    Summary

    Hindsight often brought things into perspective. Shane believed that if he were ever handed the keys to a time machine, he wouldn’t change anything about his life. But now that he was metaphorically sitting in the driver’s seat, keys in the ignition, he realized that was a fucking lie.

    or

    Shane Hollander and Ilya Rozanov find themselves back in 2017.

    Summary

    The man flung the door open with a flourish, turning to the girls with a huge, toothy smile.

    “Good morning!” He announced.

    Robin died a bit inside, she had no energy for this today. She fixed her face.

    “Hello, how are you?”

    “Good! I am good,” said this new man, warmly. Robin hadn’t seen him in here before. He was quite a bit taller than her, a few mousy brown curls escaping out under his beanie. Or toque, as the Canadians called them. Which she wasn’t sure this man was, as a thick accent clung to his words spoken so far. He was pale with a smattering of moles around his face, wide blue eyes taking in the offerings of the shop. Maybe European?

    Summary

    “I’m injured! I’m supposed to be resting!” Hollander protested, which would have been more effective if anyone at all was asking him to stand up.
    “Pretty sure warming up Shane Hollandbear’s heart and making a wish isn’t putting any strain on your ankle,” Boodram pointed out.

    -

    When Shane misses a few away games due to a minor injury, the Centaurs take him to Build-A-Bear to make Ilya a Shane bear so he'll be less unbearable (pun unintended) during the roadtrip. It absolutely makes the employee's day.

    Summary

    “Odysseus.” Odysseus did not startle. He also did not greet Diomedes despite having known of his approach. “Odysseus?”

    Perhaps this was some sort of battle related trauma. Diomedes ended up sitting down besides Odysseus and let his shoulder bump against the sullen King. “Talk to me, friend.”

    “...About what?”

    “What’s going on? Polites is concerned, so are your men. Was it the blood? Or the men who fell? Rest assured, friend, none of yours fell today.”

    “Do you think King Sisyphus fights against his punishment? Do you think the Fates would allow him, if he did?”

    Flinching, Diomedes observed the change in Odysseus’ eyes. Instead of the colour of the sea, Odysseus’ eyes were taken over by a hue of red– only noticeable when observed in a certain angle but definitely present. Diomedes knew what caused a hue of red like that.

    Odysseus had been touched by Ares’ Rage.

    —---

    In which Odysseus is dropped back in time into the Trojan War and chooses to mess with everyone until it gets him killed or gets him back to Penelope. Others take notice.

    Or, Odysseus is soooo done.
