Summary
“Why are you looking at skateboards?” asks Luke.“Maybe Kronos wants us to get a skateboard.”
Luke presses a hand on the top of Percy’s head and physically turns him away from the window display.
“Does Kronos want us to get a skateboard,” he says.
“…No.”
Luke wants to know what the hell Percy thinks he’s doing. Percy wants Luke to trip and fall over the side of the yacht. They are, as always, at an impasse.Series

Summary
“What is it?” Grover asks, “What’s with that weird look on your face?”
“Just trying to figure out if turning me in will get us enough bounty money to buy our way to LA.” Percy says, craning his neck towards the news van.
“We are not turning you in to the police.” Grover presses his head back into the alleyway.
“Why not?” Percy says. They could use a bit of cash. “You guys can just break me out afterwards, right?”
Annabeth looks like she’s considering it.
“No, guys,” Grover says. “No.”
If Percy has to spend the rest of his life cleaning up after the gods, then he might as well start from the beginning.Series

“Right,” Tim says slowly. “That’s...logical. All things considered, ‘Nightwing frees the nipple’ isn’t the worst headline that’s ever been published about us.”
Dick shows Damian Mean Girls. It does not go well. -

Summary
“Wait.” Peter looks up. “What?”
“We’re going to Avengers Compound,” Ned repeats dutifully.
Yeah.
That’s what Peter thought he said.
“Nope.” Peter drops his book onto the table. It shudders. “I’m not going. I’m not— I’m gonna call in sick. I’m gonna call in dead.”
In which Midtown’s Academic Decathlon team inadvertently ends Spider-Man’s whole career.

Summary
Tony’s standing in the entranceway, looking terrible. His face is scratched, and he still has the Iron Man suit on. It’s covered in dust.
"May,” Tony says hoarsely.
“Where’s Peter?” May asks. She steps out of the doorway to let him in.
Tony doesn’t move. Instead, he says, “…You’ll want to sit down for this.”
Tony thinks that Peter dying is the worst thing that could happen.Then he stays dead.
(Set between “to win this fight, side by side” and “when the sun and moon and stars are gone,” overlapping with the latter)

If people won’t stop saying that personal loyalty is Percy’s fatal flaw, then he might as well show them how fatal it can be.

Summary
“Merlin, what is in your hair?” Gaius asks - rather judgmentally, Merlin thinks. It’s not as though Gaius can turn into a bird, making his opinion irrelevant. Everyone’s opinions shall now be irrelevant to him unless they can turn into birds, he decides. He puts a hand to his hair and feels a leaf.
“For your information I spent a lot of time in a tree last night.” He says, not finding it in him to feel embarrassed.
“A tree?!” Arthur exclaims, and Merlin finds it in him to feel embarrassed. Oh no. He’s standing by the door, and in his haze Merlin had not noticed him. His blue eyes are wide and bright and his grin is spreading across his face already. Merlin closes his eyes, dreading what he knows is coming.
(So this is a very canon-inaccurate sort of re-telling, with some big divergences, minus a dragon or prophecy or two)

Summary
Will, Arthur Pendragon goes to my school.
What kind of arseholes whose last name is Pendragon name their kid Arthur? Fucking monarchist twats
Nope
Nope?
I mean, I imagine his father is a monarchist considering the fact that he’s the bloody king of England.
Well fuck
When Merlin gets a scholarship to Camlann Academy, one of the most prestigious secondary schools in all of Britain, he seizes the chance. But when he finds himself in class with the actual honest to god Prince of Wales, he thinks maybe he should have taken his chances at Ealdor Secondary, leaky roofs and all.
When Arthur finds out he’s about to be outed on an international scale, he does the only rational thing there is to do: ignore his feelings for the cute boy in his class. Morgana doesn’t agree that it’s entirely rational.
