i love every character in the secret history. they're all freaks. they're all alcoholics. they're snobs. they deserve nothing but the worst. i adore them. i want to study them as if i were a mad ornithologist and they were rare, cantankerous, bastard birds.
hey so i Fully Believe that telemachus was not afraid of odysseus in Hold Them Down
people may have told him stories of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, Athena's chosen Champion, Hero of Troy
but mama's boy telemachus sat by her feet as she wove tapestry after tapestry; and penelope told her little wolf stories of his father
how they met, how he tripped over himself to woo her, how he cried his eyes out when penelope became pregnant, how telemachus wouldn't sleep in his cot as a baby because he was so used to being in his father's arms because odysseus would not put him down; and yes, how viciously he defended their family when the atrides came to retrieve him for the war
telemachus? the child of the Unhinged Power Couple? who knew very well how horrible those suitors were, how they treated him and spoke of his mother?
took one look at his dad viciously protecting their home, their family, and thought he was the coolest, strongest person ever (after mom ofc)

Every 21st century piece of writing advice: Make us CARE about the character from page 1! Make us empathize with them! Make them interesting and different but still relatable and likable!
Every piece of classic literature: Hi. It's me. The bland everyman whose only purpose is to tell you this story. I have no actual personality. Here's the story of the time I encountered the worst people I ever met in my life. But first, ten pages of description about the place in which I met them.
Just posting this before I forget
my favorite little cockroach man
Richard was really giving y/n energy when he almost died from hypothermia and needed to be saved by a big smart man with dark hair.
Why does being really sleepy either make u feel mellow and content or like you're going to actually kill yourself for real this time & no in-between
Could you draw Dazai and Chuuya in the pregchuu AU finding out they are having a baby?
I already drew this a while back tbh
I wanted to make an animation based on Lenore and Annabel Lee, but I lost confidence and strength because exams are coming soon and I am preparing for them
Ehemm.... here you go anyway
Honestly, Chuuya always talking about Dazai every time he interacts with the ADA is SO embarrassing for him, because Dazai NEVER talks about Chuuya to them. They have no idea how weird he is about that man, so now poor Chuuya sounds like a crazy ex with a one-sided obsession. This is Dazai’s ultimate cruel trick on him…
