Something I'm starting to notice about this fandom; y'all can like Epic's version of Odysseus without trying to paint Calypso as a rapist.

Odysseus in the original tale did cheat on his wife. Several times. And there's nothing wrong with acknowledging that. But trying to paint him as blameless and all the other women as rapists for seducing him is not the winning move y'all think it is.

Like Tiktok is becoming the worst when it comes to the topic of Calypso.

Have you read Homer though? Because for starters you say "several times" while we have only two female figures in the Odyssey and those are Circe and Calypso.

With Circe Hermes tells Odysseus that he has no choice but to bed her if he wants to save his men who were held hostage and with Calypso he clearly states that he was unwilling:

(I translate both passages in my answer there)

Now of course there is a passage about Calypso which I analyze here:

So no it is not "several times". If anything only Calypso is the person that seems to leave the element of doubt for many and even then the idea that he was willing is clearly debunked by Homer's definitive ουκ εθέλων εθελούση (unwilling [m.] by the side of the willing [f.]).

It is post-homeric scripts including Hesiod that mention the affair with Calypso starts as willing but Homer clearly states that Odysseus was unwilling by the side of Calypso (he even proceeds to write an amazing psychological passage when Odysseus doesn't let women touch him for quite a while for example refuses the help from Nausicaa's maids and wants to bathe himself instead) and Circe was a powerful goddess that was holding his men prisoner at first and then Odysseus claims how much he fears her. Not only does he pray to Gods and begs her to let them go but also passes the night by the ships after they return from the underworld till Circe herself summons him)

It is perfectly fine if you want to follow the idea that Odysseus was unfaithful if you read other sources but interestingly enough Homer mentions how unwilling he was. What is more both of the women that he associated with are powerful immortal goddesses. It is no different than female characters being conquered by Gods in mythology. I am sure you would not blame Leda for "seducing Zeus" right?

And again no matter what even if you assume the affair with Calypso started willingly he was still raped by her. Either it started and he tried to end it and Calypso didn't take no for an answer or he never wanted that and then it is even worse.

No offence but Percy being made to feel guilty about how the gods forgot about Calypso because he was ~a little preoccupied~ and having that guilt validated is bullshit. Calypso cursing Annabeth for Percy leaving her is bullshit. Percy bearing the blame for that curse is bullshit. Annabeth having to pay the price & then basically being treated as a background prop for this shitty plot line is bullshit. Leo holding it against Percy for not choosing Calypso over saving the world is bullshit. I’m sorry if u think I’m wrong but like if it wasn’t gna be fleshed out why was it introduced I hate this

Anonymous asked:

Do you have any headcanons about Lacy?

  • lovely kid but as she grows into her teenage years, she starts feeling doubts about silena's hero status and that leads her to put up emotional walls, making her seem a bit bitchy at times
  • comes from a shitty home, so eventually drew --understanding both the home situation and the silena thing-- invited her to live with her and looks after her until she can go off on her own
  • had an unexpected friendship with nico at some point, not bc of camp but bc she's friends with cleo in BAG and I hc nico and cleo to be good friends, so she brought them together
  • she got braces bc she felt aphrodite kids had to be 'perfect' and she felt she didn't fit if she had crooked teeth (chb and its cabin stereotyping)
  • loves piper but thought she spoke out of turn when she sort of compared herself with silena in TLH
  • had a super secret crush on leo bc her type are loser nerds (affectionate)
  • can always find the right present for people, no matter where she goes, she'll find the right clothing item, book, perfume, whatever it is the person will like, she'll find it

remember when nico told jason "yeah i had a crush on percy back then, but i was young and impressionable, i already got over it"? brother in christ you're still, like, thirteen, why are you talking about your elementary school crush like he's your ex-wife whose betrayal made you vow to never love again
