    Summary

    "Chain keep us together." - The Chain, Fleetwood Mac

    “Thanks,” Dean mutters, knocking you with his shoulder.
    You’re still not sure this is a good idea. You can't shake that feeling in the back of your mind, that sense that something isn’t quite right. But when you look over at Dean, he’s smiling—a small, earnest thing that you rarely ever see on his face. And isn’t that why you left Sioux Falls with him in the first place? “‘Course.” You lean over to knock your shoulder against his too.
    You think you’d probably ignore every instinct if it meant helping your boys.

    Summary

    “There is someone else we can call in for that.” He carefully interrupted the conversation, as both sets of eyes turned to him. “Someone who’s kept an eye on heroes for…centuries.”

     

    “Him?” Hera’s voice was outraged, “You cannot think- “

     

    “- Hermes has a point.” Ares sighed, “The past is the past, and there is every chance that something will happen with the demigods as well at the same time. The Gods are needed there.”

    Summary

    There were rumors, quickly squashed by the island kingdom, that the Prince of Ithaca had grown wings on his feet when he was a boy. There were rumors that he had wings elsewhere too; on his back and behind his ears. They were squashed even quicker. Anyone who could get a look at the prince could see that his body was not adorned in feathers of any kind.

    None of them knew, and Ithaca’s royal family planned to keep it that way. Fearing that this problem of unknown origin (curse or yet another divine being’s fling with a mortal) would be seen as an insult to the gods and bring down their wrath. Odysseus has grown used to having to cut down or hide the extra appendages, but the struggle only grew when he was forced into the Trojan War.

    Now, with the war at its end and his fleet ready to return home, he only has one thing on his mind; getting home to his wife and son.

     

    OR

     

    An alternate universe where Hermes's relation to one particular Greek hero becomes a bit more prominent, and he suddenly has a much better reason to help Odysseus on his journey home.

    Summary

    Maybe Penelope was too focused on her friend and Clytemnestra was too focused on her emotions, but none of them caught the redness of his eyes, the way Odysseus's hair was similarly disheveled like Clytemnestra's.

    Maybe it was better that way...
