    Summary

    They stared at each other for a moment, slowly, Polites leaned forward. Odysseus did as well. Their eye contact didn’t break as he tilted his head to the side and leaned in further, his eyes softening slightly as—

    Whack.

    OR; failed kiss. forehead bruises.

    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

    As the movie starts, Finney and Ernesto find themselves awkwardly sharing the couch. Ernesto, unfamiliar with spending time with Finney since Robin’s death, feels out of place. When Finney offers Ernesto a joint, the tension between them grows. Ernesto hesitates but accepts, and the atmosphere shifts, filled with an unspoken connection and the weight of Robin’s memory.

    Summary

    Finney felt vaguely nauseous at the moment. He sat rigid on the sofa, staring at his own feet, refusing to look at the boy next to him. There, Ernesto sat in the same position as the older boy, practically shaking in built-up nerves. The corsage in his hands was almost trembling out of his grip.

    Or;
    Character study on Finney coping (and lack there of) with the fact that Ernesto looks identical to his older brother.
