Summary
Odysseus had been home for months, and yet he was still a long way from feeling like he was truly back. How could he when he was so busy trying to make everything normal that he didn’t have time to take actual steps like getting closer to his son. Of course, it wasn’t like he didn’t try. It just so happened that Athena always got there first. She was right there with *his* son, *his* boy, always keeping him busy so Odysseus didn’t even have a chance to be the father he never was.
So, of course, one day he decided that enough was enough and he was going to be with his son whether Athena liked it or not. And because of that, he ended up discovering two things.
One, Athena was even closer to his son than he feared.
And two, he and his boy had more in common than either of them had known. -

Summary
Penelope’s face looms into the mirror beside his. She stretches to rest her chin on his shoulder, and wraps her arms around him. Their eyes meet in the mirror. “How long have I prayed for this night,” she says softly, and squeezes her arms around his bare waist. “To have you in my arms. Odysseus.”
“I took so long. Penelope, I–” He doesn’t have the words. There are not enough, and nothing strong enough, and– and his tongue is tied in ribbons, as tattered as the rest of him.
“Hush, love.”
aka Odysseus returns home, reunites with his love, gets a bath, and starts to grieve

Summary
He's about to head off when Odysseus stops him with a thank you. Hermes stills, tilting his head slightly, "Don't thank me friend, I'm not the one who fought for you," he offers, bemused; he'd have gone directly to the power behind the throne.
Hera might not like Zeus' bastard children, but she does generally hear them out before trying to smite them.
These days."Then who..?" Odysseus murmurs, and Hermes' heart breaks, just a little. He truly can't imagine that anyone would fight for him. And why would he? From what Hermes' heard through the grapevine, last he knew, Athena was no longer his mentor, let alone his friend.
Hermes sighs, internally, lest his great-grandson get the wrong idea, before dropping down to sit on the raft with Odysseus.
Looks like he's really doing this, then.Or: What else was Hermes meant to do? Not invite himself along to the end of a twenty year journey?
Please, it's practically his job! -

Summary
So when Tele invited him for a stargazing trip, he was undeniably shocked. Stargazing? Like teenagers? They were married, it wasn't much needed. Love wasn't anything more than a courting gift and a marriage, according to Neo's standards. And by standards, he meant a bar that was practically in hell.
But Tele grabbed his hand and gave him no chance of denying his offer.

Summary
prequel to her goodbye
odysseus is "stuck in a room" with people who have partaken in his twenty-year journey- dead or alive, to say his final goodbyes with them. emotional turmoil ensues.
His entire life was a question. A plethora of what ifs, of what could’ve been. The words, the words that plagued in his mind rent-free, kept him up at night.
So many words he wished he could’ve said, with no one to say them to.
That would be his last hope. To spare a minute with those who were so dreadfully distant from him, whether it be because of death or time, and say everything he needed to say. Maybe then, he could find peace– peace from the war in his mind that prevailed in his palace.
What if such a hope could be granted?
meanwhile, despite their reconciliation, athena still holds onto her guilt for how odysseus turned out.

Summary
“If you’re looking for a mentor, I’ll make sure your time’s well spent.”
She held out a hand, hoping she was doing this mortal affection thing right.
Odysseus returned the handshake eagerly. “Sounds like a plan!” He flashed her a brilliant grin. “Goddess and man, bestest of friends—“
“We’ll see where it ends.” She may like him but she didn’t want him getting the wrong idea. He was first and foremost her pupil. She’d never had a mortal friend. She didn’t have friends at all.
or
Athena’s perspective on the plot of EPIC (and some extra closure)
Focusing on her friendship with Odysseus (and later Telemachus) and her character arc as she changes her mindset from ruthlessness to seeing the world with a bit more empathy. As canon compliant as possible while trying to keep it new and interesting!
