    Summary

    Everyone had been begging the king for answers. They had suspected he had something to do with Poseidon’s anger. Everyone in the kingdom seemed to suspect him of angering the gods. That was the only thing that explained the constant storms that plundered their islands, or the sudden droughts that arrived days later.

    Odysseus had remained silent through it all. He neither confirmed nor denied the rumours. Just let them spread like a disease through the kingdom, causing outrage from the civilians who were affected by the god’s wrath.

    “We both changed for the worst,” the king replied. “We had different circumstances that brought that change, some more noble than others, but we both went through it. Now, we are both trying to heal. To escape the man we turned into. To find the comfort we once had. To earn a place next to our loved ones.”

    Antinous scoffed. There were no similarities between the two. Yet when the king spoke in that solemn tone, filled with guilt and grief he almost believed it.

    Summary

    For a while, Telemachus and Polites were quiet, watching the sky fade into indigo.

    Then Telemachus spoke, voice small but steady. “Uncle Polites… how come you’ve never married?”

    Polites froze. A breeze wandered through the grove, stirring silver-backed leaves. He glanced down at the boy, one brow lifting in mild surprise. “That’s a bold question,” he said, his tone light but not unkind.

    Telemachus flushed and dug at the dirt with a stick. “Sorry. I just… everyone else talks about it. The kitchen staff, the maids. Even Uncle Eurylochus talks about Auntie Ctimene. And Papa—well, Mama says I’ll probably marry one day, too. But you never… you’ve never mentioned… anyone.”

     

    Or, aroace Polites has a heart-to-heart with Telemachus.

    Summary

    The ocean waves brushed against the shores and his grandmother turned to look at him. Her eyes were not as deep now, no longer a rich green but murky and faded.

    A lump formed in his throat, every thought leaving him at the sight of her face. Serine was the only way to describe it, a peacefulness he had never seen.

    Their calm evening now felt too much like a goodbye. The setting sun an omen for events yet to come.

    Or,
    Telemachus was not having a fun time while his father was away for twenty years. Twenty years without his dad, almost eight of them spent dealing with 108 suitors trying to marry his mom, not a fun time. This is a story about Telemachus, what happened in their home while Odysseus was away and how life changed when he returned.

    Summary

    Growing up, Telemachus couldn't wait for two things. The first was his father coming home. He'd dreamt how he'd greet him, daydreaming about how his father would hug him and tell him how proud he was of Telemachus. The second was presenting as an alpha. How could he not with two amazing alpha parents like Odysseus and Penelope? He was told by so many that he would grow up to be an amazing warrior, like his parents; that he would be an amazing ruler, like his parents; that he would be an amazing alpha, like his parents.

    And then, he turned ten and two terrible things happened. His father never returned home and Telemachus presented as an omega. His training halted, so he couldn't be an amazing warrior, like his parents. He wasn't eligible to take the throne, so he couldn't be an amazing ruler, like his parents. And worst of all, he was an omega, so he would never be an amazing alpha, like his parents.

    And now, 108 suitors infest their halls, vying for his hand. Telemachus isn’t strong. Honestly, he isn’t much of anything. But, they can’t stall for much longer, and Telemachus knows that he will have to stand tall and strong to survive the upcoming storm. He’s just not sure he won’t break under the pressure.

    Summary

    He let his head fall onto Antinous’ shoulder, palms bracing against his chest for stability. He closed his eyes, letting himself be consumed by the sensations as quiet moans escaped his lips.

    Antinous' hands never stopped guiding him, urging him on, his own body trembling with need.

    __________

    When Antinous insults his family for the last time, Telemachus challenges him to a wrestling match, determined to put the suitor in his place. But Antinous is sharper than he looks, and he won't fight without a wager. If Telemachus wins, Antinous must withdraw his suit and leave Ithaca. But if he loses… he becomes Antinous' personal servant for a week.

    Summary

    When push comes to shove, Telemachus would do anything to protect his mother. There's only little time left until these men would go berserk and claim the throne as well as his mother, the Queen.

    So Telemachus orchestrated The Hunt.

    "Since I am now of age to marry, I will begin my search for a lover. Henceforth, proposals are now open... But of course, it wouldn't be fun without a challenge right?" Telemachus smirked, placing a hand on his hip and ignoring the heated gaze the hungry men gave him.

    "I seek someone who possesses both strength and intelligence." He continued.

    "Let this be a warning to those who think this is a mere game. The Hunt will not be for the weak of will or body." He lifted his chin, watching their reactions carefully. "But for the one who triumphs... they will have me."

     

    'How'd ya like that, Antinous?'

    Summary

    Telemachus is hopeless, so many unknown faces in the palace, becoming more dangerous every day that his mother does not choose one of them...

    He would do anything to defend his mother, luckily, he wasn't completely alone, not long ago, a Goddess came to help him in one of his fights against one of the suitors.

    Also, not all of them were that bad, all 107 faces were, but one of them, seeming to be the only one who really wants something good for his mother, was on his side, and protected him many times, even when it meant fighting with the other suitors.

    Amphinomus promised Telemachus that he would try everything to keep them at bay, and Athena recognized him as a guard dog taking care of a Little wolf, while all the other dogs attacked him.

    Summary

    Telemachus knew the mere thought was enough to break the rules of Xenia, but he just couldn’t take any more:

    Antinous needed to die.

    Telemachus had never killed anyone before, or anything even. Yet here he was, atop a sleeping soul, dagger pressed against its tender flesh, with the sole purpose of sending it to Hades once and for all. One little flick of his wrist would be enough to spill blood.

    Antinous deserved it.

    Then why couldn't he?

    Summary

    “How much longer will we be able to stall? They’re getting impatient.”

     

    A loud crash came from the dining hall. Shattering glass and drunken shouting.

     

    “Dangerous too. I’m not my father. I don’t think I’m strong enough to hold them back.”

     

    He looked up to the sun and said a silent prayer to whatever god was listening: Somebody help me. Come and give me the strength to do whatever it takes to keep my mom safe.

    Summary

    It has been two months since Odysseus returned.

    Telemachus is glad his father was back, he really is!

    But he couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. That he wasn't saying something. That everyone was missing something important.

    He didn't bring it up.

     

    Or; Telemachus doesn't trust his dad. He doesn't know why.

    Summary

    The ships crested over the horizon like tired seabirds, their sails ragged from the journey but still proud in the wind. The waters around Ithaca sparkled in welcome, and the cliffs, long-remembered, seemed to lean forward to greet them.

    They had done the impossible. After ten years of war and weeks at sea, the men of Ithaca were coming home—whole.

     

    Or, before leaving Troy, Odysseus does the smart thing and packs enough supplies for the return trip to Ithaca. As a result, all 600 men return. And Odysseus returns to his family.

    Meanwhile, Polites's return is bittersweet. He has no family awaiting his return. That is until a tiny hand grips his in the middle of the crowded reunion and a pair of familiar eyes blink up at him.

    Now, in this time of peace after 10 years at war, Ithaca's King and his brother-in-arms must rediscover what it means to live free and to make a home in safety.

    Summary

    The boy had lost his smile. He looked at him, his chubby little hands still outstretched. Hector's son. An enemy who won't run away when he tries to kill him.

    He was the same age as Telemachus when Odysseus went to war. The same age, and already an orphan.

    The father of the gods had only one last prophecy for that man who had never been able to be a father.

     

    The blood on your hands is something you won't lose.
    All you can choose is whose.

     

    ***

    Odysseus doesn't kill the child and the prophecy can come true. This changes a lot of things, especially because Polites doesn't care much about prophecies.

    Summary

    The owl finally landed in the sand, right next to. . . "A boy?!" Telemachus gasped, tripping to a stop beside the unconscious stranger.

    The boy looked no older than seventeen, with slightly curly jet black hair. His skin was tan, and littered with scars, and ink. He wore what looked to be sleep wear, along with a necklace of clay beads. In his hands was a writing utensil of some type, though it seemed to glow under the moonlight.

    The owl called once more, gently pecking the boy's hand.

    Aka: Percy ends up in the past, on Ithaca. Telemachus finds him, and chaos ensues.

    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

    Peisistratus had been in Ithaca for weeks. Before him, there was Diomedes. And before Diomedes, there was Antinous.
    So as Telemachus lay in bed with Peisistratus wrapped around him, he could only wonder one thing.
    When was Peisistratus going to follow in the footsteps of the last two who held him like that?
