    Summary

    It is the twenty first century and Telemachus is the son of one of the most influential politicians in the area, Odysseus. He is also being held hostage by the most powerful crime lord in the area, Antinous. Telemachus is forced to work for a crime syndicate that trains orphans into assassins and thieves. Telemachus doesn't understand why he has been imprisoned for over a year. However, when Antinous begins to reveal his schemes, Telemachus realizes that Antinous doesn't just want him as a bargaining chip. No, Antinous is much more interested in using Telemachus for his own benefit...in more ways than one.

    Summary

    Telemachus spent years with the suitors, only being desired because of sick satisfaction that came from using the son of the queen. He thought that once they had all died, he could move on.
    Then Diomedes came to visit.
    And the man decided that he was a close enough substitute for his other parent.

    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

    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

    *IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE LIFE AND CRIMES OF ODYSSEUS LAERTIDES THIS FIC WILL MAKE NO SENSE PLEASE READ THAT ONE FIRST*

    *featuring elfstar!!*

    ---------

    There's a lot we didn't get into in Crimes. Things left unsaid, things cut for the sake of time, plotlines that weren't explored in the way they deserved, characters who should have had more development. There's a lot we missed out on.

    All of that is here.

    Starring Telemachus, Astyanax, and Odysseus, of course, as well as a few never-before-seen (at least in Crimes) POVs: Antinous, Peristratus, Lysander, Eurylochus, and Penelope.

    ---------

    Thank you to everyone that has so far been on this journey with me. It's time for another adventure!

    Summary

    A canon-aligned story in which Telemachus is a 'she' and must cope with the accompanying implications. Rather than feeling hopeful like her mother, Telemachus is unable to cope with the king's absence and the effects in has on her life. Just some drabbles I thought of at 2 a.m.

    Structured as little snippets or "diary entries".

    Summary

    In a world where the gods dominate, ruling every aspect of every mortal's life, there is Telemachus, son of the famed victors Odysseus and Penelope Laerdites. He wasn't strong and ruthless like his father, or smart and cunning like his mother, which in this world?

    That was a no.

    However, Odysseus has been missing for the past fifteen years of his life, he's sixteen now, and it's a seemingly ordinary day. Well, as ordinary as one can get when its a fight for your life once you get Reaped.

    He gets Reaped and meets Peisistratus Pylian, the male tribute from District 11. He feels flustered around him, though he shouldn't feel that way for an enemy. But the two become friends, maybe something more.

    But this is the God Games.

    And you cannot trust anyone.

    ***
    A/N: All rights to the characters go to Jorge Rivera-Herrans, Rick Riordan, and Suzanne Collins. This is God Games but Hunger Games style, all mentions of Odysseus' crew and/or characters from before the Ithaca Saga participate in Odysseus's games, aka the 59th God Games. Penelope competes the year after.

    Summary

    “Why should I hate you?”

    Her question lacked the innocence a child should have. In fact, the way she spoke very maturely only brought a stab of guilt into his heart. She shouldn’t have to ask that question. She shouldn’t have to feel like she was undeserving of love. And yet, she was asking why she should hate him? After all the ways he had failed her?

    “Because I’m a monster,” he replied.

    The girl got up from the sand in response. Closing the distance, she walked until she was in front of him. The moon poured its silver light onto her, making her glow in an ethereal way like his Penelope. She knelt on her knees and looked up at him. Her eyes shone with a strong resolve.

    “You’re not a monster. You’re my father.”

    Summary

    Telémaco todos los días acompaña a su madre a visitar y contemplar un tapiz tejido por ella misma. Una representación de la hermosa familia que eran antes de que Odiseo tuviera que dejar su nación y familia para irse a Troya. Telémaco observa cómo su madre jamás pierde el brillo y la esperanza en sus ojos.
    -Él va a volver- dice la reina.
    Su hijo jamás se atrevería a contradecirle, pero el reino está inestable, un hombre (acompañado de otros 107) ha tocado su puerta y durante 19 años Telémaco no ha podido conocer a su papá.
    ---
    -..habrán de retirarse inmediatamente- dijo el Príncipe de Ítaca a todos los pretendientes de su madre.
    Los rumores eran ciertos. Telémaco poseía el mismo atractivo de su padre: sus rasgos, porte y la forma en la que te intimidaba, la única diferencia eran sus orejas puntiagudas, como los de una ninfa, y su altura.
    -Oh, Príncipe- dijo el cabecilla de los pretendientes para llamar su atención - Ha de saber que está infringiendo con las normas de la hospitalidad, pero puedo aguantar un poco mi hambre sólo para que usted tenga la certeza de que no venimos con intenciones ofensivas.
    Antiino se dispuesto a cumplir con la tarea encomendada por su padre.

    Summary

    Being related to the Olympians was a struggle. Especially when a good chunk of them hated your father. And ESPECIALLY when Hermes loved playing pranks on your father... and you. Now, Telemachus isn't quite sure where he is, but he'd be lying if he said it wasn't confusing. And he'd also be lying if he said he wasn't interested in the new people around him.

    (OR: Hermes takes Telemachus hundreds of years in the future for the fun of it. He ends up in a war and with a gay lover.)

    Summary

    The little 13 year old princess was just.. okay. Antinous had thought since the day he met her. she was attractive, but not as much as her mother. so he took no particular interest in her.

    not until she made a public announcement that she was going from princess to prince.

    Antinous had always considered himself a heterosexual. he had never considered pederasty.

    but.

    in a half drunk state, multiple glasses deep into only the beginning hours of the night, he gives a wolf whistle when he sees the so-called Prince,

    "pour me another drink, won't you, baby?"

     

    This fic is finished! (for now) I’ll probably come back to this when i get more ideas for chapters :P

    Summary

    Telemachus falls ill, for the first time since his father returned. That’s fine, he’ll just isolate himself, as he always does when he’s sick. Why should it be any different when his father’s home?
    …even though deep down, part of him does really want his dad…

    Odysseus doesn’t quite know how to handle it- but damn if he’s not going to try to shower his stubborn boy with care.

    Summary

    Growing up, Telemachus couldn't wait for two things. The first was his father coming home. He'd dreamt how he'd greet him, daydreaming about how his father would hug him and tell him how proud he was of Telemachus. The second was presenting as an alpha. How could he not with two amazing alpha parents like Odysseus and Penelope? He was told by so many that he would grow up to be an amazing warrior, like his parents; that he would be an amazing ruler, like his parents; that he would be an amazing alpha, like his parents.

    And then, he turned ten and two terrible things happened. His father never returned home and Telemachus presented as an omega. His training halted and he wasn't eligible to take the throne anymore, all of his dreams gone up in smoke like they’d never mattered to begin with.

    And now, 108 suitors infest their halls, vying for his hand. Telemachus isn’t strong or brave like his parents. Honestly, he isn’t much of anything. But, they can’t stall for much longer, and Telemachus knows that he will have to stand tall and strong to survive the upcoming storm. He’s just not sure he won’t break under the pressure.

    Summary

    Odysseus never makes it home. Antinous had wanted to posses the prince for years now. The boy was of age, and so cute and innocent. Antinous wanted to ruin him, to have him as his own. When he riles up the other suitors to take over the palace he claims Telemachus as his own. What proceeds is the nightmare that Telemachus must now live through as the unwilling pet of the strongest suitor.

    Summary

    Anton Vale had been doom-scrolling TikTok when he came across the video. It was a cover of a new song that had apparently been trending recently with sad fan edits from their favorite fandoms. Nothing new, but for some reason this cover strung a chord within Anton's heart. It was hauntingly beautiful.

    "It's an endless night, it's a starless sky
    It's a hell that I call home (Hell that I call home)
    It's a long goodbye on the other side (Ooh)
    Of the only life I know (Ooh)"

    Summary

    __________»‘ Antinous has never wanted to marry the Queen. He never even wanted to be with an actual woman.
    But for his father, that was not how the man of the house should be, even if the man Antinous chose were to be an Omega; that is why he sent him to the palace. That is why he sent Antinous to marry the Queen.

    Telemachus never had a friend. Only his dog and mother. He longed for someone to share stories with, someone for him to share food with.

    Antinous was a pain in the ass, yes. But Telemachus was getting desperate! That’s why he was having those dreams, right?!

    …Right…? ’«__________
