Summary
“Please” Achilles begs me through tears one night “I cannot bear it anymore.”
His tears are enough to threaten my own to start falling but I would not let them, not yet.
“What would you have us do?” I ask him, putting my hand on his, trying to calm him from his suffering.
“Let us leave.”
“They will hunt us down Achilles!”
“Then let them hunt us down.” He says desperately.This is an antiwar AU where Achilles and Patroclus are soldiers during the time of the Peloponnesian war and are forced to fight or they will be killed.

Summary
Updated 8/11/2024: Two new chapters (17 and 18). Kassandra and Brasidas try to envision a life after the Cult. Meanwhile, Myrrine does not like Brasidas and makes it literally everybody's problem.
He has thought of her often since Pylos. Primarily with resentment, followed immediately by guilt. Now that she isn’t dead, he can resent her in peace as the demon she is—selfish, impulsive, and apparently now a traitor with hands stained by Spartan blood.
If he is to be thorough, as he always is, he must consider the possibility that this is not a ruse, and she truly did not know him until she fell. But what does that matter? Either version of her is a traitor to Sparta. And to him.
No, it matters not. All roads lead her to the hemlock grove.
Three years after Kassandra is declared dead at the Battle of Pylos, she descends on Amphipolis with a glowing sword and no memory. Brasidas meets her on the field, intent on bringing her the death she deserves, but finds himself caught in her orbit. In other words, my little thought experiment of "What if Kassandra makes every choice in the game to piss off Brasidas, and also he survives Amphipolis"?

Summary
Time moves ahead—infinitely—and everything shifts. Nothing is what it seems—by not challenging our limitations, we live trapped in an illusory world—indefinitely.
Aspasia and Kassandra remain frozen in the Cave of Gaia. For them, Time stopped, chaining them down in the cave and making them both its slaves.
Perhaps it's time for them to challenge those limits—to break free and find contentment with reality. But is the outside of the cave too blinding to face?

Summary
Chiton, check. Greaves, check. Cuirass, check. Helmet, check. Sword and spear, check. Shield, check.
Dimitri felt like he was looking at a stranger as he stared at himself, standing tall and proud in the armor of a hoplite. He felt like he was looking at someone much older, wiser, and stronger than how he really felt on the inside. He supposed they did say that clothes made the man, though, and if this was what he looked like as a soldier, well… he thought he could probably fool anyone into thinking he was a man whose shoulders could handle the weight of Athens’ future.
----
Taking the oath of citizenship in Athens was an honor, which Dimitri and Khalid knew well. With this vow, they promised to carry the fate of the city on their shoulders.
Neither knew that the perilous fate that bound them was far bigger than Athens.

Summary
"It was unmistakable, really. The way he bowed before giving his name. His way of speaking. His stance. His brutal but sophisticated fighting style, revealing years of training and experience on the battlefield. The way he anticipated her movements and reacted to them. It was a dialogue. A dance. Something she’d never experienced before. "
Kassandra meets a Spartan spy in a burning warehouse. What the future holds for them, only the Fates know.

Summary
She was still staring at him a little like a lion watching a gazelle. “He was your father,” She said, completely losing him for a moment, her voice turning raw and hurt and enraged, “and he threw you to them the moment they demanded your blood.”
Not quite what happened, honestly, but Desmond carefully kept his mouth shut and his eyes fixed on her. She ripped her gaze away from him, breath hissing through her teeth. Her shoulders came up around her ears, rigid, and she bent over her knees with her hands clasped so tightly together that her scarred knuckles turned white. Then, quietly, as if it was only her thinking outloud and like maybe it wasn’t meant for anyone else’s ears, “You are like me.”

Summary
Nico di Angelo and Will Solace thought that they could finally relax and live out the rest of their days in a quiet sort of half-retirement from Olympian shenanigans. Meanwhile, Piper McLean is finally beginning to piece together the shattered remnants of her life in far-off Oklahoma with the girl she really likes. Reyna Arellano and Thalia Grace tromp across the Americas, hunting wild beasts, recruiting hapless maidens, and transfiguring men into rodents. Finally, Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase have graduated and gone off to college. Unfortunately for them, family grudges can come back with vengeance, and the cruelty of mortals far surpasses the cruelty of the gods.

Malcolm, son of Athena, will not be forgotten. He will make sure of it. He will be immortal in the memory of man.
Theodora wants control. She wants freedom. But most of all, she wants power.
And Robert just really, really hates his last name. And his family too, but that's just a Chase thing, isn't it?
OR
It is a strange age when the universe turns on itself. It is an age of death and an age of birth. It is an age of secrets and an age of truth.
It is an age of chaos.

“I have never witnessed a prayer to Death before,” Ares says. “I wished to observe.”
“Merely observe?” Aphrodite asks, her smile sly.
“For now.”
“I rather think he’ll be here sooner if you let your heart sing, dearest,” she hums, ever knowing. “You love very loudly.”
“Dite,” he says, warningly.
“Merely a suggestion, darling.”

Summary
Spring, 413BCE. The Peace of Nikias has ended. Sparta and Athens are at one another's throats again. Before the Peace, Sparta was having few successes; but they have a plan they hope will turn the tide against Athens...
Against this backdrop of renewed hostilities, Alexios and Thaletas are called upon to complete a mission for King Agis, which will test them and their relationship in ways they haven’t been tested before...As with the previous parts, this work uses mostly characters from the game, with a few of my own carried over from the first two parts of this story.
As before, I’ll include in the footnotes when I’ve drawn something directly from history or when I have deliberately chosen to ignore it, for those of you who are interested.
I hope you enjoy it!

Summary
It's 446 BCE, the Greek world has known peace for some time. Many years passed since King Leonidas I and his army of 300 paid the ultimate sacrifice for their freedom until darkness began to sow in the shadowy depths of Greece's shores. Kara grows up in Sparta, proud daughter to the House of El, aspiring to be a proud warrior like her parents before her. However when her father returns home from a patrol with a young girl, carrying a bloodied broken spear in her fingers - the air smells of war once again.
Kara had always wanted to be a true Spartan but as the world changes, long-devised schemes being put in motion, deceit creeping over the horizon, she wonders just how much that will cost her.
