please wait while he travels across your dash, he's on a very important mission
To those who haven’t listened to Get in The Water without headphones, or who have but haven’t noticed this…
When you hear the voices Polites and Eurylochus’ shades, you hear Polites in your right ear and then Eurylochus in your left.
Then you hear Anticlea and Odysseus’ fleet in both ears.
I’m unwell :)
Current mood: the long, belting note at the end of the Love in Paradise “cliff scene”
You mates know the one
YES LETS BRING MORE ATTENTION TO THIS STUFF! ILIAD! ILIA THE MUSICAL LETS GIVE THIS MAN SOME IDEAS (if he wants to focus on Epic though that’s ok)
*slips Jorge 20 bucks*
So how do you feel about the Illiad?
So mates…
How’re we feeling?
90BUCKS FOR PHYSICAL IS AWFUL
Nintendo my darling you’re getting a bit too confident with those prices why don’t you lower them and then we can talk?
Do you mates think Odysseus or Telemachus will use the “close your eyes and spare yourself the view” line with Penelope before or after the uuuuh suitor slaughter?
Plagued by the 600 souls of my fleet
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
Another thought on Epic the Musical, do you want to know one detail that kills me every time?
If you look at the titles of the songs, the ONLY songs that are named after characters are songs that are named after monsters that are trying to slaughter as many people as possible (like Polyphemus, Scylla, and Charybdis). No human character or even any god gets a song named after them, only the monsters do.
But (MINOR SPOILER AHEAD), do you know what song 38 is titled? Odysseus.
Odysseus, the man made monster, who has become something so far from his own humanity that he is counted within the ranks of the terrible monsters that came earlier in the story. Odysseus, who will absolutely be trying to slaughter as many suitors as possible when he returns to Ithaca.
It's such a small detail, but it gets me every time I think about it! Because not only has Odysseus become a monster in the eyes of the other characters, but he has become one in the eyes of THE VERY MUSICAL ITSELF!
AHHHHHHHHH!!!
Not Odysseus’ “Maybe you can learn to forgive” line being in the same melody as “ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves”.
Bless Jorge and the cast, they’re so sweet and silly.
Greek mythos brainrot is so bad that Odysseus king of Ithaka can grow mushrooms using my neurons
