    Summary

    [‘Clever, clever Penelope,’ the shadows mocked, twisted versions of herself dancing on bloodstained walls. ‘You didn’t hold out enough. You were not strong enough. You couldn’t hold on just a little more for him.’

    Her own voice echoed in her own head, as she watched the shadows flicker on the walls, and then down to the fire, burning through a wide-eyed corpse, arrow through his throat, expression permanently placed in a rictus of horror and fear.

    ‘Burn, Penelope, burn, for your unfaithfulness.’]

    “Penelope?” Helen asked, softer, almost like she was speaking to a startled animal, jolting Penelope out of her thoughts of that day. “Breakfast.”

    “I’m not hungry,” she whispered, shaking the way Helen’s voice sounded like her own from her head. “I’m going to–” Weave, she was about to say, but she paused, realizing that she didn’t have to weave anymore. “-- go back to work.”

    “Pen, you just woke up. Odysseus and Telemachus are worried,” Helen continued, drawing closer to her, and Penelope startled, seeing a flash of Antinous in her movements. Helen paused, seeing the hesitation in her face, bringing her hands up to show she was unarmed, the universal gesture of showing that she wasn’t a danger.

    Summary

    Sitting around the dinner table, Telemachus was positive both of his parents were sick.

    Not only that, but both seemed adamant about hiding their illness.
    *
    The Ithacan royal couple comes down with a sickness. Telemachus is worried. Odysseus and Penelope are having a no good, very bad day. They are slightly unbearable about it. At least they have each other to hold them through the worst of it.

    Summary

    Divine Intervention. That can get a god in real trouble. Hermes knows this, but still aids Odysseus in his journey home. What happens, though, when Zeus finds out?

    Summary

    Not long after the events of his journey Odysseus falls ill. Athena is currently taking a godly nap to recover so it's up to Telemachus to find a cure for his father. Surely this will be an easy trip without past deeds coming home to roost! Surely he wont somehow make a deity mad at him! Right?

     

    Aka I made a joke about rewriting Telegony but better and soon it was no longer a joke. Now I am trapped.
    Updates once a week on Sunday unless I'm tragically indesposed or get too excited and post early.

    Summary

    He only had a son.. Right?
    Wrong.
    Unaware to anyone, Penelope had been pregnant before Odysseus left for the war in Troy.
    Oh the shock he must have when he comes home after 20 years to see he also had a daughter.
    But the way he finds out is unfortunately by the words he hears from over hearing the suitors about killing his son, and planning to rape his wife like how they raped his daughter.
    Raped? His daughter?

    Tw // Implied, not very in depth rape in the first chapter //

    Summary

    ~It would take Odysseus little more than a week to reach Ithaca on the little raft he’d built, even with divine intervention. Hermes was almost certain his descendant knew as much. Surely, the lost king could feel his influence, ensuring he never strayed too far off course even when he couldn’t row. Yet, still, he didn’t sleep.~

    Even the legendary Odysseus needs to sleep sometimes.

    Summary

    Motionless through it all, no matter how much his mind screamed at him to do something, to throw her off, kick, bite, hit, do anything.

    Once a goddess leaves an imprint on you, it’s not so easy to forget.

    OR

    Odysseus is back home, but his mind still thinks he’s in Ogygia.

    Summary

    For seven years Penelope was trapped on the island of Ogygia with a man named Antinous, a human that ended up there as a child and was used by the goddess who used to live there to escape, leaving him trapped there alone for 40 years before Penelope arrived. But when Penelope finally hit the point where she was willing to do anything to try and get away, she was given a real chance.
    She just had to get away from Antinous first.

    Summary

    Calypso had a very specific way she wanted Odysseus to look, and she wasn't afraid to starve him to achieve it. Getting home and being able to eat as much as he wanted whenever he wanted did not actually fix his eating habits. Penelope helps her husband through a bad night and assures him that she loves him.

    Summary

    Odysseus returns to Ithaca, only to find himself trapped in his mind. The weight of unspoken truths, guilt, and lingering trauma stifles him, and though reunited with his wife and son, he cannot escape the internal turmoil that keeps him distant.

    Beside him, Penelope watches – quietly, with the ache of someone who has waited, endured, and now sees the man she loves begin to unravel before her.

     

    A sequel to Beneath her Shore.

    Summary

    “How long were you there?” A long pause. Odysseus still wide eyed, staring blankly in front of him. As the silence grew, Telemachus almost asked again before a whisper cut through the silence. “7 years.”

    When Odysseus gets home, he struggles with what has happened to him. Particularly with what she did. When he gets overwhelmed by his memories, he breaks down and tells his family just what he went through to get home to them. What he endured, and in turn learns how he got off the forsaken island in the first place. Just who exactly helped him and finds comfort in the fact that his family will always be there to catch him when he feels like falling into the dark pit he is sure he deserves to be in.

    Athena is sure that after she tells them just what she did to help Odysseus they will reject her as their patron. She clearly wasn't strong enough so how could they ever want her as their goddess. She hopes they will at least let her train Telemachus. Maybe then she will redeem herself and be able to sleep at night.

    This is a story of found family, love, acceptance, and healing.

    Summary

    Hermes huffs before sitting up and carefully rearranging Odysseus in their lap. “Being a god offers plenty of advantages when it comes to wooing you mortals, I never understood the need for coercion.” They cup his chin as they speak and run their thumb over Odysseus’ lips before settling on his cheek.

    -----

    Set between Dangerous and Charybdis. Hermes watches over his favorite mortal a bit too closely after delivering the windbag to him and gets himself into the mess of dealing with much more serious feelings than he's used to.
