Augusnippets Day 3: Thunderstorm
Fandom: EPIC/The Odyssey
Summary: When Telemachus was ten years old, thunderstorms became a common thing in Ithaca. He got used to them. As he walks around the palace, he learns that Odysseus had become terrified of them.
Thunderstorms were a normal thing for Ithaca. Telemachus started to notice more of them when he was 10 years old. He used to fear them. Now he sits by the window and watched with lightning and closes his eyes as he listens thunder and the rain.
It was a stormy night when the boy learned his father was scared of thunderstorms. Penelope has gone to visit Ctimene; someone Odysseus wasn't ready to see again after telling her about Eurylochus.
Listening to the storm, the prince walked around the halls of the palace like he's done since he was young. Stopping in front of his mother and father's room, he felt as if he should go inside.
Without knocking, Telemachus opened the door. Inside Odysseus sat in his bed. His sword was in his hands and his knees were to his chest.
"Dad? Are you okay?" Telemachus asked.
"They're coming." Odysseus said, his voice shaking.
Walking more inside the room, Telemachus approached his father. Odysseus jumped back, surprised by the movement. "who's coming?"
"The Gods." The king said, whispering. "They have come for me."
"It's just a thunderstorm." Telemachus approached his mother's bed and tried to sit down.
Odysseus swung his sword at his son.
"Dad, it's okay. Can you put the sword down?"
After a moment, Odysseus realized what he had done and pulled his sword away for his son. "I'm sorry." As he started to cry, Telemachus sat down with him.
"It's okay. Can I see that?" He gestured to the sword in his father's hands.
Nodding, Odysseus handed it to him. Then Telemachus put it down beside the bed. "The Gods won't get you here. I promise."
"You can't guarantee they won't." The king said softly.
"True, but it will be okay."
"Are you sure?"
"As sure as I can be. I'll be right here, okay? I'm not going anywhere."
Telemachus remembered what it felt like to be scared of thunder when he was little. Now his father was scared of it for a very different reason. Still, he knew that it was a hard thing to be afraid of. Only the gods can control thunderstorms after all.
"Okay." Pudding his knees back down onto the bed, Odysseus tied to relax.
"You know, I used to be afraid of thunderstorms too. I got pretty used to them. No one is going to hurt you here. You're home."
"I'm home." Odysseus repeated.
"Maybe try to sleep?"
"Yeah." Laying down, Odysseus closed his eyes. Telemachus went and sat by the rocking chair that was by a window.
"Thank you son. I love you"
"I love you too, Dad."
I hate when I say I can hear lightning and people never fail to respond with “it’s thunder, not lightning :/“
Thunder is the sound of lightning!
When you hear a cow somewhere you don’t say “oh, I hear mooing” do you?
“Laxus Dreyar, use thunderbolt lmao”

This one is meh, though I like the general composition with the dragon being struck by lightning. Everything I gets kinda lost in this one though.

[Image ID: A traditional drawing of the artist's character, Lillian, that has been slightly edited. She can only be seen from the shoulders up. Lillian is a young transgender Black girl with bright shoulder-length red dreads with dark brown roots. It has fallen out of its usual half-up half-down hairstyle. She wears a magenta shirt and blue denim jacket. Facing forwards, she has a somewhat empty gaze and looks vengeful. Electricity surrounds her face and some of her dreads are suspended in mid air from the shock. She is looking at a point beyond the viewer. w/.End ID]
I got second place at the recent art show, and won ten dollars.
~Even if you leave me, you won't really be gone. I'll find you in the raindrops you made me fall in love with again. I'll hear you in the thunder that rolls deep like your voice. I may even see your face in the flash of lightning because that's just how fast you entered my life and then left. I will find you over and over again in the storms, just like you found me in my own.~

I made this my new oc look so really cool
Once in a while Two people meet Seemingly for no reason They just pass on the street Suddenly thunder, showers everywhere Who can explain the thunder and rain But there’s something in the air
