Summary
“You Gods love playing games, don’t you?" Odysseus had a wild spark in his eyes. “Then let’s play, Poseidon. First one to beg loses. If I win, you let me go free. If you win, I'll stay your prisoner, and you can do whatever the hell you want with me.”
Poseidon stared at Odysseus for a long moment, and in an instant something finally clicked into place.
“You’re crazy, aren’t you?” Poseidon realized.
—
Odysseus chooses to sacrifice himself to Zeus at the end of Thunder Bringer, but Poseidon intervenes, determined to be the one to kill Odysseus. Together they go on the run, and Poseidon decides he must execute Odysseus in front of all of Ithaca to redeem his reputation. In order to save himself from Poseidon’s wrath, Odysseus realizes he has only one way out of this: he needs to seduce the God of the Ocean.
But what happens when schemes for survival and revenge turn into actual feelings...

Summary
Everyone thought that Odysseus's journey was over. Ithaca had her king, and Penelope her love.
Until a wounded and banished Poseidon washes up on their shores.
Odysseus must face the ghosts that haunt him from his journey; Telemachus struggles to reconcile his father's sins with his mother's lessons; Penelope holds out hope that the man before her will not succumb to the monster within; and Poseidon wrestles with what is owed and what is earned, even for a god.

Summary
From the kinkmeme: AU Warlord!Geralt receives Tribute!Jaskier as a sacrifice to appease him in every way possible. Jaskier has no choice on the matter and he’s fully aware of the awful rumours that have spread about Geralt and his ruthless conquests. (But we all know those aren’t legit.) A classic angst with a happy ending please! A dash of smut to heal those scars and a sprinkle of new found love!
Jaskier arrives at Kaer Morhen knowing his family gave him up without a second thought, and absolutely sure that the dreaded Warlord of the North will value him even less than his own blood did. But the White Wolf and his pack are not what Jaskier expected...and if he's unreasonably lucky, Kaer Morhen might become far more of a home than Lettenhove ever was.
...He is, in fact, going to be unreasonably lucky, because the Warlord of the North is a far finer monarch - and a far better man - than Redania's king has ever dreamed of being.
