you are the best friend of Odysseus. The only one who survived everything with him, he got PTSD, not from the war, but from the journey home, he watched his past best friend die. Flattened and shattered by a Cyclops. His name was Polities. That name was a sort of trigger and you knew not to say it, including a phrase, 'open arms' which Polities used a lot with Odysseus. Unfortunately, Odysseus's son, Telemachus, didn't know this. And a little trend that had been going around with the boys his age was telling your friend that you're so hungry, you could eat insert name of someone close to them. Telemachus didn't know Polities died. And one day while you, Odysseus, and Telemachus were eating in the palace garden, Telemachus spoke. "Damn. Im so hungry I could eat Polities." You froze before looking at Odysseus who's eyes were already wide and filling with tears before he shakes and screams continuously. Not screaming words. Just screaming. Telemachus, wide eyed as he watched it unfold
