They were roommates?

Yeah, just real good buddies, you know? Did everything together, including each other. Totally straight, just roommates

in the story: patroclus, achilles' lover, stole achilles clothes to inspire the men to fight the trojans; it would make sense that he had the heels and achilles was weak over them. lol

Achilles is gonna do a Zoolander style fashion show in Troy, but Paris heckles him on the catwalk, causing him to stumble and snap his heel?
