    Summary

    In an alternate turn of events, Penelope finds out what the suitors have planned once they fail her challenge and she snaps.

    This is kind of a Warrior!Penelope fanfic. She's still at home and Odysseus is off doing his monster thing somewhere though.

    Loosely based on, but definitely inspired by, the fan AU song released by Gwendy. Give it a listen, it's awesome.

    Summary

    ”You’re thinking about him again, aren’t you?” Her son’s voice, a bit accusative, came from behind her.

    Once a week, before the last peak of light disappeared behind the horizon, she came to stand here at this cliffside, waiting for a black smudge to appear in the distance. Telemachus knew this, he even accompanied her in the past when both of them visited it more frequently, hope driving their wait. The only reason he’d seek her out at this time was if he was in one of those grief-stricken moods where he wished Odysseus had never existed at all.

    The grief of those whom Odysseus had left behind.

    Summary

    "Then jump in the water and kiss me," he says. He extends his arms, making as if to catch her, skin stretching over muscle and bone.

    She takes a step back. "Odysseus, I've told you this before. You know I'm afraid of the ocean."
