    Summary

    The boy blinks at him.
    Odysseus blinks back.
    The boy glances down, up, down again, down towards the scar—Then his eyes snap up to Odysseus. There seems to be a sort of confusion in his eyes.

     

    ...

     

    Odysseus almost barks at him. “You are a skinny, underdeveloped thing. Either you are a child who has grown far beyond the reasonable height or you are a peasant boy starved of food.”
    “I eat plenty well,” the boy snaps back. “And it’s not my fault you’re barely breaking past 5’5.”
    “What in the Hades does ‘five-five’ mean?” Odysseus asks, throwing his head back in annoyance. What in the hells was he doing, arguing with this kid? He might be going insane. “You know what? Get out. Leave this stupid room. I need to fucking relax without a whiny voice in my ear.”

     

    or

     

    Percy and Annabeth get transported back to the time of the Odyssey due to a prophecy. The Ithacan Royal family is confused, but thankful.

    Summary

    I wrote this because I wanted more Hermes. Basically an extended version of Hermes and Ody's trip back to Ithaca, with monster fights and therapy and all that jazz. I threw Artemis in there, too. Plus, some godly drama and Ody settling back in :)

    Summary

    Odysseus is, for a full second, determined to sacrifice his men. But Eurylochus’s eyes beg him to reconsider, and there is already so much blood on his hands - and then, in the midst of his desperation and fear, Odysseus has an almost violent epiphany: he has been given no time limit.

    And so he shrugs lightly. “That’s true, actually. I don’t want you all to die either.” He looks pointedly away from the swords pointed in his direction, meeting his second-in-command’s gaze with a beam bright enough that the man recoils. “Thanks for bringing that up, Eurylochus. You’ve given me a lot to think about.”

    Summary

    When the club smashed down Polites’ head - Odysseus’ world was diminished to ashes.
    How could he go on without his husband, his light? What would prevent him from resorting to ruthlessness and vanquishing any foe he would encounter instead of treating them with kindness like his beloved did?
    He calls to his longtime mentor Athena in desperation, begging her to find a balm that will alleviate his anguish, yet the nature of the gods prevails, and she refuses to intervene in the natural order of events.
    That's when Odysseus - ever cunning and insightful - decides to threaten suicide in front of his patron goddess, seeing no other way to continue his life without the other half of his soul, and hoping to persuade her to submission.
    The flashing-eyed goddess is caught with a wave of empathy foreign to her, and she agrees to help her prized mentee - but divine intervention comes with a price, and this one’s is particularly cruel -
    Forgetfulness.

    Summary

    Morpheus, the God of Dreams, takes pity on the King and Queen of Ithaca. Odysseus’s return is many years away, yet his and Penelope’s minds find each other in sleep. It’s both a blessing and a curse, and sometimes all that keeps them going.

    Queen Penelope stepped into the dream as easily as crossing a threshold, and with her came the sun, as if Helios's carriage rode atop her billowing black hair. The carnage vanished in her presence, the ground no longer a battlefield but a sloping grassy hill dotted with olive trees. Her bright blue eyes almost glowed, searching the hillside with clear intent.

    The King of Ithaca stood, gazing at her as if she were a vision of Aphrodite herself. The blood streaking his face and staining his hands evaporated in the wake of her sunlight, the dead bundle in his arms vanishing with it.

    Morpheus stared as well, unable to believe that she stood before them. It was no shaped dream becoming a nightmare, no conjuration of the King’s mind to protect himself. It was her, slipping into his dream as if it were a room in their home. Answering her husband’s desperate cries.

    Summary

    As Odysseus’ hand met Penelope’s ice cold one in a handshake, Odysseus couldn’t help but look into her breathtaking eyes. The second they locked together, two lone tears slid down the center of both of her perfectly-carved cheeks. He felt one of his own fall out the corner of his eye and roll down his neck. Suddenly, today isn’t the day he and Penelope begin the rest of their lives. It’s just Reaping Day.

    or

    Odysseus is reaped for The Hunger Games.

    Summary

    When they told him of what had happened Odysseus could have screamed. His husband. His husband. His husband was taken by some barbarians?!

    He growls, "What do you mean he was taken?"

    Laenor looks away suddenly shy.

    "Your grace it's not-'

    Odysseus doesn't listen, he walks out of his tent and grabs his horse. He is a man on a mission. Grabbing his sword and shield and bow and arrow he saddles his horse. He swings his leg up and straddles him his steed neighs, happy to see his owner. He scowls as Eurylochus tries to stop him.

    "Get away-'', Odysseus scowls, pulling on his horses reigns so they move back away from his second in command.

    Eurylochus shakes his head,"Please be reasonable."

    Odysseus scoffs the nerve of this man, "My husband! Husband! He was taken! In what world am I expected to be rational...much less reasonable!."

    Odysseus turns to Leanor, angry, his face filled with intimidation, "You lost my husband! You lost my husband from an ambush of barbarians! That could be doing anything to him!"

    "I will find him! And if he is hurt, you all will be given 50 lashes and gods stop me from making you all run straight to Olympus!"

    Summary

    He had defeated Charybdis and was finally on his way. His heart was racing—not out of fear or anger but some foreign emotion he could barely recognize: anticipation, maybe even excitement, or perhaps … hope.

     

    or

    Odysseus gets a glimpse of home for the first time in twenty years and allows himself to imagine that everything will work out. (based on the end of the song Charybdis because that part made me so emotional the first time I heard it)
