    Summary

    Annabeth had sat him down and explained that good humans didn’t smile when they killed things. Annabeth had always been sympathetic to his oddities- his little quirks. Child of the Big Three, right? Punk skater kids who could raze the earth and salt the ashes if allowed to live long enough- but he was worse. Everything had tried to kill him-

    Everything-

    But it had backfired and now he was just very good at killing everything else. Was that how this was supposed to go?

    He distantly remembers being scared of this. Of reading a book with a flashlight under the covers, of watching the words twist before his eyes and catching his lip between his teeth because his dad made him this way. But he met Tyson- he met Tyson and maybe it was okay.

    Maybe it was okay his blood flecked with something else.

    Is it okay that he’s not afraid of it anymore? It feels like destiny. Fate. It feels inevitable.

    Or: Poseidon is the Father of Monsters. Tartarus is Percy Jackson's final push.

    Summary

    Percy was four years old the first time his dreams led him to his many-great-grandmother’s chambers- a woman long dead yet somehow still seated in front of him, fingers grasping at her hair tightly as she wails about a wooden horse on the beach while her servants look on in pity. He feels the weight of something ancient and heavy settle on his shoulders in that moment.

    He was in his 1st grade classroom when his teacher screamed at him for making up lies about gods and monsters and scaring the other children. He was eight when his mother's own visions become too much for her to bear.

    He's at Yancy when Grover Underwood finally finds him and says "I believe you" for the first time. And as Percy begins to feel lighter, that ancient weight that has followed him his whole life slowly dissipating, he realizes that being believed can be just as horrifying as being thought mad.

    Summary

    About a week after that, All Might asked Izuku if he was aiming for the hero course at UA. The question was so sudden that Izuku nearly dropped a microwave on his toes.

    The truth was, if All Might had asked him that a week ago, there would have only been one possible answer to that question. All Might had gone to UA, UA was the best, so Izuku was going to go there too, if he could. But things were a little different, now that he was going to receive All Might’s Quirk.

    “No,” he said, decisively.

    All Might looked caught off guard, which was a very rare expression on him. “No?” he echoed, like he couldn’t believe it.

    A laugh bubbled out of Izuku’s throat. He honestly couldn’t believe it either. “No,” he repeated.

    ___

    Or, All Might tells Izuku about All for One before he gives him One for All, and everything changes.
