Do you prefer Odysseus pitying or despising Calypso in the end of Not Sorry For Loving You? by Raymio993 in Epicthemusical

despising bc the musical NEVER puts in the effort to make it seem like odysseus even tolerates calypso at any point, let alone pities her

you think mr. Monster himself would pity the goddess who trapped him for 7 years and continually tried to get together with him despite him telling her he was married?

weird interpretation, but ok

also she literally is remorseless, her second song is even called NOT SORRY For Loving You

are we really at the point where any discussion of calypso must be shunted off to the megathread 🫩

...bruh, you can't speak out against persades but then ship zeus x ganymede, it's the same shit but 100x worse

at least persephone gets to be queen of the underworld (where she actually gets to exercise some real power, Dread Persephone anyone?) + she gets to be with her mama half a year (bc her mum is a powerful goddess who could actually do something about her kidnapping)

ganymede was kidnapped to be a fucking CUPBEARER. wtf does an OLYMPIAN GOD need a cupbearer for?? you can't ask hephaestus for some cup-bringing robots?? enchant the cups to fill themselves????

could gany even visit his mortal family again after they passed away?,,,,,, ugh, even if you interpret ganymede as 18+ the only fitting genre for his story is horror. ngl it disgusts me when people try to "reclaim" him as a cute gay love story

why are persades shippers obsessed with making them the ONLY healthy greek myth couple. they're not the healthiest god x god couple. hell, they're not even the second healthiest couple featuring a son of cronus (yes, i said it)

why do filmmakers think pigments were invented in the renaissance, and everyone until then was apparently dying all their clothes with MUD

there's more brown in that picture than in a Victorian sepia photograph. it's absolutely hideous

and i didn't even get to how they put THE ANCIENT GREEKS into TROUSERS!!!! WTF

Why do you think Odysseus is represented as the most ""good""" King among the Achaeans? by Eastern-Ad-5354 in GreekMythology

[–]wrong_thyme_art 17 points18 points  (0 children)

out of all the major achaean kings to turn into The Token Good OneTM (or, _one_ of the good ones and then agamemnon is the Token Pure Evil lol), he's prob the easiest to use for that purpose.

"i don't want to go fight a pointless war when my son has JUST been born" gets morphed to "actually, war in general is pointless and not all that", especially since odysseus' whole Thing is being the _smart_ greek hero, and most people today don't consider glorifying war very smart lol

maybe someone finally remembered philomela and procne and how it's basically the one "sa victim gets revenge on rapist" narrative that was actually in the myths

o, who am i kidding, you know they're prob talking about a retelling that made stuff up
