i dont think thats the case Athena
[Seconds after Odysseus' and Penelope's loving embrace, having finally been reunited after almost 20 years]
Odysseus, panicking: Penelope! You’re bleeding!
Penelope, completely calm: Don’t worry love, it’s not my blood.
I love how Epic is basically becoming the Rivera-Herrans family project at this point in the series XD. It's sweet
drew Ody unhinged cuz ya boi’s a bit off his rocker so to speak…
Don’t worry it’s ok I gave him his wifey:
*meanwhile, in the Underworld* Polites: Eurylochus, back so soon? And...there's the rest of your crew. And by the gods, what happened to you? Eurylochus, who is sick of thematically-significant reprises: >:(
Happy Ithaca Saga release day!! How much have you cried? Here's an Odypen sketch 🫶
I think the thing that makes me go feral in God Games is the fact that Athena matches the melody of every god she tries to persuade, except for Ares.
Ares, the only god Athena can never see eye to eye with, the brother she is by nature eternally pitted against, the guy she just fucking hates. She whips her own theme out to rebuke him and it is glorious
Conflicting character development
