Are We Going To Talk About How In Dangerous Jorge Perfectly Captures Odysseus’s Feeling Of Utter Loneliness

APOLLO✨✨✨

Y’all know im a fan of catchy songs~

Glad I’m not the only one lol

You know it's funny, this was supposed to be an art blog but it's kind of turned into my ramblings about epic the musical

I blame the tumblr epic community for being so welcoming and cool

In the light of recent events I have a very vivid image of Poseidon or his sirens munching on WiFi wires

Drawing a sketch for every released song from Epic the Musical bcs I am obsessed🤩

Day 1: The Troy Saga

So true!! Don’t forget his marriage to Aphrodite as well. Of course the real asshole in that situation is Zeus, because he forced her to marry him. That being said, it couldn’t have been easy on Hephaestus. By the time we get to God Games, he’s completely given up on their marriage. Even the other Gods no longer recognise them as a pair, Athena refers to Ares as Aphrodite’s lover in front of everyone. That has to have stung.

Poor Hephaestus. Abandoned by his family, rejected by his wife - it’s no wonder he hides away in his workshop with only his machines to keep him company, valuing trust above all else…

I think it's so clever the way Athena plays into Hephaestus's own issues in convincing him to let Odysseus go, because he first identifies himself with the crew, sacrificed, cast aside, but Athena reframes it to make him identify with Odysseus, who was betrayed by his crew, the people he was supposed to trust, which plays into his emotions surrounding his own toss from mount Olympus. Then she puts Odysseus into a sphere with people who love him, who want to build a future with him, implying that those that are betrayed also still have people in their corner, people who love them; that Hephaestus has people that love him too. It's so fun how much thought is put into each brief interaction in God Games

I used to set Ruthlessness as my alarm - nothing gets you out of bed quicker than hearing those waves and knowing you only have a few seconds before the POSEIDONs start

Fell asleep while listening to Epic. Woke up to "OOOOOOODYSSEUS OF ITHACA" was terrified.

Jay was in character and we were all Mico during "Odysseus"

Calypso is honestly the ultimate pick me. I can practically see her singing ‘you belong with me’ to poor Odysseus.

Ody fashions himself a hut opposite hers so they don’t have to share a bed, and every time he looks up she’s at the window with a sign.

“You ok?” You trapped me on an island what do you think the answer is Calypso??

Now just wait a damn minute-

Found this on Jay's second account from back in 2021. Thought I'd just leave it here.

hey sexy what time do you plan on being done grieving
