"Kill Eurylochus, Kiss Polites, Marry Odysseus. Good to know Athena." LMAOOO 🤣🤣🤣 that was the best way to say this. I love it
"Ok so Hera is not ALL that understanding then." I mean yeah, but nobody's perfect lol
"Polites being like 'So I originally could've gotten killed by the Cyclops because Odysseus and I are besties and trusted my logic over ATHENA'S.' So dark but also kind of hilarious. XD" I did not even remotely think about it this way, but you're so right actually. I was thinking more along the lines of "so this dumbass trusted my mortal judgement over the GODDESS of WISDOM! Men all the men could've survived if he'd just made the smart decision!"
"Not just any ordinary apple... The FIRST Poison Apple. Cause it was intended to cause toxicity." You're so right actually. Maybe instead of stealing from Maleficent, I should've stole from the evil queen.
" Does this confirm Hermes learned how to be flirtatious-sounding as all hell in Dangerous and Wouldn't You Like from Aphrodite?" I mean yeah probably. Weirdly enough I didn't get flirtatious vibes from those songs, but I've always been terrible at picking up on that stuff.
"totally picture Aphrodite literally wrapping Helen in a cute pink bow and YOINKING her into Paris's arms for him to unwrap." That's canon to the fic now, congratulations
"So Athena also has bird mom traits like a certain other famous spear-wielding bird mom. Awesome!" What... does this mean? Who are you referring to? /Lh
"Although funnily enough I don't feel like Polites would've been in too much danger even if he did get outside considering there seems to be less Sirens here this time around and that there was way more numbers to help keep him from going into the water." The problem is, they might assume he wasn't under the spell until it was too late. Like they were obviously distracted sailing through the area. Then again, Odysseus probably had people specifically watching for people who looked like they were gonna throw themselves overboard.
"For once a prophecy's wording actually helps clear up a misunderstanding and prevent a potential conflict from starting. Good on you Tiresias!" This was honestly probably one of the nicest ways for a prophecy to turn out, lol.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the chapter! Thanks for commenting!
I'm just memeing about the Hermes flirting vibes tbh. Several animatics certainly have him acting in a suggestive or provactive fashion in the songs (Usually 'Wouldn't You Like') and some fan-fictions also lean into the angle of him being seductive and romantically interested in Odysseus during or following those songs. So it's really up to interpretations and your humor level.
Pearl from Steven Universe is the bird mom I was referring to!
Yeah so I think Odysseus would have Polites back with his crew commands but this solution is very fun too and I'm glad your motivation's returned!
