Happy Friday 13th 👀 (close Ups Under Cut)

the hate I have for achilles like do I have tsoa yes have I read it yes do I like it yes its a good read do I like achilles out of that book and in it no because I read to much mythology before the book I just can't see him the way so many fans of the book do like he isn't someone ro idolised I feel so much for troilus he went somewhere he knew to be safe and was killed in his father's own temple NO WONDER APOLLO WANTED ACHILLES DEAD I WOULD TO achilles deserved to die a worse death then what he got and I'm not sorry for saying it

Greek Mythology PSA

As much as I love Achilles and Patroclus from TSOA: Achilles is NOT someone to idolize.

The story of Troilus was an extreme reason: when he turned 20, he would supposedly touch the wall of Troy and it would save this. Athena told Achilles this and he went to ambushed Troilus by the well, in fact pulling him by the hair off his horse.

But Troilus was extremely beautiful- so much so that he was said to be the child of Apollo. Achilles was overcome with lust and tried to make advances.

Troilus escaped his grasp and ran to his fathers temple for shelter. There Achilles caught him again, had his way, and beheaded him.

ACHILLES WAS A GROWN MAN AND TROILUS WAS SAID TO BE A CHILD, MOST SPECULATED TO BE AROUND 12.

Was he a great warrior? Yeah. Was he a murder, r**ist, and p3do? Also yes.

Why are there so little stories about Apollo and Hyacinthus?

Wait, okay so:

Personally feel like their are too many people in the fandom who are just here for the shipping :/ sorry you dont get neil like I do I hope you feel better

BIG NOTE: THE FINAL MATCH DOES NOT COUNT.

alright guys aftg kid oc coming soon juts as soon as I figure out how the fuck to draw a racquet whys it so fucking hard, (having to use fucking reference for the arm position which is hardly how'd one would hold a racquet.

HOW DOES ONE DRAW A FUCKING EXY RACQUET OR LAC4OSE RACQUET!!!

GIYS HELP DO I AMMKE A AFTG KID OC LIKE JUST SOME KID WHO THE FOXES TAKE IN AND THEN THE MONSTERS + KATELYN BASICALLY BECOME THE KIDS PARENT GROUP LIKE I ALREADY HAVE AN IDEA OF IT AND STUFF

I don't know if I should make it true tho help

to add to this the fact that neil most likely had the lingering knowledge that he wouldn't make it to twenty like even if he never met the foxes or Andrew, also to add onto the andrew thing he and aaron never would have started to fix their relationship, jean wouldn't have ever left the nest and would have most likely committed (don't quote men on this next part I haven't read tsc) because he promised Kevin he wouldn't try but Kevin's dead so.

also just think about how wymack would never find out that Kevin was his son, he would never know the son he should have raised

Do you ever think about the fact, that if Riko had actually killed Kevin instead of just breaking his hand that Neil would never have met Andrew. and that Neil would fade from the world without a soul to remember him, and Andrew would forever be a monster to everyone who knew him. Or are you normal??

THIS those kids are so fucking interesting to me like those four where screwed the moment they were all born, aegon was like most likely an infant when people started to think about him being on the throne instead of rhaenyra like their all so tragic helaena being cursed to know that she and her siblings and children will die is just *chefs kiss* aemond losing his eye due to claiming a dragon agted being bullied for not having one, daeron being sent away to live at old Town not really knowing his siblings all that well but willing to die to protect and avenge his family is just *cries* alicent the mother out living all of her children (and I think grandchildren 2) and hating the colour green, the same colour of the dress she wore to be her own person to defend her children and fight for them

like obviously the team black/team green divide is stupid and missing the point of the dance and like obviously the show is written with a rhaenyra bias but likeeeeeee. HOW can you not be endlessly compelled by how irretrievably doomed the team green kids are. how can you not be intrigued and endeared by how narratively fucked these poor stupid teenagers are. pov: you were born to be a weapon in a civil war started by people who don’t care about you. that is the reason for your existence. you are obviously fated to die young and tragic and everybody knows it. you are a team green kid.

me with dias in we'll be fine eventually who is meant to be very smart but I'm not a smart person so

you know the thing where a character is so full of trauma that their personality and personhood is buried deep within and it takes time, space and healing to coax it back to the surface, little by little? very good trope. i think it most often manifests as a character finding that they're kind and gentle and lovable. which is great. love a healing narrative.

anyway the thing about neil josten is that once you manage to override his instincts to flee long enough, is that he turns out to be such a bitch (affectionate). he's spent so long avoiding notice and slipping through fingers like his life depended on it (because it did), but when he's forced into the spotlight he's going to make it everyone's problem. catharsis and schadenfreude two for one deal

I think that aemond was born before the wedding in ep 5 but in the show aegon is 20-19 so aemond should be 17-16 and helaenas only like two years younger than aegon so she'd be 18-17 purely basing this on the fact alicent was pregnant with helaena when aegon was two but like the timeline is such a mess because even of they followed the book timeline daeron was 13 when the war started and 16 when he yk but he was always the same age as jace in the book the two were fed from the same wet nurse.

I know people have made and it puts aegon as 2 in the year 115ac and helaena as 1 in 116 it doesn't show aemonds birth year but in the book it was 110 so in fire and blood helaena was born 109 so in the book the two are a year apart while daeron and jace were both born in 114 but it doesn't make sense for them to be born that year in the show as alicent was pregnant with helaena in 115, so the book years of ppl being born is as followed

aegon-107ac

helaena-109ac

aemond-110ac

jace-114ac

daeron-114ac a few months after jace

luke-115ac

the dragon twins baela and rhaena-116ac

joff-117ac

aegon iii-120ac

viserys ii-122ac

jaehaere and jaehaerys-123ac

maelor who isn't in the show yet-127ac

the war starts in 129ac and ends 131ac

the show has fucked up the timeline that I cry for ppl who make ocs cuz they won't ever get a proper age range, so with daeron I'm going a whim and saying alicent got pregnant like a month or two after rhaenyras wedding to laenor in year idfk atp but in the books it was 114

Why is it making it seems like they never met with daeron lol. Did he not atleast come to aegon and Helaenas wedding what about for the birth of the twins

for the caitlyn lovers (me) ^_^
