I love how both Sparta and Miletus celebrated Apollo having a boyfriend.

Sparta -> Hyacinthus (had a festival called the Hyacinthia, where they celebrated their love, mourned Hya's death, and celebrated his resurrection to Olympus)

Miletus -> Branchus (built a temple dedicated to Branchus & Apollo, even naming it after the kiss Branchus gave Apollo)

so cute <3

Man we need to bring back Greek Mythology-type religions

I wanna live in a world where we worship the two buff bearded guys in love and I wanna look at a statue of the two making out and go “hell yea”

I was half asleep and thinking about all the stories like She’s The Man and Mulan (1999) where a woman dresses up like a man in order to do something ManlyTM and how they all inevitably fall in love with the masculinity of it all while still being women (or not, I guess, fiction is flexible and gender is more so)

and I went “give me a man who chooses to dress as a woman instead of resorting to violence. Give me a man who, in finding femininity and softness, can find himself. Give me a man who chooses kindness and love over war and aggression, but the only way he can do so is finding solace in the feminine. Not because femininity is inherently softer, but because society has told him as such. Give me a man who, through trial and error, finds himself learning to love the traditional women’s tasks he’s been clumsily attempting. Give me a man who could never truly fit in with other men, and the women around him protect him and love him unconditionally. Give me a man who cannot stand for himself at first, and then rises stronger together with the people who took him in”

And I realized that “give me a man who dresses as a woman in order to avoid going to war” is just. Achilles. And I want that classically animated movie now. I don’t even care if it’s sanitized like the Disney Renaissance Mulan or Hercules, in fact I’d enjoy that. I want Achilles to choose kindness and love and beauty over the war he never wanted to fight. I want a lighthearted, playful version of Achilles where there’s a happy ending. I know it’s a tragedy, but so were a lot of things that got animated at the time (not even Disney, Anastasia and Quest for Camelot come to mind as well) and I think he and Patroclus can have a happily ever after, too

I also want it to be gay, but I think that goes without saying

“Sally named Percy Peseus because he lived happily ever after” no FUCK that Sally named him Perseus because Perseus and Danaë fucking suffered. Their lives sucked. They were cast out literally and figuratively left to fend for themselves but despite all of that they fought for every bit they earned and accepted no shit from anybody and when Sally Jackson was handed her precious baby boy she was feeling particularly powerful that day. She was a penniless orphan turned single mother and despite not having a fucking clue about what her and her child’s life would become she decided she wasn’t going to quit. She was drowning in grief and worry just like Danaë, drowning in a sea pitted against her, was and both women decided to brave the fucking storm.

THATS why his name is Perseus. Because both their mothers fought a different kind of battle and won
