Wolfgang Peterson and Warner Bros. owns the movie &lt;em&gt;Troy&lt;/em&gt; while Homer owns the book titled, &lt;em&gt;The Illiad&lt;/em&gt;. I'm not making any money off of this fic/plot. No copyright infringement is intended.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A/N:&lt;/strong&gt;  Flames will be laughed at.

She did her best to continue and to live on if only for him.  However, should found that she simply &lt;em&gt;could not&lt;/em&gt; live without him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="cut-wrapper"&gt;&lt;span style="display: none;" id="span-cuttag___1" class="cuttag"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class="cut-open"&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-text"&gt;&lt;a href="https://vera-sabe.dreamwidth.org/1067.html#cutid1"&gt;Back in Your Arms&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class="cut-close"&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="display: none;" id="div-cuttag___1" aria-live="assertive"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;AO3 A/N:&lt;/strong&gt;  Frist published on FF.Net on Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005.  Edited on Friday, June 13th, 2025.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;strong&gt;06/11/'26 LJ A/N:&lt;/strong&gt;  Posted this on AO3 last year- 2025.  But AO3 allows users to select the original date of the fic's post.  So, that's what I did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;I may re-edit this again in the near future.  It's still quite choppy and repetitive. *sighs*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=vera_sabe&amp;ditemid=1067" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
