Alexander the Great and Hephaestion in Alexander: The Making of a God (2024)

I just remembered there's a dialogue in the game where Hans compares Henry to Alexander the Great. And like. Yes. Yes.

Alexander was admirative and envious of Achilles for having a Patroclus, so he had to have his Hephaestion. And just like that, and just like the two knights in Hans's tale, Hans and Henry had to have each other 😭

Me when hyperfixation on Ancient Greeks. I should be doing college work. My copy of The Odyssey was just delivered. And instead of focusing on any of that I’m obsessing over Hephaestion. Please send help. And maybe some fun facts of anyone knows any

why is everyone obsessed over romeo and juliet when the holy trinity of gay tragic lovers exits!? like alexander the great, achilles and apollo didn’t lose hephaestion, patroclus and hyacinthus for everyone to forget about them!! like they’re the same but one is a myth, the other is a book, and the one that was real

[all-this-panic-still-no-disco]

fellas is it gay to visit the graves of achilles and patroclus with your personal bodyguard/bff who you named second in command to your empire and compare yourself to achilles and him to patroclus and also lose your mind when he dies and die yourself not eight months later

short little comic I drew in lectures

given Alexander's tendency to work a lot and sleep very little, especially earlier in his life, he likely had a tendency to doze every free moment he got (based off my own habit of falling asleep at my work table all the time) - and I wanted to draw something with it
