Patrochilles

One of the oldest gay ships in history. Yes, children of the fandom system... these are our roots... our heritage... And now a short poem for the great poet who started it all: Homer, perhaps we'd be in a different world to-day/ had you not made the Iliad so ridiculously gay/ Patroclus and Achilles are in love; I believe it to be true/ for those who deny it or say they're just friends, I know they believe it too

Fangirl Alpha: OMG have you seen the new fanart for Patrochilles?

Fangirl Beta: No?! Send me the link!

Fangirl Epsilon: I don't know how people can deny they are a thing. Achilles calls him 'my Patroclus' WAAAAAY too many times for that to only be subtext.

Fangirl Beta: I know right?!

Patrochilles

The relationship between ancient Greek heroes Achilles and Patroclus, often interpreted romantically, from "The Iliad" by Homer. Popularized in Madeline Miller's 2011 novel, "The Song of Achilles."

Person 1: Do you ship Patrochilles?
Person 2: After reading TSOA, I can't help it!
