Henry And Richard In Another Universe

Not too happy with this. However, I love them.

The coolest guys you'll find around these parts 🕶 [x]

What's your take on Odysseus's trauma and recovery back in Ithaca?

*looks at all the comics I made*

Lol but really, I realistically expect it to be severely rocky. He’ll have good days, mostly bad days, but what keeps him grounded is of course his family, you know?

But imagine losing your entire fleet under your command...

...only to come back to an entire population of thousands of people, expecting that you will lead them.

What if he fails again?

Jokes aside, Bunny eats a lot quickly because of two reasons. One, he was a sibling, a younger sibling (the dinner table is a war zone people). Two, his parents sent him away to school without money (or without much of it), and he probably got used to filling his belly when he could, not knowing when the next time he’d be able to would come. ALSO why he’s so used to mooching off of friends and not feeling remorse, along with just not paying food bills (what he told Richard during their dinner).

"Henry Winter would've loved the notes app" No. Henry Winter didn't and will never love anything modern. He uses a fountain pen and isn't bothered by the ink, he even reads under candle light - for christ's sake, he uses and is obsessed with Latin, which is by the way, a dead language.

Richard waiting to be let into the Greek class like

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)

Our favorite undead asthma-haver. A ghoul, if you will

(manga panel redraw)

Bonus sskk shenanigans

i always wonder if richard made henry overly stoic and unemotional, because there’s moments where you hear of bunny being the only one to make him laugh/smile, and camilla being the ‘recipient of his infrequent smiles’. i like to think about happy henry, henry maybe not being all that stoic, just richard telling us he is.
