    Summary

    Percy was seven the first time he woke screaming, the taste of blood in his mouth and the howling of hounds resounding throughout his head. His mom rushed into his room to cradle him in her arms. When she asked, he bit his tongue, told her only of dogs chasing after him. He didn’t tell her of the boy with the goat legs, the pain of being torn apart, and the warm light that engulfed him at the end. She held him until he fell back asleep. Elsewhere, a young daughter of Zeus made her final stand.

    Percy was nine when he opened his eyes, phantom lightning crawling over his skin and the echoes of a woman’s last moments still ringing in his ears. If he closed his eyes, he could still see the twin onyx eyes staring back at him.

    When his mother told him the story of his namesake, of Perseus the son of Zeus, he didn't tell her he already knew. Had already seen a mother and her infant set adrift in a raging storm, watched a boy travel far and slay monsters for the sake of his mother’s safety. But he didn’t tell her this. He was young, but he knew already what happened to people like him. People who see.

    He was no prophet; he would not suffer their fate. He would bite his tongue and let the prophecies pass him by.

    Summary

    “Dick…”
    Right. He needed to focus.
    “Little Wing?” Dick’s tone lost the harshness to it, as if sensing that Jason was teetering on the edge. He could always tell when Jason needed the grounding. He always knew. Could feel it from a mile away.
    “Dick, I think…I think you have a son.”

    He closed his eyes, surrendering to the darkness. He forced his heartbeat to slow, and an eerie calmness washed over his thoughts. The last image that flickered through his mind was Aunt May’s lifeless eyes.

    Peter hoped he wouldn’t wake up again.

    Summary

    When he’s sent to an unfamiliar city in an entirely different universe, Peter sees no choice but to pick up his work where he left off. It’ll be tough, since he doesn’t know this place like he does New York, but it’ll all be worth it in the end.

    And this time, he won’t be caught.

    After all, to catch Hydra’s former greatest asset? It’d take nothing less than the world’s greatest detective.

    Summary

    Given all the things that had happened to him, one would expect Timothy Drake to have become inured to the unexpected. And for the most part, this was the case. However, some things were just so goddamn weird that he had no idea how to deal with them.

    Getting blown up in a warehouse and somehow thrown into a different dimension and around twelve years into the past would be one of those things. Everything he had, gone in seconds. But that didn’t mean things were hopeless. In fact, there was a great deal of hope around him, and a great many things to fix.

    After all, never let it be said that Tim was one to waste an opportunity.

    Summary

    It started, as most ridiculous things did at Camp Half-Blood, with a single whisper.

    "Did Percy get taller?"

    "That’s not just taller," Mitchell from the Aphrodite cabin said, emerging like a gossipy meerkat. "He got *hotter*."

    Katie rolled her eyes. "He’s always looked like that. You people are just noticing because he got a haircut."

    "And is that...a jawline?"

    "You could cut celestial bronze with that jawline," someone muttered in awe.

    ---

    By lunchtime, the whisper had become a full-blown joke circling the camp like wildfire.

    “Percy’s not actually a Poseidon kid. We’ve been lied to,” said Malcolm from Athena cabin, not even trying to be subtle. “That boy walked out of Aphrodite’s cabin, got lost on the way to his own claiming, and Poseidon just took him in as a favor.”
