patrochilles modern au ;
patroclus spent all day at work and achilles missed him terribly, so he prepared a surprise for him when he got back: an in-door picnic with movie date. he laid down a blanket and pillows, wine, figs, cheese and lots of delicious snacks that he knows pat loves as well as his favorite film, and waited for him in his pajamas. when pat arrived and saw the scene— everything laid down beautifully, candles, and achilles' eyes glowing with joy, he was so happy that he couldn't hide his tears. achilles embraced him like the very first time and the rest of the world stopped existing for a moment. achilles told him he would never let him go.
they were happy.

i have imagined a thousand lives that i would live when he is gone,
but none of them bore enough happiness
to make his death worth everything the prophecies spoke of.
ah, i thought,
there would be nothing left for me in this world.
i turn to my side and watch him sleep.
my love, i will follow you in death.
(“As for the goddess's answer, I did not care. I would have no need of her. I did not plan to live after he was gone.” - pg 188)

Achilles: I’m sick and tired of being called ‘mortal’ like, you don’t know that. Neither do I. I have never died even ONCE. Nothing has been proven yet. Stop making assumptions. It’s rude.
