#*later telemachus in his room is thinking back to the days events and previous sailing trips with his father*

[o3o-lapd-o3o]

(the wheeze i let out at that image (≧ヮ≦) odysseus will never let his son be sad again if he can help it)

*seconds after odysseus attached "new" bait to telemachus' line*

*the line starts pulling like mad*

telemachus: *overjoyed* i have a bite!

odysseus: *internally smirking at poseidon but outwardly smiling at his son*

odysseus: reel it in son! let's see what you got!

*after a bit of wrestling the line (and the tiniest of help from his father) telemachus manages to pull up a huge sea fish*

telemachus: *amazed* a tuna!

odysseus: not just any tuna, a bluefin! well done son! what beast you have caught.

telemachus: *full of joy at his father's pride & praise*

odysseus: would you like to try again?

telemachus: *full of determination* yeah, lets do it!

*after many more catches later*

telemachus: *looking at their (huge) haul* we have caught enough to feed not only us, but i believe the people of ithaca too!

odysseus: that sounds like a plan

odysseus: i'm sure we even have enough to sell or trade

telemachus: *happy but still sighs* the only shame is we didn't catch a swordfish, it is mother's favou-

*a giant splash is heard and suddenly a giant swordfish is thrown lands on the deck from the sea*

telemachus: -rite

telemachus: *blinking in disbelief* how did that get ther-

odysseus: *knows exactly how that got there*

odysseus: *ready to put his silver tongue to use again*

odysseus: *feigning shock* -how lucky! i have heard of them leaping out from the sea before! but to leap and land on our ship!

odysseus: let us put it with the others son, and then we shall set a course for home.

telemachus: *looking at his father*

telemachus: *looking back at the sea from where the swordfish came from*

telemachus: *looking back at his father and then smiling like he's figured something out* okay!

*after the events of the odyssey*

*telemachus and odysseus walking down to the docks, after odysseus said he'd go sailing with his son*

(listen the man had missed 20 years of his son's life, he could ask ody to dress in drag & do the hula and odysseus would already be shouting "LUAU" in a grass skirt before tele finished his sentence)

telemachus: i'm so excite- *looks ahead*

telemachus: *stops walking* oh no *sad noises*

odysseus: *still walking* what's wrong son?

telemachus: *points to the sea beyond ithaca's shores* poseidon must be angry today, look at the storm in the distance

odysseus: *looks ahead but without worry on his face* no need to worry, we can still go sailing, follow me

telemachus: *confused but follows his dad*

*both make it to the docks*

odysseus: you get started, i've just got something to do & then i'll join you on the ship

*telemachus hops on the ship and odysseus turns to face the sea*

odysseus: *red eyes activate* i'm. going. sailing. with . my. son.

*the sea storm dissipates in record speed*

odysseus: good.

odysseus: *red eyes deactivate*

odysseus: *turns to telemachus smiling like nothing happened* shall we go then?

telemachus: *happy but very confused*

telemachus: *mumbling to himself*what just happened?
