  1. Summary

    A collection of partially connected one-shots about Athene/Odysseus orbiting in the space between Myth, Lore and Epic the Musical.
    Named for the fact that in the good old times I would have absolutely been asked to drink Hemlock at the next possible opportunity.

  2. Summary

    A⬩ta⬩na 𐀀𐀲𐀙

    "Sing to me, O Muse, sing of the time the high bronze screamed. Sing of the day that Wisdom herself bled red. Tell of the Great Father, whose mind became the storm because he could no longer hold the heart of his daughter. Sing of the goddess who fell and the man of Ithaka who stood upon the shore of ruin, reaching out to catch her."

    OR: The Odyssey ends with a thunderbolt hurled at goddess bright-eyed Athene’s feet and a hurried peace. Most of the rest of the Epic Cycle is lost to us in history. What if this thunderbolt were not the end of the story but just another beginning?

    This is an original retelling of the aftermath of the Odyssey, grounded in Bronze Age historical and mythological realism.

Odysseus struggles to let Penelope out of his sight, Penelope has trauma responses to his control issues and Athena is protective of them both but primarily of Penelope because she's avoiding Ody.

    Summary

    Athena is a goddess of wisdom. Why, then, does she make a choice so foolish as to go against her father in such a way? It is, to put simply, the antithesis of her very being. For what was being the wisest worth if the wisest put herself in such a position?

    Summary

    Odysseus x Penelope x Athena fic. Because there's not enough OdyPenAth in this fandom.

    Rated Explicit for graphic sexual content. This is going to have pornographic, self indulgent, smut. Minors DNI

    Actual summary: Athena is banished from Olympus after getting Odysseus off the isle of Calypso. Odysseus and Penelope have both been in love with her since before the war, and though her abandonment soured some of those feelings, her sacrifice rekindles them. With Athena banished with nowhere to go, she ends up staying on Ithaca. What happens when Odysseus and Penelope decide to try and make a move?

    Summary

    In the ninth year of the Trojan War, Odysseus and Diomedes are sent on a mission behind enemy lines to infiltrate the Trojans forces. There they would find a man who would give them information in exchange for his life.

    But this story follows a slightly different path.

    Instead of finding information, they find someone else vastly more interesting.
