Love how “Luck Runs Out” is just.

Eurylochus: I have some concerns

Odysseus: Well Don’t

#Hands down favorite song from this new EP #Ocean Saga #Epic the Musical #it’s not like Eurylochus was offering useful advice. I love him tho. He’s valid

So I love House because it's one of the only shows I've ever seen that acknowledges how hard life can be while also having fun with it all the way down. He makes Wilson a fun video in the c word, like seriously.

And the inherent complex morality of how screwed up the characters are. Like how they deliberately hurt others, or accidentally do, and how all of those motives are not always but often the same motives that drive them to do their kindest acts. How hard it is to show up and how fear and pain make us act out. How showing up and connecting is the key

Something something bad and good are not opposites something something reasons to live & fun in the darkness something something fear of death, fear of being alone & fear of being in pain vs. the euphoria of knowing & loving & experiencing

it's just so human

Something I like about epic the musical is that it Gives it's changes to the original text an actual Purpose

( The first couple paragraphs are basically a rant regarding retellings. If you only want to hear about epic Skip to paragraph 4)

1. I am a bit annoyed by the lack of. Understanding as to why RETELLINGS aren't the most historicaly accurate things in the world. Sorry to break this to you, but that's both just how they work and I would guess how they reach success. Ancient Greece is a much different culture than our own, And most of us would be terrified to actually live back then. When you are Trying to create content That is based on ancient Greece And you want it to be successful/ At least reach a wide, and notably, MODERN audience. You're likely going to have to take some creative liberty And change a few things. Don't get me wrong, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LIKE RETELLINGS KNOWING THAT FACT ( Me personally, I'm not the biggest fan of Miller's novels Even though I do like epic) BUT IT IS SOMETHING TO BE AWARE OF. And because of that I don't think I would ever expect a retelling to be perfectly accurate And I don't. I had interest in mythology LONG before epic the musical But I didn't actually read the Odyssey until getting into epic. I did not expect it To be just like the musical, I knew Odysseus was going to be much more of an asshole, along with other characters. The odyssey and epic are different pieces of media to me And I am not less of a mythology nerd for liking epic ( Though I will admit that sometimes I take tiny little fun facts of mythology And like to think of them in the context of epic, but that's just for fun.)

2. The Only time being a fan of retellings is wrong as if you genuinely believe they are perfectly accurate And refuse to listen to anything else ( Which has definitely happened, And mythology nerds have the right to be annoyed at that)

3. Some people only like to consume real mythology media, Others like both real mythology and retellings, Others only like to engage with retellings (I would hope they have the self-awareness to know It's not real mythology, From what I've seen some do and some don't, Unfortunately)

4. Ok. now on to what the title of this long ass rant says

I like that epic the musical Retells the story, Not only to both cater to modern audience But Also with its OWN purpose of man versus monster.

Obviously, this is not the point of the original text. Mythos Odysseus does not give a single fuck About the stuff that epic odysseus does. I don't know why the creator Decided to rewrite it this way, (If he's ever said why let me know) But I would assume he wanted to make something about the oddessy And this was simply a very creative way to Translate that for modern audience.

I like this because, yes, holy damn. It does have changes from the original text. But it's not JUST changing it. It's changing it with a purpose

It feels reminiscent of some kind of Dramatic play. the way that epic characterizes.

Polites' kind nature is Representative of the Concept of being merciful Represented in his lines such as " This life is amazing when you greet it with open arms" /"There is so much guilt inside your heart, So why not replace it?"

While in contrast you have eurylochus with more ruthlessness and cautious nature, this is Found in some of his lines such as "You rely on wit, and people die on it" /"we don't know what's ahead" / "I say we strike first. We don't have time to waste so lets raid the place-" /"Let's just cut our losses, You and I and let's run"

And then you have Odysseus, the man/monster. The first act of this Musical is his internal struggle With what He should be On that scale. And the other characters Represent this struggle in the song monster

" Is the cyclops struck with gilt when he kills, is he up in the middle of the night? Or does he end my men to avenge his friend and then Sleep knowing he has done him right?

When the witch turns men to pigs to protect her nymphs, is she going insane? Or did she learn to be colder when she got older and now she saves them the pain?

When a God comes down and makes a Fleet drown Is he scared that he's doing something wrong? Or does he keep us in check So we must respect him and now no one dares to piss him off"

He then Applies this to himself

" Does a soldier use a wooden horse to kill sleeping trojans cause he is vile? Or does he throw away his remorse and save more lives with guile?"

And this marks his turning point of deciding that Ruthlessness It's ultimately worth it if it means Getting home, as aeolus says "The end Always justifies the means"

It's in my opinion, a very creative way to go about retelling a myth. Is it accurate? Absolutely not. For example, circe (From what we know) is not protecting When she turns men into pigs, For all we know, she could just do it because Shits and giggles.

Her character and most others in epic is changed from the original. But it's not ONLY changing for the sake of apeling to the modern Western audience and being successful like Many other retellings. It is also and mainly changing for the sake of influencing the plot that Jorge Rivera herrans crafted For the sake of Retelling epic. It is creative and I enjoy it despite knowing it's not accurate.

#epic the musical #odysseus #the oddyssey #tagamemnon #the iliad #greek mythology #again you do not need to like epic the musical or any other retellings #you are allowed to only like greek mythology itself #as a history enjoyer i understand the frustration and think its COMPLETELY valid to be annoyed when someone uwu's a figure #hell i would be annoyed if someone did that to the EPIC THE MUSICAL version of odysseus #he's still an asshole he's still a killer and a liar in epic just a lot more guilty about it then he would be in the oddessy #if all retelling fans had self awareness that its just a retelling and didn't “soft boi” either myth or retelling #i think we'd all be much happier

Headcanon:

Gwen accidentally called Rio Mom. Gwen cringed but Rio smiled.

George and Jeff got along pretty well even watch sports together.

Margo and Peni are basically partners in crime. They even went as Men in Black on Halloween.

Fan Canon:

At the time when their children became the new Spiderman Mile and Gwen semi-retired.

Mayday Parker is Charlie (Miles and Gwen daughter) mentor.

Gerry (Jess Son) is Max's (Charlie's Brother) mentor.

Gwen works as a music teacher and plays at a Jazz club. Miles works at a graphic design company.

Charlie has become the new Ghost-Spider while Max is Kid Arachnid.

Max is a good dancer thanks to Gwen and Grandma Rio.

personally i think they’d be the kind of people that say “i’m retired now” and then show up at a crime scene five minutes later

also they better show us some peni and margo interaction in btsv or else!!!

#also gwen as a music teacher is soooo valid #ghostflower #gwiles #atsv #ask

feeling bad about my art lately. will probably not post for a while. but i wanted to at least dump some stuff here before i retreat into my hidey hole

#hivemind tv #riley savage #graydon weaver #hmfcu #quadeca #jane remover #eden burke #my art #2023 #fanart #doodles #its like. augh. longtime fleouriarts followers are familiar with my eternal tango with posting art online #doing this since i was 11 has like rotted my brain and made me rely wayyyy too much on external validation to motivate myself #and every year or so it gets bad enough that i take a break. but the break usually only lasts a month before i miss the feeling #and come back and then the cycle repeats #its probably worse now bc this is a fandom where getting seen by the creators is not really that hard #so there have been times where im like 'well idk if i wanna draw this. but if i do maybe hivemind will rt it :-)'#NO!!! THATS NOT WHAT ART IS ABOUT!!!!! i cant keep letting myself get addicted to the numbers going up man i gotta get out of here #and i was reading a quad interview from around when idmthy got released. cus hes also brain poisoned like this. but he managed to get out #and now just kinda comes online to release music and then leave #i need to be like that. i need to take a break from art posting thats so long that i come back as a changed man odysseus style #idk. its been so long since i drew stuff that no one gets to see but me. all the art i keep to myself is just out of embarrassment #i need to relearn how to draw stuff just for the love of creation and not “maybe people online will like this one”#or “this new thing came out i need to prove my love of it by drawing it”#sometimes it leads to good art but more often than not it just makes me feel worse #whatever. if any of yall are in the hivemind jane or quadeca discord i MIGHT still post stuff there. but otherwise ill keep to myself and m #friends for a while i think #woooooo this is queued to post while im in orgo lab everyone wish me luck with my thin layer chromatography

Piracy this

Piracy that

WHAT ABOUT DVDs?!

Like there’s BOUND to be so many discarded dvd’s at thrift stores and other places. Heck there’s stores that SPECIALIZE in this stuff.

Plus, there’s at least a handful of systems that are still available or you may already have that would be able to run a DVD.

If we all collectively said “Fuck you” to streaming services and started investing in DVDs again, they’re gonna have to reconsider their prices.

The only sacrifice I can think of is how I’ll be able to watch shows like Good Omens and Hazbin Hotel, but I’m prepared to make that sacrifice.

Also, can’t forget the aesthetic of having dvd cases full of dvds.

That’s just my take on streaming services increasing prices.

#the same can go for music because I just realized my Spotify student discount is no longer valid #dvds #dvd collection #dvd #dvd player #dvd set #piracy #the old times #not really THAT old since they still sell Dvds right?#ahahaha #…right?

Here I am, just having my heart squeezed out of my eyes at the end of chapter 24 of gtn when Gideon is watching all the intimate cav/necro interactions and thinking about Harrow, but at the same time, I can’t help but imagine the whole preceding duel scene as a series of Pokémon battles.

#gideon is definitely a pikachu #the fight theme music is definitely playing when Camilla climbs up on the table to duel Marta #this HAS to be a thing #tell me this was not part of the writing process inspiration #i need validation #the way this book makes me feel is just so many layers of complex #tlt #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #yes it’s ok to fight me about who is which Pokémon

a list of things EJ Caswell deserved to hear this season. It’s really not that hard Tim.

I’m proud of you!

I understand you’re busy. I won’t pressure you to do ___.

I can see you’re under a lot of stress. How can I help you?

Your stress and anxiety are valid.

As a first time director, did an amazing job on directing the play! given how this was thrown in you last minute, with only two weeks to prepare and no supervision or guidance or help to assist you in the process, you pulled it off and did a truly exceptional job at that! You should be proud of yourself! I am proud of you!

I’m sorry you’ve been busy this summer. I can see you’re doing everything you can to try and make this work. And I appreciate that.

You are worthy and loved and always have been, regardless of what external sources say or don’t say.

You don’t need your dad’s praise or validation to prove your worthiness or competency at anything. You already have that within yourself.

Your dreams are valid and you deserve to pursue anything your heart desires, regardless of how lucrative it is

#ej caswell #hsmtmts #someone support this boy already!!!!#tell him he is loved #and worthy and valid #tim 👀👀👀#!!!!#it’s NOT that hard #high school musical the musical the series season 3 #ej caswell defense squad #s3 #portwell #mine
