    Summary

    Diomedes and Odysseus sneak in to Troy to get the Palladium, because there's a prophecy that as long as Troy has it Troy won't fall, and end up spending most of the day hanging up some washing, because Athena disguised them as servants.

    Odysseus misses home because of course he does.

    We follow Diomedes and Odysseus through a few more shenanigans, until eventually they reach home.

    Summary

    Polites nodded. "I... I didn't think Achilles would leave you here."

    Patroclus smiled slightly. "He didn't. He'll come back. We always find each other. If he can't come to me, I'll go to him."

    ***

    Patroclus, a prisoner of the Trojans, misses Achilles. It doesn't help that Achilles' son is there too.

    Or: a small deleted scene where Patroclus loves Achilles, Neoptolemus is confused, Polites is just trying to do the right thing.

    Summary

    Odysseus is a woman, she spent ten years pretending to be a man for the war, and another ten trying to get back home to her wife. Everyone she's ever loved (and hated) will now know what's taken her so long to return to Ithaca.

    She spent so long pretending she was a man that she still referes to herself as a man
    Her eye colour changing is a thing so the colour will be mentioned a lot like an odd amount

    This is NOT accurate to actual lore!!!

    Summary

    Odysseus took a deep breath. His mind working over the Prophecy's words, "What will happen if he's left to live?"

    The eagle laughed, an unnatural chilling sound, "If Astyanax is allowed to live, he would inevitably seek revenge for the fall of Troy and the death of his father, Hector. Furthermore, it is foretold that he would eventually rebuild Troy."

    Those exact words, huh?

    Or:

    Odysseus uses his hidden lawyer skills to find loopholes in the prophecy and save the baby.
    In doing so, he unknowingly acquired the 'Baby On Board' sign, therefore got immunity from his trials and hardships, lol XD

    Polites doesn't die in the cave of the cyclops. He probably should've died, but he survives and fights with all he has to stay alive, even when death feels like the kinder option. Eventually, the forgotten soldier embarks on a epic journey to get back to Ithaca, back to Odysseus, or die trying.
    He's accompanied by the patron god of travelers himself, despite not having invited him.
    Polites and Hermes face many challenges together, and through their travels they find themselves doing something neither expected...falling in love.

    Or: yet another Polites lives fic

    Summary

    "You dare defy me, mortal? You dare challenge the will of the gods?"

    After a year of siege, the Trojan War is at its end, and nineteen-year-old Odysseus, captain of the Ithacan armies, is ready to go home. Before his departure, though, he is commanded by Zeus to slay one more foe: the infant Astyanax, son of Troy's Prince Hector. Failure to do so carries a sentence of very possible death for everyone Odysseus loves.

    He should take the easy way out. He should drop Astyanax from the wall. He should choose thousands of innocent lives over a single infant foe.

    He doesn't.

    ---------

    In which Odysseus invokes the wrath of the gods, brings suffering and devastation upon Ithaca, and at once destroys and saves everything he cares about, all because he makes a very different choice that night in Troy.

    Only the brave choose mercy.

    Summary

    “Astyanax. Or… Scamandrius,” the one-eyed monster says, and laughs. “Named after both the city and river you were taken from. Fitting.”

    He leans in close. The boy can smell the sourness of blood on his breath.

    “Kill them for me, won’t you?” he breathes, voice hypnotizing. “Take from them,” and here his voice becomes deeper, rougher, scarier, and the boy lets out a cry of fear at the look on his face, “like they took from us.”

     

    Or: 10 times someone tells Astyanax his true identity, plus 1 time he decides who he is for himself.

    Summary

    if anything in the tags turns y'all off this fic, please read the notes first because they might fix it

    ---------------

    When the kings of Greece come to conscript Odysseus for the Trojan War, Penelope of Ithaca knows one thing: she will not lose her husband to war, and she will not let her son be used to take him. In a desperate attempt to save her family, Penelope offers herself to the war effort in Odysseus's place.

    Penelope is whisked away to Troy with her army, and a devastated Odysseus is left to raise his infant son alone. Even when the war ends, their trials do not. Penelope faces gods and monsters while Odysseus struggles to rule Ithaca and protect himself and his son from the malevolent suitors seeking his hand.

    Essentially, the plot of EPIC, but Penelope and Odysseus's places are switched, and the Ithaca side of the plot is quite a bit darker.

    Summary

    Telemaco quería ser legendario, aunque fuera un omega. Después de todo, eso nunca detuvo a su padre.

    Odiseo era una leyenda, y su hijo había crecido con sus historias, no con su presencia, por eso, Telemaco no pudo abrazar sus propios instintos, su naturaleza.

    Por su propio orgullo, por su supervivencia, Telemaco finge ser un alfa, finge pelear y oler como uno.

    Deseaba ser alguien, incluso si eso significaba enfrentar a Antínoo, un alfa arrogante y el líder de los pretendientes de su madre.

    Entonces, todo se fue al carajo cuando uno de ellos soltó una mordida.
