    Summary

    Percy had, briefly, entertained a fantasy of a triumphant return to Gotham. He’d get a blessing for the Waynes and finally prove he wasn’t fucking crazy, and come home to Jason and get to know Dick and get a chance to try again and, and, and—

    At the end of his first quest, Percy took the opportunity to get on a library computer and check what was going on back home: if his disappearance had been noted, if he'd managed to hold off a direct manhunt despite his truly prodigious bouts of national attention.

    Apparently he had. What he hadn't been expecting in his search was the widespread reporting on the death of Jason Todd.
    He went back to camp in a daze. Luke tried to kill him with a pit scorpion. And that, kind of, was that.

    Years later, adrift after Tartarus, he finds himself pushed back to the city he once called home. All he has to do is keep his head down. Because he's just so great at that.

    [Tim Drake is running on three cups of coffee, two hours of sleep, and a rapidly-waning belief in the value of a diploma when the most suspicious transfer student in the world walks in. Tim nearly chokes on his own tongue when he notices the white streak in his hair.]

    Summary

    "Death"

    "You are finally ready, I see"

    "Ready for what?"

    "To live"

    "Wasn't I doing just that?"

    "Were you?"

    Harry had no answer.
    (Perhaps that was answer enough. Or perhaps Death just enjoyed being cryptic. Hard to say.)
    ___

     

     

    {Time-travel AU. Watch as Harry is yeeted into the past, bullies the wizarding world into making sense, and absolutely refuses to follow Dumbledore’s script. Features excessive worldbuilding (someone's gotta fix this mess), slow-burn romance (because trauma-bonding is hot), and a protagonist who treats destiny like Terms & Conditions—unread and promptly ignored. Happy ending optional, sarcasm mandatory.}

    Summary

    Theodore Nott did not believe the hype about Harry Potter.
    And then Potter summoned a corporeal stag the size of his trust issues.

    Now the stag won’t leave, Potter won’t stop rambling, and Theo might be developing a completely manageable, definitely-not-deranged fascination.

    It’s fine.
    He’s fine.
    Everyone is lying.

    Summary

    Once, there was a great prophecy that a child of the eldest gods would reach sixteen, heralding a battle for Olympus. While the battle came to pass, there was no child of the big 3 at the age at the time. Now, a new war has begun, and Annabeth once again finds herself smack in the middle of it.

    Honestly, she’s quite fed up with it. She got months of her life stolen, her memories erased, became a (temporary) praetor of Romans against her will to prevent a power-hungry schemer, went on a solo death quest from her mom, and now is plunging into Tartarus alone, hungry, and with absolutely no supplies.

    However somehow, in the most unlikely of places, she suddenly finds herself with some mysterious help.

    Now if only she could find the cause.

    Summary

    “No.“

    The word rang trough the throne room like a gunshot.

    Hermes’ fingers, which had previously danced over the screen of his caduceus halted and he raised an eyebrow as he looked up at Poseidon.

    The Lord of the Sea held his head high, regally, unrelenting. His eyes were as dark as the waters surrounding Charybdis and his glance bored into each and every one of them, while his hands rested on his trident.

    A silent threat.

    Or:
    It’s a Reading the book story.

    Old, done a million times and completely self-indulgent.

    If you like this kind of story you’re probably desperate enough to check every new one out, if you don’t, I know there is nothing at all I can say to convince you to read this one, and if you don’t know what a reaction fic is and simply start this one out of curiosity , I might be the one to drag you into this rabbit hole.

    If that’s the case, I am deeply sorry, and good luck. It’s pretty hard to leave this trope behind once you’re into it.

    Summary

    “We’re getting you out of here, okay?” Percy was sure that Draco was conscious, but he seemed too deep in his fear to register Percy's words. His arms trembled in front of his face. He was holding his breath, trying to hear each step that brought Percy and Nico closer. His entire body was tensed as if he was waiting for them to get close enough to kick him in the gut.

    OR
    Draco gets rescued from Bellatrix by demigods who don't know about the wizarding world.

    Nico gets kidnapped by the Order of the Phoenix who mistakes him for a powerful Death Eater.

    Summary

    Neville Longbottom, the Boy-Who-Lived, won the war against Voldemort, and Harry Potter played his small part in that victory. Now, less than five years later, a group of disaffected former Death Eaters is causing trouble, and asking for Harry as a hostage in return for a period of peace. Harry, believing it’s better he be taken prisoner than Neville, accepts, thinking this will give Neville time to gather his forces and put down the Death Eaters. He doesn’t much think about his own fate, other than to assume it will be gruesome. He’s wrong.

    Summary

    Percy Jackson can’t get a break. He stopped the fall of Olympus. He stopped the rise of Giants and the destruction of the mortal world. He finally, FINALLY, got into college. His life finally looked like it was getting better. So of course he’s not even a little surprised when he gets kidnapped by a group of wand-waving weirdos who took a little too much inspiration from the Fairy Godmother from Cinderella. And of course, his other grandfather was one of those weirdos. And also of the psychopathic, murdering, dictator variety.

    Summary

    “When Alec kneels before you on that dais, Magnus,” Jace keeps going, “he’s telling every person present that it is your judgement, your respect, that he places before all others. In you placing that rune on his neck, Alec is publicly proclaiming that it’s your blessing and your judgement on him and on his reign as Head that gives him the right and the authority to uphold the Covenant.”

    Magnus' throat is too tight to speak, but there’s a distinct shimmer visible in his suddenly unglamoured eyes.

    Almost a decade after the destruction of Kings Landing, Westeros remains at war and a visit to Essos by Tyrion Lannister sets off a series of events that not even he could have predicted, for it seems not only does the Dragon Queen live, but someone long thought in the North is no longer there.
