do y'all ever think about the fact that bobby is literally chris' grandpa? like yeah, bobby is a father figure to buck. but buck is also chris' second dad.
that's a dynamic i am reminded of whenever i see eddie and bobby interact outside of the fire station and it's a dynamic that should be explored more overall.

You know where to find me — and I know where to look
Pairings - Clarisse La Rue x Fem! daughter of Athena! Reader
Tumblr media
One of your earliest memories was when you were 13. Running around with clarisse in your private catholic boarding school, skipping class and watching as she would constantly get into fights.
You both looked after eachother, clarisses mom was enlisted in the army thus she lived with her grandma who wasn’t the nicest and you.. well your dad seemed to only care about you when he needed something solved.
Forcing clarisse to sit on the schools bathroom sink counter you started to clean a cut on the girls cheek. Not wanting to even think about how you’ll get the blood off her light blue uniform top. “It’s not even my fault!” The young girl yelled. “If Jeremiah thinks ‘slap ass Friday’ is so funny then maybe he should get his ass beat every now and then”
You just nodded following along with what the girl spoke. Moving a frizzy curl out of the girls way you noticed how she scoffed. “I should just cut this off” she grabbed the loose curls shoving them into her messy ponytail. “Don’t do that” you sighed pulling her hands away from her hair. “You Just Need some help to keep your curls nice that’s all”
Clarisses cheeks flushed, she shoved your hands away as she looked to the side. “Whatever”
“Hey!” A teacher aggressively busted into the bathroom. “Skipping class really?! Both of You principal office now!”
Clarisse grabbed your hand pushing past the teacher and down the private schools halls. You laughed as you followed the girl around the school, running down the stairs and past the nuns.
Shoving into a janitors closet and shutting it before the teacher could catch up. You panted while clarisse who Just practically ran a marathon was fine. Turning on the light you plopped down onto a pair of stacked chairs. “How are You able to do that!?”
“Do what?”
“Run like That and not even be tired” you questioned. Clarisse just shrugged her shoulders. “I don’t really know I just am I a guess” she sighed sitting on a shelf.
Finally catching your breath you looked over “Hey clarisse?”
The girl set the tool she had been messing with down. “Yeah?”
“Will we always be best friends?” You quietly asked. Paying attention as clarisse had an annoyed look on her face she soon nodded. “Yeah.. cause you’ll always know where to find me”
You rolled your eyes “well I always know where to look” chuckling you reached out with your pinkie. Clarisse followed suit latching here onto yours. You knew what was between you and clarisse was far away from platonic but what did you know you were just some 13 year old kid.
The next morning clarisse was gone. Not a word not a letter nothing.. she had just left
You promised yourself you would never forget her. At first it started with not remembering how she spoke, then you forgot her face, and soon enough even her name you had completely forgotten.
———
Three years later.
After being chased by a hellhound and a few other angry monsters you found yourself at camp halfblood.
The weeks sorta merged together. However once you were claimed by Athena everything seemed to change, new found siblings. People wanting to be your friends and now finally not feeling like you were alone.
Through out your weeks at camp you had heard about a girl named clarisse. The name sounded familiar but you couldn’t place it exactly. The fact the mysterious girl avoided you to didn’t help either.
Annabeth Open the door agressivly throwing her dagger onto the bed. “What’s wrong?” You asked looking up from your book. “Nothing nothing.. I just got paired to lead a training class with clarisse”
“And what’s the problem?”
“She’s terrible What do you mean ‘what’s the problem’” your sister scoffed crossing her arms.
“I just meant that clarisse hasn’t done anything to me personally.. I don’t think I’ve even met her before” shaking your head you returned to your book.
Annabeth stayed quiet for a moment before grabbing the boom out of your hand. “Fine then, if you’ve never met her before then you should go lead the class with her.. besides it’ll be good for you”
Begrudgingly you accepted. Leaving your cabin you headed towards the arena, dagger strapped at your thigh.
The arena was loud and well… sweaty. Joining the kids who were sparring you made your way to a girl who stood crossed arm wearing Greek armor. “Uh hi? Your clarisse right” You stepped up to her. “I’m annabeths sister she wasn’t feeling well so I’m here to help you uh lead the class”
“You have any experience in battle” she rudely spoke not looking at you. “No b—“
“Then get lost I don’t need any dead weight” she scoffed before turning her attention back to the other campers who were sparring. “Hey! Did I not just say to stop stepping out!!”
You looked at the girl with a irritated face. “I’m not dead weight I can help”
Clarisse grabbed her spear before she harshly turned towards you. Just as she was going to say something she stopped. Looking at you for a second clarisse seemed to calm down. “Y/n?” She quietly asked.
Stepping back some you looked around confused. “Uh yeah.. that’s my name” you nodded awkwardly.
She took her helmet off tossing it aside looking at you excitedly. “It’s me? Remember? no fucking way your a demigod to! I should of guessed you were always the top of our class— gods how have you been”
At this point you were weirded out. “I’m sorry but I don’t know you..” She furrowed her eyebrows slightly fustrated. “What do You mean you don’t know me? We were best friends”
You just shrugged your shoulders apologetically. Clarisse nodded taking a moment to think before grabbing your hand, forcing it into a fist with your pinky sticking out. She linked her pinky with yours and gave you a slightly annoyed look. “You know where to find me”
It took you a few seconds to register what she said. After an uncomfortable amount of silence clarisse sighed, before she could pull away however you tightly linked your pinky with hers “and I know where to look” You smiled “oh my god clarisse!” you laughed hugging the girl tightly.
Some of The campers around stopped what they were doing, shocked at the fact clarisse was being hugged by a pretty girl. Quickly returning to what they were doing after receiving a hateful glare from clarisse.
The strong girl hugged you back tightly, allowing you to pull back you continued to grin. “Look at You! Wow you’ve gotten so pretty, and strong to gods” laughing you reached out to touch the girls face before noticing her hair. “And your hair— see what did I say all you needed to do was learn to take care of it properly”
A familiar rush flooded your body. How clarisses hands were now squeezing your hips with her body close to yours- so close you could smell her pine cologne. Your cheeks turned red once you realized you were playing with the girls hair
Clearing your throat you pulled back completely taking a few steps away from her. “Sorry I just uh.. I got to excited”
Clarisse shook her head “don’t worry about it.. anyways uh if you still wanna help with all this just grab a sword from over there ok”
You smiled in response. It had been years since you felt like that, Clarisse for some reason always made you get flustered… but that didn’t mean anything.
———
Over the next week you found yourself spending every free second with clarisse.
It was like a breath of fresh air. You both had changed a-lot from being 13 to 16 but the same spark was still between you both. You found it amusing how she could go from an Absolute bully to a sweet heart towards you.
What didn’t help was how attractive the girl was. Her muscular arms and face that was meant to wear greek Armor made you go weak in the knees. Being gay was something you came to terms with years ago but finding yourself falling in love with your best-friend was just cringe. Out of all the girls at camp you choose clarisse.. really
——
The best part of camp in your opinion was the bondfire. Being able to sit around a cozy setting with friends and family warmed your heart in more ways than one.
After some time you were approached by a girl named Willow who you later found out was a daughter of Hermes.
You’d be lying if you said you didn’t like her. She was tall, strong and had a charming face, And she clearly seemed to like you to. “Don’t lie to me pretty girl you’ve seriously never had your first kiss”
Shaking your head you let out a soft laugh. “No never, actually I’ve never had a girlfriend before” Willow scoffed, tucking a stray piece of hair behind your ear she leaned forward some. “Well.. I can offer an easy solution to both those problems— that is if you would like it” she tilted her head some.
Before you could answer however clarisse shoved Willow back from where she was making her almost fall out of her seat. “Clarisse what the fuck!”
“She’s not interested Willow, instead of preying on girls who don’t want you why don’t you go fuck around with one of your ex”
Campers looking over, embarrassed enough as it was you Grabbed clarisses arm pulling her away. Quickly finding the Athena cabin you threw the girl inside. “What was That” you almost yelled.
“What was What” she continued to play innocent, now messing around with you stuff— grabbing s mechanical pencil to mess with. “Stop Just stop! Clarisse a girl was finally showing Interest in me—-“
“Yeah a fuck girl who only wants to finger you then break your heart but god forbid I look out for you right!”
“I don’t care about that! It’s still the matter of fact someone liked me and you just—“
“Did you ever stop to think there might me other girls out there better than Willow who like you!”
At this point you were beyond frustrated. “Gods can You stop interrupting me!” You watched as clarisse awkwardly shifted her stance, now feeling bad you sighed walking over to the girl hugging her. “I know I’m new to this whole demigod life and you have no idea how thankful I am for having you here”
Clarisse squeezed you slightly. After a few moments you laughed. “What did you mean by ‘other girls here like me’ I’ve only been here for what like a month?” Clarisse didn’t respond however her actions told you otherwise. The shifting in her feet, the way her eyes avoided yours, how she held you— fuck clarisse liked you.
Once you realized it the daughter of ares knew you already figured it out. She cursed under her breath for a moment but was soon caught up in the fact you had grabbed her face and kissed her. The kiss only lasted for a second even though it wasn’t that great of a kiss it got the point across. “I like you I like you a lot actually uh clarisse your super cool and sweet and I ju—“ you started to anxiously ramble until she cut you off with yet another kiss this time it being more directed and sweet.
Pulling away you smiled, keeping your lips close to the girls “you know what I love about you.. how you always let me finish my sentences” the opposing girl just rolled her eyes making you laugh once again
———
Once you returned to the campfire you were confused as to why people were making teasing remarks at you and clarisse.. until annabeth pointed out your now messed up hair, flushed cheeks, wrinkled shirt and lastly the growing hickey on your neck.
———
Y/n - you are a sociopath these look like you tried to strangle me
Clarisse - Yeah Well you weren’t complaining when I was leaving them there

Screaming while thinking about how Dionysus got introduced to Olympus.
Beginning his life (if you don't count the Orphic myths) he's handed to Hermes who's constantly trying to find a babysitter for him while Hera is hunting him down. Eventually he goes to live with Rhea for a bit and then trains with Chiron before going out and exploring and stuff.
The Gigantomachy. Dionysus is either on the verge of ascending to godhood of a VERY VERY new god when Zeus announces it's time to go fight great-grandma's new batch of kids. Heracles is still kicking during this time, and Heracles is also sometimes there when Dionysus goes down to the Underworld to get his mother and ascend to Olympus, so they're around the same age-ish. So yeah, great introduction to the fam.
Then. The Trojan War. The Trojan War would only be maybe a decade and a half later, really. Considering Heracles is in the Gigantomachy, and in that one myth he accidentally kills (?) Chiron, Achilles is just there in the background. There's also something about him fistfighting the brother of Tyndareus, the (adoptive) father of Helen. Dionysus isn't mentioned in the Iliad (I don't think) probably because he and his new wife Ariadne are hiding under their blankets in absolute horror of Olympus. Imagine Dionysus chatting with Apollo or Poseidon after the Gigantomachy and then watching them absolutely go murderous during the Trojan War. Dionysus is just sitting there in the background while Athena drags Ares and Aphrodite and Hera whoops Artemis' ass.
And then??? Everyone just goes back to being chill again??? Apollo is no longer murdering absolutely everyone but instead defending his bestie Orestes in court??? Athena isn't being a crazy bloodthirsty madwoman and has taken up a new gig as a judge??? Dionysus turns to Hermes and is like "is this normal??!3?$$@" and Hermes just sighs really loudly and nods.

Random Borderlands Headcanon #11
Everyone knows that Zane Flynt knows quite a few of the Crimson Raiders (Zer0, Moxxi, etc.) from previous encounters, but no one realizes how far it goes.
He knew Salvador because he used to visit Ovejas when they were both younger. Zane was good friends with Sal's grandma.
He knew Athena because he was hired to assassinate her back before the Pre-Sequel. Took one look at her and decided to go have a drink instead.
He knew Claptrap from one of his many visits to Fyrestone. He and Dr. Zed used to drink together.
He knew Gaige because he was asked to be a guest judge in the science fair (the one where Marcie Holloway was subsequently turned into red goo).
Met Roland when the two of them happened to go fishing on Pandora sometime. Clicked surprisingly well.
Zane is a people person.

Pairings: Jake ‘hangman’ seresin x fem!pilot!Benjamin Reader
Warning: Angst Fluff Naval Inaccuracies mentions of death and mentions of the mission from the movie
Note: this is a bot of an AU where Iceman is fine and better!
Tumblr media
Jakes POV
“Daddy,” I hear a whisper next to me and a slight tap on my shoulder opening my eyes to see my daughter with a sad look on her face.
“What’s the matter Daisy?”
“Thena gone.” She replies tears brimming in her eyes and I shoot up out of bed, any indication that last night was a dream gone as I look at the tears threatening to fall.
“No baby maybe she just had an early start you know how she likes to wake up early to go make sure everything is safe for you.” She nods and starts making grabby hands indicating she wanted to be picked. I picked her up and headed toward the kitchen to start breakfast looking at the clock seeing that it was only 7am, Sarah wouldn’t be here for another half an hour to pick Daisy up. We eventually sat down for breakfast when there was a knock on the door. I opened it to see Sarah standing there a wide grin on her face as she stepped through the house.
“Hi miss Daisy” Daisy lifted her head with a small smile.
“Hi grandma Sarah”
Sarah shot me a confused look and I sighed normally Daisy would jump out of her seat for Sarah.
“Y/N got home last night, but was gone before we could wake up.” Sarah nodded immediately understanding the gloominess of the two Seresin’s.
“I am sure she will be home tonight Daisy, until then did you want to spend some time with me and Papa Ice and we can go to the zoo” Daisy head pops up and she sprints to her room to get ready suddenly excited at the sound of going to he zoo.
“I will grab some money for you to take her to the zoo, Sarah, thank you for looking after her.”
“Don’t you dare Jake, it is always our pleasure, since Ice got better he loves spending time with her and besides I know how hard it is for kids to grow up in this lifestyle.”
“Thank you” I say giving her a hug, for some reason this last deployment of Athena’s seemed harder than normally and now with this mission we are all stressed, the only silver lining was that Iceman was better lifting everyones spirits slightly. “Can you help Daisy get ready, I need to be on base in 30 mins.” Sarah nodded before walking into Daisy’s room.
After getting ready I waved to Sarah and Daisy before heading off towards base. When I arrived I walked into the classroom to noticed I was the last one to arrive with still no sign of Athena anywhere I start thing maybe she hadn’t been recalled and was just home early from deployment. As I took my seat next to Coyote, Warlock and Cyclone walk in explaining the details of the mission.
“And now to introduce the pilot instructed to teach all of you how to successfully fly this mission……Captain Pete Mitchell call sign Maverick.”
I turn to see Mav walking down the centre of the chairs, he hives me a subtle nod as I see Coyote Payback and Fanboy drop their heads while an angry look crosses Roosters face.
“What did you do Coyote”
“We throw him overboard about 1 min after you left last night.” I laugh lowly as Mad starts talking about the F-18 handbook.
“Today’s training will be basic dogfighting, you will be going up in pairs, first up Hangman, Payback and Fanboy, be ready in 15, I will meet you in the air.” We all start to stand up and head towards our jets, I see Rooster looking angry.
“Rooster man you okay?” He rolls his eyes at me
“Go away Hangman.”
“Okay but just so you know you can talk to me I know normally you would talk to Athena about it but you can talk to me.”
“I really thought she would be here.”
“Me too.” We turn to look as we hear a jet take off from the 2nd runway where the instructors planes normally are.
“Well that must be Mav that’s my cue, don’t let whatever is getting to you get to you Rooster.” I leave it at that and walk toward my jet before doing pre-flight checks. Once I was ready to go I lined up on the tarmac as Payback and Fanboy take off, after I have taken off we start idling above the training area waiting for instructions.
“Morning Aviators and welcome to basic dogfighting, you are not to go below the hard deck of 5,000 feet. The goal shoot before you get shot down.”
Mav starts through the radio before Payback interrupts.
“What happens if we don’t, sir”
“I shoot back.” I can here the snideness in his voice.
“How bout we put some skin in the game.”
“What are you thinking Payback?”
“Whoever gets shot down has to do 200 push ups.”
“Alright you are on Payback.”
“Guys. That is a lot of push ups.” My heart nearly plummets to the ground when I hear the voice through the radio, a voice I would no anywhere suddenly the sun is blocked out of my canopy and I look up as I see Athena had moved her jet so she was upside over my jet.
“Hey cowboy, miss me.”
“Shit is that…” Payback breaks through the radio and Fanboy finished the sentence
“Athena, shit.”
Readers POV
I giggle as I hear Payback and Fanboy swear looking down at Jake just able to make out the shocked expression, i knew he knew i was home but I had still managed to surprise him.
‘Alright boys, its on.’ I quickly break away from my inclined position getting into a fight position, I knew Jake was going to be the tough one to beat, i also knew he had a bad habit of leaving his wingman so I went after Payback and Fanboy first, the put up on hell of a fight radio for Jake who i had seen sneak up behind me arrogance in his voice.
“This fellas is how you kill a goddess.”
“Right Hangman, time to teach you a lesson,,,,you’re out Payback.”
“Copy Athena” i break away and Jake follows as i start flying toward the sun, i can hear him asking payback for help to which payback responds with ‘i’m dead dickhead.’ And I giggle knowing i am now out of jakes line of sight i pull the control stick and flip over the top to land behind him.
‘You’re out Hangman, next time don’t leave your wingman.’ I see him hit the canopy before we all head back to base. I was the first to land, after i landed i popped the canopy and climb down the wing as i hit the ground I was wrapped in a tight pair of arms.
‘I missed you too Roo.’ He didn’t say anything just hugged me tighter.
‘I havent seen you in what a year and you dont even call to tell me your back.’ Before i can answer two more sets of arms wrap around me I look to see both Bob and Phoenix hugging me
‘Good to see you both as well.’ I reach up and ruffle bobs hair to which he groans through a wide smile.
‘Phe, we need lots of drinks tonight, on me.’ She nods
‘I missed you thena’
‘Me too Phe.’
I spot Jake over Phoenix’s head I smile before sprinting across the tarmac, Jake smiles even wider as I leap in his arms and wrap my legs around his waist.
‘Miss me did you Thena.’
‘You know I did, sorry I didn’t call, I didnt know I was coming back till I was practically on the plane.’
‘Daisy was upset you weren’t there this morning.’ He says placing me on the ground. I lower my head, suggesting ice cream and movies before we go to the Bar tonight.
‘I gotta go see Mav, but I will see you all in the classroom soon yeah.’ And i take off towards where Mav is standing with Cyclone.
Jakes POV
I watch as she takes off running toward Mav and Cyclone so lost in my own thoughts I didn’t hear Rooster come up behind me
‘That was odd.’ I turn to Rooster.
‘What are you on about man she just needed to talk to Mav.’ I replied though Rooster was right we hadn’t seen each other in months and she said two sentences to me. Rooster just shrugged and walked towards the classroom where everyone else was gathering. I walked it taking my seat next to Coyote normally Athena would sit on the other side but right now she was standing still fully kitted up next to Mav. Cyclone moves to the front of the room gaining everyone’s attention
‘Now the she has graced as with her appearance can I introduce your team leader and co-instructor for this mission, the only pilot on active duty to be an Ace by having five air-to-air kills, and the best pilot that Navy has had in decades Lieutenant Commander Y/N Benjamin, call sign Athena.’ I turn in shock to look at Phoenix and Rooster who are also looking with at the front in shock as she moves to the front, Coyote taps my shoulder whispering in my ear
‘She is an Ace and got a promotion and you didn’t tell me.’
‘I didn’t know.’ And i turn back to the front of the room my full attention on Athena.
‘Most of you I know and have flown with before for some it is the first time, the point of these next few weeks is to teach you all how to fly this mission and get you all home safely.’
I took note of the way she was phrasing the mission objectives and how she was always saying you and not us, I made a mental note to talk to her about it in private, we all knew this mission was dangerous but the way she is speaking is that someone is coming home and that someone is her.
‘Now next in the air going up against Maverick is Rooster, Phoenix and Bob.’ Rooster shoots a small glare at her and she shrugs slightly.
‘As for the rest of you report to the rec room there is a schedule there of who is flying and when except Payback, Fanboy and Hangman.’ I flinch at my call sign coming out of her mouth through all our years she has always referred to me as Jake.
‘Ma’am where do we report.’ Fanboy asked.
‘To Hondo, Fanboy, you three owe me 200 pushups.’
Readers POV
I saw Payback and Fanboy groan as the head towards Hondo, I glance to Jake who looks hurt that i had kept the promotion and the fact i was now an Ace a secret. As he stood up i yelled out to him to get his attention to stay back.
‘Ma’am is there something i can do for you.’ I could hear the sarcasm in his voice with hints of anger
‘Cut it out Hangman, I was going to tell you I just hadn’t got time to.’
‘How could you not get time is your phone broken or something.’
‘I got told i was being recalled then shoved on a plane before i finishing packing my bag, by the time i got home I just wanted to sleep.’
‘What happened on you last mission Athena?!’ I saw his face soften as i struggled to control my emotions a flash of sadness making its way across my face, before i could answer Cyclone called me to report to his office.
‘I want to tell you Jake, but I don’t know if i am ready, tonight can we go together to get daisy and then maybe grab some ice cream by the beach.’ He just nodded in response and i patted him on the arm before walking to cyclones office.
‘Sir,’
‘Athena, how was it being back in the air after everything today?’
‘Fine sir, no issues at all it felt like i never left.’
‘Losing a wingman is never easy Athena if you need to talk to someone whether its professionally or Iceman you need to talk about it.’
‘I know thank you sir, with regard Iceman is helping me as he knows the details of the mission.’
‘Very well and well done on the promotion, I am sure you are happy’
‘Yes Sir, thank you.’ As he dismissed me and i headed toward the locker room hoping Phoenix was still in the sky. As i picked up the pace tears threatening to spill i crashed into a hard chest looking up to see who it was i widen my eyes in surprise.
‘Uncle Ice?’

Wars headcanons because it's a trend now??
He and Linkle are siblings, Wars is about 6 years older than her! They don't have other siblings.
He's a descendant of Twilight! They're distant relatives so Wars doesn't really recognize or know him! This headcanon comes from the fact Wars and Artemis/Athena are based on Twilight and Dusk the most, so yes Athena is a descendant of Dusk. Also I ship TP Zelink so theoretically Wars and Athena would be both descendants of Twi and Dusk and sk be distant relatives, but too distant to be considered family at all.
Wars was born in the countryside. A rural town was built around a well known ranch some time after Twilight’s adventure. And when Wars is a kid the ranch is inhabited by his grandmother, while he lives in a nearby house.
So, story time! His parents looked like good and respectable people. They didn't know much about swords, but the grandmother was secretly able with crossbows. When the first kid of the couple was born, they noticed the triforce mark and went crazy. They named him Link because he was going to be a hero, they began to spoil him, accommodate every whim, give him gifts like every day. The grandma pointed out it wasn’t good or healthy for him but the parents didn't listen. As soon as he could run without losing balance, the situation changed and even if he was still treated as the purest angel who couldn't be corrected or scolded (he couldn't do anything worng because he had the triforce, they believed), he began his sword training, that took hours every day and was exhausting. When he was 6 he got a sister, but apparently she didn't have a triforce mark on her hand. The parents were too focused on their Link and didn't bother to find a better name for her, they named her Linkle. While she was still loved, the parents treated the kids way differently. Linkle didn't get gifts every day, she didn't get training from a young age, she could make mistakes and get scolded (even when it was clearly Wars's fault). And mostly, the two kids couldn't spend time together the most of the times because Wars was often too tired to do anything other than sleeping after the training. The grandma couldn't stand that and decided to bring Linkle to her house/ranch and raise her by herself. She also taught her to use crossbows. She and Wars didn't meet again for years. In his teens Wars is sent to Hyrule Town to continue his training, it's hard for him at first because he was treated really differently at home. After being scolded too many times for acting superior, he learns modesty and teamwork. Then, when Wars is 21 and Linkle is 15, HW happens and they meet again. They're both heroes and they live at the castle. Their parents died in a fire some years before, and the grandma died shortly before HW.
Speaking of Linkle, she's the bearer of the rriforce if power. She didn't have it during HW because it was trapped in Ganondorf's spirit. After HW the triforce piece went back to the Sacred Realm but the day after it was already with Linkle.
Wars's hair is probably a darker shade of blonde, but he dyed it lighter. Why? Because Artemis/Athena is naturally a brunette like Dusk but chose to dye her hair blonde, and Wars tried her dye too!
Wars learned the scarf isn't really part of the tunic of the hero, and most likely a gift from his Zelda. That's one of the main reasons he's almost always wearing it, like Sky with his sailcloth!
Linkle will eventually teach him how to handle cuccos, he and Sky will be the "heroes with a long cape thing and the ability to hold cuccos"
Wind reminds him of his sister, he's 14 and Linkle is 16 during LU, their behaviors are kinda similar!
Yes his or Linkle's descendants will take care of the ranch in the future, one of these people is Makimi!

-her dad got remarried to a woman that literally started to hate her for "endangering her children" knowing DAMN WELL it wasn't her fault. Even if her stepmother changed for the better it wasn't always the case. -Step mom kept her from interacting with her step brothers and especially her father -she was tormented with nightmares of her biggest fear -she ran away at the age of 7. How about I say it louder? SEVEN! not enough? Lemme spell it out. S E V E N! she was SEVEN when she ran away. And for a time before she met Thalia and Luke she was ALONE she left her family and made her own. But it didn't last because a Cyclops nearly killed Thalia and she was turned into a tree and pronounced dead. -she had to get over that at the age of 7 because she arrived at camp the same age she left her previous home. -she had to bear the fact that Luke had betrayed them. Someone she looked up to and loved. -she had to be reminded of cyclops when Tyson came into the picture. -Yeah she accepted him as her own brother and family later but having a cyclops, the same thing that she thought took Thalia's life on the team bore down on her like betrayal hand the hands of Chaos and was pressing on her shoulders -speaking about pressing on her shoulders, let's talk about how she bore the weight of the sky. Percy got 2 visions. One where Luke passed the sky to Annabeth. The other when Artemis took the sky off of Annabeth's shoulders. These 2 visions were separate. Meaning that Annabeth was holding the sky for quite some time. Definitely longer than Percy. She was COMPLETELY drained and exhausted. More so that Luke left her to carry it alone. -she was told Luke died but couldn't believe it -Luke visited her but she couldn't bring herself to kill him. A promise she kept, but like didn't. -not as important but the whole "perachel" thing -her half brother died in front of her after passing his work to her -she then proceeds to get stabbed in the shoulder for Percy and nearly freaking dies AGAIN -the person she loved but then loved as a brother started to thrash her around, even if it was another entity in control -HER blade was the one that killed Luke. HER BLADE. imagine how she must have felt holding and fighting with it after -then she got a break -SIKE HER BOYFRIEND DISAPPEARED FOR 8 MONTHS CAUSING HER TO OVERWORK HERSELF TRYING TO LOCATE HIM -she was called worthless by Athena, her own mother, and was given a coin that could have led her to her death -oh they got reunited JUST BEFORE NEW ROME WAS BOMBED NEARLY WIPING ANY CHANCE OF BECOMING ALLIES -realizes she needs to go on a solo quest that ends with the mother of the spiders that have been tormenting her. Seems easy right? Yep! You could even do it with a broken ankle! -she gets the Athena parthenos 🎉🎉🎉 ….aaaaand promptly falls into Tartarus with her boyfriend -puts all her trust in Reyna, who she had probably interacted with for 20 minutes tops to escort the statue of her mother -demon grandmas blind her and make her think Percy broke up and left her -she watches her boyfriend nearly choke a goddess with some scary blood bending shit -she had to step down as a leader and leave Bob and Damasen. Do you even know how much that may have DESTROYED her!? -then she embarks to where her mom and soon-to-be father-in-law's rivalry started to then battle the literal Earth's children, get tossed back to CHB, quite literally, and promptly starts fighting like they weren't just done with mass murdering her great great grandma's other children -immediately thereafter practically watches Leo 'die' -as she is about to go to college and finally get an ounce of a normal human life her friend Jason dies. You guys don't even know how strong their bond must have been after all that. They are so similar but so different at the same time. No way that they didn't bond. -then she learns Nico is going back to Tartarus to get Bob and it hits her that she didn't even think of Bob. She felt so damn guilty
....
YET
She is scared of tiny spiders, but not of plummeting to her death from a set of monkey bars. Go figure.
YET
She looks beautiful

Previous | Next | Masterlist
Tumblr media
Once the camera is secured in a bag, you look around the jewelry section a bit more, hoping to find the ring you’ve been searching for the past fifteen years. 
When you were younger, your family decided to go on a cruise in the summer. You were just a week away, but it was enough for some thieves to enter your house in hopes of finding money, jewelry, or other valuable things that they could sell. 
One thing they took, the most important thing to you, was your grandma’s wedding ring. The thieves were caught a few weeks later, but all your stuff was gone. You have been looking at every antique shop or pawn shop in the vicinity ever since, hoping that somehow, the ring would have magically been placed there for you. 
But this time, like always, the ring isn’t there. 
You exit the store, looking for Rooster who is still talking to someone from the base. He winks at you when he sees you, rushing to end the conversation. “We’ll talk about this when I get back, okay? Just hold onto it for a while. Okay, bye” he hangs up and walks towards you. “You bought something?” 
“Yeah, I found the perfect gift,” you smile when he leans over to kiss your head. “You should stop doing that.” 
He chuckles, grabbing the bag so you don’t have to carry it around. “Why? I thought you liked it”
"That's exactly the problem," your confession causes him to burst out laughing, the sound warming your heart. 
“My, my, grouchy. And you were supposed to keep hating me”
“Oh, I still hate you.”
“No, you don’t” 
You sigh, letting your head fall in defeat. “No, I don’t” 
“So, lunch or dress? What are we doing first?” 
You think carefully before answering. “As much as I want something warm and sugary right now, we need to look for a dress. I’ll be all bloated later.” 
“Okay, but we’re getting pizza later,” he announces, opening his hand for you to take it. 
“Deal"
Tumblr media
"What about this one?" You say, showing Rooster the dress. It's strapless, and glittery. 
"You don't need all that glitter to shine, fly girl," he says, looking for the perfect dress. 
You can feel your cheeks heat up at his comments. He needs to stop being so casual with his flirting. 
Rooster grabs a red dress from the hanger. Is a spaghetti-strapped dark red dress; the skirt goes a few inches below the knees. "I like this one. What do you think?"
You look at it and are not so sure about the length. "I'll have to wear heels with that" 
"You don't want to wear heels?" he asks, looking at the dress. 
"They hurt like a bitch," you complain, knowing that you'll have to wear them one way or another.  
"We can have some flats in the car, and you change them when the heels become too much," he offers.
"Where have you been all my life?" You laugh, grabbing the dress to try it on. 
"Right in front of you, love" he smirks. 
"Do you practice in front of the mirror or something?" 
"Oh, no. It's all natural" 
You grab him by the collar of his jacket, pulling him down to kiss him. It doesn't matter how many times you do it; it still gives you a warm feeling inside. 
"You keep doing that, and I'll have to start practicing some new lines," he whispers while leaning down to kiss you again. 
"Stop! I don't want to get kicked out of the shop," you say, taking the dress. "Where are the changing rooms?" 
He points out where they are when his phone pings. "Wait a sec," he checks the message and smiles. "It's Jesse's toy." 
"The Paw Patrol lookout tower we couldn't buy because it was sold out everywhere?"
"Yeah, I asked the woman at the toy shop to send me a message if they happened to get more of them"
"What are you waiting for? If you don't go buy it now, someone else will!"
"But," he mumbles with a pout, "I want to see you try on the dress.." 
You chuckle. He's such a big baby. "The toy shop is only ten minutes away, I'll grab a few more dresses to try on, and I'll wait for you in the changing room, okay?" 
He nods and kisses your cheek before almost sprinting out of the shop. You shake your head while laughing at his antics, looking for more dresses. You're sure you're going to end up buying the one Rooster showed you, not because it's his choice or something. It's a really cute dress. 
Having found three more cute dresses, you head to the changing room. You lock the door and try them on, one by one. You leave the red one for last, so that Rooster can be here to see it. 
The green one is a big no. It doesn't look good on you. The black one looks good, but maybe isn't appropriate for a Christmas party. You take a second look at that blue one, and it's not even worth a try. It's really horrible. 
You put on the dark red velvet gown that Roos had chosen. Yes, that's the dress. really Christmassy and adorable 
There's a soft knock on the door, and you make sure you're not showing anything before opening the door a few inches, just enough to see who is knocking. Just in case it isn't Rooster but the salesperson. Rooster's face is not the one you see on the other side, nor is it the salesperson's. 
It's Solo’s. 
Before he can even say anything, you close the door and lock it, panic rushing through your body. You know you’re safe as long as you’re inside the changing room. There’s no way Solo can burst in without alerting the other people in the shop. That doesn’t mean you can stay there forever. Should you call the police? Not an option. The police station is too far away; it’ll take them forever to come. That only leaves you an option, but you don’t want to. 
"Come on, Thena, open the door," Solo says to you as you watch the doorknob turn. He’s trying to enter. “You’re being overdramatic, honey. I just want to talk” 
His voice makes you feel nauseous. You look around the room, grabbing the hanger of one of the dresses you had tried on. Maybe you could use it as a weapon. No, it’s impossible. The moment you try to open that door, he’s going to attack you. You feel the hanger slip from your hands as you grab your bag, rummaging through it until you find your phone. 
“Please don’t be driving.” You search for Rooster’s phone and call him. “Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up,” you whisper to yourself, almost screaming, when Solo bangs on the door a few times. 
“Open the damn door, Y/n!” 
You start shaking, fearing that he might get inside the small room at any moment. 
"Grouchy, I’m driving. Can you wait?” Rooster’s sweet voice makes you start crying. It's as if he's standing right next to you, but you know he isn't. “Are you crying?” 
The only thing next to you is a monster banging on the door and trying to break it down. 
“He’s here, Roos,” you let out between sobs. You can hear him slam on the brakes, and cars behind him are honking at him. 
“Who’s there?” 
“Solo”
“Are you safe?” 
Solo keeps talking. Rooster is talking too; everybody is talking. The banging, their voices. Everything is too much. You just want it to stop. You just want the world to become silent for a second. 
“Thena, answer me!” Rooster exclaims. 
“He’s trying to enter. I don't know how much the door is gonna resist!” 
“Don’t hang up, you hear me? Do not hang up.” You focus on his labored breathing and the sound of his steps. It seems like he’s running to get you. He keeps saying things, but you cannot hear them. Is he saying sweet things? Is he talking about how close he is to the shop? Is he telling you that everything’s going to be okay? You can’t know. 
You only hear the ringing in your ears, your own heartbeat, and your loud breathing. 
Suddenly, the doorknob stops twisting. Is he gone? You stare at it for a minute. Two. A whole eternity. 
It doesn’t move anymore. But you’re afraid he’s waiting outside for you. You're afraid of opening that door to flee this shop and finding his disgusting face in front of you, his figure hidden in one of the other two changing rooms. 
When the doorknob twists again, you scream. 
“Thena, it’s me. Can you open the door for me?” His voice comes softly from the phone and from the other side of the door. You get up from the floor, moving away from the corner where you have been all the time. Unlocking a door shouldn’t scare you like this. 
“Is he gone?” you whimper. 
“He’s gone” 
The door opens, and as he said, Rooster is the only person standing in front of you. His eyes scan your body, looking for any sign of discomfort or pain. He’s making sure that you’re not hurt. He slowly raises his hands, moving them toward your arms. When you step back, not wanting to be touched at the moment, you swear you can see his heart breaking into a million pieces.
“Are you okay?” 
“Physically, yes. Mentally… I don’t think I’m gonna walk into a shop in years,” you whisper, goosebumps running down your spine now that the adrenaline is leaving your body. 
Rooster takes off his jacket, offering it to you. “Cover yourself, let’s get out of here.” 
“I need to get out of this dress” 
“The dress… Just you wait to know what the salesman has done” 
You need to know how you got into this situation. “Tell me”
He shakes his head, grabbing the clothes you were wearing before. “Not now.” 
“Rooster, please” 
He sighs, leaning against the mirror. “Solo payed him to close the store for an hour so he could be alone with you” 
You blink several times, the information seeming to be unable to register in your brain, “He did what?” 
“The guy thought you were his girlfriend. And Solo told him that he just came back from a deployment and wanted to surprise you”
“How do you know?” you ask, moving closer to him. A part of your body doesn’t want to be touched, but another part needs the comfort and the warmth of Bradley’s body. It's like your body needs to know he’s there, even though you’re seeing him. Your body needs to feel him close to stop shaking. 
“That idiot didn’t want me to enter the shop until ‘the happy couple had finished with their reunion’. When i got in here, Solo was gone.” 
“You didn’t punch the salesman, right?” for some reason, the idea of him hitting that dumb guy makes you chuckle.
“I’m saving myself for that son of a bitch” 
You nod, taking a deep breath and closing your eyes. “I need to get out of this dress. Can you stay outside?”
He nods, handing you the clothes. “Do you want me to clos-”
“No!” you reply quickly, you don’t want to be alone in there. 
“Okay, I’ll let the door wide open. I’ll look away” 
New fear unlocked: red velvet dresses and changing rooms. 
Tumblr media
When you get home, you thank God that the house is empty. Maybe they have gone to buy the Secret Santa gifts, like you did. You’re so glad you bought the camera before everything happened. Your head is not in the right mindset now to care about gifts. 
"Where do you wanna spend the rest of the day?" Rooster asks, not wanting to leave you out of his sight again. 
"Honestly, I just want to change my clothes and get into bed" 
He sighs, nodding. "You need to eat something, though." 
"Maybe later… Do you have that Polaroid album you talked about before?" 
"In my bag. Wanna see it?" 
"Yes, please" you say, moving upstairs. 
Once in the room, Rooster offers you one of his hoodies. "I can't hug you right now, but maybe the hoodie can?" 
How can this be the same guy that flies an F-18? How is he the same guy that…almost took everything away from you so many years ago. Why did he ever do that? You need to know. Now. 
"Bradley"
He hums, waiting for your question. 
"Why did you try to pull my papers for the Naval Academy?"

is my will weak? am I posting another out-of-context snippet from my ever growing mpreg!Buck fic? yeah, I can't help it. I love this one and it's gonna be a long haul to the finish line (probably closer to 100k than 50k) and I just need all the cheering and excitement I can get, and it's gonna be such a ride, the hurt/comfort and angst, the emotional whiplash, the softness, and the enemy to lovers!
Anyway, this snippet is of Bobby and Athena just being the best, and I adore them both
“Is it safe to assume you brought him home with you?” Bobby asked, holding his coffee to the side so he could lean in and kiss his wife.
It might be late, but in his line of work, coffee became an all occasion and any time of day beverage.
Her lips quirked upward against his as she hummed. “Like you needed to ask.”
Of course, he didn’t. It was in her nature—family and pack were paramount in Athena’s life, as they should be, and when it came to Buck, there was no questioning his place with them.
He chuckled, pecked her lips again, then went to sit with his coffee on the chair beside her. “So?” he asked, taking a sip. “How is he?”
“You mean more like, is he, right?” She raised a brow, then sighed at his shrug. “Well, I think you already know, but yeah, he’s with pup.”
And then it was his turn to sigh, resting the mug on his knee. He’d spent the rest of the shift replaying the last few weeks, shocked by the emotions it stirred. The ache and guilt at what it could mean, and now knowing, his inner demons warred against his heart.
It was a strange thing to feel happiness for something but also such sadness, as he might be getting his first grandchild, but it was a reminder of another thing he'd never get to experience with his first pups, those he’d lost in the fire.
He turned his head, watching her for a moment, taking in her beauty and just being grateful for what he did have.
A familiar look, brow lifting came over her face. “What’s got you all heart-eyed, not that I mind?”
He shrugged, then smiled. “Hadn’t expected this, but I don’t know, I think you’d make grandma-hood look pretty sexy.”
“Grandma-hood?” she laughed, shaking her head, then fixing a look in his direction. “Don’t you think you’re jumping the gun? I haven’t even told you if he’s keeping it.”
Actually, he didn’t need her to—it was there in her eyes—but he played along. “That’s true, so, let me ask, is he?”
Another sigh, then an even softer smile. “He is—he’s scared half to death about failing—but then, weren’t we all like that the first time around?”
“Oh yeah, terrified, actually.” He sipped his coffee. “And the alpha? I mean, I’ve been thinking it over, and morning sickness is one thing, but I’m already a little worried about him developing issues from not having him around.”
And at the mention of the alpha, Athena’s jaw tightened, then a sharp scoff cut the air. “Alpha, more like some fucking piece of shit knothead,” she hissed, looking ready to show her canines. A shadow had settled over her face. “We talked on the way over here, and he told me some things he’d left out before—like that—that—scum had just yanked free, Bobby! He didn’t even care if he hurt him—just ripped free and fucking bolted.”
She took a controlled breath. “I’ll tell you one thing, he’d better not show his face near me, because I’m liable to tear him limb from limb—don’t think I won’t.”
Bobby put up his free hand in a show of surrender. “Hey, if I’ve learned anything, it’s not to mess with a pissed off mama when it comes to her pup. You’ll get no arguments from me.”
Athena nodded. “Good,” and then she smiled a bit, looking at him. “He is our pup, isn’t he? One of my babies?”
“Pretty sure you claimed him within the first day,” he bit back a smile.
“Yeah, I suppose I did—and now he’s giving us our first grandbaby. When did we get old?”
Shaking his head, he finished the last of his coffee, setting the cup on the table, then stood, wiggling his finger in invitation. “Come on, grandma—let’s take this to the bedroom. I have a feeling we’ll need the sleep.”
Standing, she bumped her shoulder into his side. “Sleep, huh? What—you worried I’m gonna break a hip?”
He kissed her temple, a little laugh escaping as he wrapped an arm around her waist. “Well… you’re the one that said we’re getting old.”
She slapped his chest playfully before pulling him toward their room. “We’ll see about that, Grandpa.”

caerus (god of opportunity and luck) headcanons since my oc is his kid
youngest child of zeus
I imagine him as a mix of apollo and loki
not a good father, he's there but disappears quickly just as opportunity does
If his kids ever try to reason with him he'll probably just say "not the right time, not convinent" as an excuse
in his more modern form he has a curly mullet
wears leather clothing with wings on the back (daryl dixon who?)
caerus cabin hcs
surprisingly most caerus children get along with tyche along with her kids (caerus and tyche are together)
caerus kids don't have any real powers like demeter or hades kids, they're more like athena kids where they have an affinity for knowing when to do the right thing at the right time.
almost like a bell goes off in their heads, they can 'sense' an opportunity coming along and willingly take it
caerus kids are good with ranged weapons, like archery, throwing knives, slingshots, etc
caerus will sometimes gift his kids an object that helps with luck or the ability of flight. for example, my oc has a magical mini balance scale ⚖️ one side means no, the other yes. when asked a question it will weigh to the best possible decision.
caerus kids unfortunately experience a lot of near death experiences, they somehow survive when they shouldn't have
whether it was their father secretly helping them or just their luck, who knows
even before getting claimed, it is common for a caerus kid to have survived a car or airplane accident
others might encounter a monster and make it out last minute or even killing it
but when a caerus child does end up dying, it is very tragic for all involved.
caerus is secretly devastated, knowing that there was nothing he could have done because their luck has worn out
...moving on, this might make caerus cabin with the highest surviving half-blood children
when claimed, a mini winged balance scale icon appears above their head, for a couple of hours they have imaginary wings and flowing hair. like how water makes your hair kinda float
caerus kids are known to have "wise eyes", flowing hair, curious birthmarks that form shape of wings
caerus kids get along with, tyche cabin, athena cabin (they share a common thirst of knowledge), apollo cabin (their affinity for archery), hermes cabin
cabin headcanons
their cabin is painted white with windows and shutters on each side. on the door there is two wings and a scale carved in.
for the interior, it is mostly spacious with a few living spaces for campers to play chess, cards, etc in
in the center there is a massive pillar that is designed to look like a scale which holds up the ceiling.
the cabin basically looks like a white styled casino along with some grandma country vibes
they have a mini library and storage to keep any weapons or magical items
since caerus doesn't have too many kids, campers sleep in large twin beds while the counselors sleep in queen beds. each bed has their own bedside drawer, a small closet along with retractable curtains for privacy and such.
there is also neon white lights on the wall directing to the bathroom or mini kitchen, etc
that's it!! this was rlly fun, if I should do more comment down a god(goddess) I should do next (preferably a minor god)

Get to Know Your Fanfic Writer
tagged by @cha-melodius. Thank you!
I was tagged by @bebx, thanks!
When did you post your first ever fanfic?
July 2021. This is not an indication of how long I've been in fandom. I've been reading since [ahem] 1998-ish. Just an indication of how long it took me to get around to committing something I was willing to show the world. Thank you pandemic.
First character(s) you wrote for:
Published? TK/Carlos
Unpublished? Umm, Merlin/Arthur Academic AU. And/or The Old Guard Academic AU. There's a theme here.
Main character(s) you’re currently writing for:
TK Strand, Carlos Reyes, assorted members of their families
Character(s) you haven’t written about before but plan on writing about soon:
Hmm, maybe FirstPrince, or a 911 OG crossover. I do love Bobby and Athena.
Fandom(s) you’re currently writing for:
Lonestar
Platonic pairing(s) you currently write for:
Nothing specifically, but I do really enjoy writing Carlos and Paul being friends and occasionally giving each other some hard truths. I also enjoyed exploring Carlos's relationship with his sisters in the S4 Interstitials - waiting to be joss'd so hard next season.
Romantic pairing(s) you currently write for:
TK/Carlos
Your top 3 tags on AO3 (if you post your works on AO3):
Hmm, I'm actually not great at tags beyond characters and specific content warnings. I guess 5+1,and then maybe Enzo, and canonical references to things like drug use. Wow, I really need to get better at tagging.
Your current platform where you post your works:
AO3. I come from the days before AO3 and you will pry it away from my cold dead hands.
Snippet of the wip you’re currently working on:
TK flips through the case notes.  “All of these are Kist systems?”  Matt nods.  TK shrugs.  “They found a security flaw. Once they found that getting in and out would be easy, no need to rock the boat.”  He catches Carlos’s eye and gestures at one of the lists.  “They took a Grandma Moses, but left the Cassatt.”
Matt nods, catching up to TK train of thought.  “The Grandma Moses is easy to fence, good money but hard to trace just because she was so prolific. The Cassatt is unique.  You fence that and people start asking questions.”  
TK gestures at the handwritten list Matt’s holding  “That list is the expensive shit that’s easy to sell, that’s what they came for.  Anything else they took is personal or on commission.  You had any hits on any of these things turning up on the open market?”  
Matt shakes his head. “Every local branch has had feelers out, nothing’s popped yet.”
TK looks at the map on the table.  “They’re probably not fencing where they’re working, and if they’re moving as fast as it looks like from this map then they’re making it hard for the Feds to track them.”  He gives Matt a shark like smile.  “Nothing is as helpful as an FBI turf war.”

It'ss the fact that Annabeth Loves dogs but ahe and Mrs O'Leary had seemingly no interaction when this daughter of Athena trained Cerebus with nothing but her words and a red rubber ball on her first try when she saw the huge three headed hellhound for me.
Don't deny to my face that Annabeth would coddle the big woof with skills and pets unconditionally and Percy would be like "Wise girl no, you'll spoil her" and both dog and girl are incredibly protective of each other.
•Imagine post the battle of Manhattan, it's sunset and Percy promised Annabeth to take her to the bottom of the ocean for their date where they can get peace and quiet from the campers and their peeking (coz its been five years and Percabeth finally got together baby my ship sailed) and Annabeth was in awe of the scenic underwater view. So it's sundown and he is searching for his girlfriend who is nowhere to be found. And he stumbles into his Hellhound in the forests and he goes over to pet her but she growls at him warning him to keep quiet. Mrs O'Leary bends down to reveal Annabeth sprawled over the soft cuddly mass of black fur with her sketchbook and pencils, taking a nap and Percy being the hormonal teenage simp he is, melts at the sight.
•Couple years down the road where Mrs O'Leary is visited by the couple at camp goes nuts sniffing Annabeth's abdomen with her snout and trying to get a closer listen becauseee in her doggy mind "OMYFLOOF LADY HOOMAN HAS BABY HOOMAN INSIDE. HOOMAN DO YOU SEE THIS. BABY HOOMAN IS HERE" Annabeth understands and Percy is confused until Annabeth asks him "Seaweed Brain, how do you feel about being a dad?" And the most goofiest and biggest grin forms on his face as he picks her up and spins her around.
*Cue the doggo being the world's most protective aunt and bodyguard. Like this percabeth kid might as well grow up with a silver spoon because their parents are unpaid celebrities. Mom is the rich founder of the famous Architecture firm and was Architect of Olympus. Fucking Olympus, while the dad is the hero of Olympus twice and is a well known Marine Biologist and Son of Poseidon and had the best Grandma in the world. Oh yeah they also have a hell hound chaffeur who doubles as a bodyguard and cuddle toy. *

Part 1: “A Baby”
Summary: They tell Sally and Paul
They wait to tell people. It’s safer to wait until after the first trimester, Annabeth knows this, but it’s the hardest secret to keep.
At work, it’s easy. She sits in her office, meets with clients, and goes about her day as if nothing has changed. Except, she doesn’t have that second or third cup of coffee throughout the day. She sticks with the one Percy makes her at home every morning.
At home, with Percy, it’s easiest because he knows. He tries not to treat her any different but Annabeth can see how having a pregnant fiancée is disrupting his routine a bit. Like offering to do the dishes so she doesn’t have to stand for too long. To which, Annabeth usually replies that she sits all day and wouldn’t mind. So Percy dries and Annabeth washes as he tells her about his day.
It’s hardest around their friends and family. Sunday night dinners with Sally and Paul become acting practice. They’re decent liars and it’s not like Sally or Paul suspects anything. It’s really when they ask about wedding planning that it’s harder not to tell them.
When Sally asks, “when are we going dress shopping?” All Annabeth pictures is a tight mermaid dress hugging a little baby bump.
When Paul asks how much of their godly side is invited, Annabeth sends up a prayer to everyone up at Olympus to not interfere. She designed their new temples after several thousand revisions, they owe her this at least.
In all honesty, Annabeth isn’t sure if Athena would come if invited. She knows Poseidon would likely show up, their reception venue is at the beach. Annabeth’s mom never really approved of Percy even though they’ve saved the world twice.
Estelle is the only one they can trust. All she asks about is playing dress up or staying late enough to read her bedtime stories.
But Annabeth is counting the days until her second trimester begins. Even as she crosses over, she starts to feel differently about keeping this secret.
It’s something that’s just theirs right now. Does she really want to share this with the world? If they tell Sally and Paul, they can’t leave Annabeth’s dad and stepmom in the dark. Then, her brothers will know too. And it just goes on from there.
When Percy comes home, he finds Annabeth in their bedroom. It’s a rare day when she arrives home first. Her last meeting had ended at 4 so she finished up some work from home. Her laptop is pushed aside and she’s laying half under the covers. Not asleep, just deep in thought.
Percy moves the laptop from the bed and crawls in behind her.
“What’s going on?” He asks, “you’re thinking very loudly.”
“If it’s so loud, you should already know what I’m thinking.”
“You’re worried about telling my mom about the baby,” he says, instantly proving that Annabeth should stop doubting him.
Percy has always understood her best.
“What I can’t figure out is why, you know she’s going to be thrilled to be a grandma. Gods, she talks about our future kids like they already exist sometimes.”
“One does,” Annabeth comments.
“No, like with a full blown personality and stuff. This one,” he touches her still flat stomach, “barely has fingers and toes.”
“What if she thinks it’s too soon? We didn’t plan to get pregnant.”
“Annabeth, if you honestly think my mom is going to lecture us about having this kid, you’re crazy. We live together, we’re getting married, we are mostly responsible.” She elbows him. “Okay you’re responsible and I’m sometimes adult enough to do taxes.”
He can’t see her smile but she does it anyway.
Life gets away from them. They miss Sunday dinner, which postponed telling Paul and Sally for almost two weeks.
But they’re back at the dining room table again. Percy is trying to tell his mom not to pick up everyone’s dishes. In the end, he and Paul load the dishwasher together. Estelle is telling Annabeth about her new rubber duck.
“He’s got a top hat!”
“Why don’t you go grab him?” Sally says, “he’s on the bathroom counter.”
Estelle sprints upstairs yelling “Mr. Magic Duck!” all the way.
Percy and Paul come back to the table. Annabeth grabs Percy’s hand. They’re sitting directly across from his parents. Two people who have always accepted her. Sally who truly was the mother Annabeth needed.
Telling Sally first meant the world to Annabeth. At first, they wanted to do something grand but it didn’t really matter how they did it. It was going to be special no matter what. It was going to be memorable no matter what.
“She’s so excited about this duck,” Paul tells them, smiling.
“We’re really excited too,” Percy replies.
Annabeth stares at him, like seriously that’s the best segway he could give her.
“I’m pregnant.”
It’s like they don’t hear her at first but Annabeth knows they did because the table is silent. Then Sally throws her chair back, muffles her sobs and pulls Annabeth up and into a hug. Paul is saying something to Percy, likely congratulations, but Annabeth is too absorbed by Sally.
Her hugs are all healing. It’s like a superpower.
“I am so happy for you,” Sally says. “Both of you.”
She lifts her head up from Annabeth’s shoulder and pulls her son into the hug.
It’s then when Estelle returns, duck in hand.
“Why is mommy crying?” She asks Paul.
“She’s very very happy right now.”
Sally lets go of Annabeth and Percy and turns to her daughter.
“Look! Mr Magic Duck!”
When Sally begins to laugh, Annabeth joins in. Percy wraps an arm around her shoulders and kisses her cheek.
“Stopping Sally Jackson from happy tears? That is indeed a magic duck.”

For a holiday (and forevermore) - chapter 30
Chapter 30: Christmas IV (excerpt):
 “Athena, Bobby, meet Nina Buckley-Diaz.” he said proudly, lifting her up a bit and showing her off. “Do you wanna hold her?” Buck added, looking at Bobby with those bright eyes.
“Of course.” Bobby whispered, and before he even finished saying it, Buck was placing the baby in his arms.
“Look, it’s your grandpa Bobby.” he said to Nina, who was looking up at Bobby with the exact replica of Buck’s eyes, and Eddie could see tears in his eyes as he turned his head towards Buck. Who was now panicking a bit. “I- I mean, if you’re okay with being called- I mean, it can be pops, or- or, you know, just Bobby-” he started rambling.
“Babe.” Eddie cut in, and smiled reassuringly when Buck looked at him, and he took a deep breath and relaxed a bit. Eddie wished he sat next to him, so that he could hold his hand. But this was Buck’s moment with his father figure, so he sat it out.
“No, Buck, it’s okay.” Bobby rushed to say, voice thick and shaky, tears welling up and one actually escaping down his cheek. Athena reached over, from the other side of Buck, to wipe it off gently, with a fond smile. “I’d love to be grandpa.” he whispered, eyes on Nina, not looking away.
“Does that make me grandma?” Athena finally chimed in, smiling brightly.
“If you want to be.” Buck grinned sheepishly. “Coolest grandma ever. Don’t tell your mom or abuela.” he quickly added, pointing at Eddie, and they all chuckled quietly.
