    Summary

    About a week after that, All Might asked Izuku if he was aiming for the hero course at UA. The question was so sudden that Izuku nearly dropped a microwave on his toes.

    The truth was, if All Might had asked him that a week ago, there would have only been one possible answer to that question. All Might had gone to UA, UA was the best, so Izuku was going to go there too, if he could. But things were a little different, now that he was going to receive All Might’s Quirk.

    “No,” he said, decisively.

    All Might looked caught off guard, which was a very rare expression on him. “No?” he echoed, like he couldn’t believe it.

    A laugh bubbled out of Izuku’s throat. He honestly couldn’t believe it either. “No,” he repeated.

    ___

    Or, All Might tells Izuku about All for One before he gives him One for All, and everything changes.

    Summary

    Percy Jackson knew one thing, aside from his name. There was a boy named Lee, and he was waiting for him.

    Percy was quite sure that, if not for that singular piece of knowledge, he would be dead a thousand times over. Every time he stumbled, scraping his knees on the ground and struggling to get back up, that thought spurred him on.

    There was a boy named Lee, and he was waiting for him.

    Not even the slew of monsters straight out of the myths that seemed to have no purpose except to stop him from getting any rest, relentlessly driving him across the state, nor the migraines that pounded behind his skull every time Percy tried to remember where he came from, could keep him down.

    Because there was a boy named Lee, and he was waiting for him.

    Summary

    Percy had always seen more than he should. As long as he could remember, he’d dogged the footsteps of long-dead, ancient heroes in his dreams—Heracles, Theseus, Odysseus, Perseus, Achilles—sometimes the heroes he watched were younger, more recent, sometimes he stared at their faces in his waking hours too because he knew them, sometimes he watched himself.

    His first dream had been the death of Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus, and he'd woken with phantom claws in his skin and dazzling light bursting across his eyelids. The death of a hero, he’d known then, even at the tender age of seven.

    He’d thought then that he’d understood his destiny. He was the seer, the prophet, not the hero.

    Then he’d learned who his father was, and he’d realized his destiny was that of a hero’s, too.

    A hero, like the kind he watched in his dreams—Heracles, Theseus, Odysseus, Perseus, Achilles.

    They thought him to be Achilles, he knew, though they never said it to his face. Great, brilliant, shining, god-like. Doomed.

    Sword in hand, Olympus at his back, Percy was beginning to realize that he wasn’t Achilles.

    He was Paris.

    Summary

    Chris Rodriguez never recognized Percy. Never acknowledged him past mindless babbles and the occasional wordless cry.

    And yet, every weekend, like clockwork, Percy went back to his room. Sat at his bedside and endured his maddened rambles. Ignored the sting of madness prickling his spine.

    Percy sat, and he kept his friend company. Spoke softly and calmly as he told his friend about his week, never raising his voice, never letting any negative emotion bleed through into his tone. Brushed through his hair carefully, when Chris let him, and untangled the knots with gentle patience.

    Week after week, Percy returned to camp.

    Chris Rodriguez never recognized Percy, and, these days, Percy didn’t recognize him either.
