I love how I made Telemachus the perfect mix of the two

Idk how many people will actually see this but i decided to post it anyway

So recently Mark did a members livestream, where he just chatted a bit with us, and he said something that kinda struck me unexpectedly. Someone said they felt bad about themselves when Mark talked about how he kept himself motivated, working out and keeping himself busy with projects and such. So he started talking about how he used to not spend his days the best way when he was younger, and that its okay to not do so. I couldnt include everything thing he said word for word in the comic, so to just sum it up he talked about how its okay to not always work and be productive, its totally fine. He encouraged us to think about trying to spend our time the best way we could, but he also made sure to make it clear he wasnt shaming anyone for not spending their days "wisely" when he talked about staying in shape and working etc.

For me, who's been struggling quite alot the last years with what I want to do etc, the last few months have been pretty shitty, and these last days have been horrible, and I feel like im wasting my life away but im not sure how to do anything about it. So suddenly hearing Mark say that its okay to "waste" days and you dont always have to create and do your best with every day really hit me in the stomach. I kinda started sobbing, hearing those words really felt like some weight was taken off my shoulders. Idk. I wanted to do a lil comic about it. Hopefully it can remind you guys too that its okay to feel like youre wasting your time. Eventually you'll find what you want to do and you'll thrive doing it too. You have time, don't stress. Its gonna be okay !!

Random thoughts that keep CC up at night no. 230394: Warrior!Penelope edition

So I haven't seen a lot for Odysseus in this AU (which, fair, it isn't about him) but I had a few thoughts

- of course after a while, suitors for Odysseus start showing up, but ofc it's women instead of men

- because of this, the castle isn't as trashed as it is in the original Odyssey, but a lot of the Ithica family's money and food is being used up by the suitors

- instead of intimidation like the male suitors use on Penelope, the suitors for Odysseus try to seduce him

- a lot of the women are seen with provocative clothing and lots of jewelry to make them look expensive

- all of them fawning to get Ody's attention meanwhile all he's thinking is "I miss my wife D,: "

- idk names for Antonius' counterpart, but she would be just as aggressive

- maybe as Telemachus starts getting older, a few start going after him as well

- instead of Odysseus making a funeral shroud for Penelope's father, he gets his childhood nurse, Eurycleia to make it (who does indeed unthread it every night like Penelope)

- for the challenge that Odysseus sets up, it's a challenge of skill like the one Penelope does, but a different kind

- the challenge? Outsmart him.

- which may seem simple at a glance compared to the challenge Penelope sets up, but this is Odysseus we're talking about, chosen by Athena for his smarts

- even if in this AU he isn't chosen by a god (which, idk if that's true) he's still sly as hell, and the only person to ever outwit him is his own wife

- the suitors get frustrated that no matter what they say, what angle they got at, they just can't outwit him

- the suitors plans near the end are a lot different, planning to have Telemachus' ship wrecked somewhere with the help of a few well placed bribes, and getting Odysseus drunk and one of them seducing him (I don't know about Greek times, but I do know in older times if a man were to get a woman pregnant, he had to marry her, so that's what I'm going off of)

- but ofc Penelope is here before they can even begin to bribe the crew on Telemachus' ship, and she kills them all :]

- Would you Fall in Love with Me is the same but Odysseus is more pathetic and saying how he's always been hers, and that's never changed no matter what she's done

Penelope warrior au arts bc I’ve grown to really like it :]

for now only some pen and ares but i am planning to draw more characters for this swap au

i am kinda late to the fandom but it doesnt stop me from participating

also a few more doodles under the cut

A little reminder that Telemachus JUST got back from his diplomatic mission, found his home destroyed with bodies in the halls, got ATTACKED.

MET HIS FATHER THAT'S BEEN GONE FOR 20 YEARS?? HIS FATHER STARTS SPOUTING OUT THAT THE SUITORS WANTED TO KILL HIM AND VIOLATE HIS MOTHER??

HIS FATHER DECAPITATES A MAN. HIS FATHER DECAPITATES MULTIPLE MEN. HIS FATHER IS BACK :(((

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

[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.
