Epic The Musical Zombie Apocalypse Au - Tumblr Posts
I am also desperate for zombie Polites, it’s so cute. If you have the time and energy, please share
Okay so yapping time about this AU! (Ignore any mistakes, it is midnight here 👍)
okay, so first things first; Polites, Odysseus and Eurylochus work for the same company as Odysseus as CEO and they have to go on a lot of different business trips. The last one they go on before the apocalypse was to Greece, meaning once it began they got stuck there.
A few months passed and while most things have became chaotic, Odysseus managed to keep things under control with Eury and Poli, motivated by wanting to return home to his wife and son (of course).
But one day, after getting ambushed, Polites gets scratched in the leg by a zombie. Odysseus is acting as if it’s fine, silently praying that because it wasn’t a bite, that Polites would be okay. Unfortunately, Polites does turn.
Eurylochus and Odysseus argue about what they should do with their friend, Eurylochus thinks it’s too dangerous to keep him around and that they should just put him out of his misery, but Odysseus refuses, stating that one day there might be a cure. Eurylochus hesitantly agrees but makes a deal that Polites will stay muzzled.
To both of their surprises, Polites is fine with being muzzled and doesn’t even try to attack them. If anything, he seems more clingy than usual. Odysseus uses this as another reason to keep Polites alive.
Polites is basically like their guard dog, super affectionate around them but doesn’t hesitate to defend his friends. He doesn’t usually act on his urges to kill humans but one day Eurylochus has a pretty bad wound and Polites goes feral for a bit, especially since his muzzle has fallen off. They are both fine afterwards but Eurylochus makes sure to be nowhere around Polites when he’s hurt.
That’s basically all I have for now, there is still some plot to be worked on but I do know Polited does get cured and is (mostly) okay!
Also silly doodle of him since I absolutely adore this man
(This does not count for day 11 btw)
would you be okay with someone writing for your zombie Polites au?
Yes of course! Just tag/mention/idk me because I would love to read it :D
More Zombie apocalypse stuff for day 11 because it has consumed my brain…
Also Perimedes and Elpenor have been designed!! I’ll eventually write their stories :3 also tomorrow I’m gonna design Penelope, Ctimene, Telemachus, Euthymia, Antinous AND Calypso!!
Im lowkey in love with your zombie epic au, and i'm probably gonna write something for it once i have ideas for it! I just have a few questions first tho if you wouldnt mind answering:
You mentioned that Ody is a CEO, so is this a modern times AU?
Are you comfortable with smut being written with this au? because that is one of my ideas including lotus fruit but i wouldnt want to do it if it made you uncomfy.
how is the rest of the world during the apocalypse, if you thought about it sorry im just curious. like is civilization still standing or are things really going to shit?
I would love to answer some questions about my AU! I love any excuse to yap about it :3
Okay, this is very much a modern day setting, the Apocalypse started late 2024 (mostly so I can make Telemachus use brain rot) but also because I feel like I'm better at writing for stuff I understand more, I am now tempted to make an alt version during the actual time but I’ll need to figure that all out.
And the Apocalypse has affected the whole world and things are not going great- like at all 😭 the main plot really takes place a few months after and the world is a disaster. That’s why Odysseus couldn’t just get on a flight and head back home from Greece, all air travel was shut. For the first month it’s mostly like the pandemic but it just keeps getting worse.
And for the last question about smut…YES! I am completely comfortable with that and I would definitely love to read it ^^
More designs for the apocalypse AU for day 12! Calypso is also a zombie btw :3
I had to draw this with them 😭
adding the Trojan family into my AU ^^
the are definitely not the main focus and it’s more of a side story (definitely not an excuse to draw Paris)
When Helen got turned, Menelaus was trying to keep an eye on her but one night she wandered off and then was found by Paris. She is a lot more docile and that made him think that she was in love with him, meanwhile she was just trying to eat him (Hector has had to save his dumbass multiple times) Hector wants to kill Helen to protect their family but Paris’ delusional ass tries to protect her. She is eventually found by Menelaus again and that’s about all I have :3
AAAA THIS IS SO GOOD!!! Thank you so much :D I’m genuinely so happy right now!!
“No. We’re not keeping him.” He stared him down.
“Come on, as long as we keep the proper precautions, it should be fine!” He argued, “And you have to admit that he’s kinda cute, jumping and clinging onto us like that.” He tried appealing to Eurylochus’ softer side.
“He looks like he’s been stuck in a cave without seeing the sun for a decade. And to remind you, a zombie jumping onto you is NOT cute!” He argued back.
