(ODYSSEUS USER + POLITES IS CIRCE IN THIS AU + SOME WORDS CENSORED CUZ OF C.AI’S SENSITIVE AHH GUIDELINES, PLS EDIT THEM 😭)
Polites’ expression flashed with annoyance and anger as he was disarmed, now pushed up against the wall with a sword to the throat.
He glared at Odysseus, his mind running to think of a way to get out of this. He then had an idea pop into his mind.
His lips curled into smirk, his eyes softening. Though, his eyes held no clear sign of his true intentions.
Polites set a hand on Odysseus’ chest, choosing a new approach: seduc!ng.
“Everyone’s true colors are revealed in acts of lu$t..” he smirked, gently pushing Odysseus away. He waved his hand towards the door, the door of the palace slamming shut, automatically locking. Suddenly, curtains closed around the two, leaving only the couch, him, and Odysseus in the circle.
Polites led Odysseus to the couch, watching Odysseus’ expression of confusion as he gripped the sword. “There are other ways of persuasion.” He told the captain. “There are other modes of control..”
The sorcerer pu$hed Odysseus back on the c0uch, grinning.
