Summary
“Get the fuck away from me!”
“Perimedes” Eurylochus started, carefully picking his way down the steps.
“Perimedes, control yourself” Odysseus spoke over him.
“Oh, fuck you” Perimedes huffed out, a tired, hollow sound.
Odysseus squared his shoulders, stare hardening.
“Enough” he said. “If you want to make a scene, at least wait until we’re back on the beach.”
Perimedes’ nostrils flared.
"You're a fucking hypocrite!"
Or the one where yet another tragedy has struck, tensions climb impossibly higher, and all Odysseus would like is a Fucking Break!

Summary
“Achilles!” Automedon cries, between pants for air. He pulls the chariot in front of Achilles, blocking his path. Achilles' grip tightens on his sword. He feels more animal than man, wild and furious. His need for bloodshed so strong that he can almost taste it.
“Get out of my way,” he growls. “Or I will kill you myself.”
Automedon visibly shrinks.
“Prince Achilles,” he says, voice trembling. “I-”
“Well,” Achilles barks. “What is it? You are wasting my time. Do not think I will not-”
“It’s Patroclus!” He realizes then that he has interrupted his prince, and his hands begin to tremble as he tightens his hold on the horses’ reins. He watches the shift of emotion pass over Achilles’ face. Anger, to fear, then back to anger.
“What of him?” And though his voice is dripping with fury, Automedon could hear the underlying hint of distress within his words.
“He speaks.”
Or
In a frantic attempt to soothe the rage of Achilles and keep Troy’s walls from falling, the gods decide to intervene and change fate. However, that does not mean Achilles gets to go unpunished.
