May Castellan, at some point, probably: Waiting... Luke when you come home, I'll be waiting... Even if you are the last thing I see, I'll be waiting...

I'm still not over Odysseus' little "Polites..." when Polites showed up, eSPECIALLY BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT HE TENDS TO HIT THE HIGHER NOTES WHEN HE'S EMOTIONAL. HIM SEEING HIS BEST FRIEND AGAIN MADE HIM WANT TO CRY (me too bro)

ALSO the fact that Jorge's IRL mom voiced Anticlea gave that part so much more depth and emotion to it, I love how much of a genius Jorge is

I KNOW RIGHT?!?!? (Jorge is totally a genius)

“Waiting… Odysseus, when you come home I'll be waiting… Even if you're the last thing I see, I'll be waiting…” ~ Anticlea in The Underworld

“And though I never thought that it would end like this just know, I'll be here… Waiting, waiting…” ~ Penelope The Challenge

“I know that you've been waiting… Waiting, for love…” ~ Odysseus in Would you fall in love with me again

Bro really said "I'll gladly drop a few babies from a wall to keep my men alive"

which is hilarious like Odysseus do you think a god coming down to tell you to kill an infant is a common occurrence

#I know thats the whole point of the song like to highlight him becoming a “monster” but still #fucking hilarious in my opinion #also tragic of course #epic the underworld saga #epic the musical #jorge rivera herrans #epic the circe saga #epic the cyclops saga #epic the ocean saga #epic the troy saga #Odysseus

cute lil "no longer you" analysis

Ok guys so like we know how the oracle works? Yeah yeah yeah, they say smth and no matter what you do, it will come true because of what you do. However, there are different pathways obvs. So tiresias is like, "Yeah theres a lot of your journeys, odysseys if you will, and there are good an bad endings. I know there is a good ending here for you, but I dont know it here, it isnt yours." HOWEVER it could change. It isnt set in stone yet. He sings the prophecy. He sings what is most likely going to happen from this moment onwards, how in the musical Eurylochus stands up and is killed 'a brothers final stand' and the 'sacrifice of man' being scylla and how odysseus didnt do anything to prevent the death of the men. I think the 'last breath' is in reference to "Get in the Water" but it could also be when he washes up on Claypsos shore, although I doubt it cause thats a stretch. Cause like... yeah no. Odysseus is like "Hold on. No thats not fair. We have been well, we have been using other means instead of violence so we can be fair, this ISNT fair! Then Tiresias goes on to recite more of this version of the prophecy, how Penelope will be reunited with a man who isnt anything like Odysseus is. NOW this is where it matters imo. This prophecy differs so heavily from the book, but in the book there is a choice. He tells the men to not eat any cattle they come across or else they will suffer from it and Odysseus will arrive home much later than what he would like. The option of choice is still there, eat the cattle or do not. Odysseus being doomed by the narrative has this choice screwed by his crew, but it was still presented to him none the less. Epic doesnt go this route on a surface listen. There is no clear choice but the indication is still there. After Tiresia has finished the current prophecy, it comes down to Odysseus to place how the story will go. He could either "greet the world with open arms" and try beg Tiresia to tell him the other worlds and other prophecy's, or he could go down the path the Gods favour of anger and suffering. Upon hearing his wife is with a man "with a trail of bodies", he screams "who" with such desperation and anger which the audience has never heard before. Without even saying so, it has implemented and foreshadowed the vengeance and anger he holds to this man who has taken his wife. This is dramatic irony to the audience who knows what will happen, how he turns into this man. He doesnt hate him, he becomes him, so that he can seek vengeance on who Tiresia described. It also can be interpreted from the lines already presented by Tiresia that the man is Odyssesy, as his crew, the 558 men who died, trail behind him as 'the past is always close behind'. A trail of bodies which he met only a song prior to "no longer you". The "Who" line which Odysseus screams cements his fate, the anger and choice of bitterness athena steered him to and Poseidon reimplemented being chosen over the advice his dead friend gave him. This is when Tiresias repeats the first verse, the repetition illustrating how that world now is this world. It cements that there is no change to be done, Odysseus path will end in a trail of bodies which is greater than the one he already bears, and the sacrifices he must make in order to reunite with his wife while becoming something akin to the Devine whilst staying mortal, a monster.
