    Summary

    He doesn’t want to die there. He doesn’t want any of them to die there. They are more than their fathers and their fathers’ sins. But this kid deserves to live most of all, because the oath that slipped from his lips was not his own. Because his hands are already stained by blood and sin and an insurmountable debt to a goddess he will never know how to repay. If any of them deserve to walk away from this, it is him.

    Summary

    “What are you carving?” a few of the children ask, the younger ones hiding behind the backs of their older, braver siblings.
    “I don’t know yet,” the king replies. “But I think it’s important.”

     

    Or: In which Odysseus amasses a small army of Ithacan children, a very large army of wooden soldiers, and the support system to heal just that little bit further.

    Summary

    With the suitors taken care of, Odysseus sets sail on his journey to appease the wrath of Poseidon. He had expected the journey to be long and tiring as he had been warned he would have to travel far away from home. So imagine his surprise when he encounters a familiar face in those distant lands.

    Summary

    Telemachus and Peisistratus’s remembrance of the Telemachy as narrated by themselves.

    This is a coming of age story but it's also about love. Too big to be called friends with benefits, too pure to be called romance.
    So, If I can ask you to suspend your disbelief and trust in a deep bond with no titles: you'll like this.

    Also, there's a lot going on here. Some things are really pretty, some really ugly. Both Telemachus and Peisistratus mature a little in the process.

     

    WARNING: No smut here, but there's still sensuality and references to sex.
    For the exact same story + smutty scenes, please look for Here By Tour Side in my other works.
