•Wait for me…•

Imagine it’s 1944, Aemond goes to war and he parts without knowing your feelings for him. What then?

Warnings: N/P= the name of the place of your choosing. Y/C= your college course.

Recommendations: “Wait For Me”, Kings of Leon. “Thinking of You” and “The One That Got Away” by Katy Perry.

***

The year is 1944. War is carrying further, leaving destructions everywhere, anywhere with little hopes of coming to an end. It has become part of the routine to turn the tv and see the images of bombs, armies marching against the other, scenes of extreme violence and sadness.

You, on the other hand, try to avoid watching. It’s bad enough to live in such scenario, worse to allow oneself to live with hopes. As you grow in your teenage years, you spend time with the Targaryen family in a small village located in N/P, United Kingdom. Though the big, white mansion is the summer house of that family, you more than often are seen around them.

And though everyone seems to think you and Helaena are the best of friends, it’s by Aemond’s side you are seen the most: whether riding a bike together, climbing trees or even studying.

You two know each other so well that even his mother once remarked:

“You know, Y/N. I’ve only seen Aemond smiling widely when he’s around you. Not even his family has earned such privilege.”

At which you blushed and appreciated the consideration. But even so the Targaryens are like your second family, so you feel free to be yourself around them.

So now you are getting close to celebrate your 20’s and you are about to get to university to study Y/C. Under a cork tree, right in front of the lake, you and Aemond are talking about it.

“So I want to become a y/c”, you tell him, placing your curls behind your ears, making sure not to have your hair a complete mess when you are around him, a sudden concern you try not to pay attention this much. “And after a lot of conversation with my father and my mother, they agreed! I thought they wouldn’t, but they did!”

Aemond, in turn, is surprised to find sadness upon such news. Yet, he masks well when occupying himself with lighting a cigarette.

“Does this mean you are leaving to US?”

“What? No. I wouldn’t dare to go that far”, you mumble shyly, looking down at your hands and missing the side, shy smile when he casts you a relieved glance. “You know I cannot afford crossing the ocean and establish myself.”

And yet, despite his selfishness, he finds himself saying:

“You know we could always help you. You are practically a family, Y/N.”

You smile at him and your heart skips a beat when he smiles too. Uh-oh. Oh you wish you haven’t noticed that when he is happy, your heart swoons as a result.

“I appreciate it, dear Aemond. But I wouldn’t ask you this. I.. I prefer to stay.”

“How come? There is so much you could do. I mean, I would go if I had the opportunity”, he grumbles.

You shoot him a hurt glare despite being aware that he has a complicated relationship with his father and his elder sister.

“What about me?”, you hear yourself saying and almost instantly you wish you had not opened your mouth.

But Aemond scoffs at you.

“I would take you with me, of course”, the Targaryen smiles gently when seeing you blush.

A pleasant sight to behold.

If only you knew, though…

“Well, we could always run away together despite the darkness this world has been plagued to.”

“I’d like that. Don’t see why not.”

“You are quiet today”, you remark, leaving your spot to join his side. “What’s been happening?”

Aemond sighs heavily. Looking at the horizon, he at first refuses to look at you, but you are patient. Very gently you put your hand over his shoulder and rub it.

As you wait, your eyes linger at his long silver hair, his long face with lilac eyes that often hid from others what you could easily perceive: his kindness, sense of duty, gentleness to others, loyalty to his family. Where people judged his pride, you’d find him reserved, preferring quiet occasions than lousy ones.

Oh damn it, Aemond. I think I’ve fallen for you.

The realization knocks your heart down, specially aware that you’d never be his type: he’d been in a long relationship with an older woman named Alice Rivers for about five years and the break up wasn’t easy—despite the evident relief in his family, who clearly disapproved the match.

So you remove your hand and look away, thoughtful, but nothing is yet to remain the same when Aemond, feeling the cold on the spot he appreciated the warmth of your touch, gives you the worst news you could expect.

“You know, Y/N. There is something I haven’t had the courage to tell you.” He hesitates.

You look at him, already distressed when he is careful with words—knowing Aemond is not, like when you witnessed him shouting at his older sister Rhaenyra for trying to teach him lessons about dating an older woman when she hooked up with her own uncle—, for something bad is happening. As you predict, it does.

“Yes? Aemond, darling, what is it?”

He cannot look you in the eyes when saying:

“I-I’m going to fight in the war.”

You don’t even realize you shout.

“WHAT?”

You don’t realize you start sobbing.

“W-WHY? No, Aemond! No!”

Aemond swallows his own tears before pulling you to an embrace, forbidding you to flee from his arms.

“I’m sorry I didn’t tell you earlier. I…I was a coward”, he speaks softly to you. “I’m sorry, Y/Nickname. I really am. But I had no choice upon this matter.”

You cast him a hurtful look without parting the embrace, his arms so tight around you that even if you wanted to, you could not get away so easily. You hug him in return, not saying a word as you two stay like this for a long while.

You understand his motivations, but you blame yourself for expecting… What exactly were you expecting, though? That one day he’d find out you have feelings for him and suddenly you’d replace Mrs Rivers in his affections? That the war would never find you and part one from the other?

“What are you thinking? Please talk to me”, he begs you, cupping your face when looking for your eyes.

“I…”

There is so much you wish you could say. But believing to be far from reaching his heart, you are stuck with your words. What comes out of tongue disappoints Aemond, whose thoughts mirror yours.

“Why must you go? This is not your war to fight.”

“You know I cannot refuse. My father’s influence along my maternal grandfather’s managed to prevent my participation in the front.”

“I bet Aegon kept instigating you about it”, you remark with evident displeasure.

“He always sought glory and in many ways, distorted these might be, he is dutiful. He’s been sent to Germany, however, and so far it’s not been so bad.”

You shake your head.

“Come on Y/Nickname”, says Aemond rather anxiously. “I must do what is expected from me. Lots of men are doing so.”

Your eyes are full of protest, Aemond can tell they do, but your gentle nature softens it.

“As long as you come back to us whole, well and alive.”

Aemond gives a smile before taking your hands and kissing each, which makes you giggle.

“I promise you, Y/N. I promise you I’ll come back.”

And he is yet to say something—his impulsiveness seems to realize that he must profess how ardently he loves you before he goes to war—when Lord Otto, his grandfather, comes after you.

“So is it here your secret spot, children?”, the older male laughs away as you two instantly part from each other, and he finds quite absurd how you can’t see what is evident to everyone. “Well, I lament to intrude but Aemond, General Lannister is waiting for you. Apparently you are needed urgently. Your poor mother is already weeping.”

Lord Otto nods at you and there is little time to say anything. Aware how Aemond is colder in front of his relatives, you expect nothing but a quick goodbye. But Aemond hesitates. All he does, though, is look into your eyes, seeing something in them.

I wish I could investigate what there is in your y/c eyes, Y/N. I wonder if you feel the way I do… May God spare me and let me know if you when I come back.

Thoughts that do not, however, reach out for his tongue.

“Take care, Y/N. I’ll see you around.”

He knows… Aemond knows that, without waiting for your response, the moment he turns, you’ll weep. He is forced to swallow his own tears.

And he is right. You are left in silent tears, hating yourself for never telling how much he means to you.

***

A year later… Oxford University.

You don’t move on. You simply cannot, in spite of the appearances. In spite of dressing a long blue skirt and a red-white short sleeved shirt. In spite of putting those Mary Jane’s black shoes and carrying your notes everywhere. In spite of conceding dances to other gentlemen such as Mr Alex Velaryon.

But no gentlemen match your beloved Aemond, your best friend, whom you loved since you were a child. Who went to fight a war and never again you heard news from him.

Because you started to study y/c at Oxford University. Because the Targaryens never again came back to the village you were raised. Because war ruined your dreams.

Your hair is shorter, filled with curls in the manner of these days. You like the fashion. It helps making you feel alive—because part of you left with him.

He is not dead. I know in my heart, Aemond. I know you are alive.

But there are moments your heart is heavy with regret and remorse for never telling him how you feel. So you write this in your journal:

“I should’ve told you what you’ve meant to me. So now I pay the price. In another life, I would make you stay so I don’t have to say you were the one that got away.”

You, however, wait. Specially when news of the end of the war reach your ears. It’s a great relief and everyone is naturally overjoyed. Classes are ended before time and you are allowed to visit your family.

Unbeknownst to you, Aemond is on his way home. He has missed an eye during the conflict, but he is going back as a war hero. Despite the traumas he’s got to deal with, all he cares now is to find you.

Aemond too collects remorses. War has changed him, his perspectives...and mostly taught him that there might not be tomorrow. Losing an eye is nothing compared with the possibility of losing you.

"You are too quiet, Aemond", so says Aegon. "Are you seriously letting it affect you? If I survived this shit, so will you."

"Each to their own", grumbles Aemond. "You became a drunk man, Aegon. How does that make you feel better?"

Aegon pats his brother's shoulder and says:

"Each to their own", he repeats his words.

But they do share the relief of coming back home. By the time they are dropped at the Targaryen mansion, the brothers are surprised to find their father waiting for them next to their mother.

"My boys!", it's Alicent who runs in their direction.

It's a moment to count their blessings, indeed. Even Viserys leaves pride aside to acknowledge he hasn't been the best of parents. Reconciliation is a most prudent path to take, the first steps to heal old wounds.

But as much as Aemond wishes to take part of it, the urgences in his heart cannot wait any further. So he excuses himself from his family.

"My son!", exclaims Alicent in perplexity. "Where are you going to?"

Aegon smirks, but it's Helaena who responds:

"Oh, he is going to purchase his lady's heart at long last!"

***

You are twirling in your swing, finding the celebrations boring. You are not in the mood to tolerate your family, and their constant implications you are in the age of marriage. Your cousin even went as far as telling how he got over the first woman he fell in love.

Ugh. Their assumptions are so unwelcoming and out of place.

However, you do feel sad when considering the possibilities of your life had you told him how you felt.

Not to know makes difficult to move on.

Yet, every doubt dissipates and with it, the shadow of the reminiscent sadness when a very known voice is heard:

"I never thought I would find my lady in such a state."

When looking up, you find Aemond himself standing before you. He is dressed in his old uniform and there is a mix of anxiety and concern in his lilac eyes when staring at you.

Your heart races, but you hesitate.

“Is that a phantom that stands before me?”

He takes your hand, tears emerging in his eyes.

“Is this touch not real enough for you? Oh, madam, what other proof is enough to dissipate any doubts about my return?”

You promptly stand and hold him tight, all the whilst Aemond breathes in relief and lifts you in the air, spinning you around.

“I told you I would come back for you, silly head.”

You giggle amidst tears.

“It’s really you!”

“One eyed, indeed, but me!”

And words come out just like that.

“I love you all the same, Aemond.”

It’s when his face brightens that you notice what you said. And you pale at once.

“Y/N…”, Aemond smiles the brightest at your reaction. It’s so much better he’d ever conceived how it was gonna be. “What did you say?”

You untag yourself from his embrace, turning abruptly on your back, detesting to feel that old anxiety that plagued your teenage years about anything that was out of your league—and Aemond had always been one of those things, at least according to your judgement.

“I didn’t say anything.”

But he turns you at him, making you look at him.

“I heard you well. Why are you running away from me? I told you I would come back for you, didn’t I?”

You swallow hard, specially when he cups your cheeks and, caressing each, makes you look at him.

“I love you too, Y/Nickname. I’m sorry I took so long to admit it.”

“I thought you loved her”, you whisper, leaning into his touch.

“I thought it too, but when it comes to you… Good God. I was afraid you were married by now”, he says, afflicted.

You smile gently, placing your hands all over his chest.

“My heart has always been yours.”

“You waited for me”, Aemond smiles back.

“Of course I did. I will always wait for you.”

“As I will always come for you, my wife.”

You smile brightly.

“My husband.”

And so he pulls you for a kiss, sealing your destiny for good.

Weekend Update 04/07/2024

Nerdie! You haven't done one of these since the middle of March!

Yes 👀 I took some time off of work and was out of the country on a boat. A cruise to be exact. The locations were tropical and fun. the sea days (the time you spend on the ship in between each stop) were not. Personally, I wouldn't go on the cruise line again. I prefer more activities, music and a more lively environment. Overall the trip was wonderful, just those sea days. Ugh, silver lining though, so much writing. 🤣

We saw you post a lot Nerdie, didn't you start new series and just post one shots?

I did a lot of writing. 🫣 I'm going to do a list of things I finished or are ongoing. I preface this by saying that I have so many random fanfic ideas. 😭 I have not written all of them out.

Ongoing:

Our Journey Across the Star Ocean (Din Djarin)

This is the Neighborhood Din (Din Djarin)

Only Parts of Your Mr. Morales (Frankie Morales)

The Lake Between Us (Ezra)

Weddings 101 with Dieter (Dieter Bravo)

Come live with Angel (Benny Miller)

Finished One Shots:

How did you forget? (Benny Miller)

What do I want from you? - part one (Lucien Flores) and What do I tell you? - part two (Lucian Flores)

A Poor Plan to confess (Dieter Bravo Brain Rot Serve Challenge) and Fare Well (Hozier Song Drabble Challenge)

Selena Drabble Challenge (Missing You - Marcus Pike)

My Teddy Bear Enjoys Leather (Javi G)

Mi sueño dulce (My Sweet Dream - Javi P)

Finished Series

March Spring Prompts (All 31 days are posted. ☺️ I indulged on the last three. 🤣)

I read about 35-40 fics so they won't all fit here. 😭 So I decided to restart my Fic recommendation lists I used to do to accommodate them. 🥰

Nerdie’s Fic Picks

(because it had it be cute 😆)

Previous fic recs are on this Masterlist as well. Volume 6 will be up late tonight. 😊

Some questions Nerdie has been asked:

Q: How in the world do you have so many ideas?

A: I truly don’t know. I can only say that I live in my head a lot so to speak so imagining what I would like to say, think or do is a lot easier than actually doing it. Then I just write it. Also I enjoy making myself and others laugh so the more insane a scenario is, the more likely it is to make it into a fic somehow.

Q: How do you write so much?

A: I stick my ideas in notes. Sometimes bullet point, sometimes just start writing. Usually if I use these focus things you can use in discord called “Sprints” I can channel the idea onto a page. It’s not always the same idea I had in mind, but usually it’s pretty good. Then I actually finish things to a good soundtrack or playlist. There is also tea involved.

Q: Which idea is next Nerdie?

A: Marcus Pike in therapy for an incident involving a gun and Mr. And Mrs. Hot Dog Water (if you know, you know.) Dieter as your sperm donor except he said “bun making appointments” because he has his reasons he doesn’t feel like telling you until the bun is in that oven and Ezra or Javi P in an AU as a sex worker because…again reasons 👀 It could be any of these or that Din and fairy warrior idea I had. 🤣 All of these are…very me. lol 😂

That’s it for this week’s update!

Special thanks to:

@angelofsmalldeath-codeine for listening to my nonsense daily and exchanging Golden Girls meme & gifts. ❤️

@fhatbhabie for almost typing “Hot dog water” in one of her fics. 😂💜

@maggiemayhemnj for reading my initial draft of “Only Parts of You Mr. Morales” and bravely asking, what is the origin of that term? Like the professor she is. 🤓

@goodwithcheese for asking me to pick between Javi P and Obyern Martell, she asks the hard questions.

@megamindsecretlair for indulging my ideas for future chapters of “This is the Neighborhood Din” and I thank you for listening.

@wannab-urs for giving me challenges and had me write two different Dieter fics with very different feels. ⭐️

Love ❤️ Nerdie!! 😍

supernatural s14e12 prophet and loss (w. brad buckner, eugenie ross-leming)

feel like i'm just grinding through s14 at a decent pace. several times now they've made me had minor (to moderate) breakdowns and i just want to keep plowing through because i don't want the breakdowns to last more than one day 🫠 been a long time since a season made me cry so much. and especially with mid-season episodes? but it feels more.... hm. calculated. like when i bitched about 4 months suddenly equals 40 years in hell etc.

ranted about it in 9x09 because i don't think i was making my feelings known here for every episode back in s4

instead i just sighed because “trust me, kevin” and “i always end up screwed :)” so now dean’s gonna feel guilty. he’s already feeling guilty enough, did we need that too? when they push too hard on the excessive dean whump, i get annoyed. like the whole 4 months=40 years, i enjoyed torturing people, etc. edgelord bullshit :P

except instead of getting mad about it being edgelord bullshit now, i'm just feeling brokenhearted and manipulated. very not fun times. it's too much too close together to the jack thing and too similar to things they've done in the past, i think. is why it's pushing me away so hard.

dean's nightmare in the box / suicidal deathbed-esque convo also with interstellar-ish music / interstellar cornfield chase (c. hans zimmer) played by anna lapwood on the organ

well. dean's nightmare was awful. shades of him in hell calling out for sam. cannot fucking wait until this particular plotline gets snuffed out. and because i can't deal with not comparing this interstellar-ish music (it's in both spn scenes) i tacked it on to the end of this video too.

SAM Oh, hey. Didn’t mean to wake you. Sorry. DEAN No, it’s just a… bad dream. It’s fine. SAM You want to talk about it? DEAN No, I’m – No, I’m okay. DEAN What’re you doing? Why don’t you get some sleep? SAM You know, Dean, you don’t have to act like what you’re planning to do is just business as usual. I-I know you’re scared. DEAN Never said I wasn’t scared. But it doesn’t matter. SAM Doesn’t matter? We know we could die, uh, doing what we do. It’s always a possibility. But what you’re talking about is far worse than death. Michael’s an archangel. He could literally keep you buried in a coffin, alive, forever. DEAN Okay. I get it. But what’s the other option, huh? Michael gets outta my head and ends the world? ‘Cause it’s all right there in Billie’s book. SAM Yeah, but that’s only if we don’t find another way to take Michael off the board, and there has to be another way. DEAN And what is that other way? [SAM says nothing.] DEAN Exactly.

(but at least he wasn't sleeping in his jeans this time. oh and they're in an actual normal mid-price generic hotel room)

this reminds me a lot of the conversations in s5 about sammy going in the cage.

and like when i was watching the old guard, i'm like ah yes, stuck in a coffin in the ocean drowning over and over because you're immortal - i have heard this story before! on the vampire diaries! someone... stefan?? was stuck in a ...... safe? and pushed into a lake to repeatedly die and revive. 500 years and 3 months, respectively.

well this rando dude torturing and drowning a woman scene, also awful. jesus. we're committing to darker-than-usual i guess

CAS Sam. Maybe if I spoke with Dean… SAM It wouldn’t matter. Believe me, I-I I’ve never seen him like this. He won’t listen to me. H-He just – No. If we don’t find some way… Dean’s gone.

that interstellar-ish music again...

DEAN You ever think about when we were kids? SAM Maybe. Yeah, sure. Sometimes. W-Why? DEAN I know I wasn’t always the greatest brother to you. SAM Dean, you were the one who was always there for me. The only one. I mean, you practically raised me. DEAN I know things got dicey… you know, with dad… the way he was. And I just… I didn’t always look out for you the way that I should’ve. I mean, I had my own stuff, you know. In order to keep the peace, it probably looked like I took his side quite a bit. Sometimes when I was… when I was away, you know it wasn’t ‘cause I just ran out, right? Dad would… he would send me away when I really pissed him off. I think you knew that. SAM Man, I left that behind a long time ago. I had to. And if we’re gonna get through this, I-I have to do like you said and… try and keep my mind off of where we’re going. So, if we could not have conversations that sound like… deathbed apologies, I would really appreciate it. DEAN Right. Yeah.

listen i know this gets resolved somehow and i'm not gonna bail on this fucking project with a little more than a season left but i can't express how much i don't want to watch something that's making me cry so hard my head is killing me (more than it was already) on a regular basis. this is too many things that cut too close to home with characters i'm too attached to. sigh.

𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐂𝐀𝐍𝐎𝐍 ; The meaning for his name.

I have been thinking a lot about the meaning of Minato’s name && how it reflects his character perfectly. Becoming a bigger reason why I find myself preferring his manga name rather than the canonical name that he was given ( Yuki Makoto. ) This is not an attempt to bash the canonical name nor his anime counterpart. I’m fully aware that Yuki Makoto does fit his character as well. However, it does not fit as perfectly as the name Arisato Minato does. I’m making this statement right now, since I’m aware that people love to get into arguments about the p/ersona protagonist's names. This headcanon is meant to be an attempt to explain the meaning of his name && how it reflects his character, but foreshadows the ending for persona 3.

Quick disclaimer, I am not Japanese nor can I read / speak Japanese. I am doing my best to get the information that I am able to gather from online && seeing similar questions asked by other users asking those who either speak Japanese / understand Japanese themselves. Still, If I happened to have misunderstood anything, you can contact me about it ! Secondly, I do wish to give credit to my best friend as they were the ones to help me out on gathering this information && pointing out things that I had not noticed prior. With that now said, let’s discuss his name.

有 ( Ari ) ━━━ translate to “exist / existence.” 里 ( sato ) ━━━ translate to “village / hamlet.” 湊 ( Minato ) ━━━ And lastly Minato translate to “Harbor” or “Port.” In the Dictionary, there’s two ways in which you could read Harbor. The common way would be “a part of the ocean, a lake, etc. That is next to land and that is protected and deep enough to provide safety for ships.” while the uncommon way would be “a place of safety and comfort : haven — often used in the phrase safe harbor.” ( There’s a reason that I am bringing up the secondary meaning for it. )

湊有里 ( Arisato Minato ) ━━━ Could be interpreted / read in two ways. "The existence of a village with a harbor." or "A village that exists with a harbor." A very fitting name for the protagonist, when you start to remember that at the beginning of the game. Minato ends up arriving back at his birth home after ten years of not being there. What was his birth home called? Tatsumi Port Island / Port Island ! His name fits perfectly for the beginning of the game && where he belongs at. His home will be a place that has a Port, someplace that happens to have an ocean / lake. As for the secondary meaning that I had bought up ( the uncommon way ) was the “a place of safety and comfort : haven — often used in the phrase safe harbor.” This one fit perfectly into his character too ! Safety & Comfort : haven. The ending of persona 3 has Minato sacrificing himself to become a Great Seal, sealing Nyx away to prevent The Fall from happening. Obviously, this would seem like a move any protagonist would do in that situation.

However, Minato’s character from the start to the finish is interesting && one of my favorite characters' developments. He had lost his parents at the age of ten, spent years moving around city to city, town to town, possibly going to an orphanage at some point in his life. The concept of living was nothing but hell to him, people will die. He learned that at an early age, there’s no point in living when everybody will end up dead at some point. That is the mindset that he had thought for years. There’s a reason that he didn’t value his life after all.

That would be until he moved back to his home birth, he found himself around the members of S.E.E.S. Witnessing the death of a teammate of his, a teammate losing their family member or true love, && yet saw how those around him. Never gave up. They had kept moving forward even when all felt lost. There’s a reason that Minato refused to kill Ryoji on December 21th. He had a choice to kill him. But the relationship that he had built with not only S.E.E.S but with Ryoji was far too important for him to lose. He had fought alongside his teammates to stop Nyx, && while they could not defeat Nyx. Minato went with the last resort that he had in hand. It did not matter to him what ended up becoming of him. Whether he ends up dying or something more. All that mattered to him was the people around him could live on happily. At the end of the day, he’s the haven for Tatsumi Port Island.

The safe harbor.

i. On a minor / side note. His parents had given him the name 湊 ( Minato ) to represent that Tatsumi Port Island is his home, that no matter where he ends up going in the future. Tatsumi Port Island is the place that he was born in && will forever be his home.

#* XIII ⫶ moment of truth there ain't no truce ⊹ ( headcanon. )#{ this took... a little longer for me to write up than I had wanted too but ! I wanted to make sure I got my info right && explain things #the best I can on the subject at hand ! Still.. I could be getting something wrong... ! Either way I love minato so much /sighs }

Of all mindlessness in the world we have forgotten to be mindfull with ourselves. To nurture not only our bellies and mind but it is foremost our souls which need acknowledgement and care/ taken care of through symbols and pictures. As I am a strong fire based soul I flourish the most by having constantly fire in my surrounding (candles, fire place) plus to contain it I have figured out that it is really good for me if on one side somehow is water nearby (lake♋, river♏ or the ocean♓) (hier: Coimbra, Portugal) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoejxpRMhGm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

No, I need my space. But I enjoy other people’s company, as long as I know and trust them.

Have you ever had bronchitis?

I haven’t.

What was the last thing you purchased?

I don’t watch movies.

How would you feel if your significant other (or possible partner) told you they dislike having sex, but do so with you to make you happy, even though they personally think it’s a chore?

Well, I am that significant other. Better ask my husband how he feels about it :P but honestly, I’d be relieved if I wasn’t the only ace in my relationship.

What stories are an absolute must read for your children/possible future children?

Not planning any children, thanks.

What are some of your favorite monologues?

Who’s the biggest whore you know?

I don’t know and I don’t care.

Do people ever think you’re older/younger than you actually are?

Younger, even much younger. I’m often being mistaken for a teenager, but I’m actually in my 30s. Maybe if I grown a beard, it’d be different :P but my facial hair is nothing to brag about, honestly.

What is your current status?

Upper working class and married.

Do you sleep on a certain side of the bed?

Yeah, on the right side.

I don’t. I should be more considerate.

Do you wish you had an older, protective brother?

Very much so. I’ve always wanted an older brother.

If you could seek revenge on someone would you?

Yeah, but I would use my intelligence to do it.

Would you ever get a tattoo?

Do you think you will be in a relationship 3 months from now?

We’re married, so what’s the question?

Have you ever liked anyone that was in a relationship with someone else?

Kind of. But it wasn’t anything serious.

Do people ever compliment your eyes?

It’s the most frequent compliment I hear.

Never been to the US.

What’s your favorite thing about the town you live in?

Beautiful architecture.

Are you boobs real?

Hello you mrs. sourdough honey ham lady robin hood lefty eyebag. I can't with the little john nickname 🤣 it reminds me of lil jon.

How are you today?

Yessss and it's the square hashbrowns that's from the freezer section. It's so good. If I make into breakfast sandwiches, I use the everything bagel. But if it's by itself, I eat the cinnamon raisin one.

You an old lady, liking raisins in your oatmeal. Hahaha just kidding. So no milk? Nevermind you don't like milk..

I love cake donuts. But only the chocolate one. But if it's from Krispy Kreme, the original glaze is my favorite. How about you?

Don't tempt me, I do want to go to the restaurant. But now I have an impromptu appointment with the eye doctor because my glasses broke this afternoon. So I will be blind until Saturday lol

I think you did, and I don't think I gave you an answer 😅 I don't think I have a favorite herb.

Ugh yes, I remember trying not to step on the floor that has puddles. I think it's a mixture of water from the ocean and the blood of the dead.

Yes ahahahahaha that's how I pictured it! And you just looking at it with disgust because it's smelly and slimy.

It really depends where I go to camp. When I lived in Georgia, they had nice campgrounds up my the mountains. But in Nebraska, the first time I went camping, it kind of sucked because we were by the lake and I hated the area. Now I just want to camp if it's in a cabin or it's a nicer area, where it's green and less sand.

I sing myself to sleep. Just kidding God no. I do the same, or just lay in bed, start making stories, and usually after a bit I just pass out.

Would it bother you if I started asking questions about sex? Like more so about how you write it in your fics..

-CuriousGeorge

hello hello! I'm back..

hahaha lil' jon? now it's remind me his song with LMFAO "Shots", so u r the righty eyebag who likes taking shots! lol..n I'll be the eyebag who cheer n scream "shots! shots! shots! shots!" i hope u know the song, otherwise this joke won't be funny. :p

I'm okay. I'm in a mood swings. everything are iritating to me the whole day because it's that time of the month.

oh yeah i like that hashbrown too. it's kinda like the one from mcdonald but better. i like the plain bagel. not a fan of everything bagel because of the onion smell. ouh i really wanna try the cinnamon raisin one but im thinking what if i dont like it, nobody at home will eat it n i dont wanna waste it. so i keep buying the plain one.

yes i like raisins in my oatmel. i don't like milk? I like milk. in fact, my mom used to put milk in my oatmeal all the time and make it so creamy n put some sugar in it. n when it's done, she put some saltine crackers in it, n it's so good. hahaha

i just don't eat my oreos or brownies or cookies with milk. but i dont mind milk in other things. :D

cake donuts? what is cake donut? i eat donut when i was still in indonesia but when i got here i dont really eat them because i think they are too sweet n i dont like anything too sweet. but if i eat some donut here, i usually get the chocolate one with the bavarian cream in it. or the chocolate that looks like rope shape i think. i forgot what it's called.lol. other than chocolate maybe strawbery one. for me krispy creme r too sweet.

have u tried mochi donuts? it's so good. it's donut but a little more chewy than usual donut because of the different ingredients. try google it.

oh nooooo, that sucks! u dont hv an extra pair so u can wear it until u get a new one? I'm sorry. it's never fun when u cant find ur glasses or broke ur glasses. what happened? also how bad ur sight is without the glasses, what's the (-) number?

ah i see. well i think i told you that my favorite herbs is lemon grass, basil and cilantro

the blood of the dead, lol. i dont know why i think it's funny, especially with the dead fish i sent u earlier

ah i see,, either way, i dont like camping at all. :D

wait,making stories? are u a writer too? i can't believe i havent asked u this after been talking with u for a while.

yes, u can ask me about sex. I will answer it as long as i'm comfortable. just feel free to ask me, dont worry about it. :)

so what do u wanna ask?:)

Cheerio!

Oh my god you’re back! I was literally thinking of your perv!Eddie and best friend!reader and went to check if you’d appear in search and got so excited when I saw you did! I know it’s not the right season, but could I request something for them and maybe a pool or lake day?

Your wish is my command! This turned into complete and utter smut without a plot and I'm sorry 😩

Warnings: smut (18+ minors DNI), oral (m! and f! receiving), public sex, unprotected p in v (use a condom pls), reader wears a bikini, language

WC: 1.6k

"Please can you take me to the lake?" you whine, fanning yourself with your hand. You and Eddie are sitting on the floor of your living room, an old black-and-white movie playing on the TV in front of you. "It's so hot outside!"

Eddie grins. "Of course, sweetheart." He would like nothing more than to bring you to the lake; hell, he'd drive to the goddamn Pacific Ocean if it meant seeing you in a bikini.

"Yay!" You throw your arms around him, your chest pressing against his arm. "You're the best, I swear. Let me just change real quick, okay?"

He nods, swallowing thickly. The thought of you stripping down to nothing has his cock twitching in his jeans.

"Black or purple?" Your voice snaps him from his thoughts, and he looks over to see a bikini in each color pinched between your fingers.

"Wha--oh. Um, black, I guess," he stammers. "Yeah, black's good."

You nod, placing the purple one back in your drawer. "I'll just need help tying the strings, if you don't mind." With that, you disappear into your bathroom.

"O-or you can just leave it untied!" He tries to make it sound like a joke, but he's completely serious. He palms himself over his jeans just thinking about it.

You laugh from behind the bathroom door. "You'd love that," you tease.

Yeah, I fuckin' would, Eddie thinks. He's about to bolt for the second floor bathroom so he can rub one out when he hears the doorknob turn. You step out, hands over your breasts, keeping your top up. He's never wished for your fingers to slip more than he does now.

"A little help here, Eds?" you ask, and it takes him a moment to process your request. He takes the ties and makes them into a bow at the nape of your neck, and you can feel his hard cock against your bare thigh. "Don't make it too loose; I don't want it to fall off."

Christ.

You slip on a pair of denim shorts, much to Eddie's chagrin, but you leave your chest covered only by the small bikini top. He can't help but stare at your cleavage, amplified by the padding. Shit, he just wants to fuck your tits so badly.

"Y'okay?" you place your hand on his bicep when you ask, and he swears he's about to blow his load right then and there.

"'M fine," he mutters. "Let's just go to the lake and cool off."

It's not until Eddie's rattling old van pulls up to the lake that he realizes he doesn't have a swimsuit.

"I can just sit on the rocks, y'know, chill out" he says, grateful for an excuse to keep his erection clad beneath his pants.

You're not having any of it. "Nah, just go swimming in your boxers!" When he groans, you roll your eyes with a giggle. "C'mon, I'm practically naked in this. You can be in your underwear." And with that, you slip out of your shorts, revealing thighs that Eddie would beg to be between, and jump off the dock into the water.

Eddie practically throws off his white sneakers and quickly strips off his clothes, throwing them haphazardly to the side. You sneak a peek at him; his lean body is littered with tattoos, and he grins when he catches you staring.

"Like what you see?" He always keeps his humorous tone, but you're genuine when you nod, blush creeping across your cheeks.

"Oh?" he questions, not expecting that response. "What do you like about it?" He does a cannonball into the lake, splashing you as he makes impact.

"Eddie!" you gasp.

He pouts. "What's the matter? Did I get you all wet?" He swims over to where you're treading water and tilts your chin up at him. "Poor thing."

You use your weightlessness to your advantage, wrapping your legs around his waist and throwing your arms over his shoulders.

"To answer your question," you say, looking straight into his deep brown eyes, "I like every...last...inch of your body." You feel his grip tighten on your lower back, a growl emanating from his throat.

"Don't tease me, princess," he groans. "Don't say that unless you mean it." His lips are at your neck, waiting for your reply.

"You're so pretty when you're needy," you whisper in his ear. You feel him press wet, harsh kisses along your throat, pawing at the strings he tied just 20 minutes earlier. The top peels down, revealing your hardened nipples. Eddie takes one in his mouth and sucks on it, feeling it pebble over his tongue. His thumb flicks over the other one, groping you clumsily.

"Eddie," you breathe out, "we can't do this here. What if someone sees?"

Eddie pulls his lips off of your skin and laughs. "Been showin' off for me all damn day, and now you're tryin' to be modest?"

"Showing off for you, Eds. Only you. Don't want anyone else seeing me like this."

He moans at this, glancing around desperately to find a place to go. "Come with me, baby." You both swim to the dock as fast as you can, and you fold your arms over your bare chest as soon as you get out of the water. Eddie rips the bikini top that's now gathered at your hips and tucks it into the waistband of his boxers.

He leads you over to a secluded area behind Skull Rock. As soon as you're both out of the line of vision for any passersby, you reach into his underwear and pull out his hard length.

"Want me to suck it?" you bat your eyelashes innocently, biting your lip when Eddie just nods. "Nuh-uh, pretty boy. Need you to beg me."

"Get on your knees and suck me off, princess," he whimpers, and you do as you're told. You lick a stripe from the base of his shaft to the pink tip, already dripping with precum.

"So big," you muse. "Look how massive you are compared to my hand." You punctuate your point by wrapping your fingers around his cock. "How am I gonna fit all this inside me?"

He whines at your dirty talk, throwing his head back as you hollow out your cheeks and take his full length between your lips. "S'good," he murmurs between moans. "Love seeing you full of me."

Spit dribbles down your chin as he bucks into you, hitting the back of your throat. He feels his release threatening, and he pulls out of your mouth.

"Why'd you stop?" you jut out your lower lip. "I was just getting started."

"I was gonna cum, and I--I need this pussy." He takes your hand, pulling you off of the ground, and immediately assumes the same position you were in. You stop out of your bikini bottoms as he tugs them to your ankles, leaving soft kisses down your folds. A tingling sensation spreads throughout your body as his tongue expertly finds your clit.

"Eddie--Eddie, holy shit," you whisper loudly. "Keep going. Keep doing that, faster, please."

He laughs, a hint of malice behind it. "Now who's needy, princess?"

"Me," you relent. "Me, I'm needy, need you so fucking bad, Eds."

"Mhm," he says, the vibration against your sex making you cry out even harder. "Thas a good girl." He presses one thick finger into you and curls it, pumping it in and out. "Y'like that?"

"Love it, love it, more," you plead.

"More?" Another mischievous chuckle. "Okay, if you insist." He pushes you up against the rock, hitching your legs around his waist like you had in the water. He nestles himself between your legs and slides his cock inside you, filling you up instantly. You hiss at the sudden pressure, but the pain is quickly replaced with exhilarating pleasure. "How's this?"

"So...so fucking good," you manage. "Wanted this for s'long."

"Wanted what?" Eddie teases. "Gotta tell me, babe."

You whine, barely able to complete a coherent thought. "Wanted you t-to fuck me. Wanted you inside me, fucking me just like you're doing now."

"Is that why you wore that skimpy little bikini?" You nod, and he moves one hand from your ass to your throat. "Words, baby."

"Y-yes," you admit. "Wore it just f'you."

"Aww, isn't that sweet," he coos, rutting into you harder. "But y'know, the best way to show me you want me is to wear nothing at all."

"I'll remember that for next time, pretty boy."

The idea of a next time coupled with the pet name has Eddie thrusting into you with an unparalleled voracity. You feel your orgasm wash over you, your pussy clenching around him as you finish with a throaty Eddie-Eddie-Eddie.

"Fuck, I'm gonna cum," he groans. "Where d'you want it?"

"My tits...cum on my tits," you pant. He eases you down, the removal of his cock leaving you mewling at the loss. You get back on your knees in front of him while he pumps himself, towering over you.

"Take it, good fucking girl, taking my cum all over her. Letting me mark her as my territory," Eddie snarls as he paints your chest with his sticky release. He lets out a few more breathy expletives as he slows down.

"We...we have to do that again," you say finally, pulling on your swimsuit bottoms. You reach down to pick up the top, but Eddie snatches it before you can.

"Eddie!" you whine. "Give it to me!"

"Oh, sweetheart," he smirks. "I think I just did."

Submitted via Google Form: Recursive Lakes

I'm really fascinated by recursive lakes, especially with them nestled in and was wondering about building a country that only consists of thsoe and am very much wondering about the type of geographic circumstances that could give rise to them. The main largest island is a continental island like Australia but the overall appearance of the map is, basically multiple rings of land, so I can fit all these recursive lakes. I have 9 layers right now. Hopefully, I've not gone too overboard with this? Also I can't seem to find info about this but.. do such landforms have rivers connecting the lakes?

Tex: I was going to pull out a bunch of links, but then it occurred to me that this sounds a lot like Atlantis (Wikipedia).

As a side note, countries are not standardized to a specific size (Wikipedia), despite the “from sea to shining sea” rhetoric made popular in the United States via the Monroe Doctrine (Wikipedia) and the contemporaneously-contested concept of Manifest Destiny (Wikipedia).

Geologically-speaking, however, it’s going to be a bit difficult to not only form such a physical state on an Australian-sized scale, but also to maintain weather patterns in a sustainable, believable way. You’ll need to deal with the lack of continental subsumption (forming the island) and the wacky pattern of rain shadows created by the probably-existing mountains (weather, also forming the island)..

Rivers can be used, but I would avoid having too many in order to maintain the stability of the land masses and prevent undue erosion, something that is difficult to mitigate with different stone types, as soil erosion will make the land uninhabitable regardless.

I think if you have the individual rings wide enough to create their own ecosystems, that would help with continental stability. Logistically, the inner rings are probably in decreasing grades of salinity, if the switch-over isn’t abruptly done as soon as the ocean hits the first ring. Another possibility would be to play with sea levels, in that each concentric ring would be a little higher than the larger one outside it, looking a bit like an incredibly large, terraced mountain.

A lot of it is up to you, and of course you do always have at your disposal the ability to suspend disbelief on the particulars and just hand-wave the finer details as the plot necessitates.

Synth: The first potentially plausible possibility that came to my mind was a volcano. Or in the case of wanting to have an Australia-sized landmass, a supervolcano. It formed, erupted, collapsed, formed again inside the caldera of the previous volcano but didn't get quite as big as the original before it went kerblooey... layer that a few times before it goes extinct and then fill the remaining crater rings with water, and there you go: an island within a lake within an island within a lake within… and so on until you hit the number of levels you want. Much, much smaller real-world examples of this process are Wizard Island in Crater Lake, and Anak Krakatau emerging from the collapsed remains of the island of Krakatau. Atolls can also form in a similar way.

Another option is having some fun with geology. Perhaps the entire continent is a dome: a spherical or ellipsoid geologic fold. Alternating bands of harder and softer rock could lead to several nested lakes after erosion does its thing for a while. Guelb er Richât, the Eye of the Sahara, is a real-world example, albeit “only” forty kilometres across instead of four thousand. If I read about a continent-sized volcanic caldera or geologic dome in a fantasy or sci-fi novel I’d accept it as A Thing That Exists without mulling it over too much.

Complex craters can also have multiple rings, so let’s have a look at some impact craters. The Chicxulub crater from the extinction event that took out most of the dinosaurs is an estimated 180km in diameter (it’s very old and mostly underwater, so it’s kind of difficult to get an accurate measurement), and the asteroid that made it was probably about 10km across. Here’s a fun little sim about throwing big space rocks at Earth that you can play around with, though keep in mind it’ll only give rough estimates at best since it’s from 2004 and science’s understanding of impact processes is always growing. From my own goofing around it looks like to create a crater the size of Australia on a planet of similar composition to Earth you could do it with an asteroid made of dense rock measuring about 500km across. It won’t destroy the planet but anything alive on it won’t be for very much longer.

Nested impact craters from multiple asteroid strikes could be yet another possible method of formation, but I definitely wouldn’t call it all that plausible. It requires that all of them strike almost exactly the same location and at similar angles and in descending order of mass. If you’re looking for a more real-life-believable origin, this one probably won’t pass muster, but if your story universe has loads of magic and literal gods, or very powerful technology and a bunch of people who decided it would be cool to build a continent out of recursive islands, then have at it and have fun.

Masterlist Riordanverse Masterlist

You watched as the Sun Chariot (or a bus for now) crashed into the canoe lake. This was unexpected, but you and some other campers who had decided to stay for winter break got up on your feet and gathered as many towels as you could find. The weather at camp was always modulated by magic, but it was still freezing and a cold for demigods was just as bad as it was for a mortal.

You saw a huge group of girls whom you immediately recognised as the Hunters of Artemis. They too were being passed out towels as soon as they trudged out of the lake. You gave towels to Percy and Grover, who were standing away from Thalia, who was being helped by another camper. You looked around, immediately noticing that Annabeth was nowhere in the crowd.

You pulled Grover aside to ask him where she was.

"We don't know" he shook his head, a sad frown forming on his face "She fell off a cliff after tackling a manticore, into the ocean, but Percy couldn't sense her…."

You looked over at Percy and Thalia. They were standing apart from each other, but both had practically the same expression on their faces. Both of them were close to Annabeth and were clearly going through the same internal conflict as you.

Annabeth was your first friend when you came to camp. She was your age and was by your side when y/g/p had claimed you.

When you found out that she, Thalia, Percy and were going to get some new campers, you were at camp and wanted to go with them. But they said it had been alright and that they'd be at camp soon. Now you thought you should've gone, you could've caught up with them and maybe then you could've saved-

"ARE YOU A DEMIGOD TOO?!" an unknown voice snapped you back to reality.

You turned around to see a boy, about ten years old, who was grinning from ear to ear, looking excited as if his dreams had just come true. You smiled at him slightly, despite your previous nerves.

"Yes, I am. Y/N, daughter of y/g/p."

"Hi I'm Nico" he said before speaking very fast using his hands to make gestures while he spoke "Did you know that y/g/p has a great attack power, with a huge blocking power when used with-"

"Nico, look at her. She's barely keeping up with your words. Much less what they mean" a girl a little younger than you walked over. She was one of the Hunters.

"Sorry about that" Nico said to you, not looking sorry at all, and jumping over to someone else as you faced the girl who had just joined you. She had dark silky hair and olive skin like her brother.

"Hi, I'm Bianca, Nico's sister," she explained, a shy smile on her face,"I'm sorry about that, he's been obsessed with this card game, all he has talked about for a year. And I think he's quite excited to be here at the camp".

"That's alright, I remember when I first got to camp. Everything was so exciting, I almost tripped into the lake while looking around" you laughed lightly. "Well, Bianca, I hope to see you around".

"Of course"

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️

The last time they visited had been quite a disaster, though the Hunters blamed most of it on the campers. You had met most of them then, only a few new girls had joined since then. You had wanted to join the Hunters, but had decided to live life as a camper for the first few years of your teen life. You'd join them later on if you still wanted to.

That didn't mean the Hunters hadn't, yet again, tried to convince you to. While at archery practice that day, you had told them that you wanted to go to school for a while, at least finish middle school. You shot an arrow at the target, missing the bull's eye by a few inches. Archery was not your preferred way in battle, your sword fighting skills were much better. You practiced other weapons just in case . Your sword was kind of like Percy's, but instead of turning into a pen, the blade retracted back into the hilt, so it looked like you had just the handle, that you hung on your belt.

"We could help you learn stuff you would actually require on the field." one of the newer Hunters said "schools never teach stuff you'll actually need-like hunting skills or how to make a net with proper reinforcements to catch monsters"

They continued to say stuff about how joining them was much better than living at camp and going to school, but eventually moved on to other topics.

After archery you had sword fighting. Percy was the only one who was there when you reached, so you both decided to have a friendly match.

Both of you were equally good, despite you being in camp longer than Percy. He had been on actual quests, something you hadn't done yet, so he had more experience. The round ended with both of you pointing your swords at the other's chest plates, grinning at how well you both did.

Nico had reached the arena a little after you started, looking at you and Percy spar, entranced with both of your skills and asked Percy to teach him to fight.

Percy looked around for an excuse- for some reason he didn't like the amount of attention Nico was giving him.

"I… uhhh have some… things to look at right now… maybe later? For now maybe Y/n can help you. What do you say y/n?" Percy looked over at you just as you finished taking a gulp of water.

"Yeah sure, if Nico's alright with it"

"I want to learn to fight like Percy" Nico said excitedly, "whoever can teach me".

"Ok then Nico, let's find you a sword".

Nico was kind of a natural at sword fighting. He could parry easily, and even though the sword wasn't perfect for him, he was able to handle it pretty well. He also tried archery and spears, but nothing came to him as naturally.

You both finished practice and again your mind was filled with negative thoughts of Annabeth. 'You should've gone with them to Maine' was all your mind was saying, even though a small rational part said that it wasn't your fault. The rest of your day was free, but you didn't want to be alone. Your thoughts were at the moment not the best to be alone with. But hey maybe you could complete that maths homework you got for the winter break.

"Hey Y/n? You want to play a game of Mythomagic with me?" Nico asked, pulling you out of the chain of thoughts. "I can teach you how to play!"

Well that's better than you blaming yourself for Annabeth's disappearance.

"Sure"

If Mythomagic was a weapon, it's be very hard to defeat Nico in a fight. Even with your knowledge of Greek beings, you could not use your cards to win the match. After countless rounds of the game, it was time for your hand to hand combat practice, so you took Nico along with and taught him some techniques. After that it was time for dinner.

When everyone finished eating, Chiron made the customary toast to the gods and formally welcomed the Hunters of Artemis, which was punctuated with a few half hearted claps. Then he announced the ‘goodwill’ capture-the-flag game for tomorrow night, which got a much better reception.

You saw Nico talking to Travis and Connor at the Hermes table and wondered what the twins were up to now. After dinner you talked to a few campers, who were mostly discussing the strategies for the game tomorrow. You met Percy and talked a bit about where Annabeth could be. You concluded that if either of you had any dream about her, you would talk about it.

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️

The next morning, you talked to a few Hunters, mostly to Bianca and the newer members before going for practice. Rock climbing with a satyr, sword practice with Percy and then with Nico, archery with the Hunters and hand to hand sparring with Thalia.

Percy talked to you about the dream he had last night, how he'd seen Annabeth in a cavern. How he'd seen Luke under a rock, and how he'd trick Annabeth under it. Luke Castellan- he was someone you looked upto when you first came to camp, but after what all has happened.... Let's just say you didn't have many good things to say about him. Your dream last night was just you, in a dark room while voices of people you knew blamed you for Annabeth's disappearance, so you didn't exactly share that with Percy.

After the practice you were tired and decided to take a nap. You thought it would be better to have some rest before capture-the-flag, but that didn't really make things better.

In your dream, you saw Annabeth as she struggled to hold a huge darkness above her, very similar to what Percy had told you about. You heard a deep voice laughing in the background, saying something you couldn't make out. You saw Luke, he was scratched and his clothes torn. He was talking with a few dracaena, giving them some orders. The scene shifted, and this time you saw Lady Artemis as she made her way through a forest, looking for the prey she was after. You then saw Annabeth again, this time as tears rolled down her face, weak and tired of holding up the roof of the cavern.

You woke up with a start, drenched in sweat. It was late, about an hour to dinner. You went to the bathroom to freshen up before going to where you were supposed to meet Nico for yet another round of his card game.

You kept spacing out during the game, your mind trailing back to the dream you just saw. Again, doubt and guilt bombarded your thoughts, your mind working against itself as you blamed yourself for her disappearance. You excused yourself from the game when you saw Percy, and told him about your dream. He pointed out the various similarities between both of your dreams.

You were distracted throughout dinner. The same thoughts, the same fears kept coming back. This was also the reason why you were unable to defend your flag during the game, a simple smoke arrow enough for the Hunters to get to it. They won, yet again, an argument breaking out between Percy and Thalia.

You immediately step between them, trying to stop the argument. But only the Oracle was able to stop them, when it recited a prophecy as Zoe stepped forward.

You were not a cabin counselor, and thus were not at the meeting when the people who would be going to the quest were determined. That didn't stop you, and Percy, from trying to convince them to take you with. Zoe was very clear with it, and though she would prefer traveling with you rather than Grover, she said his satyr nature magic might come in handy. Thalia, well she wanted you to be safe. In the few months she had known you, you reminded her a lot of Annabeth, and she didn't want to lose you too.

"I wasn't there last time and she didn't come back" you said, trying to stop the tears of guilt that were trying to fall. "You heard the prophecy Thalia, maybe I'll be able to help. Maybe if I'm there no one will-"

"Wait," Thalia said "I hope you're not blaming yourself for her disappearance Y/N, it was none of your fault. We were there and we should've kept her safe. Please promise me you won't blame yourself".

A few tears rolled down your face "But-"

"None of that, it was NOT your fault ok?" was all she said before she said good night, and went to prepare her stuff for the quest.

You were still worried of course, Thalia, Grover, Bianca, Zoe and Phoebe... they were all your friends. After you had talked to Zoe for the third time within one hour, to which she said you couldn't come, again, Bianca walked over to you.

"Hi Y/N can.... Can I ask you for a favor?" she asked. She looked anxious and stressed about the quest, you nodded for her to go ahead. "Look, I asked a few of the hunters to take care of Nico, but guess they've stayed away from boys so long they want to interact with them in the least way possible. And Nico seems to look up to you a lot, so maybe you could look after him till I'm gone?"

You didn't quite understand why she was asking you to do it, she had known you for less than two days. "I will, but... why me?"

"Nico... he is not very good with people, but he genuinely looked happy when he was learning and playing with you. He doesn't let many people in, and if has let you, I know I can trust you. He gets impulsive when he's angry and right now he isn't very happy about me leaving on this quest, but I need to go."

"I understand. Don't worry Bianca, I'll look after him. I'm one of the only campers from my cabin who's here and I could use some company. Besides, Mythomagic is kinda starting to grow on me." You said with a smile that she returned, but you could see it was slightly forced.

"I promise I'll take care of him. And when you come back, you can tell him how amazing your quest was! He is so amazed by hearing about them from the campers, imagine how excited he'd be to hear them from his sister." you said and she laughed lightly.

"Thank you Y/n"

❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️❇️✳️

Percy vanished the next day. He definitely went after the group that left for the quest. You chided yourself for not thinking of that. But then you found out Phoebe wasn't able to leave which meant in the end the fifth person was supposed to be Percy. And there was the promise you had made to Bianca that you'd be there for Nico till she came back. Maybe that's what the Fates wanted you to do.

It had been a few days since they had left for the quest, and you hadn't heard anything from them. You were getting more anxious everyday. Your dreams weren't getting better, and now sitting at the docks with Nico, playing Mythomagic, you were thinking what they meant. You had a bad feeling and even Nico had told you he was scared for Bianca. He said he had felt something a few days back, something that troubled him so much he came to you at night.

You had a hunch about Nico's godly parent and if that was true....

"Y/n it's your turn!" Nico said, startling you, and you almost fell into the lake.

"umm..." you checked his cards and placed yours, clearly winning the match.

"No fair!" he complained as you grinned. "Hey! I taught you how to play! You should thank me!" he huffed seeing your proud smile.

You ruffled his hair and laughed as he tried to swat your hand away.

"Thank you, Nico, Great Master of the ways of Mythomagic" you said, bowing your head as he laughed at your words.

You both had grown very close in the past few days. You helped him with combat and knowledge of the Greek gods and monsters, finding the difference between the real and Mythomagic versions of them.

His sword fighting skills had gotten much better. You both would practice and when free would play the game with other campers who would like to join after being persuaded by Nico. Nico would win almost every time. You would definitely miss your time with Nico when you returned home after winter break. But he'd be here next summer, so you could have a younger sibling after a few months again.

Nico started rambling about some random facts about ancient Greece he'd learned from the limited edition cards he'd collected andyou smiled at him. Granted, most of it was inaccurate and you'd have to tell him the actual facts later, but just listening to him talk with such excitement made you feel happy. You felt the urge to just keep him safe from the world. And yes he was annoying sometimes, so were the other younger campers sometimes, but all of them made you feel the same way Nico did now. Protective.

The world was a difficult place to live in, especially for demigods. So you wanted to do everything you could to give the younger campers a comparatively normal childhood.

You heard some of the campers say that Percy was back from the quest. Nico immediately started skipping over to the Big House, excited to finally meet his sister after a long time. You were about to go after him when someone pulled you aside.

"Y/n, his sister... we heard she didn't make it"one of the Athena campers told you, with a pointed look towards Nico.

All the blood drained from you. You turned to look at Nico, he was almost at the House. You ran towards him, calling him out but he didn't look back. What would you have said anyway? The guilt you had felt with Annabeth hit you again-this time it was Bianca who didn't come back, and again you weren't there to help.

Tears made their way to your eyes, and you were surprised to see how fast you had reached the Big House. But Nico was already at the door, looking inside trying to spot a person who wasn't there. Percy stood in front of him, facing you. Your eyes met his and one look from him told you that the news was true. The last bit of hope left you as you stood there, tears threatening to fall.

You stayed at a close distance as Percy talked to Nico, you could Percy talk, but not make out exactly what he was saying. The silence from Nico, easily one of the most talkative people you knew, was enough to break you. You wiped the tears that managed to fall despite your efforts. You were trying to control your sniffling when you heard a shuddering sound from behind you.

You turned to see four men with dull grey skin, yellow eyes in grey vests, camo trousers and boots. Their flesh was transparent and their bones shimmered underneath. You didn't know how they had managed to get inside the camp's barrier, and immediately grabbed your sword hilt - that transformed into a meter long blade, ready to take them down. But they walked right past you. You swung your sword at one's shoulder, severing it's arm. But it simply picked it up and placed it back, the flesh around it regenerating. They were walking towards Percy - towards Nico.

You made your way to them, screaming a warning "Percy look out!"

Percy turned around at your voice, seeing the zombie creatures, his eyes widening with what you thought was recognition. He pushed Nico away, telling him to run while he uncapped Riptide. You stabbed one of the skeletons, this time however, managing to anger it enough for it to attack back.

You and Percy were barely able to keep them at bay. Nico was saying things about how Percy had betrayed him, how he had broken his promise. Each word he said seemed to stab your heart. You knew it wasn't Percy's fault, as much as it wasn't yours, but you couldn't seem to shake the feeling of dread, that maybe you could've saved her.

Caught up in your thoughts, one of the skeletons managed to slash your arm, cutting deep into your flesh as you screamed in pain.

That's when you felt the Earth shake. Below the skeletons, a huge chasm opened up,swallowing them whole. You looked, startled, at the crack that separated you from Nico and realised your hunch was correct. He was a son of the Underworld.

Nico looked at your wide eyes sadly and mouthed 'I am very sorry' before he ran towards the woods.

"Nico, wait!" you screamed and began to run after him, only to feel dizzy. Percy caught you before you hit the ground.

"Y/N, you're hurt, you need to-"

"Percy." you looked him in the eye "Go after him. Now."

He didn't miss a beat as he nodded and ran after Nico, yelling at the few campers to help you.

As your wound was being stitched at the infirmary, your mind was all over the place. You needed to find Nico before he did something that would hurt him. As soon as they finished patching you up, you ran (as much as you could without undoing your stitches) towards the forest, despite the best attempts to stop you.

You found Percy, Annabeth and Grover looking for Nico. When you came into view, they frowned, your shirt was still drenched with blood and you were having trouble walking because of the pain. But Percy had seen you and Nico interact and he knew you both had become friends. He decided that at least you should get to know the truth about Nico.

He walked over to you and held out a small figurine. It was the kind Nico had with his card collection. You examined it carefully.

Hades, Lord of the Underworld.

You told them how Nico said he had felt Bianca a few days back. Percy then explained to you how Nico and Bianca were children of Hades, born before the oath was made and that they had been at Lotus Casino, a place where he, Annabeth and Grover had been to the first time they went on a quest.

"We're not telling Chiron about this" Percy said, "If this information stays unknown, Luke will not go after Nico. That could keep him safe. Also we don't want the gods fighting if they found out."

You nodded, but Grover said "But you can't hide things from the gods. Not forever"

"I don't need forever, just two years. Until I'm sixteen" Percy said. "I choose the prophecy. It will be about me. I can't let Nico be in any more danger. I owe that much to his sister. I'm not going to let him suffer any more"

"Y/N you need to rest. That wound will take time to heal" Annabeth said, carefully putting a hand on your good shoulder. You looked ather and realised how relieved you were to finally see her back and safe. You smiled at her.

"You had me so worried y'know? Don't disappear like that again" you said, hugging her with your good arm."What's with the streak by the way? Both you and Percy have one." you asked, eyeing the patch of grey that had appeared in her blonde hair.

"Right, we need to tell you about what all has happened. We have a bit of new information"

That night, sleep was hard to come. Percy and Annabeth had managed to convince Chiron that the skeletons were responsible for the chasm and that Nico had run away to the forest and disappeared. You kept thinking about Bianca and Zoe. While you knew not to bury yourself deep in guilt, your negative thoughts were too intrusive. Lasttwo times your friends left, they were in trouble. Now Nico too was gone. You remembered your promise to Bianca before she left.

"Maybe you could look after him till I'm gone?"

The words kept coming back to you. You needed to keep your promise. You had to keep him safe. You told Bianca you would.

You took the figurine of Hades that Percy had told you to keep. Holding it in your hand you made a silent promise to yourself.

You had to find Nico. You had to keep him safe and bring him home.
