That part of the hate that Perseus received because people confuse him with Theseus is so real, on tiktok I saw someone insulting Perseus for "kidnapping Helen", until someone corrected them😭😭 They were so embarrassed because they had already given a lot of answers confusing Perseus and Theseus

Helen is Perseus’s half sister and step great granddaughter, that’s what makes this even funnier.

i'm haunted by the detail that big ajax uses hector's sword to kill himself. after their duel in book 7 hector and ajax trade the sword and a belt, respectively, in friendship but the cycle of violence goes inevitably on, revenge is enacted from beyond the grave, and hector gets one last kill even after he and achilles are both dead.

it fucks me up even more in the versions where hector is tied to achilles' chariot using ajax' belt. not to mention the possibility of myth variations where the chariot-dragging IS the method of execution, and not something done to hector post-mortem, which would make ajax directly complicit in hector's death.

it's a spiral of dominoes: hector kills achilles' closest companion which makes achilles kill hector which makes hector's brother kill achilles which makes achilles' friend kill himself with hector's weapon. doesn't thinking about it make you crazy!

Kaos fans are mad at me for how much I criticized the show’s depiction of Hera, y’all are not fucking ready for how mad I’ll be if Hephaestus and Perseus show up in season 2.

bioware needs to go to hell what do you MEAN we could of had a bad bitch like this in swtor. why did we NOT get arcann looking like this. sick and fuckign TWISTED

My toxic trait is that I usually end up liking the characters that fandom/community excessively hate on and deny them the nuance and understanding that they readily give to other characters (who are often just as terrible lol). Sometimes I do it out of spite, sometimes because I feel sorry for them and sometimes because I start appreciating them genuinely.
