Over and over again.

[vor-leser]

praying to godlike, cunning, long- suffering odysseus, husband of penelope, father of telemachus, reigning kind of ithaca so that i say smart things in my oral exam later and that even if i talk bullshit my professor will believe me and at least THINK i’m super smart

[vor-leser]

im trying to actually make consistent designs for them rn

close-ups under the cut!!

remembering and holding space for how much patroclus loved his nine dogs (achilles killed two of them so they could accompany their owner to hades and some of them nibbled on hectors corpse) <3

Good afternoon for the requests i see you rage of achilles lover and im gonna torture you by asking for a hectorxachilles drawing/nf/silly (bonus points for canon patrochilles reacting to it)

This is my fav ask so far

“it’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance, my queen😌” “prince of troy🤭🤭”

(tap for better quality bc tumblr somehow ruined it☹️☹️)

hey soo i’ve been thinking about sapphic couples in greek mythology a lot recently and since you already posted cassandra and helen art and since i loved that drawing AND i love the way you draw achilles (even though his eyes freak me out but still), may i request some pyrrha and deidamia? (they’re like the only other sapphic couple i can think of apart from helen and cassandra, so i love them)

deidamia and her beautiful muscular creepy-eyed girlfriend who she loves (definetly NOT achilles of thessaly)

[vor-leser]

they’re the only thing on my mind right now

[vor-leser]

Every major Achean hero from the iliad because i love drawing funky facial features :>

[vor-leser]

Ok, how is Achilles x Hector not a bigger thing? You guys ship male characters who look at each other but two enemies with an ocean of history between them and who likely went to bed every night thinking about the other in a no-homo way for a DECADE isn't even the slightest bit popular? I know patrochilles is THE shipTM but are there really no enemies to lovers enthusiasts over here to make *some* fanwork of these two?

[vor-leser]

Go, huntress, the stars will lead your way.

[vor-leser]

HIIIIIIIIIII GUESS WHAT IM DOING paris the musical'ing lmao and im microwaving helen this time!! would love to see more of my girl in ur art style shes so exquisite :3

will i shamelessly use this request to dump these old drawings of cassandra and helen? yes, yes i will

like that one line where cassandra says her face is the stuff of dreams??? I know what you are.

I need people to hear me out on these two!!! also we need more ancient greek lesbian ships im begging

[vor-leser]

I love them

Reread Kassandra's scenes in Agamemnon

✨homoerotic grappling✨

something tells me achilles is not doing this to get better at hand to hand combat idk

real und wahrheitsgetreu

i think girlie (noun) is both a concept and a mindset and in my opinion one can safely identify hector of troy as a girlie

 Honestly why believe Homer when he included That Scene in the temple with Cassandra, when this is the same man that wrote that bs version of the medusa myth? It really makes you think if he has something against Athena or whatever (because when you think about it, both of those times happened in Athena’s temple) so coincidence? I think not

While I kinda get what you mean, I'm preeeetty sure the rape of Medusa isn't a homeric or even Greek myth, it seems to come from Ovid, who is an entirely separate Roman poet

When it comes to Cassandra though, I think the fact that it happened in Athena's temple is moreso to increase the severity/ shock of the crime ajax committed, not necessarily a diss on Athena but it is kinda interesting that this kind of stuff always takes place in her temple specifically...

maybe it's some weird symbolic bs because she's a virgin goddess but idk
