Achilles at War
There is probably a toxic roman lens here that is also at play, and possibly a toxic greek lens that was there before. It gives us some real insight into achilles's relationship with his own gender,. The stress and strain that his mother's love put on him, on his gender, on his identity. Ye, i think when we get to our next epi, this is a tea parter everyone, when you've heard this episode, it sheds a lot of light on why he feels so aggressive about his honor. And i think knowing these stories, some of his behaviour, whilst very toxic, makes a little more sense, yes?
