Hector (book 6, book 16)

I have to work on my own design for it. When I draw him normally, I just take inspiration from other people's designs

In drawing from book 16 he was supposed to have blood on his face (although it didn't turn out well🫣)

Yesterday I finished reading the Iliad, and today I bought Agamemnon

I think I'm in Greek mythology heaven

Dear gods, I want to cry😭

My personal take on Patrochilles is that they are both lovers AND friends. You know how a relationship often starts with a friendship first??? Well they never grew out of the friendship part of their relationship. But their relationship is neither romantic nor platonic. They just,,, are. There was never strictly a time where they stopped being platonic and started being romantic - the lines of the nature of their relationship are really blurry - as they grew older they just started displaying affection in different ways. There was never a need to put a label on their relationship. Because like,, why have Achilles lose just a friend or just a lover - when he could lose a lover, a friend, a best friend, a brother, a comrade, a partner-in-crime ALL in one??? Really drives home the idea of Achilles' grief and rage - he literally lost the man who was everything to him.

Long story short: qpp patrochilles (in a way)
