Okay so I’ve seen a lot of people being like “oh Eurylochus is not a hypocrite bc he didn’t intentionally sacrifice the crew with Circe like Odysseus did with Scylla”
And while yes it is not the same, uh…….. here’s the problem from my perspective and why I still totally think he’s a hypocrite.
He was the one who had those men under his command. Odysseus gave him a mission and for that mission, Eurylochus was in charge of those guys. Then he LOSES (yes it is his fault, he was responsible for those men) the men to Circe and then runs back to Odysseus and immediately is trying to leave. He in a way is actively choosing to ABANDON those men without even TRYING to attempt a plan to save them. Like he doesn’t even think about it.
Yes Odysseus and the Scylla situation are messed up and it is not the same as Eurylochus and the Circe situation, but sorry guys this man is absolutely still a hypocrite. For his own self preservation he was about to abandon a bunch of men HE LOST to a supposed evil. The only difference is that Ody did it deliberately while Eurylochus’ incompetence caused it.
And here’s the thing, we can argue that Odysseus bc of the Scylla situation is more of a monster than Eury. I’m not even saying the mutiny is not justified. IT ABSOLUTELY WAS. The crew absolutely should have mutinied and Eury was right to challenge Ody.
However, these characters are complex and like yeah, Ody is a monster and a conniving schemer, but he is ultimately just a man trying to get home. And Eury is a fool and a hypocrite that would abandon his men for his mistakes but he is also just a tired man who is starving and suffering.
I’m not even going to pretend like this isn’t me, here in this house we defend the monke

“A Walk Through Doomed Fate” Adelaide, Walter, and Olive! This is a sneak peak to the upcoming Adelaide part in my story. I drew little Walter a “little” too small here! 😅
hot take: Miles and Gwen should NOT end up together during or at the end of Beyond the Spiderverse.
Hear me out, this is not anti gwiles at all.
I think as the audience we get to see the nuances of Gwen’s situation in ATSV and we sympathize with her and understand (well most of us). However, try considering it from Miles’ perspective.
Honestly, if Gwen put me through the crap she put Miles through (intentionally or not), it would take a LONG time before I gave her the chance to be close friends again, let alone dating.
I’m not saying gwiles shouldn’t happen. It can (it is a very cute ship) but it requires a lot of time and healing for both of them, time that honestly I don’t think BTSV is going to have. While I think the movie is probably still going to rush gwiles, I personally think honestly it would be better if at best it was hinted but not outright. But hey, we’ll see.
Adelaide,… How do you like your nickname?
Everyone and anyone needs to watch this show it’s so good
This scene. Let's talk about Bella Ramsey's infectious laughter. 🫶🏼
if somehow anyone hasn’t listened to Epic the Musical, uhhhhhhhhh GET ON THAT PLEASE
The obsession for Epic continues with Odysseus and Athena
Their relationship is... Complex
I’ve been thinking about it a lot and I think I can finally put into words why 600 strike just did not work for me.
It's the tonal dissonance. It's the breaking of immersion.
600 strike in my opinion does not keep up with the tone of the musical or even the tone set by Get in the Water. Think about it: we go from a tragic song about a god adamant about killing a man just trying to get home, both tired but completely at odds… to a song of a mortal man jetbacking and striking a god with his mortal sword before stabbing said god with his own trident. And somehow not getting killed by said god he is torturing in the process, with no indication from the song or visuals that he is being aided by divine intervention. It completely destroys any tension from the previous song and paints Poseidon as not really a threat (after all he just got owned by a mortal).
I'm sorry the saga was great and the music was amazing but honestly? I just couldn't take the last song seriously at all, which sucks bc that is supposed to be the highest moment of the musical in terms of themes and pay off.
Absolutely no hate to Jorge though, that man is my hero and an inspiration (especially as a writer and painter). I’m being serious he is an amazing and cool person and he should be proud of himself for what he has managed to create. I hope he can be fulfilled in his life as he continues to create art for himself and others.
Guess who’s been playing botw again?
How Far We’ve Come 💛✨
