    Summary

    "I dunno, I just think it would make a lot of things easier for a lot of people," Percy said to Thalia, when she just stared at him. His cheek rested in his hand, a rare pensive look leaving his eyes distant and unfocused. "Mom has Paul now, so it’ll be easier on her if she doesn’t have to worry about me mucking things up. Dad won’t have to keep threatening war every time Zeus gets his toga twisted. The prophecy’s done, so I won’t be bringing it down on Nico. And no one will have to worry about me blowing up another volcano."

    Summary

    “I just don’t get it,” he huffs to Will as they put up holiday decorations in the unusually quiet infirmary, “they talk to me like I’m supposed to know stuff. Like I’m the new Percy or something.”

    Nico expects Will to laugh at this, shrug off his concerns as unfounded and tell him he’s being over-dramatic like usual.

    He is wrong.

    “Okay, babe, don’t take this the wrong way. But, you kind of are the new Percy.”

    ___
    Based on a tumblr post I made about Nico being the obvious choice as Camp Half-Blood's unofficial leader when Percy leaves for college. (only no one bothers to tell Nico that)

    Summary

    Valerie calls her an hour later.

    “Sally, what the hell?”

    “That bad, huh?”

    “Bad? Sally, it’s gold. I went from squirming in my seat to crying genuine tears. And that twist, making him a Greek god, it’s exactly what we’re looking for right now. How soon can you get me the next chapter?”

    ***

    In which Sally Jackson realizes by the time the new baby is eighteen, a semester of college will cost an arm and a leg. And those Fifty Shades of Grey books sure did make a lot of money.

    Summary

    So, Poseidon would admit he was lost.

    Odysseus had tricked him. Again. Despite the way the man had been all but trapped in Poseidon’s domain, Athena’s precious ‘Warrior of the Mind’ had not yet run out of luck and Poseidon was suffering for it. The coward refused to extend proper mercy, didn’t stand like a hero, and now used trickery to run from an honorable death. False righteousness, not even finishing the job.

    Yet Poseidon had chased him down, following him into the cave Odysseus’s ship had sailed into. Or, the cave he thought Odysseus’s ship had sailed into.

    He wasn’t sure anymore. This was most certainly not Greece anymore.

    AKA

    EPIC: The Musical's Poseidon lands in the PJO verse and decides that if the local Poseidon is not going to raise his son, then he's going to do it. Percy is just happy to have a dad that wants to take him to drown ferries of tourists.

    Summary

    Bruce gifts his sons and daughter cute friendship bracelets. That’s it. That’s Batman’s mundane and domestic agenda. Totally not-weird behavior.

    (They’re tracking devices.

    The bracelets—they’re tracking devices.

    And no, his children don’t know that.)

    Summary

    Danny's been learning how to protect what's his with diplomacy as well as sheer power. So when someone mistakes him as an easily targeted civilian? Well. They can't hurt him, but if he doesn't do anything they might target his people.

    Being a ghost makes it so much easier to scare off a threat.

    Roy (5:59pm): JAY
    Roy (5:59pm): DID YOU SEND A THREAT TO THE WATCHTOWER
    Roy (6:00pm): ?????

    The reply came just a minute later, Roy sparing one glance to the chatting Justice League before looking back down.

    Jay (6:01pm): Nah
    Jay (6:01pm): Was I supposed to?
    Jay (6:02pm): Also, that’s not a dinner dish. Try again, Ed Sheeran

    Or: How Wally West, Roy Harper, and Kon-El Kent remembered that not everyone just knows the Batfam.

    Or or: Three times the Justice League needed Batman but conveniently couldn’t get a hold of him. Good thing he has trained bat associates! Wait, what?

    And the one time they realised it was a whole family.

    “Bless your heart, you really are new to this. Good for y’all, though. I’m glad this ship is… accepting.”

    Eddie straightens in his seat. “What does that mean?”

    All four wince as a young man taps the microphone onstage.

    “Testing, testing,” he jokes. “Welcome to the Cruisin’ Couples Trivia Tournament!”

    The patrons around them cheer. Eddie digs his nails into Buck’s skin harsh enough to make him wince.

    “Oh,” he breathes. “This is for couples.”

    or: After getting dumped, Buck is left with two tickets to a weeklong cruise. Eddie steps in to support a friend in need, but complications arise when his friend becomes his fake husband. All's fair in love, war, and trivia.

    Summary

    "I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.

    “Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”

    "I’m sorry. What?”

    Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

    Summary

    “It’s not that bad,” Izuku says. “You get used to it after awhile.”
    The room goes so quiet he can hear Kaminari and Sero playing video games two doors down, and very quickly he realizes his mistake.
    “Deku-kun,” Uraraka starts slowly, like maybe she didn’t hear him right. “Did someone...did someone tell you to kill yourself?”
    (Or: Izuku's friends find out something about his past and know better than to leave it alone.)

    Summary

    Harry is a child. Why is it his job to save the school? Why is it his job to do anything other than attend classes and do homework?

    It’s not his job, but it seems Dumbledore is trying to make it Harry’s job.

    And well, after living with the Dursleys so long only to end up under the thumb of a brand new manipulator, can Harry really be blamed for running away?

    If no one else sees value in Harry, then it’s Harry’s job to find value in himself. That is a job he can live with.

    *

    An eleven-year-old boy goes on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
    Let’s see what happens.

    (And he also maybe saves the world?)

    -
    A/N: I got some questions in comments so to clarify: the disability tag WILL NOT apply to Harry at any point in the fic. There is a character who is mute, and remains so for the duration of the fic, and the tag applies only to them. If you have questions or concerns regarding your well-being while reading, feel free to drop a comment and I'll do my best to help out! <3

    Summary

    When the Ministry informs Harry that they are coming to destroy his wand for defending himself from the dementors that attack him in Little Whinging, Harry knows there's only one path left available to him. He can survive on his own. He knows how. It won't even be that hard. And being on the run in his animagus form makes him a feel a little closer to Sirius, anyway.

    At least, he thinks so, until he's picked up by a pet store, sold to a classmate, and brought right back to Hogwarts where the state of things is so bad that he's actually glad he's expelled.

    Prompt:

    "Will I spend the rest of my life wishing I could go back?"

    In which Marinette loses her partner, her life, and her name in order to fulfil her duty, but when the time comes for her to seek out a new partner for the sake of the universe, she becomes haunted by the memory of the boy who sacrificed everything.

     

    This has lots of comfort for trauma and hope for the future. I think.
