Summary
Adults expect reunions to be grand, accompanied by much fanfare, tears, and no small amount of emotion.
Children, while they may have the emotion, often fall back together as if they’d never been apart.A lonely boy meets a lonely girl in a pond. They're sure they'll be friends forever, but time changes everything; even friendship.
Sometimes people grow apart. Sometimes they become something more. And sometimes, confusingly, a lonely boy and a lonely girl are caught somewhere in between. -
a two week long first date (with someone you might hate) by Imaginmatrix

Summary
Annabeth shifted on the sofa; “Um, did you need something? I’m actually waiting for someone, so—”
The guy’s laugh was dry, incredulous; “Thalia seriously didn’t even bother to send you a photo?”
It took a bit longer for the meaning of his words to zip through all the little power lines and paths of Annabeth’s brain, to form into an understandable concept, and once they did—
Oh. Oh no.
Not this guy.Annabeth Chase needs the perfect fake-boyfriend for her brother's destination wedding in Greece. Percy Jackson needs cash. Now they both majorly regret trusting their mutual friends to set them up; because a bad boy with piercings, tattoos, and black eyeliner isn't the picture-perfect all-American boy Annabeth had in mind to impress her parents with. And Percy isn't sure he can survive two weeks on an island with a snobby blonde (no matter how pretty) and her snobbier family.

Summary
Percy sighed, running his hand through his dark hair, “Just look at me, I’m not… I’m not superhero material. I don’t have— I don’t…” he huffed through his nose. “Heroes in the comics are all cool and charming and selfless and have their shit together. I'm none of those things. I’d be a shitty hero.”
Percy Jackson didn’t ask for superpowers; yet that’s exactly what the universe deigned to gift him. He’s not complaining. It’s about time his luck turned around— but when his city is in danger, when friends are lost, and the girl of his dreams insists on endangering herself, does he have the strength to stand against the coming storm?
Percy is no hero.
But he might be the only one who can save the world.

Summary
The person was so still, they might have been a statue. A sculpture carved from marble, beautiful enough to be displayed in temples. The breathing stopped—had she imagined it? Were they stone afterall, an abandoned masterpiece left to guard this little clearing for eternity?
Ellana’s arm lifted, hand delicately hovering before those lips. She vaguely registered warmth, and even more distantly found surprise in that. Then her fingertips barely brushed against that soft bottom lip, and—
A hand roughly grabbed her wrist and she cried out in fright, nearly stumbling back if not for the vice that held her in place…
Ellana, First of Clan Lavellan, has always had trouble wielding her magic. It bunches up inside her, tangled and frayed, instilling an ache she cannot name. But during a solitary walk in the woods to recover from her latest failure, a chance encounter with a stranger results in surprising relief, and utter satisfaction.

Summary
Oh, how he wanted to unravel her. Pluck at the threads, smooth the twists, soothe her aching soul and confused mind. What she could craft with the resulting yarn, neatly separated and ready to be woven into tapestries…Solas had seen incredible things from her. The idea that it was possible for the woman to transcend the divine acts, and kindness, and power he’d witnessed from her before made him near beside himself with the need to see that. The desperation to go to her, beg for her forgiveness, let her catch him this time so he may try to heal what he’d broken—
But he needed to heal the world he’d broken too.
And he could not have both.
Three times Solas breaks his promise not to visit the dreams of his vhenan, who refuses to move on but cannot fight her loneliness. Three times he breaks his own heart all over again. And three times he cruelly, unintentionally allows himself to hope.

exceeds expectations by a-latte by Imaginmatrix

Summary
”Don’t worry though, I’ll try harder to get it wrong next time. If I set expectations too high for myself from the get-go, you might start thinking too highly of me, and we can’t have that.”
“Can’t we?” Annabeth brought the cup to her mouth but did not drink yet, blowing idly at the lid out of habit.
Percy leaned on the counter, and Annabeth swore she saw his gaze flicker to her lips. Just for a second. “Definitely can’t.”
A barista finally, finally spells Annabeth’s name right on her cup. And it doesn’t hurt that he’s hotter than her latte.

Summary
At first, Percy wasn’t mad that Annabeth had been injured. He was just mad that she hadn’t told him.
Being mad she was injured came after he realized how she got injured.
“Cutting power to an elevator you’re inside isn’t logical. It’s stupid.”
Annabeth is hurt, so naturally Percy is pissed about it. Problem is, the injury is her own damn fault—and at this point, Percy is pretty sure his girlfriend’s antics and the ensuing heart attack he’ll inevitably suffer are going to be the death of him.

Summary
He was her nemesis. She wasn’t sure when it happened; maybe it was when they coached opposing middle grade soccer teams. Or perhaps it was the debacle with the high school volleyball season at the Y. It could have even been that very first basketball game, the one where she had been introduced to Percy Jackson, bane of her existence.
Annabeth wondered how many sports they’d go through before one of them actually killed the other.Coach Jackson always knows just how to get under Coach Chase’s skin— but he’s not the only one who knows how to play dirty.

Summary
“So you’ve seen me in… what, shampoo commercials?”
Lee shook his head, “My f— s...someone my mom used to know, uh… helped fund that one movie; Glacier Soul?”
“You… you remember me from that?” She laughed again, both delighted and aghast, “It wasn’t even a big role, I wasn’t a lead or anything— and I wasn’t great in it—“
“No.” Lee‘s voice was firm, no room for disagreement. If he didn’t sound so earnest, Katara may have assumed he was just being nice. “You were perfect.”A teashop with a skyscraper balanced atop is a ludicrous concept- yet The Jasmine Dragon is Katara's favorite place in the world. But the owner's nephew is the latest employee, and Katara isn't sure she likes this 'Lee' all that much...

Summary
It took twenty minutes after Spider-Man fulfilled his promise to come back for her, feet on solid ground and the shock wearing off, for Annabeth to realize he knew her name. But it took only seconds more to realize that when he spoke to her, she hadn’t even thought of him as Spider-Man; she had just thought of him as “Percy.”
Percy is wounded. He's wounded, and it's not the first time, and he will likely be hurt again tomorrow. Annabeth wonders if she can bear to take that next step and admit her feelings, when any day could be his last.

Summary
”Annabeth knew she couldn’t, wouldn’t stop herself, because that delicate string that connected them was growing stronger, a spider web to a fishing line to a sewing thread to a strand of yarn and on and on and on—“

Moonlight, Starlight by Imaginmatrix

Summary
She was pretty, but Percy had seen pretty before. This was different. This was…
Intense.
There was something in her expression that felt a thousand years old; she was clearly around his age, but her gaze had seen the rise and fall of empires, revolutions, tragedies, and everything that filled the eons between.
But she was just a girl, and Percy was a bad poet.

Summary
“Stop provoking me.”
Annabeth turned wide eyes down to him, her made-up lips parting as she fought a smile, “Me?”
Percy rolled his eyes, “No, Cleopatra— Yes, you.”
“What am I doing…?”
“You know exactly what you’re doing.” His grip seemed to tighten. Not enough to hurt—though Annabeth wasn’t opposed to it hurting a little—but enough to make her realize that she wasn’t wrong about the past few days; he was working overtime to resist.
And Annabeth liked feeling irresistible.

Summary
Her head jerked up, eyes narrowing, only to be met with a pair of the most startling sea green eyes she’d ever seen. The nose between them looked like it had been carved from marble, the lips beneath that were perfectly shaped, full. He was tanned, topped with a mop of wavy black hair, and he looked like a Greek god on earth; Annabeth would know. She was the resident expert on Greek gods. It only took a second for these thoughts to cross her mind before she realized he’d said something to her with a smile and she blinked, “What?”

Summary
“I can take your last name when we get married, if you want.”
She jerked to turn and stare at him, the strands of hair slipping through his fingers. Which was a bit annoying, because he was pretty sure this was his best braid yet.
“...What?”

Summary
Annabeth blinked, “Is this your way of coming on to me?”
“Is it working?” His gaze was unwavering, even as she rolled her eyes and huffed.
She sighed, picking another strawberry off her plate and popping it in her mouth as she mulled it over. True, it was probably a bad idea to do this too often, but… She kind of wanted to try it again. Make sure their crazy sexual chemistry the night before wasn’t a fluke. For science. Yeah. For science. Just this once. -
