I think that Achille and Patroclus were one of my first MLM ships when I was younger. I studied and read the myths when I was in elementary school, so 20+ years ago, when it was still pretty rare to have canon "queer" (if you can call them that?) characters.
I've read Madeline Miller's book about them and it was a good story with very touching and engaging moments, but IMHO I've never envisioned Patroclus like in her version of the story. Achille, yeah, I can buy it. She actually wrote him waaaay better than his "real" whiny manchild counterpart from the Iliad.
Now my main classical ships are Jason/Medea and Hector/Andromache. I've always had a soft spot for Hector because he seemingly was a very good man with lots of love for his family. Medea is my favourite female character EVER and her relationship with Jason is truly tragic and fascinating.

Maybe Alexander the Great and Hephaestion have a large following? IDEK but Alexander the Great is a great character to explore!

re: Jason/Medea, I was going to fliply mention that you can always find a fun pairing with two dislikeable assholes! They are one of my faves too.
