thinking of achilles and patroclus finally meeting in elysium after thetis marks his name on their grave;
achilles jumps at him and presses his nose against his like he used to in their youth. patroclus holds him, and achilles hides his face on his chest and sobs profusely. achilles cries and cries and cries, asking for forgiveness. patroclus just holds him close, reassuringly, "there's nothing to forgive"— and how could there be? achilles' love for him was so big that it even made the gods fearful. achilles finally looks at him, with tears in his eyes.
he smiled at me, and his face was like the sun.
sobbing crying screaming ripping my hair out throwing up bleeding internally banging my head against the wall taking a bath with a toaster rn
Patroclus and Achilles from The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
Paraphrase of J.C Leyendecker’s “Romeo and Juliet”
Listen, I’ve said this before but The Song of Achilles from the POV of Achilles would literally not be a work of art. No ‘half my soul’ this ‘golden urns’ that. No. Hell no. It’s a furry little journal with a heart shaped lock he keeps under his mattress called Diary of the Specialest Boy in the World and let me tell you it’s dumb. Achilles is so dyslexic he mainly communicates in stick people, for one thing, and for another his poetry about Patroclus is cringe AF. The nudes he’s sketched of Pat? Also not that good. There are no secrets at all in the diary, it just has a little lock so he could give Pat the key. Patroclus read it once and took a shot every time Agamemnon was spelled a new way and had to hide the damn thing upon his beloved’s return from battle and come up with yet another excuse for his day drinking.
That being said I live for first person Achilles POV fan fiction. Live. For. It.
me: *finishes a book*
me: it's time to go on tumblr and reblog every post about the book
Stop fanfictions and posts where Achilles calls Patroclus "Pat". Achilles would never call Patroclus "Pat". Achilles is the only person in the world to pronounce the name Patroclus well, to detach the syllables well, not to say it at full speed until it is just an almost inaudible word. He pronounces it with love and care, and Patroclus loves it. So Achilles would go on forever, pronouncing his name as if it was his favourite word - and it probably is. No diminutive. Just Patroclus.
Achilles didn't fight for glory, for honor, or for the Greeks. He fought to die. He fought to die only to be reunited with his beloved, Patroclus. And when he died, he died smiling, because he knew he'd meet him soon.
*crazy sobs*
If you ever feel stupid with your ideas, remember that someone actually made a movie about the trojan war in which Achilles is straight.
oh, another popular tragic mlm ship? look me in the eye and tell me they’re not just another achilles and patroclus. another merlin and arthur. another sirius and remus. another neil and todd. tell me it’s not just another golden boy and his seemingly mundane best friend. look me in the eye-
ok u know that line "if only i could, i'd make a deal with god, and i'd get him to swap our places'??? yeah imagine that as achilles thinking that a few days after patroclus died
Achilles and Patroclus sketches!
STOP THIS IS SO CUTE
Patroclus: If I died how much would you miss me?
Achilles: It’s cute that you think dying will get you out of this relationship.
we often talk about how painful it is to read The Song of Achilles when you know how it ends but we don't talk enough about how it must have been for people who didn't know it, like can you imagine how they probably felt when they read Patroclus' death ??? Achilles' grief ??? Achilles death, Patroclus having to wait for so long before being able to find peace and to see his lover again ???? that last part when they meet again ???? can you imagine the feelings, the pain, the sorrow, the tears ?????? i wanna give them a hug
sam reid and jacob anderson as achilles and patroclus would go SO hard like i'm going insane. bonkers even!
