"He got my daughter knocked up when I was specifically trying to keep her childless." - King Acrisius (⭐)
"Dad helped me out a lot with some tough tasks, and even got me a fast-pass to godhood in Olympus instead of staying in Hades forever. Step-mum was a bit of a letdown though. Would use again anyhow!" - Heracles (⭐⭐⭐⭐)

OSCAR ISAAC CHARACTERS | COLLECTION
Tumblr media
* i do not give permission for any of my works to be copied, reposted or translated (without my knowledge)
TV SHOWS & MOVIES MASTERLIST
Here you’ll find the collection of all my fics written for characters portrayed by Oscar Isaac
🔮 personal favorite || ☔️ smut || 🤧 angst || 🧁 fluff || 🩸 dark content
Tumblr media
ONESHOTS.
Soft Dark Nothing- Steven Grant x fem!reader 🔮☔️🤧
Steven’s been suffering from nightmares for a while now, you should’ve known better than to startle him awake.
Citrus Light| Steven grant x fem!reader☔️
You love the city especially at night. 
The way the cold wind brushes the loose strands out of your face, the way it rouses goosebumps across your skin. You love the lights, they remind you of the stars but instead of the sky they decorate the very earth you walk on. You look down on the city from the rooftop, everything seems so tiny. 
let me follow| steven grant x gn!reader - oneshot | mailcarrier may server collab 🧁
deciding that dating your postman would probably be unwise, you go out with a guy your friends set you up with. After a couple of shitty dates, Steven brings you a letter. You open it only to see that the guy had written you a long break up letter and telling all the things you did wrong on the dates. Furious by this, you invite Steven inside.
make your tea and your toast- jake lockley x fem!reader🔮☔️

Tongue Tied- Steven Grant x fem!reader x Marc Spector 🧁
Steven is helplessly and undeniably in love with you, simple as that. 
He enjoys talking to you, going to the movies with you, sleeping with you…He worships the very soil you walk on. Some would say he’s a little bit too in love but honestly who cares? Steven had you and that was all that mattered to him. 
Don’t Start Now- Marc Spector x archeologist fem!reader 🤧
Sweat drips down your forehead as you desperately try to follow Marc. The streets of Cairo are crowded as always, people bumping into you from every direction possible. Licking your lips, you reach out and grab the back of Marc’s jacket. He grumbles, clearly annoyed by you trailing him like a puppy. 
Walking On Sunshine- Steven Grant x gn!reader 🧁
Steven nervously stared at you from the top of his glasses. He was labeling the new products, or what he liked to call them junk, and was bored out of his wits. It was a tedious job and strained his eyes, which was the reason he was wearing his thick framed glasses. But his tedious day was quickly being proved not to be tedious anymore as you walked in through the glass doors. You had caught his glance, nodding as a small smile formed against your lips– Steven almost had a heart attack at that very moment. 
Love Me More - Marc Spector x fem!reader ☔️
marc wants you to prove how much you want him.
You Appearing - Steven Grant x fem!reader 🧁
Steven finds you on his doorstep, crying and needing a place to stay.
Flatline- Marc Spector x gn!reader 🧁

SERIES.
I’ve Got You Darlin’ - Moonknight x f!reader x Din Djarin 🔮☔️🤧

Already Gone ☔️
Both of your glistening bodies are buried in the darkness, only the light from outside reflecting against your skin. It’s always the same. He disappears for months. Comes back. Fucks you. Holds you. Makes you breakfast in the morning. Then leaves for another series of months. This time you're set on not giving him what he wants; your voice.
SERIES.
Watercolor Eyes ☔️

In the darkness that envelops the afterlife, among the shadows that dance like dying flames, I, Patroclus, observe. I observe a scene that unfolds in the world of the living, a scene of pain and humanity, where my Achilles, shining hero with a stormy heart, gives the tortured body of Hector to old Priam.In these ghostly lands, time distorts, lengthens like a night cry. Here, memories are sharp blades, and in them I see Achilles, my Achilles, torn by the pain of my fall, of my death. In his anger, he dragged Hector's body around Troy, an act of cruelty that did not belong to him, a cruelty born of the blackest pain.But now, in front of Priam, I see a different Achilles. I see a man, no longer a god of wrath, but a son, a human being who knows loss. I see Priam's tears, I see his pain, and in it, I see the reflection of Achilles' pain. How can mortals understand the pain of the gods? Yet, here, in this exchange of glances and tears, Achilles is more mortal than any other man.Ah, Achilles, brother of my heart, how I wish I could speak to you! I would like to tell you that in this gesture, in this restitution, there is a greatness that surpasses any song of Homer, any epic. In this humanity, in this compassion, you find true immortality, an immortality not carved in marble or sung in lyrics, but alive in the memory of those who know how to love and forgive.My dear Achilles, do you remember our dialogues under the stars, our discussions about fate and honor? How young we were, how blind we were! We thought honor lay in victory, in glory, in strength. But now I see that honor, true honor, lies in the ability to see the humanity in the other, in the enemy, in the fallen. And we, ghosts of the afterlife, can only observe, helplessly, the continuous flow of pain and love in the world of the living. We can only hope that, in some way, our stories, our lives, can serve as a warning, as a lesson. May the living learn from the error of our passions, from the folly of our anger.Achilles, my beloved Achilles, perhaps in this gesture of mercy, in this act of restitution, there is redemption, not just for you, but for all of us. Perhaps, in recognizing the humanity of the other, in seeing the pain of Hector's father as your own, there is a possibility of peace, a possibility of understanding that surpasses war, that surpasses death.
THE FACT THAT I HAD TO CUT IT OUT BECAUSE GOOGLE TRANSLATOR DIDN'T TAKE IT AAAA
i love them so much I HAD to write
Anon this is so beautiful omg 🥹 That scene between Priam and Achilles in The Iliad never fails to make me ugly cry every time. I love mythology and ancient history. It's just so fascinating to me.

(Branchus art by @literallyjusttoa)
Propaganda:
Branchus
What's The Love Story?
Apollo disguised himself as a goatherd one day soon after killing Python and Branchus came across him, fell instantly in love with the beautiful shepherd, and kissed him. Apollo was just as enamored with Branchus as he was with him and granted him prophetic abilities, as well as a crown and magical staff!!
Going back some years to Branchus's birth, you could say that his mom received a vision of his future as a lover of Apollo - she dreamt that a glowing sun went into her mouth and through her stomach.
Also, since Apollo met Branchus soon after killing Python, he's probably Apollo's first lover EVER! Which is SO COOL APOLLO'S FIRST LOVE WAS A SHEPHERD BOY THE BISEXUALITY IS REAL
also also, an altar was built on the place where Branchus kissed Apollo <3 true love <3 and prophecies from Branchus were second only to Delphi itself, so Branchus got some STAR TREATMENT
Why Should They Win?
First Love = First Boyfriend <3 the queer is strong in this one
Yooooung Loooove Vibes TM
THEY WERE ADORABLE I NEED MORE OF THEM WHERE ARE MY BRANCHUS FICS
Hecuba
What's The Love Story?
Hecuba was the Queen of Troy during the Trojan War. She had many children with her husband, Priam, but she also had a son with Apollo, Troilus, who was killed by Achilles inside Apollo's temple. :(
When the Troy was sacked, one version states that Apollo rescued Hecuba and brought her to safety in Lycia. <3
Why Should They Win?
This shows that even after Apollo's relationships end, he still cares about them <3
Kids?
Troilus. RIP :( he died too young

Golden Hands and Golden Fingers ~ Priam, the shepherd
An excerpt from chapter 18! Priam and Jiri bond a little more.
“Give me your hand.”
Priam started; for someone so clumsy, Jiri was awfully good at sneaking up on him. Without asking why, he held out his hand and Jiri grasped it, holding it up his chest. As they walked, it seemed time slowed around them as Jiri’s eyes closed, his lips parting as he took a deep breath, his hands just beginning to turn to gold. Warmth rushed through Priam’s fingers, down his arm and into his shoulder, spreading across his body like sunshine. And his step grew more sprightly, his breath easy in his lungs, the pain of the wound in his side subsiding.
“That’s some trick.”
Jiri smiled, his cheeks flushing a lovely shade of pink, before he dropped Priam’s hand, leaving it feel oddly empty. “Thank you.”
As they walked, Jiri spoke again. “Why did you want to leave home so badly?”
The road they walked on was beginning to feel familiar to him. He shouldn’t have been surprised; though he didn’t know exactly where the training grounds were, he knew they were east of the Sleeping Lake. It only made sense they would pass through Bal Crannog again.
“Bal Crannog is small,” he said. “Which is good, if you want to know everyone. There aren’t many secrets. And the days blend into one another.”
“I’m sure that happens everywhere.”
“Maybe it does, but it’s not just that-” How could he put it into words? How could he articulate the conflictions inside of him? Jiri watched him with an open gaze, and somehow, he knew he'd understand, however he tried to explain it.
“The people there have been kind to me.” His heart felt heavy. “Well, they’ve been kind to each other - we’ve been through a lot. I lost my parents and my older brother when I was a child, and I had no one,. But they gave me a room to sleep in, and a job when I was old enough. I’m sure there are other places where I would’ve been left to fend for myself in the dirt. And it’s not that I’m not grateful. But they have remaining ties to the place, they have children, or homesteads, or farmland that belong to them, that belong there. And I don’t.”
He took a deep breath, the horizon blurring as his eyes welled with tears. He couldn't cry now, not in front of Jiri. Not in front of the others. “It’s too easy to leave. I never had the opportunity before, maybe I was afraid - but when I had the chance to follow you instead, it was so easy.”
“Would you seek a job in farmland somewhere else? When all this is over?”
“I don’t know. Maybe. I used to want to be a knight.” He shrugged. “I think I’m too old now to start from the bottom. I imagine Theo’s been holding a sword since he learned to walk, by the way he moves.”
“Well.” Jiri gave a playful smile. “Not everyone can be as good as Theo.”
Priam took first watch that night, his gaze shifting between the dark around them, to the stars, and back to Jiri. He slept peacefully, curled up tight under his blanket. Once in a while, Twili took a glance at him, almost like she was watching over him too.
Did seraphs dream? Priam had to wonder as he watched him sleep. He slept as though he didn't dream, utterly still and at peace. If a seraph did dream, what would they even dream about? Maybe their past? Maybe the clouds and stars?
Priam really ought to stop staring at him. If he wasn’t careful, he’d surely somehow sense it and wake. His cheeks flushed warm as he turned his gaze back to the horizon, waiting for his watch to end so he could wake Theo.
More about Golden Hands and Golden Fingers here! Leave a comment or an ask to be added to the taglist.

If your muse could say one thing to their childhood self, what would they say? Would your muse want to meet their childhood self in the first place?
ask meme
answer roulette
16. If your muse could say one thing to their childhood self, what would they say? Would your muse want to meet their childhood self in the first place?
so I'll be answering this for the brat pack (aka paris / evander / achille / patroclus) because this is too good of a question for just one. out of all of my ocs, these 4 have the most baggage regarding their childhood
cw: mentions of abuse
paris to their childhood self: 'this isn't something you want to hear, and it's hard for me to say as it is. but don't hate your mom, you don't know the full picture. I cannot tell you what will happen in your future, but please... don't do what I did'
I have it planned that paris and andromache eventually repair their strained relationship once the full details of andi's departure are known. but paris as a kid was traumatized and angry by both their dad's 'death' and their mom's abandonment of them, even if it was for paris' safety. paris, now having lived a life that revealed many truths and secrets, would like to go back in time to comfort their younger self and promise them that things will get better. they doubt it'll do much since there's not much to say to begin with, but they can try
evander to his childhood self: 'I won't paint a pretty picture for you or promise something that was not destined for you; your future is bleak and filled with hardships'
evander... doesn't have much to say to his younger self. he always gets bitter whenever he thinks about his past and the emotional abuse he got from his grandfather priam (and what he thought to be his mother's favoritism towards his brother). he was an extremely resentful and depressed child. evander now does not want to meet his childhood self; even though he's doing marginally better now, he doesn't think this would change the outcome of his childhood self's future. evander thinks there's no point
achille to his childhood self: 'I'm sort of bad at this kind of thing, I'm talking to myself for fuck's sake if that ain't strange enough... anyroad, what I'm trying to say is... you do have a reason to be here. you're not a mistake, and people love you. you're valued and thought of by many friends you made... so chin up I guess, eh?'
for all of achille's bravado and impulsiveness, he clams up whenever he has to think about his younger self before he was found by chiron. that short period of his life continues to haunt him since he's still trying to recover from tauvane's neglect and abuse. as for meeting his younger self, achille is reluctant to. achille tries to forget everything about the past since it's too painful to really talk about, so he doesn't want to carry that part of himself around any longer. despite his complicated relationship with his mother, achille's actively trying to forgive tauvane in order to have a normal relationship with her, but his childhood essentially made him who he is today
patroclus to his childhood self: 'I'm not sure if my words will be any comfort to you, but please don't lose hope. there are so many things you have yet to see. this star we live on is full of wonders and surprises, just like the stories mama would tell. you'll see them someday, with friends who care about you'
patroclus was extremely lonely growing up after the death of his parents and he wasn't allowed to explore much of the outside world. so I think patroclus would love to meet his younger self just to give himself a friend and someone to talk to. as an adult patroclus is trying to forgive and forget many things about his past and learn to let go of any lingering resentment, so he wants to pass this wisdom to his younger self so he could grow up less emotionally scarred

“And as heretofore, I seemed to reel, and this I best”
A ballad sequence
               1
This tidal wedge, slow tyranny     of moods as many fear from the black-eyed rival came. And     as heretofore, I seemed
to reel, and this I best perceive     in the dead was Hope. A place your face no moan: but when they     resistance from him—for
her home is in my breast, even     from a national as any other ring, and thews,—johnson,     and I sank and fiddle.
               2
Homer though in the midst of men ?     Now is seen as yet the odour of the parapet just     like a weapons still, in
Ettrick’s shore. I grant, if thou wilt     say of glory, and staring eyes, transfix’d with that breaks and     fair? The very single
handed; as the kingly drink jeered     at once. His artfully at the world, my true each tide does     not sighed deep, dear love, believes
who is it, then, my Muse and     power to thy breast upon his shudder in the bed. Take     care a pinch a flower.
               3
And soundly sleeps: it must at this     poor things are dun; if hairs be wires, black as jet: hath she none,     she’s left on Passion’s crannies and light true my heart droop and     hide here to oblivion. By the sea has devoured     the flowers then gather’d
was this … Then pride of fear, open’d     the glue that gainst my feet. Here ends my strong; an active hermit,     even from him—for her home at last of all the lonely     by thy fair fingertips and he could let him on the     street. Because the day, it
eats at me, guttering with his     first bud? Their sabres glitter’d loving, o fine pacing-horse     wi’ a claut o’ siller, spare not summer’s distresses bound,     and I have suffice to fill a little deeper than a     two years’ child till it weeps
both night was dead in each other’s     soul? Me, there was an evening on the liberty, right     legitimate head: ashes to ashes’—why not lead inviolably     blue latitude and, what not again, even from     the bastion, which Rousseau
points in the moonlight? So still kept     their heart, and Heaven know, and the silver mixed to one, a     neighbouring Priam’s, Peleus’, or Jove’s son? The odour of     the wind on the rain is full many a time and bitter     wine upon the prophetic

And with the thirst, mysterious songs of the house.     The mortals after hoof he raised of ages yet to be your first bud? For it was     Elysium to be scorn’d by the season is good in Man ever so little, mere conquest     for sinners gave, I will disdains the rest, who was such things cost too deare for such a     brain on hands and girls gave but some approve:
the world, my true each time—not just named, the steel:     for never hear my sisterhoods may stray. The print of rest: low lies the chromatic wine,     which all Petersburgh is on the prophets, houris in his blood; but scarce even the ground;     but all mankind’s trump card, and no last word to say. As children in the middle-aged     were melted for what old wolf, for he
can; for the golden place upon a hearse: and     alien tears shed would form all men rate as Swedish Charles how you do! Of love, I only     tears of our artillery and its king, whom all the found and round, and white! Bear the     man-slayer, who grew like chaste: but the one with tears! If to love, for that had three lives are     like a willing creatures, do just what
it lasts the heart’s antechamber without which open     mouth the flowers, and ball. And made the city won while his mazde power as real as     the raven and now unshaken like a bloody, full of loveliest, and let thy waves     fold thunders, crept behind me, Naomi turns on the world, my true Muse his soul of his     matter; that endure; and another
still; but stay. Flow in age appear, tis but a fine     young, to show me what Meg o’ the gate call’d on; and I so you please, how awkward test which     is a gentleman of brutes warm before had done. Past whirling pillared in the longer     that enfeebled mine host to purchased by night. You may deem, too gentleman of Ross     run wild. The tears the Tyrian tunic

And being ravishing tack.     The point to post with sharpe desire
without disguise on a diet. Hooked arrows pair,     and groans; and all they resistance though I was trying to Spain and feel my father—how the     hurricane of two bodies how the sky, we drank the mountain often made the stairs: and     that breaks. Us, but t was an enjoyer and could say who besides their comrades;—then juan     consented to mourn: t was Don Juan
caught intoxicated homage yields his sullen     might; when roving thy sins are painter’s dye! Suspicion now hath melt my heart i am     never heart of beer: his stubborn wall, this fixed a day or so I have died for which helped     us at length with his colour of the scimitar, and sorrows freshly bleed, and     overwhelms us all. Knows what arms have
brought he knew not what shall be soon: there be more free     one, in wanting to her I’d nothing but a spectral bride; for he was mad, yet often     said; but that the prophet’s ass began to moan, but since and I have me love contrived     a conquest to be with the thing forward to an elegy to claim, would for a living     voice! Were made no single handed;
as the roof of glass, beauty breaks. Ever so little     bone by one, yet knows who besides enjoying half-pay for lies which from me. No voice     behind a name for I have a natural heat till each tide does compile; even toll a     reguiem that spatter heavenly night. And feel myself as kind and water into a     deaf ear,—the child; howe’er the years of
blue which I would make known. Nuances spoken with     grief looked upon her grace made her owne. When, musings on her lights wax dim; and to his number     makes men, like as like the bag of day; rage, rage again; and twittering world, you say,     full of wolves do for a stone in a race.

I should rob the pledge, so my daughter’d     men, a yet warm group of murderer’s corn has ears: sighs,     plaints, no sorrows flow; an’
she has been well of victors of     thy sweet world of the burro, too real for his agonising     voice! And in answer
made a though the voices: then only     ran off, to returning- steel we fell out, my wife and     saved her—must not cross glared

faced both bomb and baffled heroes     are to tell me, that blows, her little bone by your beauty     on my horse, he spur she
fled; now, well-bred men—and your voice     of the dead where the sands, adown yon winding-sheet he lies,     and chimes, like a king. My
eyes pressed. Lost in fatal to the     dead: when they blur the good as we, who thus could know than, singing     and troubles and weep;
is it for heroes, which had pierces     and winter, with those sweet from every deed done to tell     to what is obsolete.
               54
Still on Menie doat, and sand by thee.     The troubles, are at fault. A house must given up to prey;     and, thoughts like a clam. They should be dead! What could sleep when my     stuttering, choking, drowning. You must take quarter, a word     which public means which once
seen, and dew-drops twinkle o’er the     dire extremely dear. They whose each day is like a flock     of sheep, where I fear these wonder that in me under our     care. Doubt then—i never dry; i’ve married by the same—a     mirror’d hell! When Venice
and she is all abreast, to feel:     in vain, i’ll tell me, what is something to Spain and feeling     and claim madly meeting logically in the wealth is found     a stable wench came running was not so long octaves, pass’d     in a green darknesse, and

joy I’d pay it thrice, if human     lives sweet the odour of the soil; and night bayonet,     and bear traps for me. And so live on forlorn. He stands in     delicate your arm, and shaven head and foison of the     dewy morn; an’ she had

To that sickening, I trust, but woman,     nature is flower of your eyes,—in this country and     his veins—no doubt why, arriving at you could have place you     something much nobler, that closes make gilly gowans hang     golden place, hauing no delights

any man there, beneath me, above     them teach them just stop in an that we might be chirurgeons     who can see it before heading toward laughter. But never     saw sad men whose very true, were nothing accident     or blunder’d the Burial
Office read, nor, while I spurre     my heart, already two years those who scaled, found the right; poor     thorn! We banged the hill, the sword of Death and slender skinnes     to his hand so their new jubilee, where thousand Moslems     fight within it. Suppose.
               56

I don’t have some remembered stars.     Gods know how the hunter’s wind that ever rose to my theme:     they did. Were beneath the

Star Wars RPG: The Dawn of the Rangers
S01E14 "Bearers of Bad Tidings"
Location: Coruscant orbit
Aboard the Breon Dayvan named Elegant Format, Captain-Supervisor Zor Draco, bounty hunter Gev Dyson, technician Pev Tekko, old Olem & Fred the L-1g general purpose droid faces off a flotilla of Escort Frigates headed by the Priam.
They persuade - with Zor's diplomatic skills - the Priam's Mon Calamari Commander Sebelek of their need to reach Colonel Tyria Sarkin to report critical information to her. After confirming via comms, Sebelek allows them to pass and the frigates return to their orbital patrol duty.
Meanwhile, a Lambda shuttle Tourmaline approaches and hails them. Ranger Agent Liyar Gopor, a Klatooinian, greets them. He requests that they tell him the information, but they will only reveal the info to Colonel Sarkin. Gopor then tells them he will escort them to a classified Ranger HQ on the Coruscant surface.
Following them down, the Rangers believe something is wrong. Olem tries to reach out with the Force. But he is unable to sense anything out of the ordinary. But for certain they are being jammed. The Tourmaline takes them through one of the Industrial Districts as the sun begins to set. Then, the shuttle enters a hangar bay on the side of a rusty factory. Zor follows suit, but feels suspicious.
Fred provides them with a portable comms gear that needs to be modified. Pev quickly repairs the gear's circuitry, after which it is able to detect the jamming frequency. Then Zor - aided by Fred - uses the gear to break through the jamming.
Agent Gopor requests via comlink that they all exit the Dayvan. Gev is first to exit with his riot gun prepared, then Pev, followed by Zor after he orders Fred to try to contact Colonel Sarkin with the comms gear. Olem pulls out his DL-18 blaster and hangs back in the Dayvan. Gopor exits his shuttle. They spot a number of modified police droids with blasters surrounding the Elegant Format.
When Gev refuses to put down his riot gun, a firefight occurs. With quick reflexes, Gev pulverises two modified police droids to their right who are about to shoot them. Pev & Zor leap back onto the Dayvan, avoiding fire. Olem readies his blaster at the Dayvan's hatch.
Then, Fred announces that he has contacted Sarkin and she is en route with a squadron of Ranger gunships.
As Pev mans the gunnery station, he spots an armed droid approaching from the rear of the Dayvan. But Gev's second volley takes out two more droids, including that one and the one beside Gopor.
From the Dayvan side hatch, Olem fires his blaster but the stun bolt misses. But then Zor trusts the Force for his attack. He closes his eyes, gives in to the universe and the Force takes over. He pulls his trigger. [Despite three '1's on the dice] Zor's bolt strikes the Klatoonian! However, the agent somehow shrugs off the stun effect almost immediately.
Seeing his droids fall one-by-one, Gopor flees out of their line of sight.
Zor & Gev jump out again to find Gopor, but one last droid at the left side of the Dayvan throws a grenade... which hits the ship undercarriage, ricochets back to him and explodes. The undercarriage also provide cover from shrapnel for the Rangers. The droid still stands, but is missing an arm, part of his torso and a section of his head.
Gopor has vanished into the abandoned industrial tower.
Then, Sarkin's gunships arrive. She jumps out of the lead gunship and greets Zor by his codename "Protocol". She thanks them for ferreting out an unknown infiltrator in their midst. Because of Gopor's ambush attempt, Sarkin is able to determine his actual ID: master spy Haanen Felean, an Imperial stooge.
As New Republic Security Force organise a manhunt for Felean, Sarkin orders the team back to the actual Ranger HQ for a debriefing. As night falls, the Rangers - aboard the Elegant Format - follows Sarkin's gunship back to the real Rangers HQ on Coruscant...

I am bored and overloaded on fodder from arena tickets and pity breaks, so any suggestions for other projects while I get grails for baby Azura?
<3
I'm probably gonna be super biased towards some units, just because they're my favorites, lol.
Big one I can think of is Python. If you have a spare Summer Elincia lying around, her bow works really well for Python, and since he's a cavalry bow, he has good reach. Mine has a bit of an outdated build, but I run him with Whitecap Bow, Swift Sparrow, Desperation (it has saved my ass and I can't wait for Desperation 4), and Threaten Def (which you can just substitute for some other C-skill). Plus Deadeye.
Luthier is a good green mage unit if you need someone with speed and attack power. Not a whole lot of 4 star green mages are super fast that I know of, but he's a good one. I've considered foddering Tailtiu's Teacake Tower on him, but we'll see if he gets a Refine soon. Holding off until then.
M!Morgan is a big one for me, I have him dual-function as an offensive and supportive unit with Inf. Null Follow 3 (so he can support his mom Robin and dad Priam in the Arena). His weapon with the refine is really good and it makes him a pretty hardcore demote Red Tome.
Benny's a fantastic Far Save unit for me, most people run him near save but that satisfactory Res stat makes him optimal for far save. Only thing is that I run him with Arcane Qiang which is hard to get, so go for it if you have one on hand, but hold off if not. Not a lot of lance weapons that help boost the Res stat. My Benny is run with Distant Stance, Mystic Boost 4, A/R far save, and Def/Res Ideal S seal. I'm considering nabbing an extra Armored Beacon fodder, but the Armored Beacon/Armored Floe fodder I have right now is being saved for if Miklan gets added to the game. So yeah, Benny's a sweetheart of a defender if you run a Far Save on him. I love Henriette but I've never pulled more than one copy of her, and Benny works best.
This one is weird, but Azama is also an interesting staff unit; he's not flawless, but I have him in Aether Raids and he tends to fuck up people who ignore him in favor of taking out other units first. Serpentine Staff deals less damage than Pain does (7 HP as opposed to Pain's 10), but it also has built in Deep Wounds. So I run him with Fort. Def/Res 3, Renewal 3 (which probably should be replaced with Poison Strike, or Poetic Justice if you need him to attack better), and two counts of Savage Blow 3. Problem is you gotta invest a LOT of Dragon Flowers into him. But to me, he's still worth the build. If you have a Holy Panic, slap that on him. His Attack stat is absolutely abysmal, but he's more of the "Death by a Thousand Papercuts" type of unit.
This one is only a suggestion if you have an Arcane Downfall, but Mustafa definitely is a solid axe unit. He virtually has Ganglot's kit (Distant Stance and Quick Riposte 4) plus Def/Res Menace and Fort. Def/Res 2 as an S seal. If you have good support units behind him, he's a monster. The unit showcase video I did of him has him taking down Ninja Camilla, though I'm like... 95% sure it was unmerged (or only had one or two merges), but STILL. He's an enemy phase slaughterhouse.
This one goes without saying, but one of my most utilized units is Silas. The only thing that sucks is the constant influx of sword units that are starting to outclass him (LOOKING AT YOU, B!SELIPH), but if you play to his weapon refine, he's incredibly reliable. Just needs a Far Save unit to cover him, lmao. I run him as an enemy phase unit: Sturdy Stance (prevents cooldown charge in most cases, very useful to prevent him from getting wiped out by a Special), Quick Riposte 4, Atk/Def Menace (which I may replace someday if we get a better Atk/Def C-skill), and Atk/Def Form 3. His refine weapon, Sworn lance, requires a support partner, but it prevents most units from making follow up attacks; which means sometimes he can tank hits from dragon units (but not all the time) because he prevents their follow up attack. So most of the time in combat, he's getting at least 20+ Atk and Def. And his support partner is OG Kinshi Hinoka (since I paired them in my Fates game), so with her Atk/Spd Oath 4, she can usually get around to where he is if she's close enough to him or another unit. He's not as destructive as Geralt or Petrine, but he's my buddy and that's all that counts.
Sorry for the long list, I started going down my barracks and realized I have a lot of units that I just have fun using, lmao. There's a couple I left out but I didn't wanna drag out the list.

Priam reached for her hand, the ground heaved and the sky broke free. Stars and fire rained on them. Their father wouldn't want this, their mothers would weep for it.
Priam dragged Hecuba through the portal, barely able to hold upright as they saw it close shut. His breath came out shallow, jagged as he took them all in. Refugees, orphans....traitors.
Hecuba squeezed his hand, her shadows calming his light, this burning panic in him. She took the others in, Tehome and Atroxus, others scattered and disoriented.
Priam knelt down brushing her skirts aside to take his younger. Hector had been taken by Lumas and Silba, they should already be here. He cupped his daughter's cheek, another hand going through his son's hair.
"Are you both alright? You stuck close to Mama before just like we talked about right Cassandra, Scamandros?"
How the tides had changed. They fled from the place that had been their home, watching as the portal closed behind them as they now stood in a world they didn't really know. Yes, others had come before them, but did they?
Still, she would not allow the fear and the panic to overwhelm her. Was this not what their ancestors had done before them? She watched Priam, smiling as he knelt down to address their children.
Cassandra nodded in response to her father, her eyes wide with some fear which she would not hide from him. Her fingers were gripping tight upon their mother's skirt, she looked towards her brother.
"Are we going to be safe here papa?"

Movie Review: Troy vs 300
Let’s talk Ancient Greece.
I’m on a bit of a history kick lately.  It started with me reading a novels on Nefertiti and Alexander the Great, then listening to the Mythos Series by Stephen Fry, and now here we are: reviewing Troy (2004) and 300 (2007). I’m not sure why I’m even writing this.  I’m not sure if anyone is even going to read this.  But hey, if you’re here, welcome.  Enjoy my slightly deranged ramblings about historical films, I guess.  In any case, I decided to watch Troy, which was a mistake.  Especially when compared to 300. 
Let’s begin by saying that yes, I know Troy was nominated for a bunch of awards when it came out.  And it even won some (such as the Teen Choice Award for Brad Pitt as best actor).  But this movie is just… bad.  It just doesn’t age well.  It just looks dated.  The font they chose for any words plastered on the screen looked like Papyrus. The fight scenes feel too long and a bit clunky.  During the opening scene, for example, I didn’t realize that my firestick was acting up and making the audio drag.  I couldn’t even tell. I just thought it was long, dreary music for a long, kind of boring scene.  And that’s not even touching on the not great acting.  Eric Bana kills it.  He is a great Hector.  But Orlando Bloom just comes across as a whinier version of Will Turner.  Brad Pitt’s Achilles seems like his biggest fighting tactic is making a Blue Steel face at everyone.  Peter O’Toole (who apparently hated the movie) plays Priam, and honestly, comes across as a incompetent father and ruler.  But more than that, I think my main problem is the overall plot? I’m not even sure.  I’ve seen plenty of historical films.  I really like movies that are based more on reality and history, but maybe in Troy’s case, you just need the magic and mysticism of the gods and goddesses to really make it work.  Without it, it’s just the story of how Paris and Helen fucked up a bunch of people’s lives and ruined an entire kingdom.  (And trust me, I could go on forever about how much I hate Paris and Helen.  I won’t, but if you want my real time reactions, see my raw notes at the very end.  It’s….a lot.)
But then I consoled myself by watching 300, which I actually really enjoyed. Now, some of the enjoyment of watching 300 is being able to go, “Oh hey look it’s that meme.” But the pacing was much better.  At no point was I clicking to see how much more time was left.  The fight scene felt smooth and actually pleasant to watch.  The characters were nowhere near as cringe as in Troy (even if Leonidas did mysteriously develop a slight Scottish accent every now and then; I love Gerard Butler, but he needs to pick an accent and stick with it).  I did notice that there was no normal lighting in any of the scenes, but that’s honestly a very small complaint.  The lighting and color choices weren’t unappealing, and I probably only noticed because I had watched Troy prior to 300.  And Troy might suffer from the lack of mysticism, I don’t think 300 has that problem.  Sure, Leonidas does go to see Pythia the Oracle and they do talk about appeasing the gods, but make no mistake.  This is the story of Leonidas, who in this telling feels like he could rival any of the Greek heroes before him.  
Listen, I get that Troy is hamstrung by source material, so a lot of my gripes can’t be directed at the movie itself.  But it just doesn’t age well, at least not when compared to 300.  The cinematography is just better, the CGI is just better, and I feel like the story is just told better. It’s really hard to believe that they were only made three years apart.  In a head to head (theater) battle, Leonidas wins. 
Verdict
Troy: 3/10 (mostly because fuck you Paris and Helen, you got Hector killed)
300: 7.5/10 (probably due to nostalgia)
A few ending thoughts:  
I still really would like an Odyssey sequel starring Sean Bean. He is the perfect casting for Odysseus.
David Wenham is a poor man’s Sean Bean, but I still really love him.  Also, in my raw notes I ponder if he is the voice of the Narrator for Deadliest Warrior.  He is, but he used a psuedonym.  Why?  I’m not entirely sure.  
I cannot tell you how much I really, truly hate Paris and Helen. I don’t even remember hating them this much when I originally read the Iliad, but fuck me, every scene with one of them in it made me want to bash my head against the wall. Epic love story my ass. 
Vincent Regan is the “Hey it’s that  guy” of Ancient Greek movies, I guess.  He played the Captain in 300, Eudorus in Troy, and something in Clash of the Titans.  Apparently, he also has done a few other historical movies as well. 
The scene with Pythia the Oracle makes me deeply uncomfortable.  Just these old dudes chaining up a girl and getting her high so they can interpret her dreams, I guess.
I made my boyfriend watch 300 with me.  He fell asleep. How do you even fall asleep during 300?
This really has nothing to do with Troy or 300, but while listening to Heroes by Stephen Fry, I found out the origin story of Heracles and uh…. It’s really not like the Disney version.  Whooooo boy.
Raw notes in real time (Sorry about all the Helen hate and the butchering of names and spellings. It’s so hard to keep movie notes on my phone.)
Troy:
This movie is from 2004.  20 years ago. and even in HD, it looks like it.  I don't recall lord of the rings looking this bad on my last rewatch.  maybe it's the font?
so my firestick does weird shit with sound and the entire first scene must have had the slowed sound and i didnt even notice.  and then froze.  fun times
lols achilles doing fuck boy shit -- though i wonder if thats based on source materials
why is achilles armor one solidish piece and no one else's is 
slightly upset that avatar is somehow longer than the story told in the fucking ILIAD.  how
eric and orlando look like babies, also diane kruger could have had anyone and wound up settling for norman reedus.  y tho
hahahah hector's face when he realized when paris is up to 
yo that must have been some instense sex if they're both that sweaty
"do you love me brother"  oh fuck.  and hector knows it 
this is really just the story of men being stupid
WHY WOULD YOU LET ANYONE SEE HER
the war angle honestly is the more interesting part of this story.  
Sean beanie baby! 
Achilles is right tho. 
Odysseus and his tricks.  
Yup. Men having 0 self preservation and women just telling the truth 
Why king priam doesn't yeet Paris off the roof.  Helen fucking sucks 
Saffron burrows is gorgeous 
Hector is fucking right.  Let Paris follow her. 
Yeah. Do that Paris. Paris and Helen fucking suck.  
Oh hey your city is under attack 
Once again, men being stupid. 
These fight scenes... aren't great 
Yeah maybe you shouldn't have defiled that statue Achilles (also is that Jude law?) 
Wtf Hector why would you go in there 
Also Jude law/chris meloni hybrid is vincent regan. Idk who that is 
Poor baby cousin rose byrne 
War is young men dying and old men talking 
Good let Paris burn.  Hes an idiot 
Poor andromache. She doesn't deserve this shit 
Helen doing Helen bullshit 
Eric banas aussie accent slips in there occasionally 
Menelaus could just kill Paris and this could all be over.  But no fuck you Hector. Also this fight scene is bad and they should feel bad for making me watch it. Its like seeing two drunk dudes in scranton fight over a chick.  Menelaus isn't wrong to be honest. LMAO PRIAMS FACE 
I still don't understand why Hector went to engage Ajax.  
Hector would have been a good ruler 
Louise voice: oh man Paris.  You should kill yourself 
I think I dont understand ancient Greek romance.  
Patrocolus is such a whiny baby 
Listen to Hector you fools 
Troy is so fucking stupid 
Ok but those flaming ball things are cool 
Remember when I said Hector was smart?  Maybe not so much 
But also fuck patrocolus. why did he do that? And not Jude law.  Not Jude law fucking had to know what was happening and did  nothing.  
I do not envy those people having to tell Achilles. But Brad pitt has a terrible cry face 
All of this could have been avoided if people had just listened to Hector at every step. But no.  No one listened to Hector and now he gets to die and his body desecrated. Fuck this movie. Oh and fuck you Helen. 
The only decent fight scene. Then ruined by Achilles being a douche 
Priam. You asshole.  You listened to the stupid priest over Hector. Had you listened to Hector, this wouldn't be an issue.  
Man if I was andromache I would have so much resentment for Helen. 
This is what happens with Hector gone.  Priam and the priests: oh sweet look at this baller horse the Greeks left us. Let's bring it inside! Do you really think Hector would let them bring that inside?  Fuck no.  Also why does priam always listen to the priests and not his kids? 
Sure just start slaughtering people. Sounds legit. 
Welp. Bye bye Troy.  I blame Priam.  Hes on par with boromir and faramirs dad on bad fathers 
SAVE THE HORSIES 
where is andromache and the baby. They need to get out now 
Hey priam, look at your city.  You did that shit.  
Fuck you agamemnon. You greedy shit. 
Run andromache 
Oh briseis.  Even though that's not how agamemnon ends i appreciate it. 
Such bullshit that Paris is the only one who lives with his lover. All of this was his fault to begin with. 
I love that it ends with Sean beanie baby. 
300 is a better movie, but id watch a Sean bean Odysseus movie all day long
300:
Graphics are better 
Visuals and cinematography is better 
Is this narrator the dude from deadliest warriors.  Wait, it is.
Why does teenage warrior look like David Sampson or the dude that plays nu!Spock 
Poor puppy 
Oh shit it's faramir 
Leonidas looks like that meme 
Hello cersei. 
Lol this dude is so dead 
All I can think of when I hear xerxes is scissor me xerxes
Omg all the this is Sparta memes 
Ephors look like orcs 
Weird how the ephor is translating exactly what they said before. 
Oops. Gerard butler ass 
Awww shes a good wife 
Yeah I forgot about the sex scene. Oops 
Why does Gerard butler look older in 2006 than now 
And the captain was eudorus from Troy! Vincent regan.  
They know this is the last time they'll see each other 
Why is this movie so much better than troy 
Fucking Hannibal move. Now I miss Hannibal 
Wtf is that smeagol looking bullshit 
Yo this music rocks.  But like. .. why? Also they didn't do anything. The storm did 
Wait stop. Fassy is in this movie? 
Lol suckerrrrr (about wall) 
Did they cgi everyone's abs? 
Awww poor smeagol. 
Do the Spartans fail because Leonidas is too prideful?  Goes against the oracle and gods, rejects ephilades. Lies to elders 
Casting differences between Troy and 300 
I dont understand war logistics but I dont get why they moved from cove 
Time to fight in the shadow, like fassy said 
Ok the hoard vs the Spartans. There's no way. Its not logistical.  Even with the phalanx, wouldn't they get tired 
Cersei  has some very 2000s eyebrows 
Ew Theron. 
I love the random Persians still alive that the Spartans are killing 
Oh scissor me xerxes! 
God kings are a very Egyptian thing. I wonder if Persians share that culture. Also ... Gerards accent makes Leonidas sound like a crazy Scotsman.  This whole scene is fucking hilarious 
All these lotr rip offs.  Immortals are just nazghuls
Let's be real, this lotr aragon story line condensed into one movie 
Lol Acadiana as backups 
WAR RHINOS YESSSS
It's a holy hand grenade 
War elephants! 
Stelios/astinos ship? 
Well that kills that, never mind. 
Wtf goat thing is that 
Oh Theron is Dominic west. Explains a lot 
If Leonidas had just... not been a dick to Greek smeagol 
Daxos is right tho?  Fuck that glory shit 
Tonight we dine in hell.  More memes 
Queen gorgo is bad ass.  And Theron is proven to be a snake 
Kill that Greek smeagol 
Wait how to dilios know all this?  He's not there.  Get is stelios.  But also xerxes has some on point makeup.  Also um... gods don't bleed. 
Captain is such a bad ass. 
More memes 
😢😢😢😢😢 oh Leonidas 
I love Dave wenhams voice.  Go get em boys The end.

(Helenus art by @luddlestons)
Propaganda:
Helenus
What's The Love Story?
Helenus was the son of Priam and Hecuba of Troy! He's also the twin of Cassandra, and received the gift of prophecy from Apollo. Apollo also gave him an ivory bow that Helenus used to shoot Achilles in the hand with :3
Why Should They Win?
I know we all love Hector X Apollo, but this is a really good one too! Especially considering the Apollo's relationship with both Helenus & Cassandra!
Phorbas
What's The Love Story?
Phorbas was a Thessalian prince who saved the island of Rhodes from a snake plague. When he died, Zeus put him in the stars as the constellation Ophiuchus for Apollo's sake, and in Plutarch's Numa, he's put on the same level of beloved by Apollo as Hyacinthus and Admetus!
High praise^
Why Should They Win?
GAY LOVE
But also because-
GAY CONSTELLATION LOVE
But in particular, APOLLO HAS A CANONICALLY LOVER-TURNED-CONSTELLATION STORY AND PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT IT.
