Summary
Despite having no memories of his life before meeting Bam, Aguero has managed to establish his spot at Bam's side; not only guiding him as his tactician, but as his partner and eventually husband.
But years after building this new life, as a supposedly unwinnable war against the Great Families and Jahad looms before them, Aguero begins dreaming of Bam's death at his hands.
"Aguero!"
Bam's voice dragged Aguero from his dream, his tether to the world. His worried face, golden eyes wide, filled Aguero's vision when Aguero finally pried his eyes open.
When he noticed Aguero was awake, he smiled, and Aguero shivered with the memory of the smile Bam had worn as he died.
"What were you dreaming about?" Bam asked, hand coming up to cradle Aguero's cheek. "You looked terrified. I haven't seen you like that since..." His lips pursed, eyes flicking off to the side, and Aguero knew that Bam was remembering the deaths of V and Arlene, the deaths that Aguero's tactics hadn't been good enough to prevent all those years ago. "Well, it's been a long time."
Aguero swallowed, letting just enough time pass for his answer not to be suspicious. "I don't remember."

Summary
(title from "The Moon Will Sing" by The Crane Wives)
Bam hardly set foot on the first step before a voice rang out, low and calm but with an edge of suspicion. "Who's up there?"
He hesitated. Though he knew that he had to kill whoever was down there, it seemed cruel to do so without even giving him a chance. "I think I'm here to kill you?"
What do you think you're doing? Rachel demanded.
Silence, then laughter came echoing up the stairs. "You must be the worst assassin I've ever heard of, announcing your intentions like that. Come on down, then, and give it a try."
I guess we won't get a better invitation than that, the other voice inside him muttered, his unease clear. Let's go.
Bam made his way down, his footsteps silent against the stone through no effort of his own. He came out in a shadowed room, the moon through the window illuminating a graceful figure seated against the wall. In its silvery light, the figure's light blue hair almost seemed to glow, framing his face like a halo. Cobalt eyes stared back at him, tired but bright with curiosity.

Summary
(title from "Take Me to War" by The Crane Wives)
Over a month after driving the suitors from his kingdom, an unexpected visitor comes with a message Khun can't ignore.
"Are you just going to follow me around all night, or are you going to tell me what you're here for?" Aguero called out, tucking a hand in his sleeve.
Silence. He grasped at the hilt of his hidden dagger, keeping his breathing steady.
The scrape of movement against cobblestone rang out, and Aguero pivoted out of the way as a flash of silver flew toward him. Pain seared across his cheek in its wake, the blade clattering against the wall behind him.
"You've gotten slow," a familiar voice followed the blade. "Unless you mean to tell me that you let me hit you on purpose."
(this fic takes place about a month after the events of "though i never thought that it would end like this" & "i will fall in love with you")

Summary
homophrosýnē: being of the same mind; a word used to describe the relationship between odysseus and penelope in the odyssey
a set of fics exploring various ideas inspired by the end of the odyssey, with bam in the role of odysseus and khun in the role of penelope. though these fics started as being inspired by the end of the odyssey, this AU has grown way more than i expected by me fitting ToG lore into this setting (and by me exploring alternate timelines)
it is not meant to be set in mythological ancient greece, but aspects of the setting (and of course obviously the original plot) have taken inspiration from it, while blending in parts of ToG lore
