Am I getting a good grade in tumblr mutual?
You can only reblog this today.
reblog for extra stabbing
iwtv is great because sam reid was like “ever since I was a little boy I dreamed of being lestat” and eric bogosian was like “the most erotic experience of my life was watching a dracula play and I want someone to bite my neck” and assad zaman was like “i think I should get to have a threesome with both daniels” and no one stopped them and jacob anderson didn't say any of that but he did deliver a performance too good for the emmys
Now that the Thunder Saga is here, No Longer You is SO much clearer!!
Jay finally gave us the first four lines of the chorus vocals at the end, because they help interpret Tiresias's first verse:
"I see a song of past romance" -> "Siren Song" -> the song Suffering, in which "Penelope" sings to Odysseus
"I see the sacrifice of man" -> "Scylla throat" -> the song Scylla, in which Odysseus decides to let Scylla kill six men so the ship may pass through
"I see portrayals of betrayal and a brother's final stand" -> "Mutiny" -> the song of the same name, in which the crew betrays Odysseus and Eurylochus (who Odysseus calls "brother") stands against him
"I see you on the brink of death. I see you draw your final breath" -> "Lightning bolt" -> the song Thunder Bringer, where Odysseus is nearly killed by Zeus and is almost drowned, and in which he sacrifices his crew (further cementing him as a monster)
If you watched the live stream, you'd also have seen Jay mouth along to the very final part of the chorus, which I have long suspected (and now know!) to be "Od-y-sse-us," in the Danger Motif, foreshadowing his monstrous, vengeful presence in the song of his name.
That means that the chorus' only other two lines must connect to the time in between the end of this saga and the beginning of his revenge--if anyone has any new ideas as to what they are saying, please share!! Isn't it so cool how the sagas are so thoughtfully connected???
isn't it insane though how schizophrenic people are viewed as violent and dangerous by the majority of society when in reality schizophrenic people are nearly 14 times more likely to be on the receiving end of violence than to be the perpetrators...
Odysseus crew: *watching him from the afterlife*
Elpenor: Look, he's hunting down the suitors! He's gonna kill them all!
Eurylochus: Maybe you were right, Polites. Violence has only lead to more violence. Perhaps the Captain would be better off showing mercy before he goes too far.
Polites: Are you fucking kidding me?! You heard what they were planning to do to Penelope and their son!! He should butcher every one of them!!!
