‘The Tapestry Of The Fates’ by RoosjeM
Fandoms: EPIC - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Albums), Ancient Greek Religion & Lore
15 Oct 2025

Summary
“Odysseus.” Odysseus did not startle. He also did not greet Diomedes despite having known of his approach. “Odysseus?”
Perhaps this was some sort of battle related trauma. Diomedes ended up sitting down besides Odysseus and let his shoulder bump against the sullen King. “Talk to me, friend.”
“...About what?”
“What’s going on? Polites is concerned, so are your men. Was it the blood? Or the men who fell? Rest assured, friend, none of yours fell today.”
“Do you think King Sisyphus fights against his punishment? Do you think the Fates would allow him, if he did?”
Flinching, Diomedes observed the change in Odysseus’ eyes. Instead of the colour of the sea, Odysseus’ eyes were taken over by a hue of red– only noticeable when observed in a certain angle but definitely present. Diomedes knew what caused a hue of red like that.
Odysseus had been touched by Ares’ Rage.
—---
In which Odysseus is dropped back in time into the Trojan War and chooses to mess with everyone until it gets him killed or gets him back to Penelope. Others take notice.
Or, Odysseus is soooo done.

Hold Him Close by corien

Summary
Antinous wasn’t a good person. He knew that. He never considered himself a righteous or moral person. He was selfish, barbaric, and perhaps even vain. He knew. But in a man eats man world, could anyone truly blame him?
He wasn't a good person. But perhaps he’d have to become one. Simply for the sake of staying alive.
See, recently, the Gods have been sending him dreams. Dreams of blood dripping onto castle floors from freshly lopped off heads rolling on the tiles. Dreams of Ithaca’s old King staring at him from afar, and angry red eyes shifting across the room, searching for his next prey. Dreams of a tightly wound bow, one that only Odysseus could wield, lodging a sharp arrow into his throat. Dreams like that.
Also, on an unrelated note, why the hell was everyone randomly breaking out into song?

Circe's Instructions Were Unclear. by TheMoonsingsforme
Fandoms: EPIC - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Albums)
06 Sep 2025
Tags
Summary
In short, Poseidon finds Telemachus' ship as he's sailing back to Ithaca from his diplomatic mission. After realizing it was Odysseus' son, he blinded Telemachus and drowned the ship, leaving only one survivor to tell the tale. To make sure Odysseus -if he were to ever return- would know that it was he who murdered the boy. A son for a son.
In retaliation, the Fates take pity on him and decide to send him back to when the suitors started showing up, to find a way to get rid of them once and for all, and to perhaps live to see the day his father comes back home.
In addition to this, the Fates have given him prophetic dreams, well, some are prophetic, others are of the past. Either way, he gets a new power beneath his belt and maybe he'll show the suitors just how hard a little Wolf's bite could be.

The Shield of Ithaca by Runs_With_Wolves1
Fandoms: Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rick Riordan, EPIC - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Albums)
17 May 2025
Tags
Summary
The Fates cast Percy Jackson into the past to right the wrongs that threaten the future, but he must journey back further than he imagined to stop them. He finds himself in the time of The Odyssey, where Ithaca is overrun with suitors vying for Queen Penelope's hand. The key to saving the world, to defeating Gaea, lies somewhere on Ithaca, and Percy must assume the identity of Antinous, infiltrating the suitors to find it.
To protect Penelope and her son, Percy plays a dangerous game. By day, he mocks tradition and courts the queen with sharp smiles and hollow words. By night, he intercepts assassination attempts and secretly leads Telemachus away from ambushes he doesn’t even know he’s avoided. He is their shield and protector.
But the queen and her son don’t see a protector. They see a threat.
To them, Antinous is the most cunning and dangerous of the suitors. Arrogant, intrusive, and far too clever. Telemachus loathes him, believing him the sharpest knife at his mother’s throat.
As time goes on, Percy must decide how far he’s willing to fall to save the world, and whether a hero’s heart can survive behind a villain’s name.

Summary
Still, Percy swallows, following her eyes out to the horizon. "I don't understand. I don't understand why I'm here," he tells her.
Through a slow sigh, Athena counters, "Some things don't need to be understood. They just need to happen.”
———
Rescued from death by the hands of Athena, Percy finds himself wandering through ancient Greece without a true destination. Within time, he learns that the borders of Ithaca hold more than he could have ever imagined.When he and a war-torn Odysseus are pulled far away from the kingdom, thrown back into a test by the Gods, only two questions remain: will they be able to work together to get home, and what will they give to get there?

Summary
Telemachus had long grown accustomed to life without a father. He had learned to navigate the jeers and constant harassment of the suitors, until even his own home, the grand palace that should have been his sanctuary, felt like a prison. In the absence of authority, he'd gotten used to his own freedom, answering to no one. But all of that begins to unravel when his father returns ..not alone, but accompanied by a god.

Summary
"(i still believe that) we could be kind" is a series featuring any fics that take place after "More than Dangerous". all fics aside from that one can be read or skipped around in any order, but that original fic is somewhat fundamental for understanding what the situation is. of course, you don't have to read it if you don't want to, just check the notes below! feel free to poke in whatever order you like, anarchists <3
These fics primarily take place post-canon and have a focus on hurt/comfort, found family, and recovery from events in EPIC.
Character designs (if mentioned, but also In My Head) are primarily inspired from animatics by Ximena Natzel (Hermes), Gigi (Athena), Neal Illustrator (Ares) though this is more of me shouting them out PLEASE watch their animatics if you haven't somehow they're all So So So good.

Summary
Morpheus, the God of Dreams, takes pity on the King and Queen of Ithaca. Odysseus’s return is many years away, yet his and Penelope’s minds find each other in sleep. It’s both a blessing and a curse, and sometimes all that keeps them going.
Queen Penelope stepped into the dream as easily as crossing a threshold, and with her came the sun, as if Helios's carriage rode atop her billowing black hair. The carnage vanished in her presence, the ground no longer a battlefield but a sloping grassy hill dotted with olive trees. Her bright blue eyes almost glowed, searching the hillside with clear intent.
The King of Ithaca stood, gazing at her as if she were a vision of Aphrodite herself. The blood streaking his face and staining his hands evaporated in the wake of her sunlight, the dead bundle in his arms vanishing with it.
Morpheus stared as well, unable to believe that she stood before them. It was no shaped dream becoming a nightmare, no conjuration of the King’s mind to protect himself. It was her, slipping into his dream as if it were a room in their home. Answering her husband’s desperate cries.

Having learned what Posiedon has done to Hermes for aiding Odysseus, Zeus prepares to fight his brother. A common enough occurrence, usually without dire consequence.
To those huddled in Ithaca, trying to recover and lick their wounds from time and angry gods, all that is required is to sit tight and ignore the oncoming storm... Easier said than done.
or,
a massive storm breaks out while zeus and poseidon feud. odysseus, athena, and hermes don't take it very well.

Summary
The day Lady Nereis came to Ithaca, the sea wore its gentlest face.
Polites watched more than he looked. He watched the way Nereis’s gaze slid to the palace guard and lingered—no, not to the guard. To him. He watched the tilt of her head, the dart of calculation, the faint intrigue when her eyes found the man in plain bronze with the laurel brooch at his shoulder.
She was a hunter too, then.
After, Polites moved through the first days of Nereis’s visit as he moved through everything: with care, with attention, with habit. He made sure he was never alone in a room with her without an open door and servants moving through. He set Eurylochus at the far end of any space where he stood guard. He made certain Nereis’s maid, a sharp-eyed woman called Erato, was always near.
And yet—no matter how he placed the pieces—the board kept changing.
Or, when a delegate from Zakinthos comes to Ithaca, Polites finds himself in the middle of a hunt. Except, he is the prey, and Lady Nereis will not take 'no' for an answer.

Summary
At seventeen, Telemachus refuses to live in Odysseus' shadow—he will stand beside him. He sails into the unknown, chasing whispers of his father’s name.
Captured in a distant land, Telemachus is thrown into the pit, where warriors fight for survival. There, a scarred veteran with a cold, knowing gaze stands tall beside him. Both use false names, hiding their pasts, but fate binds them.
They fight side by side, their bond growing with every battle. Blood stains the sand.
Only later, when the masks fall and the truth is revealed, will Telemachus realize: the warrior who fought beside him, the man who led him through fire—was Odysseus, his father.

“Come, husband-mine.”
They exit, leaving their guests to entertain themselves on old stories and new discussions.
The moment they are out of earshot, in the safety of their quarters, Odysseus staggers, clinging to her like he almost fell. His hands shake against her arm. She places her steady hands over his. “Odysseus–”
He bursts into tears.

Summary
Odysseus pisses off the Poseidon so much that he unintentionally screws his son. Luckily, Telemachus, being twelve, unintentionally screws even the god's vengeful plans for him. But now he has a tail and wolf ears...? (Mischief and chaos ensues as Telemachus grows up, quite literally, as Little Wolf.)
