    Summary

    “Don’t you see?!” Cassandra demands, grabbing Nestor by the shoulders and shaking him. Patroclus watches the show with mild interest. “There are cool kids and there are losers, there are jocks and rich kids and geeks and goths and stoners and everything in between, and what we’re about to enter is a swirling vortex of horror wherein they all intermix.”

    ~~~ ~~~ ~~~

    Or, in which Patroclus pines after Achilles, Achilles pines after Patroclus, Briseis plays matchmaker, Odysseus has bad ideas, Diomedes has worse ones, Agamemnon sucks, Menelaus can't hold down a girlfriend, and the entire school goes to war.

    Karma is the Guy with the Tropes by

    Summary

    Karma [noun]
    /ˈkɑː.mə/
    =a concept of action, work, or deed, and its effect or consequences

    Trope [noun]
    /trəʊp/
    =a recurring theme or idea

    Achilles really thought that this would be it; That everything that has happened during the past month was the universe's punishment for being such an idiot. But this right now? A clear sign that karma isn't done with him yet, and maybe even feeling particularly funny today.

    Or: Achilles makes fun of rom-coms and karma is served to him in the form of Patroclus, who drags him right into one
