Summary
Achilles and Patroclus wake up trapped in white void with one sofa, one TV, and one disembodied voice informing them that they're about to watch modern portrayals of themselves.
Achilles is outraged. Patroclus is trying to stay calm. All the tea was left in Elysium.
And we are on the ride to mayhem with them!
From Troy (2004) to The Song of Achilles to every fanfic that ever existed (plus a little revisit to the past), nothing is safe here.

Summary
Achilles was never supposed to know he was the son of Zeus. And Patroclus was never supposed to matter at all.
They met at a quiet boarding school upstate, two boys with nothing in common except a shared room, at first.
Neither of them knew the truth about who they were… until someone showed up on a field trip and monsters followed. Greek myths started feeling a little too real.
A prophecy about a child of the Big Three hung over their heads, one who could shift the balance of the gods. Zeus was never meant to have Achilles as a son. And yet, there Achilles was.
The prophecy spoke of him.
But fate had plans for Patroclus too.(A Song of Achilles AU heavily inspired by Percy Jackson, told from Patroclus’s point of view!)

Summary
Achilles has always been Earth’s strongest hero. Fearless, unstoppable, a legend.
And Patroclus? He’s right beside him now after becoming his own hero since getting bit by a radioactive spider.
However, the stakes are higher than ever before: a royal figure has been kidnapped, a global threat is rising fast, and the world’s most powerful heroes are starting to split down the middle.
Lines will be drawn. Loyalties will be tested. And things have definitely amped up from just protecting New York.
( Or… think of if Marvel & the Trojan war had a baby, that would be this fic! BTW this is a sequel to “Always an Angel, Never a God.” )
