellow and red and rich colors and everything was saturated and now its all so? Bleak. I want to see what else they do, but they also need to get a move on lol, cause they aren't getting full seasons like they did in Netflix, so there's no time for a slow burn.

[reelvibes91]

Born Again Episode 4

Coming into Daredevil Born Again, there were a series of expectations. Especially since it was promised to be as well produced as the Netflix series was.

Each episode so far has made strides in the right direction, but they have not made that leap yet into anything great. This episode did feature the best moment of the series thus far, and that will be discussed later on. However, the rest of this episode felt misguided.

The early stuff with Angela (Hector's neice) was well done, but then quickly handled and dropped. There was a chance there for a more poignant message about loss and the anger people feel afterwards, but it seemed like the series just pushed forward.

It moved forward to a more questionable legal case about a man stealing Caramel Corn because the system failed him. However, he was guilty, and by the way the show explained it, he had been guilty prior as well. While the system is failing people, it was hard for the show to create a sympathetic situation here. We already know there is more heinous crime taking place so the series did not need to establish this once again. It didn't need to showcase this series and essentially make a joke about it for Matt to play off with a member of the DA's office.

There are a lot of moving parts to this series, and very few of them are moving in a positive direction, and the parts that move are do so very slowly. There is obvious corruption among the NYPD, and they have chosen not to really advance the storyline other than the fake Punisher logo drop. Fisk is using the political landscape to his advantage, and we have seen very little movement on that front until the final 45 seconds of this episode.

Speaking of the aforementioned Punisher, we finally saw Frank Castle, and it was hands down the best scene so far in the series. Jon Bernthal brings a fiery internsity to everything he does. This scene was the first time this series brought the same energy as the Netflix series. It was the first time this series made me feel raw emotions as Frank dared Matt to actually engage with his feelings and do something about it.

So far, this is not the series I have been hoping for. While this was a step in the right direction, this show has to begin speeding this up. We are essentially halfway through this season right now, and a snail is currently moving faster than most of these storylines. That's not to say they can't be great. Muse is coming. Daredevil is going to emerge, and so will Punisher. It's just time we got to the scenes that set up those returns and stop with the filler.
