“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. [...] When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”  🩸
Tumblr media
“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” 🌻
Two souls, reunited.
(quotes from Madelline Miller's The Song Of Achilles)

Achilles & Patroclus for Valentines 💖👨‍❤️‍💋‍👨⚔️
This piece is set during the Trojan War, in Achilles’ tent. The lovers are spending a relaxing moment alone together on their bed coming up with new melodies on their lyre. In my mind, this scene is early into the war, where everyone’s still living in canvas tents, and spirits are still high.

-:Dying in your lover’s arms prompts:-
(This is so angsty, I'm living on it. TAG ME! This has been in my drafts for months, so there you go)
By @me-writes-prompts
Wrapping the other one in a hug and then falling down to the ground.
Cradling them in their arms, until the other one breathes their last hope.
It starts to rain, and there is blood all over them, but they are kissing the last goodbye.
^^"Don't say goodbye."
"I have to go, love."
"Stay with me. Please."
"Don't. You can't leave me, not now. Not ever."
Confessing their feelings for the other one(even though, not the best time I must say. It still has me crying so)
Sobbing and gently putting their heads together.
Hands reaching out to each other at their last moment
Murmuring 'I love you's repeatedly until their voice is raw and low
"You're so brave, you have to hang on."
"Be strong for me, please."
Holding them so tightly that their bodies are basically glued together

So I’m a huge Achilles and Patroclus shipper
And I love them
And recently, I found a musical about these two
It’s called: Aristos: The Musical
Tumblr media
It is really good. I’m in tears when I’m listening to it.
It surprised me that how little people knows about this brilliant musical.
It is completed, and have 18 songs.
I highly recommend this to anyone who loves Achilles and Patroclus or just simply interested in greek myth.
Whether you’re a fan of the iliad or the song of Achilles, I’m sure you’ll love this musical.

"My pulse jumps, for no reason I can name. He has looked at me a thousand thousand times, but there is something different in this gaze, an intensity I do not know. " [The song of Achilles- Madeline Miller]

What about dark!Achilles and Patroclus?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The fact that your father betrothed you to Achilles made your stomach ache for days with worry and sadness.
You tried your hardest to love Achilles, but no matter how much you try, you never fall for him.
Indeed, the warrior is handsome, strong, and intelligent.
But he terrified you to no end, with his aggressive behaviour towards anyone who speaks to you even if that person falls in the 'family category'.
Achilles also set strict rules.
You can't go out without him.
You two have to have every meal together.
You have to ask for permission to visit your family.
And there are so many other rules to list, and if you break any of them you get locked up for days.
And you can't fight him as you live under his father's roof.
Managing to successfully escape one day, you meet Patroclus.
You fall for him due to his sweet personality, which is the opposite of Achilles.
You should have known that Patroclus is a trap.
But how could you have possibly known that Achilles and Patroclus have a relationship.
Patroclus was surprised when you told him that Achilles is your betrothed.
Still, he can't blame his lover for hiding you, as he himself finds you attractive in different ways.
Patroclus tricked you into meeting up with Achilles as he told he was taking you out for a trip but instead you find yourself back into the arms of you betrothed
But this time, there is a difference.
Patroclus gets to share you with Achilles.

One of the unmistakable comparisons between Hannibal and Will and the myth of Achilles and Patroclus. Achilles was arrogant and harsh towards others, but only towards Patroclus was he warm. Will was curt and perfunctory to all of his acquaintances except Hannibal. Will, the lovesick erastes. Hannibal, the devoted eromenos.
