Summary
Migration is a huge feat of endurance requiring immense strength and stamina and comes with a real risk of death along the way. So, it begs the question of why birds brave these epic journeys, and how do they know when or where to travel? - Danielle Shaw, 2021
Aristotle, naturalist and philosopher of ancient Greece, was one of the first observers whose writings are known to discuss the subject of bird migration. He noted cranes traveled from the steppes of Scythia to the marshes at the headwaters of the Nile, and pelicans, geese, swans, rails, doves, and many other birds likewise passed to warmer regions to spend the winter. - Frederick C. Lincoln, 1935
Why some birds migrate and others don’t is the focus of a complex and active field of research. Finding food generally is believed to be the main driver. Additional motivations could include to escape from inclement weather and to reduce exposure to predators or parasites, especially during breeding season. - Priyanka Runwal, 2021

Leo's entire existance has been nothing but constant motion, always fleeing, never chasing, never finding home. But now he's back at Camp, ex-Titaness in tow, so maybe things will be different. Maybe he'll learn to soar

Summary
Stiles groans and drops his face into his hands. “I’m seventeen, I can kind of use mountain ash and I can explode houses when I’m mad enough. How am I gonna win any kind of magic fight?”
“We’ll work on it,” Deaton says, as infuriatingly calm as ever. “The important thing to remember, Stiles, is that when everything else is chaos, you’re the port in the storm.”
Or-
Laura Hale never died, and Stiles is magic.

Summary
Jason was sure he’d known how to kindle a fire, at one point. But any ability he may have once possessed in regards to starting fires had been at least partially wiped away along with his memories.
And if that hadn’t been bad enough, the skill was also suffering from severe disuse. His best friend’s powers were centered around fire. Why would Jason have to bother with starting one by hand when Leo was right there, more than happy to get the job down with a grin on his face and a lazy flick of the wrist?
Except right now, Leo was unconscious and cold as ice, and he was counting on Jason to know how to do this.
And Jason was failing him.
———
Between Festus crash landing in the Appalachians, his powers still not working and almost getting drowned and turned into siren lunch, it’s safe to say that Jason Grace is having a miserable day. He’d almost dared to say things couldn’t get much worse.
Then it turns out something is severely wrong with Leo.
