"remember who you are"

or

bc why would the guy who’s dedicated a disturbing amount of time to finding the leviathan not check his inventory?? right after he got mad at wifies for the same thing??

ALSO wifies hotbar is never full, so presumably neither was hummers. he should have visibly seen the potion be picked back up again

ALSO ALSO he dropped it so close to himself like duh he was gonna pick it up again?? anyone who’s played minecraft for a little bit knows that you gotta launch stuff off a cliff if you don’t want it back lol

SO hummer gave himself an excuse bc he couldn’t follow wifies and who wouldn’t be able to follow wifies but a guy who doesn’t exist (omg guys i said the thing)

you know who probably wouldn’t be able to follow wifies to see leviathan? the leviathan itself. you know who would be able to “feel” a leviathan? the leviathan, cause duh. wifies makes no mention of “feeling” it (maybe that’s gonna come up later), but he experienced all the stuff people were posting about-changed screenshots, gold flecks, etc

hummer is the only guy who mentions feeling instead of seeing, and he seems to know a whole lot about how leviathan works and refuses to elaborate on why he knows

he’s the only person that’s brought up the leviathans motives or strategies to see it and IT ENDS UP WORKING?? seems like insider knowledge to me wdym you “just know” that you need to look without potions, in hardcore, and believe

The reason why Lancelot keeping his womanizer facade for a long time (TW : mentions of coping mechanism from SA)

(To preface I am not a Christian but I love learning about theology) no, “Zeus’s law” is not the same as something Christian god would decree. Zeus does not “love” humans the way that Christian god is described to love humans. “God”’s commandments are for the benefit of humans and so they love each other, Zeus’s “laws” are basically threats because we are not his children and he doesn’t even like his actual children.

you treat a Christian angel badly in disguise and they might smite you. you treat them well and they’ll reward you.

you treat a god in disguise well and they don’t kill you. you treat them badly and they kill you.

you don’t defy the gods, they are literally everywhere and everything. you don’t live under their rules because they have your best interests at heart, you live staying out of their way and making sacrifices and praying to them for your own safety because at the smallest slight, they will literally create plagues, wars, and whole seasons. Odysseus works with Athena but that is because he is the EXCEPTION not the RULE

in Christian scripture, being good and generous is rewarded. In classical mythology you literally don’t have any other choice but to make yourself useful because the gods didn’t care how many humans died in the titanomachy and they won’t care if they kill one more.

Zeus’s law isn’t a decree or a scripture, it’s a lesson you learn the hard way and you pass onto your children. But that’s also because Zeus’s law isn’t even REAL and Greek hospitality can’t be boiled down to one single aspect of their mythology and culture Mr Nolan I’m looking at you when I say this

EDIT: TL;DR is that anglicizing the concept of Xenia reduces it to essentially the most prominent western societal understanding of religion-based “deity in disguise” generosity, which comes from biblical values. My post is just defining the ways that those two instances of “gods in disguise” differ

and I don’t think that’s talked about enough.
