    Summary

    There was no sense in feeling so heartbroken over a man with more lovers than stars in the sky, who was so widely adored he had no reason to remember an insignificant mortal. And yet the god had managed to leave a cavity in his life so deep and unfillable no other man or woman he had been with could ever dream to make up for his absence.

     

    [In which a certain Spartan prince falls head over heels for his godly hookup. Surely there won’t be any deadly consequences.]

    Summary

    A queen who has been waiting for her husband for more than twenty years, a sea god banished by his brother because he had made too much noise and a wild captain entered a bar

    No, it's not a bad joke, but it's what happens when a certain Penelope sets sail with a certain Poseidon who is a little too mortal to go and recover that idiot of Odysseus (who in the meantime seems to still be alive?)

    Summary

    Até hoje, Jack nunca soubera se aquilo havia sido um gesto genuíno de altruísmo por parte de Hércules, ou apenas uma desculpa cuidadosamente elaborada. E, para ser sincero, nem sequer se importava mais. No fim das contas, ele obteve exatamente o que sempre desejou, desde o instante em que se perdeu na beleza daquela alma — permanecer ao seu lado, muito além do que ousou imaginar, até que o tempo se tornasse irrelevante.

    Ou,
    Mesmo ciente de que nada daquilo era saudável, Jack se calou, faminto por qualquer migalha de afeto que pudesse encontrar.

    Summary

    Roier knew every struggle the world had to offer. He himself had experienced many of those, the stars in his eyes went dark and cold long ago.

    Cellbit knew of the struggles too. The difference was that he was able to transform even the darkest of times in a warm and colourful painting with only a touch of strings.

    Fate united the two of them.

    But, soon, it broke them apart too.

    Summary

    The Olympians have always had their heroes. It used to be Hercules and Theseus. Achilles and Patroclus. Aeneas and Odysseus. Romulus and Remus. In the 21st century, it happened to be Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase.

    But the minor gods… The minor gods never had anyone until Viola Summercket.

    (Alternatively: A daughter of Athena with a knack for defying expectations baffles the minor deities into semi-adopting her, inspired by 'You're on your own kid', by Taylor Swift)

    Summary

    “I am no longer what I was.”
    It is her voice. She knows it is her own, distant and distorted, and hates its burn across her tongue. She hates the truth that echoes into tantalizing oblivion.
    “Nor am I,” he says. It tastes like a blessing, and yet it pales against the promise in his touch, the hand that cloaks her own. “Calliope, one cannot live unchanged. We cannot.”
    “Then I shall not,” she confesses. “Oneiros, I cannot.”
    “You can,” he vows, and she aches to believe him. “Stay, Calliope, here and with me.”
    -
    in which a muse shatters and grows and permits herself to be saved.

    (aka: calliope in the nightmares' cave.)

    Summary

    The Man in the Moon is powerful, but compassionate. He is a gentle leader, a loving leader, with a constant smile and a desire to protect children and everything that makes childhood magical.

    How do we know that?

    Well, the moon told us so.

    Jack Frost, deep in anxiety, grief, and identity crises, is no longer sure if he can trust the watchful moon that he used to confide in. There are too many questions, too many secrets, and too many unsatisfying answers.

    The Muses and the Guardians are allies. When the Muses plan mutiny against their own leader, the Man in the Moon's character begins to come into question as well. Finding their future uncertain, the Guardians need to take a closer look at the past for clarity.

    There may be more to the question, "Who are you, Jack Frost?" than previously thought.

    The clock is ticking, and a deadline is quickly approaching that has the potential to throw everything into chaos. The answers will come to light regardless of anyone's attempts to keep them deep in darkness.
