i can’t believe the hardest hc to think of is what thaletas’ zodiac sign would be

[polemeios-blog]

i live for the idea of a really good greek dub of odyssey but only if thaletas unapologetically speaks with a tsakonian dialect or at least accent

THE  SPARTAN  WAY  (  AND  ATHENIANS’,  TOO.  )  TO  OFFER  DRACHMAE,  AND  ADDITIONAL  RICHES,  FOR  SCORCHING  THE  SHORES  IN  A  BLAZING  TRAIL.  war  with  no  end  in  sight  makes  both  contenders  desperate  to  accept  any  help  necessary,  upon  which  it’s  even  more  INTRIGUING  to  meet  someone  like  thaletas  whose  entire  body  language  speaks  of  how  INFURIATING  the  mere  idea  of  hiring  a  misthios  is  to  him.     ‘     maybe  something—  but  they  have  no  SOLIDARITY  among  each  other,  even  less  when  fighting  in  the  arena.     ’     he  could  mention  the  BOND  OF  A  BLOODLINE,  but  even  though  he  wears  no  mask  like  all  the  snakes  do,  he  must  not  pull  thaletas  in  deeper  into  the  pit  than  necessary.  even  less  at  a  time  when  cinder  and  fume  are  lit  around  them,  athenian  soldiers  thoroughly  distracted  upon  their  attempts  to  settle  chaos.     ‘     you  seem  to  be  doing  fine  on  your  own  anyway,  spartan.  i  am  beginning  to  get  the  idea  i  am  just  for  decoration,     ’     he  teases  undeterred,  unaffected  about  whether  or  not  there  may  be  some  truth  involved.  what  else  could  arouse  his  interest  more  than  watching  one  single  person  bringing  chaos  to  an  entire  fort  ?     ‘     let  me  go  inside  and  find  those  letters  for  you.  unless  you  want  me  to  keep  distracting  the  guards  ?  i  imagine  there  must  be  some  cages  with  bears  and  wolves  which  are  waiting  to  be  opened.     ’

      ——— *・IT IS NOT WAR THAT NURTURES HONOUR; but it is the choices       taken IN war that gives man his meaning . for when all is said & done — what is       there left in the ruins when ALL sensibility has been lost ? a broken home ? a       crying infant ? perhaps these feelings of intrigue ( slow & steady in their burn )       run deeper than the conscious mind could possibly fathom . ❝ i've yet to hear a      true kinship that is built on the love of drachmae . ❞ the past meets them here &      brings forth thaletas' ponderings for all ( the ones currently idle in their line of duty,      that is ) to hear . & upon hearing the other's frivolous remarks in return, not ONCE      has a sense of discomfort tainted the polemarch's bearing . NO, NO — he had no      use in shunning the truth; ESPECIALLY if it is obvious enough to be presented so      CASUALLY . ❝ maybe, ❞ he hummed, imitating the manner in which only spartan      witticisms were capable of pulling off : short & sweet . ❝ — DO make yourself      useful, recruit . i do not need any further evidence proving your capabilities as a      ❛ distraction ❜ as of this very moment . ❞

you’re not broken. you’re not an object. you don’t need to be fixed.

“in a warm sunlit room, you’re laying close to my side, breath low and warm against my neck, your eyes closed as the quiet lull of the morning greets us both. you lace your fingers through mine, squeezing them gently, like a soft reminder that you’re still here; that we’re still here, together. you murmur good morning but it sounds more like i love you and it’s in moments like this, where it’s all peace and clarity and all that lays in-between, that allows us the chance to feel like we’re in a world where only we exist; in a world where only we matter.”

      ——— *・❝ ... i'll give you an a for effort, ❞ IS THIS REAL LIFE ?       is this actually happening right now ? it's funny really ... thaletas       didn't particularly plan this one out as thoroughly as he SHOULD .       cheeks swell up with a sheepish rouge . a lingering imagination as       one menace & the idea of being anything BUT another lame officer       as the other . any attempts now to hide his sudden bashfulness                about the situation seemed to be poorly executed .                          ❝ AH, don't miss me too much . ❞
