Two different images in red figure imitation art for the same story beat; the return of Paris!
These are each heavily inspired by/based on a vase painting that I wanted to show, but I'm pretty sure I couldn't just go reposting them so; The upper art, that I made to reflect somewhat how Paris' return goes in my own fic 'verse (hence Paris' age), is based on this vase 203903 in the Beazley Archive. I've cut out two women reacting to the scene to the left of Priam (sisters?), and an old man with a phiale to the right of Artemis. To note, though, in Beazley the figure I made Artemis in my image is just identified as "woman with bow", Given several factors (she's present in the "protective deity" role in a vase of Menelaos and Paris' duel, Paris is a youth in this art and technically under her protection, she is Trojan aligned in the war) I think it makes sense that it might just straight up be Artemis, and that's why I chose to make her so.
The lower art I made to match the standard funeral games account, hence the altar and cult statue, and it's based on this vase 204407 in the Beazley Archive. I again cut out one of the two female figures to the left of Priam again, and turned the other one into Deiphobos. ;) I also am very much assuming that the figure to the right of Paris could be Hektor; in the vase art the whole upper part of this figure is lost, so we don't know if they were even male or female.
Please go check the vase arts out on the site! They're really neat and you totally should go see them. https://www. carc.ox.ac.uk/xdb/ASP/dataSearch.asp Just put the numbers I included in the "vase number" field and it'll give you the right ones.

I have endured what no one on earth has ever done before
I put to my lips the hands of the man who killed my son.

i may have violently desecrated his corpse and kept his body in my tent for 9 days, but i believe Hector’s family deserves to give him a PROPER burial! Who's with me!! who the FUCK is with me

something about the speech hamlet asks the player to act out. what is it about priam and hecuba and pyrrhus, does he cast priam as his father and his mother as hecuba? he wants to see her as unwilling? claudius in pyrrhus' place brutally killing an undefended man. but what of the children? almost all of hecuba and priam's children are dead, does he see himself as one of the dead or is it the fact that cassandra is alive and her perceived madness is what defines her?? we know he believes himself to not be one for action then we must cast him as cassandra, her tireless words begging the world to see the truth and yet being called mad. here hamlet is deliberately stepping into madness, i suppose cassandra did too. i know this isn't really coherent but i am writing at 2:30 am sooo

*A quite day at Troy* Paris out of nowhere: HEY GUYS WANT SEE A BUTTERFLY? Priam: butterfly? Paris: *throw a butter towards them* YEET! The butter: *landed smoothly into Hector's tea* Paris: oh poop... Priam: oh no... Cassandra: Hector: *sigh* Also Hector: *took the butter out, and continued drinking his tea again*
