Summary
❝ are you gonna change my life? are you gonna waste all my time?
i wanna know your ploy, 'cause boy, you got me believing i must have met you for a reason ❞• • •
"What did you just say?" Malcolm repeats.
Connor moves his mouth around in a grimace, like the words are trapped behind his teeth and the only thing keeping them in are his sealed lips. "Go on a date with me," he says haltingly, each word using another breath.
This isn't Connor's usual modus operandi. Normally, there would be some sort of physical evidence of the prank, along with the mental scar. A court jester, not an evil clown. But this sick joke doesn't sound like something Connor would cook up on his own.
"A bet," he gasps. The pieces click into place when Connor's eyes widen guiltily. "This is a bet, isn't it?"
"H-how did you..." he stammers out, taking a step back.
"Like I said, Stoll," Malcolm feels his lips stretch up, forming a manic edge along his grin, "I know everything."

Summary
❝ thanatophobia:
(n.) the phobia of losing someone you love ❞• • •
This must've been the first dream about that night in many years. The first night terror in a month or two, actually. Percy was twenty-one now, years after the end of both wars and over a decade after that wretched night. However, he knew the ending scenes of his dream were far from what really happened. While he would have liked to introduce Gabe to the wrath of Medusa earlier, that only happened after his first quest. At ten years old after his mother's death, Percy did not stand up at fight. He ran. He ran and ran and ran until he collapsed in an alleyway, near ready to follow his mother's descent. He may have been successful, if he hadn't met Gotham's Dark Knight. Percy sat up in his bed, his memories effectively pushing the sleep from his system. Batman had scooped him up and whispered promises of a better life, one with his friend Bruce Wayne. Percy could never recollect how he ended up in a plush bed inside Wayne Manor that same night, or how he ended up joining the coveted Wayne family. All he knew of was the gentle hands of their butler tending to his wounds and the warm smiles of Bruce Wayne and his other ward: Dick Grayson.

Summary
"Oh, you're the manticore that kidnapped my best friend! That really pissed me off, y'know." He grins. "If you wanna get killed again, be my guest."
Mariana stops nervously tugging her crab bracelet for a second. "Wait, manticore? Like the Mythomagic card with three thousand attack points?"
"And plus-five for saving throws?" Percy adds before a horrific wave of deja vu hits him.
The manticore sheds his hat, revealing a full lion mane, and dropping down into all fours. (A mortal walking from a couple metres at his right stops to survey the scene, then turns back around with a scowl. It's unclear if that's a cause of The Mist or Gothamite survival instincts.)
"Guess you got your wish, Mariana," Percy mutters. "You've got powers, like me. I'm sorry."
And he means it. He means it so much, because here is a little girl with the potential to live and succeed in the mortal world, but she's stuck facing potential death instead.
Deleted chapters from THANATOPHOBIA about finding Mariana’s demigod parent
(Slight canon divergence from the THANATOPHOBIA storyline)

Summary
"You came along," Percy says as Dick slides into his usual place next to him.
"What, you didn't want me to?" Dick pouts. Percy has to stop his mind from calling him cute. He looks away swiftly, unable to see the genuine hurt weaved in the other man's face.
“No, I’m glad you’re here, but…” He glances at Mariana and Damian, where they inspect the aisles while ignoring every fibre of the other’s being. “It’s fine, it’s nothing.”
“Are you sure?” Dick asks, not-so-sneakily taking Percy’s coffee from his hand. Percy warns him off his little side quest, but Dick just raises an eyebrow in challenge. Percy makes no other moves to stop him — he knows he'll regret it soon enough. Maintaining eye contact, he takes a sip. Percy watches on, his eyes momentarily flickering down to where his lips touch the lid.
The moment is very soon ruined when Dick makes a face and holds the coffee far, far away from himself (Told ya, Percy thinks.). "Gosh, what's in here?! You're just as bad as Tim!"
Percy and Dick do some back to school shopping with Damian and Mariana (Tim's there too)
(Compliant with my THANATOPHOBIA storyline)
