Stories by ExceedinglyPeculiarChick

January 15th, 2010: A not-so-average Friday in the life of Annabeth Chase. With her boyfriend missing, a warship to build, and the Stolls on the loose, it's a wonder she hasn't murdered anybody yet. / Dedicated to MostDefinitelyFlorentine. Based on Twisted Biscuit's "Just a Random Tuesday".
In which Leo sings an awkward song in the shower, and the other six prophecy demigods question many of their life decisions. / Chapter 11: "She probably looked beautiful, too, but Percy didn't notice because he was too scared of the positively murderous expression on her face."

"The loneliest moment in someone's life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly." —The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald
Jason wakes up one seemingly ordinary morning, only to discover that 1) a girl on Nico's floor is apparently watching zombie porn; 2) Leo busted his lip in a tragic twerking accident; and 3) Reyna and Gwen fell asleep in a closet during a desperate search for Mentos and popcorn. / Alcohol and demigods? What could POSSIBLY go wrong? T for swearing.

Nobody says anything; they watch as Clarisse chases the Stolls in circles around the fire because they've stolen Maimer from her, and Leo's pretty sure that soon there's going to be punching involved—and it definitely will not be pretty. / Immediately after the war, Leo learns what it's really like to have a family.

T for slight swearing.
"I do have neighbors and I do have to speak to them occasionally and if I'm talking to my cousin in the hallway in the middle of the night wearing nothing but my boxers, they're going to start thinking I'm not normal." / In which Jason goes to Percy for advice. Dedicated to Taffeh A. Llama.
Paul was no expert on the concept of normality, but he was pretty sure that it was not a normal occurence to have several heavily wounded teenagers lying in various awkward positions (judging by some of the more interesting ones, he figured that they'd been dumped in a hurry) on the living room floor and draped across furniture at nine o'clock on a Friday night. / Pre-HoO.
The night after the final battle with the giants, Piper reflects on her new family and how—sometimes—heroes really do get their happily-ever-afters. / Happy birthday, WiseGirl7131!
"Butterflies can't see their wings. They can't see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can. People are like that as well." / Tiny, tiny bit of swearing.
