    Summary

    The war is over.

    When King Cepheus of the emerging kingdom of Arzawa attempts to invade the Kykladic Islands, he is unprepared for the ferocity and skill of the soldiers and mariners who defend their homeland, and for the raw, wild power of Perseus, the young prince who commands them.

    Forced to retreat in defeat, he now desperately treats for peace with Perseus and his retinue of aligned lords in an encampment on the island of Naxos. He has agreed to pay tribute to the prince, but now, in the final stages of discussion, the topic turns to the matter of King Cepheus’ armies, who are camped on the far side of the island. What is to be done with them? What must be offered to Perseus to assuage his wrath, to prevent him from raising the fury of the seas in one final act of vengeance?

    Cepheus only has one treasure remaining to barter with - his daughter, the beautiful princess Andromeda.

    Will he sacrifice her to the prince of white waves, offering his own flesh and blood to that always-ravenous monster of the depths?

    (And if he does: how much might she enjoy being devoured?)

    Summary

    The titans have won the war, the child of the prophecy was killed, and what remains of the demigod alliance is hidden underground. Many believe that the great prophecy was false, and that another will be revealed in time, but the sudden introduction of a new face throws everything into question all over again.

    [pjo+hoo (kinda), retains elements of canon]

    Summary

    "Some students find it hard to find a poem that they identify with," she said simply, even tone belying the gravity of the look she was giving him. "I…I can imagine that you, perhaps, might be one of them."

    For a moment, he just stared back at her, heart now thumping almost painfully fast as he tried to decide how to respond to that. She was right of course, but now that the moment he'd been waiting for had definitely arrived, was he really prepared to do this?

    "Are we talking about poetry?" He finally asked, mouth dry, as though he didn't already know the answer to his own question, "Or are we talking about…something else?"

    Or, a week in the life of Percy's senior year, featuring: a poetry project, a swim meet, prom, several identity crises, and maybe, just maybe, a long-overdue conversation with a certain sharp-eyed teacher.

    Summary

    --

    “Well beautiful, you can either take a chance with a dashing rider, or take a chance with the Grimm, but I ain’t gonna force your decision either which way…”

    Blake stared at the gloved hand being offered down to her for a moment, hesitating, but as the approaching growls and howls grew louder she threw caution to the wind and grasped it, allowing the blonde woman to pull her up into the saddle of her horse.

    “Two questions; are you sure we’re going to be fast enough?” Barely having time to settle in before the blonde gave a snap of the reins, Blake jolted as they began to speed away. “And what the hell is a Grimm????”

    --

    When a breakdown leaves Blake’s car stranded as a strange fog rolls over the countryside, she finds herself swept into a world that has apparently always hid in the periphery of her own; the flickered movements in the corners of mirrors, the home of the glinting particles in sunbeams. And it has no intention of letting her go now that it has her.
