War changes kids

I've only seen this fic concept once and it was lifechanging and I need to see it again.

The idea that CHB wasn't perfect before the war, the the survivors put a rose-colored tint over their memories of pre-war CHB and all the people who died before/during the Titan war, the idea that going through war changed all of these demigods.

In the fic they use time travel, which is a vastly under-used trope, and Percy and a few other campers travel back in time to their younger bodies to a few days before Percy arrived at camp.

Now that's cool and all but I think it would be really interesting just to see these demigods talk to their younger couterparts, and their past siblings and see just how their world view has changed.

Clarrisse for example she tells her cabin she fought in a war but didn't want to and they're all aghast, they've all dreamed of leading wars, how could she not want to? And Clarrisse being forced to realise the way these kids view the world with honor and glory through combat? Clarrisse looking at her brothers and sisters who died to war who are ecstatic at the idea of one? Clarrisse realizing this used to be her. The tired vertran watching the children who the war hasn't taken the light from.

Will meeting with his brothers and sisters from the past, fully prepared to talk about how the prep the infirarmy for the upcoming war, because having to choose who gets the ambrosia rations is a terrifying expierence he wouldn't wish on anyone. But none of them ask about the infirmary prep. Because they don't do infirarmy prep. They ask about his shooting, and his music and if his healing magic has gotten better. Will keeps bringing up how they need to start teaching first-aid courses to all cabins not just cabin 7. Will's talking to a bunch of kids who've only ever heard the songs of war through the side of the soldier. A grizzeled battlefield medic looking at a bunch of med-students who have never had to debate who they can afford to have die because they don't have engough medics for all the patients.

Malcolm bringing Nico to meet with his cabin mates to talk about how to make funeral shrouds but none of them want to talk about that, they want the glories to weave into their tapestries to impresse their mother. Malcolm explains the importance of starting the shroud when the demigod leaves for a quest and not when they fail to return. He wants to punch someone when he hears that maybe failures don't deserve shrouds. He says that then half of his siblings don't deserve the shrouds he made them. He wants to cry when they agree. Malcolm's talking to a bunch of children who've never gotten blood on a shroud because they've made so many in the past few days that the thread cut open their fingers. A tired brother looking at a fresh batch of soldiers who don't know the hatred that comes with having to dig a mass grave for your siblings because the energy needed to bury them are being used to keep someone else alive.

Annabeth meets with the other half of her cabin. She's nervous after hearing about how it went with the others. Thankfully they all want to talk about battle straegy. Annabeth brings up a hundred different failsafes you need to make in plans to keep people alive, she talks about back up plans and how to plan for a triage center and how to plan for the injured and how to make a plan to find the dead bodies and how too make a plan to organize rations and. They all stop up with the questions of who messed up. They sit around and pick apart stragies and make fun of screws ups of dead people, the same way you would nitpick stratagies of generals long dead. The same way she used to. She storms out as they debate the failures of her dead friends and family. Annabeth is sournded by people who have never had a plan that cost someone's life and don't understand the desperation that comes with it. A veteran listens to new recruits talk about how they would have done so much better, knowing that by the time any of them reach the rank where they would be the ones making the choices most of them would be dead.

I'm sure they're a lot more I could do but it is 11 o'clock at night and I am tired, I will probably add to this later but who knows.

If anyone has anything more to add please tag me or message me or both I would love to hear someone else's thoughts.

(Ps. If anyone has the name/link of the fic pls tell me I wanna credit the author and re-read it)

The contrast of Athena and Odysseus now compared to when they met 😭😭 Athena’s dreaming of a kinder world and Odysseus is like, “it doesn’t exist now and if it ever does, it’s beyond my years and I’ll never see it.”

I love it

You know the Grimm version of Snow White makes more sense than most versions if only because in that version Snow White was like 7 years old.

SHES SO CUTEEEEE

Pig!Marinette for my kwami swap roster. It's... already been half a year since the last one, apparently. Oops. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a fan of the canon colors for the pig holder's outfit, so I stuck with Daizzi's colors, but muted and pinker... fine! I did my own thing (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ No regrets.

I feel very proud about being right about this hehe

Hi! I have no idea if you’ve talked about this but in A Warlock’s Wish is Lily that universes version of Merlin? In chapter 29, it seemed kinda implied (unless I completely misinterpreted lol). Like, from Author’s flashback (with who I’m assuming is Lily) they seem to have a very similar relationship to what he and Merlin have and Balinor is very very sure Merlin can’t be him kid. Also this chunk of the story...

“A twin brother?” Arthur recommends next, knowing that it’s just as unlikely.

“With exactly the same magical signature?” Balinor counters. “No two people can have the exact same magical signature, no matter how closely related they are.”

This interaction happened just before Author’s flashback and it makes it sound like they’re comparing Merlin to Lily. Balinor shutting the idea down by saying two people can’t have the exact same magical signatures even twins, but Merlin is from another universe so it could be possible for them to both exist.... then again might be looking to far into this. Fun thought tho.

Weeeeell, nothing has been completely confirmed, story-wise. So I’m afraid I can neither confirm nor deny about anything that hasn’t been explicitly mentioned in the story.

Have you seen the character designs for this Au? No? WELL LOOK AT HOW AMAZING THEY ARE-

In your AU, what things change in the Madrigal Family dynamic?

I don't like posting text only, so here are AU's basic designs as a bonus!

The main factor that defines how family dynamics in this AU differentiate from canon is that Alma and Pedro process their trauma in absolutely different ways. It comes from both the difference in their personalities (though I mostly made up Pedro's personality myself, I like how he turned out to be) and the difference in the experience itself. How was it different? Well, we'll find out...

The main problem with Pedro is his guilt complex and how it makes him feel the constant need to redeem himself, to make up for what he had already failed once - protecting the loved ones. But could it be that while trying to protect, he ends up hurting?

That while struggling with his burden of guilt, he taught his family the same unhealthy patterns?

"Who said I was mad at you about my wedding day?" "You literally sang a song about it." a.k.a Bruno heard the song about him.

"Who said I was mad at you about my wedding day?"

"You literally sang a song about it."

"Yeah, Pepa," Julieta said. There was a hint of her old childhood teasing tone in it. "You did sing a song about it."

"I, well-" Above Pepa's head, a cloud started to form. "I..." A hand clapped down on her shoulder, shaking the cloud away. "It's a funny song."

Bruno nodded. "Very nice beat."
