In Ancient Greece, 325 BCE, a 19 almost 20 year old from a small town a little ways from Athens starts his journey of education and enlightenment. Used to his daily routine of making his way to The Academy during the week and running around town, working with his parents in their small market on the weekend, the idea of traveling abroad to gain knowledge intrigues him and terrifies him, but he's willing to take on these new challenges.
Though he is shy, he has many aspirations. These dreams, fueled by wonder, knowledge, and even love, inspire him to take small steps in making a life for himself. However, unlike many in Greece, He's not religiously inclined and doesn't believe in or worship the gods of the Greeks. The stories of the gods fascinate him, and he has his favorite stories, but due to his focus in life and his monotheistic background, he doesn't live or learn according to the practices or beliefs of the Greeks.
Little did he know that even if he never came to believe what his fellow Greeks believed, that he would learn about things that would change his life forever. Friendship, love, and a new, profound, transcendent understanding of self becomes a story of an untold series of events that change the way we view every legend we've ever been taught.

Temple of two
There is a whisper of a Greek legend-the tale of Icarus, a man who fashioned wings from delicate wax and brilliant feathers. With these, he dared to become the first human to ever taste the freedom of the sky. He flew. And as he soared, he saw the Sun-not as a distant star, but as a blinding, glorious presence. The man who had become the first to see the sun this close fell in love with it, utterly unaware of his own tragic destiny. It was a destiny that, in its cruel symmetry, always makes the impossible fall in love with possibility. He flew higher still, intoxicated by the light, until the Sun's fierce, passionate heat began to melt the wax binding his feathers. He plunged, a beautiful and broken spectacle, from the sky. But here is the truth, the bitter twist: I can't blame the Sun for his death. It was the wax that betrayed him, melting under a heat that is, after all, simply common to everything. And so it is with Pranvijay's love for Mehboob. His devotion became his wax wings, allowing him to fly too close to a person-a light-that was simply available to all. Mehboob's warmth was not meant just for him, and in his singular pursuit, Pranvijay became consumed. It wasn't Pranvijay who was flawed; it was the sheer, destructive magnitude of his love that led to his fall.Complete
MYTH-TAKEN IDENTITY - a 2025 ONC novella
An introverted, recluse gamer accidentally finds out she's the reincarnation of a Greek god/goddess, and is stuck in a world-altering time-loop until she figures out WHICH god/goddess she's destined to become. ***** Ophelia Jones is...well, she's nothing. She asks for nothing. She WANTS nothing. Just to stay in her dark basement-apartment, do her mindless data-entering job by day, play video games by night. She refuses to participate in a real social life, and won't read the news or be active in the LGTBQIA+ scene that she belongs in. No, Ophelia is done giving a sh**. She'd rather live in her fantasy world, ignoring the real world around her. That is, until a mysterious puddle surfaces in her backyard, and she jokingly wonders if it'll be a portal to another world, someplace better - and she falls into it. Oh, she's transported to a new world, all right -- but not a parallel world or an alternate universe. She's transported to the past; into mythology, specifically. Greek mythology, to be even more exact. Because according to Alfie, her "spiritual guide", she's a reincarnated god or goddess, and has to figure out who. Problem? SHE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT GREEK MYTHOLOGY. ONC prompts 37 + 5Complete
The Gods Have Failed Me, Maybe Heroes Won't. Right?
You would never think that the Greek Gods would finally come down from Mount Olympus to live like any other human, and you wouldn't think they would love humans and have kids too. Right? Maybe you would have, maybe not. Well, they have. Izuku is the son of Hades, and he is quirkless. But that doesn't mean he's not without a quirk. Around the age of 4 Izuku was introduced into the spirit realm, as well as the realm for the gods. Of course, this leads to many, many, problems. Most gods and spirits don't like that he is the son of Hades, but he tries to make his own path, the path of a hero. Izuku helps spirits when he can, and while he is medically quirkless that doesn't deter him from becoming a hero without his father's power, but that doesn't work out as he thought. ----~~~---- I DO NOT OWN MY HERO ACADEMIA, I ONLY OWN THE PLOT. This was originally posted to AO3 (under the same name)for a secret Santa, but I'm posting it here.Complete

Greece Odyssey
**Book Summary: Greece Odyssey** Amid the tranquil coastal village of Elysia, a young fisherman named Leonidas dreams of adventure beyond the shimmering horizon. Fate, however, has designs greater than his dreams. When the muse Calliope descends from Olympus, draped in a cloak woven from the light of the stars, she reveals to Leonidas his role in an age-old prophecy-one that speaks of a mortal who will stand against the turbulent tides of godly strife. Guided by Calliope's celestial wisdom, Leonidas embarks on a treacherous odyssey to secure the blessings of the gods. His journey tests his mettle and resolve as he faces mythical beasts, cunning adversaries, and his own inner demons. Along the way, he crosses paths with the likes of Athena, Hermes, Medusa, Circe, and more, each encounter leaving an indelible mark on his soul. As Leonidas' legend grows, so too does the tumult among the gods of Olympus. Zeus, seated atop the divine pantheon, observes the mortal's progress with a mixture of trepidation and intrigue. In a climactic assembly of the gods, a decision is reached that will forever alter the fate of both realms-a decision that beckons Leonidas toward an ultimate confrontation. Leonidas' quest culminates in a cataclysmic clash of gods and titans, where the threads of fate converge and diverge with every heartbeat. As the young hero confronts his own limits, he must also confront the malevolent deity who has manipulated the very fabric of existence. With courage forged in the crucible of trials, Leonidas rises to a destiny beyond imagination. In a world where the divine and mortal realms intersect, where power and virtue collide, "Echoes of Olympus" weaves an epic tapestry of heroism, sacrifice, and the unbreakable ties between humanity and the gods. As the constellations blaze overhead, the story's echoes resonate through time, a reminder that the echo of one mortal's valor can ripple across the cosmos, forever shaping the worldComplete
THE REAPER || BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA FANFIC ||
(Please note that this book was written in 2018-2020 and very badly edited/written lol) It's pouring in Musutafu, and crowds of people are seen with umbrellas all in different colours but in the middle of them stands a girl who has no umbrella or shelter to keep her protected from the rain... People didn't even notice the poor girl since they all minded their own business. -------------------- The girl known as Aya Kurosawa, was a Greek goddess from above but only to be banished by Zeus himself. Now she roams the world that's filled with human beings with quirks. Some say she reminds them of death because of her history. She was in many wars before quirks were even manifested for the first time, in other words- she's quite old. Her being/quirk is known as 'Athena, the goddess of war and archangels', she shifts her appearance into a 20-year-old form to fool people. Until this very day, she tracks down villains and criminals all around the world and takes them into custody- only to be judged for their crimes by her. Through all the years she's been on earth she got the name - "The Grim Reaper" Many don't know if she's a villain or a hero... but they know she's protecting them from danger... --------------- Now she's living in Musutafu, which is protected by the no. 1 hero, All Might, who she knew due to her helping him with his training and his studies at U.A. She was a teacher back then, and the students and teachers acknowledged her for her knowledge and wisdom. --------------- She was leaving a junior high and saw a burned notebook falling out a window that was followed by a certain green-haired boy who feared for his life. She flew up and saved them both, but she didn't notice a hot-tempered boy who was shocked when he saw her... Will these two boys see her at U.A. or won't they? ------------------------------- I don't own 'Boku no hero academia' or the pics and videos. They belong to their respectful owners. I only own my character(s).Complete
𝒟𝒾𝓋𝒾𝓃𝒾𝓉𝓎/-/FEM-READER X GREEK MYTHOLOGY/-/
The stories of the past always fascinated you. Particularly, stories about how ancient people saw the world, how they interpreted what was happening and why. This is what led you to Greek mythology. Now, you never believed in Greek mythology, or any religions to be honest. But honoring it brought comfort to you. Or maybe it was just doing weird rituals, to be honest. You were still doing weird rituals before you got into mythology. But either way, this is what led you to the incident. One moment, you are worshiping your wizard Furby that you jokingly call "The Oracle", and the next you find yourself in Mount. Olympus, home of the gods. A/N: I don't usually write straight people so we'll see how long it takes before I cave and Y/N starts crushing on all the goddesses
