Summary

---------------
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
He let his head fall onto Antinous’ shoulder, palms bracing against his chest for stability. He closed his eyes, letting himself be consumed by the sensations as quiet moans escaped his lips.
Antinous' hands never stopped guiding him, urging him on, his own body trembling with need.
__________
When Antinous insults his family for the last time, Telemachus challenges him to a wrestling match, determined to put the suitor in his place. But Antinous is sharper than he looks, and he won't fight without a wager. If Telemachus wins, Antinous must withdraw his suit and leave Ithaca. But if he loses… he becomes Antinous' personal servant for a week.

Summary
Percy knew that traveling back to ancient Greece wouldn’t be a walk in the park (time travel was supposed to be impossible), but he was determined to keep his promise to Telemachus; not knowing that being back wouldn‘t solve all of his problems like some Holy Moly.
But Percy was one stubborn demigod, and he had a lot to fight for. He would face gods, suitors, and arrogant guards, as well as unfairness, schemes and heartbreak gladly, if it meant to finally reach his Dream-Boy again. And…cows (?) where in Hades did they come from? And what was that about someone trying to trap his Prince in a marriage?!
Oh, and Ody would also need a way back home to finally rid the palace of all the rats crawling around.
All in all, there would be enough to keep him entertained for a while…if he could only find the answer to the most useless crappy riddle the Fates had ever spun! (Pun intended, but not appreciated…)
Or
Telemachus was sick of waiting. Especially when it came to Poseidon's slow-witted and completely blind son, who, even after months (or years) of hints, still didn't understand that he was the only one for the prince. It was time to get out the big guns (or apples)…he had a demigod to seduce!

Summary
Aphrodite’s mirror melts away, rejoining the ocean below, while she contemplates the brave little mortal. Very clearly inexperienced in life, but in regards to love, has the amount of fearlessness someone even millennia-old wishes they could have. Daring to practically demand a Divine Being to attend to his wishes? Terribly courageous, indeed! Any other deity would have cursed him and his entire bloodline for such audacity. However, luckily for him, Aphrodite only revels in such prominent showcases of passion.
Yes, yes. She will most definitely stick with him through the years. His natural beauty alone will attract others like mice to cheese. Further cultivating his looks will be nothing short of a masterpiece of hers; she’s certain he will develop into one of her best works, and the depictions made in his honour will be admired for centuries to come!
Doubtless, Telemachus has much to live up to.
Join Aphrodite as she indulges in her favourite play: Toxic Masculinity and its Effect on Love.

Summary
Everyone had been begging the king for answers. They had suspected he had something to do with Poseidon’s anger. Everyone in the kingdom seemed to suspect him of angering the gods. That was the only thing that explained the constant storms that plundered their islands, or the sudden droughts that arrived days later.
Odysseus had remained silent through it all. He neither confirmed nor denied the rumours. Just let them spread like a disease through the kingdom, causing outrage from the civilians who were affected by the god’s wrath.
“We both changed for the worst,” the king replied. “We had different circumstances that brought that change, some more noble than others, but we both went through it. Now, we are both trying to heal. To escape the man we turned into. To find the comfort we once had. To earn a place next to our loved ones.”
Antinous scoffed. There were no similarities between the two. Yet when the king spoke in that solemn tone, filled with guilt and grief he almost believed it.

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.

Summary
Antinous thought he’d escaped it, no one would be able to trace who he was, what he was, back to the man that he is. Antinous had laughed in the very face of his destiny and had shaped his own path.
Telemachus thought he’d overcome it, his own self was an identity no one would ever be able to take away from him. Telemachus had unraveled the tapestry Fate had woven and started anew.
— — — —
Antinous feels the boat dip beneath him and hears the waves crashing, a bird croaks. Telemachus lets out another whimper behind him. Antinous doesn’t see why he’s so upset, at least Telemachus isn’t bound like he is. Pampered brat. His own binds feel as if they’re tightening with every passing second and the pounding in his head has only lessened to a dull throb. The bite on his neck still stings.The pirate captain’s eyes flash with wicked glee. “Welcome home, son.”
— — — —
It seems that Fate hasn’t taken their defiance lightly and demands retribution. Now, far from the lives they had fought so hard to keep, Telemachus and Antinous must prove their right to their own identities. And if they have to bite and spit their way to ensure they make it back home, then they will, all tongues and teeth. -

His father isn't perfect. He knows that. It should be enough that he's even here.
So, why isn't it?
(The characterization of ody and telemachus, especially telemachus, are more based on the Odyssey. The epic the musical tags are there because they still work and I can't tag. Like srsly dk how people make all those fun personalized tags)

Summary
Percy Jackson knew that he wasn't always the most aware of his surroundings but he's almost positive that he didn't originally fall asleep on this beach. Nor does he recognize the pretty boy standing over him wrapped in his finest bedsheet. Once the boy introduces himself, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that this Telemachus, prince of Ithaca was THE Telemachus, prince of Ithaca.
Surrounded by blood hungry suitors and stripped of the comfort of his pants, Percy isn't sure how he's going to avoid offending the gods here. He didn't have the greatest track record of that back home. Telemachus seemed happy to have a friend in the palace and the queen looked at him with knowing eyes. What she knew, Percy wasn't sure but she definetly knew something. With Athena at Telemachus' side and Apollo following Percy around, this new land was shaping up to be very different than his own.

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
In short, Poseidon finds Telemachus' ship as he's sailing back to Ithaca from his diplomatic mission. After realizing it was Odysseus' son, he blinded Telemachus and drowned the ship, leaving only one survivor to tell the tale. To make sure Odysseus -if he were to ever return- would know that it was he who murdered the boy. A son for a son.
In retaliation, the Fates take pity on him and decide to send him back to when the suitors started showing up, to find a way to get rid of them once and for all, and to perhaps live to see the day his father comes back home.
In addition to this, the Fates have given him prophetic dreams, well, some are prophetic, others are of the past. Either way, he gets a new power beneath his belt and maybe he'll show the suitors just how hard a little Wolf's bite could be.

Summary
Odysseus, King of Ithaca, Warrior of Wit and Conqueror of Troy, has finally returned home. After decades of thinking only of his need to return home, he never stopped to imagine what returning home would actually mean. Penelope, Queen of Ithaca, Silent Ruler and Keeper of the Throne, finally has her husband back. But her happiness can't blind her from the cracks in her husband's brave exterior, nor does it mend the cracks in her own. Telemachus, Prince of Ithaca, Devout of Ithaca and Protector of the Throne, can finally put a face to the name that had been spoken to him for decades. All he has ever wanted was his family under one roof, but he never imagined he would have to be the one to pull them closer to each other again.
With Ithaca falling into ruin and the palace stained with the crimes of the suitors, the family stares down the final enemies ahead of them. And yet they are terribly unaware that the hardest battle to come will be with the monsters lurking deep within them all. But whose demons will be the ones to break the family first?
OR - everyone has trauma, a family who loves together breaks together and maybe will manage to put the pieces back together as well
