    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.

    Summary

    With a delightful growl, Patroclus yanks at Achilles’ head, pulling them together. Achilles’ eyes flutter closed. Patroclus’ breath is hot on his cheeks, and his beard tickles Achilles’ bare chin. Their lips brush. “Achilles,” Patroclus says, voice deep and cracked and tight, “if I fuck you, will you see the embassy?”

    “If you fuck me well enough,” Achilles gasps, “I’ll do anything you like,” and he slams their mouths together.

    Night is falling on the beaches of Troy. The Greeks are losing the war. Achilles, uncaring, waits for his lover. Patroclus has other things on his mind.

    Summary

    Brutus spends his life torn between disquiet, distaste and desperate pining for Caesar, leading to his infamous betrayal. In his own final moments, he raises a plea: “Jupiter Maximus, take pity on me. If by Your grace there is a way to atone for what I did to him, I beg You: let me do so in the afterlife.

    His wish is granted.

    There is no god, for he is just a humble man of his city. There is no blood, except his own, to this tenet he holds true. This story has no beginning, and it has no end. That is how you hold onto power. That is what you must create.

    Summary

    “For you,” he said, holding it out. Hector did not lift a hand.

    “What is it?”

    “A gift,” Achilles explained, still holding the jar between them. “A salve from Delphi. I'm assured by some reliable sources that it will help fade scars.” When Hector did not reply, he risked a look over at the Ilian and found himself inordinately pleased at the look of shock on the man's face.

    “Just take it,” he said, jiggling the jar, “I give you my word that it is not explosive or toxic.” He did not know that for certain, of course, but he was willing to stake his word on Odysseus's cleverness any day.

    Summary

    Patroclus comes home to an empty living room. A cold coffee mug sits abandoned on the table, and the fuzzy blue blanket is missing from the back of the couch.

    “Achilles?” he calls.

    There’s no response. Patroclus doesn’t say anything, just locks the door, slips off his shoes, and limps to the kitchen.
