Summary
The new king of Ithaca doesn't care much for feasting. He makes an exception when Menelaus comes to visit his court. Antinous seethes and Telemachus considers the ties that bind.
“I thought I might find you here.
“How would you?,” Antinous says. “You haven’t looked in my direction all night.”
Telemachus resists with some effort, the urge to roll his eyes. He takes a step closer, putting his hands on Antinous’ arms where they’re crossed across his chest. He can feel the tension in his body just from the flex of muscle in his forearm. When he looks up at Antinous’ face there’s a high flush on his cheeks and he’s scowling.
“I’m sorry,” he says, looking up through his eyelashes and keeping his voice coy. “Perhaps I should have entertained the king of Sparta sitting in your lap?”
