    Summary

    “She’ll never claim me,” he whispered. Silena shook her head, eyes wild as she looked around for anyone who could be watching.

    “My mother doesn’t remember half of her children as it is,” she said with a note of bitterness. “If you do something to impress her, it won’t matter. Return the bolt in her name. She’ll claim you if you act the part. If you stay unclaimed then they'll figure out what you really are," she said, squeezing his hands tightly. Percy's heart sped up.

    "I - I don't know the first thing about Aphrodite-"

    "My mother was born of sea foam," Silena cut him off. "And if you're really who I think you are... you are the sea. You can pull this off," she said and touched his cheek. "Get the bolt. Survive," she said. Percy swallowed.

    "What if I can't act the part?" He asked. Silena's expression went blank for a moment. Slowly, she slipped off her bracelet and placed it in his hands.

    "If you're going to be one of us... you better learn."

    Or

    AU where Percy has to hide the fact he's a Big Three kid otherwise he'll be killed on the spot. Unfortunately for him, unclaimed kids tend to raise the most suspicion... but he might have found a loophole in the form of Aphrodite.

    Summary

    Maverick doesn’t regret it when he takes the hit, when the last thing he hears before he ejects is Rooster screaming his name.

    But then he wakes. Not to a vast, white snowfield behind enemy lines—but to an inverted cockpit of an F-14.

    And to Goose, alive and well in the seat behind him.

    Or; the time-travel fix-it in which TG:M Maverick wakes up at the start of TG (1986).

    Summary

    "I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.

    “Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”

    "I’m sorry. What?”

    Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

    Summary

    “So you essentially want me to bring him back down to earth, by breaking his heart?”

    “Can’t break what doesn’t exist.” Sirius spits out bitterly.

    “Sirius--”

    “Please James,” he says earnestly, “you’d win the bet and everything. I just want my brother back.”

    “I-I get that, but I’m just not sure how I would be able to help.”

    “He looks up to you.” Sirius replies, “you’re the only one who can.”
    James Potter finds out his days on earth are numbered, so, in light of being (painfully) single, his friends hatch a bet to find out if he can win somebody's heart by the end of the school year. On a whim, Sirius suggests he try it with his hated and untrusting little brother, Regulus. There's just one problem. Sirius believes the budding romance between them is all for show. James does not.
