Summary
A story that explores the events of Homer's The Iliad and The Odyssey if Odysseus had spared the son of Prince Hector and Andromache and raised him as his own. During the fall of Troy, Odysseus finds Prince Astyanax protected by Aphrodite. In her support of Troy, Aphrodite convinces and coerces Odysseus to spare the boy. Zeus and Athena both give warnings to Odysseus, telling him that Astyanax is poised to bring great suffering to Odysseus and Ithaca. Odysseus will have to make it home, struggling between the dangers of the journey, keeping a baby alive, and the rivalries of the Olympic Gods. This unlikely pairing of mortals may bring together a rival pair of goddesses, Athena and Aphrodite, putting aside their differences to make sure their champions are safe.

Summary
“Your name?”
The girl didn’t even look back at him.
“Annabeth. And you are the great Odysseus. When this war comes to a close, my name will be etched across the walls of Troy.”
-or-
In the final hour of the Trojan war, Athena gifts the Greek army with her only daughter. In retaliation, Poseidon sends his son to fight for Troy. When they meet, they will be forced to defy not only their parents, but also the armies they serve.

Summary
Hektor is home, if only for a little while, to ease the tightness in her chest and chase the worry from her veins.
Or:
He has been home for a few hours, maybe more, but it feels as if forever is slowly sinking into the walls of their shared space once more now that she finally has him all to herself.
Andromache is not a selfish woman.
She has allowed him time with his mother, his sisters, his father. She has given him time with the people of Troy, with the worried and doubt-filled, the ones left behind. If anything, it is more generosity than she should have shared.
Alright.
Maybe Adromache is a selfish woman.
(Only with him.)

Cuando empezó el saqueo de la ciudad Polites había pensado en escapar hacia el Lacio hasta que, se acordó de Astyanax. Su pequeño sobrino tenía menos de un año, probablemente estaba en el palacio, solo en medio de todo el caos.

Summary
This was because her Hector would not be going to war today. No, not when he had to prepare funeral pyres to bury the poor dead. The weeping of women and children and fathers and mothers filled the halls of Ilios and left them all clinging onto their chests, thinking the worst of their own families, seeing their sons and fathers and brothers as uncles more as ghosts then people.
The thought of him staying made her feel so glad, however horrible that may be.
He would be here. He would not be held down by war, though death still lingered on his skin.
She could trust that he would return to her.
/
or, hector and andromache take care of their horses together.

AU where Penelope goes to war instead of Odysseus.
/
After the Achaean victory, Penelope becomes reclusive and melancholy while they wait a few weeks for winds to pick up, and she tends to Astynax in his remaining time before she must kill him.

Summary
"It sounds so..." He trailed away, mumbling to himself. And then, stronger now, "Telemachus, wait, I need to tell you something."
Telemachus continued to look at him, watching the way a confusing pit of pink rested on his pale cheeks.
"Tell me," Telemachus said, too nervous for his own good.
Neoptolemus closed his eyes and opened them again. They reached Telemachus and he lifted his chin, "I like you."
/
or, neo confesses his feelings and telemachus freaks out.
