Summary
In the shadows of war and duty, quiet bonds are hidden from prying eyes—some tender, some painful, and some worth breaking the rules for. This is the story of a forbidden love between Prince Hector of Troy and Queen Odysseus of Ithaca, how it all started and what the war will force them to do.

Summary
Morpheus, the God of Dreams, takes pity on the King and Queen of Ithaca. Odysseus’s return is many years away, yet his and Penelope’s minds find each other in sleep. It’s both a blessing and a curse, and sometimes all that keeps them going.
Queen Penelope stepped into the dream as easily as crossing a threshold, and with her came the sun, as if Helios's carriage rode atop her billowing black hair. The carnage vanished in her presence, the ground no longer a battlefield but a sloping grassy hill dotted with olive trees. Her bright blue eyes almost glowed, searching the hillside with clear intent.
The King of Ithaca stood, gazing at her as if she were a vision of Aphrodite herself. The blood streaking his face and staining his hands evaporated in the wake of her sunlight, the dead bundle in his arms vanishing with it.
Morpheus stared as well, unable to believe that she stood before them. It was no shaped dream becoming a nightmare, no conjuration of the King’s mind to protect himself. It was her, slipping into his dream as if it were a room in their home. Answering her husband’s desperate cries.

Rest another night by HerbOnAStick

Summary
Tonight, the noises of the feast were no more than a murmur in the back of his head. Tonight, the pulsing drum of his own heartbeat was louder.
His hand closed around his sword, the metal lit up in the same shade as the skin at the edge of the blade. Not yet drawing blood but close to it. Tawny eyes met his frozen stare. Neither of them moved.
“Already trying to kill your comrades to get home faster?”Or:
After years of fighting the trojans, Odysseus' nights are never quiet.
On one of these restless nights Odysseus gets a special visit that he didn't know he wanted, or needed.

Summary
He saw the glint of metal in the moonlight - that slight compression of air around him that had him turning sharply, sword out and twist --
Odysseus dropped his sword.
Diomedes continued the motion, shoving Odysseus' hand up and across his chest while pressing in and close. Three steps - one, two three and shoving down, and Odysseus dropped.
Odysseus and Diomedes steal the Palladium. Odysseus attempts to stab Diomedes - but it's okay. No one else saw, so it's no big deal... right?

Bookmarker's Notes
看特洛伊之歌Dio不得不应Ody要求鞭笞他以增加伪装身份的可信度，在Ody背上留下终身的伤痕，Dio的心理活动：“鞭笞他时我在某些方面受的伤害他是感受不到的。对奥德修斯而言，这不过是实现目的的手段”。这篇同人把特歌的不对称箭头捋平了一点，第三人在场强迫施虐/受虐，行为上的施虐者受到更重的精神损害，但双方不言自明的默契成功骗过第三人，而且事后Ody还把Dio给哄好（一些）了，赞美作者。虽然我不太能想象阿伽门农权力能大成这样，但为了圆满我的遗憾，这个坏人就请总帅你姑且演一下吧XD
