Author's Note: Ok nothing much happens here, and it's not rolling on the floor hilarious, but yeah, just a shorty.
Disclaimer: Only own this fanfic, not Troy.
Scene change to Agamemnon ranting on about something in his boat/tent
Agamemnon: Achilles makes a secret pact and we have to honour it? What treason is this?
Agamemnon: Consorting with the enemy king, he should be consorting with me (nudges Nestor suggestively, whole court roll their eyes in disgust).
Nestor: Even with Hector gone, we have no way to breach their lovely high walls, is it just me or is Priam a little too affectionate with those walls. Anyway, they could wait 10 years for us to leave.
Soldiers are trying to pass the twelve days in various ways, one is whittling a wooden horse.
Soldier notices Odysseus staring at him, and is gets uncomfortable.
Soldier: Uh... for my boy back home.
Odysseus continues to stare at the horse, not noticing the soldier said anything.
Scene flick to Greeks stripping the planks off their boats.
Unfortunately it hasn't occured to anyone in the Greek camp that with all the wood from the boats gone there are no boats and therefore no way of returning home.
Achilles: Wily Odysseus, you've found a way to make the wolves invite the sheep for dinner.
Odysseus nods and then realises what Achilles has said.
Odysseus: Hold, the wolves invite the sheep?
Achilles: Yes.
Odysseus: Don't you mean sheep invite the wolves?
Achilles: That's what I said.
Odysseus: What no you said the wolves invite the sheep.
Achilles: I did?
Long pause.
Odysseus: So which are we? the wolves or the sheep?
Achilles: Aren't we the sheep?
Odysseus: I thought we were the wolves.
Long confused pause.
Odysseus: Perhaps we're sheep dressed as wolves.
Achilles: Uhuh.
Odysseus: Or sheep pretending to be wolves, but then pretending to be sheep.
Achilles is clearly confused.
Achilles: ... Well, now you're just confusing yourself.
