Summary
“You were looking for an excuse to speak to him anyways, and I gave it to you,” Aphrodite rolls her eyes, disregarding most of his words, and handing Apollo her wine glass in order to pull a mirror out of her bag, checking her lipstick. He resists the urge to spill it over her dress. “And, he asked me for help, even left me offerings. Why wouldn’t I take a chance to make two negatives a positive?”
“He left you dinner leftovers.”
Aphrodite waves it off. “Same thing, really. My children keep leaving me make-up and chocolate. Other people leave flowers. They’re sweet, but at least Percy Jackson offers something less habitual. I hate boredom.”
“You love chaos, and plotting, like with Reyna,” Apollo translates, and starts drinking her wine because, what in Hades, might as well. He needs a drink. “So I was a negative that needed fixing?”
“You are, yes,” she nods, no remorse to it, and Apollo wonders why he decided to go through with this.
--------------
Percy gets himself into a tough situation, Apollo helps. Love ensues, and it's only slightly Aphrodite's fault.Series

Summary
Comics-ish alternate universe, where Dick goes to ground in Crime Alley after Blockbuster implodes his entire life, and joins the Red Hood Gang by accident. Jason's plans for revenge get magnificently derailed, and the Batfam manages to be just a little bit softer.

Summary
The girl whimpered in her sleep, curled in her brother's side. The boy's hands twitched, small bandages peppering his arms where the fire had gotten to him while trying to protect his sister. Shamrock was still unsure why he had saved them - his trip to Flevance had been meant for information only, to see if anything could be recovered from the destruction. He had almost passed them by; wouldn't have seen them at all if the girl hadn't whimpered, if her brother hadn't shushed her desperately, voice cracking as he begged her to stay awake for a while longer.
The moment his eyes fell on them, the boy jumped to his feet and almost toppled, a too small rock in his hands the only protection he had for himself and his sister.
They were small. Too small and weak, fragile. Delicate even, with their white marked skin and shivering bodies.
Broken, the doctor had said and Shamrock had wanted to snap at him in anger.
Or Shanks had a plan. His brother's children were not part of it. (They are now.)

Summary
Oh, forgive me Lord / Oh, a minor chord
You put me in this house / I had to claw right outNearly a year since you started your new life, keeping your head down and avoiding trouble. You were finally starting to get some semblance of normalcy- of complacency- when you throw it all out the window to stop the harassment of a street clown. Now he was showing up everywhere. And in a selfish, twisted way you craved him just as badly as he seemed to crave you.
Eventual Polycirco (aka reader gets w all 5 circus members AND implied all the members are kinda involved to some degree) but starts out VERY Pierrot heavy (w some Harlequin). This was written before day 3 so if there's conflicting canon later, that's why.
