I am once again having a thought™ and I just went on a full-on rant to a friend, thought I'd share my thoughts with y'all to see if anyone agrees.

Yes, it's about Hadesgame Patrochilles, buckle up.

Currently reading the Iliad, I noticed that not only are Achilles and Patroclus extremely well-written in Hades (that we're all aware of, I think), but also that there are many many layers to their relationship and the one they have with Zagreus.

First thing that hit me while reading the og Patrochilles and how they're written is how drastically different they are in Hades compared to their original alive selves. They're basically each the complete opposite of what they were when they were alive: Achilles, once prideful, arrogant and impulsive, once his rage was appeased, now became wise, patient, calm, an actually good mentor to Zagreus, in whom he must see a lot of his younger self. Patroclus, on the other hand, once famously gentle and kind, became bitter and dismissive. That can easily be explained by the fact that decades and decades alone after death can drastically change someone. Achilles, so guilty about what his pride did to Patroclus, matured and became wiser; and Patroclus, because of years alone abandoned, lost his faith in the glory of war (and in Achilles).

They basically became the opposite of what they were when they were alive, because of years of loneliness and longing and reflecting on this war they were a part of.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL GUYS. When you dig a bit (mostly by chatting with Achilles and listening to Patroclus ramble to himself), you learn that what made them mostly change, aside from the circumstances of their deaths, is their longing for each other, and that despite all that change, they both retain the ONE TRAIT that caused their deaths.

Achilles, even in death, remains unbelievably stubborn, unshakable in his decisions (or in this case, his decision to stay away from Patroclus so that he can rest in Elysium) until Patroclus (through Zagreus) manages to shake him out of it.

And Patroclus, ever so bitter and depressed Patroclus, remains deeply kind and generous. He broods there in his glade, but when Zagreus shows up, polite, just passing by, in need of help, Patroclus offers him what little he has to keep going.

It drives me insane to see that after dying, Patroclus is the one who became impulsive and ready to 'risk it all', because he simply has nothing left to lose. Meanwhile, Achilles, so scarred by Patroclus' death (caused by him and his hubris and his pride), is terrified of risking anything, because the one thing he has left to lose is Patroclus' place in Elysium, and he simply can't bring himself to understand that Patroclus wants to be by his side anywhere rather than alone up there.

And they could have never reconciled without Zagreus' intervention. Because somehow, Zagreus is a mirror of both of them, in his own way.

And because on top of being impusilve and stubborn (like Achilles) as well as kind and caring (like Patroclus), Zagreus is the one guy down here, the only one who fights against his fate with all his goddamn might.

Because he wants to see his mother. He wants to find his place in this world. He wants to be acknowledged and respected. So he fights, against the Fates themselves (by just being alive, he does, I'll remind), against Hades, to get what he wants. Achilles and Patroclus both succumbed to their own destinies in the worst way. Of course it would resonate with them.

Maybe I'm thinking too hard about this. But there are so many parallels to draw here! Think about Achilles, who practically raised Zagreus, instructed him in myths, history, combat and arms. Seeing this kid, a prince, gifted for combat, craving for recognition and respect? That would ring a bell. And Zagreus is already a dual kind of person, he's the red eye and the green eye, he's the Olympian and the goddess with a mortal father. He's rage and fierceness (Achilles) and he's kindness and generosity (Patroclus).

And Zagreus hates the status quo. In his own life, and in the one of others. He does this for multiple people in Hades (Sisyphus, Orpheus and Eurydice, Hypnos and Thanatos, Nyx and Chaos...), he just can't stand people suffering when he knows there is something that could be done. He rattles the house and wreaks havoc in his father's well-ordered world, because he knows damn well he's the only one with enough balls to do it.

The thing is that if Zagreus had never intervened, Achilles and Patroclus would never have seen each other. Achilles took the first step toward redemption by giving up his place in Elysium (his glory, his pride, what he fought so hard for) so that Patroclus could stay there instead, as a way of apologizing for what he did to him and atone for his mistakes; but after that, he was left frozen in his own guilt, refusing to try and think of a way to see Patroclus again. And Pat, well... He's given up. Like how he gave up on reasoning with Achilles back in Troy. So he just waits there, even he doesn't know what for. It takes this bisexual disaster of a god to barge in and shake things up, until Patroclus finally reached out to Achilles, gives him that message (risk it all), the last push Achilles needed to finally move.

So yeah I just think they're neat-

This concludes my thought™.

#hades #hades game #patrochilles #the iliad #tsoa #achilles #patroclus #zagreus #supergiant hades #so yeah what you have to conclude from this is that Zag should gain a new pair of dads- #I am very normal about them #sol brainrot hours

Zagreus: ok. Last run.

Me, bad at video games, attempting the run with a new weapon, turned off god mode in spite of the aforementioned poor video game skill, has over 40 runs and has only made it to Elysium once: sure thing buddy

Dad tried to get rid of one of his sewing machines cause there are too many around already n they take too much space, and the people he sold the machine to, brough him another sewing machine as bonus for the exchange...And its mechanism and size makes it even harder to store than the previous one. Its great.

#eternal curse there can be only more sewing machines #text post #hes currently in the basement staring at the new sewing machine #cause its some weird zig zag we never had before #but we wont prolly ever use either

about time i drew everybody all together! short character bios under the cut -

from my Eberron campaign, Montgomery is a dragonborn artificer/rogue ex-sheriff turned bounty hunter following banishment from her clan. She is currently the first mate of the airship The Gold Rush. Her signature weapons are her rifle, The Last Roundup, and her steel defender CHECKM8, who protects the entire party. Her girlfriend Aubrey is a changeling rogue assassin spy turned traitor who started the campaign as a villain. She is now a party ally and The Gold Rush's quartermaster. Her signature weapon is her pistol, Queen's Gambit, and she specializes in poison damage.

from my Witchlight campaign, Bailey is a tabaxi rogue urchin who grew up on the streets alone. He was transformed into a cat after he stumbled into the Feywild, and he believes he is on a quest to commit as many good deeds as it takes to change himself back. He dreams of some day leaving the streets to become a hero. His signature weapon is his unicorn horn rapier, Lady Amalthea. Toil & Trouble are two trouble making Brigganocks that took part in a side quest rescue mission. After a fight with a Witch, they decided to tag along with Bailey. On their backs are will-o-wisps that represent their souls. They know some versatile spells like Meld with Stone, Faerie Fire, and Spare the Dying

#dnd #dungeons and dragons #dragonborn #changeling #tabaxi #eberron #witchlight #i had a lot of fun with this one. i tried a couple new things and i think it came out pretty good #full body human was a bit too ambitious right now but i dont think i did too badly #toil and trouble came from a session where my DM let me pilot like 12 of these little briggernock guys #there were other names like Zig & Zag and Dig & Dug lol but i ended up growing fond of these two and my DM let me bring them along #they're the Pain and Panic to Bailey's Hercules so i updated their original mole/shrew like designs to something like a dust bunny #Toil is the rabbit and Trouble is the chipmunk lol #aubrey's outfit is taken from Elementary #teehee they're girlfriends #art only

Pfft in this new set up for New Management AU I have, it'd be pretty funny if instead of putting Freddy or Bonnie in charge or anything, Roxy puts guys from Sewerhell in charge instead. Zags (an old Freddy) is now in charge of Fazerblast and while Freddy completely expected her to pull something like this, he's still incredibly unimpressed. Of course she picked Zags. Zags is like if Roxy was a fucking bear. Why is he not surprised in the slightest.

Bonnie is less bothered. He knows he's a bimbo. He's very proud of not knowing what the braincell looks like. He understands completely. Though he does pull a shovel talk style thing on whoever she picks to size them up for the job. Just for funsies.

#whoops new management au #plex history: zags #I love zags he's so funny #TO BE CLEAR ROXY DOESN'T OFTEN HAVE THE BRAINCELL EITHER #she's mostly just mad at him and freddy for lying by ommission to her this whole ass time

It was HOT today, so rather than stay home and swelter, I headed to the Blue Mountains for a ride on the Zig Zag Railway.

I took the windy (both pronunciations of this spelling are applicable today!!) Bells Line of Road on my (110km) drive out to the station. Lots of steep hills, with "zig zag" corners of its own to negotiate, but fortunately not much traffic.

So I got to do a nice drive, and a train ride!

It's a round trip from Clarence

Through the first tunnel and down to Top Points

where the engine de-couples and switches to the other end or the train for the next section

over the viaducts and through another tunnel to Bottom Points

where the old trains would then continue (switching the direction of the pulling engine again) to Lithgow.

For our trip the engine takes on water before decoupling again to switch to the other end of the train to pull us back up to Top Points,

(the faces are blurry on purpose!)

changing ends one more time and returning us to Clarence.

And that was how I spent my Australia Day.

Hey y'all! Does anyone know anything about replacing light bulbs on sewing machines? I have a Viking Selectronic 6570 and the light bulb just burned out It was my grandma's machine, and I did not even know it had a light for like a solid year of using it. Then it had to get a fairly major repair, and the shop replaced the light bulb, which was a surprise when I turned on the machine for the first time! That shop is unfortunately on the other side of the country from me, and the light is extremely useful when I'm doing super precise sewing

#the person behind the yarn #I love this sewing machine #it has sentimental value #and also it's a really damn good sewing machine #it's like 40-50 years old and SOLID #it will sew through ANYTHING #I did not know that sewing machines sometimes have trouble with denim or faux fur because this machine Does Not Care #like. doesn't even need a denim needle for denim not even for sewing several layers (I still do change the needle out when I remember) #I have a second sewing machine now entirely because grandma's sewing machine has one little problem #it refuses to believe it can sew a zigzag stitch #very occasionally it will remember! and sew a zig zag for like a few inches #but then it will go back to the...I think it's called a blind hem stitch? #which just does not work as well for things like beanie hems #so new sewing machine for beanie hems and simple quilts (because I do not have a true 1/4 inch foot for the new machine) #and old sewing machine for everything else
