If I may ask, how is Ody doing in the Warrior! Penelope AU? Is he doing alright? How's he fending off the suitors swarming the palace for a shot at earning the heart of the King?(Even if we all know there's only one person with that claim) And how about Telemachus, is he doing okay?
In all seriousness, I am genuinely curious about your take on Odysseus and Telemachus in this AU, plus a little about the suitors.
(Also, your art is amazing!!)
pff Ody is never doing alright, what are you talking about
he's spending 20 years pretending to string his old bow to buy time over the suitresses (is that a word?) (woman suitors.). Then the challenge is whoever gets to finish his wife's old shroud gets to be the new queen, and this beggar old woman somehow finishes it perfectly
and telemachus is honestly the exact same thing
I love Suffering animatics/art where Odysseus has a chain or rope around his ankle, connecting him to the mast. not only is it a great reference to the source material, but it implies that someone on the ship was worried that the mere sight of Penelope might convince Odysseus to jump in the water, even though he knows its a siren who will kill him
and that they were so persuasive in this argument that Odysseus actually agreed to it
Au with Marinette as Percy Jackson twin sister and she has sea green eyes like him how would she react to kawamis and how she deal with being the air with akumas and also deal with lila
Okay, so her name in this is Maris (which means of the sea) because Sally is amazing at naming children and she is just overall amazing tbh
She is much more subdued than her twin brother, which turns out to be a good thing, since it allows her to apply to a scholarship in Paris for a design school, which she is accepted for. Her mother insist she go by boat instead of plane and while Mari is surprised, she agrees because she preferred it anyway.
Percy is sad to see his sister go but understands that it will be better for her in Paris instead of in New York with Smelly Gabe.
When the whole Demigod, monster thing happens and Percy is all over the news with Sally reported as missing, Mari has a breakdown in class because her only family is missing, probably dead and she doesn’t know what to do,
at that point, she already has the Kwami and has become the guardian early because of Master Fu’s untimely passing. The Kwami try to comfort this girl and when the news of Percy and Sally being okay reaches Mari she weeps of joy and goes home immediately, damn the consequences! She needs to be with her family right now.
By the time she gets back, Sally is waiting for her and takes her to camp halfblood where she is immediately claimed because she is Percy’s twin, she could only be the daughter of Poseidon as well. She does not care one bit, grabbing hold of her brother and berating him for worrying her all the while babbling about how much she missed and loved him.
Almost everyone else is staring because “Uh, who is she?” “My twin sister”
When the Kwami come out, everyone is freaked out. the Kwami are pissed at the Greeks and have half a mind to charge up to Olympus and demand justice for these children and both surprisingly and unsurprisingly, it is Tikki leading them. Mari has to talk them down, which the other campers find both entertaining and horrifying because those are tiny, powerful GODS!!!!!!
Maris doesn’t understand what the big deal is because they are all sort of the weird extended family she never had in her eyes.
No Longer You waltzing animatic, this wasn't supposed to be a serious thing but oh well
When I was little my mom’s meatloaf was my favorite food. But ONLY her meatloaf. I didn’t like anyone else’s, and she told me that she would teach me how to make it when I was older. And when I was like 19? She finally taught me, but she told me never to tell anyone else and I was like weird but okay
Anyway, she was super fucking homophobic and abusive to me when I told her I was gay, so here’s the recipe
4-6 lbs of Hamburger/turkey burger
1 pk onion soup mix OR ranch mix
1 TBs ketchup
1 Tbs spicy brown mustard,
1 Tbs bbq sauce
1 Tbs steak sauce
1 egg
mix, shape into a loaf in a big pan, and bake at 350 for 2 hrs (maybe 2 and a half if you’re feeling dangerous)
You can get almost all of these ingredients at the dollar store, and have leftovers if it’s just you. The leftovers make great tacos if (taco seasoning is also like a dollar). Enjoy your revenge loaf
So far, I think we Epic fans have mutually agreed on 3 things:
1) Penelope is taller than Odysseus
2) Polites was holding the infant when he appeared in the Underworld saga
3) Odysseus tucked his hair behind his ear when he sang “Penelope why, you know I’m too shy”
