Penelope and Odysseus singing "Wedding Song" from Hadestown to each other, except instead of birds they sing that "the trees gonna make the wedding bed"
*a few months after The Ithaca Saga*
Odysseus: *wakes up at the dead of night drenched in cold sweat*
Penelope: Love? What's wrong?
Odysseus: That prophet son of a bitch- IT WAS ME!
Penelope: What??
Odysseus: I WAS THE MAN WHO WAS HAUNTING ALL ALONG!!
Penelope: *pulling him down and hugging him* ok dear just go back to sleep.
*meanwhile in the Underworld*
Tiresias: Fucking finally that dumbass

This is my Penelope's design btw. Changed it like 2 weeks ago heh
Where tf is Eurylochus-
I had to xd, I have my own version of how Ctimene would react, but this is mostly a joke xd
Credits a mi hermana por la idea XD
Kicking and screaming for the ithaca saga
Well, it's been a few hours, have I stopped listening to the new saga for even a minute?
Of course not, banish the thought, I am an autistic who's hyperfixated, this'll be the only thing I listen to for months, and after that you ask?
I'll do one of two things
1. Find a new greek mythology musical to spend months of my time carving into my soul
Orrrr
2. Continue carving this musical so deep into my soul I'll remember this when I'm dead
How we feeling Epic fans?
How am I you ask? Well I stimmed so much my hands went numb and then proceeded to bite both hands so much there's probably gonna be marks tomorrow
In conclusion, I'm fucking GREAT, better then ever even
Odypen raising Telemachus if Odysseus never left for war
Real, teletubby is so done with life cause what do u mean the feared Odysseus is lit being carried by his own wife like a lovestruck middle school boy.
Over and over again

Waiting 20 long years (probably like an hour) for my devoted husband (ao3) to return home from the Trojan war (being down) and slay my horrid suitors (error message screens).
THE SAGA CONTINUES Tele go whomp whomp
I'll go first, I'm shouting out my platonic wifey! I love her sm and I don't know what I'd do without her! She doesn't have a Tumblr.
For her he remains the same
Wifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!!!!!!!!!!
Shout out your favorite wife! Platonic or not! Malewives count too!
For her he remains the same
I feel so silly because I'm trying to sing Penelope's songs and I just I don't have the vocal range!!!! All my recordings is just the voice cracks and tears because I cannot sing her :(
Really short suffering animatic I done as a test
“Then jump in the water and kiss me~”
“Penelope I’ve told you this before- you know I’m afraid of the water!”
“I’ll make sure that you are safe and sound~”
Odysseus: “gotcha beach 😏”
I’m very excited I finally finished this! I’m astounded at the attention my sketch of this is getting, I just hope this gets noticed too! Heh!
I feel like when he says “more than you know, his expression is very pained at first, like I just know he meant that! UGGH
More chibi Eurylochus but this time with his chibi friends 💚
Me: *sobbing*
My Family: you good?
Me: yeah🥺😭
Ithaca saga completely changed my brain chemistry.
My EPIC hyper fixation is getting mixed with my Arcane hyper fixation.

BEWARE, long “EPIC: The Musical” rant ahead, [Spoilers] for the Thunder Saga:
I'm surprised nobody has said this, but in Scylla's song she's not talking about Odysseus, about how she and Ody are the same monsters. She's talking about Eurylochus.
Im surprised by how many people think she's talking about Ody since the beginning, but she doesn't talk about him until the last moment, after he's already offered six of her men as an offering for her to let the rest leave in peace
When Scylla says, "you hide a reason for shame", it's just when Eury says that he has a secret he can't keep any longer, one that's been eating him form the shame and guilt When Eurylochus says "I opened the windbag while you were asleep", the animatic focuses on Ody as Scylla says
"leaving them feeling betrayed", because Ody felt betrayed that his best friend, his second in command would betray him in such a way, would be the reason why he couldn't reach his home sooner
"Breaking the bonds that you've made" again with Ody's silence, how he was mentally preparing and planning to make Eurylochus part of the sacrifices, as that was the final straw for him to become ruthless and "a monster"
"There is no price we won't pay", with Eurylochus begging for forgiveness, not because he actually is sorry, but to try and get into his captain's good side because he knows he fucked up. By that moment, he no longer trusted Ody, and I'm sure he didn't felt any actual remorse But he had to get on the man’s good side because 1. He had almost committed a mutiny (I think) when he tried to make Ody abandon their men in Circe’s island. And 2. Because Odysseus was still his captain and King. Who would want to be on their king’s bad side?
It's not until Odysseus tells Eury to light up six torches (six men to sacrifice) that Scylla is actually talking about him. And it's not till the final verse ("We are the same, you an I") that Ody actually admits he's become like Scylla.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
EPIC: The musical is such a great source of media. The characters are fucking well written, it’s such a genius and creative adaptation. The designs that every artist makes are chef kisses. And the music itself feels like it’s being sung to me by a chorus of angels right from my ears to my heart.
That’s it. That’s all that I wanted to talk about. EPIC is amazing.
Happy New Year.
I Miss Penelope.
I just realised the more Odysseus keeps talking about him missing Penelope makes me miss her too.
Odysseus: I miss my wife...
Me: Yeah me too.
Odysseus: What.
Me: What?
Me to Odysseus before Zeus thunders the shit out of his crew: Tell Penelope.........that I miss her!
Odysseus: What?- wait- I didn't tell you-
Me: Shut the hell up we all know you talk about missing Penelope. Hell the whole world knows. You take about her in. Your. Sleep. Now I'm starting to miss her too.
Me: *Looks up at Zeus* Ya know- you can kill these other men, just not me and my pal Ody.
Eurylochus/Crew: WHAT?!
Me: *Turns to Odysseus*: I miss Penelope too. I dibs on the first hugs tho-
Odysseus: HEY
Athena Meets Baby Telemachus ____________________________
Odysseus: This is my son, *Gives the baby to Athena*, Telemachus.
Athena: *Looks down, looks up, looks down again, finally looks up*, Y-you were pregnant??!
Odysseus: Huh.
Athena: All this time... no wonder why you were away for many periods of time, you were pregnant!
Odysseus: What.
Athena: All the punishments, the time outs, the hard working hours.........you were pregnant the whole time!
Penelope: Excuse me?
Athena: How did you manage to get away with it? Oh Ody I'm so sorry, I didn't know I was overworking you while being pregnant.....
Odysseus: WHAT?!
Penelope: Yah his cravings were wild, I didn't know he liked pizza with pickles and mustard
Edit:
Athena: I'm surprised you don't have a dent in your head.
Odysseus: ...
Dionysus: I'm surprised he still has good thighs.
Yall remember that in Disneys Hercules there also a series?
Odysseus and Penelope are also there too (*Wink *Wink to EPIC the Musical)
(IMAGINES BELONGED TO DISNEY HERCULES WIKIPEDIA)
Doesn't really explain many of the Odyssey but it does mentioned that he went to Troy to save Helen of Troy (Sparta), and saved Penelope from her many suitors
(Pls note that this series was created way before EPIC the Musical and was created by Disney). I'm just doing this for fun.
