||CONTEST WINNER|| Entry for the ReTold and ReGold contest "Reclaim Your Myths", based on the prompt by AmbassadorsLK "Lutcus Icarus". Icarus was the son of the Greek genius Daedalus whose tragic story became popular as the boy who flew too close to the sun. This is my take on his story. What really made him want to reach the sun? • This story contains lgbt related content and if it makes you uncomfortable, please avoid reading this work. Word count: 1690

"The wind in his hair felt nice. It was cooling against the sun and wax that had been burning his back. It reminded him of every moment he sat alone on the window ledge of Minos' tower, praying for some kind of deliverance. Yet, it also reminded him of every moment he sat on the window ledge next to Apollo; he remembered the feeling of Apollo's soft fingers running through his hair, he could remember the feeling of his head against Apollo's chest, listening to his heartbeat. In those moments, he almost felt human." * For a long time, Icarus thought he was alone. Until one night, the world showed him he wasn't. #1st place in the Hip Generation Awards #2nd place in the lgbt category of the Creator's Choice Awards 2020 #1st place in the Atlas Awards 2021 LGBTQ+ category
