Title: The End of All Stories.
Fandom: Class of the Titans.
Characters: Archie and Atlanta.
Rating: PG.

Author's Notes: Drabble written for 'Yearn' at alphabetdrabble. Holy crap, I wrote something vaguely shippy. 'Class of the Titans' and all related entities are property of Studio B Productions, Nelvana, and Teletoon.

Archie (thinks-feels-knows) it will happen eventually, because that is the way all stories like his end -- even Melanion won Artemis-like Atalanta, hot grief and cold chastity binding her heart snipped snipped snapped like cheap string and twine. Atlanta is (too much) like her near-eponymous ancestor, preferring the rushing swiftness of the hunt in her ears and legs to the lethargy of limp fingers around her calloused wrists.
She's only cracked once before, and Archie (white-heated rage to match Achilles’) can smell his first kiss when he remembers, all choked all smothered (sunlight nymphs goats filthy dirty goats most of all).
-----
As I can't write a 'Class of the Titans' story without pedantic references and explaining them -- the repetition of 'all' and how it sort of chokes the ending is meant to be a sly reference to the Greek-derived prefix 'pan', which means 'all'. Pan's name is NOT derived from the same root, but I thought it would be fun way regardless to refer to Pan without saying his name directly.
