    Summary

    Percy Jackson is born in Gotham. It's a horrible city, with its killer clowns and mad scientists and cannibalistic half-human sewer dwellers.

    A melting pot of monsters. Any sane person would take one look at it and run away screaming.

    Except Percy has a secret.

    And he can't help but think he might be the worst monster of them all.

    Act II posted!

    Summary

    The first sensation he felt upon awaking from what seemed like an eternity of blackness was the comfort. The warmth began deep in his chest and radiated through his fingertips by his sides, through his bare toes underneath him, and even through the strands of hair on his head, long but floating around his scalp in resemblance to a saintly halo.

    Summary

    For Jason, this was discovering his brother absolutely ravishing a bag filled with literal blood at five in the morning. The thought that Tim might be a vampire didn't even cross his mind. He concluded that Tim had gone insane.

    “I’m not a vampire,” Tim insisted with blood dripping from his chin, the half-empty pouch he had been drinking from still clutched in his hand. “I swear.”

    /

    If you asked Bruce, then Tim simultaneously managed to be the most tame and unhinged child of all. His behaviour ranged from graduating early out of spite, to making clones of his not-really-deceased (boy)friend. Bruce held the opinion that Tim would have to come out on his own terms. Which was why he didn’t press the vampire- situation either.

    Summary

    The walls stayed silent. As he spun around in the dark corridor, he mostly expected the roaches to reply. Maybe they could answer his questions about a resident. More absurdly, if he could use their phone to call the number just to make sure, now that his own battery had died. Or maybe, they would tell him to go to a hospital- because a kid who heard roaches talking and comes back from the dead was clearly not well in the head.

    The door swung open.

    “Hi,” he offered.

    Summary

    His hands shake as he tries to tap the contact on his broken screen. He calls Jason. He doesn’t know why that is the first person on his mind when he comes to consciousness again.

    The man doesn’t pick up.

    [Tim dies, a bullet through his forehead, the momentum of the force knocking him back but he doesn’t feel the fall anymore.
    Or at least, he shouldn’t be able to feel the concrete below him as he opens his eyes.]

    can probably be read as a standalone
