Being a very slow person is nodding along during every conversation until someone takes pity on you and explains what the fuck is going on

Okay but the contrast to this moment and Horse and the Infant!!
Because Odysseus begs both times, “Please don’t make me do this.”
But the first time Zeus is telling him to kill one baby to save everyone else (most importantly his wife) and he isn’t really being given a choice “This is the will of the Gods”
Whereas this time it really is a choice. A horrible choice, yes, but Odysseus is not being made to kill his crew, he is deciding between their lives and seeing his wife again. In Horse and The Infant he does something terrible to save more lives. In Thunder Bringer he does something terrible that sacrifices many lives solely to save his own. He really has become a monster.
And yet, right from the beginning Ody tells us that he would trade the world to see his son and wife. He would have always made this choice. It’s just that now he can throw the guilt away.
He has become a monster and in the same breath he is exactly the same.
