I swear to the gods, if someone says “they were just good friends” OR “they’re cousins” ILL BE MAD
first of all, only in the movie Troy they’re cousins, and it’s not a faithful adaptation. still a decent movie, but id love to see an accurate one. secondly, i doubt that someone would grieve so loudly that Poseidon could hear from the bottom of the ocean, rip out his rare golden hair (which was actually considered super handsome and almost heroic in those times), keep the body because he cant bring himself to depart with it, and refuse to eat or speak for a FRIEND. that’s ROMANCE MATERIAL. #whisper #greekmythogy #achilles #patroclus #patrochilles
