    Summary

    He's about to head off when Odysseus stops him with a thank you. Hermes stills, tilting his head slightly, "Don't thank me friend, I'm not the one who fought for you," he offers, bemused; he'd have gone directly to the power behind the throne.
    Hera might not like Zeus' bastard children, but she does generally hear them out before trying to smite them.
    These days.

    "Then who..?" Odysseus murmurs, and Hermes' heart breaks, just a little. He truly can't imagine that anyone would fight for him. And why would he? From what Hermes' heard through the grapevine, last he knew, Athena was no longer his mentor, let alone his friend.

    Hermes sighs, internally, lest his great-grandson get the wrong idea, before dropping down to sit on the raft with Odysseus.
    Looks like he's really doing this, then.


    Or: What else was Hermes meant to do? Not invite himself along to the end of a twenty year journey?
    Please, it's practically his job!

    Summary

    Hermes was so many things; he was smart, funny, generous, silly, sweet, benign, considerate, amorous and loving. He was everything right with the world, and his perfect smile suggested he had no capacity for rage or destruction. He was a merciful, helpful god.

    At least, that was the image of him that you had sown into your head.

    --

    You're attacked late at night. Hermes saves you.

    Summary

    Even from his new dizzyingly tall height, Tree could make out the details below with perfect clarity. Bright moonlight dappled the water’s surface, shifting and scattering into silver shards with each ripple. The sky was reflected in the water, down to the tiny pinpricks of the stars and the paintbrush strokes of the galaxies that floated in the expanse of space above.

    Beautiful, Tree thought, before his mind drifted to the accretion disk that always surrounded Black Hole, and how similar its swirling hues accented with the still-shining remains of dead stars looked to the reflections in the water.

    Is that beautiful too?

     

    or: Black Hole and Tree share a night of tranquility together.
