Good

I loved it, the two stories going together, the myth and history intertwined, and the whole Dionysus/Meneus thing, but just one question...does anyone else get the feeling that Telemachus (not Odysseus' son?) was killed and eaten by the Bacchae, and it was his blood that was smeared on Helene? Kind of dark, but eh, whatever works...

Stunning

Wow. Wild, beautiful, poetic, and hot. How DO you do it?

I nominate you for High Priest of Dionysus. :-)

Wonderful!

Dionysus is one of my favorite Greek gods and this story certainly did him justice. I also love the interactions of the youths, adorable and arousing at the same time.

Wow

A remarkable rendering of the ecstatic worship of Bacchus-- I was carried along with Penelope's experience, despite my being male.

Awesome

I was completely taken by your description of the rite... It was a amazing but so frustratingly short! I want more...

* Story translated from Ancient Greek into American Slang. So Americans can read this reassured with familiar words such as Pussy, Ass, Cunt, Fuck/Fucking/Fucked, Juice, Cock, Ejaculation, Rode, Prick, Climax, Slit, Pre-cum, Coming, Came, Orgasm, Come and Gism, the last one translated into English, Jism or Jizz. Hope that helps. Unless you think Ancient Greeks said Pussy?!!
