Me To Telemachus After Listening To Little Wolf Non-stop For Two Days: Hey There Handsome :)) Are You

Me to Telemachus after listening to little wolf non-stop for two days: hey there handsome :)) are you tired? No because YOU HAVE BEEN FIGHTING MONSTERS FOR HOURS IN MY MIND and you're doing a great job sweetie :))

This one just might be my favorite song of the saga bc it's so qkkdkdkaksjdj and Telemachus is so kakdkdjsn and ATHENA-

You get the gist

I agree with every mean thing you say about THOSE BITCHES THE SUITORS because HOW FUCKING DARE THEY ATTACK MY CHILD

I don't think you're contradicting yourself bc yeah, he fought back so they are ready to destroy him ( maybe if it had happened earlier things would have been different but it's been twenty years and all their frustration and rage has been piling up so Telemachus is screwed now) they want to rile him up , to see him try to fight them only to be inevitably beaten and remeber he's nothing compared to them BUT they also want to see him cower, run away. I think they would kill him for funsies but seeing him run is probably more fun+ it would make Penelope less mad, so at the very end , after playing with him they do give him the possibility to "run away before you die"

I also love the little wolf nickname bc it's so cute !!! One more thing that ties him to Ody !! AND THESE BITCHES USE IT TO TAUNT HIM!! TO SAY THAT HE WILL NEVER LIVE UP TO HIS FATHERS NAME!! HE WILL ALWAYS BE SMALL AND INSIGNIFICANT!! THEIR PLAYTHING!!!! yeah I'm going to ithaca to punch them all, you coming ?

I don't care about all the taunting and death threats, "I'll teach you all the lessons your daddy never could" IS NEXT LEVEL CRUEL I CAN'T WAIT FOR YOU TO DIE A GRUESOME DEATH YOU BITCH ( he's such good as a villain tho, and his voice??? Kaksksk I'm obsessed with him )

The drop when athena arrives kaksksjsjsj SO GOOD

"need some help?" All sassy and cool and akskksjsn ATHENA THANK THE GODS YOU'RE HERE

And we're so happy to see that after ten years she got a sense of humor !!! You go queen!!

But she is still the calculating strategist we know and love , so when Telemachus goes " I don't know how :(" she doesn't waste time with encouragements and feelings , without missing a beat she tells him what to do bc he knows he can and now he knows too !!

The rhyming with "that is so sick" really is so good he's such a cutie pie!! He's just a kid!!!!

"let's try this again" MAKES ME FERAL AAAAHHH SHE'S NOT ONLY MENTORING AGAIN BUT SHE'S ALSO PUTTING HERSELF OUT THERE!!! MAKING FRIENDS!!! MAKING CONNECTIONS!!!!! we're so proud of you Athena

I'm also obsessed with how Athena just got here and immediately starts insulting these "bullies" ,"dogs" , the kind of "filth" that she has no tolerance for (yes, she's totally thinking of Zeus too) and just, I wish they could hear her and know that even the gods think that they all fucking suck

I LOVE HOW THE LYRICS GET TURNED AROUND , it's such a cool thing every time !!! Show them that you got some bite ?? I am your darkest moment , the monster that always draws near?? Six hundred lives I'll take, six hundred lives I'll break and when I kill you then my pain is over??? GENIUS

EVERYONE'S VOCALS, ATHENA BEING THE BEST MENTOR AND BEST AUNT EVER, "DON'T GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT!" AAAAHHH

He loses the fight but we're all super proud, he still punched that bitch a couple of times and got a new bestie , so it's still kind of a win to me

"go back and cry in your corner , make sure your mother hears " how about YOU GO FUCK YOURSELF

Yeah, he's totally using this to threaten her into marrying someone AS IF SHE WOULD EVER AFTER THIS STUPID STUNT!!! And you're right to wonder bc , what would they even do if she chose? Maybe they have a pact to respect pen's decisions ( and we know how well those pacts work, they never caused any ten years war , nuh-uh )

Telemachus DOES SOUND SO MUCH LIKE YOUNG ODY AMSMKDJS AND HE DOESN'T KNOW!! AMDKSKSKSB OH THE ANGST

*appears from the shadows*

little wolf analysis 😏 ?

LITTLE WOLF ANALYSIS you bet

IVE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS SONG AND I HAD SUCH HIGH HOPES AND I DIDNT GET DISAPPOINTED AAAAAAAAHAHAHAHJFSJJSSKDKFKDKKF

Okay lets go

26. Little Wolf

THAT BASTARD

"Fight, little wolf, fight, wanna entertain me?" HE IS TAUNTING TELEMACHUS, HE INVADED HIS HOME AND HE ONLY SEES HIM AS A SOURCE OF ENTERTAUNMENT, A MILD BOTHER, HE CAN PLAY WITH UNTIL HES BORED THAT FUCKING DOG AND THE OTHER SUITORS JUST BACK HIM UP AH, but "little wolf"??? Is such a sweet nickname????? Also if the post I saw about Odysseus family history with wolves is true thennnn my HEART ♡♡♡ (also explains the "the pack of wolves is swimming with the sharks now) but they use it such a taunting way, belittling him, gods i wanna fight them too

"Bite, little wolf, bite, let's see how you take this" they are pushing him, just wanting to see what happens when they bother him one to many times, when you strike an animal and wait for it to lash out at you, but instead of taking it seriously for the terror that you cause, you laugh about it because you know its not a real thread to you I HATE THEM (BUT THE GRIT IN ONE OF THE SUITORS VOCALS IM DYING FOR, ALSO ANTINOUS VOICE!!! PERIMEDES!!! AAAH) "lets see how you take this" MAKES ME FERAL dont SAY THAT

"Strike, little wolf, strike, wanna be a man?Then fight, little wolf, fight, little wolf, fight" They WANT him to lash out so badly, they want to see what happens, they see him as a kid, who doesnt belong into the palace, he is the legitimate heir, but he cant take the throne without acckowledging that his father wont come back, but if they do that, his mother has no more excuses to keep off the suitors, also I HATE how they use the "man up" argument, FUCK YOU LEAVE MY BOY ALONE

"You've made your worst mistake here, might be your last one too" AH, BITCH, anyway, so I suppose up until now Telemachus just tried to avoid the suitors at any cost, dont make them upset, stay out of their way, grit your teeth and wait, because your father will be back soon...right? Right?? Greek rules of hospitality and all; they cant send them away, but theyre taking in more space and theyre pushing Telemachus into a corner. But Antinous insulted his mother, he tried to get him to open up her room, that was the first time he talked back, prepared to fight, be like his father, being legendary, even though he has no clue what hes doing; and the suitors know that, they probably saw him grow up, and belittled him almost all his life, they know just how much he is not in any position of power and strength, but he dared to talk back, and that little bit of courtesy they had to leave him alone is gone, Antinous is pissed and he wants to get rid of Telemachus anyway, hes just in his way, so he'll take him down, after having some fun first, FUCK HIM, hes such a bastard

"You'll have run out of bones to break when you and I are through" this dude didnt even need poseidon to tell him that ruthlessness is mercy to become the monster rawr rawr rawr, hes just brutal and ruthless and merciless and hes having FUN

"I'll teach you all the lessons your daddy never could" OUCH? YOU ARE NOT IN ANY ANY ANY ALTERNATIVE UNIVERSE A FATHER REPLACEMENT FOR HIM SO FUCK OFF ANTINOUS LEAVE ODYS BOY ALONE

"This cruel world doesn't give out presents just for being good", fuck you Antinous GREET THE WORLD WITH OPEN ARMS NOT KNIVES

[So Fight, little wolf, fight; Wanna entertain me Bite, little wolf, bite Let's see how you take this Strike, little wolf, strike Wanna be a man? Then fight, little wolf, fight, little wolf, fight] I love the chorus, OBSSESED WITH THE GRIT OF THE ENSAMBLE AH

The TRANSITION INTO THAT NEXT PART IS SO SMOOTH AND GOOD AND CHILLS AND AAAH

"Or die, little wolf, die" THEYRE SO RUTHLESS, THEY WOULD KILL HIM THEY WANT TO KILL HIM THEY AAAAAH BASTARDS (It sounds so good tho) They want to entertain themselves but they dont fuck around, they arent holding back, they dont care if he dies, they'd actually be delighted, fuck them

"Don't you know it's fight or Fly, little wolf, fly" fight or fly, response, he always was doign the fleeing but now this ONE time he choose fight, and they'll make him pay for it to teach him their lesson, he cant back out anymore

"All because you had to, try, little wolf try" all because he dared to step up for his mom bastards

"Run away before you, die, little wolf, die, little wolf, die" i might be contradicting myself in the things im said before, but they want him to run away, scared, like an animal they can hunt for prey, because if he doesnt; they'll fight him and ofc he has no chance against them, hes just a "kid", but that wont stop them from killing him

The music drop into Athenas quick thought Aaaahh

"Need some help?" LES GOOOOOO ATHENA TO THE RESUCE

"What's going on here?" Valid bb, Id be confused too ♡

"Is your plan to stand around? Cause I suggest you fight back" a little sarcasm huh, well at least you got humor >:)

"I don't know how" DO YOU HEAR HOW SCARED HE IS, HES FACING ANTINOUS AKD THE OTHER SUITORS AND THEY JUST KEPT ATTACKING HIM AND HE NEVER GOT THE TRAINING HE DESERVED TO FIGHT BACK aaaaaaah

"Uppercut him, now" u goooooo

(Neat soutscape, here fr)

"Woah, how did I do that? Is time now moving slow?" Again valid, and adorable, u go ! U punched him! You can fight back :D the vocal performance IS SO GOOD

"No, I just made your thoughts quick" ♡ Good mentor

"Woah, that is so sick" the rhyming here its so cuteeeeeeee, hes so exciteddddd HES LIKE ODYSSEUS WHEN THEY FIRST STARTED AAAH

"Alright now, let's try this again" ATHENA MENTOR LETS GOOO

"I've no respect for bullies, Those who impose their will, I've seen plenty enough to truly understand this kind of filth"...Zeus? (Also her vocalllsss aaah)

"Let's teach this dog a lesson In front of all his kind" her calling Antinous and the other suitors dogs that need to be taught a lesson because theyre acting up....(so much more harmless than a wolf) aaaah

"One young wolf has a larger heart than all these men combined" 🥹😭🥹😭🥹

The INSTRUMENTAL RIFF AAH

"Fight, little wolf, fight" SHES ENCOURAGING HIM AND GUIDING HIS ACTIONS NOW AAAH

also AM I HEARI G THIS RIGHT? DOES TELEMACHUS HAVE ODYS INSTRUMENTALS OCCATIONALLY??? PLS??? PLS???

"Show them that you've got some Bite, little wolf, bite" THE LYRICAL GENIUS turning it into encouraging from "bite little wolf" to "show them that you got some bite" as the phrase ITS SO GOOD AAAAAH

'Take advantage now and Strike, little wolf, strike" again guiding his actions!!!! So proudd, Ody would be grateful to her

"Don't go down without a Fight, little wolf, fight, little wolf" dont down without a fight YES

"Get up and fight" Vocal performance. Stunning AH

[Fight, little wolf, fight, Wanna entertain us? (Oh) Bite, little wolf, bite Let's see how you take this (Strike!) Strike, little wolf, strike Wanna be a man? Then (Oh) Fight, little wolf (Fight) (Fight, little wolf) (Fight)] THIS WHOLE SECTION IS SO GOOOOOD ATHENAS VOCAL PERFORMANCE AGAIN IS OUTSTANDING BEAUTIFUL POWERFULL ENCOURAGING the way she reinterpreates the suitors taunting words into encouragement IS SO GOOD I CANT EVEN AAAHHH

...and still Telemachus loses the fight

"Ooh, maybe I pushed you a bit too hard" Athena understanding the full scope of human fragility since never (but shes trying, i give her that)

"Ow" (hat pats) u did good kid, im proud of you

"Go back and cry in your corner" FUCK YOU ANTINOUS, im sure hes so upset that telemachus even dared to fight back, and is just planning his next steps

"Make sure your mother hears" ....fuck you, Antinous, he sends him back to Penelope as a warning "look what we did to your son, we can do worse, its our generosity that we sent him back at all, be grateful, or else we'll do the same to you" the vocal performance thooo

"If she won't choose a man to adorn her We'll bring blood and tears" ruthlessness.....i do wonder what would happen if she had choosen, the other 107 suitors, they seem to be respecting her having the right to choose (probably legal reasons) but eben if she would choose one, what would the others do? Are they just waiting to beat up each other as soon as she'd pick one? Or would they work together? but also MF STAY AWAY FROM MY GIRL DONT U DARE HURT HER OR TELEMACHUS >:) >:) May your blood cover the palace red

THE DROP AGAIN followed to athenas thing, AH THE INSTRUMENTALS ARE SO GOOD

----> telemachus goes back to his room to his balcony, Athena is still at his side

"Tell me, Athena, why you came to my aid" HE DOESNT KNOW HE DOESNT KNOW AAAAAAAH also his vocals ♡♡♡♡♡ HE SOUNDS SO MUCH LIKE YOUNG ODYSSEUS TOO?? AAAH

Brain mush is over LET'S GOOOO

Telemachus is my baby I adore him this is the first time we ever hear from him, his first song and what is it about? IT'S ABOUT HIS FAMILY THAT HE LOVES DEARLY ( even the pieces of it that are missing ) AND ABOUT HOW HE JUST WANTS TO BE STRONG AND BRAVE AND DEFEND THE PEOPLE HE LOVES WHAT THE FUCK HOW CAN I NOT LOVE HIM??? *sobs so much*

I love love love how much he adores and looks up to his dad ? He only knows him through stories ( that penelole told him with so much love AAAHHH) and yet he wants to be like him, he's sure he was the bravest and strongest ever , every day he imagines talking to him and telling him what's happening in the castle , he wants to be legendary so his dad will be proud and because maybe , just maybe , in being great and fighting big monsters like his dad he will find him ? Maybe going on big adventures is what he needs to feel a connection with him ?? Or maybe , just maybe, there's this hope inside of him that his father is alive and chasing after the biggest monsters is the way to find him too ?? Bc he's such a great hero so he must be after the most terrible of monsters, right?? I don't even know what I'm saying I'm so emotional

( ALSO what if he becomes legendary and his dad hears about his great tales and those tales lead him back to Telemachus?? What if what if what IF *explodes*)

But he can't do it , he doesn't know how , and he's praying for help and he needs his dad but he gets the closest thing to that, ATHENA HIS DAD'S MENTOR i'm crying again

Also he's a 100% naming every monster he can think of he's such a nerd I adore him more than words can say

When he says l-l-l-l-legendary it makes me feel like he's so small, just this young adult wanting to be big but he's still a little silly and akskjsjsbAAAAHHH

You're right he's probably so scared with all these bastards in his home "taking up space" , there's so many and they call him small and he's scared and there probably isn't a place in his own house where he is safe from them aaaaahhhhahsjsjhd and yeah , you're so right he probably has to sneak around and hide all the timeee aaaaakskskksns

"he's a mommy's boy " fr ,him and Ody could bond about how much they love peneloleeeee

PENELOPE OUR QUEEN waiting for his husband and taking no shit from the suitors FOR 20 YEARS ( her and Ody deserve each other for real they'd do anything to be back together!!!)

The suitors "oooOOooh" SLAPS SO HARD but not as hard as I would SLAP ANTONOUS IN HIS UGLY FACE ( his voice is amazing he's so scary he's a bitch I love him I want him to burn he called pen a tramp and "whatcha gonna do about it champ" aaaAAAAH)

Also also back to " I know life and fate are scary " and I know it deep in my bones that he actually doesn't bc he idolizes the myth of fighting monsters and going on adventures so much but he actually has no idea how bad it can get , just ... the parallel between him being young and naive and wanting an adventure so bad and his father losing his youth to an adventure that changed him so much and he is surviving it only bc the thought of home carries him forward... I'm not okay

( I'm aware this is mostly keysmashes and screams and I apologize for that, this saga made me even more insane that I was before)

I didnt get an ask for this BUT WE'RE BACK

my Wisdom saga reaction/analysis!!!!!

26. Legendary

"I'll fight the harpies and chimeras, the Minotaur, even Cerberus I know life and fate are scary but I wanna be l-l-l-l-legendary"....yea same like the two parts before, any monster he can think of, he gotta be one of us kids who read a lot

THEN The droppp in his voice, HE SOUNDS SO SCARED

"There are strangers in our halls" That must be TERRIFYING, just imagine that, dozens of men in your home just prying on your mother and youre too young to do anything rly

"Trying to win the heart of my mom, but she is standing tall" THAT VOCAL PERFORMANCE, W FOR PENELOPE; GIRLBOSS

"108 old faces of men who call me small" EW; 108 IS SO MANY BRO; SO MANY????? Also "old faces" ISJGSEIGJ "who call me small" boy, i feel so bad for you

"'Cause they're getting impatient, dangerous too" oh no :( so scared lil boy

"And I would fight them if I was half as strong as you" HE LOOKS UP TO HIM SO MUCH AH

"Cause it's been 20 years, 20 years" 20 FUCKING YEARS??? THATS AS OLD AS I AM (and telemachus for that measure, same age, yay!) BUT BRO IMAGINE WAITING FOR YOUR HUSBAND TO COME HOME FOR 20 YEARS; PENELOPE X ODY OTP; PENELOPE FIGHTING OFF 108 SUITORS FOR 20 YEARS AND ODY FIGHTING OF *GODS* Trying TO TRAP AND USE AND KEEP HIM, THEY DESERVE EACH OTHER

"And we still have no king" >:) >:) imagine an island without leader for 20 years oh boy h boy, the power vacuum, 108 people who want to take his place

"Give me a chance, a single opportunity and I'll overcome these obstacles and scrutiny and-" HE WANTS TO SO BADLY he juST DOESNT KNOW HOW AND WHEre TO START BC AH, also the music sounds like he just tries to sneak around his palace, to not get caught by the suitors, dodging and on guard, i can just imagine him ducking his head and looking at every corner for smth danger-

"Boy".......that slapped hard, FUCK YOU ANTINOUS (hi perimedes :) )

"When's your tramp of a mother gonna choose a new husband?" FUCK YOU STAY AWAY (the dELIVERY)

EDIT: DANGER MOTIF WHEN ANTINOUNS JOINS IN!!!!! (are there more? im new to this PLS TELL ME)

@lorethebookworm

Get up and fight!

athena is the goddess of wisdom because when a god suggests playing a game she doesn't immediately accept without knowing what is it

Yeah sleep would be nice but I can't when my brain keeps playing over and over " hell no I could kill you where you stand " and do you see it? Do you see how Ody has been through so much and he's so exhausted that upon meeting this random delusional woman who stands in his way his first response is murder? You see how he doesn't even try to reason with her? He hears "I'll keep you here" and he's immediately FUCK NO, GET OUT OF MY WAY OR FUCKING DIE I DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE FOR THIS

... and then after seven years all the fight in him is gone and he just wants to give up. Seven years. SEVEN. Can you imagine how many things he tried ? How he slowly lost hope and the strength to fight and now he just... he can't anymore

yeah, I'm totally okay about this

*drowns in her sorrows, chokes on her tears*
