    Summary

    “Astyanax. Or… Scamandrius,” the one-eyed monster says, and laughs. “Named after both the city and river you were taken from. Fitting.”

    He leans in close. The boy can smell the sourness of blood on his breath.

    “Kill them for me, won’t you?” he breathes, voice hypnotizing. “Take from them,” and here his voice becomes deeper, rougher, scarier, and the boy lets out a cry of fear at the look on his face, “like they took from us.”

     

    Or: 10 times someone tells Astyanax his true identity, plus 1 time he decides who he is for himself.

    Summary

    A year after returning to Ithaca, Odysseus struggles to hide his growing fear of water and thunder.

    A year after "600 Strike", Poseidon is inexplicably incapable of healing his wounds.

    Sick of continuing to clean up the wreckage of Odysseus' peace of mind caused by a decade of terror at the hands of Poseidon, Penelope calls on the one god that would be more than delighted to help humble his uncle and help a mortal in need:

    Dionysus.

    Summary

    Athena's been hurt, much more thoroughly than she realized was possible. For the first time in her immortal life, she is fighting against her own body and mind, and she doesn't know how to win.

    Odysseus is home. After two more weeks on sea, a fight with 108 suitors and reunited with his family, he’s quietly accepted that even a desperate prayer won’t bring his former mentor to come back. Little does he know, for two weeks, it’s all Athena’s been trying to do.

    Or, what if after God Games, Athena doesn’t wake up in the infirmary? What if it’s up to a few mortals to take care of the goddess that just collapsed in their palace, looking like she should very much be dead?

    Summary

    Gods couldn’t die. The words repeated themselves in Ares's head.

    And yet, his sister lay unmoving on the floor of the main throne room, his father’s lightning still sparking violently through her body. His family stood by his side, but no one dared say the question aloud. So he made the choice to say what all in attendance thought.

    “...is she dead?”

    - - - - - - - - -

    This is a literary retelling of EPIC from Love in Paradise and beyond. If this picks up and gets some traction, I may also continue with the Vengeance Saga and the Ithaca Saga as well. And possibly beyond.

    This will be from the perspective of the gods - occasionally, there may or may not be a mortal point of view in certain cases, but mostly it’s focusing on the Greek pantheon’s perspective.

    Summary

    “For you to take the fate of that Greek into your own hands–” The Greek… “– what gives you the right, trickster?” Wait… “– believing you are of my caliber to make such decisions of divine intervention?” Oh.

    Odysseus.

    Of course. He remembers now. The summons. Zeus’ anger. Talk of his actions on Aeaea. And then pain. Punishment. Divine retribution. It shakes him to his core, but… this was his great-grandson they were talking about. What else was he supposed to do?

    Summary

    if anything in the tags turns y'all off this fic, please read the notes first because they might fix it

    ---------------

    When the kings of Greece come to conscript Odysseus for the Trojan War, Penelope of Ithaca knows one thing: she will not lose her husband to war, and she will not let her son be used to take him. In a desperate attempt to save her family, Penelope offers herself to the war effort in Odysseus's place.

    Penelope is whisked away to Troy with her army, and a devastated Odysseus is left to raise his infant son alone. Even when the war ends, their trials do not. Penelope faces gods and monsters while Odysseus struggles to rule Ithaca and protect himself and his son from the malevolent suitors seeking his hand.

    Essentially, the plot of EPIC, but Penelope and Odysseus's places are switched, and the Ithaca side of the plot is quite a bit darker.

    Summary

    After a year of siege, the Trojan War is at its end, and nineteen-year-old Odysseus, captain of the Ithacan armies, is ready to go home. But Zeus commands him to slay one more foe: the infant Astyanax. Failure to do so carries a sentence of very possible death for everyone Odysseus loves.

    He should take the easy way out. He should choose thousands of innocent lives over a single infant foe.

    He doesn't.
    ---------
    Sixteen years after the siege of Troy, Astyanax of Ithaca has all he's ever wanted: a home, a lover, a life of privilege. But all of that hinges on the fact that almost no one in his kingdom knows who he truly is.

    When Naxy's heritage is revealed, everything and everyone he loves are thrown into peril. Forced to compete for the hand of his lover Telemachus, it is all he can do to hope that he has what it takes to save the crown prince, and Ithaca herself, from the hand of the usurper Antinous.
    ---------
    Or:

    A single, timeline-shattering choice sets off a cascade of destruction.

    A stolen prince learns the lengths he'll go for love.

    And a fallen king finally understands that only the brave choose mercy.

    Summary

    “Be happy Poseidon, I am done with you. There is a loving, faithful wife waiting for me. “However, I cannot speak for my men. They have spent countless days without a woman’s touch.”

    “Wait! Wait! How many?” The ill fated Poseidon screamed desperately.

    “600 men, give or take.” Replied Odysseus, sacker of cities. “Will that not change your stubborn mind?”

    Summary

    There's something strange about perfection being imposed onto you since birth.

     

    Once you're deep in the belief that it's a necessity you don't crawl out of said belief easily.

    Summary

    ~🟆~
    Tiresias receives a prophecy that implies the downfall of Olympus, which is not a threat the God King takes lightly. Hermes, being the divine messenger, is naturally sent away to participate in the war effort. The Trickster God promptly goes missing. With the other gods occupied, Tiresias finds the fate of his newlywed in his own hands.

    Summary

    Athena goes to Zeus in private to request Odysseus's freedom. Instead of striking Athena, Zeus offers her a deal. He will release Odysseus from Ogygia if Athena agrees to spend a year as a mortal in Odysseus's palace. With little say in the matter, she accepts.

    On Ithaca, Athena awakes in the body of a 12 year old servant, specifically an orphan servant with a reputation for poor performance. Which is good because Athena has no idea what she's doing and doesn't have much time to learn. Suitors have infected the palace, Telemachus is waiting for divine help that will never come, and Odysseus will be home in two weeks. She has a lot of work ahead of her, and it won't end when Odysseus retakes his throne.

    Summary

    Everyone has their reasons and points of views, what's true to one can be a lie to other. Sometimes, we're the villain is someone's story for nothing more than trying our best, sometimes our best isn't enough, or sometimes people just don't see it as worthy.

    This apply for the gods, too, such as Ares, Aphrodite and Hera.

    Is Ares really in the wrong for being distant, or was he just trying to protect himself? Is Aphrodite to blame for her behavior, or there really is someone else? Hera's actions are bad, or was she just trying to protect her kid?

    Everyone has their reasons, even them.

    Or

    Another perspective on the affair of Ares and Aphrodite, sometimes things are not who it seems, even people.

    Summary

    Telemachus was beginning to believe finding love would be much harder than he had originally thought, but when the most handsome man he has ever seen named Theocrites walks into his life, and into his home, he believes he has found love. Things become a little odd, random, dot like scars appearing and disappearing, the waves barely moving when he is around, and his insistence that Telemachus doesn't take the throne, but that's okay, right?

    AKA: Poseidon won't let Odysseus get away with all that he has done, so he shows Odysseus that taking a son isn't hard to do.
