    Summary

    Sir Gawain visits Hautdesert and proposes a game of his own, where he shall act as the prey for the hunt. If he is caught, he is at the Lord's mercy, and if he is not, the Lord is at his. Of course, he wants to get caught.
    Inspired by the original poem, but compatible with the 2021 film. Imagine the cast as you please - I certainly wouldn't mind someone picturing Dev Patel!

    Summary

    When Gawain of Orkney was fourteen years old, he sat his younger brothers down in a row like little ducks and imposed on them all his worldly wisdom. There were three brothers, then, and no sisters: Agravaine, a spiteful youth of twelve; Gaheris, ten and desperate to grow; Gareth, the youngest at seven, precocious and precious.
    The wisdom of Gawain of Orkney ran as follows:
    1. Never forget your family.
    2. Never speak your mind.
    3. Never disobey Father.
    Nearly one year later, the third point was amended:
    3. If you kill a man, kill his sons as well.

    Summary

    Percival was, by nature and by choice, kind, brave and unselfish, and while some considered him stupid, it was more naivety and a disposition to think the best of people, even those who didn’t deserve it.

    But if he did have a fatal flaw in his character, it was this: he loved all beautiful things.

    Summary

    Summary

    In the eyes of my father, I had always been a disappointment, a snag in his plans, an embarrassment that could never live up to the name of Menoitius. Peleus, on the other hand, had always been kind to me, but even he had never seen me as anything more than Achilles' friend, the exile he'd taken in out of mercy.

    To Chiron, though, I was always Patroclus.

As he falls deeper into a life of crime, brothels - and noodle broth - he thinks he might slowly go insane.

    Summary

    Patroclus met Achilles’ eyes. He was standing across the room, arms crossed over his chest, hair bound in a leather thong at the nap of his neck. A few strands fell in front of his eyes, though it did not look careless, like Patroclus’ hair did most days.
    Achilles’ eyes scoured over him and Patroclus sat perfectly still, awaiting his verdict, like he was judge and executioner at once.

    “What?” Achilles finally said, making another face. There was the disappointment, flashing sharply across his cherub features. Patroclus did not know Achilles’ expressions well, but he could pinpoint disappointment on anyone. He’d seen it on too many faces. “He doesn’t seem like anything special to me.” His tone was dismissive, a knife right to the gut...
