      and the thing is: i didn't really think that this fandom was dead in any way, but seeing this new animatic pop up on my page felt so weird😭 wdym this was made 2 days ago, that can't be real😭 it just feels so surreal for some reason. i feel like i've seen every animatic abt tsoa in existense, i know everything there is to know. for new content to just show up (and high quality one, especially)... just feels so weird

      That is honestly the best part about the book. You know how this story ends. You read each page with bated breath. Just waiting for the moment when Achilles and Patroclus' fate are sealed. Watching as the story creeps closer and closer to each character's final moments. Even though it's impossible, you wanna shout out to the characters. Tell them to stray away from the inevitable.

    Apart from the artstyle i loved the color coding in every scene, if i have it right here: Firstly blue for the times when they were still strangers, a cold color. Then yellow for the times when friendship had already sparked within them, a warmer color and also a bright one, just like their childhood together was. And finally pink for the moments romance was present, the warmest of all colors here. It was such a great detail to include and omG DO I LOVE IT

    That moment between the two of them always makes me cry... "Because you're the reason. Swear it." Oh how the tragic love story of Achilles and Patroclus hurts the heart. I read the book through tears, but in the end I absolutely balled...
    "In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood, like a hundred golden urns pouring out the sun." Now you must be miserable again with me hehehe

    So, it starts with me looking for a new musical after my SIX phase. I see EPIC. I start to listen and watch animatics. I get obsessed with gigi. I watch this animatic, Mystery of Love, even though I've never read the book. I decide to get the book. I just finished it today, and I haven't sobbed this hard in a long time
    Thank you for probably the best book I've ever read!! (And your art is actually amazing. I love it

    Even though heroes are role models for everyone, someone whom we can pray for our safety, they are just people like you and me: whole lives in needing of affection and a safe place where to reside and peacefully rest.
    Heroes too needs to heal and feel warm.
    This is in fact what Achilles' story told us, it shows much more than his mere strength: it was about balance and harmony between the divine/superhuman and the mundane.
    It is about to respect and do not take for granted the true heroes we met in our short, nearsighted... human!, lifespan.
    Do not ever forget to be charitable, loving and kind!
