Not Odysseus’ “Maybe You Can Learn To Forgive” Line Being In The Same Melody As “ruthlessness

HOLY SHIT IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE OMG OMG OMG OMG

Everyone who either has listened to the Ithaka Saga already or who plans on listening to it PLEASE DO NOT GIVE SPOILERS. Despite the Odyssey being a well known tale, we don’t know Jorge’s plans with the saga. Please please PLEASE be considerate.

“Watch where the birds fly, they will lead us to land, there we’ll hunt for food my second in command”

Says that tactful and guileful man, gentle, royal, rugged, Odysseus, MASTER MARINER, and King of Ithaca.

Ody…my guy…

The birds will lead you to food.

Seagulls gather in flocks above water when there are fish near the surface.

FISH YOU CAN EAT.

BUDDY.

RAMSHACKLE A FISHING ROD. FOOD IS RIGHT THERE. USE SPEARS IF SO DESIRED.

I adore Odysseus, but I’m losing it actively, I do believe.

I had a dream last night where Jorge uploaded a secret saga before Ithaka, and Hera had her own song chastising Zeus for God Games, and Odysseus and Athena reunited with a We’ll Be Fine reprise.

So do with that what you will

Do you guys think Odysseus could do math? Discuss, go crazy.

I can only really listen to the first three Ithaca songs in full because the last two absolutely shattered every fiber of my being.

Everytime I go back home to my cat I feel like Odysseus returning home from war.

no you don't understand

HES JUST A MAN WHO FINALLY MADE IT HOME AFTER BEING AWAY 20 YEARS FROM WHAT HES KNOWN HES JUST A MAN WHO FOUGHT FOR HIS LIFE WHO BECAME THE MONSTER TO SEE HIS SON AND WIFE HES JUST A MAN

Tomorrow, Odysseus will be home.

Yeah okay Odysseus became a monster in the end but that didn't stop him for asking poseidon to have room to forgive and it didn't prevent him from stopping when he was stabbing Poseidon with his own trident the moment that Poseidon yielded. Polites never really left him. In the end when he was a monster he still tried to meet the world with open arms
