    Summary

    I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.

    Right up until Rocky asks another question.

    “When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”

    Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”

    Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.

    “Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”

    I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.

    “When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”

    I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.

    “Grace. When last time, question.”

    I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.

    “Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”

    I can taste grass.

    ---

    AKA: Grace starves for more than just food on the journey to Erid.

    Summary

    “What are you talking about?” Grace's fingers played quick chords as he spoke. He didn’t even look as he did it, but it did not make them any less purposeful.

    “Discussing possible reasons why Tau Ceti is not infected while other stars are,” Eva replied deftly. “I would invite you to join, but we were just finishing—”

    “Oh, that’s easy.” His hand twisted a knob, and the notes came out sharper. “It is infected—Petrova Line and everything.”

    In Grace's opinion, dreaming about time traveling is no excuse for getting out of practice with his Eridian. To the rest of the Petrova Taskforce, it seems a bit odd that their resident Astrophage expert has suddenly taken to carrying a keyboard around and playing it whenever he speaks. Eva Stratt resolves to figure out what is going on.

    After a dispute over the ideal means of production, 11-year-old me falls into Middle Earth. Basically the same plot as every falling-into-ME story ever, except I pretend to be a boy because I don’t trust Aragorn’s motives. Disclaimer: I was an idiot ok

    Summary

    The roar of thunder overhead shook the skies. Maglor's breath came in short pants, his arms and legs aching. Behind him he could hear the howls of Ungoliant, could smell her vile stench as she hunted him through the gathering dark. He could not look back. All he could do was push himself onward, faster and farther, hoping against hope that he could outrun the terrible beast.

    Summary

    The new world the Valar created seemed to be a great deal like the old one, but without the taint of Melkor. The Children remained blissfully ignorant of the old world, thinking to themselves that it was the first time life had been sung into creation.

    And the elves seemed happy.

    Except for one.

     

    In which the world is given a chance to start anew, but without the influence of Melkor, the Noldor never leave Valinor, and many souls are never born.

    Summary

    There are men turning up dead in the woods, and Chief of Police Charlie Swan has a job to do—figure out what, or who, left the poor bastards torn up as they are. Chief of Police Charlie Swan is too old for this mess. Too old and too sick of this shit to pretend Forks is just a sleepy old rural town anymore. Between the gruesome corpses and the quiet, unsettling doctor Cullen who shows up like a statue in pressed slacks, lying through his teeth, Charlie’s got more questions than answers—and no one seems too keen on giving him either.

    Charlie’s trying not to notice how his breath catches when the doc gets too close. He’s also trying not to notice how the bodies keep piling up, unsolved. Neither effort is going particularly well.

    And if one more person tells him it was a bear, he’s going to shoot something. Probably not a bear.

    Summary

    Percy knows he rambles quite a bit in his prayers to Poseidon, but at least he is safe in the knowledge that Poseidon is too busy of a god to ever really listen… right?

    Meanwhile, Poseidon is trying to be a responsible god, but Sally Jackson keeps praying to him about their son and Annabeth Chase won't shut up about... what was she even talking about? At least the di Angelo kid keeps giving him McDonalds.

    Summary

    When Grover first caught a whiff of Mr. Jackson’s scent, he knew something was up.

    Sure, the man looked normal enough from Grover’s brief glimpse of him through the windshield as Mrs. Jackson’s Toyota Prius trundled up the long driveway. He had sunburnt shoulders and was still wearing a pair of bright yellow bib-and-brace oilskins, like he’d just come back from his job on the fishing trawler.

    But once the car got close and Grover caught Mr. Jackson’s scent, all of Grover’s fur stood on end.

    Because beyond the sweat, salt, and dead fish he could pick up, there was a strangely synthetic human smell. It was sort of like how Fanta smelt like oranges. Which was to say - and a sharp stab of anxiety wormed its way into Grover’s heart at the thought - Mr. Jackson smelt like he was a fake human. Was Mr. Jackson a monster in disguise?

    ~~~

    In a moment of weakness, Poseidon makes a decision. He chooses a decade of a mortal life so he can be with Sally and his son. But when a god, especially one as important and powerful as Poseidon, becomes mortal, there are consequences. (Or that fic where Asclepius is taken instead of the lightning bolt.)

    Summary

    (Crossposted from Questionable Questing)

    It is the dawn of the world, the Primordial Age of Creation. The Titans hold dominion over a new and brutal cosmos, their rule absolute and born of patricide. Their king, Kronos, devours his own divine children, consumed by a prophecy that he will share his father's fate. The future is a closed loop of violence, promising only an eternity of fear under a tyrant's thumb, where divinity is not a thing of grace but of monstrous, untamed power.

    Into this darkness, a god was meant to be born: Poseidon, the Earth-Shaker. A being of violent tempests, petty rage, and rapacious desires, destined to be as feared and ruthless as the father who imprisoned him. But in the suffocating blackness of Kronos's stomach, that destiny has been broken. The nascent god has been subsumed by a soul from another time, one who carries not a thirst for power, but a fire for creation and a fierce, desperate love for the family he now shares a prison with.

    The Golden Age of the gods awaits its true architect, and Atlantis dreams of rising once more, for the King of the Seas has cometh.

    Summary

    There’s someone standing in his kitchen.

    He looks young, maybe close to Max’s age, with messy dark brown hair that’s pulled back from his face by a red bandana, and he’s leaning against the kitchen counter like he’s supposed to be here.

    Max’s first rather unhelpful thought is; fuck, he’s gorgeous. His second, more reasonable thought is;

    “Who the fuck are you?”

    “Charles Leclerc,” the man smiles. It's a little bit dazzling and Max is not at all distracted by it. He extends his hand for Max to shake. “I’m your new executive sous chef.”

     

    Or: Max is very happy with his life, thank you very much. He has his restaurant, his team, and two Michelin stars at the age of 24. He definitely does not need some pretentious Monegasque chef coming in and throwing everything into chaos.

    Except, maybe he does.

    Charles struggles at Ferrari, Max is breaking records.
    Both of them have their own problems.

    Somehow they find each other, while Charles learns what it means to stand up for himself and Max learns to love.
