#switch!hermes

1. Lee!Hermes, ler!Apollo: Both of them are having an argument, which happens frequently, and just as Hermes is winning, he somehow accidentally reminds Apollo of the time when Hermes stole his cattle as a baby. Apollo then uses that reminder to finally dish up some revenge for it.

2. Did this in an earlier post, but lee!Zeus, ler!clouds(?): In Neal Illustrator's 'God Games' animatic, the opening scene for Zeus shows him surrounded by cloud women. This triggered an idea, what if, on a random day, Zeus is doing exactly the same thing, but one of the other gods (maybe Hera or Hermes) is feeling cheeky, and discreetly commands the cloud women to start tkling him.

3. Lee!Odysseus, ler!Polyphemus: After killing off his favourite sheep (R.I.S Bill/ref), Polyphemus goes to lift Odysseus up in the air and have a bit of a rant about how it's time to 'drink his blood' or whatever, but Ody is persistent in getting out of the cyclops' hold. Whilst trying to recapture him, Polyphemus inadvertently grazes against a sensitive spot and Ody lets out a stupid squeaky noise. Being a younger cyclops with child-like ideals, Polyphemus gets *very* interested.

4. Switch!Hermes, switch!Tiresias: With a little bit of free time to spare, Hermes decides to visit a certain blind prophet in the Underworld. Tiresias, on the other hand, is not currently using his gift of foresight, and gets quite surprised when a stranger suddenly pinches at his sides from behind, revealing an embarrassing secret by accident. A secret that Hermes wishes to explore, even if it comes with the price of an unexpectedly playful prophet.

5. Lee!Polites, lers!Odysseus and Eurylochus: Shockingly, Polites isn't exactly as much of a morning person as one might expect, and the poor soldier ends up oversleeping one morning on the ship. Will the Captain let this slide? No, of course not, so Odysseus invites his second in command to both help wake their dear friend up, and offer a lesson in getting out of bed when he's supposed to.

6. Lee!Eurylochus, ler!Odysseus (and Polites iyw): Eurylochus worries a lot, that's an objective fact. Not just in necessary situations either, he would sometimes get concerned over the tiniest of issues, such as a soldier eating something that was slightly out of date. Sure, his care was appreciated, but it did get in the way of genuine fun occasionally. Luckily, Captain Odysseus is here to cure him of his worries, just for the next day or so. Plus, it had been getting annoying.

7. Lee!Odysseus, ler!Aeolus: Upon the top of Aeolus' sky island, Odysseus asks desperately for their aid in passing through a hefty storm. Of course, the mischievous wind spirit is happy to play along, conjuring up a wind bag for the man. Although, Aeolus doesn't really feel like passing down such a gift for *free*, no. To get what he wants, Odysseus needs to earn their favour through a small trial. Unfortunately, that trial just so happens to trick him into revealing a very silly weakness, which Aeolus all but lights up at.

8. Lee!Antinous, ler!Telemarketing: During the 'Little Wolf' fight, Athena grants Telemachus the gift of Quick Thought, so that he has a better chance of winning against Antinous. However, she cannot do much more than that, as he needs to be the one who stands up for himself. Although, with his sped up mindset, Telemachus can't help but try and think outside the box a bit. If Antinous was dead set on violence, then maybe the Prince could find a more surprising way around it, so that his opponent would get caught off guard. Of course, silliness and Antinous' public humiliation ensues.

9. Switch!Zeus, switch!Poseidon: Zeus, being the annoying little brother he is, pesters the hell out of Poseidon for losing against a mortal and getting beaten up. Eventually, the sea god can't take it anymore, lashing out against him. Obviously, they couldn't kill each other, but Poseidon had learnt another way to shut him up through the years. Unfortunately, the thunder god had also caught onto those little tricks.

10. Lees!Eurylochus and Odysseus, lers!Penelope and Ctimene: (either pre-war or an AU where Eury comes home alive) Not much to summarise, just two sisters in law attacking their husbands with tkly affection, may both women have mercy upon their giggly souls <3

11. Lee!Odysseus, ler!Penelope: After 20 long years of being apart, Ody develops major separation anxiety and practically clings to Penelope wherever she goes, or is at least in the same room. One night, our poor King is having difficulty sleeping, waking up every now and then just because he's afraid that his wife will somehow disappear between each short interval. Unable to sleep herself, because of his jolts, Penelope tries an old tactic to make him feel safer.
