OCS AS CHILDREN OF AGAMEMNON & KLYTEMNESTRA

tagged by: @inafieldofdaisies, @socially-awkward-skeleton, @jillvalentinesday. and @voidika. going with the la roux siblings because they really are a modern day greek tragedy with a cursed bloodline

ORESTES. Who are you? Who do you think you are? Are you prisoner to a story written long before you were born? Look at me. Listen. You do not have to be brave anymore. Stop looking at the sky like it will swallow you whole. You do not have to walk this world alone.

SCREAMING AT THIS RESULT FOR HER. ugh. yeah. specifically orestes in the eumenides. all of this is accurate...the identity issues...prisoner to her cursed bloodline...but also finding peace and acceptance and someone who will walk the earth by her side until one or both of them die <3

CHRYSOTHEMIS. You are written in and out in one breath. Hold on to yourself-- storms are coming. Do not let them rid you of your empathy, your warmth, do not lose yourself in the bloodbath that is your family. The playwrights may forget you-- but the audience will not. There are happy endings for people like you. Hold on tight.

a little surprised he didn't get iphigenia tbh considering she was the sacrificial child but oof. "do not lose yourself in the bloodbath that is your family" hits really hard for my boy ;w; he tries sooooooo hard to break the cycle of violence only to end up dragged back into it against his will </3
