    Summary

    Hands grab him before he can fall, bruising. A faraway thought comes that the hands on him would hurt, if not for the arrow piercing him through.

    Through the pain, he still knows that grip by touch, Ithacan and reminiscent of home even after nine years — Odysseus, Odysseus.

    In a moment of sickness during the Trojan War, Eurylochus grapples with youth, a home he cannot return to, and Odysseus. Or, an open casket of a letter to wanting to be wanted.

    Summary

    “It’s Odysseus. He woke up at sunrise and skipped breakfast to work,” Eurylochus said blandly, as if it was enough of an explanation.

    And the worst thing? To Polites, it was. Odysseus did this all the time. He got lost in his own mind, ignoring his need for food and drink even as his stomach pinched.

    “So, we’re joining forces against him,” Polites said; Eurylochus nodded. “And if that fails?”

    Eurylochus tilted his head back, pensively watching the clouds drift past above. “I pry his jaws open and you pour the food down his throat.”

     

    (Odysseus’ destructive tendencies continue; Polites and Eurylochus take it in stride.)
