me listening to spotify these days : *plays gods by newjeans on repeat*
the empty amphitheatre of a lecture hall seems melancholic in its silence, a hush broken only by the scribbling of pen to paper. he leans against the grand desk, pen dancing across the tattered, old page of the copy of hamlet in hand, leaving inked trails of messy annotations along the lines, specifically under the poignant passages painting the portrait of ophelia. the girl in the water, the weight of unspoken love and the agony of a cursed existence. a sad tale, not unlike hers. macabre though it may be, michael had come to appreciate that in humanity — making art of their plights, words on paper divulging the tragic condition of man. she was not human, however, and neither was he. she was just as much a stranger here as he but he would indulge this facade a little while longer. ❝ come, sit. ❞ the professor waves her in and nothing of his composed, casual tone hints toward an inkling of oddity despite the circumstances, as if she were not bewildered. ❝ i remember all my students, ❞ he says with a knowing smile. in truth, he had been thinking of this girl since the moment he saw her. the curse within her is a dark thing, arranged neatly in place of a soul, and it piques his curiosity in a way few manage; when she enters his line of vision, she appears to him a little blurry, like all things soulless. ❝ i hope the class did not bore you... you didn't show up again after. a shame, really. i quite enjoyed your contributions. ❞
she’d obeyed, compelled to unravel this being’s mystery. because yes, she knew he wasn’t human from the moment she’d met him. come on, no bloody mortal is ever that good looking. not even demigods (and she should know, she’d been with several heroes in her lifetime). what she didn’t know, though, was what type of entities he was. but it hadn’t mattered to her a few days ago because she’d been forgotten by countless supernatural entities in the past and she’d been certain he would be no different. seemed she had been wrong about that.
i remember all my students, he’d said. she remains silent, letting the words sink in. it felt surreal that he could remember her when no one she’d met in a thousand years had been able to. except for her Benefactor. for a brief moment, she wonders where they are now. wonders if they somehow have something to do with this peculiar event. was the professor part of this sick twisted game they liked to play with her ? she shakes her head, trying to make the thought vanish. don’t be fooled, cal. with the way you left things, you’ll hardly see them in several centuries. that was both a curse and a blessing.
❛ you did not bore me. ❜ she assures the professor, setting down her tea on his desk. ❛ however, i am not used to staying. ❜ the sadness in those words was palpable and echoed in those dark blue eyes. there was no point in staying, if she couldn’t leave a lasting impression.
❛ is that so ? ❜ she’s surprised to hear him say he enjoyed her contributions. it hadn’t at all been the opinion of the rest of the class. ❛ I thought my parallel might’ve been too far-fetched, as most do not see beyond the immortal witch façade of calypso and so couldn’t understand how her grief and ophelia’s parallel one another and how both of their fates are closely tied to the decisions made by the people – mostly men – in their lives and thus leaves them with barely any agency at all. the main difference is, ophelia died once of a broken heart whilst calypso had likely known a thousand deaths before odysseus washed up on her shores. ❜
AIYSHA HART as ARIADNE | ATLANTIS 1X04 TWIST OF FATE
❛ you remember me. ❜ she breathes out, her dark blue eyes staring at the professor @sintoknow (michael) with a mix of terror and fascination. she'd attended his lesson a few days ago. just for fun. she was immortal and knew no one she met would remember her as soon as she was out of their sight. that's why she'd spent a good chunk of the 21st century attending classes just for the sake of it, knowing she would never have the occasion to get an actual degree because that would require being remembered. but he remembers her... how? how is it possible? she was so shaken up by this peculiar event, it had been a miracle she hadn't dropped her tea.
switching fc for aiysha hart because of the aesthetic of her character in atlantis

P L O T I D E A S
So far, Calypso hasn’t taken a hold of anyone’s soul yet. And she refuses to do so until… YOUR MUSE enters the picture and suddenly she feels this need to be remembered by this person and yet she still can’t bring herself to take their soul and make them go through a life like hers, a life where they can’t be remembered by anyone, even their loved-ones. But then, YOUR MUSE needs saving and this is the only way she has for saving their life. The bargain is struck. YOUR MUSE’S FATE IS TIED TO CALYPSO’S WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT. They are now fated to live as this immortal being who cannot leave a mark on this world…unless they strike a bargain with another mortal as well. They resent Calypso for that. But what happens when the very being who damned you is also the only person who remembers your name and the one person who comes to know you better than anyone?
Everything stays the same except for the fact that YOUR MUSE DOESN’T HAVE TO SUFFER THE CURSE OF NOT BEING REMEMBERED, they were just rendered immortal through the deal they made with Calypso.
YOUR MUSE IS A FORMER MORTAL who struck a deal with the same entity as Calypso did in the past.
Calypso discovers that YOUR MUSE IS A SUPERNATURAL BEING who can somehow remember her. They seems to be the only being, aside from her Benefactor, who can actually remember her face.
YOUR MUSE WASHES UP ON CALYPSO’S ISLAND prior to her deal with her Benefactor. As the island of Ogygia exists outside the constraints of time and space, people from all time periods and all universes can wash up on the island. They just need to have been lost at sea in one way or another.

FACTS
Calypso used to be a powerful sorceress of the sea who was condemned to be trapped on the island of Ogygia forever for the support she provided her abusive Titan father Atlas in the war against the Gods. Atlas threatened to harm her mortal lover if she didn’t perform a spell for him. But what she didn’t know, though, was that he’d never planned to return them to her. Instead, as soon as the spell was done, he killed them in front of her to teach her a lesson about caring for humans.
The island of Ogygia exists outside the constraints of time and space. Therefore, people from all time periods and all universes can wash up on the island. They just need to have been lost at sea in one way or another.
While trapped on Ogygia, she fell in love with about every person who washed up on her shores. She tried to make them stay, tempting them with immortality, but they would always refuse her. They had families and loving partners waiting for them back home. Whilst she understood their desire to go back to their families, each goodbye would always leave her more heartbroken and lonelier than before she’d known them.
When she was at her lowest mental health-wise, a powerful entity sought her out and offered her what she’d been craving more than anything in the world: freedom. But it didn’t come without a price, of course. It came on the condition that every person she would meet in the outside world would forget about her the second she was out of sight. At first, she thought she could bear it. So, she agreed. She sold her soul to this entity she’d come to call THE DARK because they would always visit her after dusk, under a sky devoid of stars, draping themselves over her like a comforting blanket. The Dark calls her their Starlight because she is like a north star walking the earth. Her hair glows under the moonlight and she is also the sister of the Pleiades who became a constellation.
As time passes, she comes to resent them, for confining her to this infinite solitude. But while she resents them, she also cannot bring herself to stay away. She comes to realize that she and The Dark are the same. Both unable to leave a lasting impression on the world. And so, despite the resentment, she comes to find solace in their company and believes they share an intimate bond... until The Dark grows frustrated by the fact she isn’t breaking apart and surrendering her life to him like they’d hoped to.
She leaves and, once again, she is lonelier than before. Death starts to feel appealing but spite keeps her going. She refuses to let Them win and so she lives as much as she can and as loud as she can. She falls in love many times and every goodbye is heart-wrenching. Still, she has hope. Hope that, one day, someone on this earth will remember her.
Centuries later, she comes to the striking realization that the only way she will be remembered by someone is if she strikes a bargain with a mortal, like her Benefactor had done with her (because she was made into the entity she struck a deal with and has now the power to strike bargains with mortals too).
I struck a deal with the devil masquerading as a God I sold my soul now I'm all alone with my bruised and battered heart
