On a call:

Lunae: What else do you want me to say in French?

Anniflama: Guten tag!

Me, confidently: that means good morning you dumbass

I’ve seen some people on the internet misunderstand why artists call procreate a “not professional app”.

It’s simple. It’s not. It is nowhere near good enough for the industry. A professional artist can make professional art using it, yes. But the app itself it not professional. That’s just the person.

Think of it like Microsoft paint— you can see people with the skill for it create absolutely stunning, unbelievable pieces in it. But does that make Microsoft a professional, or even good, art software? No.

So yes, a professional artist can make precessional art in procreate, but that doesn’t make the app professional.

That’s the reality of it. It’s just something you won’t deny or change. Thats why people say the app is not at that level, but the artists themselves who use it are.

Now count how many times I wrote the word professional—

Okay let’s try this again: my last post had a bad take. Author of TsoA and Circe did do research, although I find it questionable: my point is:

It is not a credible source. It’s a fanfiction. Should be read like it. Enjoyed like it. Enjoy what you want but don’t cite them in history lessons or as a “AHA GOTCHA” on others. You are wrong.

Her books took creative liberties. And that’s all good: but they are not credible sources even if she has a degree.

I have an art degree and I am not about to try and convince you Michaleangelo was a twink who simped for Da Vinci.

Bye.

Hey to Percy Jackson fans who feel bad for the odyssey/epic calypso for being cursed

As someone who loves Percy Jackson

Calypso was not cursed in the Odyssey. Or any other myth. That’s a Percy Jackson ONLY version!!!

CALYPSO IS DOING EVERYTHING OF HER OWN FREE WILL.

People and children specifically of tik tok, stop applying your modern views onto ancient texts challenge.

Every Greek hero had slaves and raped (by modern standard) please for the love of all that is ancient either accept that your morality doesn’t mean a thing in this context or get off of the internet.

This was way more strongly worded but I decided to hold back my rage.

Yes Achilles had slaves too and guess what he threw a tempter tantrum when his slave was given to Agamemnon and went crying to his mommy. Odysseus had slaves. Menelaus had slaves. Everyone who meant anything had slaves. That’s how it worked. It’s not good today- but it happened. It’s the truth.

For the love of all Eurylochus bought Odysseus’ sister as his wife.

Odysseus will never become a human again.

That much he knows. He’s cursed a beast. Immortal. Unaging. Watching his loved ones pass away before his eyes. One by one until they forget their ancestor’s identity. And he forgets with them.

He didn’t realise when he started losing that last bit of his humanity. When his body rested in the gullet of a great serpent.

His human mind at eternal rest.

All that is left, is the beast.

When Poseidon uses Horse-Ody to go somewhere what kind of places does he usually go to?

Are there any particular moments when he takes off the covering over his eyes?

And how do he generally takes care of it? I mean does this poor stud even have a place to rest? Or does Poseidon give him food every now and then?

Also was there ever a time when Odysseus cried over his situation (unable to return home or be a man again) and Poseidon saw it?

Yeah sorry for the many question but I'm really interested about this AU!

Hello!!! I am very happy to answer!!! :D

He generally uses him to get anywhere he wants. Odysseus is one hell of a fast stallion. Able to easily cross the seas even through storms and waves. Breaking through them even without Poseidon. He would even bring him on Olympus. Just to brag about his new horse and how he broke him in. This also goes to the next questions!

Poseidon does take the whole bridle off of him, whenever he’s done riding. Being a beast stuck on the sea is a punishment enough in his eyes. He allows Odysseus to roam the sea as he pleases so he can graze on sea grass and whatever land plants are near the waters. Generally he would rest in the shallows. Or — if Poseidon takes him with him on land he would at the very least be kind enough to let the animal sleep for a little while.

And Poseidon certainly witnessed his grief often. Odysseus is angry with it- the months he spent attempting to buck the god off were ones of sheer agony and turmoil.

However Poseidon is not there to witness his worst breakdown since. When he realised his life has been turned eternal and it’s been a long while since all those he loved passed of old age.
