Summary
Telemachus never expected his life to become this bleak. After meeting the most wonderful and amazing boy (and being favored by the gods enough to become friends with him through some kind of magical dreams), everything had seemed so bright and hopeful…
But here he was now, a hole in his heart and soul, missing said boy like a limb, not knowing when (and if) they were ever gonna meet again. Telemachus never imagined that the pain of separation could feel like a burning iron pressed against his skin all the time. Dictating his life like some ghostly hand, with no way to escape the gaping emptiness.
Waiting was horrible.
But not forever.
Because a world (a time) away, his Sea-Boy is fighting tooth and nail to keep his promise of coming back. And maybe, just maybe, Percy Jackson is not the only one being able to mess with the Fates a bit… or the only one dreaming…

Summary
You will die for this.
The thought came out of nowhere. Telemachus had never had any reason to hate anyone before, and now a neglected part of his soul was finally rearing its head. You will die for this, it hissed again, teeth bared.
The sudden viciousness within him was exhilarating, a rush unlike anything he’d felt back in Ithaca. Something new came to life inside his chest, something clawed and cruel and monstrous.
I will kill you for this.
---
Or, where Antinous is king of Trojan-allied Thrace and kidnaps Telemachus to settle a grudge he's never forgiven, keeping him captive with other Greek prisoners long after the war has ended. Somewhere far across the ocean, Odysseus is released from Calypso's island six years early.

Summary
The council have their eyes on Ithaca's throne, but the looming chance of Prince Telemachus presenting nips at their heels. Why allow a dead man's son to rule their homeland when one of their own blood could be the new king?
Telemachus faces the reality that of the three paths ahead, it is in the god's hands which one they thrust him down. Despite everything, he wishes for a love like his parent's, and a story grand enough to be of legends. And Penelope throughout it seeks to prepare him to win with whichever blessing he receives. This was the house built by his father and her husband, and they will not give up their home easily as they buy time.
Antinous has admired Penelope from afar for years, and now is his chance. As suitors from outside of Ithaca crowd the halls and the Queen delays her choice, risking everything in his eyes for a dead man, bitterness begins to rise up. But he sees an opportunity with the seemingly malleable and unpresented Prince in keeping Ithaca ruled by a Ithacan King, preferably himself.

Telemachus doesn't understand why he has been imprisoned for over a year.

No, Antinous is much more interested in using Telemachus for his own benefit...in more ways than one.

Summary
“You were not made to love, child. You were made to burn. And rise.”
Troy is ash. The gods are quiet. And Themistra—daughter of a captured priestess—is left with nothing but a curse and a voice that is no longer hers.
Bound to speak only truths and riddles the gods slip into her mouth, Themistra is the ruins of a fallen city, a living omen, never a girl. She does not seek safety. She does not seek hope.
But then she is taken to Ithaca, where Odysseus has not returned, and his wife and son bear the weight of a kingdom coming undone. There, amidst the feasting suitors, Themistra finds Telemachus: storm-eyed, stubborn, and lonelier than he dares to admit.
She means to leave. She always does.
But the gods are not idle, and neither is fate. Something in her, something scorched and starved, begins to stir. In a world where women are offerings and omens, Themistra must decide whether she will be vessel, victim, or something new entirely.

Summary
“Hello, Mother,” Telemachus calls out to her.
He’s glad to see some of the exhaustion weighing down on her evaporate from her shoulders as he moves to stand next to her on the balcony. As Telemachus rests his elbows on the ledge and gazes down unto the city below, he hopes his presence could bring his mother at least some degree of comfort.
He wants her to know she's not alone in this.
And he'll show her in all the little ways that matter.
Telemachus watches the little specks of Ithacans bustle about in the marketplace. He watches the women run about— many performing what would normally be the men’s duties.
“Telemachus.” He jolts out of his train of thought as his mother places a hand on his arm. “You are making that face again. The one that screams, 'I need to talk to you.'” She clicks her tongue.
“What? I make no such face,” but even as he says this, he feels his voice strain to keep its neutrality, and he knows it’s a hopeless cause. “…Ah. Am I really that obvious?”
His mother laughs.
(Or: Telemachus’ upbringing, and the consequences that follow prior to Circe and Aeaea.)

Summary
Telemachus was beginning to believe finding love would be much harder than he had originally thought, but when the most handsome man he has ever seen named Theocrites walks into his life, and into his home, he believes he has found love. Things become a little odd, random, dot like scars appearing and disappearing, the waves barely moving when he is around, and his insistence that Telemachus doesn't take the throne, but that's okay, right?
AKA: Poseidon won't let Odysseus get away with all that he has done, so he shows Odysseus that taking a son isn't hard to do.

Summary
His shoulders crack as he stretches, face twisting at the sound. It's too early, he laments to nobody in particular. Too early to be up, too early to be able to get ready, and too early for his husband to partake in his newest hobby.
On the other hand; it smells amazing.

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
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
