My next animatic will probably be Ruthlessness. So I have been sketching out some ideas, I guess, for Poseidon, and I ended up making him a horse. So I like to depict the gods as animals or change sizes when they are expressing big emotions. And Poseidon has this calm anger throughout all of his songs, but his anger is simmering beneath. So my first ideas, I started out having him as a dark horse chasing Odysseus' boat. And when he becomes angry, he becomes more horrifying. But then I realized that meant that I had to draw a freaking horse throughout the whole animatic, and I didn't want that, so I gave him a human form....
His human form isn't really 100% decided yet. I don't really know if he fit of the delivery the song.
If I remember right, in the snippet of Get In The Water, Jay said that there will be a "twist" in the song. Probably Athena will appear or something. I don't know what it can be. But I do have some theories.
I have a headcanon about Poseidon in the musical. I see him more like a personification of vengeance itself. It's based on the parallelism between Odysseus, Poseidon, and even Hector.
Hector was the man who died and couldn't protect his son from the perpetrator. Poseidon is the man whose son became mutilated and is trying to take revenge on his perpetrator. Odysseus is the man who does everything he can to make sure he won't end up in the same spot like Hector/Poseidon.
So this design of Poseidon is more based on what if Poseidon was the representation of Hector's ghost trying to take revenge for the murder of his son.
It's a stretch, but I kind of like it!

it's always been weird to me when people point to fanfiction as this horrible thing that's making everyone dumber because it makes it feel like the only professionally published books they're reading are the ones they make you read in high school. there is an infinite amount of pure, mindless schlock in every medium of "art" and literature is no different
i think everyone should be mandated to read at least one shockingly stupid book a month so we don't fall into this trap of holding books up as some kind of pillar of intellectualism

lmao also speaking of freudian analysis, how about guts saving casca from rape while depicting his sword as if it's the penetrating object instead
i mentioned guts cutting off wyald's dick in that post the other day, but man i should've reread the actual scene bc this goes a step further, especially as a prelude to the eclipse. like this is not disabusing me of the impression that the eclipse rape is all about cuckolding lol, and that guts' interest in casca is largely predicated on affirming his own masculinity.
cut for topless casca and also being a potentially triggering if non-graphic sexual assault scene obviously

My main theory for Berserk is that Schierke is going to contact Casca in Falconia, and through magic shenanigans, Casca's soul/mind will be able to travel with the Guts crew, while her body remains under Falconia's "Protection".
...
Sort-of alternate theory is that Zodd and Casca will form a resistance group against Griffith while Griffith over-extends his military elsewhere, and when he returns, he will find his "His Castle" rallied against him.

I tried to put the songs a bit in order but bc a lot of these are not just related to plotbeats or character moments but are just in there bc they help with my writing mood as well, that turned out to be harder than i thought lmao
