    Summary

    Telemachus, son of the legendary Odysseus, has spent his life in the shadow of a myth, raised by a mother who tried to protect him from the harsh truths of war. But as he grows, he finds himself torn between the weight of his father's legacy and the forbidden love, doomed by prophecy. Battling suitors, his own desires, and the crushing pressure to be a hero, Telemachus must learn that true strength isn’t just in the sword, but in the heart.

    This is a story of love, destiny, and a boy fighting to forge his own legend—of a wolf who dared to challenge the sun.

    Summary

    After being resurrected by his grandfather, Apollo, Astyanax was raised mainly on Olympus with one purpose: to be a weapon. But after being taken in by the royal family in Ithaca, their strange sense of ‘normal mortal family’ complicates things. The blood on his hands is something he can’t lose, all he can choose is whose. But can he choose not to stain his hands with theirs?

    Summary

    Telemachus clenches his hands at his side and tries to take deep breaths, suddenly remembering that he does need to breathe. He can still feel them; their grips. He always does. Lingering like ghosts and haunting him like phantoms. He feels them even when he sleeps.

    The breaths come as pants, stilted and he’s sure that none of it is going in his lungs. Or perhaps he’s breathing too fast? He can see the way his chest heaves. It’s too fast— or he’s in slow motion… he can’t think. Properly. Or at all. There a hand in his hair, pulling him back and—

    Telemachus leaps away from the wall, looking wildly around the room. It felt real. Too real. Everything feels too real now. He thought that the realness would be a comfort. But it isn’t. It’s too much. It’s always too much and there’s laughter that’s real in his ears, hands on his waist, lips against his skin, and a cock in his—

    He’s throwing open the door and running through the halls, the voices of the two guards calling out after him. Telemachus doesn’t heed them. His bare feet slap against the tiles as he runs.

    Summary

    Telemachus' father Odysseus vanished when his plane went down over the Appalachian mountains seven years ago, and no one has seen him since. Unfortunately, this means his story is like catnip to every conspiracy theorist in a thousand mile radius. Telemachus is just trying to keep these losers from re-traumatizing his mom- and himself, to be perfectly honest- but some of them are getting increasingly persistent. One in particular is adamant about getting Telemachus alone for an interview. At least, Telemachus really hopes it's just for an interview. He'd rather be focusing on other things...like the massive crush he's been nurturing for his childhood best friend.

    Summary

    Troy’s war is over, king Odysseus is coming home after ten long years. Or that was supposed to happen. Odysseus of Ithaca is nowhere to be seen, his wife and son still waiting.

    In the air a lingering question, unspoken by the lips of the living, but asked by their hearts, witnesses of life still beating:

     


    When does a man become a monster?

     

    Telemachus is not sure of the answer himself, but unknowingly, he’ll live an odyssey of his own, next to the last person on earth he imagined. An old friend, or enemy should say? Dunno, it’s hard to categorize a man who’s actively trying to marry your mother.

    Sometimes, a little change of fate, is all the withered need to bloom at the first signs of Spring.

    Summary

    Antinous turned around and, by some curse, saw Telemachus laying on the stone. After a moment Antinous moved towards the body. It was not as mangled as he hopped, but anything was better than nothing. The boy was lying on his stomach, eyes closed and mouth open. Antinous crouched down next to him to assess the damage. There was blood on his chiton, but not much. It didn’t have time to soak in yet. There was blood running down his face too, likely a head injury. It was a nice colour against the boy’s pale skin.

    He turned Telemachus to face him. He brushed his bangs out of his face. The moonlight shone over those soft, feminine features Antinous had always mocked the prince for. Plump cheeks, full lips, and a straight nose just like his mother. The blood he had noticed before shimmered a deep crimson as it poured from the prince’s eyes. Soft, round eyes that always had a hint of curiosity in them.

    Eyes that were now gone.

    Summary

    Telemachus had long grown accustomed to life without a father. He had learned to navigate the jeers and constant harassment of the suitors, until even his own home, the grand palace that should have been his sanctuary, felt like a prison. In the absence of authority, he'd gotten used to his own freedom, answering to no one. But all of that begins to unravel when his father returns ..not alone, but accompanied by a god.

    Summary

    The bow is always easy to string, Telemachus finds. It is easy to pull back, to shoot. It always lands in the middle of the target. His mother was not there to congratulate him anymore.

     

    There is silence in the castle now. The suitors, bitter, had left, wanting to find a wife. The servants have withered. The animals had shied away from the new King, bewildered by the absence of his mother with her clever, constantly moving hands, and the warmth she had taken down to Hades with her. The guards and army shy away from Telemachus, with his cruel face and awkward hands.

     

    Telemachus finds no pleasure in seeing the empty halls

     

    or

     

    telemachus's life as a king after his parents die.

    read orphan child for context, though it's not required.

    Summary

    Telemachus gets drunk at a party. Really, really drunk. Odysseus tries to control himself, tries to be a good father and a good person, but when he goes to check on his unconscious son after everyone leaves, he can’t help himself. Penelope’s gone to visit Ctimine, he’s backed up and could really use the relief, and it’s not like Telemachus will know; his son just looks so much like his mother, just one night wouldn’t hurt…

    (Apologies to the three people who subscribed before I showed my true colors. It will not get better.)

    Summary

    "Telemachus, stay, please." Peisistratus begged quietly, grabbing the Ithacan's hand.

    Telemachus did his best to tug away, but to no avail. "I must, my fiancé--"

    "Forget him! I could be a better husband, I could treat you with the respect you deserve!" Peisistratus protested, pulling the other prince close to his chest. "Please..."

    Telemachus took a breath. It felt wrong, but so right... and besides, Peisistratus was of royal blood... Antinous was not. "Okay." He responded. "I'll stay."
