Hector Of Troy - Tumblr Posts
But never let me die without a struggle and without acclaim
I'M NOT OKAY
“the devil (god)’s after both of us
lay my curses out to rest
make a mercy out of me”
#I'm back on my bullshit :3
Could I myself the bloody banquet join! No—to the dogs that carcase I resign.
I want I want to die
OH MY GOD WHAT AAAAH
Hektor is forced to linger without being able to go into the Underworld for twelve days.
Is haunting (like Patroklos did to Achilles in coming to him in his dream) always voluntary? And even so, would not Hektor maybe want to reach out, the longer he's stuck lingering, watching the grief around him?
And what if some of the haunting isn't even voluntary?
What if Hektor unintentionally haunted a couple of his family during those twelve days... did people see his spirit in the corridors and rooms? in the stables? Standing by Astyanax's bed?
And then the possible intentional hauntings, born from love and grief and wanting to assure even when there's nothing that can be done;
Does Andromache wake from dreams with her husband's ghostly touch on her cheek, but not having been able to embrace him? How many times? Both Andromache and Hektor yearning, and Hektor keeps reaching out, but they still can't touch.
Grieving parents waking up from dreams where Hektor assures them it doesn't matter if they will be able to bury him or not.
Paris waking up from a dream where Hektor assures him they'll have their talk, but it better not be any time soon (even a ghost can have foolish, useless hopes).
No it’s kinda crazy that Hector and Andromache had Astyanax/Scamandrios during the war.
Was he a happy accident? Did Hector weep in fear mixed with the joy, that his son will be born in a world where the victor is not decided- that any moment he can be harmed by his enemies? Or did they plan him, was Hector so confident he’d win the war, seeing it as a glorious story he’d tell his one day when he is older and Hector king?
i'm haunted by the detail that big ajax uses hector's sword to kill himself. after their duel in book 7 hector and ajax trade the sword and a belt, respectively, in friendship but the cycle of violence goes inevitably on, revenge is enacted from beyond the grave, and hector gets one last kill even after he and achilles are both dead.
it fucks me up even more in the versions where hector is tied to achilles' chariot using ajax' belt. not to mention the possibility of myth variations where the chariot-dragging IS the method of execution, and not something done to hector post-mortem, which would make ajax directly complicit in hector's death.
it's a spiral of dominoes: hector kills achilles' closest companion which makes achilles kill hector which makes hector's brother kill achilles which makes achilles' friend kill himself with hector's weapon. doesn't thinking about it make you crazy!
absolutely obsessed with this statue of hector and andromache I found out about the other day… the tender Content is SO good

personally I like to think that, amongst the nights watch slash stannis’ army when they finally get there, jon snow has a big reputation for being a whore. getting up naked in the baths and just walking out angry on alliser thorne and whatshisface while naked as his nameday. hooked up with a wildling girl beyond the wall, and now both the wildling princess and old man warrior are flirting with him like crazy in front of everyone (aka val makes barely concealed threats and tormund is constantly talking about his penis). made satin his personal assistant and the first question whatshisface has is ‘are y’all fucking.’ now alys karstark rolls up in a wedding dress and asks for jon snow personally and everyone sees them giggling together during her wedding that jon arranged? and the rizz he has is unbelievable, as sam will personally tell you
I can´t get out of mind Odysseus x Hector, yes this two where made for each other as bros, horse bois and loving hubbys, pls, I need fanart of these two being oblivious to each other flirting advances, please!
Iro, I was going to sleep like a normal human being,
Now I'm not even a husk lf my former self, please noooooo!!!!!
What if Hector doesn't let his beard grow too much because Astyanax says (not really, he's a baby, but he makes himself understood) it itches when his dad gives him little kisses while playing.
Imagine.
