    Summary

    “She lives.”
    Galadriel knows that voice. That drawled, amused, slightly condescending voice. Her mind is still hazy from sleep but her heart warms with an instinctive flicker of happiness.
    “No stew this time, I’m afraid,” the voice continues, rough with the accent of the Southlands. “Poisoned or otherwise.”
    His words and the familiarity of the walls around her overlap in her mind, nudging her to remember something. She follows their trail sluggishly, slotting memories into place as she finds them. She takes a moment to admire the full picture – and then comes the weight of remembering, of loss and rage, crushing her with a weight so heavy it pins her to the stone cot beneath her. Her breath leaves her in a rush, exhaling those last little sleepy shards of hope.

    Or:

    Pharazôn is convinced Sauron and Galadriel are allies, and intends to make them face a reckoning which begins back in a Númenórean prison cell.

    Summary

    "You would bribe me.”
    “I wouldn’t dream of it.” Her hair curls in golden spirals around his fingers. “I like to give you things.”
    “You deceived me.”
    He considers this as if the very idea is new to him.

     
    Halbrand leaves Eregion before Galadriel becomes suspicious, and goes back to be King of the Southlands.

    Summary

    Son of Jupiter, chosen of Juno, and just a touch too soft to do what needs to be done. Oh sure, Jason will kill monsters if he needs to, but when the monsters are gods, his solution is to become a priest.

    It’s about finding a compromise, he’d said. And making sure that we’re heard.

    Annabeth’s finding there are better ways of making noise.

    Summary

    He’s like all the others, when they bring him in. More than half dead, covered in mud. Leg almost hanging off him, just a mess of torn flesh and exposed bone. Likely won’t survive. God knows Inej has seen better off than him succumb to their injuries.

    Northern France, 1917. In a battlefield hospital, Corporal Kaz Rietveld lies gravely wounded. His nurse is determined that he will not be another thing she loses to this war.

    Summary

    Kaz squints at her. “Are you a student, Inej?”

    And, oh, no.

    Her name sounds exactly right in his rock salt rasp. It spells trouble. She shakes it off and tries to focus on answering the question. She supposes that in a different world she could be a student. She would live in a cozy apartment with some other girls, and this would just be a part-time job, so she would have time to attend lectures and write papers and go on dates.

    But Inej does not live in that world. She lives in this one.

    Summary

    “Look,” Nina says. Inej has startled her badly enough that she’s made a mess of her eyeliner – the wing on her right eye careens wildly to one side.

     

    “I’m all for reclaiming your sexuality. Seriously. Two thumbs up from me. But, honestly, Inej, does it have to be with the most emotionally unavailable man you know?”

     

    “Well, who would you suggest?”

     

    Nina’s eyes bulge. “Oh, I don’t know, literally anyone with a pulse and a conscience?”

     

    “Kaz has –

     

    “We don’t know that,” Nina says sternly.

    Summary

    Kaz and Inej crisscross state lines, organizing workers into unions. Sometimes they win. Sometimes they lose. And one time, on a cold night in Pittsburgh, they lie together in a very small bed, and they talk. And more than talk.

    Our lives shall not be sweated, from birth until life closes;
    Hearts starve as well as bodies; give us bread, but give us roses!

    Summary

    “You’re Jordan’s wife?”

    If anyone in their town would’ve gone out looking for a foreign beauty, it would’ve been Jordie. He had an adventurer’s spirit, bold and daring. If Maja squinted at the old rope swing by the lake, she could still see the silhouette of him, leaping into the water while Kasper worried from his perch on the banks.

    But Inej’s face freezes in an odd expression. “Not quite,” she says haltingly. “I’m married to his younger brother – Kaz?”

    ---

    Or, the town of Lij is endlessly fascinated with the mysterious Mr. and Mrs. Rietveld each and every time they visit.

    Summary

    Kaz is prepared to bribe the owners of the other gambling halls not to admit him—he’s prepared to send some of the younger Dregs to beat Jesper to a mild pulp every time he tries to enter the Barrel, if necessary—but he hopes it won’t come to that. If you could beat an addiction out of someone, Jesper would have been cured years ago.

    “What, then? Spit it out.”

    The other man pauses at the window, staring out at the rain, and swallows before finally saying, “Wylan asked me to marry him.”

With no way of tracking the annoyance down, Spike is forced to endure a decade of unavoidable communication.

    Summary

    “What is it?” Grover asks, “What’s with that weird look on your face?”

    “Just trying to figure out if turning me in will get us enough bounty money to buy our way to LA.” Percy says, craning his neck towards the news van.

    “We are not turning you in to the police.” Grover presses his head back into the alleyway.

    “Why not?” Percy says. They could use a bit of cash. “You guys can just break me out afterwards, right?”

    Annabeth looks like she’s considering it.

    “No, guys,” Grover says. “No.”


    If Percy has to spend the rest of his life cleaning up after the gods, then he might as well start from the beginning.

    Summary

    Luke didn't know what he had been expecting in the prophesized Chosen One.

    Heracles come again, if he had ever really thought about it. Maybe Jason, if they were lucky. But they would still be all arrogance and the stink of destiny and belief in heroes.

    Percy. . .was not.

    “Watch out, one day I'll get revenge and you’ll wake up with your hair dyed a bright yellow, and it will be all your fault because you couldn't stop talking shit.” Thalia warns him.

    “Yeah,” Percy agrees as he puts the bottle back and browses through the others, “that’s my sin. When I die and go to the Underworld, I’ll be judged on my shit talking.”

    “Honestly you will.”
