So many lies swirling all around you you're suffocating the empty shape in you steals your breath you're suffocating

ahahaha i'm so going to fail my greek tragedy exam you have no idea i know like 5 quotes and they're all from oedipus

no i tell a lie i know some from medea and hippolytus but thank god that they do options of questions because if i could only do antigone i would be fuckedddd

Hit the road Jack and don't you come back no more no more no more no more

we've moved on from the emperors in classics to revising greek tragedy and i forgot how dickish some mythological figures could be..i mean, anyone with the name 'creon' is just destined to be a prick who makes the wrong decisions, let's face it, and medea's beyond being a bitch (you know being a child killer and everything)

the only one i actually like is 'hippolytus' and that's probably because i have a weird crush thingy on hippolytus himself it's like drusus/narcissus all over again only this time hippolytus himself was this virgin obsessed with artemis who thought all women were evil manipulative whores

but in his defence his stepmother did kill herself and accuse him of rape
