    Summary

    Achilles tilts his chin up defiantly, in an effort to stare Patroclus down. He only succeeds in looking like a petulant child. “It is considered a great honour to be a therapon to a prince, you know.”

    “Honour is meant to be earned, not handed out as if to a beggar, or a dog.”

    Achilles’ nostrils flare, his green-gold eyes gleaming dangerously. “Such scorn from someone who was training to be a common footsoldier just this morning. Many of the boys back at the yard would beg for this chance.”

    “Then you should have chosen one of them, perhaps." Patroclus glances down at the expensive chiton and his brand new arms, and hates how heavy and foreign they feel on him. “I didn’t ask for any of this.”

    The last thing Patroclus wants is to become therapon to the Prince of Phthia. He had his fill of princelings back when he lived in Opus—hell, he used to be one himself. He doesn't need some stuck-up demigod child to size him up and appoint him his glorified manservant. He'd much rather pass, thank you very much.

    Achilles, however, is unlike any prince he's ever met.

    Summary

    From their childhood in Phthia in the 90’s, and later in Pelion, to their lives as lawyers in Troy, the city of gangs and corruption, Achilles and Patroclus navigate their relationship in a world mixing romance, thriller and comedy with the help of Briseis, Automedon, Paris and Helen (who are a more iconic duo than a twink and a redhead).

    This is the second version—revised and augmented—of my first fic, so you can consider it complete since it was once and will be again.

    “Patroclus? Do you understand?” Do you understand. The cruelty of adults. They usually asked questions like this as if they expected only a simple and reluctant nod of obedience. But the worried voice and the pity in the eyes of the social worker in front of Patroclus made him think there was more to it this time. And the truth was, he did not understand. [...] Out of habit, he nodded. Whether he meant it or not had never mattered before. The social worker stood up, gave him a sad smile and ruffled his hair, as if to scatter his thoughts, and left, leaving him alone in the colorful yet dull room of the social center. A hair ruffle for a gone mother.

    Summary

    “Quite the tall order, yer Majesty, and it comes along with a steep price.”

    “Name it.” Pelues states, his muscles tightening with nervousness.

    “First, myself and my crew will be welcomed at Phthia’s port with no suspicion.”

    Some of the tension left the king’s shoulders. An easy task to accomplish, but there were more demands to come. “Done.”

    A sly smile on the pirate’s mouth. “Second, you will stock my ship with the finest provisions whenever I ask.” He raised a hand before Pelues could protest. “No more than four times a year.”

    The king exhaled sharply. “Fine.”

    “Third,” Patroclus paused to rake his eyes over Achilles’ form. “You will give me your son's hand in marriage.”

    Summary

    Heroes have the ability to rise above and become stars, or fall off their horses in their quest for endless recognition.
    Achilles had always found these stories repetitive.

    -

    This is an Iliad fic first. Some aspects of TSOA are too good not to use (it's also just an objectively pretty book) even if I personally don't like some character portrayals (*cough* Thetis & Deidamia *cough*).

    This is a WIP, I will go back and update/edit chapters even after I post them. Tags will be added when I remember, warnings are given for individual chapters

    Summary

    We don’t even ask for happiness, just a little less pain
    ~ Charles Bukowski

    Somehow Achilles and Patroclus survive the scarring and meaningless war at Troy, but the life they will lead after may turn out to be just as difficult as those ten treacherous years. Finding the happiness they both have longed for for countless years may never happen, but as long as they ease their pains together, everything will be okay.

    Right?

    Summary

    ‘How will you tell your father? About the prophecy?” The words were loud in the silence of midnight. For a moment he was still. Then he said, ‘I do not think I will.’
    ‘Never?’
    He shook his head, just the barest shadow. ‘There is nothing he can do. It would only bring him grief.’
    (TSOA, Chapter 16)

    Achilles never told his father about the prophecy. This is a little one-shot about Peleus learning that his beloved son will never return home from Troy.

    Summary

    “Wait, wait, wait—” Patroclus says, holding up a hand. “Why are you here, Achilles? What are you doing?”

    “I’m flying to Singapore with you.” He grins at Patroclus as if he’s just given him the best news of his entire life, before he adds, “It's been ages since we did something together; I thought it’d be fun to surprise you. Didn’t you miss me?”

    Just as Patroclus gets ready for the most important work trip of his career, Achilles decides to come along for the ride without asking. After not having seen each other for a year, the friendship they once had is hanging by a thread... while the tension that neither of them wants to acknowledge is heavier than ever.

    Summary

    Patroclus shifted, only slightly. “Don’t make me do this, Achilles. I don’t want to kill you– I want to love you, not mourn you.” A sharp breath came from his lover as he adjusted his stance once more.

    “You won’t kill me, Patroclus. Why? Because you love me too much to hurt me.”

    (What if Paris kidnapping Helen of Sparta wasn’t the main spark that started Troy War? What if it was Achilles?)

    Summary

    "Because I remember you, Patroclus.
    I remember you, as you were in my father’s stables, taming even the wildest horses. I remember you, as you were on Pelion, dressing your first wound to perfection. I remember you, as you were in my armour, as you were on your knees begging me to fight, as you were on our bed, your eyes closed, drenched in blood, covered in dust, with that smile on your face.

    And tonight, when I find the wherewithal to rise and return to our tent, I will wipe down my lyre and I will sing of you.

    These are the solemn honours owed the dead."

    ---

    Alternatively: Achilles is also made of memories, and the night before that fateful day outside the Scaean Gates, he finds himself thinking back to all that was, and all that could've been.
