    Summary

    Tommy had lived and died as Theseus, Icarus, Orpheus and Sisyphus. But all he wanted to be was free.

    In which Tommy Soot, originally born in 1509, is cursed to be reborn, to never reach adulthood unless he figured out the Greek myth of his lifetime. He had one rule of not allowing himself to get attached to people but he would have never guessed that a foster family of the creator of Minecraft, an anime stan and a Soundcloud musician would break that rule.

     

    ~ SBI Foster AU but with Greek mythology.

    Summary

    So, let’s get a few things straight.
    1. Mumbo stole Grian’s soul in order to be human again.
    2. Grian signed a contract giving him permission to do this, which was very silly of him for not reading the fine print–always read the fine print–and fair play on Mumbo’s part.
    3. Grian no longer has a soul.
    4. Or does he share one with Mumbo?
    5. He doesn’t actually know, and, like, he should probably get on that.
    6. Grian is not human, which means this was a very bad idea from the start.
    7. Grian now has a problem. Mumbo has a bigger one.

    In which Mumbo gets a little more than he bargained for when he steals Grian's soul, and accidentally reopens a chapter of Grian's life he's been trying very hard to forget. With Mumbo now in possession of some shiny new Watcher powers, Grian takes the responsibility to teach him how to use them. But it's harder than he thinks when his own past trauma and a too-big moon are looming in front of them.
