    Summary

    Prompt: 💖 Percy trying to teach Annabeth how to play pool with all the cliches that come with it except that he’s mediocre at best and she pretends to suck at it just so he can do the ✨here like This✨ thing 💖💖💖

    “One more game? Anyone?” Percy calls over to them as he begins to re-rack the balls.
    “Nah, I’m gonna get another round,” Grover shouts back. The rest of the boys wave him off, and Percy walks over.
    “How about you, Annabeth? Wanna play a game of pool? One-on-one?”
    Her eyes narrow for a moment, and she makes a snap decision. She smiles innocently. “Sure! You’ll have to teach me, though.”
    “I think I can manage that.”
    “Lead the way, then.”

    Summary

    Listen now my-our ears be not-dragon, he urges, humming and filling the space between them with every shade of red and gold he can imagine. Every tiny response he gets, he weaves the color into his sunset until he can feel their minds start to braid together again. There’s still so much white, but he pushes bright-flame-reds until it melts away, leaving pale blues behind that he snatches up and paints with. Fly-fast leave NOW.

    Toothless comes back to himself, back to Them, with a startle that shakes his whole body and a growl that calls the attention of every dragon nearby to the Two-who-are-One and the human-friend clinging to Their human-half. (She reeks of fear, just for a moment while their senses are strong before They retreat into Their human-mind, shedding dragon-senses that make Them vulnerable.)

    My very own series rewrite — not because I think the movies needed changing (aside from the third), just for fun. Canon isn’t super consistent on how intelligent dragons are (which is to say, they dumb them down as the series goes on), so I decided to standardize it at “higher than the first movie”! Inspired somewhat by Jane Yolen’s Pit Dragon Chronicles because I adore the dragons in that.

    Summary

    BOTL: For the rest of the summer, "Annabeth and I pretty much skirted around each other. I was glad to be with her, but it also kind of hurt, and it hurt when I wasn't with her, too."

    - or -

    As he looks up, he sees the distress that she’s attempting to mask. It strikes him that even though she’s clearly anxious to know what had happened that day, in this moment she is more concerned with comforting him, with making sure he’s alright.

    He’s reminded of a time when their roles had been reversed—when her world was crumbling, and he had just wanted her to be okay. A bubble at the bottom of the ocean, his arms around her as she had cried for a future she’d never have: a city of marble and gold, a happy family, the boy she had lost to the other side of the war. He pushes the past few weeks out of his mind and remembers that this is Annabeth, his best friend. One of the people he trusts most in the world.

    “I was burning alive,” he exhales.
