Welcome, my friends!

This is my wonderful Epic The Musical Ask + Fanart Blog! I get silly with it! Here I draw, collaborate, and do a fair bit of roleplay as ✨Your Fabulous, Fantastical One And Only HERMES, Darlings!✨

Asks: Closed. Stop by again later!

• Ask rules: Hermes will reply as soon as I, Loki, can get him to. (fickle man!) and will be accompanied by a little doodle of him by yours truly

• If your Ask is directed at I, Loki, rather than Hermes, please specify!

• And as always, no slurs, no bigotry, no nsfw. This is not an exhaustive list. Thank you.

Commissions: Closed, check other blogs! (Cartoonboingsfx, ObscureAges)

Art Trades: Closed

Tutorials: Upon request! Inquire within

I reserve the right to refuse service to, block, report, or otherwise cut contact with anyone for my own comfort and safety.

I also have another blog TheObscureAges where I draw Myst/Riven fanart. So if you know what that is (Or want to learn) go check it out!

fanfic is extremely hard

Nice Odyssey fanfic

[thatonehermesartist]

Is it still too early to talk about how unpleasant the attitudes of the fandom were towards the heavier subject matter we were given in the Ithaca Saga? Because listen I'm well aware a large majority of y'all are kids but holy shit the fandom was AWFUL during the release. There was this very puritan mindset that you just HAD to make it clear you didn't condone the fictional rapists. As if the protagonist hadn't been literally slaughtering people since The Horse And The Infant, as if the musical gets anywhere near as gory and tragic and dark as the actual fucking Odyssey.

Eventually I got bored of seeing it on my dash and left this blog a ghost-town of unanswered asks. I may be back later but it probably won't be as Hermes themed as it is now.

i dont want to be in a fandom that critisizes the choices of fictional characters like they are human beings. i want to see THEORY and ANALYSIS and STORY STRUCTURE and CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!! I WANT PARALLELS AND MOTIFS AND VISUAL CUES!!! They're not REAL they are TOOLS so stop acting like they are people who made bad choices and should be punished. of course they made bad choices!!! that shit is funny and cool to watch!!

Somthing something Eurylochus becomes much more interesting and actually way less annoying as a character in Epic the Musical if you see him as a personification of the entire Crew's doubts. A foil to Odysseus, meant to oppose him and voice differing opinions. And not as just like, a literal person who just won't listen to his own king.

if you're in Europe PLEASE consider signing the Stop Destroying Games initiative. the deadline is July 31st 2025. i've posted about it before; it aims to create legislation for publishers to stop killing the games you pay for and to provide an end-of-life plan for live-service products. thank you!!!

Petition: Prohibit publishers irrevocably disabling video games they have already sold

The government should update consumer law to prohibit publishers from disabling video games (and related game assets / features) they have a

Uk petition for same thing by same people

[wafflecat2]

For those who don't know or got miss info:

This basicly regulates publishers to make a version for the said games to still be able to play, even if the official servers/online has been shut down.

This does not mean that every game has to be single player games, but make life-service (gacha, mmo or similar things) games still be playable.

Another Ao3 Scrape???

And this one demands your full name and date of birth before you can enter it.

So this is the original scrape that everyone is (rightfully) upset about.

And here is a new one. I don't know what all they got but if you had any work on the archive between the dates listed, it's probably safe to assume they got some of yours.

Anyhow. Remember to report the datasets if you think your copyright was infringed!

How to Submit Copyright Infringement / Art Theft

Restrict your fics to the archive. Glaze, and if possible, Nightshade your art.

Fuck generative AI, and let's call this what it is. Content theft. IP theft. THEFT.

This absolutely sickens me. I feel violated. I have over 100k words on AO3. Each of those words was a labor of love. I don't want my work feeding AI slop. I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

mucking around with epic hermes

[thatonehermesartist]

Okay, this isn't from Epic the musical. It's actually from a project my friend and I are working on called Absolute Desolation. It's a story in which the gods are forgotten, dying. The rapture has come, humanity is in chaos. One god remains trapped on earth, mankind's messenger and guide. Though given recent events, he may be just as lost as the mortals he serves.

Hermes.
