    Summary

    It is the fourth year of The Trojan War when the Fates deem that certain Achaeans and Trojans should watch the future unfold and gain insight into how this war that they fight will end for them - they decide that the best way to go about it is to show a grand musical play of the greatest of the heroes present - Odysseus.

     

    (or, in the 4th year of the Trojan War, some of the men and women of the Iliad react to EPIC: The Musical)

    Summary

    “Odysseus.” Odysseus did not startle. He also did not greet Diomedes despite having known of his approach. “Odysseus?”

    Perhaps this was some sort of battle related trauma. Diomedes ended up sitting down besides Odysseus and let his shoulder bump against the sullen King. “Talk to me, friend.”

    “...About what?”

    “What’s going on? Polites is concerned, so are your men. Was it the blood? Or the men who fell? Rest assured, friend, none of yours fell today.”

    “Do you think King Sisyphus fights against his punishment? Do you think the Fates would allow him, if he did?”

    Flinching, Diomedes observed the change in Odysseus’ eyes. Instead of the colour of the sea, Odysseus’ eyes were taken over by a hue of red– only noticeable when observed in a certain angle but definitely present. Diomedes knew what caused a hue of red like that.

    Odysseus had been touched by Ares’ Rage.

    —---

    In which Odysseus is dropped back in time into the Trojan War and chooses to mess with everyone until it gets him killed or gets him back to Penelope. Others take notice.

    Or, Odysseus is soooo done.

    After six years of her ex-friend being trapped on an island with a lust-stricken nymph, Athena finally manages to answer his prayers. They figure it out.

    OR

    Athena and Odysseus decide that this timeline is fucked beyond repair and they should scrap it, go back in time to before Polyphemus, and try again.

    Summary

    “Enlighten me, Odysseus. What do you value most?” Patience was a waning thing in Zeus’ tone, the god leaning in close and as smothering as the humid front of a storm. A strong hand grasped Odysseus’ jaw, bringing in the king nose to nose to with a god who now stood to scale with the man atop the deck.

    The unblinking eyes of his crew and the electric gaze of a king upon him, nowhere to run and none to outwit. To persuade? Odysseus raised his chin in Zeus’ grasp, shrugging off his tattered tunic from his shoulder, “There are many roads to settle a debt owed, no?”

    The fingertips digging into his jaw slackened for but a moment, the gall of a mortal making Zeus briefly falter before he spoke, “Persuade me then.”

    Summary

    Odysseus of Ithaca had always been different. Relying more on intelligence then strength, cunning over pure power, he had always stood out. But, he never realized how much he stood out until he left the safety of his kingdom to fight in the war.

    Using his charms to get what he wanted was all well and good, but not if it gained some unwanted attention. After all, he never learnt how to tone it down and now, he's starting to realize that some people might take his actions as further than he ever intended. Add to that a mysterious God that had blessed him with a power that he never knew he had and he was in for the wildest ride of his life.

    Oh dear...

    Looks like things were about to get messy.
