#or biblical greek

[evan-bo-bevin]

So I had to go to Greece last year because of a wedding, it was unexpected and I wasn’t sure about it at first, but I honestly fell in love? Not with the islands, they’re cool I get it, but it’s too… fancy. I loved Athens though, like the city proper. It reminded us of the cluttered towns you see in china, japan, SEA, the neighborhoods you see that have buildings a handful of stories tall, start white and beige, the electric wires crossing everywhere, but placed in a hilly region that reminded me a little of the Central Valley, in Phoenix? Kinda like taking a small piece of NYC, switching up the architecture style, and placing it in an arid scrubby region, I love it a lot. It was so much more arid than I knew!! So many desert plants, they have tortoises just roaming the city streets and I’m in love with every one of them.

ANYWAY, I picked up a little Greek while I was there and I decided to keep going with it, I didn’t expect to fall in love with the language. It sounds like a perfect combination of English and Spanish/Italian, which makes sense, it’s old as heck and so much was adopted from the ancient version that still persists today. And yet it sounds NOTHING like any language I’ve ever heard. Conjugation rules are similar to Spanish though, so there’s a lot of grammar tricks from there that I’ve been able to apply to learning Greek, I don’t want to say it’s easy exactly, but also… it is? In a way? They also use diminutives for EVERYTHING, it’s very cute.

If anyone ELSE is interested, r/Greek has fantastic resources. My method has been Duolingo for repetitive practice, but Language Transfer (link below) for actual grammar lessons. Duolingo doesn’t do shit for grammar, so PLEASE don’t rely on just that for ANY language. It’s so important that you supplement your learning with additional sources, so read children’s books when you can, especially if you know the story already in English. Disney recently added SO MANY dubbed languages to their movies — Sleeping Beauty & Hercules both have Greek, and it’s so much fun to hear the other actors!

#evan talks #Greek #evan learns greek #PLEASE come learn Greek with me #just do it #there’s so many free resources #you can learn it for whatever reason you want #but note this is NOT THE SAME as Ancient Greek #or biblical greek #similar #but those are different and there’s different resources and subreddits for it #this is MODERN greek

We (the viewers) know Bad’s physical and mental state is in decline, highlighted especially by the head wound that continues expanding to a worrying degree.

And now he’s fixated on building a puzzle that will deliberately drive someone into an absolute rage, to the point they’d murder him. He’s really really fixated on that point. Like, he has doubled down on the emphasis.

He’s been vaguely referencing how he needs to keep going as long as he can (paraphrased) for a while. Is this a case where he cannot let himself fade away, to die at his own hand, but needs someone else to take him out - and if so, why? What additional purpose does death serve in this scenario? How does this tie in to memories, libraries and remembering?

I have to go sleep now. But thinking about this could well keep me up all night.

my favorite hobby is doing oversimplified, one-woman reenactments of scenes from the iliad -with an unnecessary (very necessary) amount of curse words- for my friends, usually along the lines of:

hector, after spearing patroclus: lmaooo, got you

patroclus: be fr, your bitch-ass would still be chasing me if it weren’t for apollo

hector: okay damn, you’re still dying tho soooo

patroclus: count your days mf, achilles is gonna get your ass after this and we both know it

hector: 😐

patroclus: 😵

Angel of Death but she’s jacked. That’s it.

….no, it’s not actually. Last summer I got this idea that the interdimensional aspect of Transitus would lend itself well to the artstyle changing with each 'realm' Daniel travels through. Further, those styles coincide with historical art movements that (supposedly) fit the narrative, evoking a sense of whiplash shared by the character and the audience. To name a few:

Most obvious, the mortal world is styled after popular visual art from the mid to late 19th century. The living characters appear as monochrome antique photos, while backgrounds and props are done in a painterly, Impressionism-ish look. The style is centered around the effect of light, and said light only affects the characters in two ways: a ghost is hovering around them, or fire.

Observe some hella rushed tests of this I did last year:

Still needs some work but anyways. Skip to Daniel being chucked into Transitus. The Angel of Death is real figure in Abrahamic religions. I thought it would be fitting if she (and Daniel once he’s with her) were drawn following some conventions of the High Renaissance for it. Hence the muscles lmao. Will definitely mess with her wing design more.

#ayreon #transitus #theres more but I have zero visuals for them #plus I’d have to explain a bunch of headcanons #some classical Greek pottery and Byzantine aka east orthodox stuff #plus the Angel has a fun terrifying biblically accurate form that’s pretty rooted in the Lovecraftian monster style #but anyways someone tell me how the HELL I drew that Simone in just a few hours that’s one of the best figures I’ve ever done #literally no reference wtf #simone simons #Epica #tommy karevik #cammie gilbert #arjen lucassen #digital art #art #fanart #Renaissance #Impressionism #art history

I need a book about someone avenging Adam and Eve.

I just had the thought (and I'm no expert, I'm not even Christian I just grew up going to church whenever I was with my nana) that Adam and Eve had no knowledge of good and evil before they ate the fruit that gave them that knowledge. they had no experience of death, no knowledge of it when they were threatened with it when god commanded them not to eat the fruit. despite this, I can only imagine that they went to hell when they died, when Jesus died to absolve that original sin in humans it wasn't retroactive (again not an expert).

they were the original sinners and yet the only humans to ever be completely innocent, without access to the knowledge of good and evil.

so, with all this established, it would be incredible for someone to realize this and go on a quest to save them from eternal damnation. a biblical story in the style and theming of a Greek myth, it was my first thought while working through this idea because the Greeks were experts in underworld espionage.

anyway I hope someone enjoys this idea as much as I do, it's nearly 2am and I've run out of steam for fleshing this out any further.

I've done this once or twice now, so I'm willing to give it another shot—

I'm looking to start up a small roleplay group. Ideally, between five and nine individuals. Some need to know things mechanic wise:

The roleplay group will be run like a tabletop roleplay game [ttrpg].

It will be played very similar to Dungeon and Dragons [DnD] or Pathfinder. For those familiar with the system. When I say its similar, it uses the same dice sets, stats, and usage of rolls. But it has its entire own handbook for skills, feats, classes, equipment and the likes. But you don't need any experience if you don't know the other ttrpg systems, as it has its own handbook for you to access.

It will be in text format however, like a roleplay. People will tag each other after their replies. And you'll have access to an entire server with different channel and sections for different places to explore in character.

Every individual/player will have one character (unless they would like to have a second or third, or wish to play what could be classified as an npc).

Now, if it's caught your attention this far. I'll let you know the premise of the game/roleplay:

The player/individual's characters receive a scholarship from an intentional school. It is a full ride for housing, tuition, supplies, and anything else they might need. But there is trickery afoot they have to unravel and navigate.

Things you won't necessarily know in character however: every player/character is a demigod. They have divine blood. And the reason they are brought to the school is for their divine parent to try to reconnect with them.

Other themes that there will be

If you like Percy Jackson, and wanted a ttrpg system for it. Or if you just like mythology in general.

If you like the dark academia aesthetic.

If you like the found family trope.

If you like time traveling, or second experiences.

Now, if you've made it this far, I only have a very few requests I would ask of you:

I know a lot might be interested, but again I will restate: I'm looking for between 6-9 people.

Please be 18+, there will be mature topics discussed.

Be LGBTQ+ friendly

And if you're interested, send me a message and we'll chat. I'll get you the link to the group server on discord, and we'll start making your characters.

Thank you for reading this far. I hope this reaches the right crowd!
