    Summary

    Achilles gives the boy a careful look-over. He doesn’t look like a desperado—too young, perhaps, for that— and he’s no peddler either; he's got no wares to sell. His shirt and his leather chaps would have once been of good make though they’re now worn and dusty, and the silver spurs on his boots mark him as anything but a laboring man. Whoever he is, he must have been well off… at some point.

    “What’s your name, son?” Peleus asks, a friendly yet cautious smile on his lips. Everyone around these parts has learned not to be too trusting of strangers.

    “Patroclus, sir.”

    “And what’s your father’s name, Patroclus?”

    Patroclus’ jaw clenches. “I ain’t got none, sir.” 

    Or: the one where Achilles is the wealthy ranch-owner's son, and Patroclus the enigmatic ranch hand with secrets to keep.

    Summary

    Dark, triumphant thoughts danced in Circe’s mind as she put one hand up to Odysseus’ chest. She pressed forward, prepared to give him one final shove over into his final resting place, and -

    Her hand touched something… soft.

    Circe blinked.

    Summary

    It’s over.
    But his heart still pounds. His senses still pull him in every direction. His thoughts still feel as if he has to draw them in from a long distance for them to even register.
    It doesn’t feel over.

     

    ~or~

    The King of Ithaca returned tonight. His mind is a scrambled mess. His family tries to pick up the pieces for him.

    Summary

    So, Poseidon would admit he was lost.

    Odysseus had tricked him. Again. Despite the way the man had been all but trapped in Poseidon’s domain, Athena’s precious ‘Warrior of the Mind’ had not yet run out of luck and Poseidon was suffering for it. The coward refused to extend proper mercy, didn’t stand like a hero, and now used trickery to run from an honorable death. False righteousness, not even finishing the job.

    Yet Poseidon had chased him down, following him into the cave Odysseus’s ship had sailed into. Or, the cave he thought Odysseus’s ship had sailed into.

    He wasn’t sure anymore. This was most certainly not Greece anymore.

    AKA

    EPIC: The Musical's Poseidon lands in the PJO verse and decides that if the local Poseidon is not going to raise his son, then he's going to do it. Percy is just happy to have a dad that wants to take him to drown ferries of tourists.

    Summary

    Poseidon keeps getting offerings from Percy’s baby sister. He doesn’t quite know how to feel about this small child vying for his attention…At the very least he would keep Zeus from blowing up whenever her prayers interrupted council meetings.

    Or

    Rick Riordan gave us Estelle Blofis and I am thrilled. She's going to get Poseidon to attend family events even if every god on Olympus kills her.
