Okey but imagine what it must have been like for everyone else outside of Achilles and Patroclus in the Trojan war
“Great! We’ve got Achilles here, we’re saved! But who’s that other guy?”
“Right, that’s Patroclus, Achilles’ emotional support human”
~
“Help I’m dying! Achilles help me!”
“Hold on, that guy is standing too close to Patroclus”
~
“Odysseus, Achilles is being unreasonable again.”
“You brought Achilles here??? What did I tell you? We reason with Patroclus and then Patroclus looks pretty and Achilles will listen”
~
“Patroclus died!”
“Ahh, dam it, now we’re gonna loose the war”

One of my favorite kinda returning jokes in The Song of Achilles is how bad Achilles and Patroclus are at keeping their relationship secret. 
Odysseus says he’s heard that they always share beds together and Diomedes jokes that he didn’t even know Achilles was ‘into girls.’
Like.. did everyone in the army know, or was it just a select group of guys? Because I think it would be hilarious if only a handful of the guys realized they were dating while everyone else was just like “Man, Achilles and Patroclus do everything together. Like hold hands and share bedrolls and even share their clothes. And I once heard weird noises come from their tent. Weird. But since they took Briseis in, that must mean they’re into her.” Meanwhile Odysseus is doing everything in his power to repress his laughter.

When the war becomes too tiring and the men become too weary, it is up to the kings to lighten up the mood. Thus stands Odysseus, once again recounting the story of his scar. Everyone knows it by heart, but still they listen. It will be a long day tomorrow.
I've been wanting to draw my designs for the Achaeans in one full illustration for some time now, finished this in like twelve hours with barely any breaks because I'M OBSESSED. I love these broken men.

Thetis: “Achilles will die when he kills Hector”
Patroclus: “Hmmm”
Patroclus: “How hard would it be to kill Hector?”
Thetis: “I don’t know, what are you think-“
Patroclus: *on his way to kill Hector so the prophecy can’t turn true*
Thetis: *second guessing why she ever disliked Patroclus*
