The funniest thing is that in the original myth Hermes warned Circe too. So he just wanted the drama.

flirting with his great grandson is a very very odd choice but it feels hermes

The funny thing is the Hermes gave to Odysseus with the Holy Moly the power to summon a Stand to fight Circe's Chimera , so basically he just wanted to watch a Pokemon battle 😅

Alternative title- odysseus gets manhandled by Hermes for 3 minutes

I like how the animation community has de facto determined that Hermes always has his eyes hidden, be it by a nice pair of shades or whatever else

I love how Hermes is super flirtatious and Odysseus is just confused lol

Hermes just tricked Odysseus into taking drugs and I'm here for it

"Hey bbg great grandson here's some drugs go ahead, trip balls and kick some ass okay bye mwah~"

Odysseus has such lowkey "great-grandpa, PLEASE don't flirt with me" energy but gods be god-ing 😂

Odysseus: “Hermes, I’m your great grandson” Hermes: “And Hera is Zeus’ sister 😏”

Hermes being so teasing and Odysseus is so fed up with his great-grandfather lol

honestly i’m here for the flirting of Hermes, and honestly i believe it’s bc he doesn’t care and thats just him or Hermes actually forgot that was his great grandchild

Hermes: Dancing with Odysseus and having the time of his life Odysseus: Tired of his bullsh*t

2:24 Eurylochus seeing this from camp: what the fu-

“Sorry great grandpa Hermes. Mom says I’m not allowed talk to you anymore.”

Imagine pissing off one god just to have his nephew flirt with you

the little kiss at the end was literally the cherry on top. it’s so sweet. ody is already so sick of his great grandpa lmao 😭😭

I love how Hermes is simultaneously smaller than Odyssey and Taller at the same time, he flows like the ✨wind✨ I also like how everyone is just agreeing and coming to terms that the Greek god family tree is just a circle

I like how everyone agreed that Hermes has no eyes

wait is this entire plotline just a grandpa sneaking some sweets for his grandchild?

Proof Hermes will flirt with anyone and everyone.

Typical family reunion for Ody

everytime hermes' eyes are shown is when he's being creepy i don't think i want to see what's behind the shadow of his helmet

"Grand-Grandpa, could you be straight for one Minute?!" "Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, no." Edit: Honey, open the Champagner, we hit 1000 Likes!

I am so unbelivably HERE for flirty, slightly-kind-of-Very Eldritch Hermes!! I love him so much, he feels just bouncy and mischievous while also being very obviously dangerous on a whim. Edit: showed this to a friend and they just now responded with "they took my F**KING EYES" pff, I love how that's a defining charicteristic of Hermes designs in the fandom but the way you lean onto pure shadow instead of shades or hair or helmet gives him even more mild creepy factor, perfect for the God of thieves as well as messenger, ferrier of souls, protector of travelers, etc etc etc

Odysseus is 100% tripping for half of this song

New headcannon for hermes: he’s always flying bc he’s short af

Hermes- hey great-grandson, I’m going to flirt with you. Odysseus- erm ok-

1:56 That is the perfect visualisation of Odysseus' little "ah..." after Hermes says how he calls the stuff he just gave him to eat. He looks like a confused child listening to a lecture about physics who is just going along with it because there are sweets. I love it, thank you!

This entire song in 1 sentence: Odysseus: "Hermes, when did you choreograph this?"

I love how Hermes really shows his trickster side here. He's messing with Odysseus as much as he possibly can 😂

"Don't thank me, friend, you very well may die... " I really expected that lyric to finish with "I'll see you at the end," completing the rhyme but also referencing Hermes nature as a guide to the dead.

Love how the fandom agrees that Hermes comes down from the trees and that you can’t see his eyes

Athena: He's never cheated on his wife on-- *Suddenly seeing all this stuff going on.* Athena: Uhrm....

The flirting! The blush! The colors! The drawings! The kiss at the end which could be problematic! It's all ✨Chefs kiss✨!! Ne comfort video! The designs are so cute! Odysseyus' hair and face when he falls! It leaves me speechless! This is awesome!!

Hermes flirts with basically anything, even his great grandson..

not odysseus's great gramps flirting w him and he's just like "Help. What-"

I love the way Oddyseus's hair rises slowly to signify he is falling, and i ADORE the way Hermes dissapears at the end. Its so funny. he is just a little guy in the distance and then he vanishes. like that meme with the guy doing the peace sing.

There is literally no version of Hermes in any context that ISN’T fruity

Hermes giving his great grandson a kiss on the cheek for encouragement is oddly sweet to me but also him throwing his great grandson around in the air is hilarious 😂

HERMES STOP TRAUMATIZING HIM HES GOT ENOUGH OF THAT ALREADY

person x their great grandad is actually tame when you stop to think about everything else going on in greek mythology

0:42 Odysseus looks so done with his great-grandpa while Hermes is just like [] D

2:09 This is the most Hermes thing I've ever seen. Flaunting himself for his great grandson.

0:37 Odysseus be like : does this count as cheating on my wife

"AND I CALL THIS FRUIT; HOLY MOLY!" "ahh." "HAHAHAHAA"

oh my god this is so good- and the end when Hermes kisses him and Odysseus is just so fed up

someone: how many times have you watched this animatic? Me: yes

Why is 1:40 so hot- Why is a god flirting with his great grandson HOT???

No cuz Hermes kissed Odysseus, HIS FREAKING GREAT GRANDSON, on the cheek and LEFT LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED and he even has a little HEART SHAPED PHOTO OF ODYSSEUS LIKE WHAT THE HECK💀

1:19 HERMES GAVE AN INDIRECT KISS MDKXJXJDJDFJ

Odysseus one of the greatest wife guys of the Greek Pathon being flirted with from every angle is so incredibly funny to me.

I love how Hermes is casually flirting with Odysseus. It's perfect

2:00 and thats exactly why we dont take candies from strangers.

Plot twist: When Hermes is dropping Odysseus near the end he fails the catch and sends him splattering to the ground

Odysseus, probably: I'm... going to assume that was a fever dream.

The heart frame at the end is GOLD Hermes stop flirting with your descendants challenge

I love how Hermes is so flirty and Odysseus is so openly annoyed :D

God, this is incredible. I'm so happy that Hermes flirting with Odysseus is such a universal constant in every animatic, really captures Troy's charisma!

I love how Hermes is playing with Odysseus and it shows in his action. I also love how we don't get to see his eyes but we do get to see Circe's

2:00 I like how this one scene displays the undertones of horror I believe all gods have. Hermes is better at hiding it under LOTS of flirting and confidence, but he's also like Dionysus - acting cool, but can make you go mad in an instant if he wanted. The insane amount of power that they have and can use to manipulate you is scary. Awesome animatic!

I love how until Hermes offers up the root the first time Odyssey is just like "what is happening??"

context of two songs later "the fight lasts for hours" has another meaning

I love how flirty Hermes is in this animatic XD also, can't wait to see more of your desing of Circe! She looks beautiful!

What I like about Hermes character is even though he’s a trickster and the god of thieves he seems to be very genuine compared to most Gods when he’s helping people like he just walks by and is like hey need a hand?

POV Your Great Great Grandpa Give You weed :

yes we all have agreed Hermes is a chaos gremlin, always comes down from the trees, always hides his eyes, and always has a :3 face

great-grandfather having a moment with great-grandson

The entire vibe I get from this is that one scene in the Lorax when the mom was dancing demonstrating the oakamatic and her son was like “mom-mom please STOP” 😭

“And I call this fruit holy moly” Is probably one of my favorite lines from Hermes. He sounds so proud of himself

giving hermes a tooth gap has to be one of the best design choices possible for him, i absolutely love his silly vibes

you managed to capture exactly how i pictured this song (except for the dramatic inappropriate grind against odysseus when he sings "that'll grind you to the bones" LMAO) god i love hermes. the hermes saga is great

Poor Ody getting tossed around like a sack of potatoes

Eurylochus being like: oh my god are they dancing? ARE THEY DANCING? oh- no he's dead

Odysseus: Hermes please you’re my great grandfather Hermes: why does that mean you can’t dance??? Poor Odysseus getting harassed by all these gods/goddesses. But hey, at least this one is helping him for free! This was so fast!!! I am super impressed by the whole thing, and how smoothly everything flows! As mind blowing as the super powers Odysseus just had shoved down his throat honestly Thank you for making this and the others you’ve done so far!

I keep rewatching this, and I love it. But, Hermes holding the heart with Odysseus’s face on it in the end is so funny.

Hermes flirting: Odysseus: great grandpa wtf

Hermes being flirty with Odysseus wasnt definitely in my bingo card of today but somehow it fits with his character and is Ancient Greece so 😭

Ignore the grandson comments Hermes can be a flirty little guy if he wants to be, dont let it get you down, king

I like how Odysseus has a very 'I'm so tired' expression 😂

Love how every move Hermes does is sexual or flirting 😆

Ody really being like; "what was in that moly-"

odysseus is so strong for this, if hermes (specifically one played by troy) flirted with me, i would instantly collapse

The amount of zest Hermes has me jszjiwhzms 😭😭😭 HOLY MOLY (LMAO) this whole animatic was a treat to watch! I love how whimsical it is! But at the same time, Hermes, Hermes... treat Ody a little more gently, will you 😭😭 he's just a squishy mortal my guy

I like how Hermes keeps his shoulders perfectly squared the entire time, even while carrying the entire weight of Odysseus, showing how he doesn’t feel exhaustion and further extenuating his inhumanity.

Odysseus first looks like he is so done, like saying, "not the time, Hermes...." And then looks Happy because Hermes actually helps, that's wholesome.😊😄

1:02 Hermes what did we say about pinning you great grandson to the ground

Hermes: *act* *flirt* *repeat last action*

2:48 WHAT IN THE UNDERWORLD HERMES

Hermes feels like if Robin Williams's Genie had a child with a british twitch streamer who just graduated and i love it. This song is a bop

Honestly I ADORE Hermes' laugh. It's so.... creepy and trickster-y, but also light/airy in a way??? It's just so absolutely perfect. Also this animatic is beautiful!!

the romantic tension between them is crazy

I wonder if circe is in there hearing the muffled music

I don't know if this was intentional or not, but I absolutely love the fact that, in this animatic, Hermes basically helped Odysseus travel back to Circe's palace, in reference to him being the god of travel among other things. Absolutely on point

So this pretty much shows that all you need to go up against Circe is to do drugs

Hermes is such a Eldritch creature in this song. He feels like a fae

When you realise that he helped him because he's closely related to someone higher up in God hierarchy than Circe

I LOVE how much personality you can see in the characters! And especially Hermes! The playfulness he's animated with just SCREAMS "trickster" even while he provides aid to Odysseus. :'D

The “she could all but make you fall in love like your on your hundredth date” line, Odysseus looks like he has had Odyssenough

I like how Hermes was basically telling Odysseus to fight Circe by sleeping with her but Odysseus was like nah man and he was like “laaammmmeee here’s some drugs”
