AU where Achilles' fatal ankle wound was caused by a roomba with a knife taped on

The way old art is treated is so strange. It's seen as so beautiful but never horny or weird, even though it's one or both of those things more often than not. I was at a restaurant once and there was a painting of Leda and the swan taking up half a wall. Yes, I know it's meant to look like those very old paintings they did when mythology as a subject was all the rage. But you still have a picture of a woman being fucked by a bird on the wall of a restaurant. In any other context that wouldn't be even remotely socially acceptable.
