Elysian

Men use “I’m just a man” to cheat on their wives. Odysseus uses “I’m just a man” to kill, slay and torture people to get back to HIS wife. They are not the same.

people who learned about greek mythology due reasons that DONT involve having read percy jackson at 12 freak me out, like what the FUCK was going on in your life that you found out that zeus turned into a pigeon to woo his wife like HOW

What I loved most about The Other Bennet Sister, yes even more than Tom and Mary's love story, was how the narrative unapologetically stood its ground regarding there being absolutely nothing wrong with Mary that she needed to change and how everything was wrong with the toxic environment she grew up in and the people around her who never let her love herself. When she was pulled out of that environment and placed in an entirely new one, she didn't have a safety net but she could finally be herself without scrutiny. She also met and interacted with new people which included the love of her life.
