What Killed Odysseus's Crew? A Comprehensive List

*meanwhile, in the Underworld* Polites: Eurylochus, back so soon? And...there's the rest of your crew. And by the gods, what happened to you? Eurylochus, who is sick of thematically-significant reprises: >:(

warrior penelope au but it's malewife odysseus YEARNING for his wife for 20 goddamn years... i draw him way too much in penny's own au but I LOVE HIM SO MUCH-

i have a link to the fic that i was inspired by : https://archiveofourown.org/series/4380808

long story short, odysseus got sent early off in war because of a mistake he and his crew made (letting their guards down) got to be with penelope for a bit, until she and other women had to be sent to war AGAIN, replacing ody and the men who were injured.. isn't that just fun? Odysseus got shot in the shoulder, hence why he has a scar.

him raising telemachus all alone oh God,,,

maybe in 'The Challenge' instead of weaving, he'd sculpt a statue of penelope to make the suitresses wait even longer, buying penelope time

idk if telemachus is considered genderbent or not in this au... but anyways, he misses his mom too :")

Au with Marinette as Percy Jackson twin sister and she has sea green eyes like him how would she react to kawamis and how she deal with being the air with akumas and also deal with lila

Demigod Marinette!

Okay, so her name in this is Maris (which means of the sea) because Sally is amazing at naming children and she is just overall amazing tbh

She is much more subdued than her twin brother, which turns out to be a good thing, since it allows her to apply to a scholarship in Paris for a design school, which she is accepted for. Her mother insist she go by boat instead of plane and while Mari is surprised, she agrees because she preferred it anyway.

Percy is sad to see his sister go but understands that it will be better for her in Paris instead of in New York with Smelly Gabe.

When the whole Demigod, monster thing happens and Percy is all over the news with Sally reported as missing, Mari has a breakdown in class because her only family is missing, probably dead and she doesn’t know what to do,

at that point, she already has the Kwami and has become the guardian early because of Master Fu’s untimely passing. The Kwami try to comfort this girl and when the news of Percy and Sally being okay reaches Mari she weeps of joy and goes home immediately, damn the consequences! She needs to be with her family right now. 

By the time she gets back, Sally is waiting for her and takes her to camp halfblood where she is immediately claimed because she is Percy’s twin, she could only be the daughter of Poseidon as well. She does not care one bit, grabbing hold of her brother and berating him for worrying her all the while babbling about how much she missed and loved him. 

Almost everyone else is staring because “Uh, who is she?” “My twin sister”

When the Kwami come out, everyone is freaked out. the Kwami are pissed at the Greeks and have half a mind to charge up to Olympus and demand justice for these children and both surprisingly and unsurprisingly, it is Tikki leading them. Mari has to talk them down, which the other campers find both entertaining and horrifying because those are tiny, powerful GODS!!!!!!

Maris doesn’t understand what the big deal is because they are all sort of the weird extended family she never had in her eyes. 

Do you love the color of the sky?

Inspired by @lady-raziel ‘s post cause let’s face it, this is basically the Skyrim meme

Penelope: *strained in her room, depressed*

Odysseus: *has ptsd, on the verge of throwing himself off of a cliff*

Telemachus: "I didn't die! Best day ever :D"

Someone help this family

Suitor calypso...

I like this

Odysseus: *gently hands Athena baby Telemachus*

Athena: …you were PREGNANT AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME?!

Odysseus: what?- no-

Athena: DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS?! I WAS TRAINING YOU!

Odysseus: no I wasn’t the one-

Athena: THAT POOR BOY WAS PROBABLY SO SQUISHED IN YOUR HELMET! LOOK AT HOW SMALL HE IS!!

Random thoughts that keep CC up at night no. 230394: Warrior!Penelope edition

So I haven't seen a lot for Odysseus in this AU (which, fair, it isn't about him) but I had a few thoughts

- of course after a while, suitors for Odysseus start showing up, but ofc it's women instead of men

- because of this, the castle isn't as trashed as it is in the original Odyssey, but a lot of the Ithica family's money and food is being used up by the suitors

- instead of intimidation like the male suitors use on Penelope, the suitors for Odysseus try to seduce him

- a lot of the women are seen with provocative clothing and lots of jewelry to make them look expensive

- all of them fawning to get Ody's attention meanwhile all he's thinking is "I miss my wife D,: "

- idk names for Antonius' counterpart, but she would be just as aggressive

- maybe as Telemachus starts getting older, a few start going after him as well

- instead of Odysseus making a funeral shroud for Penelope's father, he gets his childhood nurse, Eurycleia to make it (who does indeed unthread it every night like Penelope)

- for the challenge that Odysseus sets up, it's a challenge of skill like the one Penelope does, but a different kind

- the challenge? Outsmart him.

- which may seem simple at a glance compared to the challenge Penelope sets up, but this is Odysseus we're talking about, chosen by Athena for his smarts

- even if in this AU he isn't chosen by a god (which, idk if that's true) he's still sly as hell, and the only person to ever outwit him is his own wife

- the suitors get frustrated that no matter what they say, what angle they got at, they just can't outwit him

- the suitors plans near the end are a lot different, planning to have Telemachus' ship wrecked somewhere with the help of a few well placed bribes, and getting Odysseus drunk and one of them seducing him (I don't know about Greek times, but I do know in older times if a man were to get a woman pregnant, he had to marry her, so that's what I'm going off of)

- but ofc Penelope is here before they can even begin to bribe the crew on Telemachus' ship, and she kills them all :]

- Would you Fall in Love with Me is the same but Odysseus is more pathetic and saying how he's always been hers, and that's never changed no matter what she's done
