    Summary

    "Take me instead," the boy pleads. "Please, take me instead."
    The gods are silent. The witch never listens. And Odysseus cannot save his son from hearing his screams.

    Or: What if Astyanax survived Troy, and Odysseus took him in—only for them both to become trapped on Ogygia?

    Summary

    «And you? You… will you be there to help me?»
    Odysseus surprised even himself with the question that slipped from his lips before he’d fully realized it. In that moment, he understood just how badly he needed Athena to answer yes. It was just another cry for help he was making to the goddess of wisdom, but never before had it seemed so vital to know he had her on his side.
    «I'll be there, my friend,» Athena confirmed without hesitation. The goddess's lips curled into a small smile that Odysseus managed, almost effortlessly, to return with relief.
    However, when Athena spoke again, Odysseus couldn't help but feel all those positive and hopeful feelings being stripped away from him as easily as he had just thought them arise.
    «This brings me to having to tell you about Poseidon.»

    Summary

    After regaining their memories from their past lives as Odysseus and Penelope, Annabeth and Percy have been adjusting. There are so many complicated things about the situation, like being able to recognise people from who they used to be without them even knowing who they were. Annabeth was as okay as she could be.

    Percy had been struggling.

    He wouldn't talk with her about it. But maybe he just needed a little reminder that their love was greater and stronger than anything that could get between them.

    Summary

    Odysseus slammed the only survivor against the wall, his sword pressed firmly enough against the guard’s trembling throat that blood spilled, black and reflective as it soaked under his armour.

    Which ones?” he snarled, low and feral, as monstrous as he had ever sounded. The guard only stared back, wild-eyed and silent. “You said your king stole Greek heirs. Which fucking ones?

    Barely even a gurgle in response, choked and incredulous. “How the fuck would I know, you think I keep a list of all the whores in this palace?” Something purely dangerous must have shown in his expression, the violent wall behind which he hid a terror so suffocating it would consume him alive, as the guard continued, as frantic as prey in a predator’s jaws.

    “I- the Ithacan, I know, but the others-”

    He didn’t feel the force in the shock of lighting that shot through him, only the scrape of his blade along the wall and the hollow thud of a skull falling to the stone below.

    Telemachus.

    Summary

    "Since you claim your so much wiser, why's your life spent all alone? You're alone!"

    Odysseus breathes heavy, anger and sadness and frustration searing his mind as he glares up at Athena. The landscape of Quick Thought has shifted without his realization. The expanse of stars surrounding the hourglass seem almost frozen, the consistent ticking has slowed to a noticeable degree and as he looks, really looks, at Athena her emotionless mask is very much a mask at this moment. He expects rage, maybe more sneering disappointment but all he sees is a blank face on the Goddess of Wisdom...
    "One day, you'll hear what I'm saying
    One day, you might understand
    One day, but not today."
    Her voice is tinged with such a heavy amount of grief when she speaks that he can't bring himself to offer any more rebuttal. But the weight of her next words are more than he can handle.
    "For after all you're just a man"

    Summary

    Athena was still struggling with the weight of her goodbye. At times she had her doubts but it was for the best, she would convince herself.

    If Odysseus would not listen to reason, then he can't continue being her student. It was just that simple.

    At least, it should have been.

    She'll come to find out in time that her goodbye was also her greatest mistake.

    But what will become of the lost King, the Goddess of Wisdom and everyone they are connected to from this sudden realization?

    Note: SOMEWHAT AU, HAPPENS FURTHER IN.

    Summary

    "Did she visit you often, father?”

    There was no response after his question. Not a single sign of movement. Telemachus could only stare at his father’s back, waiting for an answer.

    “Long ago, many years ago.” Odysseus finally says without looking at his son and continues walking. The prince slowly falls behind in rhythm thinking of his father’s words. They eventually make it out of the trees, seeing their palace in the short distance.

    “Do you miss her?”

    “As much as I did you and your mother”

    Summary

    The Sea looks welcoming enough to Telemachus, despite the storm.

    It would help his mother.

    That's all that counts.

    She'd be free. And he would be— Dead.

    OR:
    Got kinda inspired, idk.
    Fyi I do not know how suicide works I've never experienced it, but yeah.
    Telemachus goes through it like we all do sometimes, and this is his best solution. More in the Author notes! X

    Summary

    For a god that does almost everything, he really should get more credit.

    OR

    When the found become lost, and wings feel like chains,
    Can you really bend and break someone or exclude them entirely and expect something to not break?

    Persistence is one thing, but fragility is another.

    What really is strength?

    Summary

    The absence of Amphitrite and Nerites had undoubtedly been the hardest thing to deal with in the month following Kymanthía's birth.
    Poseidon had made the least selfish choice when he forced both his lovers to leave the palace to perform their usual duties as sea gods. After all, it was a way to get back to normality.
