-----
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.

Summary
“I have another boy at home,” the wistful king murmured, his words leaving his lips with the burdensome weight of memory. “Much older than you by now… the last I saw him, he wasn’t yet half your size. But he lives very far from here, on another isle across the sea.”
His own eyes stared back at him, unreactive to his words. His son was just an infant, but Odysseus realized that even if he were of rational age, he couldn’t possibly understand what he was saying. The child didn't know what existed beyond the idyllic, gilded shores of Ogygia. He didn't know of smiling people, and kingdoms, and war. The glittering isle had consumed the entirety of his life. Odysseus felt his grip around him tighten.
“You won't die on these shores, boy of mine. I swear it on my life.”

An alternate universe in which Odysseus unwillingly has a child with Calypso.

He has began to doubt that his protection would ever be enough against her.
But now he's been given one last chance to get things right and keep his son safe safe by scaping the Island where they both had been traped for the last five years, surviving the trip across the sea and taking him to Ithaca. He knows it will be hard, but he can't afford to fail.

Not A Monster Yet // Epic AU by GlorifiedDisaster

Tags
Summary
He couldn’t do it. In the end, he was no monster. He was just a man, bound by the primal need to care. It didn’t matter if it went against the gods will, he’d find a way to keep Astyanax and his family alive.
He held Astyanax closer and started to gently rock the infant, hoping to finally calm him. “I’m sorry… I’ll protect you… I promise.”
An AU where Odysseus spares Astyanax and more or less adopts him. The fanfic starts at Troy and will hopefully go all the way to Ithaca.

Summary
Penelope was horrified when her husband first told her enough about the last seven years of their separation for her to figure out what had happened. Her rage had threatened to burn her when he asked for her forgiveness. She assured him that he doesn’t need forgiven, that she is all too aware of what Antonious would have done if she was stuck on an island with just him /and he is no god/.
She had been hoping that they would finally bed but he has a nightmare of hands that aren't hers. She mentally strangles the part of her that feels disappointed. She will never have sex again if that’s what he needs and she will not selfishly let herself wish his dream had waited until after they had coupled again to haunt him.
But when his sobs begin to quiet and he looks at her with an expression she didn’t expect, she thinks that she might get what she wanted anyways.
Please watch out for the depiction of rape in a nightmare and discussions of sa after it but the main part of this fic is fully consensual! And healing! And hot (to me)! And ends fluffy as hell.
/ sorry Ody but this idea has had me in its clutches and it least it ends rrrrreal good for him~/

Summary
An AU where Hermes rescues Odysseus after a year on Calypso’s island, forced out of Olympus by an enraged Zeus who stripped him of his godhood. Hermes, newly human and writhing in pain on the shores of Ogygia, is eventually found unconscious by Ody. Despite how much Odysseus needed to be away from Calypso, he goes to her for help to heal his old friend. How will this play out now that Hermes is there, bleeding red? You’ll have to see when he wakes up.
This is an au that our Hermes made to vent, please be considerate of that. Things may be a bit out of character due to us helping Hermes write, sorry in advance as some of us are more well versed in mythos than others.

Summary
The taste of seawater still coated his throat. Even the blood lingering from the suitors couldn't wash it away. Blood and salt. Salt of sweat, of the sea, of tears. Blood of enemies, of monsters, of his friends. Twenty years of war and suffering summarized in the taste lingering on his tongue.
A hand stroked up his leg, ripping him from his thoughts with a violent flinch. On her knees before him, Penelope froze, not moving the cloth from where she held it to his knee. The lines of her face leached away, her concerned eyes and pinched brow disappearing under the memory of another woman kneeling at his feet.
