Keep your friends close ↑
that's a pretty cool foreshadowing, Odysseus is saying this to himself after days of not sleeping, almost trying to convince himself it's true, but he knows he has to change in order to get them home
No longer you ↓

(especially after meeting with Poseidon later) and in the song monster he accepts this

"Is the cyclops struck with guilt when he kills? Is he up in the middle of the night?
Or does he end my men to avenge his friend, and then sleep knowing he has done him right?"
Tumblr media
"When the witch turns men to pigs to protect her nymphs is she going insane?
Or did she learn to be colder when she got older, and now she saves them the pain?"
Tumblr media
"When a god comes down and makes a fleet drown is he scared that he's doing something wrong?
Or does he keep us in check so we must respect him, and now no one dares to piss him off?"
Tumblr media
"Does a soldier use a wooden horse to kill sleeping trojans 'cause he is vile?
Or does he throw away his remorse and saves more lives with guile?"

I find it incredibly funny from a meta/author perspective, that Ancient Greece decided to name their protagonist that angers many people “Anger Bringer” but, even funnier, is the in universe understating that anyone who meets Odysseus must have had the thought “oh dear, how unfortunate to be named hateful/hated” and then they have exactly One conversation with him and go “Ah I see now”
For reference, Odysseus’ name sounds very much like the Greek word odussomai, which can roughly mean “I am angry at” or “I am the cause of anger” (or simply “to hate” or “to dismiss”), a fact that is used for ironic effect frequently in the Odyssey.
It’s also specifically stated in Book 19 that Odysseus’ grandfather, a master thief and one who has also pissed off a lot of people, specifically named him this because “I am disliked by many, all across the world, and I dislike them back. So name the child Odysseus.” 19.428
Bro looked at his grandson and thought “Ahaha, this one’s going to be a troublemaker like me. Better get him started early.”
It’s like a terrible allegory for cause and effect or something.

The obsession for Epic continues with Odysseus and Athena
Their relationship is... Complex

Waymond has Polites vibes
I think of him and immediately my mind goes "This life is amazing when you greet it with open arms. Whatever we face, we'll be fine if we're leading from the heart. No matter the place, we can light up the world, here's how to start: greet the world with open arms".
Just listen to Open Arms please:
