My friend started writing this AU where the horse ploy is seen through, Odysseus is captured by the trojans and becomes Cassandra’s servant.

(yes until i model or find a sims modder who has already modeled proper armor the boys are in t-shirts and shorts)
featuring my agamemnon design from Tinysseus as L. Ajax, who Cassandra killed for what she predicted he would have done to her had the Acheans won.

Okay TLT Big Resurrection Event officially starts tomorrow so it's time to stop vague-blogging about my new, intensely niche AU, and post a snippet:
Sing, Goddess, of the devotion* of sharp-edged Camilla Whose unwavering fealty* determined her path Through the stars, across battlefields, and into the depths of The River. Grant us passage through this tale, from end to beginning. Though we are mere passengers on the tide of the journey And helpless to change our heroes’ fates Let us witness, O Goddess, the tale once again.
*Translators note: In House “devotion,” is selfless affection or dedication to a principle or individual, but often has a sense of personal love and care. *Translators note: Approximate translation of the House word fealty, a noun broadly translated as allegiance or loyalty, but used primarily in reference to the formal pact between Necromancer and Cavalier. (Margin note in library copy: Cross-checked original text, “devotion” appears before “fealty” chronologically there as well. Interesting implications regarding conflict between Camilla’s duty as a friend vs. a cavalier.)

someone should write a fanfic about Achilles getting killed and reincarnated into modern world with his memory and big ego. But now in this world, he is the son who is casted away, Patroclus is the son of very important figure, and Patroclus takes Achilles as a body guard or assistance. For the first time in his life, Achilles learns to be a follower. What’s worse, Patroclus doesn’t seem to remember him at all.

you're a walking disaster and yet-
Tumblr media
—I'll follow in your wake.
Patrochilles | 148k | Modern AU | Ch. 23/23
Summary:
"You'll meet my son, Achilles, soon," Mr Pelides told Patroclus on their drive there. "You two will get along just fine. He's as wild as they come, though." The indulgent pride with which he said the words made them sound almost like a compliment. "Don’t let him talk you into anything."
Patroclus blushed as he swore, with strong conviction, that he would absolutely not do that. No sir.
He knows better than that.
Or: Achilles is a threat and a menace. As they grow up together, Patroclus falls for him anyway.
Read the complete work on AO3!

tw for descriptions of zombies, death, slight gore and body decay (decomposition)
The Odyssey but Odysseus died at Troy. Yet his drive to see his wife and son was strong enough for him to lift his rotting limbs. He stumbles around - a corpse should not move. He has only one goal in mind: Ithaca, Penelope, Telemachus. His body is weak and frail, it constantly collapses and fails him. His body wants to return to the earth. He should be in the ground right now, his body grass and moss. But his mind lives, and he lifts his body off the ground no matter how long it takes him. His mind and body are divided, both long for their own goals. He makes no sound but a whisper: "Ithaca. Penelope. Telemachus." He doesn't remember where his home is. But he keeps whispering. People hear him. He can't talk, can't think anything except those three. They will ask him, "Who are you?". He can only give them a glassy stare, haunted and utterly wrong. It's not natural. He only murmurs "Ithaca. Penelope. Telemachus." and glances away, before dragging himself away. He has no name, at least not one he can remember. His mind consists only of those three thoughts. They think him a mad man. No one recognizes him as the king of Ithaca, his face sunken and destroyed. Even if someone did recognize him, well - Odysseus died at Troy, after all. They try to capture him, but no one dares approach that walking mass of rot and blood. They try to kill him. Arrows tear through the remaining muscle. Spear tips poke out of his ribs. He will collapse on the ground, they will think he died. But it's only his body. They cannot kill what's already dead. So he will push himself up - moments, hours, days or weeks later. And he stumbles on. And he whispers. He can't hear or register any words that people speak. He will only turn his head when he hears someone say Ithaca, Penelope, Telemachus. He follows those whispers. They get more frequent, until everyone around him is saying those three words sacred to him. Until his thoughts materialize before him.
Okay so now I have two endings:
1. A bit of his mind gives away when he reaches Ithaca, when he kisses her shores. Another fragment is gone when he holds his son in his arms, when he kisses him. He sees the suitors, 108 men trying to get their hands on his wife. On his Penelope. It's enough to make him think straight, at least for a bit. He wants to kill them right then and there. But Telemachus stops him, he has to restrain him. Odysseus obeys. It's easy to put something so breakable and weak under control. But he only thinks of suitors' blood. And eventually, they shed it. Odysseus is like a beast, death itself casting doom upon anyone his sunken eyes land on. And finally, he sees Penelope. His mind gives way when he is in her arms again, when he kisses her. His mind has no thoughts anymore, he reached his goal. There's nothing to hold his body upright anymore. No goal to reach - well, except one. One he should've reached on the beaches of Troy, a decade ago. Death. He finally dies the next morning, going still in their olive bed.
2. He is slow. His body is weak, he trips everytime his toes touch the ground. He is slow, but it's okay. He doesn't have to stop, he has no physical needs to meet, except the one of his mind. Not his heart, that one has been dead for a while now. And he follows the words of others, echoes of his own whispers. And he reaches Ithaca, eventually. But the people are different. They wear different clothes, they speak a different language. No one says those three words. It should have been obvious, the way those names slowly faded as he went from city to city, land to land. He was slow, too slow. Penelope and Telemachus are gone now. They have been dead for who knows how long. But his mind's needs are not met, the drive is still there. So he wanders the lands, searching for something long gone - always whispering under his breath.
I'm very fond of both endings aughh, I'll need to write this down sometime.
Another version is where Odysseus' personality and mind have been slowly chipped away over the course of his journey until he became nothing but the embodient of his drive to see his wife and son. His body is forgotten, thin and torn. He is dead. Perhaps he is not. It's hard to tell at this point. When does a man die - is it when his heart stops beating and blood stops rushing in his veins, or when his mind is gone? (probably would get the first ending).

Iliad, book XXIV.
What if the gods had never sent Hermes to Priam to accompany him to the Achaean camp? What if he never went there in the end?
What if it was Andromache, who, alone, sneaked out of Troy and into the Myrdmidon camp to find a way to bring her husband's body home?

This is a class assignment that I chose to do on the Iliad because I am still obsessed. The speech bubbles might look a bit weird because I originally did this whole comic in French and then translated it. Hope you guys like it because I cried a lot internally writing this.

Group Project has been created
Patroclus has added Achilles, Odysseus, Menelaus, and Diomedes to Group Project.
Patroclus's name has been changed to Baby
Achilles's name has been changed to I'm sexy and I know it
Odysseus 's name has been changed to SmartAss
Diomedes's nickname has been changed to Fight me
Menelaus's nickname has been changed to Himbo
 
Baby: I'm starting to regret it.
I'm sexy and I know it: If you want, you can change your nickname.
Baby: Nope, I'm Baby and I know it.
Himbo: Did you just…did you just mention LMFAO?
Baby: Achilles' nickname is the fucking song name. I stated a fact.
SmartAss: Guys, this is ridiculous. It should be a science project group.
I'm sexy and I know it: do you want to change and become Gayleo?
SmartAss: Gayleo never existed.
I'm sexy and I know it: Speak for yourself. He is my guide and inspiration!!!
Fight me: Are you making gay jokes without me?!
I'm sexy and I know it: Never, bro!
SmartAss: guys, we should get organized for the project! The professor gave us carte blanche!
I'm sexy and I know it: we have time!
SmartAss: Three weeks!
I'm sexy and I know it: at worst you enter the professor's house and change your grades. It would not be the first time.
SmartAss: hth yu know?
I'm sexy and I know it: Gays know everything.
Baby: we saw you come out of Professor Nestor's window. You fell and rolled a few feet. Then you got up and pretended you were there for a walk.
SmartAss: You have no proof.
Himbo: I'm starting to think that maybe it was better to be in a group with my cousin.
 
6pm.
I'm sexy and I know it: so, I have a scientific headcanon…
SmartAss: Please say theory! You have a scientific theory!
I'm sexy and I know it: Anyway, I have a scientific headcanon. But I need Hector in a locked room and a gun.
Baby: Achilles, we will not use Russian roulette for our project.
I'm sexy and I know it: But it's for science! Probability theory! It's brainy.
Himbo: Still no. Let's use Paris.
Fight me: what if we put Paris and Hector in a room with only one gun? What would happen?
SmartAss: Bold of you assumes that Hector doesn't strangle his brother after five minutes.
Himbo: mood.
 
8pm
SmartAss: We need an idea!
Fight me: I think using Hector and Paris would solve our problems.
SmartAss: but it's illegal!
Fight me: and since when do you worry?
SmartAss: Since there might be evidence that can frame me, or too many witnesses. I have nothing against you guys, but I would kill you and hide your bodies so I don't end up in prison. No offense.
Himbo: We already knew that
Fight me: That's why Ajax hates you.
I'm sexy and I know it: doesn't Ajax hate him because Odysseus stole his job as captain of the rugby team?
Fight me: Also.
SmartAss: Some don't know how to lose.
Himbo: You weren't even on the team.
SmartAss: and now I'm captain. Your point?
Baby: Forget Hector and Paris. I want to study Odysseus.
I'm sexy and I know it: are you cheating on me for the dwarf?!
SmartAss: Hey!
Fight me: don't listen to him, bro. It is known that dwarves have something else that is very great.
Himbo: And how do you know?
Fight me: you'd like to know, huh?
 
8.45pm
SmartAss: studying the dysfunctional relationships of Ettore's family is not a bad idea...
Himbo: What changed your mind?
SmartAss: I went to take out the garbage…
I'm sexy and I know it: it's not nice to talk like that about Diomedes.
Fight me: Fuck you
I'm sexy and I know it: Baby already takes care of it.
Himbo: gross
I'm sexy and I know it: you're just jealous. You and Helen never like us.
Fight me:  I would kill them myself.
SmartAss: guys, focus. Social experiment. Relationships between brothers, and we use Hector and all his brothers.
Fight me: how many are there again? Twelve?
Himbo: now nineteen. Hecuba has just given birth.
Fight me: Nineteen?!
Baby: they should have stopped with the twins. It was enough. Hell, they should have stopped at Paris. They had to understand that it would only be worse later.
Himbo: but what job does Priam do? There are twenty-two people, two dogs, a cat, and Paris. How can he live in such a big house?
SmartAss: doesn't he work for the government?
Fight me: no government job pays this well!
Himbo: unless you're the president. 
I'm sexy and I know it: what if he is the head of the CIA?
Baby: Sure, and the head of the CIA came to this city to check out a high school and a very dangerous Blockbuster. Never mind that they sell DVDs of terrorists.
Fight me: But it would make sense because he has so many children. They are all future Spy Kids!
Himbo: if the fate of my country is in the hands of Paris, I will expatriate and change my name.
I'm sexy and I know it: Cassandra knows things. It's clearly spy training.
Fight me: Cassandra talks bullshit.
Himbo: You're only saying that because she told everyone that you had tea dressed as a fairytale princess with your six-year-old cousin.
Fight me: this has never happened! Cassandra is a liar!
Himbo: and where did the glitter in your hair come from?
Fight me: it wasn't glitter.
Himbo: And what was it?
Fight me: heroine
SmartAss: It was glitter.
SmartAss: Anyway, social experiment. We will observe Ettore and his family, thus describing their social dynamics.
Baby: Isn't that stalking?
SmartAss: no, it's science.
 
 
8am
I'm sexy and I know it: Outside school Cassandra came up to me and gave me a card with her family's schedule.
I'm sexy and I know it: she told me since you want to spy on us, better know when you will find us all.
I'm sexy and I know it: then she disappeared
Fight me: every time. Wtf.
Himbo: Am I the only one wondering how she knew or…
Baby: Dude, the fewer questions you ask, the better.
Fight me: this proves nothing! she just got lucky!
SmartAss: send nudes!!!
Fight me: I would love to do it but I'm almost at school.
SmartAss: No, idiot! No nudes. Dudes
SmartAss: Come help me! Ajax is chasing me! With a car!
Himbo: What did you do to him this time?
SmartAss: nothing!
Fight me: liar.
Fight me: give me a minute and I'll be with you.
 
8.30am
Fight me: RIP Odysseus
Fight me: he's not dead, but as soon as Ajax gets out of the hospital, he'll definitely kill him.
SmartAss: in my defense, he wanted to do me worse than send me to the hospital.
Himbo: Aren't you two supposed to be in class?
SmartAss: what part of Ajax wanted me dead wasn't clear to you?
Baby: How the hell you are alive? Ajax is twice your size.
SmartAss: If I told you, I'd have to kill you.
Baby: the alarming thing is that I never know when he's joking or serious.
Himbo: you guys scare me.
I'm sexy and I know it: you still have time to do the project with your cousin.
Himbo: better not
Himbo: I don't know if he would try to kill me, steal my girlfriend or sleep with my brother
Baby: i'm starting to think that it's not just Hector who has a dysfunctional family
Fight me: why don't I have sexy cousins who want to sleep with me?
I'm sexy and I know it: Thersites wants to fuck you.
Fight me: but he is not sexy!!!
Baby: If I have to go to therapy one day, I'll show these chats.
SmartAss: this should be a serious group chat...
I'm sexy and I know it: dude, did you see us?
I'm sexy and I know it: nobody here is normal. except Pat, but  he is perfect, so...
SmartAss: ...
SmartAss: we are doomed.
Fight me: prepare the copy of Nestore's house keys.
Fight me: you will need it
