    Frayed Feathers - A Winged Odysseus AU by

    Fandom EPIC - Jorge Rivera-Herrans (Albums)

    01 Jul 2025

    Summary

    There were rumors, quickly squashed by the island kingdom, that the Prince of Ithaca had grown wings on his feet when he was a boy. There were rumors that he had wings elsewhere too; on his back and behind his ears. They were squashed even quicker. Anyone who could get a look at the prince could see that his body was not adorned in feathers of any kind.

    None of them knew, and Ithaca’s royal family planned to keep it that way. Fearing that this problem of unknown origin (curse or yet another divine being’s fling with a mortal) would be seen as an insult to the gods and bring down their wrath. Odysseus has grown used to having to cut down or hide the extra appendages, but the struggle only grew when he was forced into the Trojan War.

    Now, with the war at its end and his fleet ready to return home, he only has one thing on his mind; getting back to his wife and son.

    An alternate universe where Hermes's relation to one particular Greek hero becomes a bit more prominent, and he suddenly has a much better reason to help Odysseus on his journey home.

    Summary

    Maybe he’s not the smartest, or the strongest, or the one everyone needs, but he can do this.

    “I’ll be your herald!” He exclaims loudly, leaving a trail of fire in his path as he flies down to oppose in front of the giant’s face. “He’s just a child.”

    AKA,

    Johnny Storm makes a sacrifice.

    Summary

    “Selkies steal your heart. Merrow drown your children. Sirens sink ships,” Ron whispered, eyes downcast now. “Everyone knows that. There’s a reason wizards aren’t big into going swimming and sailing.”

    Harry sank, wide-eyed, to the bottom of the tank, a massive lump in his throat. Hermione nudged Ron with her foot, tipping her head towards Harry reprovingly. Ron dragged his eyes up again and grimaced.

    “Not that… not that I think you’d do those things,” Ron said awkwardly, glancing at Hermione and then shuddering. “But… you could.”

    Harry shook his head, curling his nauseatingly flexible tail against the smooth walls of the tank. He hadn't meant to imperio Hermione - he'd never!

    Except, he had, hadn't he?

    Monster.
