So I’m a huge Achilles and Patroclus shipper

And I love them

And recently, I found a musical about these two

It’s called: Aristos: The Musical

It is really good. I’m in tears when I’m listening to it.

It surprised me that how little people knows about this brilliant musical.

It is completed, and have 18 songs.

I highly recommend this to anyone who loves Achilles and Patroclus or just simply interested in greek myth.

Whether you’re a fan of the iliad or the song of Achilles, I’m sure you’ll love this musical.

Loved this so much, I kept (most of) the og tags.

Most straight relationships in media: “Even though there's no development and no chemistry and we don't look like we love each other that much we'll date because we're straight and that's what we're supposed to do. Right??”

Most queer relationships in media: “If saving you is a sin, I'll gladly become a sinner.” — “Dying together also included a ‘together’.” — “You changed my destiny from the moment we touched.” — “I would know him in death, at the end of the world.” — “The hero and the warrior were like the sun and the moon...”

#fucking queer people man.... #why must they do this to me #you reached your hand out to me on that day #you changed my destiny from the moment we touched #you're the most important person in my life #if saving you is a sin... i'll gladly become a sinner #goodbye. kiana #honkai impact 3rd #hi3rd #svsss #the song of achilles #lmk #kiamei #bingqiu #shadowpeach #lgbtqia

Romancing Mr. Bridgerton

Season 3

Can't wait to see how the story progresses!!! There's definitely some tension to sort out and a good dose of common sense ought to set Colin right.

Reblogging cause "histories" isnt the only thing that shapes a culture nor is it the only thing that gives it value. Myths tell a far bigger story than recorded history in the case of many ancient civilisations.

"in the original myth medusa was actually -" "well in the homeric version, achilles wasn't -" "no but in the real myth -"

read what you have just written. in the myth. myth.

these were not real people. myths change and shape to their contemporary situations with every retelling. whoever was telling or writing the myth put in or took out something different and new every time it was told. "accurate myths" are not a thing, I'm sorry. 'accurate to homer's version'? sure, go nuts. but they were never histories, and modern adaptations are not wrong for being different.

#the myths aren't a plaything #you won't see people messing with Hindu or Chinese mythology so don't do it on Greek mythology as well #the stories have balance that's why they work #they have the gods and creatures but also humanity simple life

I just finished reading this masterpiece. It totally deserves all the fame it gets!!!

When A Thousand Splendid Suns said like compass needle that points north, a man’s accusing finger always finds a woman; and when it said, a man's heart is a wretched, wretched thing. It isn't like a mother's womb. It won't bleed. It won't stretch to make room for you; and when it said, I will follow you to the ends of the world; when it said it always falls on the sober to pay for the sins of the drunk; when it said And I wrote you. Volumes. Volumes; and when it said but the game involves only male names. Because, if it's a girl, Laila has already named her; when it said One last time, Mariam did as she was told; and when it-

The true blasphemy of literature is the romanticization of romance. They make it beautiful—all soft words, and elegant lines—and enchanting, with magic sparkling in the margins.

And you can feel it in the depths of your soul, an unexplored ocean of laughter and tears and dreams all melded together.

The yearning of a kiss that brushes against the steady and so so warm pulsing beat of life—against the smooth skin of a lovers neck. The desperation to touch another being and feel that they’re alive, right there next to you—right there, and never leaving.

To love and be loved is a jewel among treasures and all that we each seek—all that we each desire.

It burns and it burns and it burns.

“I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”

“Come home and break my heart, if you must.”

“Occasionally, Fate pulls itself together again and Time is always waiting.”

“And perhaps it is the greatest grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone.”

“By you, I am forever undone.”

“One word from you shall silence me forever.”

“A heart’s a heavy burden.”

“My sweet nemesis.”

“If you have to go, you know I will go with you.”

and then?

and then.

The book is over.

And you remember that love like that doesn't exist.

Not in the real world.

And all you can do is cry.

I think my heart beats different now. I'm still learning the tune, it's more lively than the one it made before.
