honestly can you imagine being agamemnon…like you rule basically the most powerful part of greece and you’re in charge of all of the greeks and you’re leading them in this 10 year war against the trojans and in the last year it’s almost ruined by this, like, 16 year old twink who challenges your authority and then runs away to sulk and probably make memes with his boyfriend, leading to the deaths of a large percentage of your army

also don’t forget that troy cannot fall without achilles’ son neoptolemus, who is literally a child at this point, so imagine you’re agamemnon and finally the person you need to kick troy’s ass to the ground is arriving, and you’re waiting on the beach for him to step off of his ship, and when this last hope for the greeks finally comes out he’s 11 years old and the first thing he does when his feet hit the ground is dab at you

According to Seneca Even AFTER Troy’s ass is kicked to the ground Agamemnon and Neoptolemus don’t get along…. imagine being Agamemnon and getting in an argument with this preteen for like 500 lines where he’s just as irritating as his dad  

themes of the trojan war:

  • humanity, lost and regained
  • the terror of beauty and love
  • agamemnon arguing with tweens
