Summary
My father was eager for a child, even more eager for a son. An heir to secure his legacy, a boy to fish and hunt and teach. When I was born, my father forgot perhaps that I would inherit not only his looks, and my mother’s warm brown skin. This wasn't the worst of it. No, the worst was that I was not his son. It was obvious when they presented me to him for the first time, and my eyes were a molten gold.
*****
A rewrite of the Song of Achilles, in which Patroclus may or may not be a demigod.

Summary
It started as a joke. Light teasing everyone with an annoying best friend knows to well.
An “Of course he’s blonde.” here, “Athletic? Who would’ve guessed?” there.
But right now he’s seriously questioning Briseis' sanity.Bookmarked by shatteredtoosoon

Summary
Achilles is Aristos Achaion, yet he isn't bred for war nor for violence. His hands are made for lyre strings, for plucking figs and digging into pomegranate, for pointing out stars and skipping stones on calm ponds. His hands are made for love, only wild in the throes of passion and gentle immediately after to reassure no harm was done.
Yes, those hands are kind, but they can kill. For him, Patroclus knows, they would.
