    Summary

    "She’d fallen asleep with a desperate sort of anxiety clawing at her throat, her nose pressed into the space where his shoulder met his neck.

    Three days later, he was on a plane back to his son.

    They never talked about it."

    ---

    What if the night Ted spent at Rebecca's went a little differently?

    Summary

    The official story is this: Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase, just two months shy of their seventh wedding anniversary, hurtle off a cliff on a lonely mountain road. A tragic accident, a sharp turn taken too quickly. Their 2023 Prius was found buried under debris, three hundred feet below where witnesses claim they fell. Paramedics declared them dead upon arrival, suffering blunt force trauma as their car collapsed with them inside.

     

    The real story is this: Percy and Annabeth watch as Hecate’s children create perfect duplicates of them that are promptly hurled off a cliff. Percy loved that Prius.

     

    (Or: at the end of the Titan War, Zeus offered Percy immortality. Percy was mistaken in thinking it was an actual choice.)

    Summary

    Rebecca knows what she’s supposed to do. What "good girls" do. Stay a little longer, dance with her drunk best friend. Then go to her own room, shake off this behaviour they’ve been indulging in all weekend and go to sleep. He’s still going to leave in the morning. She’s still going to stay. And yet every cell in her body is begging to follow him. To take what she wants. She feels unmoored.

     

    ———

    Rebecca, Ted, a wedding weekend at an estate and the consequences that immediately follow.

    Summary

    “Hey, Dad,” Henry says then, a twinkle in his eye. “Did you know that a private jet can get you here in less time than flying commercial?”

    “You been watchin’ The Parent Trap again, Hen?” Ted asks distractedly as he tugs at the zipper on his backpack. “Because that sure sounds like a line from it.”

    “Actually, I think you’ll find that they’re talking about the Concorde, not a private jet,” comes the reply, but not from Henry.
