Summary
Greece is so 3,OOO years ago. The Gods of Olympus have moved on with the times, leaving behind their togas and impractical marble temples for fashionable Armani suits, high couture dresses, and sophisticated high-rises. The world's ritziest apartment building, The Lito, has just opened its doors; and the residents are more than just rich and famous -- they're immortal, too. When you've literally seen everything and have limitless power, how do you pass the days? If you're the Gods of Olympus, you squabble with the relatives, unleash your wiles on the local mortals, cast some unpredictable spells, and look damn. fine. doing it. Hotel Babylon ain't got shit on The Lito.

Bookmarker's Notes
"What spoils your chances?" he asked. She was no Helen (but Odysseus had realised fairly swiftly that it would be no picnic to be married to Helen), but she was lovely. It might be counted against her that she was quick-witted and quicker-tongued, for no man wanted a wife who was smarter than he was, but - she wasn't even looking at him.
"My father," she said, her voice weary. "He says no man shall marry me unless that man can race him and win."
Odysseus considered this. "Isn't your father Icarius? The champion runner?"
"Yes." She sighed, looking so dejected that Odysseus had to restrain himself from trying to tickle her.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA, I love Penelope so much, and I love her back-and-forth with Odysseus so much, and I love the way athousandwinds handles Odysseus' relationship with Athena, and this is so my personal canon.
