    Summary

    The call of the ocean was strong tonight.

    Percy walked along the dock at the edge of New Rome. Everything was silent except for the chimes of ropes banging against masts and the restless flap of tarps in the wind. The salt in the breeze tasted sweet and heady.

    Percy made his way over to the bottom of a wooden jetty and sat so his legs dangled over the edge, his feet hovering just above the water. The sea below him was black and fathomless. But he could feel how it was teeming with life; he could hear the fishes chattering as they swam around and under the hulls of the twenty-or-so-dinghies crowded into the dark marina, he could hear the distant calls of dolphins wanting him to play with them beyond the sandbar.

    It would be so easy to push himself off the edge and be swept away by the currents, to breathe seawater again and to feel it fill his lungs. He missed it. Gods, he missed it.

    ~~~

    Or a short horror story where Poseidon forces Percy to ascend just in time for Halloween, enjoy!

    Summary

    “Lady Morgana,” The lord said, his brows furrowing as he took a step back “Pardon me for the assumption, but I was told the king’s ward never left the East tower?” He asked and gestured vaguely around the gardens. Morgana smiled and Merlin smirked from his hiding place as he watched Arthur consider swooping in to save the man, but clearly thinking better of it.

    “Ah, of course.” Morgana said “You must be confused. There are two wards of the king. I’m afraid you won’t be able to meet Merlin today.”

    Or

    Uther took in Balinor’s child as a baby and claimed him as his ward. Merlin thinks he’s being held hostage, but whatever.
