    AU// god percy and huntress annabeth

    When Percy chose immortality, he'd never imagined he'd feel so alone.

    When Annabeth chose life as a huntress, she'd hoped to forget her anger.

    But when things beneath the earth begin to stir, it sets off a chain of events and reveals secrets neither one of them could have imagined.

    Summary

    “I get that you're difficult by nature,” Akuna says, sliding down the wall to sit on the floor of Cal's cell next to him like they're not interrogator and prisoner, but just casual acquaintances hanging out. He cracks open his own bottle of water and takes a sip, then continues, “or Lank wouldn't be losing more of his hair trying to break you. But when I tell you to drink, you gotta drink, Kestis.”

    Cal snorts. “What,” he croaks, “I have to get better so you can be the one to break me instead?”

    Akuna pauses for a moment, then shrugs and nods. “Pretty much.”

    -

    Cal’s been stuck in ISB custody for a while now and he refuses to give them any information on Cere's location. Agent Akuna’s been tasked with fixing that.

    Summary

    This was a chance to take a break and explore. There's no Imperial presence on this planet.

    Technically, that's not a lie.

    He runs a hand through his hair and finally calls the Mantis.

    “Hey, Cere, I found something. It looks like the entrance to an old Imperial facility. It’s built into the mountain.”

    “Interesting that nothing came up on my scans. Is there a landing pad nearby?”

    “Nope. Also, there’s no way to get here on foot unless you really, really like climbing.” He pauses. “And jumping. And getting covered in mud.”

    “…Cal,” she sighs in exasperation. “I told you to turn back if that happened, and now you’re at an Imperial base.”

    “It’s not a base, if that helps.”

    “It doesn’t.”

    “I got curious,” Cal says with a shrug. Cere mutters something that sounds suspiciously like, I should’ve known. “Can’t get back the same way I came, though. It was a bit tricky getting here in the first place. I’m going to have to go through the facility. Looks pretty abandoned. I’m sure it’s fine.”

    “Famous last words!” Greez shouts.

    NOW with ART in the endnotes!!!

    Summary

    “Joel.” He says. He’s Texan, which as far as Ellie’s concerned is an accent-imitating jackpot.

    "Can I call you Joe?"

    "No."

    "Jojo?"

    "Absolutely not."

    There's a brief silence.
    “You’re gonna stop me from getting shot in the face?”

    “That’s the job.”

    ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    As the (alleged) daughter of the new president, Ellie Wiliams is hellbent on making herself as much of a nuisance as possible. Joel Miller, the virtually unreadable and perpetually grumpy bodyguard assigned to watch her for eighteen hours a day, certainly thinks she's doing a good job of it. But as Ellie processes losses of her past and present, she slowly begins to realise just how valuable it can be to have someone watching your back.

    (Angst/eventual fluff found family Joel & Ellie AU, slow-burn father-daughter relationship.)
