The Song of Achilles - Madeline Miller+1

a lesson in love

by liionne

"You have to go." Achilles says, and his hands are on Patroclus' chest, but they aren't pushing. No- he's doing a lot of things, but he's not pushing. He's memorising the feeling of smooth skin beneath his hands, and he's counting the pulse that thuds beneath the right, committing that to memory too. He's feeling the rise and fall of his best friend's chest - best friend, boyfriend, lover, whatever; they all feel like synonyms now - and he's meeting those dark brown eyes with his own. "If my mother catches you here she'll kill you." "I know." Patroclus murmurs, but he makes no move to go.

by astrolesbian

It’s not that Patroclus somehow has not noticed that his new favorite coffee shop seemed to only hire possible models, but, well. There’s a thin line between noticing and admiring a person’s looks and being creepy about it.   (aka the very, very cliche coffee shop au.)

The Song of Achilles - Madeline Miller

tell me again

by jellybabiestomanual

“How does that work? Achilles is so far out of his league and he can’t even see it.” “I don’t get it. It must suck to date a blind kid, and Pat’s not even hot.”     They’d probably thought they were being quiet, but Patroclus is, after all, blind. His hearing compensates. Or, "blind Patroclus feeling insecure because someone said he’s so plain while Achilles looks heavenly, so Achilles makes a point to describe everything that he loves about Pat’s appearance, in vivid detail, in the fashion of the 'tell me again' scene."

by scatteringmyashes

Patroclus has no interest in the arena, though he's been challenged many times. His fighting days are over and that is fine with him. The other occupants of Elysium are intent on changing that. Or: Five Times Patroclus Was Challenged And The One Time Someone Accepted

Patroclus the Parchment Pusher

by Soncasong

Even after getting his Achilles back, Patroclus could still not help but want more. And thus began his employment as a parchment pusher in the House of Hades, and his interactions with the various colorful entities that inhabited the abode. They probably should not have told him about the betting pool.

Lux Aeterna

by Achilltatos

Pat never bothers to call himself special; He’s borderline at schoolwork and may be outstanding at biology, but his life is dull in comparison with a boy that keeps popping up in his life, the much admired and arrogant Achilles. Pat would ignore him if it weren't for the weird feeling of déjà vus and the random words popping into his head whenever they cross paths, and he's beginning to think there might be more to this than he first thought. (Patrochilles Reincarnation AU, where Achilles and Pat are allowed to keep their names and appearances in exchange for their memories on earth. At least, that was the plan)

Recognition

by captainskellington

Patroclus didn’t need to ask who “he” was, he knew full well. He’d been living for this day for eight years now, some twisted cocktail of hope and dread seeping through his body every time he thought of it, which was often. He was back. He was back.

by pomdu

"And we realized we were in love—when exactly?" At this, Achilles looked up, and Patroclus was probably imagining it, but his face had turned pinker. "I don't know. You choose." - Patroclus and Achilles go to Greece under the guise of a couple to please Achilles' grandparents. You know the drill.

The Boy That Was Promised

by AzulDemon

Patroclus is not the Chosen One; he is not even sure he belongs in this world half the time. He knows the Chosen One and he's a boy just like himself—except he’s golden and perfect, he’s the star Quidditch player and he's the most powerful and gifted wizard in history. He’s destined to save all of magic someday. Patroclus kind of wants to hate him but Achilles makes it impossible.The Harry Potter and Song of Achilles mashup you never knew you wanted (hopefully).
