Clockwork: a child that had WON but is stil yet to weare it.
Alfred *signing*: and you want me. ME. The Halfa of Servitude that got baned of most of theyr powers. The one that is more human liminal than Halfs to just- be guardian of the princeâ˝
Clockwork: I though it prety much. And saw more timelines that i can count. But it was ether you, the Halfa Of Revenge, The one that is More Revenant that halfa. The Creppy Frootloop Halfa, the one that is more Human with Power than a Halfa or you.
Alfred: *thunking it over* why only halfas?
Clockwork: whay, he is one himself. Just you know, more little. That and he did not won his status via intervencion of the universe or pettines of a god. He become one via sacrifice to open a permanent tecnomagical portal.
Alfrd: He WATHâ˝
Clockwork: thst an we are stil debsting of his title. We do not know yet if acllling him the Child Halfa Of Balance, The Protector One, the One That Choise To Protec Both Sides of the veil The male loking Child One, or The One that Is a perfect mix. The one that was cloned and the one that survived are otherers titles that had ben thinked but we dl not like them.
Personaly i like The one that is inmune to time. And Frozbite would like to call him The Great One. Pandora call him Child of Hope and Stars.
Alfred:.... how long had he-
Clockwork: give or take around 2 years. And had been a prince for 1 half year. And before you ask. He needs guardianship. Human one, because he is 14. And this nasty xenofobic human organization killed his parents, and The creppy one wants him for beging the child of his failed love pining.
Alfred: that is troublesome. But i do not think i am the on
Clockwork: contrapoint. Look at this. *chous a picture*
Alfred: BRING THAT CHILD HERE NOW! he is just so tinny! Needs a nutiotianal meal and good sleep and-
After helping her escape from Vlad and preventing her death by melting into goo, instead of going off to explore the world Danielle emotionally latches onto Danny and Valerie as sources of safety and comfort and absolutely refuses to not be by the side of at least one of them at all times, But Danny and Val still have school, homelife, work and ghost fighting to manage and people are starting to take notice of the girl thatâs suddenly always following the two older kids around.
Starfire: What seems to be probleming you friend Phantom?
Phantom, frowning: I think I keep shorting Cyborg out. I don't know why, the rest of the tower seems to be fine, and he was fine up until recently! But suddenly everytime I'm around he runs away saying his systems are on the fritz! What if its my fault? Or I'm hurting him on accident?
Starfire, genuinely concerned: That is the serious problem.
Robin: Oh no...
----
Beast Boy: Dude, you need to stop avoiding him, you're gonna make him think you hate him.
Cyborg, hanging out of his car engine: I know, but this is all new to me! I've never liked a guy before, at least not romantically, and we live together, I'm having a hard time coming to terms with it!
Wes: A problem? On top of us being stranded in a different world at the wrong age and homeless, type of problem?
Jazz: Danny, Dan and Dani were kidnapped
Wes: What? By who?
Jazz: Some orphanage that I'm pretty sure shouldn't be open in this day and age. They've been gathering kids with black hair and blue eyes!
Wes: They still have orphanages? Weren't those closed in the 50s?
Jazz: They were slowly phased out, and by the 80s they weren't around, but now is not the time for history!
Wes: It's always important to know history. How will we ever learn from-
Jazz: They're trying to sell them to some rich guy who looks for kids who have thier characteristics! They call them Wayne Adobition Bait!
Wes: Wayne? Who is that?
Jazz: I don't know! Apparently, the man likes kids with black hair and blue eyes. And the orphanage needs money, so they're hoping Wayne pays top dollar for them!
Wes: Jazz. Relax. Even if the man does buy them, we're talking about three Halfas. Wayne is the one in danger, not the Halfas.
Jazz: Yeah but the Halfas are all under the age of ten! They can't defend themselves!
Wes: I mean, yeah, Dan is in the body of a ten-year-old; Danny is nine, and Dani-with-a-I is the sassiest six-year-old I've have ever seen but don't forget they are all mentally much older. You went from nineteen to twelve and you still have your grown mind.
Jazz: Not really! My emotions are all over the place- I'm losing to my kid biology! My brain literally undeveloped!
Wes: Mine did too
Jazz: Oh yeah, you're also twelve now. How are you handling things so well? Hasn't it taken a toll on you?
Wes: I've always been like this
Jazz: .....That's... concerning, but we have to handle the evil orphanage first; then we can talk about your mental state.
Wes: I wasn't aware my mental state was bad. What's wrong with my mental state?
Jazz: Exactly! We will rescue the Dannies!
Wes: Answer the question Jazz.
Jazz: That's a great idea! We should try to get to Wayne first, make him adopt us, and escape with the Dannies when they offer them. If he doesn't go for us, we can dye our hair! Let's do this!
Wes: I really don't want to. I shouldn't have even been thrown through the portal with you guys. I just happened to be the waiter at your table when the ghost attacked. I'm not part of the team.
Wdym Nico thinks Percy wants to kill him (even if all Percy ever did to him was desperately trying to bring him to safety).
AND
Percy thinks Nico wants to kill him (even if Nico saved him from the skeleton soldiers at the end of tTC despite all his "I hate you" and "I wish you were dead". Percy even came up with an idea that Nico wants to exchange his life for Bianca's, bc Minos said they need someone "who tricked death" for the exchange â and Percy feels like it should've been him who died).
And neither of them actually wants the other dead.
It is an unspoken rule among the more powerful members of the hero community that whenever they are fighting someone who is significantly below their pay grade, they are obligated to defeat them in a way that has style.
Superman fighting a random thug with a machine gun? He has to walk slowly through the gunfire, letting them empty the entire clip.
Flash fighting some random scientist that blew up a building? He has to rebuild the entire building in the same quarter of a second it takes him to knock the criminal out.
Phantom fights a big ugly monster that's more bark than bite? He has to blast it with a single finger to knock it down.
Did any of them ever verbalize this requirement? No. Do any of them have a way to justify their flexing and styling on their enemies? Kinda. Did Batman hate it? Yes. But they are convinced it's because he can't afford to style on his enemies the same way they can, even if his casual over-the-shoulder punches to knock out thugs trying to sneak up on him is a pretty damn close approximation.

Danny/Dick, Key, "And then I said goodbye or she'll break my heart'
âDick, no,â Wally hissed.
âDick, yes.â
All of them turned to look at Raven in surprise. She just shrugged and gestured towards the new hero, Phantom. He was talking with Specter. She said something that made him throw his head back in laughter. It showed off his sharp teeth spectacularly.
âSomeone needs to⌠what was the phrase for it?â Raven asked, head tilted. âAh, âhit thatâ.â
âRaven,â Wally gasped, aghast.
She gestured again at Phantom. His his drifted away like smoke and his legs were less than solid. He felt like storm about to break.
âYeah, no, Iâm with Raven,â Gar said. His chin was perched on his hand as he watched Phantom with what was basically heart eyes. âUnless heâs into sharing?â
âOh come on, you have to at least let me shoot my shot!â Dick whined. âYou two already have your whole eldritch thing. Leave some for the rest of us.â
âDick, no,â Wally said, again. âIâm just trying to keep you in one piece.â
Dick pressed his hands together with a little gesture. âCounterpoint: he makes falling apart seem so good.â
Wally just sighed and dropped his head onto the table with a thunk.
Danny, de-age to a seven-year-old: Hello. Would you care for a shoe shine?
Bruce: ....Yes, of course. How much?
Danny: Oh, whatever you can spare. *setting down a portable shining bench* Please put your feet here.
Bruce: Of course. Have you been doing this long?
Danny: a couple of weeks. I'm getting really good at it.
Bruce: You are. These look brand new. *hands him a $ 100 bill*
Danny: Wow! Thank you!
Bruce: Of course. Do you have a safe place to sleep?
Danny: Nope.
Bruce: .....would you like one?
Danny: Sure!
Bruce: Really?
Danny: Yeah, if you're offering!
Bruce: Its never been this easy before....somethings off. Aren't you the less bit wary of me?
Danny: Nah, I can sense people's intentions. You're not a creep trying to get a kid to a second location. You just want to give me a safe place off the streets.
Bruce: .....Are you a Meta?
Danny: I don't belive in organized religion.
Bruce: That's not....you know what, nevermind. Have you had something to eat?
Danny: I found a half finished donut in the trash earlier.
Bruce: Oh. No. Let's get you some dinner.
Danny: I'm buying! *waving money Bruce gave him* I had a good day of work!
Both had meet during so many time travel things to the point that both of them started calling eatch other when they are about to do some changed in the timeline or when they suspect someting.
So it thanks to this that Flash belived in the newly named Red Robin when the kid said that Batman was in the past.
It was also thanks to a mesage sended by the Time Mentor of Phantom that he could only help the kid with some things. Like giving them special meds and distract the leage so the bird could rescue theyr dad.
It was also this friendshup that made Flash aware of the Anti-ecto act and put a end of that before it started.
But now- well they did not have time to do some manbo jambo, save the universe, give a head ups to the cientific and save the anonimus of the kid in the heroes database.
Flash was just about to run to have some extra time to beat up the baddie of the month, when a green note apear in front and made him trople.
"Hey Batman, be ready to do a lot of damage control. Im calling the med bay in advice And DO NOT SHOOT ANITHING THAT COMES FROM A GREEN PORTAL"
And a portal did opened. Out of it comes a mildly injured and glowing with so much emotions Phantom. A hurt and pised our Phantom.
Flash knows instantanly.
And just pointed to the big bad of the week, stoping the teammates that wanted to run and help the kid and or scole them.
"Someone mesed with his grave. The kid is pissed of. And helping him indulge induging on one of his Obsesions can acelerate his healing. That, and he needs to ler oit some fumes."
Damian, raising his eyebrow, unimpressed: What about them?
Jon: Well, you know a lot about them so...
Damian: Spit it out, dancing around the subject, as you are, is unbecoming!
Jon: Th-Theres a guy I really really like and he loves dogs, and is even looking into adopting one or getting one from a good breeder, and I offered to help him because I just wanted an excuse to talk to him! But I don't know anything about dogs! I mean, there's Krypto but does he even really count as a dog? I guess also Titus and Ace but I'm only around them when I'm with you, and all I ever do I pet them!
Damian: You can not be serious.
Jon: This dog thing is really important Damian! Apprentantly he couldn't have any pets when he lived with his parents, but there was this wild dog that he would play with sometimes. He, like, really loves dogs, he gets so excited when he so much as catches a glimpse of them! His eyes get all soft and his smile is so-so bright! And he is, like, obsessed with Krypto whenever Krypto is around, its so cute!
Damian, less judgemental: You are serious.
Jon: I just want his experience with his first dog to be perfect, yaknow? Sorry, I know I'm being unreasonable.
Damian: What is he looking for?
Jon: Huh?
Damian: This guy, what is he looking for with a dog? Does he have a specific breed in mind? Any allergies? What is his house like? Does he have a yard or live in an appartment? Does he live near a park or forest if he doesn't have a yard? Does he have any physical limitations? How much time can he alot to grooming? If we're going to help him, we need to know this information so we can help him properly.
Jon, tearfully: Damian! You're the bestest friend ever!*hugs him*
Damian, embarrassed: Unhand me!
Bonus
*6 weeks later*
Jon, postmission: Agh what are we going to do with this beast? Danny is going to be here in 5 minutes! He can't see this thing! He'll freak out!
Damian, pouting: If father would just see reason and let me keep him, we wouldn't be in this situation.
Jon: What even is it? It looks kinda dogish? Maybe it already has an owner?
Beast in question: *towering golden colored animal with a wrinkled dog like snout, massive dog like paws, scales going up its limbs, long, slightly curled fangs, a curly lion-like mane, and a long curly furred tail*
Jon: I don't see a collar, do you?
Damian: No. Perhaps-
Beast: *perks up*
Danny: Hey, sorry I'm a bit early, astronomy club let out early because Michael was stupid and did a back flip off the- *stops as he makes eye contact with the "beast"*
Jon: Uhhh Danny, listen this this is-is uh-
Damian: A statue. I had it commissioned and it just arrived-
Danny: How in all the afterlives did you find a Fu Dog puppy in America!*eyes glittering in awe*
Damian: Fu Dog?
Jon: Puppy?!
Danny: Hi baby! Oh you're just the cutest thing aren't you?
Fu Puppy: *wags and shoves his nose in Danny's hand, having decided Danny wasn't an evil spirit*
Danny: So how did you find him? Fu Dog breeders are suuuper touchy about where they send their puppies, they're almost unseen outside of China! *happy petting the massive puppy, ignorant to the bewildered looks he was getting*
Jon: Oh uh we jus-
Damian: Jon told me you were in search of a dog. My father has a friend that pulled some strings. He was supposed to be a surprise, but due to some miscommunication the puppy was delivered early.
Danny, eyes soft: Really? Jon thats the nicest thing anyone's ever done for me.
Jon, blushing: Oh uh it was-it was nothing!
Danny: Oh but this must have cost a fortune! How much do I owe you?
Damian: No need, my father happily payed, it barely made a dent. You can repay us by taking good care of him.
Danny: If you're sure. *laughs as the puppy licks him*
Jon: So, uh, not to be a party pooper but how is he going to fit in your house?
Danny, laughing: Uh, spirit shifting silly! All mythical dogs are able to do it, its how they blend in with their owners when they're masquerading as human or living. Its taught to all puppies as soon as they're old enough to be taught, since its so important to our part of the worlds secrecy. Watch, *clicks his tongue to grab the puppy's attention* P̸ÍÍÍĚŚuĚ´ĚÍĚĚ Ěp̸ÍÍÍÍĚĄÍp̸ÍĚÍĚ ÍĚ yĚľÍÍ̞̍ÍÍ,Ě´ÍÍÍĚźÍ mĚ¸Í ÍÍĚşÍĚaĚľÍÍÍĚťÍs̸ÍÍĚĚÍĚŤk̸ĚÍÍĚĚ.Ě´ĚÍÍĚ Í
Fu Puppy: *starts shimmering gold, and shinks down. the light dissipates revealing a tiny apricot colored Shar-Pei puppy*
Danny: See? *happily picks up his new puppy* Its fine!
So I had an idea for an unusual twist on the godly reincarnation idea. So in my opinion, Aphrodite's portrayal in PJO is rather mixed. Sure, it has some really interesting elements. However, aspects of it are quite disappointing. Especially how's she only shown as the goddess of love. There's no sign of her warlike aspects.
Which has given me an idea. What if Aphrodite has been neglecting her Areia aspect? What if this got to the point whare it chose to sever itself from her as a survival mechanism? Except, Aphrodite herself doesn't realize that's what happened. From her perspective, she simply lost that domain due to neglect.
Meanwhile, the essence of her Areia aspect falls from Olympus. Far too weak to sustain itself, it soon latches onto the first person it finds: Sally Jackson. Nine months later, she gives birth to a daughter: Cypris Aria Jackson. (I got the idea for the name Cypris from one of Aphrodite's epithets. Thought it was rather fitting. lol)
Aka: Fem!Percy is the reincarnation of Aphrodite Areia and has spent the last twelve years evolving into her own person. Dionysus is the first to figure this out and has no idea how to handle it.
oooooh
you have such amazing ideas I love it!
(not to be weird but itâs ideas like this that make me wish I could crawl inside your mind and hang out sometimes)
Dionysus stares at Aphrodite Areia/Cypris Aria Jackson and dearly wishes for a drink. This is the weirdest version of the Greek-Roman schism (and heâs not sure if thatâs what it is) he has ever seen. However, itâs not his problem.
Aphrodite can deal with this rogue aspect of hers that is running around pretending to be a demigod. Probably to spend time with her children (still itâs a weird way to go about it but Dionysus wonât judge her for it).
Dionysus isnât getting paid to deal with this.
Aeria gets upset and offended when her children are treated as afterthoughts who canât fight (even if she doesnât know theyâre hers). She may have went a little overboard inspiring Cabin 10 to take part in Capture the Flag as the children of Aphrodite found something inside them waking up and the desire to fight took over them and they actually won the game instead of the Ares, Athena or Hermes cabins.
having Aphrodite Aeria fighting Ares on the beach is going to be very interesting, and he would absolutely have picked up on the fact that part of Aphrodite he hasnât seen in far too long is standing in front of him, even with Kronos manipulating him (he probably thinks itâs just a new game sheâs playing) and plays along. (He would probably go with them to the water park make sure this part of Aphrodite who seems to think she is mortal doesnât set off any traps)
The fight on the beach essentially counts as foreplay in Aresâs mind, heâs thrilled when she lands a hit on him, encouraging her to do it again. Hopefully Cypris remembers who she is or this could get really weird and potentially embarressing or make Poseidon or someone try to kill him.
Cypris going to Olympus is going to be a disaster once Zeus finds out what is going on.
(So I read @j-a-n-e--d-o-e's comment and it's given me ideas.)
Dionysus observes Cypris for the week leading up to the quest. Despite wanting nothing to do with this, he does it anyway. Something about this was... off. Aphrodite has never been affected by the Greek-Roman schism. So, it was very strange for her to suddenly have a schism. Plus, Areia was a little too convincing with her demigod act.
Things change when Poseidon successfully claims her. For that's when Dionysus realized it wasn't an act. Aphrodite's rogue aspect was mortal. Not just mortal, she was a demigod, a daughter of Poseidon. One who deeply loved her mother, Sally. Suddenly, this felt more like his own situation with Zagreus.
Once again, Dionysus wished for a drink. This was going to be a mess.
After decades of no one taking Cabin 10 seriously, Camp Half-Blood received a nasty wake-up call. They had forgotten there was a reason the Spartans worshiped Aphrodite as a war goddess. And the children of Aphrodite had given them a harsh reminder of it. Of course, this did lead to some side effects. Quite a few children of Ares developed a crush on the Aphrodite kids after having their asses kicked. Among them was Clarisse, who had a bisexual awakening in the form of her friend Silena.
It took Ares longer than he liked to realize Areia was mortal. A mortal who was only twelve years old. A mortal girl who had no idea she was Aphrodite's missing Areia aspect. A mortal girl who's grown into her own person. When he realizes his, Ares promptly banishes all the thoughts he's been having.
At this point, he is too busy fighting Kronos' influence, which he's finally become aware of. Which is trying to goad him into killing Cypris. He is unable to give her the truth that she deserves to hear. So instead, he warns her to bring Grover and Annabeth with her to Olympus, for she will need their support. Then he leaves to find Apollo.
Oh, things are a complete disaster when Cypris goes to Olympus. She, along with Zeus and Poseidon, discovers she is Aphrodite Aeria. It soon leads to a full council meeting. One that even Hades and Hestia are told to attend.
Cypris, however, freaks out when Zeus proposes forcing her back into Aphrodite. Even if she didn't completely disappear, her individuality would be gone. A fact that terrifies her.
This, of course, sends the meeting into chaos. For now, the gods of Olympus had an unprecedented ethical dilemma. An aspect of a god that had separated from the whole and grown into her own person. One that didn't want to rejoin the rest of herself. To give up her own individuality.
(Anyone else getting Tuvix vibes from this? This kinda feels similar, but with the opposite problem. lol)
Just had an idea! What if Cypris' individuality had some unexpected effects? Hephestus is a decent guy overall, yet Aphrodite never gave him a fair chance. Perhaps she feels an odd guilt for how the Goddess of Love treated him. So when she learns the truth, she does something that Aphrodite never did: she apologizes to Hephestus.
This could create a lot of conflict between her and Aphrodite. It could even make Cypris more reluctant to rejoin with her. Plus, you would have Hephestus being intrigued by Cypris. (Is it obvious that I feel bad for the guy? XD)
Also, I've got to imagine that Grover and Annabeth are freaking out when they learn their friend is a "rogue" aspect of Aphrodite.
Fem!Percy, calling out of the blue at 1 a.m.: hiiiii darling <3 So I was showering, and caught my reflection, and I was like DAMN I need a girlfriend right fucking now to appreciate the beauty I suddenly saw in myself.
Fem!Luke, her forcefully platonic bestie who immediately pick ups her night calls, before she stops herself: can I volunteer?
Fem!Percy, who literally just called to chat:
Fem!Luke, sweating nervously, shaking in terror, mentally dying:
Fem!Percy: hOLY FUCK it wasn't even a plan and it still somehow worked OMG YES YOU TOTALLY CAN can we go on a date tomorrow pretty please?
(All) Big Three kids (+ Male! Thalia) accident end up in Ancient Greece
When Theo, Jason, Percy, Tyson, Nico, Bianca, and Hazel end up in Ancient Greece theyâre all split up into three groups dictated by who their godly father is.
So it goes like this, Theo and Jason are having a reunion and freaking out and Theo is cursing Beryl out over abandoning Jason (and mentally cussing Hera out). Theyâre attracting attention from the people around them as Theo is taking his anger out on the monsters that come their way, Jason is trying to calm him down and think of how theyâre going to go back home. But both are summoning storms and lighting, sparking whispers and rumors about two extremely powerful sons of Zeus (from the sane mother) who channel power from their fatherâs domain. Zeus sees the storms and lighting used by Theo and Jason, he looks to see where this is all coming from and sees two channeling lighting like itâs nothing and starts getting flashbacks to his early days
Percy and Tyson freak out as soon as they wake up in the middle of nowhere and realize where theyâre at and Percy is actively crashing out at his situation, causing a storm in the background while Tyson tries to calm him down. Tyson suggests sticking to the coast and asking their father for help, Percy isnât too sure on the idea actually working but since Tysonâs idea is the only thing they have he agrees on it. Poseidon hears two prayers for help from two threads with echoes his power and looks for where the prayers came from. Heâs surprised to see a young cyclops and a young man with his features praying to him (donât know if theyâd go to one of Poseidonâs temples), he looks at their scents and is shocked to see the power radiating from them, and theyâre also his.
Meanwhile Nico wakes up and sees a living Bianca in front of him and doesnât know what to do, heâs also probably crying and breaking down. Bianca doesnât know whatâs going on but sheâs happy to see Nico again, at least now she can hug him again. Hazel is trying to help her brother not crash out, sheâs worried over whatâs going on due to Biancaâs apparent resurrection and then being stuck in a strange place. However she also gets pulled into a big sibling hug by Bianca, whoâs both surprised and happy to have a younger sister. They decide to take the risk of going to visit the Oracle to get answers, unlike the other two groups they donât actively draw attention via creating storms. However Nicoâs shadow traveling and Bianca trying to learn it so Nico doesnât have to be the only one doing it (and getting exhausted) draws some shocked expressions whenever they end up in the wrong town or city. Bianca accidentally summons an army of skeletons once while testing out the untapped Child of Hades powers that she never got into while alive. People murmur about the strange trio made up of two young women (one far too pale for a normal person with a bow and arrows in her possession and another with mesmerizing golden eyes with a golden sword in her hand) and a young man (too pale and with too dark eyes, a black sword strapped to hip). The death seem to take orders from them, with the shadows being their favored way of travel. Hades is confused when the terrified prayers from mortals stark coming, actively promising that his three children (two girls and one boy) would be treated kindly while they stayed in their town
A funny dilemma Theo and Jason come across is that Jason cannot speak Ancient Greekâhe can somewhat understand it but he can in no way speak it. Which leads to a merchant seeing him eyeing something and asking if he'd like to buy it but Theo is preoccupiedâ
Jason Internally: Fuck! Okay! Calm down and think! Modern english would be too weird! So what is the oldest language you know!?
Jason: ...*starts speaking in Latin*
Theo: PFTâ
â˘â˘â˘5 minutes Laterâ˘â˘â˘
Theo & Jason: *Back on the road*
Theo: ...You know you're gonna have to respond to everyone we come across in Latin now right...?
Jason: ...*sigh* yup...
â˘â˘â˘â˘
Jason (In Latin): Why is he calling me his son? I'm not his son!?
Zeus: What's wrong with his mouth?
Theo: We...weren't raised together, it would have attracted too much attention...
Zeus: Ah...
Theo (In Broken Latin): The split hasn't happened yet, sooo yeah...you're his kid...
Jason: ...but I don't wanna be his kid...
Theo (In Greek): *Sad sigh* Me neither brother...
â˘â˘â˘â˘
Jason (In Latin): *Standing over a monster carcass* Brother! It bleeds!
Theo: *Equally shocked and noticing he himself blood covered* That it does!
Zeus Internally: Ohhhh I may have to end these two if Hera doesn'tâ
â˘â˘â˘Meanwhileâ˘â˘â˘
Poseidon: ...How did I miss twoâwait what are you two doing together?
Percy: *In the most "duh" sounding tone* We're brothers...???
Tyson: We're sorry dad, we wouldn't have bothered you but Mom isn't here for us to ask for help.
Poseidon: You two have the same mother...!?
Percy: Basically? I mean, we kinda found him in a box.
Poseidon: ...I'm done questioning thisâ
â˘â˘â˘Meanwhileâ˘â˘â˘
Ancient Greek Commoners: *Minding their business*
Hades' Kid: *Crawl out of the Shadows like fucked up Gremlins*
Commoners: "HOLY SHITâ" "WHAT THE FUCKâ!?" "Can't go one day in this country without some magic bullshit happeningâ"
Bianca: I think I'm getting better at shadow travel!
Nico: Yup, definitely...!
Hazel: *Throwing up in a bush because she "rode" with Bianca and her "driving" was god awful*
â˘â˘â˘â˘
Bianca: *Blood covered* Hey guys the monsters bleed here :D!
Hazel: Whoa!
Nico: Cool!
Ancient Greeks: *Burning a fuckton of offerings to Hades*
â˘â˘â˘â˘
Persephone: *Was/is mad but Hades is panicking so bad it's making her question if he was actually unfaithful*
Persephone: Darling...You Alrightâ?
Hades: The math isn't mathing beloved! The math isn't mathiiiing (;â;)!
He didn't really know what the cause of his brokenness was, just that he clearly and obviously was. Even before he died, he couldn't see color.
Unlike Jazz, whose soulmates began with their parents and continued to appear into her life and then stay in her life, Danny appeared to be soulmateless if it weren't for the fact that he still couldn't see color. Jazz, and everyone else in Amity, had the full rainbow and then some available to her before she even made it to middle school.
Jazz's soulmates were an easy and short list. Mom, Dad, her friend Kyle Weston, and her friend Spike. She had met Kyle in kindergarten, and Spike in third grade. All of her soulmates were platonic and familial, though there was still a chance that she was seeing darker shades of colors than they're supposed to be - it was more common than not for a romantic soulmate to brighten up the world that someone could already see.
Danny was in high school. And all he saw was grey, grey, and more grey. Occasionally, he could even tell that he was looking at black. It was unusual. He was broken. What else was he supposed to understand from that?
"Maybe your soulmates are somewhere else? Like, your soulmates are all French or something," Tucker suggested, offhand.
"Maybe," Danny pretended to agree. Frankly, though, he wasn't holding out hope.
He was already dead, after all.
If someone's soulmate passed, they just lost the ability to see whatever colors their soulmate had given them. Danny doubted that him being dead before meeting his soulmates would affect that specific phenomenon in any meaningful way. He would just never know.
So why the hell could he suddenly see this- this- this beautiful color after meeting some dude? He didn't seem to have noticed the change of colors, rushing off with a bright apology for running into Danny, as Danny's whole world flipped on its side. He- he had no clue how to find that person again. What was he supposed to do now?
Maybe... maybe start with googling what this color is.
Blue. Blue was the color of the sky, of oceans, of brightly colored birds and butterflies. It was so beautiful. Danny's eyes were blue! Danny decided just then that blue was his favorite color.
Who knew he'd finally find a soulmate after moving to Gotham? Maybe, just maybe, he'd find his other soulmates here too.
He shook his head; Danny knew better than to hope. Danny was dead. He can't have soulmates, now. Even if Danny could now see colors- or, well, one color, that didn't mean whoever was connected to him could also see their missing color(s). So even if Danny was connected to them, they... probably weren't connected to him.
...
"Sorry, Jay, I got held up at wor-" Dick trailed off, looking at his little brother's eyes.
They weren't that green before. He knows they weren't; after meeting Damian, Dick could see green. They could all see green after meeting Damian. Jason and Damian's eyes were both an olive green, only a slight shade difference between them, everyone in the family agreed. Not... not this neon bright green.
Jason's gaze snapped to Dick from where he'd been glaring at someone across the diner, and the brightness dulled. It didn't go away, but calmed down. No longer seemed like it was lighting Jason's face up. "What?"
"I..." Dick paused, mind racing. If Jason didn't know why Dick was staring at him, then nothing new has happened on his end. That means... "I think I ran into another soulmate."
"Do you know who you maybe ran into? Or, like, have a description?" Tim asked, twisting the Bat-chair back and forth with a deadpan expression, "I can't really do much without a description, you know."
"Well, no," Dick admitted, before gesturing aimlessly, "I figured you could probably just look at security cameras or something until you found someone that acts differently after I interact with them."
Tim sighed, looking burdened with the entire world, before doing a quick 180 to face the Bat-computer. "Do you, at the very least, have a time frame?"
"Uh... I mean," Dick shrugged, "I hadn't seen either Jason or Damian since two weeks ago, so..."
Tim's head hung down, before muttering something under his breath and pulling the Bat-keyboard closer to himself. "Gimme, like, three days or something. I'll skim through the footage I can find, see if I can find them."
"You're the best, baby bird!" Dick wrapped his arms around Tim's shoulders, Bat-chair included in the hug.
"Yeah, yeah," Tim grumbled, ignoring the hug from his older brother/soulmate.
It took less than a day for Tim to decide that he needed a break - because, man, Dick interacted with a lot of people every day. He could rule out most of the people that're working at stores and cafes and restaurants that Dick frequently visited, unless they were new at the job - luckily, not many new workers at those locations in the past month. There were quite a few people who reacted strangely after meeting Dick, but it was clear that they were simply reacting to having talked to an attractive person - gross. And really, he could probably ignore the people Dick talked to at his job, too. It's not like there were any new students or new parents in Dick's classes.
"Ah, thanks," Tim offhandedly said, meeting blue eyes of the person who'd held the door for him.
"No problem," the teen was distracted by something on his phone, so Tim didn't bother him much longer.
Really, there were too many candidates for Dick's new soulmate, and it was just a massive pain to try to figure it out.

Danny shot off his last reply to the group chat from his friends back in Amity, glad that Val had managed to catch Boxy before Danny's parents or the government did. Sam had volunteered to put Boxy back through the portal, and Tuck was currently sending Danny's parents on a wild goose chase around the city. It was...
Well, it wasn't exactly a good alternative to Danny being there, but like... at least they had it under control, from what he could tell.
Putting his phone away, Danny looked up to admire the blues and- and- he had another color. What was that color? Wait, when did he meet his soulmate?? Did he actually meet someone today?? The only person he'd interacted with was a barista and he probably held the door open for some people, but. But. But anyone he actually noticed didn't seem to change his vision any?
He whipped his phone back out, googling for that website that provides color names for the newly soulbound for the second time this week. His hands were shaky and- and weren't grey? But it was a dull version of that color so they weren't exactly that color- yellow. He... he must be missing a color or two, to be able to know what color his skin is. But... yellow was the color of sunlight? And, and it was the color of sunflowers, and bees, and ducks, and cheese - yellow was so- so cool!
What else was yellow? And... and how did yellow and blue interact with each other?
Billy batson fighting in his normal/child form, if you know any fanfics with this premise, please please do comment them.
Man I really wanna read a fanfic with this exact premise!,
Billy batson due to being so dependent on his Shazam is force by the wizard(and the gods especially Zeus to make him fight villains without becoming an adult)
Billy is of course will be given a mask of some sorts(maybe like robins situation or maybe he would just not wear one in general)(magic stuff~]
Billy gets a hero outfit that would look very similar to captain marvel jr and Mary/miss marvel.
I also like the idea of Billy getting a magical wand or staff(I love this idea ok) in his normal and hero forms because why not? And it would be use for more concentrated uses of magic and magical spells
BUT here the best part, imagine the villains or his rogues reaction to meeting billy or even better! THE JUSTICE LEAGUE.
the Jl would just assume that Billy is just another on of captain marvels kids, just with a magic wand thingy
(um maybe we can call him soldier captain marvel or kid marvel or the heir of the champion of magic or something. It really up to you)
Superman going to fawcett city after hearing of a highly dangerous villain. Billy after defeating a rogue of his with the power of a spell he just learned
BILLY: ah that was very troublesome
SUPERMAN: what are you doing here child?
BILLY: oh, hi Superman!- wait, oh yeah Iâm a kid
SUPERMAN: fighting villains are very dangerous,
BILLY: ânervously whistlingâ
BILLY: yeah, I know. But I was the one who defeated them. All myself
SUPERMAN: ah, are you marvels son?
SUPERMAN: The one miss marvel and jr keep mentioning
BILLY: â awkward silenceâ
BILLY: thinking, I, um yeah this is awkward
BILLY: ah yeah sure,
SUPERMAN: smiles
SUPERMAN: come with me to the tower, would that be alright with you?
BILLY: um yeah sure
SUPERMAN: I didnât get your name, what is your name?
BILLY: kid marvel.
BILLY: thinking, yeah Iâm f#cked
SUPERMAN: alright let get going now, kid
at the tower,
GREEN LANTERN: whoa, I didnât know cap had another kid
FLASH: haha yeah, Hal donât get to close. Your gonna make the kid feel awkward
GREEN LANTERN: yeah, my bad
BILLY: it ok, Mr green lantern
BILLY: thinking, god it feels weird calling him Mr.
GREEN LANTERN: so what were you doing there?
BILLY: fighting them, I defeated them
long silence, 1 hour later
FLASH: hey guys, turns out cap let his kid fight a dangerous rogue
BATMAN: ? Isnât that normal, miss marvel and captain marvel jr fight their rogues all the time
BATMAN: even though I think it highly dangerous, captain marvel is there when it get too dangerous for them
SUPERMAN: no, no Batman. Flash is right!
Jl looking at Superman for what he means
BATMAN: âsilenceâ(it means yeah sure go ahead)
SUPERMAN: when I came there I only saw kid marvel there by himself, and he claims he was the one who defeated the rogue
WONDERWOMAN: mhm⌠you donât say
SUPERMAN: and I saw no signs of captain marvel being there,
BATMAN: how interesting(writes in contingency plans on captain marvel that he may be neglecting his son kid marvel)
GREEN LANTERN: as I think about, he looks way younger then Mary and jr like ten years old
(Billy malnourished)(or maybe when Mary and Freddy transform they get turned into 14-15 years old even though they like younger then that)
FLASH: who would have expected sun shine man of having favorites,(referring to Mary and Freddy)
SUPERMAN: well, I believe it would be best if we give captain marvel a class on being a good father to all of his children,
Jl agreeing
Billy who was eavesdropping, alongside Mary and freddy
