Summary
Nax and Telemachus find a baby in a golden basket, floating on the ocean. The infant is all alone, so they bring her back to the palace and decide to raise her as their own. They quickly discover that the child is no mere mortal but a demigod. Not only that, but a daughter of Zeus himself. Shenanigans ensue as Tele and Nax navigate life as new parents to a rambunctious little one, whose tantrums can cause thunder storms.
Ody and Pen love being grandparents. Hermes is a terrible influence/gay uncle. Athena must admit, the babe is very cute and Nax and Tele clearly need help. #Aunty Athena is tired.
Self-indulgent TeleNax sequel to my other fic The Last Trojan. Less plot more fluff.Series

Summary
Odysseus had been home for months, and yet he was still a long way from feeling like he was truly back. How could he when he was so busy trying to make everything normal that he didn’t have time to take actual steps like getting closer to his son. Of course, it wasn’t like he didn’t try. It just so happened that Athena always got there first. She was right there with *his* son, *his* boy, always keeping him busy so Odysseus didn’t even have a chance to be the father he never was.
So, of course, one day he decided that enough was enough and he was going to be with his son whether Athena liked it or not. And because of that, he ended up discovering two things.
One, Athena was even closer to his son than he feared.
And two, he and his boy had more in common than either of them had known. -

Summary
Penelope’s face looms into the mirror beside his. She stretches to rest her chin on his shoulder, and wraps her arms around him. Their eyes meet in the mirror. “How long have I prayed for this night,” she says softly, and squeezes her arms around his bare waist. “To have you in my arms. Odysseus.”
“I took so long. Penelope, I–” He doesn’t have the words. There are not enough, and nothing strong enough, and– and his tongue is tied in ribbons, as tattered as the rest of him.
“Hush, love.”
aka Odysseus returns home, reunites with his love, gets a bath, and starts to grieve

Summary
He's about to head off when Odysseus stops him with a thank you. Hermes stills, tilting his head slightly, "Don't thank me friend, I'm not the one who fought for you," he offers, bemused; he'd have gone directly to the power behind the throne.
Hera might not like Zeus' bastard children, but she does generally hear them out before trying to smite them.
These days."Then who..?" Odysseus murmurs, and Hermes' heart breaks, just a little. He truly can't imagine that anyone would fight for him. And why would he? From what Hermes' heard through the grapevine, last he knew, Athena was no longer his mentor, let alone his friend.
Hermes sighs, internally, lest his great-grandson get the wrong idea, before dropping down to sit on the raft with Odysseus.
Looks like he's really doing this, then.Or: What else was Hermes meant to do? Not invite himself along to the end of a twenty year journey?
Please, it's practically his job! -

Summary
“How long were you there?” A long pause. Odysseus still wide eyed, staring blankly in front of him. As the silence grew, Telemachus almost asked again before a whisper cut through the silence. “7 years.”
When Odysseus gets home, he struggles with what has happened to him. Particularly with what she did. When he gets overwhelmed by his memories, he breaks down and tells his family just what he went through to get home to them. What he endured, and in turn learns how he got off the forsaken island in the first place. Just who exactly helped him and finds comfort in the fact that his family will always be there to catch him when he feels like falling into the dark pit he is sure he deserves to be in.
Athena is sure that after she tells them just what she did to help Odysseus they will reject her as their patron. She clearly wasn't strong enough so how could they ever want her as their goddess. She hopes they will at least let her train Telemachus. Maybe then she will redeem herself and be able to sleep at night.
This is a story of found family, love, acceptance, and healing.

Summary
Standing next to 108 suitors, Meletios couldn’t help but feel…inadequate. He was younger compared to all the other men, and in all honesty, wasn’t quite sure why he was even there. Then he catches the eyes of the prince, Telemachus.
Or
I feel bad that telecommunications gets constantly bullied by the suitors so made a guy who was nice to him. Does anyone else make epic ocs?? I’m not sure

Summary
So when Tele invited him for a stargazing trip, he was undeniably shocked. Stargazing? Like teenagers? They were married, it wasn't much needed. Love wasn't anything more than a courting gift and a marriage, according to Neo's standards. And by standards, he meant a bar that was practically in hell.
But Tele grabbed his hand and gave him no chance of denying his offer.

Summary
“Have you been mumbling to yourself again? About those scars?”
“Oh come on, Tele, I’m just…” he sighed, knowing he won’t be able to just go ‘shut up’ this time, an easy copout he exploited whenever his lover pointed out his destructive behaviors, “...yeah. Maybe a little.”

Or,
Neo is insecure about his scars and Tele confronts him about it.

That would be his last hope. To spare a minute with those who were so dreadfully distant from him, whether it be because of death or time, and say everything he needed to say. Maybe then, he could find peace– peace from the war in his mind that prevailed in his palace.
What if such a hope could be granted?
meanwhile, despite their reconciliation, athena still holds onto her guilt for how odysseus turned out.
a little too much.Series
