[melanthiusofithaca]

“why did you choose Hermes for his mentor?”

[melanthiusofithaca]

“This is what being related to Hermes does to you”

[melanthiusofithaca]

Mwah-♥︎♡

(Ooc: Yes he's drunk. Yes this is a sober thought of his that he acted out while drunk.)

Melanthius looks like he got shot ten times in the head.

“Wh.”

[melanthiusofithaca]

“HELP ME WHY ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO COURT ME.”

[melanthiusofithaca]

biting you (with love)

”Ow?!-“

[melanthiusofithaca]

“Eleven. And you have to drain out all the blood. At least that’s how Ares told me.”

"Like how many goats do I need gut before I get a blessing? Just asking.."

[melanthiusofithaca]

“YOU COULDVE GONE BEHIND ME?!-”

MELANTHIUS. HELP ME. ANTINOUS IS GOING TO BEAT MY ASS.

(He let me sleep with him. And now he's mad at me? 😭)

ooc: (you don't have to answer, this is an Oc acc)

“WH—HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HELP??-”

“Well.. I’m forced to, you know.”

[some time around lunch, Amphinomus walks into the dining hall. Looking around, he sees that there aren't many people around, except for a few stray suitors and...]

[you. Amphinomus' eyes brighten a bit as he strides over to greet you]

Hello Melanthius! How are you doing today?

( @teddybear-suitor )

Melanthius was cleaning one of the tables, and he jumped at Amphinomus’ voice. And immediately turned around.

“Ah, greetings. I’m doing.. alright.”

[melanthiusofithaca]

“Cleaning, as I always am..”

[melanthiusofithaca]

soo melan, what do you think of Amphinomus? A lil birdie told me you often think of him

He sputters, almost spitting out his fig, his face flushing. “I… I do not think of him!”

[melanthiusofithaca]

Unusual silhouette, huh? That was a new one. He’d been called goat-legged, scarecrow-shaped, and once—by a very angry shepherd—��like a satyr who lost a bet.”

He rolled his eyes again. “Ah, yes, the dress code. I was told it’s ‘opulent but not obnoxious,’ which is very helpful and not at all vague,” he deadpanned, swirling the wine like a philosopher pretending to ponder the nature of grapes. “So I figured: nothing that smells like sheep, and nothing with bloodstains. Already raising the bar for myself.”

“And don’t worry, I’ll treat your garments with more respect than I treat myself. Which is to say, I’ll try not to spill anything too acidic on them.”

Melanthius then cocked his head, faking sudden realization. “Oh, and if the moly starts whispering in your sleep, don’t respond. It gets clingy.”

“Hey.. Lord Antinous. I need a favor… I’ll give you something in return if you do it.”

@melanthiusofithaca

The great halls of the palace of Ithaca had always been rather.. quiet. Or well, that was before the suitors' arrival. Since then, it seemed like there was never a day of calm for the royals and the staff that managed the palace. And, honestly, he hadn't really bothered to think much about it.

Antinous found himself sitting at the dinning table, with his feet on the piece of furniture like he owned the place, like he had already been chosen to wear the crown. That was far from reality, but he decided to fool himself into enjoying the time he spent there, despite it becoming rather boring, in a way. And while yes, he wasn't the kindest of all suitors, he could be manageable.. sometimes.

His peacefulness, however, was interrupted by the words that were uttered by the low-blood, who seemed to have grown confident enough to ask something from him. Huh.

"Ah, Melanthius."

The ithacan shook his head, a small grin barely showing in the corner of his mouth as he swirled a goblet with wine in his right hand, almost as if he were playing with his food.

"It seems you've forgotten your.. position. Whatever made you think I could possibly make you a favor? And, most importantly, that you had something you could give me in return?"

[melanthiusofithaca]

you’re gonna replace me? :(

🪽

“Of course not! I’m just trying to get other gods on my side! For fun!”

[melanthiusofithaca]

“Y’know.. it would be pretty funny if I could get Lord Ares to train me..”

[melanthiusofithaca]

first sell! congratulations, my boy! hahaha!~

Hermes

He winces, “Yeah.. don’t mention it. Also, don’t say that like I’m your son.” He scoffs.
