For Regulus

Ever day she goes to the highest point of Ithaca looking for his ship looking for him

Isn't it freaking adorable how both Odysseus and Penelope could remember down to exact detail what clothing she had packed for Odysseus before he left for war even 20 years later?!

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

And she packed them herself. She didn't use the help of any servant or slave to do it. She wanted to prepare her husband herself. What is even more is that all the clothes were of vibrant colors which had me thinking;

What if Penelope deliberately prepared vibrant colored clothes for Odysseus solely so that she could see him from afar for as long as possible?! And man I can so imagine her doing the same! Like standing on the top of the hill where the palace is, wearing a vibrant dress that floats in the wind, holding baby Telemachus in her arms and watch Odysseus's bright tunic on the ship and Odysseus turning his head to look up at that aetherial figure on the hill almost leaning over the ship to see her JUST FOR A LITTLE LONGER until he cannot see her anymore and this is where he keeps looking at his island becoming smaller and smaller to the horizon, shedding tears of goodbye

Man ninjas are cutting onions around me again!!!

It’s cannon that half of one of gorgug’s shirts is like a toga on Riz, so imagine how big the full one is.

Now I’m picturing the bad kids using one of Gorgug’s shirts like a straight jacket on Riz when he over works himself

thinking about the Bad Kids sharing clothes. like

- gorgug’s hoodie is basically a communal hoodie at this point (everyone is seen wearing it at some point) (it’s like. a dress on riz)

- adaine has a scarf that everyone likes to steal because it’s so soft (fig showed ayda a picture of boggy wrapped in it and ayda cried. real tears)

- the girls + riz love to steal fabian’s muscle tees (they don’t fit gorgug) (fabian buys one that’s way too big for him so that gorgug can steal it) (he pretends not to realize that it’s way bigger than his other tees) (cause he’s embarrassed that he did something nice) (the others clock it immediately but pretend they don’t for fabian’s sake)

- kristen has the ugliest socks (the kind that go around each toe like gloves) but they’re so comfortable (everyone’s ashamed to be seen wearing them) (but they’re so soft and warm and they might be enchanted??? no one knows) (if someone is seen wearing them they just exchange grim white-boy-tight-lipped-awkward-look-away nods and don’t say anything about it)

- riz has a scarily large assortment of hats that no one’s ever seen him in (no one knows why, or how, he got them) (they’re in every hat style imaginable) (usually one of the Kids will just borrow a beanie, but kristen has tried a cowboy hat on occasion) (it was slapped off of her head immediately)

- fig has tried to make her leather jacket a communal jacket like gorgug’s, but it “doesn’t fit anyone else’s aesthetic” so instead she always has a pair of (not fingerless) gloves with her in case anyone gets cold

Also Telemachus

Penelope during the Ithaca saga:

it’s 2028. trump is dead. elon is dead. zuckerberg is dead bezos is dead they’re all dead

Tis the season even if I’m Pagan the tree is still up

They’re a year apart it’s confirmed in trials of Apollo in the first book

So this woman had two children with the same god in two years time I needed a book about her yesterday

"I want x spinoff, I want a book about y"

I want to meet the woman who had not one but TWO kids with Hermes. Two kids so close in age and are so alike people just assume that they're twins, two kids who are chaos personified, who singlehandedly run the camp shop, who are in charge of the biggest cabin at camp and look after their equally chaotic gremlin siblings plus every unclaimed kid at camp like Lou Ellen a daughter of Hecate and another being of chaos who learnt it all from them, and who take every opportunity to fuck shit up, to prank their camp mates or to steal shit. Their last name, which they get from their mama? Stoll by the way. Neither child notices the pun.

I want to meet Mama Stoll, who saw the chaos, who saw the bullshit Hermes brought into her life the first go around and said tonight's the night let's do it again. She is either the world's greatest cat burglar who enticed the god of Thieves or the messenger god was enchanted by the best god dam delivery woman on the planet. There's no in-between. It was just a bonus that her surname was the perfect pun. Her and Hermes laugh about it. In my head, it's all canon. Regardless, she unleashed two agents of unlimited chaos onto an unsuspecting world, and I love her for it. I take my hat off to her, I kneel before her.

Oh, and the oldest kid, Travis? He's dating a girl called Katie, who is the daughter of Demeter. Her last name? Gardner. Fucking Gardner. She has a sister called Miranda Gardiner, by the way. Mama Stoll finds it hilarious. Her sons still don't get the pun, but at least she gets on with her future daughter in law like a house on fire.

Everyone thought that Walter had a crush on Kermit but he actually wanted to be Kermit because what was the better way to get to know the cute assistant Thant to work with him

🥲🥲🥲

i’m so fucking sad. i cant stop thinking about jason reaching elysium, expecting to find leo there, so excited to finally see him again, finally have him in his arms once more, only to find out he never made it there. how he must’ve cried, thought leo ended up in asphodel or chose rebirth. how he’d thought he’d never see him again, how leo must’ve become this new person who had a whole new life, who wouldn’t even know who he- jason- was.

how once more, he had lost leo, and this time, permanently.

(edit cause no one can see my reblog: i totally forgot apollo told him so take it as an angsty au or something whoops)

NEWSIES REFERENCE?!?!
