Summary
Tabitha was shoving all the dresses and jackets - they were all the same, of course - that had hung in her closet into the trunk of the car when someone cleared their throat beside her.
“Running yourself out of town?” Stella asked, standing there beside the car, holding her ancient dog, hair messy and dark bags under her eyes. She curved her mouth into a brief smile, like she was trying to make the words a joke.

Summary
Phthia is the land of hail and snow, and this is what they all know, but on Mount Pelion it's always spring. It's like Achilles belongs there. 'The Flame of the North' they call him, for his fire-gold hair; once he goes, Patroclus thinks, all things swift and beautiful and bright will be gone with him.
Perhaps in another life, if Patroclus fell to his knees and begged, Achilles would take pity on him and stay, or ask him to come with him. But this is not this life. In this life, Patroclus hasn't the power to change... anything.
Or: Achilles is the young Prince of Phthia, Patroclus is his squire, in a story where they come together, come apart, then find each other all over again.

Summary
“On Monday…” the man, Achilles’ dad, takes a shaky breath. “Achilles- he- he tried-”
“He wanted you to have this,” the woman interrupts him and holds out a folded piece of paper.
Patroclus’ brain is still trying to make sense of the situation when he unfolds the page. It’s his letter. He stares at both of them with wide eyes, the ones his father says make him look stupid.
“This is..?”
“His note,” the father says, and it looks like he’s going to cry again.
Patroclus feels like his stomach has dropped to the floor. His note.Or: the sort of loosely inspired dear evan hansen au no one asked for
