Me after finishing the Song of achilles:

[ashwatchedeverygayshows]

Patroclus:

you’ve always had my love, and since that’s not enough.

Where you’re going let me follow.

We’ve grown too brave for pretending.

I know that you’re not mine to save.

We’re racing like a heartbeat till the ending, so just let me try.

Just let me try…

Achilles:

Don’t take Troy without me.

I’ll do the rest.

We’ll have our forever.

Patroclus:

or whatever is left.

Let me go, Achilles.

Achilles:

Then you will return to me?

Achilles: I would walk through fire for you

Patroclus: aww

Achilles: Or well since fire is really dangerous, maybe a very humid room

Achilles: Not too humid tho, my hair...

Patroclus: ._.

Old Greece held the opinion "what's manlier than two men?" Of course they shipped patrocilles.

Did they write fanfiction

Was that considered rpf

The Silence of the Girls by Pat Barker

Only just finished reading it recently. I think it's a beautiful retelling of Troy (though I haven't read the literature and I'm not sure how much of it was from original stories and how much was changed). It may not be the book I will re-read over and over, but it amazed me so much.

Halfway through the focus of the story seemed to shift from the girls to Achilles and Patroclus, and I was so in love with their relationship (and their interaction with Briseis). I was surprised at how much effort the author spent on that soul-shattering love between Achilles and Patroclus in this feminist perspective story. Then the perspective would be back to Briseis and I felt I was slapped on the face by the contrast between the story of epic, tragic male heroes and the silent, dehumanized female slaves. Perhaps that was what the author strived for. The more I was invested in Achilles' story, the more damage I received when realising I also neglected the voice of women. The book title " The Silence of the Girls" sank into me more and more as the story proceeded. The ending was right. It was Achilles' story, and that was what would be told and remembered. But Briseis did live on, and her story was just about to begin. I don't know what happen to her next, so I took that as a hopeful ending and I quite like it.

(Having said all that, I'm a hypocrite. My favourite thing in this book is still Patrocilles and I'm going to read The Song of Achilles next to see if that's as good as everyone said. )

The song of Achilles? Where can I join the choir??

[tsoa-incorrect-quotes]

Guys do you think in the middle of the war Patroclus would be choping off the heads of the Trojan soldiers, causing an absolute massacre, being absolutely terrifying. Meanwhile Achilles is staring at him from across the battlefield with "heart eyes".

It ain't the best but I drew Achilles and added a macbeth quote that reminded me of him :)

This is the perfect song for

The Song of Achilles

I just finished reading “The Song Of Achilles” and I’m not quite sure how to put it into words. 

This book was an emotional journey unlike anything I ever read. The beautiful described moments of pure bliss between Achilles and Patroclus, followed immediatly by the crushing realisation of what the end of the story will be. I was never so torn between between happines and dread as in this book. 

I don’t even have to lie when I say that I haven’t cried that much over anything in a very long time. It was beautiful and heartbreaking and has definitly earned a special place in my heart.

“Speak to Me” by Amy Lee literally summarizes the state of half of my OTPs right now.

All the Greeks crying about Patroclus' death in chapter 17 is such a mood, tho
