On the other hand imagine all the comedy that would come from Achilles suddenly learning how handsome his dad is (it's the first time he sees so many people catcall his papa) and he becomes extremely protective of him.🤣
He would make a scene if he thinks his dad's tunic is too short or he would glare at Diomedes and ask him with crossed arms "What are your intentions towards my father".
He treats his dad as an innocent maiden forgetting that this man, HIS FATHER has WAY more experience than him hahaha
-Not an angst post-
If Odysseus and Diomedes are a ~thing~ in this AU I don't know who would be weirder about it: Odysseus who has a guilt complex about Dio being younger than his son, or Achilles who has to deal with having a DILF as a father
What if Penelope was Scylla? How would that go?
In normal epic?
Still Ody loves her the same.
I imagine Ithaca being an island that is way further from the mainland. There Penelope would have a special palace built for her and her family built by Ody. She probably attacks anyone who would be seen as a threat to her or her family.
Also everyone would be shocked, scared and impressed with the fact that Ody married and had a child with a gigantic monster.
There would be a joke where Ody describes Penelope in the sweetest ways and because of it nobody is ever ready to face her true form.
There is a really good fic with a similar promise on ao3 called "Appetite". I really recommend it to you.
It makes me wonder how everything would be once Ody would be pregnant.
How it would affect everyone.
Also how would the Trojan war change.
Let's say that pact somehow still exists and Agamemnon is the one to take everyone into the battlefield.
Would the brothers argue over taking Odysseus or not? Agamemnon might be prideful but he knows that he needs her as the tactitian
What would happen if Agamemnon found out that Odysseus is female Omega during the courting of Helen?
Would he want to blackmail her/court her/ or maybe demand that she marries Menelaus since he wants to ensure a throne for his brother (not being sure if Helen would pick any of them)
There are a few different scenarios that could happen. But he wouldn't attack her. That just wouldn't happen. Because a. Thats a bad look for him to attack an omega (especially an omega woman) who's the guest of his host and b. He had braincells prior to the war so he wasn't a complete fool
1. He gets her to reveal herself to everyone else and now she is getting hounded by everyone else along with Helen. (He would make a fool of her in front of everyone when he outs her too)
2. He attempts to blackmail her into getting Helen to pick him and would demand she marry his brother so he has a throne. And this Would also include getting her to reveal herself and humiliating her. The hardest part is convincing his brother to go along with it because Menelaus isn't the type to marry someone doing it out of distress. (But he would also be the safest option for Ody to marry)
3. He courts her himself. Because hey Ithaca would be a nice edition to his kingdom and forces her to marry him. This is the worst case scenario but also least likely to happen. He has seen Odysseus fight. And I don't think he would want to go through the pain of trying to "tame" her.
4. He doesn't tell anyone and blackmails her without a demand she marry his brother but would blackmail her into marrying one of the other suitors to put her back in her place. And most likely that suitor is the one who reveals she's a woman.
Or maybe Ares is the one who wants to pair them up!?
He would one day run to Penelope in the middle of her training and shout in excitement "You won't believe this, but I think I found a perfect boyfriend for you!"
And Ares would try to describe Ody in the best way possible while Penelope doesn't like the idea of being with god because on her head, the god would probably want s*x and nothing more.
I have an idea for an au, basically the entire plot of God Odysseus, but instead of Penelope, it is now the daughter of Ares because you know Spartan heritage. How would that work out compared to Odysseus?
I think the only change is Ares would be protective of his daughter. But he also helped train and raise Ody so he knows he would be a good match for Penelope.
I'm really fascinated by the idea of Agamemnon pushing Odysseus and Menelaus to marry.
Menelaus would probably be a good and respectful husband to Ody so that's nice 🙂👍
Also a little funny to imagine but Agamemnon would for sure be at least a little pissed seeing Odysseus being all nice and calm around Menelaus meanwhile he got almost mauled by her.
I also wonder how Menelaus would react seeing Diomedes clearly pining for Ody. I can imagine him becoming slightly possessive and protective of his omega but it's also possible he would allow Dio to court her but at least at the beginning Menelaus would be there to make sure that Dio would not try anything malicious on her.

Why is God Odysseus so shy around people?
He is an over-thinker hahaha
Ikr also a blend of "people are so delicate! I need to be careful!" and "I don't want to be too pushy like other gods so how am I gonna do it?"
Kind of a Funny idea God Odysseus decides to save Helen but shape shifts to disguise himself as her so neither Paris or Aphrodite suspects anything. How do you think that would go?
Ody would either troll them seeing how long it takes for them to get tired of "Helen", or he would be preparing some special revenge on Aphrodite for trying to break a lovely marriage.
WOMEN! QUEENS! BEAUTIES!!!!
FINALLY! I came up with a vague concept of the women of Sparta, my favourite one is Clytemnestra, I kind of like how she turned out and how she is different from her cousin and sister, I wanted her to be Extravagant, different,more and less traditional at the same time, just like my Hera( I always say that Agamemnon and Clytemnestra are just the earthly equivalent of Zeus and Hera, change my mind)
Especially when in my mind each of them are associated with goddesses that started the whole war
Penelope-Athena
Helen-Aphrodite
Clytemnestra -Hera
bonus some fancy hairstyles for Hera that she will interchange because she can (and I can't decide)
I can imagine Zeus giving cloud doggy to baby Ody because he wanted to prove to other gods that he's the best grandpa hahaha
Argos is best, Boi. Do you think Odysseus would still have him in this universe, or if he did, how did that come to be, and what's his role?
I don't know which one you are talking about???
In the eldritch au he has Argos as a companion and was a gift from Poseidon. (Odysseus is LONELY in this au. because of like reasons. *hids*)
in the god au. He has Argos who is a cloud doggie (gift from Zeus)

A new chapter of "Sing, O Muse, of Agony" is out. Let's enjoy different flavours of fluff and angst. 🫣
Ody as a titan would be a titan of peace (as calmness) and if he was a god he would most likely be a god of safety (as son of Poseidon he would probably be more connected to sailing)
