    Summary

    “Odysseus.” Odysseus did not startle. He also did not greet Diomedes despite having known of his approach. “Odysseus?”

    Perhaps this was some sort of battle related trauma. Diomedes ended up sitting down besides Odysseus and let his shoulder bump against the sullen King. “Talk to me, friend.”

    “...About what?”

    “What’s going on? Polites is concerned, so are your men. Was it the blood? Or the men who fell? Rest assured, friend, none of yours fell today.”

    “Do you think King Sisyphus fights against his punishment? Do you think the Fates would allow him, if he did?”

    Flinching, Diomedes observed the change in Odysseus’ eyes. Instead of the colour of the sea, Odysseus’ eyes were taken over by a hue of red– only noticeable when observed in a certain angle but definitely present. Diomedes knew what caused a hue of red like that.

    Odysseus had been touched by Ares’ Rage.

    —---

    In which Odysseus is dropped back in time into the Trojan War and chooses to mess with everyone until it gets him killed or gets him back to Penelope. Others take notice.

    Or, Odysseus is soooo done.

    Summary

    The sea keeps its prince close, but the stars have a way of calling those who dream. And Percy has always been drawn to the light.

    "Tell me about the surface again," he begs a whale, her skin weathered and scarred from countless journeys.

    She hums, a deep vibration that Percy feels in his bones. The sky changes colors, little prince. Sometimes it's as blue as your father's realm, other times it burns with reds and golds that would make Midas weep.

    Percy closes his eyes, trying to imagine it. He's seen glimpses of the sky from beneath the waves, but never in its full glory. One day, he promises himself. One day he'll see it all.
