I think Odysseus is the guy everyone else makes talk to the cops when they show up to bust the party.

[byjove]

I think he could do a really good “Hello officer, how are you?” if he had to.

Athena is standing behind him whispering the bylaws into his ear.

Medusa served so much cunt in older depictions with artists getting creative on her monstrosity yet ppl nowadays are so stuck up on depicting Medusa as a generic pretty snake lady that we are limiting ourselves from making unique and terrifying character designs.

Ok but wouldnt it be really funny

[pomorama]

I find it incredibly funny from a meta/author perspective, that Ancient Greece decided to name their protagonist that angers many people “Anger Bringer” but, even funnier, is the in universe understating that anyone who meets Odysseus must have had the thought “oh dear, how unfortunate to be named hateful/hated” and then they have exactly One conversation with him and go “Ah I see now”

For reference, Odysseus’ name sounds very much like the Greek word odussomai, which can roughly mean “I am angry at” or “I am the cause of anger” (or simply “to hate” or “to dismiss”), a fact that is used for ironic effect frequently in the Odyssey.

It’s also specifically stated in Book 19 that Odysseus’ grandfather, a master thief and one who has also pissed off a lot of people, specifically named him this because “I am disliked by many, all across the world, and I dislike them back. So name the child Odysseus.” 19.428

Bro looked at his grandson and thought “Ahaha, this one’s going to be a troublemaker like me. Better get him started early.”

It’s like a terrible allegory for cause and effect or something.

from a classicist perspective i know that the true forms of the gods are humongous but from a person who has good opinions about greek mythology perspective i know in my heart that hermes is 5'2

Ares, staring dramatically at the horizon: We’re born alone and we die alone and this world just drops a bunch of rules on top of you to make you forget that fact but I never forget.

Athena, not looking up from her book: Aphrodite left three minutes ago.

Athena: I have the sharpest memory! Tell me the last time I forgot something

Ares: you forgot me in the Walmart parking lot like three days ago

Athena: I did that on purpose, try again

Honestly it's not as bad as it sounds. It takes the eagles about 2 hours to get to my liver and another 2 to eat it. The whole ordeal is over by one and I've got the afternoon to myself.

Dionysus: Clearly you've confused me for someone who has their shit together, and honestly I have no idea how you did that
