cemetery of laeken, brussels.

the story of a marble worker evrard flignot who devastated by the death of his wife built a mausoleum for her. at first look inside, there is a mourner reaching out to an empty wall. but, once a year, on the day of the summer solstice, the sun draws a light that recalls this love for almost a century.

God I wish elections in the fucking US wouldn’t affect literally every other country in the world

Oh sure so it's okay for Jesus to raise people back from the dead, but when I, Victor Frankenstein,

I've been talking to my friend about malevolent for a while because I need to share everything with everyone. A couple of days ago he found out that Arthur canonically had a mustache and just sent me this

I-

I don't-

I absolutely love your interpretations, especially Cassandra: she would definitely be a victim of the Web.

I also have a couple more entities opinions even if they aren't really tied to greek heroes:

Calypso would be either an avatar of the Web or, the option I like more, an avatar of the Corruption because it's often tied to toxic types of love and I could confidently say that she is the definition of it: she kept him against his will, wanting him close to her, wanting to be with him.

I could confidently say that Circe would be an avatar of the Flesh for her transmutation abilities.

Tiresias would be either an avatar of the End (because he is, y'know, a ghost) or an avatar of the Eye for his prophetic abilities.

I feel that Orpheus would be either marked or aligned with the End for his little adventures in the underworld, or the web for his abilities to enchant, or control (that might be a little of a reach), others with his music.

Medea would probably be an avatar of the Slaughter because of the extremely violent acts that she committed during her play; I'm not sure though, I'm only at season three of tma so I'm not really an expert on entities and avatars.

Just gonna throw this into the void:

Odyssey Odysseus would either be aligned with the stranger or the eye, even though I'm leaning more into the stranger due to the continuous shedding of his Identity and constant deception; Ulysses from The Divine Comedy would definitely be aligned with the eye for his even bigger want for knowledge (he literally got killed by God because he went were no human could, for him humans were made to constantly try to get more knowledge ("considerate la vostra semenza: fatti non foste a viver come bruti, ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza", translation: "Consider ye the seed from which ye sprang; Ye were not made to love like unto brutes, But for pursuit of virtue and of knowledge.")

My encounter with you Lay was so random lmao. Nevertheless, I'm saying this from the bottom of my heart, I'm glad I met you all!

(don't worry I won't snitch)

i love you guys
