Summary
“You spent twenty years trying to come home.” Penelope says. Her hand is now playing with his hair, and he is almost ashamed of how much he loves her gentleness. Almost. He has long thrown overboard any guilt about taking what he needs to survive. Still, he shakes sometimes under her touch. “You are here now - and yet, when I look at you, you seem to still be away.”
There’s a false calmness in her voice. She is upset - not with him, but with herself. Understanding smacks his mind like a rough wave against a ship. He pulls away, so he can look at wife. He props his head up on his arm, and waits until their eyes lock to speak.
“I do not miss it, Penelope.” He says.A few months after their reunion, Odysseus and Penelope have a lazy morning together.

Summary
She turns around, every instinct from her spartan upbringing stopping her from flinching when she sees Zeus standing in front of her bedroom door. But her brain catches on to his words.
She levels her coldest glare at him, absolutely uncaring that he was a god-king of gods. It didn’t matter, not if Odysseus was dead.
“What. do. You. mean. He’s not coming back.” Every word is enunciated so well that not even a baby could misunderstand. Every word dares him to strike her down.
~~~
Penelope drags Odysseus kicking and screaming back to the overworld.
Polities live's.
there needed to be more fics like this so I wrote one.

Where Our Intrepid Hero Doesn't Get Away by sparklight
Fandoms: Star Wars - All Media Types, Star Wars Legends - All Media Types, Star Wars Original Trilogy
04 May 2018

Summary
One-shots surrounding either AU situations of canon/legends works where Luke would normally have gotten away (or Vader is simply inserted into the action to come pick his child up) but in these instances doesn't, or completely new scenarios of the same. Any time an AU is mentioned to be based on a comics issue it's from the new Marvel Star Wars comics (2015) (unless otherwise noted).
There are no deep ruminations on consequences of the situations here, just our awful Sith dad picking his son up when he'd rather not be.

Summary
tumdrake: jason, on the other hand, will still do everything he normally does even if he is very, very ill. one time early patrol bruce was just going over protocol and plans and jason just passed the fuck out. just a big -thump- and he was on the ground in a gross, sweaty pile once someone managed to take his helmet off and see how awful he looked.
__________The loud thud takes Bruce by surprise. So he feels no guilt for the way his head snaps up, immediately scanning the room. Nothing on the outside edges of the Cave; Dick, Tim, and Damian are all in the same places they were when the briefing started...except now, all of them are staring at the floor. And that's when Bruce suddenly remembers that all four of his sons were here tonight.
He leans forward, half over the table. Jason is crumpled on his side on the floor, his limbs curled awkwardly beneath himself and his head dangling, the top of his helmet barely touching the ground.- Language:
