#so much to say about piper… thanks for the ask!!! ily!!!

[arachnidiots-a]

can we hear more abt piper pretty please

!!!!! absolutely !!!!! i’ll probably make a more expansive post later for piper along the lines of what martin and emmett have with their mini wikis but …

piper is a former classmate of liam’s from university. the two shared a lot of environmental science classes together, but never were really more than the occasional buddies and homework helpers. they were the kinds of acquaintances you get when you sit next to someone on the first day and then just text when you have a question about class. through undergrad there really isn’t much going on, liam does really want to be friends but they don’t know how to quite make the jump from acquaintance to friend.

life then gets in the way for liam— in main verse this would be liam going on their multiverse tour for a hot bit and then dropping out of college when they return. in other verses it’s either sports or crazy life altering accidents that occupy liam’s mind a bit more than any college lecture. in music verse liam just focuses on their music here because they’re kinda gaining traction! actually in tl verse, piper’s timeline gets switched around a bit and she’s a bigger part of college liam’s life. that and pjo piper is also pretty different but that’s because it’s pjo

the two reconnect some years down the road, piper’s pursuing a phd in physics and liam is doing all sorts of stuff on their own (building the web network, touring, firefighting, vigilante-ing). piper’s committed and steadfast to her work and her career, research is kind of everything. she doesn’t take to workplace shenanigans all too well, but where liam is concerned… piper finds herself bending some rules. for someone in a research and patience based field, piper is known to be a little impatient. she’ll go check on stuff, take over the action, or simply triple email if she doesn’t get what she’s looking for too quickly. there’s a pretty high level of confidence to her (she’s earned it!) and she wears it quite well. there’s hardly a maybe, perhaps, or don’t know in her day to day vocabulary.

piper is however a tragic and doomed character. she’s fated to die in the arms of liam who will not be able to save her no matter the circumstance. she’s a little bit of a gwen in that way for liam— not intentionally, piper just happens to be an npc and liam happens to have quite a few verses on here where i keep adapting the main story towards other verses. there’s definitely worlds out there where piper doesn’t die, and both of them get to live but those worlds are tragic in their own ways. there’s probably a world or two where they do end up together, or even break up but it’s not because of any fate or destiny.

i could go on and on about main piper and the various different alt verse pipers but it is also apparently one am so!! if you want to know anything specific feel free to send more asks!!

Yoyoyo i just reread wcwsthwas for the sixth time, in 7.5 hours, and i wanted to ask about your writing process. I think the thing that makes your fics incredibly special and high-quality is the fact you have a very high skill level for natural writing and dialogue.

Reading your fics genuinely feels like i’m reading a Riordan novel, but with even better pacing and emotional writing. The only thing riordan can do better is fight scenes. And he’s a massively talented and accredited author who makes millions from his books. You are a fanfic writer. It should not be close.

I wanted to ask if you use any references or have any inspiration for the way you write dialogue? Because it’s incredibly natural and well done.

THE SIXTH TIME SDFGHHJKL i snorted

anyway you hit the nail on the head! i've always been insecure about how i can't write pretty. d'ya know what i mean? i can't do lovely pretty descriptive metaphorical writing that just makes you think wow. but i do pay a lot of attention, like you said EXACTLY, to my dialogue and emotional writing.

for my emotional writing, i think that comes from being very introspective and attuned to my emotions myself. i'm an emotional person and it's taken me many years to really fully understand how i process things and how i function. i have had a lot of complex relationships with people who, while still close to me, are completely opposite to me in terms of how they process stuff themselves. percy and annabeth dealing with their emotions so differently in wcwsthwas is directly from me and my ex boyfriend: i'm very much like percy, and he's like annabeth in the sense that he needs to take a step back to really think about things before he acts on it. a lot of how i feel about friendships and love i've given to leo, and a lot of how i feel about my own culture was given to piper and frank. someone asked me this recently, but i've based piper on a bunch of my best friends, so that's probably why she comes off the way she does in my fic.

draw on your own emotions and experiences when you're writing a scene! emotions are complex and interesting. try to think about how you'd react, or try putting yourself into the shoes of that character. i also do a lot of observation about myself and other people around me. i see how people react to things, and how it shows up on their faces or hands or whatever. that helps me a lot while i'm writing.

for dialogue, i have no clue, honestly. i try to keep it simple as far as i can, i think. nobody's grandiose with their speech in real life (or maybe they are, and i hang out with a bunch of degenerates). i think i overuse the dashes in my dialogue (—) but that kind of stuff is important to me, because nobody's usually just rattling off a big speech in a single breath. there's always some hesitation, people talking over each other, stuff like that, punctuated by glances or gestures. try to play your dialogue in your head like it's a movie. keep it natural, and see how it would play out. for fics like ''cause you've been sinning in this city' i literally did not even attempt to have any dialogue make sense. when i'm talking to my friends, half the shit we say is just inside jokes that would not make a shred of sense to anyone else. stuff like that works too!

this reply turned into an ESSAY but the tl;dr is to keep it simple, write what you know, and trust your gut! but that being said, you don't have to be great at these things to be an awesome writer. i figured out my strengths as a writer the more i wrote, and you will, too. hey, you could be one of those writers who write all pretty that i so envy.

you always ask wonderful questions and ily for that!! also thank you sm for your support. i'd tell you to stop wasting ALMOST 8 HOURS rereading my stupid fic but i know you won't listen dfghjkldjn

i hope this helped a lil bit!

[crushing-on-nico-di-angelo]

This is kind of a random question but...

Do you know why people hate Rick Riordan?

I just have no information, and I’ve seen a lot of stuff lately talking about how he’s problematic.

hi!! yes, I've seen things about this as well. I can list the reasons I've seen. I don't agree with all the points made, but its just what I've seen and I think it may answer your question. I also recommend going through the tag #rr crit, as it will give you a lot more and detailed information regarding him (beware: there are quite a few buzzwords. I recommend taking the facts and forming your own conclusions). I also think it's important to note that many people don't hate him, but they acknowledge that since he's a cishet white man there's things he didn't handle well and he needs to listen to critisicm.

Completely mishandled Piper's native American heritage. From the feather in her hair, to her dad being from a reservation that doesn't exist in Oklahoma, to having kaleidoscope eyes (some say that it suggests brown eyes aren't beautiful enough for aphrodite, more on this in the next bullet), to being a kleptomaniac, her character is, ignorantly or purposefully, chock full of stereotypes. having a cornucopia being her weapon. when Rick was told that this isn't good he became defensive and didn't listen to any critisicm

not giving female characters chances to be young, or not have a boyfriend or be unconventionally attractive. if they do get to not have a boyfriend, they're thrown into the Hunters of Artemis. their eyes are anything but brown (I do disagree with the eye thing but it's important to note), suggesting that having brown eyes should be considered less than. Sadie got a 1000 year old boyfriend when she was 14. 13 year old Hazel had a 16 year old boyfriend-- that could be a seventh grader and a junior or a freshman and sophomore depending on how you look at it (and I LOVE frazel, don't get me wrong. the age gap is just,,). in fact, the only female non-hunter without a significant other I can name is Meg, and she's 12.

Sadie Kane and the fanart he boosts of her. he frequently shows her looking completely white, despite saying she "stood out in class for being mixed." It honestly wouldn't surprise me if a white girl were cast to play her in the Netflix movies.

treatment of characters with invisible disabilities. this can range from the coment of "You anemic loser" targeted at Octavian (as someone with an iron deficiency, I don't see anything wrong with it, but cmon. kids can see that, rick. you can't control anemia) to Clovis' chronic fatigue being treated as a joke. invisible disabilities are hard and just as painful as physical ones. it doesn't help if you treat them like that.

too much misogyny to list all of it, but we can start with young girls being expected to be, and acting, more mature than they are; the strong female characters portraying the "I'm not like other girls" trope; the entire way Hera was treated.

The way Nico's outing was handled (this is one I especially disagree with, and this post said it best, thanks ghost). A violent outing by the God of love taking place before Nico was ready, according to some, was not what younger gay people needed to see. he should have had a loving environment and, at the very least, it should have been from his own point of view and not Jason's.

anti-acne and fat phobia: Apollo having a deep hatred towards his acne and Frank's glow up including severe weight loss (not being a cuddly teddybear anymore, getting taller) isn't the best thing for kids who have acne or are fat to see.

Samirah al-Abbas: "reversing the stereotype (Rick's words)" of an arranged marriage by having her be in love with a distant cousin is... not reversing the stereotype at all actually. it just falls into it. Having her take off her hijab around floor 19 because they feel like family is also not great, because, to my understanding as a non-hijabi and non-muslim, that is not how being hijabi works. similar to the piper situation, when Rick was told that this isn't good he became defensive and didn't listen to any critisicm

ANTISEMITISM, ANTISEMETISM, ANTISEMITISM. this is one of the ones I agree with the most. Having Hades' children be Nazis, having a plot point revolve around one of the most traumatic events in world history, ignoring the fact of generational trauma and ignoring the fact that It Didn't Matter That It Took Place In World War Three, it could have not had any correlation to the death of over six million Jewish people. it legitimizes evilsurrounding Hades and death, and -- well, this one makes me so mad, I can't explain all of it so here is a post explaining more in depth

Slavery issues: similar to the holocaust, Rick Riordan made one of the most terrible issues in American History into a fight between demigods. this lowers the legitimacy of the issue, makes it seem fictional, makes Camp Jupiter seem terrible and awful, except it doesn't. because camp Jupiter isn't terrible. but the confederacy was. if children, especially white children, learn about the confederacy through camp Jupiter, it makes it seem way less bad than it was.

again, I don't agree with all of this, it's just reasoning as to why. in my eyes, Rick Riordan is a man who has grown in his telling of his stories. he started with a canonical all white, all straight, all cis cast. he has now a series featuring a latino genderfluid queer person. This Post said it better than I ever could.

I know that it's impact over intent in so many situations. and this isn't to say I disagree with all, or even most of his critisim. I just think that he has good intent, and I hate him for absolutely none of it.

I am gay, I am Latino, and I am trans. that is all I can speak on, and I think his rep for that was great. I hope this answered your question, dear anon. again, I encourage you to do your own research and form your own opinions. I only touched on a few issues that Rick has had and there's a lot more to be talked about. I would say to keep in mind his intent and his growth. thank you for the ask, thank you for directing it to me that made me feel happy lol. ily I hope you have a good day

if anyone else has anything to add, by all means please do!!

16/20 for percabeth pls? ily🥺

16.  “Touch me here.”

20. “I... am uncomfortably aroused.”

“Percy,” Annabeth called, stepping into her bedroom and assuming he would be there. The sound of his name was muffled because she had a toothpick buried in her mouth, digging around for a popcorn kernel she could feel but not seem to actually finger. Eating in the midst of her late night studying had been a terrible idea.

As suspected, Percy had already climbed into bed, his tongue peeking out the corner of his mouth as he focused on his phone. In the week leading up to finals he’d been avoiding studying in his free time by playing some game that had just come out. From Annabeth’s understanding, Hazel and Leo had also been indulging in this poorly timed distraction. That night, instead of looking up or responding, Percy just grunted in response to her call.

Annabeth shook his blanket covered leg in an attempt to get his attention. It failed. “I need your help.”

“Gimme a minute,” he replied, still not so much as glancing away from his game.

“I’m in pain, Percy,” she whined, shaking his leg again, completely and utterly shameless.

That was enough to get him to put his phone down. Percy’s brow furrowed and his lips turned out into a pout. Annabeth only felt a tiny bit bad for exaggerating the situation in response to his adorable and genuine concern. “What’s wrong?” he asked.

She pointed at her mouth with her toothpick, having given up on digging. “I have a popcorn kernel stuck in my teeth.”

He blinked at her in confusion for several seconds. “What do you expect me to do about it.”

“Help me get it out,” Annabeth replied flatly. That much she assumed had been obvious. She and Piper had been doing this kind of thing for each other for years, and she would have gone straight to the expert were her best friend not spending the night at Jason’s.

“How?” Percy pressed, his furrowed brow now smoothed out and raised high.

“I’ll shine my phone’s flashlight into my mouth and you dig the thing out,” she told him, signaling to her phone and the toothpick she’d been using for close to half an hour already in her own futile attempt to get her tooth cleared. “Feeling for it isn’t working and I tried looking for it in the mirror, but I can’t see anything. You’ll be able to see it better than I can.”

For several more seconds Percy just stared at her, and Annabeth started to think he’d refuse to help her, but then he sighed and set his phone aside. “Open your mouth, you adorable weirdo.”

“Thank you. It’s on the left, top teeth, toward the back,” she said, scooting a little closer, turning on the flashlight feature on her phone, and then opening her mouth wide.

Percy opted to skip the toothpick initially, instead taking a deep breath and sticking his finger straight in her mouth. His other hand cradled the back of her head gently, tilting her face to the optimal angle for him. He probed each of the teeth on the upper left side of her mouth, trying to see inside around his own hand. Piper’s hands were much smaller, fingers thin and delicate. Annabeth supposed it was more of a challenge for him to see anything than she had expected, but she helped by grunting when she felt his finger brush against the offending kernel.

“Is that it?” he asked, his brow furrowing again.

“Uh-huh,” she replied, more or less another grunt, just with a little inflection this time.

His grimace continued to deepen as he tried to nudge the kernel free while ducking his head to see around his own hand, until his lips were in such a tight, thin line, his mouth just about disappeared entirely.

“What’s wrong?” Annabeth asked, but his hand in her mouth resulted in the words sounding more like, huts hong.

He shook his head, but his expression didn’t relax at all. Annabeth gave him a gentle poke in the stomach to prod him into answering and his eyes flickered across her face for a second while he contemplated what to say. “I… am uncomfortably aroused.”

Two things happened at once – Percy managed to dislodge the kernel and Annabeth promptly bit down on his finger. When he yanked his hand away and stared at her, a mix of indignation and amusement, Annabeth poked him in the stomach again. “I was in pain and you were aroused?”

“Uncomfortably,” he repeated, as if that made it better.

“What about that was even remotely arousing?” she asked with a scoff.

Shrugging, Percy settled himself back against the headboard. “It’s just your mouth is all… And your tongue kept brushing my finger, then you made those grunting noises, and… you know.”

Annabeth opted to pinch him lightly through his shirt this time, something she’d learned tickled him more than hurt, her face suddenly feeling very heated. “See if I ever ask you to do that for me again, you pervert.”

“Good,” he said, his expression melting into pure amusement as she got to her feet to head back to the bathroom and brush her teeth. “That’s not something I ever wanted to do, anyway!”

Dialogue Prompts!

[hoes4hoseok]

what was your first impression of your moots?

no one has ever sent me something anonymously wow thanks 👁️👄👁️ (also this gets off-topic and turns into a love distribution fest later so...)

disclaimer: i didn't do every single one of my moots, bit I've been writing this for over a month so cut me some slack.

ALSO I have a ton of typos and switch between 1st and 2nd person multiple times so please excuse the terrible writing😭

&& before I begin, I'd like to thank everyone who was patient and caring while I was gone. it means a lot. I love you all, and happy holidays (and new year at this point����) to everyone who celebrates!

okay! here we go:

@hanniiesuckle17 -> okay so I started by low-key binging her stray kids works and then was like '🤩 I have to comment, this is too good'. so I did, and she was like...the sweetest? fr I was so happy because I had never interacted here and was super awk. I truly appreciate how kind she was to me when I was still new to tumblr; it made me confident enough to interact with people more and I can't thank her enough for it 🥺💘

@hyukaite -> kat! AHHH I remember following you bc I saw one of your blue hour concept photo (?) edits and was like "🤩 I want more". and then you asked if anyone wanted to play among us a couple of days later and I said HELL YES and joined && it was prob my best decision of october lmao <3 I remember thinking that you prob didn't wanna talk to me though so 🙈. thank you for being so fun and always making me laugh w your clapped instagram reels! you're active so often and I love talking to you about the most random shit (even when we were faking 99% of what we were saying DNFJFKFKFK resin)

@unlocktxt -> I'mma start w how much I admire you bc...well, I REALLY DO—you're so carefree (when appropriate ʕ´•ᴥ•`ʔ) and on the first day we made au moas I remember feeling 1000% more comfortable after listening and watching you jam out to everlasting shine hehe. (I also rlly appreciate (and admire) that you're always the quickest to realize when someone feels uncomfortable and checking in when you can🥺)

@strykiss -> our friendship had a very ✨unique✨ start but hERE WE ARE. I literally just thought you were young. like. you radiated pure positive ((& baby)) vibes. OKAY in all seriousness, you bring positive energy w you wherever you go and I love that for you ( ◜‿◝ )♡. it makes me so happy when you start saying what ever amie-talk there is for the day, even when I'm just reading your conversations in our group. again, you're a constant energizer whether you're trying to playing some new game w kat and lexi or if you're just talking like you usually do. this felt super repetitive but I hope it gets the point across—ly amie!

@missskzbiased -> my mbti pal! I was surprised that someone actually wanted to talk to me DNFIFJFJ but I'm soooo glad we did. thank you for tagging me in tag games (&& not getting annoyed when I tag you in everything dncjfjcj) and being one of my first friends here🥰you're super sweet and I love interacting w you a lot🥺

@yawnjunie -> blu! the mastermind who sensed my seokmin energy (still got no idea how you did it but 🧠). okay when we first started talking i thought you were hella smart for your age—at least, that's what I got from that first stats exchange lmao (you weren't very active back then either🗿 [december piper is cringing bc she's much worse] but ily anyways:D💕)

I honestly don’t remember. Every since the first one I just use the same lookbook PSD that has the sparkle on it. These look similar though so try them.

Anonymous said: Heey love :) I am obssessed with your hairstyles *_* you're the reason I switched from alpha to MM :) just wanted to ask you how come you no longer include recolors for your latest hairstyles? :)

well there were a few reasons:

1). I never used the recolors myself. I like the colors I just never used them 2). I got comments about the colors looking too metalic 3). I had started Patreon around that time and doing recolors for 3 (and sometimes more) hairs every month would have been a lot. Especially bc my DDS was broken so I had to do them a bit more complicated than just saving as DDS. 

I know that some people really liked my recolors, and I am sorry if me stopping caused any issues. There are actions for the hair colors and recoloring hair is really easy to learn and do.

honestly most of the time i do stuff differently. I run the same topaz/sharpening actions every time and then add some shadows and play with curves. Nothing that is super intensive tbh. I wouldn’t even know how to go about doing a tutorial tbh

@wcifblog​ said: Hi, I am in love with your CC. I'm a simmer for a long time but just lately I've been trying to learn how to make my own CC. I've seen some of your speed meshing videos and I was wondering if you'd ever consider making a tutorial for beginners on how to create a new mesh from scratch. (I'm trying to create a curly hair on blender but I'm stupid I guess). Thank you so much for all your work, love, Kel.

hey! thank you so much <3 I actually don’t mesh stuff from scratch though. So I’m afraid I am not able to help in that department :( I’m sorry

@tarrinix​ said: would it be possible for you to upload a mass file for download that has all of your hairs? (I'm asking for only the ones created by you so others don't miss out of credit links and things like that.)

I really wanted to get all my 2019 CC updated before the end of the year and have it up in a .zip. But I never got around do updating stuff from the start of the year. I need to get back into updating stuff I just am so.. unmotivated recently? Idk hopefully I can get all my stuff updated in the next few months and have some mass downloads for 2017, 2018, and 2019 stuff.

“Percy! Get up, we have to leave for school.” 

Annabeth called out, cracking an egg into the bowl as she prepared some scrambled eggs.

Having been Percy’s partner for so long, she knew how slow he was to get moving in the morning.

Sure enough, a minute later her partner came wandering out of his room, yawning as he slunk into the bathroom and the shower turned on a moment later. 

Humming to herself, Annabeth finished serving up the two plates of breakfast and set the table as she started to eat her own meal, glad her partner had decided to actually get up responsibly today.

A few minutes later Percy wandered to their small table in their apartment, grabbing a piece of toast and eating it as he let out one last yawn. 

“I told you to dry off properly before eating, don’t drip everywhere.” Annabeth warned, narrowing her eyes at his freshly showered hair that was dripping his water down onto his shoulders and rolling off onto the floor. 

“No time, we’re going to be late.” He echoed her, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. 

Rolling her eyes, Annabeth just finished up her food and moved to the kitchen to wash her dishes. “Then let’s go.” 

She saw him scoop about half the plate into his mouth at once as he started washing his plate too while she finished putting her textbooks in her bag. 

“Annabeth?”

He asked, leaning around the corner as he put the plate in the drying rack.

“Hm?” She called, struggling with the zipper for a moment as she glanced back at him. 

“Thanks for breakfast, it was delicious.” He said with a warm smile. 

She felt her cheeks burn slightly as she looked away. “No problem.”

Soon they were off on their way to the academy, her arms wrapped around his waist as they rode on his motorcycle. 

They parked it in their usual spot, and made their way up to the large steps to the DWMA. 

When they got to the top, they heard a familiar argument. 

“Come on, you’re my partner.”

“That’s why I need to make sure you learn.”

“Just let me borrow them today!” 

“I said no.”

“If your meister fails, you’ll fail too.”

“You’re not going to fail.”

A familiar pair was standing there bickering. The blonde boy with his arms crossed as he watched his meister put on a puppy dog face. 

“I take it you didn’t study?” Annabeth asked, a small grin on her face.

Piper just scoffed. “I did most of the work! I just got a little distracted.”

Percy laughed at her. “You never learn, huh?”

The meister turned her attention to him. “Like you’re one to talk.” She countered, raising an eyebrow. “Did you steal Annabeth’s notes while she slept again?”

Whipping her head around, Annabeth glared at her partner. “You did that?”

Shrinking back, Percy raised his hands. “Once!” Before he turned back to Piper. “No, unlike some others, I actually learn from my mistakes.”

“Or I won’t give you dinner till you finish studying.”

“That too.”

Jason laughed. “That’s sad dude.”

Percy stepped up. “You say something, sparky?”

Jason shrugged. “I just think a weapon should be a little more responsible.”

“Annabeth is the genius in this partnership. I trust her completely, it’s my job to provide the strength. Something you could work on.”

This time Jason flinched slightly. “Oh?” He countered, squaring his shoulders. “You sure you wanna pick a fight so far from the ocean?”

A troublemaker smile crept across Percy’s face, and Annabeth sighed knowing what was happening.

“If I’m just fighting you I don’t need the ocean. I would have to make Piper find a new partner.”

“Try it, Jackson.”

Percy stepped back as he held out his arm. It glowed, and a moment later it was replaced a bronze sword blade from the elbow down.

Jason’s own arm as his own arm was replaced by the end of the spear. 

“Are they seriously at it again?” Hazel’s voice cut in as she walked up with Frank, who was happily eating a muffin.

“Unfortunately our idiots seem energetic this morning.” Piper complained as they watched the boy’s clash. 

Annabeth had her head in her hands. “Can we just get to class without a fight breaking out once?” She turned towards where Percy had just skidded back. “Percy, we’re going to be late. Hurry up. Or else.”

“Go on without me! I need to finish teaching him a lesson.” He replied as he spun, planting his foot in Jason’s stomach and swiping at him only to be met with the spear. 

Annabeth frowned, feeling her annoyance peak. She was not going to be late because her stupid partner had a rivalary with her best friend’s weapon. 

“Need help?” Another voice asked as Annabeth turned to see a pixie haired girl walk up with her partner who Annabeth was pretty sure wasn’t actually fully conscious. 

Scratching the back of her head, Annabeth sighed. “I’m not in the mood to deal with them. Can you break it up?” 

The cheery girl grinned, saluting. “On it! Tyler, you’re up.”

“Mmm..” Was the boy’s response, his eyes still shut as he yawned and took his partner’s hand. The boy glowed for a moment before his whole form shifted into a large bow.

“Soul Resonance!” Everyone took a step back as the girl took a step back into a stance, pulling the glowing bow string back to the full draw distance. The air around her was chilled, as an icy mist crept from the arrow.

Annabeth saw the girl take a deep breath, before she fired. 

Just as the boys landed, swinging towards each other, the arrow struck the ground between their feet before it exploded upwards into an icy pillar. Smoke erupted from the impact, and both of them flew backwards, sliding to a stop on the ground. 

Annabeth walked over to where Percy was, sitting up and rolling his shoulders. He was clearly about to start complaining about the interference until he saw Annabeth glaring down at him. 

“Stop picking fights with your friends.”

Percy looked up at her, opening his mouth to counter before he sighed and looked down and away. “I’m sorry. I just don’t want to lose to him.”

Sighing, seeing his crestfallen expression Annabeth just reached down a hand.

He looked up at her hand, before shifting to her and giving her a soft smile.

“As long as I’m your meister, you won’t lose to anyone. I’ll make you the strongest weapon here.”

Percy took her hand, and stood up, still holding it for a moment. “Of course, I do have the best Meister after all.”

Glancing over, Annabeth saw Piper walking back with Jason, having given him back his glasses that had been knocked off.

The group was back together after a moment, Tyler resting his head on Ashe’s shoulder as he let out another yawn. “It’s too early for fighting.” He mumbled. 

“Come on.” Ashe muttered, tussling his hair, waving bye to the group before heading inside. 

Jason and Percy stared each other down for a moment, before Percy reached out a fist. Jason grinned and knocked knuckles with him. 

“Dude, you’re getting stronger.”

“Bro, you’re much faster now.” Percy countered.

Rolling her eyes as how her idiots could go from at each other's throats to a bromance in a matter of minutes Annabeth just ushered the group towards their class, having lost most of the time they had saved by heading over quickly.

When they finally got in to class, they walked over to where Leo and Calypso were sitting. Calypso had a small box of apple slices and peanut butter that Leo was currently eating out of as they chatted happily. “Hey guys.” Leo said, turning around and waving.

They all took their seat after a moment, the more studious ones already pulling out their notes. 

“Sup.” Annabeth turned her head around at the greeting, and Saw Reyna setting down a coffee as she put her bag down.

“Did you finish the essay?” Annabeth asked, noticing Percy slump down next to her and put his head down, already starting to doze off.\

Reyna nodded. “Yeah. Two days ago actually.”

Annabeth was impressed by her friend yet again. Reyna was the only autonomous weapon in their class. Even without a meister she was still able to fight on par with everyone else.

Across the classroom Annabeth saw Tyler and Ashe from earlier. Tyler was looking a lot like her partner, face down on the desk with his shoulders slowly rising and falling, while Ashe was running a hand through his hair gently, a soft smile on his face as she looked at him.

Grinning slightly, she turned back to the rest of her friends as she heard Hazel and Piper starting to discuss how their missions were going. 

A few minutes later their teacher entered the room, downing a coffee and tossing her backpack on her desk, which slid across it before falling off onto the ground. “Sup. Annabeth, Frank, Piper, and Calypso. Bring your team to Chiron’s office, you have a mission. The rest of you, pop quiz time.”

She said, motioning towards the door as their group looked between each other surprised. A group mission? It had been a while since they went on one of those together.

They all glanced between each other a bit, all thinking the same thing.

“Hurry up, or you’re taking the test too.” Thalia added.

They all hurried up and soon found themselves standing at the headmasters office. 

“Welcome students, you’re all doing well I assume?”

“Yes headmaster!” They all called out in chorus.

“It seems we’ve discovered creature well on it’s way to being a kishin. It’s evaded us for now, but we’ve narrowed it’s location down. We’re sending you out to deal with it now, before it grows in danger.”

Percy stepped up slightly. “All of us? I’m pretty sure Annabeth and I can take care of one monster.”

Annabeth stayed silent, but didn’t exactly disagree. She couldn’t be the best meister if she had to constantly rely on others to finish her own job.

“I appreciate your eagerness to prove yourself, young Perseus. But this monster should not be taken lightly. In fact, I'd rather not send students, but all of our death scythes are occupied at the moment.” 

A quiet fell over the group. They hadn’t heard their headmaster so serious in a long time. 

“Your mission is to locate, and destroy the monster. Above all, all of you are to return safely, am I understood?” 

“Yes sir!” They all replied, before making their way out of the room and towards the desk to get their travel info.

A few hours later and they were all assembled at the airport, waiting outside one of the terminals. They all had their one bag, and were chatting together as they waited to finally be able to board. Well, most of them aside from Percy and Annabeth who were huddled off to the side.

“I’m not flying there.” Percy said, crossing his arms. 

Reaching out gently, Annabeth rested her hand on his arm. “I know you don’t like flying, but we don’t have time to find another way. This creature is dangerous.”

Reaching up, he ran a hand through his hair. “I know! I know okay! But… flying isn’t cool. It’s too dangerous. I don’t want to die because I’m trapped in a tin can up in the sky.”

Glancing over, Annabeth saw the rest of the group looking over at them, both exasperated and concerned. They all knew about Percy’s… issues with flying. Which is why they usually took trains or boats when they could.

“Percy, we all have tickets, we’re going to fight a dangerous monster that is way more likely to kill us, and it’s a quick flight. We need you to come on.” 

The voice came over the intercom, letting them know that they were allowed to board now.

Percy took a few steps away from the plane. “You guys go, I’ll grab a train ticket and meet you there.” He countered.

“Percy!” Annabeth snapped, making him flinch. She knew he knew how outrageous he was being, but she could genuinely see the fear in his eyes. He had a crippling fear of flying, and Annabeth really didn’t want to force him to suffer through it.

“Come on, I promise you’ll be safe. I’m with you.” She reached out and grabbed his hand, squeezing it with hers gently.

He gave her a pained expression but nodded after a moment, and let her head him back.

The rest of the group was quiet as they boarded, even Jason wasn’t picking a fight with him. Percy just kept his eyes down at the floor, letting Annabeth lead him.

They all stowed their carry ons, and Percy had headphones in already. She could see how tense he was as he was clearly trying to pretend he didn’t exist for about two hours.

He had the music cranked up, and Annabeth could hear the songs from the earbuds.

Annabeth took a seat, and Piper leaned over the back of hers. “Is he going to be okay?” She asked, glancing over at her friend.

Sighing, Annabeth ran a hand through her hair. “Yeah, he will be. It’s just going to be a rough two hours.” Her voice dripping with concern. She really didn’t like seeing him like this, which is why she usually put up with slower travel when they could if it kept him out of the sky.

Piper gave him one last glance before she slid back into her seat.

Getting comfy in her seat, Annabeth saw his hands clenched tightly around the arm rests as the plane eventually started rumbling as it started to roll along the runway.

Reaching over, she nudged his hand, and he looked at her with wide panicked eyes. She managed to thread her fingers through his as she held his hand, and tried not to flinch with how tightly he was squeezing hers.

Eventually they reached cruising altitude and he seemed to relax, just a little. 

“Hey, you okay?” She asked eventually, leaning over and gently pulling an earbud out.

He forced a smile to his face. “Just peachy.”

Not wanting to call him out, she nodded. “We’re at cruising altitude now. We’ll start landing before long, it’s almost over.” 

He nodded, clearly trying to be nonchalant but she could see the relief in his eyes.

She stood up to go to the bathroom and was surprised to feel him suddenly grab her wrist, looking up at her with a worried expression. 

“I’m just going to the bathroom, I’ll be back in a moment.”

He nodded, releasing her hand and looking away, embarrassed at his own actions.

When Annabeth finally managed to make it back to her seat, Piper was sitting in her seat chatting with Percy who seemed to be grateful for the distraction. They caught her coming back, and Piper flashed her a subtle thumbs up before moving back a row to her own seat.

Taking her seat next to Percy again, he seemed a little less tense finally, at least until they hit a patch of turbulence that made Percy jump.

“We are hitting a small patch of turbulence, everyone please return to your seats and buckle yourself in.”

“Oh my God.” Percy complained, grabbing her hand again.

Annabeth bit back a smile, amused that her partner was so flustered over a common event. Meanwhile he would be fearless and laughing when charging monsters that wanted nothing more than to rip him to pieces.

Eventually Percy’s nightmare ended and the plane landed. The second they managed to get out of the airport, Percy was laughing loudly, throwing his hands up. 

“Let’s do this! Let’s kick this monster’s ass!” Hazel just hung back a few steps. “He certainly changed.”

Rolling her eyes, Annabeth shrugged. “I think he’s just happy to be on solid ground again. I’m glad though.” She confessed, a warm smile on her face at how happy he looked.

Noticing it had gone quiet, she glanced over to see Piper and Hazel both looking at her with a knowing smile.

“She’s so cute when it comes to Percy.” Piper offered.

“Indeed.” Hazel agreed.

Scoffing, she pushed ahead of them and ignored their giggles and her own burning cheeks as she caught up to Percy and started to go over the game plan with him.

"Okay, so we'll check into the hotel and then we'll go hunt him. He's mostly active at night so it'll be hard to track him down before then. We need to be ready, I haven't seen chiron act that serious in ages." 

Percy's gleeful smile faltered as his expression became serious. "Yeah, we need to be careful." 

They glanced at each other, both looking determined to keep the other safe. Before either of them could really say anything sappy, Leo launched forward and through his arms over both of their shoulders. "We'll be fine. It's nowhere near home so we can just let loose and not worry about damages." He teased with a snicker, until a hand gently hit the back of his head.

"Just because we wouldn't get in trouble doesn't mean that others wouldn't be inconvenienced." Calypso warned.

Leo just shrugged and withdrew his arms and walked forward. "He's out in the woods last I heard. Just some trees around. I promise not to start a forest fire." He said, giving a scouts salute.

The group continued to bicker and laugh as they made their way to the hotel and checked in.

After they swarmed a local cafe and ate their fill, the sun was finally setting and they all moved towards the outskirts of town. Now in their proper battle attire, the mood of the group was different from before.

Annabeth lead the group with Percy at her side, Jason and Piper were in the middle with Leo and Calypso while Frank and Hazel brought up the rear.

"Where's Ashe when you need her and her eagle eyes." Piper muttered, glancing around in the darkening forest. 

"Let me try. Percy." Annabeth said and held his hand.

"Soul resonance." Closing her eyes, Annabeth let her senses expand outwards. She could detect the wavelengths of her friends, a few small forest critters, and as she strained herself to reach the edges of her range she detected something… horrible. Her eyes snapped opened. "Northwest, about a mile!" 

Instantly the group took off into a run. It was game time.

As they closed the distance, they heard a loud roar and birds fluttered out of the nearby trees into the air.

As they broke into a clearing they saw what reminded her of a lumberjack. It was a large creature, resembling something that had once been a man but fur sprouted from him. There were tattered remains of flannel hanging around him and a massive woodcutter's axe was gripped in one hand, stained by what she could only assume was blood.

It turned to them, glowing red eyes as it let out another roar and tossed something towards them that it had had gripped in its hand. It crashed to the ground a few feet in front of them. With a gasp, Annabeth realized it had been a moose. It had looked like a fox in its hand, the creature was massive in the distance.

"Percy…" she started, reaching out her hand.

Percy took it again, before his whole form glowed. His weight shifted and a moment later she was left holding a large bronze sword. Swinging it a few times, his familiar weight was a comfort. Their wavelengths started to sync up as she felt her body grow light. They could do this.

"Get ready!" She called out.

Next to her Jason glowed before she formed into a large bronze spear. He appeared in Piper's hand, who spun him rapidly around her body a few times, the air crackling and making the air on the back of her neck stand up. 

Leo grinned and struck a pose before he started glowing as well. The glow wrapped itself around 

Calypso's arm as he formed into a mechanical, bicep length arm brace. Flames flickered up and down her arm as she flexed her fingers and arm.

Finally Hazel and Frank shared a smile as she glowed. A moment later she reformed into a beautiful Onyx bow as Frank opened his quiver.

Annabeth stepped forward, but the massive axe flew through the air, barely giving her time to duck before it impaled itself into the tree behind her, cleaving it in two. Barely able to keep her balance, she sprinted forward while it's weapon was away. What she failed to see in the dark was the chain hanging low that suddenly pulled taut as the axe came flying back from behind. 

"Annabeth!" Calypso called out as she leapt forward. Her arm glowed bright as she brought down a massive punch into the axe, spiking it into the ground a few feet behind Annabeth. 

"Thanks!" She called as she continued to rush forward while the beast tried to yank the axe free.

As Annabeth leaped up, it raised back both its fists in attack. Just then two arrows impaled themselves into the neck of the creature. It flinched enough for Annabeth to leave a slice down it's chest. Jumping back, Annabeth was horrified to see the wound was shallow. Just how tough was it?

It ripped the arrows out, snapping them in its massive palm, before it swept out with an arm and knocked Annabeth backwards.

"Annabeth!" Percy screamed but she scrambled to her feet. "I'm fine!"

It reaches forward as if it to grab her. 

The air felt charged and a moment later a spear impaled itself into its chest. It roared again as electricity arked out of the spear and through the beast. Piper launched after it, grabbing it and spinning around it once before kicking off it and flipping backwards gracefully and landing next to Annabeth.

"This thing is tough."

"You're telling me." Annabeth grumbled. A few more arrows shot through the air but they harmlessly stuck into the back of it's massive arm.

"Buy me a minute." Piper called as she sprinted to a nearby tree, hopping up and starting to climb the branches.

Annabeth dashed forward. "Caly! Right!" 

Annabeth rolled left as she slid under another swing and sliced upwards with Percy, leaving another all-too-shallow cut on its arm. Stepping forward and swinging with both hands, she managed to leave a gash on the side of it's leg and make it stumble.

Just then Calypso appeared from the right, another fiery punch connected to the side of it's head and sending it crashing to the ground.

"River! 100 yards to the west!"

Annabeth glanced back to Frank and Calypso, then back to Piper at the top of the tree. The beast was dangerous. They needed Annabeth's full strength to bring this thing down, which meant getting Percy to water.

"We can ma-" Annabeth's side exploded in pain as she rocketed across the field, the beast having swiped at her from the ground. She bounced once, gasping pain before sliding into a tree. Her vision was blurry and she struggled to get back air into her lungs. She was vaguely aware of Calypso and Frank launching an assault to distract it. It yanked on the chain again, tripping Calypso as the axe flew back to it. Annabeth struggled to her feet as she saw the beast launch the axe at her. She manages to dive out of the way, but it once again knocked the wind out of her. Percy was yelling at her to keep moving again, but her body was still hurting. She saw the chain resting over her get pulled taut. She realized what was about to happen but her knee gave out momentarily. She tried to raise Percy but knew she didn't have the strength to block the axe.

It flew towards her, and she braced herself. What she didn't expect was for a glow to appear and Percy to be next to her and tackling her down to knock her out of the way.

"Percy!" The scream tore from her throat. His body slumped over hers. She forced herself to sit up, and held Percy. His back was torn and blood was starting to leak out from it.

"He's hurt!" She called out.

The beast raised the axe again as if to throw it, but Calypso appeared, her whole form blazing. 

Her fist connected with the ace, sending it flying to the side out of it's grip. Just then they heard Frank and Hazel yell out in soul resonance, as a massive onyx arrow shot across the field. It pierced the chain, snapping it in half as it fell limp.

"Percy, can you change?"

Percy forced a smile to his face and nodded, changing into his sword form as Annabeth took off running. "Let's go!"

Her group followed behind her as she made her way towards the river as fast as she could. Water always strengthened Percy. His wavelength was unique to it, one of the things that had interested her about him first.

The beast roared and was following after them as trees crashed in the distance.

Mercifully, before long they heard the river and saw it through the trees. A tree sailed through the woods, but was slowed down and stopped by others.

Sliding into the river, Annabeth stabbed the sword into the river. She immediately felt his wavelength strengthen and spike.

"Get him in here!" She called out after a moment, as she focused on keeping her wavelength in sync with Percy's.

The beast came crashing out of the woods, swiping at Piper who narrowly flipped out of the way. Another massive onyx arrow collided into the beast's back, piercing into it as it stumbled towards the water.

"Let's do this Leo!" Calypso called out as Annabeth felt the temperature of the area spike upwards. "Soul Resonance!" Her arm glowed as it spread across her back and down her other arm. Slamming her fists together, flames erupted around her. She jumped up, and in a superman punch she punched the end of the arrow with a titanic blow, as the arrow lurched forward and pierced through the chest of beast as it stumbled forward and crashed into the water. 

"Percy! Now!" His response was pained, but powerful.

"Soul Resonance!"

Their wavelength spread out into the water as it vegan to swirl around the beast, faster and rougher as it began to tear at him and lock him in place. She breathed heavily as she focused on keeping control of so much water and fighting the struggling beast.

The final chorus was as Piper yelled out as well.

"Soul Resonance!" 

Jason's form grew as she stabbed downwards with him, into the top of the beast.

Annabeth hopped out of the water as a bolt of electricity struck from the sky to the spear, hitting it and arcing through the beast and water.

With out last pained gurgle, it roared before its form darkened and it exploded into a glowing red soul.

They all gathered on the shore, exhausted and out of breath.

Percy leaned against the Annabeth, tired. She checked his back, but the wound had already closed thankfully.

Piper walked over and handed Percy the soul. He looked at her, then at the others. "But…" 

Piper grinned. "You earned it this time. Besides, with this…" 

Percy saw the rest nod before he finally ate it.

"We're at ninety nine now."

Annabetb grinned at his partner. After all these years, they were finally almost there. She had almost made him into a death scythe.

They all just laughed and started heading back. Percy leaned on her a bit more, but she wasn't complaining. "You alright?"

"Yeah, just starving."

She grinned and hugged his side. "Let's get you some Pizza."

I know I said I was on hiatus but I really wanted to get this posted! I had a lot of fun writing this one shot. I really need to rewatch Soul Eater soon!

[radioactive-synth]

I’m curious, did Vaughn fall for Nick or Hancock first? or was he immediately taken with both of them? They have such a cute dynamic I love it

havent expected this kind of ask, im tryin to answer in best way, thank you @dovahqun !

per short, Vaughn didnt actually realised he fallen for them, but it was so obvious for others in Sanctuary, especially that they also started to live together in his house?

per long: (under read more, its an essay, forgive me)

first impressions werent the best with Nick, given that Vaughn was still angry and thirsty for revenge, but Nick still believed he is actually a good person, he just needs some guidance. after Nick saved his life in Glowing Sea, Vaughn realised that he must do a change, which what Nick all needed to hear, so he finally took his General role.

Nick stayed with Vaughn for like 3 weeks, watching him how he tries to earn the people’s trust and changed in a better person, but then he went back to his detective work, and not seeing Vaughn for weeks (which in that time Vaughn and Debbie joined the BOS and Danse joined them in Sanctuary)

but a few weeks later, Vaughn got hurt badly during a solo mission (was knocked out and tied and had his mouth cut by a raider) and felt so shocked by that, plus all the thoughts and feelings he had just crashed into his head, and had a bad relapse, being so depressed he basically needed help to do simple things. Debbie used Preston’s radio to contact Nick and get to Sanctuary, thinking that he was the one to deal with Vaughn in a bad time, maybe he could do it again.

Nick had a lot of patience with Vaughn, feeling so sorry how he felt, and even during a night when Vaughn had a nightmare, Nick relunctantly accepted his asking for sleeping with him. since then, they sleep together, as Vaughn really can get a better sleep for the first time since he is out of Vault, and Nick think it feels nice. do i need to mention that Vaughn got high once cause of painkillers and kissed Nick and none talked about it but thought about it a lot.

since then, Nick started to get more often in Sanctuary, their relationship got stronger in that time. they both have a lot of common and just enjoy each other’s company.

with Hancock, neither the first impression was so fine, and they didnt seen each other for a long time, only Hancock knew about the vault dweller from others. second time when they met, it was when Vaughn and the Minutemen took the Castle, and he offered to go in Goodneighbor to buy parts for the radio, so he took Dogmeat and went there, then heard that Bobbi No Nose can offer what he needs, so he agreed to help her out. Now, i changed the canon here too, as i know Vaughn wont accept to break into DC’s strongroom, as he knew that 1. Nick and Piper would hate to hear that and 2. how its like to hear that the General of Minutemen broke into the strongroom of DC? so i think Bobbi says she knew about a pre war bunker that has untouched supplies, so the event goes, then Vaughn basically gets scared seeing Fahrenheit, and even more hearing that its Hancock’s warehouse. he immediatly turned against Bobbi and told her to go. after that, Fahrenheit dragged Vaughn to Goodneighbor to go talk and explain to Hancock about this. Hancock wasnt even mad about this, he appreciated the sincerity, and made fun on how him and the dog stains his carpets with the mud and blood into his clothes and the dog’s fur. after talking, Hancock explains that he should not feel comfortable in his position and should go out, and Vaughn offered him the chance to help him in his Minutemen job.

they also bonded fast, having same bad humor, same sense of justice and Vaughn really loves Hancock’s spirit of adventure. he also gave Hancock a newly renovated home in Sanctuary, which later he shared with MacCready.

a while later, weeks?? one night, Hancock gets out the house cause he cant sleep, and sees Vaughn on the steps of his own house, and goes to talk with him. after a while, Vaughn stated that he cant sleep well cause Nick isnt with him, and Hancock said more in joke that he could be his cuddle buddy, but didnt expected to get a positive answer so....they just slept together. both had a better rest. when Nick was in Sanctuary, Vaughn just thought that they could just try to sleep together, which the other two thought its a bit crowded but didnt refused. a while later, Vaughn started to have sexual relationship with Hancock, and with Nick he occasionally make out.

over the months, between Minutemen work, and dealing with other duties for BOS and RR, and even Institute, Vaughn became overstressed about everything, and Nick and Hancock helped him out, by supporting him, taking decisions in his name for Minutemen or just being there for him. after the battle of Bunker Hill, when he helped the Institute (and didnt said anything to anyone, not even them two), he was banished from RR as an agent recognized him and Desdemona thought of him as a traitor, despite that Deacon and Debbie tried to explain his reasons. being so stressed, he even snapped at a scientist and nearly strangled them, earning him banishment from Institute and Shaun’s threat that he will kill him if he ever gets in the Institute’s way, and other hurtful things he said.

Vaughn fell in depression as he thought he failed everyone, even that Nick and Hancock tried to explain isnt his fault, he tried his best, but still not much result.

2 weeks later, the Sanctuary was attacked by the Institute, and even if a few ended up with just a few scratches, Vaughn was furious about, and he declared he must destroy the Institute, as other settlements are now in danger.

for getting in the Institute, there must be accessed in the sewers, which Nick and Hancock offered, as they said they dont need much air and wont be affected by the rads in the water. Vaughn was hesitating, but he had no other choice but to let them there. while he and some other companions and a few elite Minutemen waited, he couldnt stop thinkin of worst cases, but when they got in Institute, he was so relieved to see them ok and held them in his arms, forgetting for a few seconds for what they were there. they also needed to drag him from Shaun, as Vaughn tried to reason with him, but all he got back was just more insults and reasons how disappointed he was in his father, and wished he never had to release him from the Vault.

after the Institute, Vaughn basically needed days to sleep, as he was so exhausted, and only woke up to eat and go to bathroom, but he needed like 3 days of resting.

but then on 4th morning, he could hear laughter of the kid and the other two, so he got up and seen a image he never thought he will see: Nick and Hancock on the couch, with Oliver onto Nick’s lap, playing a board game with Codsworth, while Dogmeat and Hera watched them.while Vaughn was resting, they two took care of Oliver, already acting like dads to him.

and now, to get to your question (if you got reading this so far ily) and answer it: it felt in that moment that he really loves them so much, and its clear he cant choose between them, as both were so perfect for him. but when he confessed, you might ask?

Oliver asked his dad if he can call the other two ‘dads’, and also asked if he should call them differently, like Hancock is ‘papa’ and Nick ‘pops’ and Vaughn finally realised that he should talk with them about their relationship. he was too busy with everything, and forgot about his own self.

when he asked them if its ok to be lovers and to be together a family, they answered that they are already a family, and its kinda obvious their relationship is closer. also Nick and Hancock agreed that they both love Vaughn, he loves them equally, there is no reason to be jealous, and both can have a good life together as a family.
