Summary
“I… I will not be able to convince him to stop fighting.” Patroclus said carefully, wary of displeasing a god, “Even my word cannot dissuade him from his destiny.”
“See that’s the fun part, you don’t have to convince him of anything.” Hypnos smiled, “In fact, you don’t have to do anything for this plan. We’re just gonna take you out of the equation for a little bit, that’s all, grant Achilles some clarity of mind.” Patroclus’ eyes went wide as he put it together, fists clenching on his thighs at Hypnos’ blithe air over such a cruel plan.
“I am to be held hostage?” he rasped, heart heavy and throat tight, “To be used against Achilles like... like a favored toy dangled over a misbehaving child?”

Summary
Sometimes he watches certain souls hover through his clearing, the ones without voices or edges or concrete features. They always look so peaceful.
Or: Patroclus talks to himself.

Summary
"Pat, this boy is just as broken as we were. But we had each other, and I don't think he has anyone. I want to give him at least one person in his life he can trust with all his heart," Achilles said.
Patroclus' dark eyes rested thoughtfully on his face. Then, he reached up to cup his husband's cheek and hold him in place while he leaned over and fitted their lips together in a warm kiss.
"Hell, why not. I always wanted kids."
Zagreus, just having escaped from an abusive household, has never known a father's unconditional love. Patroclus and Achilles find they have more than enough of it to spare. Although slowly, Zagreus begins to learn at last that there are people who genuinely care for him. And maybe, just maybe, it's not so wrong after all that one of those people is his childhood friend.
