    Summary

    They've faced titans. Monsters. Dealt with the gods. Turns out the hardest thing Percy and Annabeth have ever had to do is stand across from each other — sword to sword — and pretend that's the only fight happening.

    It's not. There's everything they haven't said. The prophecy hanging over their heads. The weeks of careful distance that have taken up more space than either of them knows what to do with.

    A lego house — that's what they're building. Piece by piece. Snapped together and pulled apart and put back together again, because that's what you do when something matters. You don't leave it broken on the floor. You pick up the pieces. You start again.

    It falls apart sometimes. That's the nature of it. That's the nature of them.

    But Percy will always pick up the pieces. And Annabeth will always come back to build.

    Summary

    What does it mean to save the world, only to lose your own? Zeus calls it a decree. Percy calls it a cage. Bound to Olympus and stripped of the life he fought for, he is allowed only three fleeting escapes a year — three chances to breathe something real. The gods have everything from him.

    Everything, except the quiet ache of knowing Annabeth is out there, living the life that should have been theirs.

    ***
    An AU where saving the world earns Percy an eternity bound to Olympus — three days a year beyond its gates, and a curse so cruel it hollows him out completely: no one remembers him. Not the campers. Not his family. Not Annabeth. No one, except Grover.

    Summary

    Annabeth knows Percy Jackson like a language she never had to learn—his deflection, his timing, the exact way he avoids naming what he feels. Percy, on the other hand, is still trying to translate himself.

    She knew before he did—and the only thing more dangerous than feminine intuition is realizing you’re right about someone who hasn’t even begun to understand they were already yours in every way that mattered.

    Summary

    if anyone happened to ask, natalie would say that there are really only three things that you need to know to understand the yellowjackets juniors:

    1. for shauna, it’s always about jackie, and for jackie, it’s always about shauna.
    2. if you’re horny (you meaning natalie), you go to lottie. if you need to not be (you meaning all of them), you go to laura lee.
    3. van worships the ground that taissa turner walks on for reasons natalie is certain she’ll never understand.
