— Beato Apollon, you know I am a righteous man.. // Pinned Post

Hello, I am Hyrcanus Apollontiades (Ὑρκανὸς Ἀπολλωντιάδης), prince of the city Phanonion (Φανώνιον); son of the Queen Nesaea, who is related to the Trojan royal family by being born of King Priam and Queen Hecuba... and I am henceforth related to all of the Trojans' royal family. (Yes, including Teucer, by all technical means).

My 'pronouns' are he/him... I think. It/its also work, I suppose. I'm a male, as far as I'm aware.

I do not lay with anyone nightly as of currently.

"Poda," Hyrcanus whispered softly, opening the folds of Podaleirios' tent and slipping in, tugging his chiton closer to himself as he fought back a tired whimper. "Sorry- I, uh, forgot." He murmured quietly.

@hyrcanusofphanonion

"I had presumed as much, given your delay," said the leech with a voice just as quiet in reply, "Though I would not have blamed you if you'd simply fallen asleep. You've been having trouble sleeping, yes?"

Spanning across the floor of the tent was an old tapestry, fraying at the edges, that Podaleirius himself was currently sat atop of. He was curled over a mortar and pestle, grinding something into a fine powder.

"Not that I blame you," he hummed low in his throat, "seeing as the camp has been quite chaotic as of late."

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"It's not only that." Hyrcanus murmured quietly, walking over to Podaleirius and sitting down beside him, crossing his legs where he sat. Staying quiet for a moment.

Might as well get it over with, he reckoned. "I'm pregnant." He said, looking away, breath hitching slightly out of nervousness.

Why does my back hurt so bad...? Mmn..

[machaon-of-tricca]

Do you want me to get my brother for you?

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

Please...

[machaon-of-tricca]

@podaleirios-of-trikka

Brother, it's best you come here for a minute.

[podaleirios-of-trikka]

Oh dear.

@hyrcanusofphanonion Have you been resting appropriately? Pushing yourself too far physically?

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

...

No...

[podaleirios-of-trikka]

You've been neglecting to rest, but you have not pushed yourself too far? Has something been keeping you from sleeping?

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

... Maybe. If you don't mind, maybe we could, uh, talk this in private?

always 'you look like your mother', 'you look like him', 'you look like her', 'you look'-

i will go missing. i swear to gods.

[podaleirios-of-trikka]

I find it odd that you're compared to anyone but yourself. You're your own person, and a very unique one at that. I can't see you as anyone but you. Though I suppose I never knew your mother, nor whomever else you're referring to in this message. You could look like them. But I suspect I would still see you as, well, you.

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

... gods, Podaleirios. Must you always speak like a poet to me? I-

...

I'm not even sure what to say in response. Gods above, physician.

"Ehr- Lord Menelaus?"Hyrcanus' voice broke the silence as he pushed the flap to the king of Sparta's tent open. "I got told to come here."

He rubbed the side of his neck nervously. "Sorry I'm late." He murmured softly.

”It’s fine,” Menelaus mumbled, folding a few old tunics Agamemnon had given him. “I just gotten here myself.”

His eyes flickered to Hyrcanus before back to his folding. “You wanted flirting advice?”

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"Flir- I didn't- I-" Hyrcanus got flustered at that question, breath hitching slightly in his throat before he answered, clearly caught off guard.

"... Yeah, I wanted flirting advice." He said quietly, almost hesitant.

[kingofsparta]

”Well, what do you know?” Menelaus looked at Hyrcanus, pausing the activity he was doing beforehand.

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"I- uh," He looked away from Menelaus. "... Nothing about flirting, really." He glanced at the King of Sparta again. "I know alot about marine life, though." Hyrcanus tilted his head to the side a little.

[kingofsparta]

Menelaus sighed, nodding. “Give me a few random facts, then.” He turned his focus back to his folding.

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"Well," Hyrcanus leaned back slightly where he stood. "the oceans provide most of Earth's living space and oxygen, while containing diverse and ancient species like the blue whale and jellyfish. Some animals, like clownfish, are capable of changing sex, while others, like seahorses, have males that give birth-" He paused for a moment.

"Am I rambling? Sorry. 'm rambling." Hyrcanus murmured, messing with his hair slightly as he talked.

[kingofsparta]

”No, no, keep going.” Menelaus insisted. “I might just be a seahorse, on that occasion.” He joked.

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"I- mnh, Lord Menelaus, you fluster me." Hyrcanus murmured, hiding his face in his hands and laughing softly - a laugh that sounded like Apollo plucking a golden lyre string.

[kingofsparta]

Menelaus looked at Hyrcanus with a hint of affection in his eyes then smiled tenderly. “Your laugh is beautiful.”

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

Hyrcanus' face only grew redder where he had his face hidden in his hands. "It's-" He whined slightly under his breath, the tips of his hair glowing slightly. "It's a normal laugh, Lord Menelaus.." He murmured.

[kingofsparta]

”I don’t care if it’s a normal laugh, you-… I like it..”

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"It's-" Hyrcanus huffed softly. "a normal laugh... no need to like it," He peeked his dark brown gaze from behind his hands and looked at Menelaus, and looked away. "You fluster me." He muttered.

[kingofsparta]

”That’s what flirting is, flustering someone.” Menelaus grinned.

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

"I don't think flirting is supposed to make my body feel weird." Hyrcanus muttered and shifted his thighs.

[kingofsparta]

Menelaus looked at Hyrcanus and blinked. “It…can and will, but— I’m sorry, am I turning you on?”

[hyrcanusofphanonion]

Hyrcanus nodded slightly and looked away. "I don't know- I think so." He huffed into his hand and hid his face more.

[kingofsparta]

"Ehr- Lord Menelaus?"Hyrcanus' voice broke the silence as he pushed the flap to the king of Sparta's tent open. "I got told to come here."

He rubbed the side of his neck nervously. "Sorry I'm late." He murmured softly.
