I think one of the most interesting thing about the use of “Ruthlessness” in The Underworld Saga is that in that song Poseidon is …. wrong. the line “you totally could’ve avoided all this if you’d just kill my son” is technically correct, but wasn’t Odysseus’ only option.
What actually lead to his death was his hubris - Gods in Greek Mythology aren’t omnipotent, so if Odysseus didn’t give him name, address and credit card info to the cyclops, then Poseidon wouldnt have been able to track him down and the rest wouldn’t have happened.
idk i think his character is so interesting and i think the musical does such a good just capturing it in the lyricism because like ,,,,, yeah idk this musical has been rotting my brain

“After van Leeuwenhoek’s discovery of sperm, it took another century before anyone realised that they were needed to fertilise eggs. That revelation came in the 1760s, when the Italian priest and natural scientist Lazzaro Spallanzani, experimenting on male frogs wearing tight-fitting taffeta pants, demonstrated that eggs would not develop into tadpoles unless sperm was shed into the surrounding water. Bizarrely, until Spallanzani announced his findings, it was widely thought – even by van Leeuwenhoek for some years – that sperm were tiny parasites living in human semen.”
-Robert D. Martin

the writers are just torturing me with interviews past two days, and one of the most insane making is saying Jimmy was trying to not just die to save Kim, but die to atone for Howard. how am I supposed to deal in these conditions (second place goes to Saul finishing his "it wasn't me" as soon as the hood comes off cos he's right back to this memory, and third is that Mike liked *Jimmy*, not Saul, and he's disappointed in him for devolving into a persona)
all of this! regarding your first point, i admittedly had not considered jimmy might be taking the fall as a roundabout way of atoning for the fact that he put howard in the line of fire. it’s the single bravest, most selfless, romantic thing he’s ever done, regardless of motivation. just this morning, i read a quote from one of the writers about this being almost an extension of their wedding vows; i’d die for you. would you kill for me? and that’s what got me, almost more than anything.
the reoccurrence of the “it was ignacio!” line is utterly amazing, and i’d wager a guess that most fans would agree with me. the fact that these writers were able to retroactively imbue what began as a throwaway line of dialogue with such meaning is just astounding. nacho was at the very heart of the cartel subplot to the end, we’d come to see many members of the underworld through his eyes. and lalo, i mean, jesus. i’m a gus fring stan through and through, but i cannot help but think of him as the best villain either show has ever had. cunning and charming and wildly intelligent and delightfully sociopathic. can’t imagine how different this series would be had the writers not committed to giving life to these characters.
and finally, mike and jimmy. i drafted something on this last night, but my ramblings ultimately ended up in the tags of a reblog, so i’ll share them again here: i often think about brba-era mike threatening to break jimmy’s legs and leave him in a hole in the desert, etc. i can only imagine how his opinion of jimmy will be forever altered now that he and kim’s actions have resulted in the death of an innocent. howard wasn’t in the game. and maybe there was a time when mike thought jimmy was sympathetic to his sense of morality. i can recall one conversation during 5.09 about fred from travelwire. now, however, i imagine mike sees jimmy (and kim) as someone who is willfully ignorant to the harm his selfishness can cause others. and serious harm. he could have assumed that jimmy had learned his lesson, that he’d think twice before sticking his nose where it didn’t belong after what they went through in the desert, after his first confrontation with lalo. and yet, lessons remain unlearned and they are forced once more to face the consequences.
