    Summary

    “I can’t say, really,” he ponders aloud. “If Achilles were on Skyros, I’m afraid you’d just have to seek him out yourself. I can’t speak on a demigod’s behalf.”

    “Cheeky,” Odysseus shakes his head with a grin. “It’s not too late to break your vows.”

    “And be condemned down below? I think I’ll take my chances with the Trojans.”

    The girl with long blonde hair and sea blue eyes glances at them again. She looks at Patroclus, and then at Odysseus, catching his gaze for a brief second. When she looks away, she does so with no small amount of irritation.

    He thinks her name is Pyrrha.

    .
    or; his task of finding Achilles and convincing him to join the war finds Odysseus on Skyros. It seems he's not the only one here on Skyros with an agenda. In fact, it seems that everyone on Skyros has something up their sleeves. Odysseus just hopes that his sleeves are longer.

    Summary

    Odysseus had finally made it home to roost, safe with his wife, son, and great-grandfather. He had even been making amends with Athena as of late- it was hard not to, seeing how good she was with Telemachus.

    But he still had his nightmares. Of course he did. And while being back on open sea with his crew wasn’t the standard setup, seeing everyone he had once loved was pain enough and he knew it would get worse.

    Except, he never woke up. Instead he started to change things.

    And oh, that was more terrifying than a nightmare ever could be.

     

    Or: Odysseus from “I’ll Be Home With Frayed Feathers” by FictionForLife_NZ wakes up the day after his crew depart from Troy, despite having made it home to heal.

    Summary

    "Whoever can string my husband's old bow and shoot through twelve axes cleanly will be the new king, and sit down at the throne of Ithaca."

    Penelope thought she knew despair. It had been a constant feeling, a companion every candlelit night as she unraveled the shroud. It was the ache in her chest every day since the ships had left port, or the trembling of her hands every time she saw a new bruise on Telemachus' skin.

    Penelope knew despair as a constant feeling, like a patient struggle.

    For the first time, despair had betrayed her, showing her a new face and a mouth full of blood.

    Summary

    Odysseus had always been proud of the gift Athena had given him. They proved his devotion, Athena’s favor, and his own capabilities. The silver claws, the spectral wings, the owl eyes, the little feathers in his hair - he’d worn them proudly as her student, her warrior, her general.

    Now…

    He wasn’t sure what he expected when Athena had turned away from him. That the alterations would vanish? That his gifts would disappear?
