The Possibly Odyssean Task Of Figuring Out What’s For Dinner.

As I am listening to God Games, I has dawned on me that when Athena calls Ares out and tells him to hold his tongue, the following melody is the bit in Warrior of The Mind in which Athena is singing about young Odysseus. Ya know, the “one day a boy came for the thrill” bit.

Actively filing a complaint, going bonkers, screaming and crying. Jorge Riverra Herrans once again ripping our hearts out. He may continue doing so.

Love how the start of Odysseus is the same as the horse and infant

Hera: With war about to break out, we need to start thinking about strategy. In that case, I’ll defer to you- Are there any heroes you have an eye on?

Athena: Oh, I’m delighted you asked!

Athena: (slams two full four inch binders on the table)

Athena: So, this here is Diomedes, King of Argos. Now I know he’s seems a bit young, but he has more experience than most of the others put together! Here, have a look over his resume.

Hera: My goodness, taking Thebes, and at such a young age? That is noteworthy. A good choice, I think. Is there anyone else?

Athena: Yes! This is Odysseus. He is the King of Ithaca and he lies constantly.

Hera:

Athena: It’s hilarious.

Hera: Well, maybe he’s more impressive in person. I’ll just go down and take a peek-

Hera: Athena, I don’t wish to alarm you, but your mortal has yoked a donkey to an ox, and is sowing salt into the beach. Stark naked.

Athena: Oh, don’t worry about that. He’s only pretending to be mad. He doesn’t want to go to war, and is trying to get out of it.

Hera:

Athena: Obviously I’m not going to let him get away with it, but isn’t that clever of him?!

DON'T PANIC ABOUT THE MISSING LIVE!!

They were having internet issues when they tried gaming the other day, and according to my friend, Ithaca also had to deal with a typhoon!

The stream was most likely canceled for these reasons! Hopefully all is well. :)

(Reblog to spread the word maybe!)

Mates take a pill ever so kindly. The stream has been canceled as confirmed by Jorge. It sucks, but it’s something out of his control. I have a suspicion that everyone screaming “Captain!!!” Will make whatever it is more stressful.

Certainly not me…

who else was not expecting the context of this???????

please wait while he travels across your dash, he's on a very important mission

Me on December 25th:

A little reminder that Telemachus JUST got back from his diplomatic mission, found his home destroyed with bodies in the halls, got ATTACKED.

MET HIS FATHER THAT'S BEEN GONE FOR 20 YEARS?? HIS FATHER STARTS SPOUTING OUT THAT THE SUITORS WANTED TO KILL HIM AND VIOLATE HIS MOTHER??

HIS FATHER DECAPITATES A MAN. HIS FATHER DECAPITATES MULTIPLE MEN. HIS FATHER IS BACK :(((

Good theory👍

So

A friend mentioned to me that Poseidon's trumpets mimic Ares' instrument in 600 strike and that Ares might have blessed Ody in the moment (Shout-out @dysphanic-redshift) and asked me why I thought that might be

In the myths, as far as I remember, Ctimene is a Warrior of Ares, while Ody is Athena's Warrior. Since Ody was so close to being reunited with Ctimene, knowing Ares, there was no way Ares was going to let Poseidon interrupt the reunion of his Warrior and his sister's warrior, hence the blessing
