    Summary

    “Open the doors.” Tim says frowning thoughtfully as he stares at the lone wolf snarling and attacking the walls. All the furniture in the room that the league had lured the wolf into with Robin’s scent is smashed to smithereens, and there are long claw marks over the doors. The wolf’s ears are tucked backward, teeth on display.

    Immediately all the present justice league members protest in unison, all talking over each other. Most of their complaints add up to them believing that the wolf will kill Tim the instant he enters the room, and later when Batman gets back, he’ll take it out on them.

    Which – fair enough, considering what happened the last time Bruce thought Tim was dead. But Tim has a plan, this time.

    Summary

    The low murmur of voices catches her attention. Piper’s door is cracked ever so slightly open, and Hazel hears her name.

    “-Hazel and Frank seem okay. Reyna too. I don’t know know about the Romans though, they seemed a bit trigger happy-”

    Trigger happy?!

    Internally, Hazel seethes. These fucking greeks. They come into her camp, attack her praetor and friend, fire on her civilians - most of which are children under thirteen and battle weary adults with physical disabilities and PTSD and now they have the fucking audacity to call the romans trigger happy?

    Fuck them.

    Summary

    “Arion is fine! He's perfect. Look at him, Praetor Reyna. He's completely tame.” Hazel said.

    “I have several reports that your horse rampaged resulting in 21 legionnaires with minor injuries, 12 counts of property damage, 7 counts of eaten military weaponry and 3 legionnaires with major injuries including one undergoing emergency surgery.” Reyna countered, dryly.

    Summary

    Percy’s skin glows with faint bioluminescent patterns. As if responding to some… unintentional signal, a similar pattern appears on his dad.

    He doesn't want to be a prince.

    It’s a striking difference from being one of thousands of bastard sons. All because he accidentally ingested some bioluminescent plankton while playing with Tyson and their hippocampi friends?

    Ridiculous.

    Summary

    “He wants to protect you from the truth.” Amphitrite says.

    Percy drags his eyes away from his father; looking old and tired like he had at the height of the war. The sight disturbs and worries him.

    “When you sat on his throne and persuaded him to fight with his real family on Olympus, he complained about his game room. Five hundred years to build it, yes? He was distracting you. He was protecting you from the harsh realities of war. He didn’t want you to consider the implications of what it would mean for Atlantis to be destroyed. For our people. For him, with the destruction of his throne.”

    Summary

    Percy studies the seating layout to determine the optimal place. Not too close; he doesn’t want too many evil assholes at his back observing him. Not too far back, he won’t be able to see the stage well enough. Close to an exit, but not obviously so-

    A hand on his back startles him. It’s right over where his mortal spot used to be, and Percy has to suppress the urge to rip the arm off and follow up with a fatal stab with Riptide. Percy turns to the bastard. Slightly taller than him, fake merfolk-green skin, brown eyes, looks about fifty or so, but that’s a lie because the guy is clearly a significantly powerful god, as powerful as-

    Oh. There are a handful of gods that are that powerful. Percy has met most of them, and knows enough of the rest to recognize them on sight. The scathing insult on the edge of his tongue dies, and Percy relaxes.

    “Dad.”

    Summary

    Poseidon is running out of time.

    Out of the corner of his eye, he sees something. A soul. As soon as he turns his attention towards it, it leaps away like a small penguin fleeing a leopard seal, scurrying down into a cavern. It moves quickly and fluidly like a ghost, keeping just out of sight. Poseidon hurries after it. Perhaps it can tell him where Percy is sheltering. Percy must be alive - all demigods share a connection with their godly parent. Poseidon would know if his son died. He would’ve felt it. It would’ve been unmistakable, an earthquake at sea, a hurricane on land. He would’ve felt the severing of his being from Percy’s soul. He would've.

    Summary

    “Leta was a taker,” Ms. Goldstein the younger says, her voice almost patronizingly soft, “You need a giver.”

    “Please don’t read my thoughts, Ms. Goldstein.” Newt asks.

    “It’s hard not to,” Ms. Goldstein says softly. “When people are hurting, their thoughts are the loudest.”

    And that - well. It would be a lie to say that Newt wasn’t hurting, but it would hardly be a fair assessment of the situation. The official story was that Newt had gotten expelled for bringing a Jarvey to Hogwarts, unleashing it onto a student who had gotten wounds large enough to warrant an overnight stay in Hogwart’s infirmary.

    The unofficial story however, was much more complicated and not something one could understand from a mere few seconds of legilimency.

    Summary

    “Ask me for sanctuary. I’ll protect you.” Hades had once offered the young son of Poseidon, many many years ago. He had thought of his late Maria di Angelo’s fate, and his two children he had been forced to abandon to the Lotus Casino for their own protection and the words had slipped out.

    Hades hadn’t expected the son of Poseidon to accept his offer then. Hades certainly hadn’t expected him to take him up on his offer now, over five years later.

    It hadn’t made any sense. Poseidon was overly protective of all of his children, especially the ones of partial mortal descent. Among them Perseus was the favorite and Poseidon didn’t miss a single opportunity to brag about him, or deliver threats should anyone allude to even looking at his son wrong.

    Summary

    “Hey Persephone, Hades, look what I found.” Hermes says. “Remember way back when Percy was writing down his quests and he asked me to beta-read them?”

    “Tell me.” Persephone says, sitting up and leaning towards Hermes with a glint of mischievousness. Not for the first time, Hades spots the half-sibling familiarity between them. Hades hopes another around of Hermes-Percy prank wars isn't about to start. The parthenon barely survived the first.

    “Percy’s initial description of Hades-”

    “Shut up-” Percy lunges off the sofa towards Hermes. Within a blink of the eye, the god of speed places the love seat between them. Demeter and Poseidon momentarily stop their bickering to look at the second generation gods.

    “-was rather spicy.” Hermes finishes, grinning as he dodges Percy’s increasingly motivated attempts to grab the book. “Would you like me to read it?”

    Summary

    “How much longer?” Percy asks.

    Hermes is about to deliver a witty comment that would cease Percy’s incessant whining when he spots trouble in the horizon.

    “Get out.”

    “We're going at 200 miles per hour on the highway in the middle of nowhere!” Percy says, incredulous.

    “Ready?” Hermes asks. Really, he’d love to explain the situation to Percy - communication is his domain after all - but there isn’t time.

    “What - you're serious?”

    Hermes pushes the eject passenger button, and the seat launches Percy into the air.

    Summary

    As soon as Percy can feasibly get sneak away, he does. He knows the palace like the back of his hand having grown up here, so it doesn’t take him long to go down to the dungeons. He approaches the cell, and instructs the guard to open the far one and then take a long break from his post.

    “I brought you some food.” Percy says, when the guard is no longer in earshot.

    Ambassador Hermes, an illegitimate child of King Zeus and Percy’s best friend lifts his head up from the cot in the cell. Its blasphemous that Hermes of all people would be imprisoned. Then again, compared to the other choices Triton has made for him, for their kingdom - its a drop in the ocean.

    “Your brother isn’t using his newfound power as King to starve me, you know.” Hermes says, with some irony upon spotting the platter of food.

    “So you don’t want any?” Percy teases. It's half hearted, and he doesn't even make a move to leave. “Fine. I’ll just take it back-”

    Summary

    Everything seemed to pass in between one blink and the next. Kissing Magnus, sliding the ring onto his finger, and then watching him leave for Edom. The look Magnus had given him before entering the portal is seared under his eyelids. Magnus had smiled at him, bittersweet after Alec said, it’s only Edom. You always come back, because the thought, the mere idea of Magnus being trapped in Edom for the rest of their lives, for all eternity is unimaginable.

    Unacceptable.

    There is no universe where Alec will let that happen. There’s no way that Alec will just leave Magnus in Edom.

    He has a wedding to plan.

    Summary

    “One last thing. I have a request from Lady Styx.” Athena says to the council of gods present, capturing everyone’s attention. Lady Sty, the deity of the River Styx, is one of the most powerful beings outside of Tartarus. Even Zeus doesn’t dare cross her. “On account of the sudden and dramatic increase in oaths being sworn on her river, she requests aid in management.”

    “Well.” Zeus says, looking straight at Percy. “I think we can all agree that the one who started the problem should be the one to fix it.”

    Summary

    Percy hasn’t told anyone how strong he’s become. That would only take a single push to break the fragile membrane containing his mortality.

    It's moments like these that remind Percy how close to godhood he is. It’s in the way Percy constantly feels like he’s larger than his physical body. He can feel the ancient underworld rivers running through Hades’s kingdom, and remembers how when he reaches for them they fight his control but ultimately bend under his will.

    If he stretches his senses, he can even glimpse his father’s domain all the way on the surface world, the ocean constantly churning. The sea is always in the back of his mind singing its siren song, beckoning him to accept his fate and reminding Percy of the non-insignificant power he holds over the very fabric of the world.

    Summary

    “Shut up.” Percy snarls. “Loyalty? You have no right to talk to me about loyalty. You and the other Olympians took everything from me, under the pretense of wanting to win the second giant war!”

    “It wasn’t a pretense-”

    “Don’t give me that!” Percy snaps, furious. Shaking with rage and fear, Percy approaches Hades and grabs the collar of his shirt, dragging him to eye level.

    “What you guys orchestrated wasn’t even worth being called a plan. Hera took your strongest leaders away, leaving both camps in disarray and distracted from the true threat: Gaea. She mixed both camps, crippling all the gods so you were utterly useless to do anything about Gaea’s army. And then you sent me into T- the pit. You know what kind of beings exist there. Akhlys. Nyx. Tartarus. Did you really think I wouldn’t switch to the winning side after everything you guys put me through?”

    Summary

    “Terrifying, isn't it?” Hermes whispers, with a soft smile.

    “Yeah.” Percy smiles. He looks down at the little bundle in his arms. The youngest Jackson in the family, just barely a week old. Percy carefully holds her in his arms as she sleeps. There's a hospital provided crib, but Percy doesn't have it in himself to let her go. She’s so fragile. Only a week old, completely helpless and dependent on him and her mother.

    Summary

    The tribe celebrates. Paul has tamed the great sandworm, their Shai Haddad and has officially gotten his Fremen name: Paul Muad'dib Usul.

    From the moment Stilgar had called him that, Paul had gotten a sick, bitter feeling in his stomach. He initially dismisses it as queasiness from riding the sandworm. It takes Paul hours of celebrating for him to realize the real reason why.

    His last name, his father’s name is gone.

    Summary

    Hermes transports them to his mom’s apartment. Emotionally exhausted, Percy flops down on the sofa and closes his eyes. The pain in his father's eyes is seared into the back of his eyelids, and the sounds of Tyson crying rings in his ears. The guilt forms a lump in his throat, threatening to choke him.

    “When are you going to tell them that you’re considering immortality?”
