Warrior Penelope AU

I had in mind for this that everyone is the same for the exception of Odysseus and Penelope, Eurylocus and Ctimene, and Athena and Ares.

So when Penelope goes to Circe’s island, Done For doesn’t happen because all Penelope needs to do is take off her helmet to reveal she’s not a man and Circe immediately loses her hostility, so Penelope doesn’t need to win Circe over like Odysseus did; Circe doesn’t argue with beautiful women

There Are Other Ways probably happens but not bc Circe is trying to trick Penelope or lower her defenses, she just wants to hit

SO! Just yesterday I read this expression: In ancient Greece, there was a tradition that if a man wanted to propose marriage to a woman, he would throw her an apple, and the offer was considered accepted if the woman caught it Why don't I make headcanons based on this? Let's go!!

eurymene: I should point out that, in my opinion, Ctimene received the same training as Odysseus. For prevention. So then Eurylochus threw her an apple; Ctimene caught it. . . and throw the apple back in Eury's hands reflexively. Because of this, it looked like Ctimene wanted to propose marriage to Eurylochus, not the other way around. Actually, it didn't seem like he was not happy of that. opypen: Odysseus work VERY HARD for this moment. Nothing could wrong, not today. And all was just great! Ody propose marriage in beautiful garden, under the olive tree where they first met. Before this he sprinkled hawthorn and rose petals on the road and persuaded the servants to send Penelope here. Penelope came! Ody says very cute and full of love speech. He is going to throw the apple but Penelope says turn it to him. It turns out that a heart has already been cut out on the apple. How the Spartan Princess could not knew about what is happened in her own palace? Although later they threw the apple anyway. Circe x Hermes: Circe perfectly caught the apple and threw it back in Hermes's face. The messenger, in his turn, caught the apple with his mouth and bit a little from it. She was aiming at him, guys. Circelope: Circe baked an apple pie, where all apples were like hearts. After that she asks Penelope to cut the pie into pieces. And how Penelope was happy when she figured this out! It was so cute for her. She even gave Circe a restrained but full of love kiss on her lips. (Actually, Circe was concerned about whether Penelope would guess it or not.) Calypso x Polites: Calypso learnt a lot about Ithacan culture and society rules from Polites, who was very excited about teaching her everything. She still was awkward, but she was really trying to do things right, to do things like someone who wasn't living on an isolated island alone with no opportunity to leave. So she decided to propose a marriage to her lover, like he would propose marriage to her. But there was a little nuance. She didn't know what before the "throw apple thing" there must be some signs about it or the right atmosphere. Because of this, Calypso had to explain to Polites that she had not just offered him an apple but had asked him to marry her. Antinous x Odysseus: (TW | CW: A hint of an unhealthy relationship) Odysseus shot from his old bow with an arrow, where there had been a very red apple. And, actually, it stuck strangely close to Antinous's head. . . Hermes x Tiresias: Hermes was creative about such special events for both of them. But. . . no one could force him to reject doing some funny things, right? Right. So he has found a two-headed snake that was around the apple. Pretty good joke, isn't it? The one thing Hermes didn't know was what Tiresias already knew: what Hermes wanted to do in the future. And he doesn't appreciate this joke ( and he didn't catch the apple or snakes because. . . because he is blind ).

I hope you enjoyed it! I've been working very hard on this, so I expect your positive and strong reaction:)
