Phone Sex

Hercules:  the Legendary Journeys (slash: other)

Death's Sticky Feet
Ares/Iphicles.  R.  15k.   Death comes to call--a demented fairy tale in five very short acts.  It's the voice that makes this one different, a muse on speed. 

For Giving
Ares/Iphicles, Iphicles/other.   NC-17.  OMC (kinda), some implicit m/f, kink.  60k.   On the eve of war, Iphicles, abandoned by Ares, receives a gift.  This one has a twist or two, in more ways than one, but at heart it's a love story.

Immortal With a Kiss
Ares/Caesar.  Mpreg.   NC-17.  15k.   Caesar receives an unpleasant shock.   Yes, this is mpreg, but mpreg as you rarely see it:  nasty.   No babies or anything like that, either.   Give it a try.

Het

Bird Eyes, Cat Tongues:  or, A Plum Tale of Vengeance
(06/04/01)   Ares/OFC.   Het, implied slash.   Rape, other violence.   NC-17.   30k.   Ovid's myth of Procne and Philomela retold.  The story's a little weird, but the myth's one of my favorites, and when it clicked that Tereus was Ares' son, I couldn't resist.
