Summary
“Easy, kid.” The voice cut through the noise effortlessly, raspy with disuse but gentle all the same. Telemachus blinked up at the man in front of him – he must have practically fallen on top of him, but there was no annoyance in his tone.
He had only a moment to analyse him – tanned skin, warm brown eyes, scars showing at the edges of his tunic – before the guards lost patience and began to push forward again. The man resisted for a just moment, frowning slightly as his eyes darted across the exposed half of Telemachus’s face like there was something written on it he was trying to decode.
Reluctantly, with the persuasion of a sword digging into the small of his back, he kept walking, though his head turned back to glance at him a last time, his brows still slightly creased.
---
Or, where Antinous is king of Trojan-allied Thrace and kidnaps Telemachus to settle a grudge he's never forgiven, keeping him captive with other Greek prisoners long after the war has ended. Somewhere far across the ocean, Odysseus is released from Calypso's island six years early.

Summary
The approach of the 100th annual Hunger Games--the fourth Quarter Quell--brings a rise in the number of possible tributes for the year. With the new possibility of anyone being chosen, despite age, former victor titles, or gender, it's no wonder why there's a spike in not only names in the bowl, but volunteers. Nathaniel Wesninski, a career from district two, finds that the only challenge he'll truly find within the mosh pit of poorly chosen weaklings is Andrew Dobson, someone who sees what lays behind the sheep's skin of Nathaniel's small, lanky stature and his bright blue eyes.
