quick little solangelo sketch
Octavian: Sorry, where I should get the bus to go the cemetery?
Y/N!Child of Thanatos: In your face!
Octavian: "sarcastically" Lovely.
IMO Jughead is the most compelling character in this show and the more I watch the more tragic his character and arc are.
Where I’m at in season five it just really seems like he’s turning into his dad (alien conspiracy theories notwithstanding) and it’s horribly tragic mostly bc it seems very realistic for kids who grow like he did. Setting all the weird Riverdale shit aside, being abandoned by your mom and forced into homelessness by you drunkard of a father and witnessing a man get beaten to death whilst living under a bridge and being bullied at school and overwhelming not really wanted by anyone in your life are the kinds of things that leave a lasting mark. And on top of that people are a product of the environment they grow up in. Some people get out of it and take new paths and others get sucked back in no matter how hard they try to escape. And tbh Jughead probably would’ve had more luck escaping if he’d had a proper support system.
I like Bughead a lot but they were pretty toxic for each other after a while. They both brought so much baggage into the relationship on top of which Jughead doesn’t know how to set better boundaries bc he’s never really seen a healthy relationship and Betty had way too much going on to acknowledge the fact that she and Jughead were making each other worse not better at a certain point.
The graduation episode I believe it is when Betty admits that she kissed Archie during hedwig is one of the saddest moments bc when she says “I need to tell you something” he knows exactly what she did and he’s not even surprised. But he doesn’t let go. He just holds on tighter. Which again I understand bc she’s the only person who’s ever really cared about him, but this is at least the second time she’s kissed Archie while still dating Jughead and at a certain point you have to say this isn’t working anymore.
Side note but I also felt so so bad for Veronica when Archie tells her about the kiss. I don’t have particularly strong feelings for varchie one way or the other but she deserved so much better than that.
I feel like this is just an incoherent mess but im gonna post it anyways and see if any of y’all can make sense of it
Hazel tried to avoid eye contact, but she caught Octavian at the head of the First Cohort smirking at her, looking smug in his plumed centurion helmet with a dozen medals pinned to his chest.
Thinking about Sweet Pea being so devastatingly in love with Fangs and hurting for him every time Kevin asks for a break, because Fangs will be wondering why and when their relationship went wrong and if it’s his fault and Sweet Pea just can’t ever fully comfort him and tell him straight up that he deserves better because he knows that despite all that Fangs loves Kevin and he can’t be selfish and say that he loves him, too, and he’d never treat him like that. I’m not okay bye
(some of these playlists have songs that have darker themes which can include: sex, violence, mentions of weapons, and in a few cases satire on gender )

what's odysseus's thought on y/n
(by the way I love the interactions that we are given between the two of them oh my fucking god he is a slime)
like he's practically seen him grown up
like what does he think of him
Odysseus actually likes Y/N.
To a point.
(on mobile.)
Unlike many others, y/n is often blunt and straight to the point which is rare in Odysseus' circles. And it is nice to know that someone could tell Odysseus the simple facts.
Also while y/n can be prideful, he is not as arrogant as many warrior are. ( Think someone like theseus vs how y/n acts)
However that also work against him. Bc many ways Odysseus can't use Y/N in the political mind games that are played among the kings and therefore limits how useful y/n is to him during war.
But the way y/n acts also ends being a reason Odysseus want to take y/n with him (that and he actually felt bad for the lad bc Odysseus might be a bastard, he does believe y/n had more than proven himself)
Odysseus had no idea what he would be walking into so having the support of y/n who is loyal to a fault and can easily fight anyone would had been a huge boon for him.
Also he is a little envious that unlike his own son, y/n was old enough to join the war. Odysseus just really want to see his son and wife again and he would burn the world and everyone in it to do so.
So nothing personal when he fucked y/n over. But he really did have a good reason for why he did it.
But doesn't he always?
DIETYS AND OFFERINGS LIST (12/6/2022)
I'm tired of giving long-winded explanations for both of these so I made a meme about both it
[image ID: the shaking hands meme. The hand on the left says "christian witches" and the hand on the right says "christian queer people". Where they meet in the middle it says "the Bible is the word of God but it was written down and translated by flawed and biased humans so it's our right and responsibility to spend time with God and discern what we believe His will to be".]
