Summary
“Alright!” Odysseus says, checking his appearance in the mirror one last time before turning to face the others. “Runway in five minutes! Everyone, listen up!”
“Oh my god,” Neo grumbles, throwing his hands up and retreating as far away as he can in the tiny dressing room. “Guys, he’s doing the pep talk thing again! Someone gag him before I lose my mind!”
“Shut up, Neo,” he says cheerfully. “Alright, my brothers, listen closely-”
Or: The first half of "The Horse and the Infant", but make it a runway show.

Summary
Odysseus knows he is being foolish. If he’s allowed to have a connection to a single Olympian, here on this Tartarus attempting to disguise itself as Elysium, it would make more sense for him to choose Lord Hermes, who has aided him before.
(It has been a year, and yet he still pines for home. Calypso has grown tired, and thinks that granting him a single god’s attention would sate him—as if anything could sate him but going home and seeing Penelope, meeting Telemachus again for the first time in thirteen years.
Gods. His boy is fourteen now).
And yet, when the Goddess Calypso demands to know who he will take on, as his one deity, he finds himself saying, “Athena.”
(OR: Athena finds herself missing Odysseus enough to check on Telemachus earlier and is therefore convinced to look in on Odysseus earlier, only to find that she can't reach out to him unless Calypso allows it. A year later, Calypso agrees to let him have a connection to a deity of his choosing. He chooses Athena, because some part of him will always think of himself as hers.)
OR OR: the "Odysseus pretends to date Calypso to buy Athena time to get him off Ogygia" AU that got far more serious than I thought.)

Summary
Don't take this seriously, looool. They're just comedy one-shots or angs. IDK, I wanted to see a little more lightheartedness in the journey to Troy (even if it focused more on Ody). English isn't my first language.

Summary
Because unlike the rest of them, his nights were already claimed. Not by flesh, but by memory. One thought, one presence haunted him, however distant she might be. No matter how he tried to bury himself in duty, her memory returned, unbidden, bringing him unbearable pain and longing.
In quiet moments, it overtook him – the sound of her voice, the feel of her smaller hand clasped in his, the way the light fell across her hair. So many details stayed with him, small and sacred.
His Penelope
(or, Stuck at Troy, Odysseus thinks back on the years he spent with Penelope after their marriage)

Summary
He could still remember the night he had returned to his kingdom and painted his palace in red with the blood of Penelope’s suitors.
'I will fall in love with you over and over again! No matter when or where! I don’t care how long it’s been, you’re mine!'
She said those words like they were nothing but to him it meant the world. It reassured him that even after all he had done, all the mistakes he made his wife still loved him the same. In that moment Odysseus could only pray that Penelope was right and that she could fall in love with every version of him. Because in the end Odysseus was ready to give up everything in order to try and reunite with her wife and he hoped she would do the same for him.
“I would like to take your offer” he said with confidence as he put the ring on his finger.

Summary
Athena has a new warrior, and he sources most of his motivation from his family, a wife and a son. She can’t say she’s ever seen the appeal in creating some squealing, snivelling brat, but if Odysseus is so smitten with the child then the kid might be worth meeting.
And, as always, when one God shows interest in a mortal, said mortal becomes a magnet for other divine beings.

Summary
The voice didn't sound like Calypso. Calypso's voice was always far too sweet, it felt like honey, slowly coating him in, drowning and choking him.
This voice was different.
It sounded warm.

Summary
Eurylochus sighs, steeling himself for Odysseus’ fury. “There were two Penelopes. In the water.”
At once, Odysseus shifts from indifferent to indignant as he immediately splutters in disbelief. “What? No way,” he shakes his head disbelievingly, and before Eurylochus gets a chance to offer any of his wise advice to ease his friend’s addled mind, Odysseus has already put himself out there, like the fool he is.
“Hey! Which one of you buffoons are after my Penelope?” He demands, and all heads turn to his direction, gaping at him as if he’d grown an extra head. “I have been told that there was a second siren that looked like my wife!”
Eurylochus facepalms. Externally, this time, just to make sure his disapproval is visible to everyone in the room.
Or ship. Whatever.

Summary
“Don’t you miss me?” her voice called.
She was so close by. Closer than before. Most hallucinations and dreams of her presented her within range of eyesight, but she always maintained an almost mist-like quality to her, the impermanence of her being deepening the feeling of being stranded, far, far away from his home. It never stopped him from reaching out.
“More than you know,” the admission slipped from his lips like water overflowing dams, uncontained and too true to hide.
