Welcome to my little corner of Tumblr! Call me @ninadove, Thinker of Thoughts and Rotater of Blorbos. I write, draw, and scream here about the things I love! 💜🕊️
The Professor Layton series holds a special place in my heart, and Miraculous holds a special place in my brain. Sometimes you’ll also get rabid literary rambling. Sometimes I’ll combine all three into my own Frankenstein’s Sentimonster — I’ve got the range.
My asks are always open if you’d like to chat! I am terrible at checking my dash, so don’t hesitate to tag me.
what if you were a paleontologist and you spent FOUR YEARS working on a BRONTOSAURUS and just when you think you’re gonna get a MILLION DOLLAR grant and GET MARRIED a random woman at a golf course dents your CAR and lures you to CONNECTICUT to help with her new pet LEOPARD named BABY and you wind up NAKED in her FRILLY ROBE and her dog steals your DINOSAUR BONE and you have to run through the COUNTRYSIDE chasing a LEOPARD AND A DOG in the DARK and you don’t know there’s a second WILD LEOPARD from the CIRCUS and then you go to JAIL and she pretends to be a GANGSTER and successfully ESCAPES OUT A WINDOW and your FIANCÉE comes to bail you out but the cops think your name is MR. BONE and your new girlfriend drags the KILLER LEOPARD into the jail on a LEASH and then you get DUMPED and get the MILLION DOLLARS and confess you LOVE the CRAZY GIRL all in the last five minutes? and then she KNOCKS OVER your BRONTOSAURUS.
Put in the tags the completely finished (whether cancelled or wrapped up on its own terms) TV series that has YOUR perfect ending, however you define that
Please don’t include huge spoilers for the specifics of the endings, and it would also make me happy if people don’t use this to talk about the shows whose endings they hated
not every mutual fits neatly into an archetypal medievalism but there are some mutuals that im like yeah addressing you as “my liege” would come strangely naturally
The Odyssey (/ˈɒdɪsi/; Ancient Greek: Ὀδύσσεια, romanized: Odýsseia) is one of two major epics of ancient Greek literature attributed to Homer. It is one of the oldest surviving works of literature and remains popular with modern audiences. Like the Iliad, the Odyssey is divided into 24 books. It follows the heroic king of Ithaca, Odysseus, also known by the Latin variant Ulysses, and his homecoming journey after the ten-year long Trojan War. His journey from Troy to Ithaca lasts an additional ten years, during which time he encounters many perils and all of his crewmates are killed. In Odysseus's long absence, he is presumed dead, leaving his wife Penelope and son Telemachus to contend with a group of unruly suitors competing for Penelope's hand in marriage.
The Odyssey was first composed in Homeric Greek around the 8th or 7th century BC; by the mid-6th century BC, it had become part of the Greek literary canon. In antiquity, Homer's authorship was taken as true, but contemporary scholarship predominantly assumes that the Iliad and the Odyssey were composed independently, as part of long oral traditions. Given widespread illiteracy, the poem was performed for an audience by an aoidos or rhapsode.
Key themes in the epic include the ideas of nostos (νόστος; 'return', homecoming), wandering, xenia (ξενία; 'guest-friendship'), testing, and omens. Scholars discuss the narrative prominence of certain groups within the poem, such as women and slaves, who have larger roles than in other works of ancient literature. This focus is especially remarkable when contrasted with the Iliad, which centers upon the exploits of soldiers and kings during the Trojan War.
The Odyssey is regarded as one of the most significant works of the Western canon. The first English translation of the Odyssey was in the 16th century. Adaptations and re-imaginings continue to be produced across a wide variety of media. In 2018, when BBC Culture polled experts around the world to find literature's most enduring narrative, the Odyssey topped the list.
