So, has god odysseus (Poseidon son) met any of Poseidon's other children?
Most likely. He is probably aware of most but he only meets those he sees as not too aggressive. For that reason he isn't interested in meeting younger Cyclops. He met Bellerophon and they were rather chill together.
Ody doesn't really seek them but if he stumbles upon them he will always spend an hour or two talking or playing games.
At the same time I want to say "I'm sorry" and "Aww, thank you" because it means I'm a capable writer hahaha
I'm currently working on a pretty big story based on Illiad and Odyssey but I don't want to share publicly any details until I have enough of it planned out. You can ask privately about it if you want <3
What if Odysseus died instead of Achilles. Wouldn't that be fucked up
Like Patroclus dies, and then he kills Hector, and then his dad dies. He now has three corpses in his tent. And Priam comes to beg for Hector's corpse and tells him to think of his father. But his father is right there. He's dead. Your son killed my father.
So how exactly do god pregnancies work? And how different is they're aging process compared to humans when they're born? For someone like Penelope who was human before then turned into a goddess I imagine this might be quite confusing for her.
It mostly depends on god and what form they have when "trying for the baby". That's why Helen was born from an egg.
If they take the shape of the person it means it will be a normal human pregnancy. (For example what happened to Hermes and Dionysus).
Things get complicated when it's between gods/titans/inhuman creatures. Then the pregnancy can be something as abstract as a child simply appearing as a representation of their love (for example Anteros) or a child might skip the entire pregnancy or process of baby making when it embodies some emotions or past grudges (Hephaestus, Athena, Erechtheus, Ovids' Pegasus). Sometimes it might even be something very abstract (Erechtheus once again), very simple or a little confusing.
Penelope should not be too worried. Ody isn't too freaky so the weirdest thing that might happen is Penelope laying an egg.
When the child is born it mostly depends on if it's going to inherit the godhood. It doesn't always happen, even with children of two gods. If the child inherits the godhood it will quicker grow from newborn to child (around twice as fast usually - Hermes is exemption , not a rule)
Gods that are born normally are usually just kids that grow up without anything too weird. Their strength isn't usually the problem since if their parents are gods it shouldn't bring them trouble.
I thought of Dio who would show up later (after Ody and Menelaus would be married for at least a few years)
It could be extra funny if it happened after Diomedes was crowned.
Imagine Menelaus arriving in Argos with his wife only to see this young alpha being instantly smitten with his omega.
Odysseus would be oblivious to Dio's advances meanwhile Menelaus would wrap himself around Ody and grow any time Dio is (for his liking) too close to the queen of Ithaca.
Also I would not be shocked if Menelaus was a type of person who respected Ody as a strategist and a wise queen (mostly thanks to Athena) but at the same time he would panic seeing her having a problem with reaching for something from a high shelf or at the chance of her possibly being left alone with an alpha that isn't her family hahaha
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.
Diomedes and Menelaus spent the Trojan War fighting over their mutual custody Work Wife Odysseus
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.
Poseidon just being a jealous little pretty fish God, owww, you want kisses too cutie thing? *Smooch smooch in forehead and cheeks*
—🌺🦊
Yeah no, you got the wrong Poseidon to smooch and even got him angry, you mistook my friend's one with mine😭
But yeah he does get jealous and rightfully mad if you worship others and you mistake him for others
Titan Odysseus you said that he could create sanctuaries that couldn't be easily accessed by others. How often did he use those and what was the reason he used them for?
He uses them mostly to make sure people won't be accidentally affected by his presence. He also makes them to protect people that he witnessed being chased by gods, satyrs etc.
He also used to make those when having a date with a lover so they would not be spotted together by some strangers.
He doesn't use them too often. Just when he feels it's needed.
how i imagine poseidon (who i believe can feel when people invoke not only his name but the ocean as well) reacted to hearing antinous plotting to kill telemachus and dump his body (parts) in the ocean
*up on olympus in apollo's infirmary*
poseidon: *recovering and enjoying peace after athena had left a day ago*
poseidon: *to himself* ahh finally some peac-
poseidon: *feels someone invoking the ocean*
poseidon: *focusing on who's saying it* who on gaia is...is that coming from ithaca...
poseidon: wait- ITHACA?!?
poseidon: *fully focuses now*
antinous: *in the ithacan palace*
antinous: cut him down into tiny pieces...
poseidon: *listening in full now* cut wh-
antinous: ...when the crown wonders where the prince is-
poseidon: the prince? yoU MEAN ODYSSEUS' SON?
antinous: only the ocean and i will know!
poseidon: *in full panic mode* OCEAN?!
poseidon: *now attempting to get out of bed in panic* HADES NO, I AM NOT INVOLVED WITH THIS I-
apollo: *coming to check on his uncle after hearing him shout*
apollo: uncle wh- *sees poseidon attempting to get out of bed*
apollo: *hurrying over to get him back in bed*
apollo: uncle calm down! you're gonna rip your stitches!
Winged Ody anybody?
What if god Odysseus was the son of Poseidon? How much would that would change in Ody's life?
A LOT would change. Poseidon would be a helicopter parent to his son. Ody as a god of safety would focus on assisting sailors and shipwrecked people, but Poseidon would punish any man who tries to take advantage of his innocent son.
Ody would live on a hard to reach island and any nymph/god/siren/etc that would potentially inhabit it would have to be approved by Poseidon.
The reason why is because Ody is due to living near the sea he always helped people lost there but sadly some sailors out of desperation would want to do unspeakable to the beautiful young looking man with wings.
Odysseus would have wings similar to a seagull or albatross. He is also more sheltered so he relies on stories shared by people to know more about the world.
It is almost like a currency to him. You can ask him a favour and he will accept if you in exchange tell his an interesting story that he didn't hear before.
Odysseus would meet Penelope when she was sailing with her family and she accidentally fell overboard during a storm. He helped her and took her to his island because she had no idea how to explain the Ody location of Sparta. So they would spend a few days together and at night Ody was flying and trying to locate her home.
Once he did it he took her to safety. They fell in love and Ody promised to visit her but also he warned her to not try to seek him or Poseidon might punish her.
He was visiting her once a week but her cousins started to suggest that he just has another lover on his island. She didn't believe them but once her father wanted to marry her off she decided to risk everything and swim to Odysseus.
Poseidon was about to strike her with his trident but Ody shielded her with his wings. Penelope seeing it started to worry and tried to help Ody despite being in danger. Poseidon was impressed and allowed her to be with his son but she wasn't allowed to invite her family over. (There would be an additional "myth" about that). She became a goddess once she reached her twenties so she would be in a similar "age" as Odysseus.
There would be a story where Jason and Argonauts accidentally landed on Ody's island where the young god helped them and told them that they can take any food but they can't steal any treasures or stay for longer than two nights. They at first agreed but one of them got fascinated by pearl jewelry and stole a necklace. Also Jason forgot that they were there already for a day when Ody explained the rules and because of it they stayed for a day too long. Because of it they stumbled upon angry Poseidon who assumed that they wanted to hurt his son. They promised that they didn't touch him but Poseidon told them that he will only believe them if the thief who stole the necklace reveals himself and experiences a proper punishment. At first they wanted to blame Heracles since he would most likely survive it but then even started claiming to be the thief. Impressed Poseidon allowed them to go but as a punishment he moved their boat so their journey would take longer than needed.
