Do you think Titan Odysseus looks any different from God Odysseus? Are there personalities any different?

How exactly do Diomedes, Penelope, and Odysseus go about discipline/raising Telemachus ?

Any fun facts about them as deities (Telemachus and Penelope)?

What are the reactions of those from the kingdom of Argos (if he somehow managed to convince them of dating a Titan and a goddess)?

Okay so I have a headcanon about titans that they are much more of an embodiment of the domain they represent. It basically goes

Chaos > ancient gods (Gaya, Nyx, Tartarus) > Titans > Gods embodying elements (Limos) > "Olympian gods" > minor gods > nymphs/spirits > demigods

The further it goes the more human they are. For example Limos as goddess of hunger embodied her element to the point where even Demeter couldn't get close to her, or how Helios is sometimes described as the sun itself which never happened to Apollo.

Odysseus as a titan of peace would cause his surroundings to become calm. He sometimes visits cities that were victims of a panic to calm them down. He also helps by visiting places that are meant to be sanctuaries like temples. If he would stay too long he could risk people acting like lotus eaters and not being willing to work so he makes sure to not stay in one place for more than a month.

Titan Ody looks more like a harpy than a human (he has harpy legs and his body is mostly covered in feathers with exception being his chest, neck, arms and face) he has a pair of wings on his back and on his head.

God Odysseus looks mostly like a man in his twenties with wings on his lower back and head.

Raising Telemachus is different depending if it's god Odysseus or titan one. If he's a god, he, Penelope and Dio would stay in Argos at first and make sure if Telemachus is a god or not (since gods do not always give birth to other gods). Telemachus would be raised among people of Argos until he develops his domain.

If Odysseus is a titan they would raise Telemachus in the fields that are seen as Ody's main domain. Diomedes would make sure to take Telemachus regularly to some cities to make sure that he would know more about people. (Since God Ody is easily startled by people and titan one can't stay with them too long without affecting them)

In both Odysseus would share stories with his baby and show him many places while Penelope would introduce Telemachus to many books, arts and crafts.

Ody is more relaxed about raising Telemachus. He is a little bit overprotective but at the same time he wants his baby to enjoy what the world has to offer. Penelope is a kind but stern parent. She is the one who established things like bedtime or will give him timeout for misbehaving. Diomedes is at first confused as hell because he knows nothing about raising kids but he gets better with time. He also was only recently granted godhood or he is about to so he is still figuring out all the god stuff while trying to raise a baby that can easily lift him.

With the people of Argos it's a funny story.

At first they obviously didn't believe him when he said he's a lover of a titan. But once Sthenelus realised that Dio isn't lying he's PANICKING! Everyone knows that Odysseus has been married for over a century. They are scared that his wife will punish Dio and the entire Argos for this situation. They want to build a temple for Penelope to beg her for forgiveness only to turn out that Penelope doesn't mind sharing her husband (especially since the first thing Ody did was to ask for his wife's permission to have a date with a pretty human.) Dio decides to stay human until he finds someone to replace him on the throne and Sthenelus is always sweating bullets when he feels the presence of the titan and the goddess.

How far do you think one can go down the rabbit hole of what ifs? Are there any two outlandish to consider in the world of Epic the musical?

It all depends on imagination and some boundaries. For example if the "what if" has literally NOTHING to do with characters and story you are basically writing something completely different.

Some of my favourite fics are a simple "what if" that is followed by a long chain of consequences. They are a lot of fun and it's nice to see authors considering a domino effect this big. (My Illiad fanfic started as a simple question that snowballed into something bigger)

For the same reason I'm not the biggest fan of stories that are just a copy and paste of the lyrics of Epic songs.

I can imagine Zeus giving cloud doggy to baby Ody because he wanted to prove to other gods that he's the best grandpa hahaha

Argos is best, Boi. Do you think Odysseus would still have him in this universe, or if he did, how did that come to be, and what's his role?

I don't know which one you are talking about???

In the eldritch au he has Argos as a companion and was a gift from Poseidon. (Odysseus is LONELY in this au. because of like reasons. *hids*)

in the god au. He has Argos who is a cloud doggie (gift from Zeus)

Aphrodite trying to set Ody up on another date with some very willing nymph/mortal:

How Aphrodite usually pranks/pranked Ody?

Trying to set him up on dates/situations where a romantic or sexual encounter might occur

She is SO invested in his love life like to an unreasonable level of OBSESSION

Titan or god Odysseus. What's your take on dioodypen? Like how would it go?

With Penelope it would probably be the same as I described before.

Dio would stumble upon them by accident. He would travel only to hear the soft sound of music.

At first he was just visiting them regularly but then he admitted that he started falling for them

They would start dating and Dio would most likely accept ambrosia.

Also when he tried to tell others nobody believed him that he dates a titan and goddess

Let me present to you "Sing, O Muse, of Agony"

A retelling of the Illiad and Odyssey with two key differences being that Odysseus is a woman in this story and that she is/was in a relationship with Hector of Troy.

You'll have to see for yourself how things will turn out for them.

Will you ever make a full fic of your deity!ody au?

Also I love your work! Thanks to you I am now obsessed with hector/odysseus!!

I might once I have a bigger idea for the entire story, because for now I just have an idea for a few smaller stories.

Thank you so much 😊 I'm happy you like my crack ship. In around a week or two a new chapter will be posted.

Oh my god wait. What if the blessings of the gods manifested physically? Like if a god takes an interest in you, EVERYONE is going to see it, for better or worse. And if you lose their favour? Everyone can see that, too

Jason with a peacock tail and feather-crest, both of which go faded and limp when he turns on Medea, so that they drag on the floor and get in the way

Pollux with eagle wings instead of arms, so Castor acts as his hands and that’s why they’re inseparable. When Castor dies and Pollux splits his immortality with him, they each get one arm and one wing, so one can’t fly without the other

Odysseus with a forked tongue and fangs—a subtle feature that he can hide when he needs to. When Athena feels like being helpful (like when she disguises him as a beggar) she’ll cast an illusion over it, but Penelope immediately recognises him by his lisp

When Athena gives Diomedes the blessing of seeing through the gods’ disguises, he also gets owl eyes and the ability to turn his head 180 degrees. This helps when Odysseus tries to stab him in the back on the Palladium heist

HERACLES WITH BULL HORNS. I have nothing to add I just think that sounds sick as hell

Helen grows beautiful golden feathers instead of hair. Nothing useful, just an obvious sign of her heritage that adds to her appeal to the suitors: whoever wins her hand gets to walk around with a physical symbol of Zeus’s favour

Atalanta with antlers that snap when she gets married, leaving jagged shards behind that won’t go blunt and can’t be sharpened down. She can have her husband, but he can’t touch her head without risking badly cutting himself. This can either be one final blessing or a curse depending on how consensual you interpret the marriage

Hector has pristine white raven wings, making him even more terrifying to the Achaeans, flying into battle like divine intervention, and a symbol of hope for the Trojans. Achilles plucks the feathers off his corpse, but they won’t stop growing back. Still, Achilles has a cloak made from them and wears it into battle, turning Troy’s symbol against them

Paris gets dove wings, but he tells everyone they’re too small to fly with because he’s a coward and doesn’t want to have the same responsibilities as Hector. Then he flies away from the duel with Menelaus in front of the entire army, and that’s when Troy finally loses what’s left of their respect for him

She's still getting used to being an aunt

How do any of Telemachus' parents handle the affections that other deities or mythical creatures might give to their son? I mean, considering Titan Ody's experiences with affection (that one goddes that cursed him) before he met Penelope and Diomedes .I'd imagine he'd be a little weary. How does Telemachus handle it himself?

What are their favorite foods? (godly food or otherwise)

Telemachus is rather blunt and unlike his father he doesn't mind openly rejecting someone. Ody also might create shelters for his baby and Diomedes and Penelope don't mind beating up annoying gods.
