The ash wood statue by ASkopsMadeOfMemories
Fandoms: The Iliad - Homer, The Song of Achilles - Madeline Miller, Ancient Greek Religion & Lore
24 Aug 2025

Summary
“Do something. You have to do something. Achilles, please...”
Achilles did not look at Phoenix. He was unable to. He kept his gaze lowered. He looked at his hands. They were huge. Were they his hands? They didn’t look like it.
‘I swear it.’
‘Patroclus leads the march. They’re heading for the walls. Heading to Troy.’
He saw the wooden statue on the floor, at his feet. The boy singing, the lyre in his hands.
‘I swear it.’
“A chariot,” Achilles articulated aloud. Eyes fixed on the statue. “Who has a chariot?”Or: Achilles has a moment of clarity thanks to an old gift from Patroclus and rushes to find him on the battlefield, where the love of his life is pretending to be him, dressed in his armour. Who knows if he will arrive before something tragic occurs...

The Best of the Myrmidons by Rizandace

Summary
“Achilles, you know I love you entirely,” I say. “You know nothing could ever, in all the world, change the depth of my feelings for you.”
I hear the huff of his breath, the beginnings of relief. Something in his face cracks, goes soft, and I know in a moment he will step forward and kiss me, and it will be so much harder to say the next thing once that has happened.
And so I shift back, take a step away from him, and force the next words out, even though to shatter his hopeful expectations will bring me more pain than even the thought of Briseis in Agamemnon’s hands— “but I cannot stay while you persist in this.”

Patroclus makes a different choice, and it changes everything.

Summary
Once, there was a golden hero, blessed by the gods, destined to be remembered for millennia to come. At the hero’s side was another, as close as a shadow and just as impossible to separate. In the end, despite the hero’s promises, neither got the ending they wished for.
This is not that story.
When Achilles vanishes the day after he and Patroclus return to Phthia, Patroclus searches for him desperately, only to learn from Peleus that Achilles has been taken by his mother to the caves beneath the sea, and Patroclus is expected to lead the Myrmidons to Troy in his place. But a strange meeting with a traveller lurking in the shadows of the palace endows Patroclus with the blessing of Hestia, in the form of an ember that has been waiting for a proper bearer for centuries. With the gifts newly given to him, can Patroclus manage to defy Fate itself to find Achilles, survive Troy, avoid the ire of the proud and dangerous Greek kings, and put an end to the cycle of tragedy that has plagued heroes for as long as they have existed?

In the Gentle Eyes of Peace by LyricalKris

Summary
The human kingdoms of Heaven and Hell have been at war for two thousand years, through countless generations. When a tentative peace is reached, the King of Heaven gives his brother and the King of Hell his youngest son in marriage to solidify the treaty. Prince Aziraphale, though he should have been yet another proud alpha in a long line, was instead a gentle soul, misunderstood and largely ostracized by his family. And the gods knew Hell’s omega Prince Crowley was an embarrassment; the black sheep of his family.
They would do their duty, but with hundreds of years of animosity between their two kingdoms, peace is tenuous at best.
