Dear God by Speechless_since_1998 for GwenChan
Fandoms: The Song of Achilles - Madeline Miller, The Iliad - Homer, Ancient Greek Religion & Lore
13 Apr 2023

Summary
There was a god on Phthia's throne. Nobody knew his name.
They called him the Beast. The Bloodthirsty. The monster of Phthia.
Patroclus knew the rumors by heart by now, how the god took the place of the previous king in a more or less peaceful way and ruled the Myrmidons with an iron fist.
He was a bloodthirsty and violent being, but whoever went to him could apply for asylum and make his reasons about him hearing.
If you wanted help, you had to pique his interest from him.
And Patroclus was desperate enough to try that too, despite the rumors.
--------
In which Achilles is a god, and Patroclus is his most fervent believer.

Summary
Two people entered, and the old man turned to them and said, “He is delirious. Do you think he has a fever? Or an infection?”
While he was distracted, Bruce got out of bed. He didn't have a precise plan, except to get as far away from there as possible.
Thanks to the tiredness, pain, and shock, he wasn't thinking straight. Because of the pain, he didn't notice that his body felt more thoughtful as if he had gained a few pounds in muscle mass. Nor did he see that he didn't feel those nagging aches from the aches and pains of age or that he had grown taller.He passed by the toilet and almost didn't see the mirror above it. It stopped. Reflected in the mirror was a young man of about twenty-five, his chest wrapped in bandages.
He touched his face, and his heart started pounding.
"It cannot be possible. I'm young again. But this isn't my face..."
It was too much to handle in a few minutes: his blood pressure skyrocketed and he passed out.
"Master Wayne!"
(In which Bruce Wayne is murdered, and finds himself transmigrated in the novel written by his daughter, in the body of the villain that bears his name, and with a new son. )

Summary
"Robin, report."
Robin grimaced, "Not now, B. There's a problem."
"A problem? What kind of problem?"
"Someone is stealing my motorcycle wheels."
"Who?"
An asshole about to learn not to underestimate Robin, the boy thought.
When he surprised the person on the other side of the bike, he froze.
The thief was a little boy. As soon as the kid realized he was no longer alone, he froze, and the iron stuck on a bolt.
"Robin?"
"I'll call you back later," the teenager said, and cut off the call.

Summary
"You're here again," Dick's voice came distantly, and he didn't flinch.
Clark smiled sadly, "Where else am I supposed to be?"
The eighteen-year-old walked over to the bed, looking strangely at first Bruce then Clark. He had prepared for the patrol, but the Batman costume didn't fit him like Nightwing's.
The alien ignored the twinge in his chest at the thought that Nightwing had been a regular hero for less than a year before he had to give up his new identity.
“I don't know, Super. Metropolis, maybe?" Dick used a sarcastic undertone so similar to Bruce's sarcastic tone. It sank his heart.
Clark wasn't offended. He knew it was a difficult time for the young man: he was seeing another dying parent, and he just had to pray that things turned out well.
------------
Dick, Clark, and a necessary conversation about feelings.

Summary
Jason brought him ashore, “Alfred made the cookies. Do you want some?"
Tim nodded and walked over to the butler. Alfred shook his hand and waved Bruce away too.
It was a way of saying They have to talk, let's leave them alone otherwise you risk making things worse. As always, Alfred was right.
Bruce's emotional constipation was contagious.
" Who is he?" Dick asked as soon as they were alone.
“He is my younger brother. "
"I understood it, Bruce has already adopted him and ..."
“You don't understand, Dickhead. He is my biological younger brother. "

Touch by Speechless_since_1998

Summary
In a world where souls walk beside people, it's hard to hide your feelings. Especially when your dæmon cuddles with your crush.
Shouto blanched, looking like he was about to freeze everyone and run away.
He didn't, saving Aizawa a lot of headaches.
His dæmon beautifully ignored the boy's mood to continue purring against Midoriya's leg, like a damned cat and not an Arctic fox.
She was enjoying the touch, hungry for tact like Shouto but less willing to go without it, especially now that there was such an excellent heat distributor.

"Who are you?"
The boy straightened up. "My name is Timothy Drake. If you want, you can call me Tim."
"Okay, Timothy. What are you doing here?"
"I've come to meet you."
"Why?"

"What?"
“And I want to take you to Gotham. You must break the curse.”

Summary
Achilles had thrown him an apple. Again.
"Did you take it?" his boyfriend asked, frowning, and a tall pair of apples to throw at him in case it didn't.
It must be Thetis' fault, he decided.
Almost everything that hurt or embarrassed Patroclus was due to her.

Summary
"Is it okay to kiss another boy?"
Dick nearly choked on the water, while Jason turned redder than Barbara's hair.
Bruce remained very still, almost like a stone statue.
Tim watched them all with his big doe eyes, waiting for an answer.
He was extremely polite, but Dick knew that his small head was also planning several side plans in case he didn't like the answer.
Even though he knew it, he blurted loudly, "FUCK NO!"

Summary
Clark was pale. He was in a cold sweat, his hands were shaking, and his pupils were dilated. They were all telltale signs of illness.
And as usual, he wasn't saying anything so as not to upset him.
Bruce sighed. He set down the coffee and looked at his youngest son. "Damian, we talked about this."
The little boy lifted his chin in contempt. "I don't know what you're talking about, father."
He had to give it to him, he was getting better at it.

Summary
An article by Vicky Vale.
For years, Bruce Wayne shunned social interaction like the plague, becoming a local cryptic on the level of the alligator in the sewers or the free healthcare system.
When he broke out of his seclusion three years ago, Gotham's elite went into raptures for his favorite son.
Everyone has wanted a piece of Wayne ever since. In more ways than one.
But beware, ladies and gentlemen, it's not easy to get him for a pleasant tête-à-tête.
Why? Because Bruce Wayne is a single parent, and his children don't like anyone who gets too close to their father

Summary
Tim was good at not being noticed. If you wanted to follow the vigilantes at night and escape the bullies, you had to become one.
Stealth was everything, and it didn't take much between getting caught or having to retrieve the backpack in unlikely places.
It wasn't that difficult after all. He had two rules:
1.Don't wear anything flashy.
2. Never draw attention.
It was simple, anyone could do it, even an idiot.
So how had he ended up with Robin staring at him with blood dripping from his forehead?

Summary
The false beard itched like hell. Bruce tried not to scratch, but it was hard. His boots were uncomfortable, two sizes larger than he'd requested, and the fabric was shaggy.
Alfred stared at him skeptically, "Sir, I don't think it's necessary."
"This is Tim's first Christmas at the Manor. I want to make it special."

"Damian, please…" Bruce sighed, holding the spoonful of mashed potatoes in his hand.
Damian persisted in keeping his face turned away, ignoring all his pathetic attempts to get him to eat.
Bruce had to avoid swearing in frustration.
It happened all too often in those days.

Summary
"They could at least have a real date," he mumbled to himself contritely.
It will never happen. Selina wasn't one for attachments and Bruce…well, he was Bruce.
Everyone and their mother knew that Bruce's love life was a mess.
He had a tendency to prefer a certain type of woman.
Specifically, the kind that could kill him effortlessly.
None of his relationships had been remotely healthy!
Robin was Batman's partner, and it was his duty to look after B's well-being!
Ergo, he had to find someone who didn't steal from him, didn't want to sleep with him and then smear him, and no super-trained assassins obsessed with him.
Easy, isn't it?
