Pelops but on his early 30's and his late 40's

Aww, he got Tantalos' eye bags. But don't tell him that or he might throw you off a cliff

There were many different traditions concerning the exact placement of the episodes, and two important details of our hero’s life, his birth and death, are not mentioned at all. Perhaps the reason for this is that his death and rebirth form an important episode of his life, and his real birth and final death were uninteresting compared to this spectacular event. His birth was generally placed in Phrygia or Lydia or Asia in general, and there were just two alternatives mentioned only by a scholion: Paphlagonia and Olenos in Achaea. Regarding his mother, she is only briefly referred to by Pindar (Ol. 1. 46) without mentioning her name and has five different names in other sources: she is either called Dione, the daughter of Atlas (as in Hyginus, fab. 72); or Euryanassa, the daughter of river Paktolos; or Eurythemiste, the daughter of Xanthos, another river god in Asia Minor; or according to Pherekydes, Klytia, the daughter of Amphidamas (who is most probably of Arkadian origins). Finally she is once called Plouto(‘Wealth’), the daughter of Kronos, who appears otherwise as the mother of Tantalos. All these names resulted most probably from ad hoc speculations. Obviously, Pelops’ mother does not play any role in the myth, similar to the shadowy mother of Hippodameia who is also given three different names: usually she is called Sterope or Asterope, but Hyginus (fab. 84) calls her Euarete, daughter of Akrisios; and an ancient commentary names her as Eurythoe, daughter of Danaos.”

Anthologia Planudea 89 = Gallus This man who dined before with the blessed gods, This man who filled his belly many a time With draughts of nectar, now longs for mortal drink: But the grudging mixture’s always lower than his lips. “Drink,” says the relief, “and learn the rites of silence: “thus are we punished who can’t control our tongues.” οὗτος ὁ πρὶν μακάρεσσι συνέστιος, οὗτος ὁ νηδὺν πολλάκι νεκταρέου πλησάμενος πόματος, νῦν λιβάδος θνητῆς ἱμείρεται: ἡ φθονερὴ δὲ κρᾶσις ἀεὶ χείλευς ἐστὶ ταπεινοτέρη. ‘ πῖνε,’ λέγει τὸ τόρευμα, ‘καὶ ὄργια μάνθανε σιγῆς: ‘οἱ γλώσσῃ προπετεῖς ταῦτα κολαζόμεθα.’

The Olympians: *staring at the meat* O_e

Zeus: *blanching* Holy Khaos ...

Hera: Oh my us ...

Poseidon: What the fuck?!?!?!

Never shared this before but Pelops' death scene is charged with a lot of emotion, from fear of being a dissapoinment, a failure, and i wanted it to parallel to a certain point conversion therapy.

Tantalos is a father that claims to love his child, yet at every turn makes him feel less, or that he needs to change to fit Tantalos' idea of good.
