#FULL SPEED AHEAD

[myeyesandheartadjust]

Moments From Epic: the Troy Saga That Shall Live Rent Free In My Brain

The opening lines of The Horse and The Infant

"Who do you live for? Who do you fight for? Who do you wish for? Who do you try for?"

"AND TELEMAAACHUS!!!!!!!!!"

The overlapping of Zeus' and Odysseus' parts

The entirety of Just a Man

"So full speed aheaad!!!"

When Eurylochus first appears

"Watch where the birds fly. They will lead us to land!!!"

"Give me til sunrise, and if we don't return, then six hundred men can make this whole place burn!!"

"I had a challenge, a test of skill. A magic boar only the best could kill. One day a boy came for the thrill. A boy whose mind rivalled the boar's own will."

"Cause you're a warrior of the minddd!!!!!"

"Nah, don't be modest, I know you're a goddess. So let's be honest, You are Athena!! Athena!! Badass in the arena. Unmatched, witty, and queen of the best strategies we've seen."

I need "Ithaca's waiting~, my kingdom is waiting~

PENELOPE'S WAITING~ For me!"

Injected into my goddamn veins. I don't even have a lover but as soon as you hear that lyric, you just fucking MISS HER.

Penelope is just a name at this point. We've heard it said before (still with extreme longing but that's a different ramble) but we as the audience of this musical have not met her yet. But you feel that excitement and utter joy at the thought of seeing her once more. Joy for this woman we don't know. Just how he says it tells you that this man would do anything ("horrendous horrifying actions" type of anything) to see her again and keep her safe/happy. You just sit there loving her just as much. Love that he would kill you for even having

With the first two lines, it's his men echoing his sentiment: Excitement to go home. But at Penelope, it's ALL those voices together with no echo. Penelope isn't waiting for them like their homeland is, they don't feel that way for her. But Odysseus' adoration is so profound that it needs multiple voices to even release it. Even the fact that the chorus is silent at "for me" is telling you that the fact that she's waiting is what's most important. PENELOPE IS HIS HOME. He's "just a man, She's everything" type of adoration!!!!!! He truly would trade the world to see his son and wife!!!

Even with how he says "Full Speed Ahead" after that kind of drifts off like he's already daydreaming about it and I'm just a fucking MESS. He daydreams in the Odyssey already and I love it so much.

I LISTEN TO THESE PARTS OVER AND OVER! IT IS WHAT REVIVES ME!

#“I FUCKING LOVE PENELOPE!” *Gets shot in the neck with an arrow immediately by Odysseus for my hubris and thinking I deserve her* #and he's so right. I do not deserve her. “Nobody” does🥹 #I will never get over his devotion to her. He's Besotted. Enamored. Adoring. Lovesick. Obsessed. AAAAAaaaaAAAAAnd SO AM I! #I understand him completely for it. I too would kill for Penelope. I would do so many things for Penelope. She'd swindle my stuff #And I would let her. #Penelope~ You want my credit card info???? (*˘︶˘*).｡*♡ Penelopeeeee~ #I LOVE THEM SO MUCH #crying shaking throwing up #odysseus #odypen #penelope #epic the musical #full speed ahead #epic the troy saga #Mad rambles #shot by odysseus #essay

Listening to full speed ahead and the difference between how odysseus addresses eurylochus and polites is WILD

You can hear the absolute adoration in the way he exclaims polites's name

No wonder eurylochus mutinied

#i hate the crewmembers but #listen id have mutinied too #im literally your sisters husband #we're brothers in law #eurylochus #polites #odysseus #epic the musical #epic the troy saga #full speed ahead

AND ITHICA'S WAITING

MY KINGDOM IS WAITING

PENELOPE'S WAITING

FOR ME

#epic the musical #full speed ahead #man i actually really dislike odysseus but once i started seeing him as a clever charismatic ruthless man who's willing to put aside #the rules of chivalry and honor because he was drawn into a war he didn't want to go to because he'd have to leave his wife and newborn #well #he became infinitely more interesting #and this song man #ugh i love when there's the trope of a man against the world who just desperately wants to get back to his family #the odyssey

okay since I've finally decided to speak then i just want to talk about the line from "full speed ahead"

Eurylochus:

We don't know what's ahead

Odysseus:

Give me til sunrise, and if we don't return

Then six hundred men can make this whole place burn

i mean burn? man are you sure? yeah i got that it's just sort of metaphor BUT just imagine this

Soldier:

Commander! the sun is already rising but captain and Polites haven't returned yet what we are going to do?

Eurylochus:

we need a fire.

Soldier:

you mean torch? in order to go and search for captain and Polites?

Eurylochus:

...

Soldier:

...we need fire for torch right?

Eurylochus:

...

Soldier:

........ right?

Eurylochus:

make this whole place burn

what he says: I'm fine, Polites

what he means: When does a comet become a meteor? When does a candle become a blaze? When does a man become a monster? But Ithaca's waiting (six hundred men) My kingdom is waiting (six hundred lives at stake) Penelope's waiting for me (deep down I would trade the world to see my son and wife) (the problem's not the distance, it's what lies in between) (forgive me, I'm just a man...)

when songs in epic reference each other alsjdkdkkd

#the beginning of remember them where the “we’re up we’re off and away we go” sound plays #because like #they have to keep going #FULL SPEED AHEAD #and the “just a man” part in my goodbye what if i never recovered #just a man was all about how he was only human #so he’s not strong enough to defy the gods and spare this child #but in my goodbye #athena is saying that because odysseus is only human he is not strong enough to do what needs to be done #but like #aksjksjdjdhk #the transformation from “my humanity makes me too weak to spare him” #to “my humanity makes me strong enough to spare him” #epic the musical #epic #epic: the musical

okay wait but can we talk about Eurylochus and Odysseus' conversation in "puppeteer"??

i mean okay, everyone feels this tense and bitter notes, BUT i just thought about the comparison between Eurylochus' first appearance and this one conversation. in both cases there are Eurylochus' "captain" and Odysseus' answer "Eurylochus" BUT in "full speed ahead" at the "Eurylochus" part the are many voices, crew's voices with Odysseus. AND in "puppeteer" there is no choir, just Odysseus' soft tired but at the same time firm voice.

yeah, i know it's kinda private conversation but it still gives this feeling of.. loss? i mean, more than 500 men gone
