The contest with Odyssey’s Bow

«Then, I’ll marry the one who offers most.

The man marked out by fate, can grip and string the bow with ease

And shoot an arrow through all 12 axes,

Shall become my husband…»

Inspired by the myth about Odyssey’s Bow for sasodei week 2023. Basically it tells us how Penelope, led by the goddess Athena, decides there will be a contest between the suitors, who can potentially become her husband. She actually didn’t want to do that because she loved Odyssey, but this guy was totally gone for a Trojan War and might’ve been pretty much dead. So Penelope kind of wanted to trick everybody by giving contestants Odysseus's bow and making them shoot an arrow through twelve axes. However! One of the unknown warriors manage to do that, and what a surprise when appears, that unknown warrior is (spoiler alert) Odyssey himself coming back from war, with Zeuses buff.

In which Sasori and Deidara finally comes to an agreement.

There’s an intrinsic difference, though. They never have and never will be normal. Settled deep in the crooked smirk that’s always pulled across Deidara’s lips, or the manic look that shines in Sasori’s eyes, they’ve separated themselves. “We have dreams, friends, and places that we can call home, hm,” Deidara continues. “We’re just people.”

Happy @sasodeiweek ! I haven’t written anything for Naruto in SO LONG but I’ve been revisiting my OG pairings and I love these two. Excited to throw some one-shots out there for the week! :)
