    Summary

    Magic, wonderful, strange and unpredictable magic took note of him and instead of doing the logical thing, acknowledging what he is, carving out a place between all the other wondrous creatures in this world – magic lifted him up instead.

    And left him somewhere else.

    Summary

    "You are made of ivory and gold," Apollo said, smiling softly to himself. "The curve of your lips will rewrite history."

    Percy looked down at his hands, tan even in the winter, his eyes dancing with amusement. Apollo was pleased to see it. Tragedy was so much sweeter when there was joy to balance it—a hint of catharsis among the ruins. And Percy Jackson seemed to be tragedy personified, in far too many ways. Apollo wanted to somehow save him.

    "I'm quoting my son," Apollo explained, laughing. "I've always found the line rather ridiculous–overly dramatic, even for me–but I understand it now, looking at you, Percy."

    ~~~

    Several years after the events with Python, Percy and Apollo are drawn together, for better or for worse.

    Summary

    “You were in the ambulance with Ken-chin,” Mikey says. He begins wrapping the bandages around Takemichi’s hand. “The doctors said he coded there. That his heart stopped. Because he moved suddenly and tried to talk, and that was too much stress.” He looks up, then, black holes for eyes. Takemichi shoulders the gaze. “He talked to you.”

    “He did,” Takemichi answers softly. The good arm that’s wrapped around the pillow he’d picked up clenches around it. He already knows what the question is, but he lets Mikey ask it anyway.

    “What did he say?”

    “He talked about you,” Takemichi replies, simply. “You’re his brother. Why would he talk about anything else?”

    Or, people seem to have the odd habit of entrusting Mikey to him when they're about to die. Takemichi recognizes patterns.

    Summary

    “Which brings me to why I’ve been looking for you.” Eraserhead says, “We know virtually nothing about Overhaul and his whereabouts. But the people around here do, whether they realize it or not. I need someone that they trust.”

    “You need an informant.” Dabi says, leaning heavily against the wall. “Why the fuck would I do that for you?”

    “Because it means I won’t arrest you for the very long list of crimes that we both know you’re responsible for.”

    Dabi scoffs. Of course it comes down to blackmail.

    __________

    Or,

    In another world, when Touya dies, Dabi leaves his ashes where they lie. In this world, he wonders. And in his wondering, there is Touya.

    Touya, the boy, the hero, the casualty, sneaking his way back in.
