Depictions of Circe (top to bottom: Circe Offering the Cup to Ulysses, Circe Invidiosa, and The Sorceress)
John William Waterhouse
c. 1891, 1892, and 1911

Oh my god Circe and Medea are my faves.

I’ve always thought it was funny in a telling way that all the Greek men are like, “They’re hotties but this is a cautionary tale because they’re terrifying and will fuck you up.”  And women everywhere forever have been like, “Yes, I want to be them.”

I am not actually into the idea of dicing up children, but seriously Jason, you brought that on yourself.
