Summary
There were things to do. Sirens wailed in the distance, and the world was always burning ever on. But they stood and they watched the bricks crumble and they watched the rain fall and the smoke curl into nothing. They weren’t really injured, either of them. It was a rare opponent who could catch Cassandra, especially when they did not see her coming. And Tim…
Well. They had wanted Tim for something different.
(Tim and Cassandra and the aftermath of the encounter with Promise and her Sister.)

Summary
Zagreus takes one vacation (which ends up accidentally being about four mortal years long because of time dilation in Chaos, but that's not his fault), and when he comes back, Thanatos is missing, the Doors of Death are open, and his previously-unknown demigod half-brother is trapped in Tartarus.
Clearly, no one in the Underworld but him can get anything done.

Summary
“Oh my gods, you’re Nyx’s son, Zagreus,” Percy realizes, still telepathically linked to the guy.
“That’s… yes. Yeah. It’s funny, usually I’m recognized as my father’s son first.”
“Is he famous or something?” Percy asks.
There’s a long, drawn out silence before Zagreus answers.
“No, he’s a bit of a nobody, really. We just look similar.”
~ ~ ~
Zagreus summons aid from an odd patron. Percy receives a confusing call for help from a “demigod.”

Summary
Because of a faulty language module, Murderbot ends up on Dominicus-9 instead of somewhere actually conducive to getting evidence against GrayCris. Fortunately it doesn’t actually have to spend that much time on the station, but while it’s there can it figure out why a station would have gravedirt? And what’s up with the person wearing human bones?
Actually, fuck that, no thank you.

Summary
Written as a late entry for Dedue Week 2024. Prompt: Food.
-
His fishing rod tugged in his hands, and in a rush, the memories of the sea breeze rustling through the trees, whistling tors—all the things that encapsulated the fiery wisps of his childhood at the limits of his memories flooded him with something akin to bittersweetness.
“Hey, looks like you got a good catch this time,” a rough voice interrupted from behind him.
Dedue reeled the fish in, noting how heavy it felt. With a satisfied quirk of his lips, he deposited the white trout into his brimming basket of fish.
“The head cook will be happy with that,” the man behind him continued as Dedue started to pack his things away. “He said you’d help with gathering the ingredients for today’s Fisherman’s Bounty special.”
-
Or, Dedue decides to cook himself a feast for a forgotten Duscurian holiday. Unexpectedly, he has people who want to celebrate with him.

Summary
He had cursed out in pain as he landed, groaning in agony as he clutched his sword arm. Shit, he had choked out, forcing himself up into a sitting position. Legend shook his head, blinking the dizziness from the portal away, glancing up to see it disappear into nothing.
With gritted teeth he hauled himself up onto his unsteady two feet, body shuddering a bit from the way his tunic quickly soaked. It was wet, cold, and it was coming down hard here, plus none of his brothers seemed to have landed near him. Another curse almost left his lips, until he heard something crackle.
Legend's eyes nearly turned to pinpricks as he felt a pair of predatory eyes on him. An ominous feeling bubbling in his gut, Legend snapped his head around quickly, only to come eye to eye with the icy piercing gaze of a Golden Lynel.
Oh fuck.
or
Legend gets chased down by an infected, black-blooded Golden Lynel while injured and is unable to fight against the monster in his wounded state. Is this it for him?
Luckily, a different Golden Lynel comes to his rescue.
