In a car
Flippy: Drive faster, Sneaky, the bleeding is getting worse!
Sneaky: I'm trying, okay? I get nervous when people yell at me while I'm driving.
Flippy: Oh my fault, I'll just die in silence, shall I!?
Sneaky: *scoffs* Flippy, you're always so dramatic.
Mouse: Yeah calm down, Flippy, you're not dying. You're just losing large amounts of blood.
Flippy: ... Yeah that happens to be a leading cause of death!
Sneaky: No, you're thinking of cancer
Mouse: I thought heart disease was the number one cause of death?
Flippy: Yes, but without blood, my heart will have nothing to pump and will therefore get bored and die!
Sneaky: Ok, just try not to get blood on the seat.
Mouse: Are you guys sure this is the right way to the hospital?
Sneaky: I'm pretty sure.
Flippy: What do you mean you're pretty sure??
Sneaky: I think it's that... By that place we ate at the other day? What was it...
Mouse: Oh those fries were DELICIOUS
Sneaky: Oh my gosh, seriously, they were so good-
Flippy: THIS IS MY ARM!! *holds up arm* NOTICE HOW I AM ABLE TO HOLD IT AN ENTIRE ARM'S LENGTH AWAY FROM MY BODY!! THIS IS AN UNDESIRABLE QUALITY!! I INSIST YOU FOCUS ON FINDING ME MEDICAL CARE!!
Sneaky: *putting on mascara*
Flippy: …what are you doing!?
Sneaky: I have a date after this…. Actually can one of you grab the wheel?
Flippy: … *looks at Mouse* … *looks at Sneaky* … *grabs the wheel with his dismembered hand*
Sneaky: Thanks. *pulls out lipstick and steps on the break gently*
Mouse: Hey, how come we're slowing down?
Sneaky: Some ducks are crossing the road. … *looks at a flabbergasted Flippy* Well what else was I supposed to do?
Flippy: Kill them!!!
Sneaky: That's terrible…!
Flippy: No!! This *holds up arm* is terrible!!
Sneaky: … I'm not killing those ducks, Flippy.
Mouse: Yeah they are adorable.
Flippy: Get me to a hospital!! *waves dismembered arm between them*
Sneaky: *gags* Ugh ugh…
Mouse: Flippy, your arm is REALLY cold…
Flippy: …… is it, Mouse?? I'm no doctor but I would venture to guess that's probably indicative of some kind of severe trauma!
Mouse: *shrugs* I don't know, sometimes people just have cold hands all the time *eyes Sneaky*
Sneaky: Should I turn the heater on?
Mouse: Oh! Yeah!
Flippy, dejected: *sighs* Guys if I don't make it, I just want you both to know… that I hate you.
Mouse: Flippy quit being so dramatic, look, the ducks are crossing the road?
Flippy: *flops over in the backseat, dead*
Sneaky: See? And nothing had to die.
Mouse: … *looks at Flippy with confusion*
Sneaky: Oh look, the place with the fries! You think we have time?
Mouse: YES.
Sneaky: Nice.

[2:24 PM] + hero/villain au + "are you happy?"
part 1 part 2 part 3 part 4 part 5 part 6 part 7 part 8 part 9
masterlist
a/n: 4k words, no one asked for this at all but I read over this fic and felt it needed something more definitive i guess? so here is a more conclusive ending to this fic!!
-
there is an irony to your new living arrangements, you think. yeosang, san and yourself sharing a three bedroom apartment.
you'd been arrested after wooyoung, handcuffs suppressing your powers wrapped around your wrists and a blindfold over your eyes, and after weeks sitting in a prison cell alone awaiting your fate, you'd been called into court. hongjoong sat in the witness stand, dressed in a suit, his hair a different color and an eyepatch over one eye.
you could not get used to how different he looked. how much older he was. the soft lines in his face were harder, and his eyes were ancient, as if he'd seen too much, and you did not dare ask anyone how much time had passed. you hadn't gotten the chance, anyway, since you'd been locked up the entire time.
hongjoong explained to the court that you'd been brainwashed. the serum. the research from the labs. the gaps in your memories. brain scans of how the serum affected you. the doctors had already told you how it affected your hippocampus and how they weren't sure how your short term memory would be affected. he hadn't looked at you the entire time he spoke. you hadn't had the chance to speak with him either.
the judge and jury ruled that you would be on house arrest for fifteen months, and you would need to do community service afterwards. you were banned from using your powers for two years.
you didn't think that was punishment enough, really, but you did not say anything. there would be enough outcry on the internet anyway, after the trial results were released.
that night, the government officials handling your case drove you up to an apartment building at the edge of town, and hongjoong did not look at you then either.
you'd had weeks to think about the aftermath of wooyoung surrendering. you'd let the armed officers cuff you, and only yunho stayed with you during it. you'd sat on the ground, with your hands behind your back, a flimsy piece of metal wrapped around your wrists, and hongjoong had appeared before you, a bloody scar running over his eye, and his chest heaving, and he crouched in front of you that day and held you tight. you were taken into government custody with his blood on your shirt, mixing with wooyoung's.
while in captivity and isolation, you knew you'd done too many despicable things, serum or no serum, to not be punished. even then, wooyoung was right.
that night, you stood in front of a red apartment door, and the government officials reminded you once more of the court's stipulations before they left you with hongjoong. you were given a bracelet on each wrist, so tight it made the skin around the bracelets tender, that rendered your powers completely useless. for the first time in your life, you did not have enhanced strength.
hongjoong looked at you then, for the first time in weeks, and you asked then, "how long has it been?"
"seven years," he said, his voice soft, his hard expression crumbling into something sad. his good eye flickered over your face.
"oh." you could not believe you were seven years older and you missed all those years. not only did wooyoung steal your autonomy, but he also stole years from you. you wanted to hate him for it, a part of you did. a part of you will never, though, and that's the worst part.
hongjoong held out his arms, and you'd blinked at him, and he said, "i'm sorry we couldn't figure out a way to get you out sooner. i told you you wouldn't have to do it alone again, but you did."
you shook your head, "that isn't your fault."
hongjoong let out a small laugh, shaking his head, his arms falling to his side.
you stepped into his limp embrace anyway. you hadn't had anyone hold you since yunho, and you needed it, despite everything.
he seemed surprised, but he quickly wrapped his arms around you, and he said, "i'm sorry."
you just shook your head, and hongjoong held you for a long moment before turning to the door.
when he opened the door to the apartment, yeosang and san were curled on the couch. they'd turned off the news as soon as they realized you'd walked in, but you'd still caught a glimpse of your face walking out of the courtroom.
"we thought it best you stay with some of us during your house arrest," hongjoong said.
yeosang had a burn across his face, a puckered scar that marred his pretty face, his dark hair pulled back from his face in a messy bun. he had scars on his arms, too, that ran all the way up. it wasn't there before. san's hair was short, and his eyes were harder as he looked at you. wary. they both looked so different from how you remembered them, especially when all you've seen of them these past few years were the memories in your head that kept you sane in the serum's liminal space.
you'd wondered briefly why san and yeosang had been chosen, but before you could ask, san explained, "you can't punch me easily and yeosang can...yeosang understands. you've also hurt us less than mingi or yunho or -"
he cut himself off, and his gaze flickered to hongjoong. you'd frowned. hongjoong sighed, but he just pat your back, and said, "i'm down two floors. you can't leave the building, but you can visit if you'd like."
then hongjoong left, disappearing into thin air.
the irony of it was not lost on either of you. three of the people who loved wooyoung most, learning to cope in a tiny three bedroom apartment together. it was not lost on you, when you'd be in the kitchen reaching for a wooden spoon or a plate or a pan or if you stretched your arms over your head while watching television, and san would flinch slightly at your movements. it was not lost on yeosang when he'd open his mouth to say something, raising his voice slightly, and you'd close your eyes, fear running up your spine. he swore he wouldn't use his powers on any of you again, but he made the same promise back then. that was the only thought that ran through your head at those times. it was not lost on either of them when you'd try to open a jar or lift something heavy, and you couldn't do it because of the damned bracelets, and you'd hide in your room for hours trying to ignore the way the thought of being so vulnerable reminded you of when wooyoung ordered yeosang to keep your hands in place, or the fact that all your life you were supposed to be strong and that guaranteed you at least a modicum of safety. if san and yeosang noticed your red eyes or the tear streaks the next morning while you maneuvered around each other in the small kitchen, neither said a thing. none of you ever mentioned the small moments of fear or sadness you'd noticed. you'd figured it was because things have changed between you all. at least between yourself and them.
it was worse when mingi or yunho would visit, and they'd flinch at your movements too. or hesitate to touch you. or treat you as if you were this fragile, weak thing they should handle with care.
it didn't help that you were stuck in the apartment building. there were only so many times you could go to the small apartment gym before you lost your mind. yeosang and san had a job, and you wanted to help with rebuilding as well, but you couldn't leave. the bracelets would electrocute you, hongjoong had said once, and you'd stared in horror as hongjoong shrugged and patted your shoulder gently. you couldn't even visit hongjoong because he was barely home in his apartment. the other patrons of the building avoided you completely, and you couldn't blame them for it.
you only knew a bit of what happened to jongho and seonghwa. they were in prison apparently, but their sentences were much shorter than wooyoung's due to a plea deal worked out when seonghwa had decided to spy for hongjoong, feeding information back to them and even helping yeosang and a few others escape. a light sentence for jongho was a part of seonghwa's plea deal.
you'd avoided the news as often as you could, and san and yeosang always changed the channel. it was strange, trying to figure out how to navigate living again alongside san and yeosang. the three of you didn't always get along. especially san and you, but that had always been your dynamic, even when you first joined the team. you would be an idiot to think everything would be normal between you three. the tiptoeing and awkward silences were enough of a testament to that. you noticed often that san's bed would be untouched, the mornings you woke up early to get some quiet time to yourself, and the door to yeosang's bedroom would be shut, soft music drifting out from beneath the door. perhaps before everything, you would have felt comfortable teasing them for it. now, you weren't sure where your dynamics stood, and what you could and could not tease them about. it made you sad.
the tension did not entirely dissipate for a while. not until one evening where you'd flipped through numerous channels, landing briefly on a news channel. your phone buzzed, san's name lighting up.
i'm bringing pizza home, by the way. with y/n's favorite toppings.
he'd been doing that more often lately, and you wondered often why. he never really asked what you wanted for dinner the times he brought anything home, but the past week he'd gone out of his way to bring home your favorites. even yeosang brought you desserts from various bakeries without you having to ask.
yeosang responded with a cute smiley emoji and a, can't wait! i'll be home in a bit too
you'd smiled at the previews, turning to change the channel, when you'd realized what the broadcast was about.
the eighth anniversary of the siege of seoul. the footage was devastating. you'd stared in horror as you saw wooyoung rise from the ashes, like a phoenix. as you saw yourself tearing through buildings. cctvs devolved into static. the footage was blurry. but it was you. you'd done that. and afterwards, there was a memorial. seven hundred and sixty two died civilians died that day.
"y/n."
you'd jumped at the voice, the remote falling from your hands. it clattered on the floor, and the sound of it made you jump again.
you craned your neck to look behind you in the direction of the voice, and san was placing the pizza on the kitchen bar counter as his gaze flickered between you and the television. yeosang was right behind him.
you'd blinked at them both.
your chest felt tight, and your vision blurred, but you said, "is this why you're being nice?"
san blinked rapidly, taken aback. he said, "what do you mean?"
"for the past week," your voice sounded tight, pitched, even to your own ears, "you've both been so much nicer. is this why? is it because...i did that?"
you didn't know why you were asking. you did do that. even if you didn't remember. even if you were brainwashed. you killed those people. you killed a lot of people.
"because i don't remember it," you gestured at the television still broadcasting the memorial, and your hands shook as you said, "i don't remember anything. and so...so if you're trying to make me feel better i don't think i deserve it."
"don't say that," yeosang said, tone soft, and brows furrowed.
"i killed people, and i don't remember it." your voice cracked then, and you couldn't help the way your eyes stung. you said, "what kind of horrible person can't remember that?"
"none of it was your fault," san's voice was firm, even as he approached you, as he crouched in front of you on the couch and turned off the television.
"then why does it feel like it is?" you blinked back the tears, "i don't know where i stand anymore with any of you. i don't even know what fucking year it is. but i know that that was me, and i did unimaginable things. to innocent people. to you and yun-yunho and mingi and joong, and i got off with a slap to the wrist. i told wo - i told him i hoped he'd die with the guilt, but i think i'm going to die with it first."
"i was the one that took you, y/n. i was the one who started all this," yeosang's voice rang through the apartment, a soft thing that filled you up, up, up. you looked to him, and the guilt in his expression made the tears spill down your cheek. "i've been distant because of it, but i didn't think you'd notice...or care. i just...i'm sorry, y/n."
he trailed off, and you shook your head as you said, "you didn't know how this would turn out."
"why do you do that?" san asked, even as he placed a hand on your cheek and wiped at your tears, "why do you forgive him so easily when you won't even forgive yourself?"
you'd blinked, frowning, "do you want me to be mad at yeosang?"
"i want you to stop crying," san wiped away all your tears before pressing his palms to your cheeks. "most importantly, i want you to stop tiptoeing around us."
"i'm not the only one. why do you flinch around me then?" your voice is louder as you frown at san.
"you've beat the shit out of us for years. i'm getting used to the peace. forgive me if a month hasn't fixed it." he'd rolled his eyes, "still doesn't mean i'm scared of you."
you let out a small laugh at the indignant tone, at the way san still held your face between his palms. his smile turned soft as he observed you.
you glanced sideways at yeosang, "i'm not scared of you either, yeo. i just...didn't know if you hated me."
"i don't hate you," yeosang said, gently. you held out a hand anyway, gesturing for him to take it. he relented after a moment, letting you squeeze his hand.
it was quiet for a long, long moment, before san murmured, "he really fucked us up, didn't he?"
san didn't have to say his name for you to know who he was talking about. san dropped his hands from your cheeks as he sat across from you on the couch. yeosang leaned over the back, leaning his chin against his hands. you dropped your hands to your lap. yeosang hummed, but his brows were furrowed, his expression troubled.
you observed the puckered burn scar on yeosang's face as you wiped your face of your tears.
you asked, "what's happened to him?"
you didn't want to ask, but you wanted to know. you would always want to know.
"death sentence, and solitary confinement in a maximum security containment center until then," san said, quietly. "we all agreed he should live with the guilt. he's technically on death row, but he'll probably die of old age before the state carries through with it."
you watched san's eyes glisten as he spoke.
"do you think he feels guilty at all?"
san only shrugged, fiddling with his fingers in his lap.
yeosang said, "i think he does. he always did."
"you think so?" you asked, reaching up to touch the scar on yeosang's face, the skin rough under your touch. you dropped your hand as you said, "even after this."
"he cried after," yeosang murmured, his eyes faraway. "isn't that fucked up? he cried, and he asked me if i wanted to leave that night."
yeosang laughed, but it sounded hollow.
he said, "you were there."
you'd nodded, but your heart lodged in your throat. you said, "i think i was always there."
"you were," san said quietly. "he never let you leave his side. he let yeosang leave, but he...he never let you leave."
you took that in. the few times you'd woken up, it was beside him. of course it was. of course he didn't. san reached over and thread his fingers through yeosang's limp hand, his thumb drawing circles along the back of yeosang's hand.
yeosang asked after a moment, "do you think we'll be okay?"
"we can try." you murmured. "we have to try."
san nodded and nodded, and yeosang brought the box of pizza and a bottle of wine to the table, changing the channel on the television without another word.
~.~.~.~.~
years later, too many years to count, you find yourself standing on the other side of the glass.
wooyoung sits in a chair in a white room, every wall made of glass. his hair is overgrown, and his tanned skin paler than usual without the sun. he has the same demeanor as he always does, an easy nonchalant façade that you don't think will ever go away.
your phone buzzes in your pocket, no doubt a text from yunho or mingi or hongjoong.
they said they'd be waiting outside. yunho, mingi, and hongjoong agreed to pick you up for dinner afterwards. yeosang, san, seonghwa, and jongho would meet you both there.
the first time you met seonghwa again, he'd crumbled to the ground, holding your hand in his cold hands, and he repeated apologies like he was praying. jongho cried. it took a while, as it did with everyone else, to rebuild what you had. even then, you didn't think it was entirely there. it was certainly different.
his voice is full of static.
"i didn't think you'd visit," wooyoung says, and his voice is rough from disuse.
hearing him talk, seeing him, it made your heart feel heavy. the anger you felt towards him, every time you couldn't remember something that you could have before he put the serum in you, every time you saw the scars over your heart, every time you were reminded of what you did for him, every time yunho or mingi or san or hongjoong flinched, every time you went to the doctors to check if the serum was fully out of your system and the trigger words no longer worked, returned tenfold as you looked at him. you thought you'd come to terms with it. you thought you were okay enough for this. maybe you were wrong.
you said, "i didn't want to."
"then why are you here?"
"i wanted to ask you something," you say, wooyoung's gaze flickering over you.
wooyoung smiles. it reminds you of Before. you shake that thought from your head.
you say, "do you regret it?"
wooyoung's eyes flickers between yours. his voice is a soft, crackly thing, "sometimes."
you stare at his admission.
wooyoung laughs, "i've had a lot of time to think. if there's one thing i've come to terms with, it's that i ruin everything i love."
"you do," you say, thinking of yourself, and san and yeosang and hongjoong and yunho and mingi, even jongho and seonghwa.
a beat of silence, before wooyoung says, "can i ask you something?"
the guard knocks on the door, signaling that your visit is almost over.
you nod.
he asks, "are you happy?"
wooyoung's eyes are soft, sad, and you find that the part of you that will always love him, despite everything, curls in on itself. however, the part of you that is always angry, that despises him for admitting his feelings for you only to take seven years from you while you forcing you to do the most despicable things, wants to scream at him. wants to hurt him. wishes the glass wasn't there so you could kill him the way you'd wanted to years ago. you will always resent him for his choices. he knows that. he nods as if he can hear your thoughts.
you say, "happier than i've ever been."
he nods, but his eyes are a glassy thing. the guilt in his expression is clear then, and you find it satisfying more than anything.
"and everyone else?"
you want to say, the happiest they've ever been.
but you choke. you can't say it. you can hurt him using yourself, but using your friends? you can't do it, despite everything.
they weren't the happiest they've ever been without wooyoung. you've seen them try to move on with the heavy burden of jung wooyoung on their shoulders. he would always remain a hole in their hearts, and in their groups, in their group chats and dinners and conversations. in fact, when you told hongjoong you wanted to visit, he hadn't argued, only looked as if he would cry - something you've never seen from him in all the years you've known him.
"why did you do it? was it really worth losing everything? was..." you frown, "was losing us worth it?"
wooyoung was always one to stand by his resolutions, but perhaps years alone has changed him more than any of you could have.
he murmurs, "i have to believe it was."
the guard knocks on the door, opening it. the creaking hinges echo in the room.
"goodbye, wooyoung," you say, knowing damn well you don't think you'll ever return.
wooyoung smiles as if he can tell.
"goodbye," he says.

PJO Mortal AU (Solangelo-centric)
 The Olympia Family
(AKA the family with so much chaos and drama, they would have made an even more popular reality TV show than Keeping Up with the Kardashians)
Thalia Grace - 24
An ambassador of the Artemis Foundation
Badass
Won't hesitate to throw hands at anyone who messes with her family.
Very protective of her little brother and cousins.
Not afraid to speak her mind and fight for what she thinks is right.
Has a kind of love-hate relationship with her stepmother Hera. While Thalia respects and acknowledges Hera as her stepmother, she is a free spirit, and hates being chained down by the old-fashioned rules Hera imposes.
Briefly dated Luke Castellan for 2 years, but broke up due to reasons. The break up was mutual and Luke still remains as one of Thalia's closest friends.
Deadly with a bow and arrow (she'd be hunting down hunters like they hunt animals for living if it weren't for the fact that murder is unfortunately illegal).
Jason Grace - 19
Sophomore at Uni (double majors in Management and Aerodynamic Engineering)
Flight school graduate
Heir to Jupiter Airlines (given that his father doesn't plan to retire anytime soon, Jason is considering becoming a pilot in the meantime)
Hera's favourite child since he actually follows her rules (He bends them slightly every now and then, but she doesn't need to know that).
Regular at the Manhattan Chess Club
Has an intense rivalry with his older cousin Percy that's been going on for like 10 years now... (his life goal is to beat Percy. They're currently at a stalemate of 3795 wins each.)
Very protective of Nico. He almost had an aneurysm when he heard that grumpy, little stay-away-or-I’ll-death-glare-you Nico had a boyfriend. A boyfriend.
Has a best friend Leo Valdez who is an engineer student with an eccentric personality and is a mischievous menace. His childhood friend, Reyna Avila Ramirez-Arellano, is an athlete in javelin-throwing and currently resides in her hometown in San Juan, Puerto Rico, but they still keep in touch. 
Dating Piper McLean, the 19-year-old founder of the Beautifully Imperfect Foundation
Zeus Olympia
CEO of Jupiter Airlines
Drama Queen TM
Favours Thalia more despite Jason being his heir and enables most of her rebellious antics, much to Hera's chagrin.
Can be rather childish and petty ("It's been 43 years, and I've long since given up on expecting him to change," Hades deadpanned.)
As the youngest child of the Olympia family and with his father on Death's doorstep, Zeus was given a lot of free reign, hence his playboy tendencies. He eventually did settle down with Hera Junos, the single daughter of one of the oldest families in Greece. Hera was fond of children but was unable to sire her own due to medical issues, which led to Zeus getting a mistress (with Hera's begrudged consent), Beryl Grace, the daughter of Hera's family chef. Beryl has always had a rather strange personality and an unhealthy obsession with alcohol. A few years after giving birth to Thalia and Jason Grace respectively, her liver gave way and she died before they could find a solution.
Hera Olympia (formerly Junos)
Zeus' wife
The kids call her ‘Aunt Ra’
Jason is her favourite child because he actually listens to her
Coming from both a high-class and old family, Hera was raised to be a perfect lady (a lady should not wear pants or speak out of turn etc. etc.) and has a rather old-fashioned way of thinking, enforcing strict rules in her household.
She still loves Thalia, but because the way Thalia acts goes against everything Hera was taught, her relationship with her stepdaughter is a bit strained. Hera now mostly lets Thalia do her own thing, but every now and then might still be a bit controlling. She's trying, okay?
Bianca di Angelo - 19
Sophomore at Uni (majors in Journalism and English Literature)
Works part-time at the Artemis Foundation
Generally quiet and shy, but has a tendency to fuss over small details.
Very responsible and possibly the only one with a brain cell among the cousins. (Proteus and Triton don’t even live in the same continent half of the time; Kym doesn't give a damn; Thesi is too nice to reprimand them; Ro‘s too busy fawning over her fiancé; Hero is more likely to fan the flames than quell them; Thalia, Jason, Percy and Nico are always either competing against each other or breaking the Internet with their antics again; Hazel is pretty innocent but has a slight vindictive streak so caution must be exercised; and Tyson and Estelle are innocent beans of sunshine that must be protected).
She can be bold when she wants to be, as well as reckless. 
Has her father's habit of gesturing with her hands while talking and when she is on edge.
Ace
Nico di Angelo - 17
High school Senior
Heir to Pluto Corp.
Resident Emo in the family (“I'm not emo!” “Your only-dark-clothing phase says otherwise.” “It's not a phase, Persephone!” “Like father, like son.”)
Stubborn AF
Can't deal with all his overprotective sisters and cousins
Currently pining over William Solace ("Shut up!")
Avid gamer, plays digital games, card games (his childhood and to-this-day favourite is Myth-o-magic, which is one of the reasons he approves of Hazel's boyfriend, Frank) and all games in general (he visits the arcade monthly to make sure he's still 1st place in every game there)
Has a tendency to hold grudges and gestures with his hands while talking or when on edge, a habit he shares with his father and older sister.
Plays the violin (Persephone had introduced him to it, and he'd taken a liking to it)
Hazel Olympia (formerly Levesque) - 14
High school Freshman
Aspiring artist (she’s won thirty different art competitions locally in the span of three years and placed silver last year in the Chelsea International Fine Art Competition under an anonymous name because she wanted to win by her own merit rather than rely on the Olympia name. Hades plans to surprise her by giving her own exhibition hall for her next birthday.)
Regular at the Manhattan Riding Club
Has a bit of a vindictive streak in her that was probably born out of spite due to her upbringing
Exudes a powerful aura of passive aggressiveness, but is also incredibly kind and magnanimous
Has the ability is summon, manipulate and detect precious minerals, as well as the ability to place curses on them. (This knowledge is confidential and hidden from the public)
Loves her family with all her heart, and literally no one is more protective of Nico than she is
She was the first but also last person to know about Nico's boyfriend (First because she goes to the same school and is not dense, thank you very much, but technically last because she was the last person that Nico officially told since Will is terrified of her for some reason, something about her being 'the FINAL BOSS'; this amuses Hazel to no end).
Has a very cute crush on Frank Zhang, a HS Junior who’s an archer and animal lover (it’s mutual, by the way).
Hades Olympia 
CEO of Pluto Corp., one of the largest companies in the mining industry.
#DONE with life and all the people in it, particularly his crazy family
Functions solely on his children, Persephone and caffeine, usually caffeine because the other two are often the cause of his high blood pressure
Broods a lot (”I don’t brood.” “Yes, you do.”)
Deadpan 200% of the time and takes no shit
Loves all his children equally and definitely does not have a favourite (it’s Hazel, in case you’re wondering) 
As the eldest son of the three brothers, Hades was betrothed and wed to his childhood best friend Persephone Terrafield by their fathers in an attempt at a business partnership (Spoiler Alert: It didn’t work out in end). Admittedly, Hades and Persephone did have a small infatuation with each other when they were younger, but it never grew into anything serious, and as they grew older he saw her as more of a sibling than a lover and vice versa. After the inevitable death of his father, Hades and Persephone divorced but literally nothing in their relationship changed since they’d never loved each other romantically in the first place. When Hades decided to court their mutual friend, Italian diplomat Maria di Angelo, Persephone supported both of them wholeheartedly. In the span of the seventeen years they were together, Maria gave Hades two beautiful children, Bianca and Nico. Unfortunately, Maria passed away after being on life support for two years in result of a plane crash when Nico was 6. 
In the two years when Maria was hospitalized, Hades was so desperate to find his beloved a cure that he sought out a witch doctor that was rumoured to be in New Orleans. Marie Levesque, the aforementioned witch, was a greedy, manipulative person with a deluded and unstable mind, who drugged Hades and essentially raped him because she thought his spawn would have the perfect blood for experimenting magic on. She used magic to wipe his memory of the previous night’s events and handed him an ‘antidote’ that was actually just water dyed a milky white. After ten years, Marie finally revealed to Hades a 12-year-old Hazel, who looked miserable, was suffering from malnutrition, wounds, burns etc. and had a supernatural ability which Marie proudly said she had bestowed to her via dark magic. Hades was absolutely mortified, revolted and a bunch of other things. He filed a lawsuit against Marie, charging her for rape, child neglect, child abuse and human experimentation, as well as taking permanent custody over Hazel Levesque (now Hazel Olympia). 
Persephone Terrafield
CEO of jewelry enterprise The Red Pomegranate which was a sub-branch of Pluto Corps. The enterprise has the highest production rate in the US. 
Self-designated matchmaker for Hades (Hades always tells her she should focus on her own love life first, but he’s just an ungrateful brat)
Current life goal is to fulfill Maria di Angelo’s dying wish: help Hades find love again. (Mission status: still at Square 1 because Hades has some trust issues after the Levesque Incident)
The kids all call her ‘Aunt Seph’, but she loves the children as though they were her own
She and Hades often joke that they would totally still be married if they didn’t see each other as siblings and platonic soulmates and she hadn’t had her sexual awakening of being lesbian.
She lives with Hades and the children as she finds it too much of a hassle to move into her own place, not to mention lonely (with the kids at school and doing club activities, someone needs to make sure Hades gets exposure to the sun anyway).
Persephone is the daughter of an unnamed businessman and Demeter Terrafield, an agricultural revolutionist and healthy-cereal-obssessed woman.
Her mother and Hades have this sort of weird rivalry going on whenever Demeter visits; Demeter hates Hades because he hates healthy cereal, and apparently anyone who hates healthy cereal isn’t good enough to be hanging around her daughter, so she always replaces all his coffee with decaf and puts the healthiest cereal she can find on his bedside table every morning; in retaliation, Hades will deliberately eat the most sugary sweets he can find in front of her and locks her out of their personal greenhouse. (The glass walls are made of the strongest glass he could find and the door is locked by multiple manual and digital locks.)
Hestia Olympia
CEO of WarmHearth Interior Design Agency (WHIDA)
Everyone's favourite person, indefinitely
Has the infinite patience of a goddess
Gentle, kind, very wise, gives great advice
The kids call her ‘Aunt Tia’ 
Often fondly exasperated by her younger brothers' antics (because no, just because they’re grown men now does not mean they are going to stop their childhood feuds since despite their protests, they are all petty AF), but once she snaps, they all line up like toy soldiers and behave nicely.
Knits a lot. Most of her carpets, quilts, bags, scarves etc. are handmade.
She looks relatively innocent, but don't be fooled. There's a hidden arsonist in her that is always ready to come out when she's angry.
Hestia has a 'I'm not mad, just extremely disappointed and upset' Mom Look that has sent people bawling their eyes out and begging for her forgiveness with just one glance
She is the oldest of the Olympia siblings, but as a child had a frail and weak body. Kronos wanted to get rid of her since she was 'useless and couldn't be wed off', but Rhea, their mother, begged and pleaded Kronos to let her live. For some unknown reason, Kronos complied.
Her brothers are all very protective of her
YOU DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, MAKE HER ANGRY

My Tumblebrutus Headcanons:
Tumblr media
He and his older brothers, Dionysus and Fleuryfling, narrowly escaped being euthanized at an animal shelter after hearing about the same thing happening to their parents. When they finally came to the Tribe, Asparagus and Skimbleshanks both offered to take the toms in, but Di and Fleury refused, insisting that the three of them could take care of themselves. Tumblebrutus always looked up to his brothers, but as he grew up, he realized how needlessly cruel they could sometimes be.  When they were eventually exiled from the Tribe after a “prank” that injured several cats, Tumble was devastated, but a part of him feared ending up the same way. So he decided that he’d try to set a good example for them in case they ever wanted to come back, acting more grown-up and respectful when he knows that other cats are counting on him.
Most of the time he’s very “I’m sixteen years old and I don’t need a governess”-style stubborn about it, but he does have huge soft spots for Asparagus, Skimble, and Jenyanydots. Maybe he’d never admit it, but he wishes they could be his parents.  And Munkustrap is the big brother he wishes he had and badly wants to impress.
Alonzo is another big brother figure to him—the two always find time to clown around and gossip about the goings on in the Junkyard, even coming up with their own funny choreography for the Jellicle Ball.  It’s also thanks to Alonzo that he’s friends with Cassandra, whom he thinks is impossibly cool.
Pouncival, Plato, Mistoffelees, Victoria, and Jemima are his very best friends—he even regards Pouncival as his little brother.  Whenever he’s with the first two, chaos can break out, but luckily Tumblebrutus holds custody of the one brain cell they share most of the time.  And he actually had crushes on the other two before finding out that Misto was more interested in Tugger and Mungojerrie and that Jemima was ace—both of which he took rather gracefully.
Misto helped him realize he was really a tom instead of a queen–he’d always felt wrong in the body he was born in, but he didn’t know how to change it until he talked to the magical cat.  Now thanks to some transformations and glamour spells, including one to change his scent, he feels a lot more like the cat he was meant to be.
Surprisingly enough, he gets along really well with the psychic twins.  Coricopat is more of a buddy and partner in crime, but he’s almost painfully polite to Tantomile and always treats her like a lady, even offering to dance with her whenever her brother or mate are occupied.
He’s always been a very sensitive and empathetic soul and generally more level-headed than the other younger toms, so he’s often the one the female kittens will go to if they need to vent their problems and can’t find any of their girlfriends.  He’s never bothered by it at all and in fact kind of likes that his friends trust him so much.
He learned how to dance from Skimbleshanks and is actually a better dancer than him these days.  And he never fails to milk all the humor out of the student surpassing the teacher that he possibly can.
As mature as he tries to be, he can still be rather cruel himself and prone to peer pressure, especially when he’s around Pouncival and Plato.  To his credit, Tumble’s always the first one to realize when their tricks have gone too far.
One of his best friends outside of the Junkyard is an older tom named Cyprian, whom he met when he accompanied Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer on a heist in the British Museum.  After the initial misunderstanding and a long talk with Old Deuteronomy, Cyprian decided to start visiting regularly, and Tumblebrutus and his friends love listening to his stories about the museum. (@bullseyegames​)
He once tailed his brothers after their exile to find out what they had been up to… and to his horror, he found out they were working for Macavity.  Since then, he’s thrown himself into learning how to fight and protect his Tribe just in case Macavity comes poking around and tries to use Di and Fleury as bargaining chips to win Tumble over.
He loves pirate stories and used to play Growltiger and Genghis all the time with Fleury (he often got stuck playing Genghis, but he didn’t mind—it was fun to sneak around and put on a scary voice).  Ever since learning the name of Growltiger’s legendary bosun, he insisted on that being his second More Particular name.
Most of the time he’ll sleep curled up in a ball, but every so often he’ll fall asleep in a very precarious place with his limbs all over the edge of the nearest flat surface like he’s about to pour off of it.
The year he came of age, he got to play the Rumpus Cat at the Jellicle Ball—it was the most exciting thing he’d ever done thus far, and the congratulatory hugs from Admetus and Munkustrap afterwards were the icing on the cake.  He still has the goggles he wore and sometimes puts them on to sneak up behind cats and scare them.
He used to court a queen named Zyleta from Esther’s mini-Tribe, but not being able to see each other as much as they wanted made them drift apart.  But Tumble soon saw that the real love of his life, Tolstoy (@voltsdolt​), had been there from the very beginning.  And they eventually had a daughter named Aurora together.

Life Needs Things to Live, Chapter One
I am so sorry for this.  My brain took every romcom cliché and AU I love and created this disaster fic. It’s a modern au blended with college au, a sprinkle of single parent au, and every single Hallmark-romcom cliché I hold dear in my bitter black heart.  It only gets more goopy from here.
Warning: vague illusions to Anna Ripley and child abuse
-*-*-*-
“Are you sure you don’t mind, Kiki?”  Percy struggled with his bag and cell phone and holding onto both dog and small child, “I know it’s last minute, but Victor just offered me another shift.  I can’t afford not to take it.”
“Of course I don’t mind! What else are friends for?”
“You know you’re more like a sister to me, Keyleth.  Thank you. Again.  I’ll buy you wine.”
“You know I won’t say no to that!  I’ll be by around six with food.”
“No fast food.  You know how I feel about that.”
“Yeah, yeah.  Party pooper.”
“You don’t have to deal with the crash!  Oh, sh-shoot. Pepper, get the keys please.”
“I’ll let you go, okay? See you later!”
Big blue eyes stared up at him with an impressive, familiar scowl.  His daughter was a firebrand already, displaying the full force of the de Rolo stubbornness.  Percy stifled the grin as he ran his fingers through the messy short hair, basking in the slight smile that his daughter offered him.  His daughter, his little girl, his reason for living.  She was the only good thing to come out of the last shitty, shitty decade.  Her blue eyes stared up at him, slightly warm but still hard, a huge improvement from when he had finally been awarded custody after over a year of fighting.
“Daddy, why is Aunt Kiki coming again?”  Ah, the reason for the scowl.  She was displeased at him having to work.  He ushered her in, dropping both of their backpacks on the bench, unharnessing Pepper so the dog could be more comfortable, “Shoes!”
“Thank you, pup,” he untied his heavy work boots then bent to help Beau.  She scowled at him and sat down to do it herself, much to his amusement, “I got another shift at the garage.  A little extra money would be helpful.  Just in case.”
Percy made it a habit to never lie to Beau, despite her age.  He would conceal certain topics, but she was far too mature to be treated like an infant.  He had been side-eyed before, but it wasn’t like he gave a fuck what some middle-aged Karen thought about his parenting.  Beau was better behaved than half the little shits at her preschool and daycare.
For instance, she was only four and had just carefully removed her own shoes—blue converse that matched the black ones he wore on his days off—to place them next to his boots.  She hung up her coat and her backpack on her own hook without prompting, following his more practiced motions a little clumsily. Beau gamely followed their dog into the living room, plopping down by the massive black shepherd and stroking her ears fondly, obviously deep in thought.
“Oh.  Okay.  Can I watch a karate movie again?”
“You and Aunt Kiki should talk about it.  Maybe she’d like to watch something else,” Percy chuckled at the offended look this warranted. Beau felt very strongly that karate movies were the best movies.  Only Star Wars or Mulan stood a chance of pulling her attention away from her heroes.
“But karate!”
“Yes, karate.  But Keyleth might want to watch a movie about animals instead.”
She humphed, “I’d watch anythin’ if I could be in a class…”
“No karate until you start school-school and go a month without starting a fight,” Percy grinned as he unpacked his schoolbooks to settle them on the kitchen table to study. This was an old fight, one they had at least once a week.  Percy wanted so badly to cave, but he was determined to hold the line on at least a few things.  To the best of his ability.
“I was defendin’ Jester and Fjord!  They was bein’ mean!”
“And you started the fight then got caught.  Remember, be sneaky so that the children who deserve to be in trouble get in trouble,” yeah, he didn’t give a single fuck what anyone else thought of his parenting skills, “Go wild if an adult corners you and tries to touch you in a way you don’t like.  Headbutt them or kick them then run.”
“Duh,” she rolled her eyes and he really did laugh.  He was raising an absolute monster of a daughter and he did not care one bit.
***
Keyleth hung up the phone and bit her lip, worrying at it.  Percy sounded so strained on the phone.  She glanced up, thinking of the two empty rooms on the fifth floor. Maybe she should mention it to her roommates and family.  The future botanist wandered downstairs, rehearsing exactly what she would say to them. It was around five on a Friday, so everyone but Tiberius would be home and gathered in the communal kitchen.
She heard the shouting and playfighting before she entered, laughing at the sight.  Grog and Vax were fighting over the last of the cereal again, Grog towering over the slighter man with ease.  That never stopped Vax, stubborn as he was, despite the nearly two feet and hundred pounds Grog had on him.  Vex was watching with a grin, Trinket’s huge head in her lap.  Pike was ignoring everything around her, including an amorous Scanlan, in favor of a medical text.  Just another typical day at 1215 Mercer Lane.
“Um, guys?  Can I talk to you for a second?”
Vax used the moment to steal the cereal box and scramble on top of the fridge out of Grog’s reach, prompting a rage-fueled shout from Grog.  Vex focused on Kiki with her sharp eyes, Scanlan turned with a shit-eating grin, and Pike slammed her book shut rather loudly to stop the fight.  Mamma Pike in action, gathering attention as always.
Keyleth took a deep, deep breath, “So you know my friend?  The one in my painting and botany classes I study with?”
“The rich boy?  Walks like he’s got a stick up his arse?” Vax piped up.  Their other friends looked a bit constipated trying to recall him, “White haired grumpy guy.”
A chorus of ‘ohs’ echoed around the kitchen as they all pictured the rather strange, very formal man. Well, everyone but Vex.  She looked a bit put out at not knowing this guy. She liked being in the know almost as much as she liked bargaining.
“That’s Percy. He-Okay, he’s not actually rich his parents are but they haven’t talked in literal years at this point and he lives on his own, going to school and working two or three jobs.  He’s a single dad and he’s got a shit load of issues that make it hard for him to work and go to school so he’s struggling even if he won’t admit it to me.  I know we discussed renting out the two rooms next to Vex’s and I was wondering if we could interview them,” she flooded the room with words, gasping, shaking at the effort it took to actually vocalize all of it, fidgeting with her bracelet.
“Good job, Keyleth. That was a lot to get out,” sweet Pike beamed at her, “His name is Percy?”
“Percival de Rolo. His daughter is named Beau and they have a dog named Pepper.”
Scanlan wrinkled his nose, “A kid means no wild parties.”
“Oh, yes, because we so often host those,” Vex snarked, leaning onto one elbow, stroking Trinket’s ears, “He has a kid?  At our age?”
“Why doesn’t he just ask his parents if they’re so wealthy?” Vax narrowed his eyes, always suspicious, “He looks privileged enough.”
Keyleth began to chew her lip, stressing about how much to reveal, “They just don’t talk.  At all.  I don’t know much and I don’t want to say what I do know.”
“Is he a good person?” Pike tilted her head, eyes solemn.
“The best! Well, he’s terrible but still wonderful.  He works really hard to provide for Beau.  He fought for custody from Child Protective.  They had her in an awful home ad he didn’t stop until he had custody of her.  Worked three jobs, went to class, and to court.  He loves her.  It would really help him out to have lower rent and live-in sitters.”
“She a cool kid?  Or she into princesses and all that shit?” of course Grog was concerned with Beau’s preferences.  Pink and glitter would have been his second worst nightmare.
“The coolest!” Keyleth beamed, “She’s more into martial arts.  They have a deal she can start taking classes when she goes into Kindergarten and goes a month without being caught fighting the school bullies.  She likes Mulan and Merida, but she’d rather watch Bruce Lee any day.”
“Sounds legit!”
Vax shared a deep, thoughtful glance with Vex before they both nodded their consent.  Pike beamed, “So five votes yes.  Scanlan?”
“For you, Pikey, I suppose I’ll agree.  Maybe we could go on a date?  To discuss the new roommate?”
“We’ll have a house dinner to discuss them.  After the interview.  So, who’s going to tell Tibsy?”
The others muffled laughter at Pike’s kind shut down.  Scanlan would never learn at all.  Keyleth beamed at her family, knowing in her gut that getting Percy and Beau in the house would be absolutely wonderful.
