Helen Of Troy - Tumblr Posts
So after reading TSOA ( The Song of Achilles ) I've decided that I've not suffered enough .
I'm really tempted to write TSOA from Achilles point of view —
My upcoming final exams : Baby I'm not even here I'm a hallucination
Chiron : * casually calls Achilles and Patroclus back to the cave *
Achilles : * Every damn time *
I don't think enough people realise this , that Patroclus had Accepted that Achilles would die before him and was mentally preparing himself that at some point he would have to live without Achilles even for a day . But Achilles never prepared himself for it because he ALWAYS knew he would die first not Patroclus , because without Patroclus the world wouldn't simply revolve . Without Patroclus he would be in constant suffering . He doesn't need glory and the honour Patroclus is what matters the most to him . That's why when Patroclus dies Achilles just looses it .
Ok hear me out . A fanfic where the reader or OC goes back in time ( time travel kinda thing ) to the trojan war . After reading TSOA .
Le reader : * looking around * wtf
* sees agamemnon *
Reader : * already rolling up sleeves ready to punch him *
SOMEONE WRITE THIS — and send me the name/the link
#I'm back on my bullshit :3
Helen of Troy was born from an egg, so it can be assumed that she didn't have a bellybutton.
dropped by Eris, the goddess of strife, at the wedding of Peleus and Thetis in the Greek myth of the Judgment of Paris. It sparked a vanity-fueled dispute among Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite that eventually led to the Trojan War.
The Apple of Discord (Ancient Greek: μῆλον τῆς Ἔριδος)
ΤΗΙ ΚΑΛΛΙΣΤΗΙ (Ancient Greek: τῇ καλλίστῃ, romanized: tē(i) kallistē(i), lit. 'for/to the most beautiful',
OP, I love you for this
A very serious and accurate summary of the Trojan War
Diomedes and Paris are not as young as people make them out to be
It doesn't make sense, but I'm trying to understand everyone's age, and it still doesn't come out
Peris was married with a child when Achilles was 9 years old. Diomedes was one of Helen’s suitors Achilles is not. Also, Achilles goes to war at 15 he dies at 24 and kills Troilus at 17 years old.Sacked Lyrnessus and takes Briseis at the beginning of the war.
at 17 years old.
Achilles had Neoptolemus at 12/13 years old which is disgusting but possible
(information about it APOLLODORUS or Pseudo-Apollodorus)
They were 30-something years old.Paris was 40 when he died, and he was handsome, yes, but not young
And if it's because Nestor once said Diomedes was his sons age, this man is so old.His youngest son is at war, and the man is 70 years old
If I'm wrong tell me but it doesn't make sense
And also the wedding of Achilles' parents wtf
forever thinking about how achilles’ name means “grief of the people.”
What Aphrodite did to Helen is horrible, absolutely. Yet I would never be able to get over that one scene where Helen recognizes Aphrodite after "her desirable breasts".
I am absolutely sure they didn't have this kind of books
✨Guys so this is basically my Achilles design now :333✨
Okey, really it's just something that turns out of conversations with my friend about male and female boobs, and so I gues thats just what happens when 2 trans dudes talk about it.
Still, Achilles probably wasn't too far from it, was he?
"Tongues & Teeth" is Helen and Paris bdw
"Cursres" by The Crane Wives is so Circe and Odysseus
