Danny and Jason have this weird Ghostie Bro bond thing that nobody can really understand
Like Jason is for sure the most antisocial brooding mysterious person ever, meanwhile Danny is just all smiles like “oh yeah I can walk through walls, disappear, and fly!!”
But somehow when they meet each other for the first time, they are automatically on the same wavelength and it freaks everyone out.
As far as the BatFam knows, they’ve only ever seen “sweet but no brain.”Danny so they have absolutely no idea that Danny can (and will) get just as unhinged as Jason until he fights the joker one day.
Round after round Danny gives the joker nothing but shit. He went from sweet babygirl ™️ to unhinged Eldrich nightmare in 0.05 seconds and it scares everyone except Jason who just looks at a blood covered danny in the middle of the fight and goes,
“Hey, you wanna hang out later?”
and Danny who has his hands around the Jokers throat just goes
“Yeah sure 😃.”
And that’s how the chaotic nightmare duo of Danny Fenton and Jason Todd is born, and believe me when I say that absolutely nobody is prepared for that duo.
*final edit: fic is posted here

Dick and Danny knowing each other from childhood and Dick's basically like "If vigilante life gets too hard I just chill with the one civilian that is chill about everything"
Bruce knows of him but is strictly forbidden into looking into him and the two got into too many fights for him to try.
Damian finds about him and wants to find stuff about him but is ALSO forbidden. So he's like "well then let me meet him" and everyone is super confused when he's told no.
It's one thing that's Dick's, one thing not connected to anything else and he's not giving it up.
So the family is super curious about this guy but are cut off both by dick AND Barbara.
Eventually, it was a mistake and dick silently seethes over it even now, they meet. Jason ran into him and dick.
And Jason? Of course he wanted to annoy his brother and he starts flirting cause duh, only, only the guy is pretty when he laughs. So Jason kinda runs off and Dick next to Danny is like "forget him, he's a menace"
Just, no one knowing Danny is phantom, no one even thinking about the possibility, only caring about "Dick, dick he's so cool let me know him better" and "Richard, do not let Todd continue flirting with him, he is corruption him"
Dick fighting off his family and other friends with brooms meanwhile Danny has no clue about it and is just happy to meet new people

Dp x dc idea 3
In this phantom planet happened but they did not thank him they turned on him Dc and dp are in different dimension in this.
His parents managed to convince world leaders that phantom killed there boy and was just using Danny body. The world only agreed because they were terrified of his powers.
Jazz tried to convince them, they were wrong and he is Danny. Sam and tucker are trying to protect Danny and elli. I’d imagine all of Casper high backing Danny the a list did protect him when the whole gauntlet of reality happened.
When all is said and done the world took no prisoners. Danny, Ellie and vlad (he’s still hiding in space) are the worlds most wanted. Dani and Ellie were severely injured and hardly able to get away.
They wake up with frostbite and clockwork over them. The world is no longer safe but they can’t remain in the infinite realms they are half human. The obvious solution send them to a different dimension.
They were sent to dc and end up in Gotham. All they had was a thermos, Ellie took a lipstick laser gun, and some medical supplies from frostbite. Danny is pissed off and hurt he doesn’t want to hurt anyone but he only wants to protect his sister.
Danny was willing to steal enough money to get a shabby hotel room for a month or so to figure things out. He got to fake identity’s and a job at bat burger he may not like anyone but he doesn’t want to have to steal more then he has to.
Elli the little menace that she is still wants to help people. It’s her personal mission to annoy red hood until he puts up with her what’s he gonna do shoot a kid. She wants to avoid Batman both Danny and Ellie think he is a demon with bat powers. Danny cant stop Ellie so he just mother hens her. He would be ready for when they turned on them this time.
Red hood is just freaking out there is a child meta no older then 10 in Gotham just following him and beating up people. He’s not Bruce he doesn’t want to deal with this. Following this child calling herself spirit was harder to then he’d admit. She went from white hair to prime adoption bait and great she has an older brother no older then 15. How was he gonna keep the two pieces of adoption bait away from bruce and why did he feel calmer around them.
Besides worrying about Ellie Danny was doing just fine ignoring his problems. Working at bat burger was fine definitely not reminding him about the nasty burger explosion that lead to him abandoning humanity. There was a regular who would just stare at him like he was glowing.
Duke was freaking out.
By the time Jason got forced into a mandatory dinner the two adoption bait were there. He did get a warning from cass not to ask Danny about his past he was greatly hurt by whatever it is. Ellie immediately knew he was red hood the minute he walked in. He was definitely getting a lecture about not reporting meta children.
As time goes on Ellie gets more open and talks about her dimension, how it turned on them and talk about her hero phantom. She was just his clone how he saved her and she met Danny because of him . How he saved everyone in a town that hated him. How he saved the world and they turned on them. They were horrified but Bruce got two new kids and finally had one who wasn’t a vigilante who liked galas.
During a bad fight against a massive invasion were everyone was down. Danny was just watching from the bat cave as Ellie and his new family went down. Alfred just looks at him and hands him a mask asking if he was going to go help.
Danny does and takes names. He downs the threat in less then two minutes just grabs Ellie and Damian they were the most injured looked at Batman and said he was taking them. Then he starts to mother hen them at the batcave.
The league and Batman were now freaking out.

The Curse of Oenone (Leo Valdez xFem!Oc)
A/N: Please remember you love me -Danny Words: 2,282 Series' Masterlist Previous Chapter // Next Chapter Listen to: 'As It Was' -by Harry Styles
Tumblr media
XXI: Don't Forget to Hold Your Grudges, Ladies!
Arachne's portraying me in the middle of a fight. In the tapestry, I look taller and older, I've got a fierce gaze as I lift my sword to kill a monster, and lightning strikes behind me just the right way to make me look menacing.
"Now, that's the daughter of Olympus," I think appreciatively. 
Arachne turns in my direction. I yelp at the horrible sight, and the creature hisses. "LEAVE!"
The ground crumbles under me, and I smell a sulfuric scent that suffocates me.
Ara sits up gasping for clean air, feeling the emptiness in her gut as if she were still falling. It takes her a moment to gather her thoughts, but she's almost certain that in her dream, she was falling straight to Tartarus.
Someone knocks on her door and Hedge walks in without waiting for a reply. "Rise and shine, Strategus! Valdez says the ship's about to land."
Tumblr media
"I've studied maps of Rome before. I've always wanted to come here, but..." Jason doesn't finish his sentence, too amazed to think. 
Ara, however, isn't eager. The dream she just had told her what she needed to know, and she doesn't want to leave the ship.
"Plans?" Hazel inquires. "Nico has until sunset—at best. And this entire city is supposedly getting destroyed today."
Ara takes a moment to hype herself up before she speaks. "I'm going with Annabeth and Percy."
Annabeth scowls. "No! This is my mission—"
"Percy can't walk around Rome alone, I'll be keeping the numbers even," she replies, eyes fixed on the town ahead so they can't see the fear in her eyes. "We won't follow you when it's time to part ways, you have my word."
"Fine," Annabeth grumbles, having no option but to give in. "Hazel, now that we're in Rome, do you think you can pinpoint Nico's location?"
"Um... hopefully, if I get close enough. I'll have to walk around the city. Frank, would you come with me?"
"Absolutely."
"And, uh... Leo," Hazel adds awkwardly. "It might be a good idea if you came along too. The fish-centaurs said we'd need your help with something mechanical."
"Yeah, no problem."
Piper draws out her dagger and Ara steps back looking at it with contempt, but no one seems to notice. "Jason and I can watch the ship for now. I'll see what Katoptris can show me. But, Hazel, if you guys get a fix on Nico's location, don't go in there by yourselves. Come back and get us. It'll take all of us to fight the giants."
"Good idea," Percy continues. "How about we plan to meet back here at... what?"
"Three this afternoon?" Jason offers. "That's probably the latest we could rendezvous and still hope to fight the giants and save Nico. If something happens to change the plan, try to send an Iris-message."
"That'll give me time to eat the coconuts—I mean dig the coconuts out of our hull," Hedge mutters. "Percy, Annabeth... Just remember: behave. If I hear about any funny business, I will ground you until the Styx freezes over."
Ara makes a face. "Man, I'm going with them, don't get your knickers in a bunch."
"We'll be back soon," Percy gives Ara a fleeting look before walking away. "Good luck, everyone."
Ara walks forward, her gut twisting in knots but deciding that once she leaves the ship she'll be leaving her fear too. Before she departs, though, Leo seizes her wrist. 
"Look after yourself," He tells her.
Ara kisses his cheek and mumbles. "I'll see you soon."
Tumblr media
Percy and Annabeth end up super glad that Ara joined them, she's the only one who can kind of speak Italian.
They decide to get food so they go to a restaurant near the river. Ara spaces out for a while, brooding on her dream and her prophecy, giving Percy and Annabeth a moment to be as cheesy as they please.
"So," Percy bites on his thin pizza. "Did you know Ara had a crush on Mike?"
She snaps out of her thoughts. "Are you serious?"
"You had a crush on Mike?" Annabeth raises a brow. "I thought you liked Nico!"
"Right?" Percy continues.
Annabeth's eyes turn sadder. "He was a brother to Lily. I can see the appeal, er... for you, I mean. He was always on your side, looking after you. Kind of like Leo, if Leo knew how to fix people instead of machines."
Percy swallows his food, looking slightly guilty. "I've always had this feeling Lily never forgave me for what happened..."
"I think she blames me more," Ara admits quietly. "Maybe she has the right to be angry... about everything," the girl stabs several pieces of lettuce with her fork, but she doesn't eat them. "I come here to try and show her that he didn't die in vain, and now..."
Now I'm dying, and she won't even know that I'm sorry.
"You know, this feels like the old days," Annabeth tries to lift their spirits. "When it was just us."
"We're missing Grover, nervously chewing trash," Ara retorts.
"This is exactly like the old days," Percy responds, having none of it. "You two hiding things from me, and I have no option but to follow blindly. Did you know she decided to become a daughter of Olympus a year before the war?"
He stares at Annabeth pointedly, and the girl heaves a sigh. "No, but it makes sense." She looks at Ara. "Your mother talked you into it, didn't she?"
Ara shifts in her seat awkwardly. "Not like you think. She was trying to make me feel proud of who I was when I didn't have much to hold onto. I made the choice."
"I think you refuse to see it how it is," Annabeth's gaze isn't as resentful as Percy's, but there is some kind of concern there. "Maybe it's better like this if you want a somewhat nice, sane life. My mom isn't my best ally nowadays..."
Percy eyes both girls, worried at how defeated they sound. "Annabeth, you don't have to do this."
"You'll have to trust me," she says firmly. "You've got to believe I'll come back."
"I believe in you. That's not the problem. But come back from where?"
"Now, that..." Ara lifts her fork and stares at the lettuce, "is the question..."
The roar of an engine cuts through their conversation: a couple of vintage-looking adults are approaching, and Ara knows right away these people are 1. Not mortal, and 2. Looking for them.
"Why, hello," the guy slips off his bike.
"We've had the most lovely morning," the woman tells them as if they're all old friends.
"Oh, gods," Annabeth stammers. "How—how... ?"
Ara kicks her brother's foot. "You know them?"
"No. But you guys do look familiar," he hums. "Are you that guy on Mad Men?"
"Percy!" Annabeth gasps.
"What? I don't watch a lot of TV."
"That's Gregory Peck!" Annabeth exclaims like that would mean anything to Ara and Percy. "And... oh gods! Audrey Hepburn! I know this movie. Roman Holiday. But that was from the 1950s. How—?"
"Oh, my dear! I'm afraid you've mistaken me for someone else! My name is Rhea Silvia. I was the mother to Romulus and Remus, thousands of years ago. But you're so kind to think I look as young as the 1950s. And this is my husband..."
"Tiberinus. God of the River Tiber," he shakes Percy's hand and winks at Ara.
"Yeah, I see the Aubrey Hepburn," Ara observes the couple with interest. "I'm Ara, this is my brother Percy, and this is Annabeth."
"Uh, hi. Do you two always look like American movie stars?" Percy asks.
"Do we? I'm not sure, actually. The migration of Western civilization goes both ways, you know. Rome affected the world, but the world also affects Rome. There does seem to be a lot of American influence lately. I've rather lost track over the centuries."
"Okay," Percy glances at the girls. "But... you're here to help?"
"My naiads told me you were here." The guy turns to Annabeth. "You have the map, my dear? And your letter of introduction?"
"Uh..." Annabeth hands him the disk and the letter. Ara can't help but notice she's glowing scarlet. "S-so... you've helped other children of Athena with this quest?"
"Oh, my dear! Tiberinus is ever so helpful. He saved my children Romulus and Remus, you know, and brought them to the wolf goddess Lupa. Later, when that old king Numen tried to kill me, Tiberinus took pity on me and made me his wife. I've been ruling the river kingdom at his side ever since. He's just dreamy!"
"Thank you, my dear. And, yes, Annabeth Chase, I've helped many of your siblings... to at least begin their journey safely. A shame all of them died painfully later on. Well, your documents seem in order. We should get going. The Mark of Athena awaits!"
Percy's hand moves across the table and grasps Annabeth's before she can get up. "Tiberinus, let me go with her. Just a little farther."
"But you can't, silly boy!" The lady laughs. "You must return to your ship and gather your other friends. Confront the giants! The way will appear in your friend Piper's knife. Annabeth has a different path. She must walk alone."
"Indeed," The god nods. "Annabeth must face the guardian of the shrine by herself. It is the only way. And Jacksons, you have less time than you realized to rescue your friend in the jar. You must hurry."
"But—"
"It's all right, guys," Annabeth eases them. "I need to do this."
A split second goes by in which Percy realizes he can't work his way around this. "You're right," he struggles to speak. "Be safe."
"Safe? Not at all! But necessary," the goddess beams. "Come, Annabeth, my dear. We will show you where your path starts. After that, you're on your own."
Annabeth kisses Percy and then hugs Ara. The girl squeezes her tightly. 
"If you get yourself killed," Ara whispers. "I'm forcing Hades to spit you out. Don't make me break the rules, please."
Her friend chuckles. "Noted."
Percy and Ara watch Annabeth climb onto the Vespa and leave with the gods.
"There she goes," Ara says plainly. "Let's go."
The boy glares at her. "How can you watch your oldest friendship go on a life-threatening quest like it's nothing?"
Ara sighs without looking at him. "If I had a crisis every time someone I love goes on a quest, I'd have to be institutionalized."
Percy sounds even more frustrated. "You weren't like this."
She locks eyes with him. "When you were sent to Calypso's island, Hephaestus said enduring your absence would be helpful in the future, and it was—"
"So you're saying it's my fault—"
"You were the first person to hand me a sword," she reminds him. "Maybe you didn't believe I had it in me to become more than just a mildly decent warrior, but yeah, I'd say you sort of encouraged this."
"That's not true!" Percy stops her before she crosses a road without looking at both sides. "I believe in you, but if you had the brains to think twice before trying something dangerous, maybe I wouldn't freak out as much—Quests aren't games, Ara! I wish you stopped acting like they are!"
The girl snatches her arm away. "I'm not a ten-year-old anymore, Percy, I know what I'm doing! Stay out of my way!" 
Ara pushes past him and quickens her pace.
Tumblr media
Ara stays with Hedge after she and Percy go back to the ship. Piper hands her Katroptis and tells her she can keep an eye on everyone. Ara holds it, and her entire body buzzes with familiarity.
Ara tries to imagine what it felt like to be on the run, with only that dagger to update her on the state of her old motherland. She wonders if the remains of her primal life marked all of the rest, frightening her with thoughts of solitude and exile.
Aphrodite says she isn't Helen, and Ara doesn't want to be Helen, but sometimes she can see Helen reflected in her words and actions, and fears it'll take her to the same end.
She gives the dagger to Hedge. "Here, you can look for those baseball scores and keep an eye on everyone, I'll be at the helm."
The satyr eyes her intently, sensing her stress. "You alright, Strategus?"
Ara walks to the control board and changes the subject. "Do you know how to use this, Coach?"
He goes to her. "Only you and Valdez know how to operate that labyrinth of buttons and levels."
"I'll show you what each one does, and you must try to memorize it."
Her prophecy might come to fruition today, so she has to leave everything in order in case she doesn't come back after they get Annabeth from her solo quest. Ara acts like she's just making conversation with Hedge to pass the time, she teaches him how to use the control board, mentions where she keeps an emergency stash of drachmas, and then, talks about where she keeps the pictures, what things she wants to give to Percy after they return, to Lily and Leo...
Hedge listens with a funny look in his eyes and that's when Ara realizes she's been using charmspeak. She's so anxious about leaving, that the satyr gets the full blast of it. But being honest, it's better this way.
Not even five minutes have passed when the satyr comes back and shoves the dagger into her hand. "You should see this."
Ara grabs the blade and the visions clears: Percy, Jason, and Piper are face-to-face with the giant twins. Behind them, a large bronze jar is set between two large praetor chairs. Ara drops the dagger and picks up her Octopi backpack from under the control board. 
"Hedge, you saw where the others are?"
"No, but I can look for them."
"Cool. I'm going to help these guys."
"You can't go alone!"
Ara hesitates but in the end, she picks up Piper's dagger. "Stay here and wait, I'll contact you once I'm done."
"Strategus!"
Ara runs out with Lily's dagger on her belt and Almighty in her pocket.

Batman AU - Ghostwing
Ok. Listen. Listen. I can’t stop thinking about this so I need to put it out there so other people can maybe think about it too and talk to me about it.
Disclaimer that I still don’t really know anything about batman/the batfamily other than what I’ve picked up from tumblr, tiktok, and cultural osmosis.
Here we go.
This kinda turned into more of a fic than I intended, so I’m putting it under a Read More.
A convention for ghost hunters is held in Gotham because it’s obviously the most haunted place in america. Every single ghost hunter is invited. This, of course, includes the Fentons.
Jack and Maddie are ecstatic and, of course, drag Danny and Jazz along. Vlad wasn’t invited as he is not known in ghost hunting circles but he knows that Maddie and Danny are going to be there, so he goes. (Vlad also goes on the off chance there is something there worth stealing for Valerie.)
So, the Fentons are going, but you know who else is going? Jason Todd, because he thinks it’s funny, Stephanie Brown, because she also thinks it’s funny, and Tim Drake, to see if any of their technology is worth buying/stealing and coopting into batsuits.
The batkids step in and do a double take to make sure they didn’t walk into a Rogues Gallery meeting-in-process. Everyone is there, the Fentons, the Guys-in-White, is that millionaire Vlad Masters skulking around in the back? But they are well trained and take everything in like good vigilante’s wood. Jason and Steph bounce around from booth to booth, mocking the ghost hunters under their breath or to their faces, and generally aim for the people who seem the craziest. They land on the Fenton’s because someone set Jack off on a tirade.
Jason clocks Jazz’s unimpressed demeanor and Danny shrinking himself in the corner while doing homework with far more desperation than required. His eyes narrow a bit when he notices how the red head seems to be distracting the Fenton’s away from the boy.
Danny is not having a good time and it shows. He’s grateful to Jazz for playing defense for him but he just really wants to go home. This much weaponized ecto-energy in an enclosed space is making him twitchy, and he knows if this convention goes on for too long, Technus or Skulker are bound to show up. He already spotted Vlad lurking, trying to get his mom alone while avoiding his dad’s attention, and firmly shoved himself further into the back corner of the booth. He couldn’t get away, but it made it easier for Jazz to keep everyone else away. He was alternating doing homework and texting Dani, who had been to Gotham before. His head snaps up when he feels someone staring at him and locks eyes with someone whose eyes are faintly glowing green. He hisses, which draws Jazz’s attention.
Jason sees the kid notice him and say something to the girl, the both of them watching him while the boy texts without looking. Jason and Steph share a look before edging around the booth to get to the kids.
Vlad also sees a shift and decides to give up drawing Maddie away to talk to Daniel. He goes up with a practice smile and attempts to move a stubborn Jazz out of the way subtly.
“Jasmine. How lovely to see you. And Daniel, my boy-” 
“Not your boy, Vlad.” Danny growls, uncurling himself to stand beside his sister.
“Oh come now-”
“What are you doing here, Mr. Masters?” Jazz says with the lift of an eyebrow. Her arms uncross to hang loose at her sides, but the batkids watching can see the outline of some kind of baton in her pocket.
“Oh, certainly I can visit friends?” Master’s was attempting to skirt the girl, Jazz, but she absolutely was not having it.
“Funny, your only friend here is dad and you seem to be avoiding him.” The boy spit out. Masters’ smile dropped like a gargoyle off of a parapet.
“Daniel...” the man said with the worst attempt at menace Jason had witnessed in a long time.
“I think you should get going, Uncle Badtouch.” Jason said, inserting himself between Masters and the kids. “Wouldn’t want anyone to think you were creeping on some kids.”
Vlad looks affronted for a moment, before his eyes turn calculating as he stares at Jason’s face.
“Have we met?” He asks.
“Thankfully not.” Jason growls, eyes starting to glow just a bit more for emphasis. Strangely, Masters seems calmer, more enthusiastic instead of scared. Jason only subconsciously notices the boy, Daniel?, out of the corner of his eye, texting frantically.
“Surely we must have. For people like us, all we have is each other.” Masters tries to purr. Tries.
“What the fuck are you on? There’s no way we are even slightly-” he cuts off abruptly when Masters’ eyes change from (whatever color they normally are) to bright, unnatural green, and then back.
“You see?” Vlad chuckles, delighted. “We’re the same, so really both you and Daniel should join me.”
“Literally no one is ever going to join you, Plasmius.” Danny hisses. “Even when you make them they want nothing to do with you, so just leave.”
Vlad is just about to retort when a boom of “Vladdie!” comes from  behind the kids. Masters sneers before slipping away with one final “you will join me one of these days.”
Jason and Steph, now confused about why the boy called Masters Plasmius and what he meant by join him look to the other pair for an explanation. Tim’s also found them after looking over all of the tech. 
“Jay, your eyes.” He taps his brother before standing on the other side of Steph from him.
Jazz’s head snaps up from where it had bent over Danny’s phone with him, reading Dani’s texts.
“Mom!” she called, startling her brother and  the woman in question. The batkids watched the blue jumpsuited figure turn to her kids.
“What is it honey, I’m talking experiments.”
“Danny and I have made some friends, we’re going to get a bite to eat with them.” She said, pointing to the batkids who were trying to look like that was exactly what they were doing.
“Ok, have fun!” Maddie immediately turned back to her conversation. “Tell us if you see any Ghosts!” Jack called after them.
Danny and Jazz dragged the three out of the venue and only stopped while they were on the street.
“Right, do you know anywhere we could actually go? preferably someplace populated where Plasmius won’t show up.” She said, turning to the three Gothamites.
“Yeah, I know a place.” Jason took the lead and led the other four to a hole-in-the-wall Mongolian place.
“So, mind telling me what the fuck was all that with uncle badtouch?” Jason started off.
“I’m so calling him that next time I see him.” The boy said.
“We should probably do introductions first. I’m Jazz Fenton.” Jazz said, “and this is my little brother Danny. I already know that you” she gestured to Tim “are Timothy Drake-Wayne, but who are you?”
“I’m Steph, and this is Jay.”
“Right, so?”
Jazz and Danny looked at each other. “Okay.” Danny said slowly. “What is said at this table cannot leave this table. I mean it. Not even our parents know about this and they can’t know about this.” 
“Oooooo, keeping secrets from the old people? I’m in.” Jason, Steph, and Tim also quickly agreed.
“So, the think is: I’m a ghost. Well, I’m half-ghost. We’re called halfas.”
“Original.” Tim snorted. Danny just gave him a look.
“That’s why my eyes glow like this.” He demonstrated, going from blue to green and back, “I can also do a full transformation into my ghost form, but that’s kinda flashy. Plasmius, I mean Vlad, is also a halfa and we both thought that Jay was one too because of the eyes.”
“But my eyes don’t change color, they just glow.” Jay said.
“Yeah, most people with green eyes just have them glow when they’re possessed.” Danny shrugs.
Then he launches into an explanation of ghosts, halfas, the ghost zone, and what he-- and to an extent, Jazz-- has been doing in Amity Park as the hero Danny Phantom.
“...And we know you aren’t actually a halfa, because Dani-- that’s Dani with an ‘i’, short for Danielle-- has been to Gotham before and ran into you guys once. So I told you my secret identity because, you know, fairs fair.”
And I kinda ran out of steam, but basically Danny gets a support system in the form of the Batfamily and both he and Jazz eventually get adopted by Bruce because the Fenton’s are criminally negligent. The misunderstandings with Valerie are cleared up and the two of them get back together but this time with ghost-and-crimefighting as part of their relationship. Jazz and Babs hit it off, Valerie’s dad starts working with Lucius Fox, and upon request, each member of the batfamily takes a trip to the Ghost Zone to see their deceased loved ones and talk to them. Just, Danny Phantom becomes Ghostwing (Dani also shows up and stays with them in Gotham, but she doesn’t really crime fight much unless it’s right in front of her or Danny needs help, and no one begrudges her her choices), he and Jazz become part of the batfam, and Vlad spends forever looking for another halfa that doesn’t exist.

  Lets be honest here when sevco scored on hogmanay i was a little worried ,not that we wouldn’t get back into the game at some point but that the sevco fans would literally shit their pants at the thought of actually winning a game against Celtic,these games when we played them against Rangers were nervy and tense affairs ,and i didn’t really enjoy the tv experience i much preferred being at the game and being distracted by a good rebel song…
But on Saturday i knew we were better equipped than our opposition and the goals would come ,2nd half Celtic were brilliant ,first half was a kick in the nuts ,i dont know what Brendan Rodgers said to the players at half time but the team that came out second half were different class ,Sinclair dembelle,broony were 3 worth special mention but the team as a whole were fantastic..
We could have one by more but any victory margin wins the same points and 2-1 0r 5-1 it still adds up to 3 points and a great start to the new year for the club and fans ,19 points clear with a game in hand is more than any of us could have expected but were cruising, a treble is a distinct possibility this year,no matter what happens 2016 has been a great year for Celtic football club ,with so much to look forward to in 2017 its great to be a hoops fan…
HAPPY NEW YEAR

RANGERS…1 (Miller 12) CELTIC…2 (Dembele 34, Sinclair 70)
SCOTT Sinclair’s 11th league goal of the season saw Celtic fight back to seal a deserved Glasgow derby victory over Rangers at Ibrox and maintain their sensational start to the season going into the new year.Kenny Miller had fired the hosts into an early lead but the champions restored parity before the break thanks to Moussa Dembele’s thunderous strike.
From that moment on, the champions were the dominant side, creating countless chances before they finally found a way through in the 70th minute when the excellent Sinclair converted Stuart Armstrong’s cross at the far post, a goal that proved decisive in a pulsating contest.The final whistle was the signal was jubilant celebrations among the players on the pitch and in the away end, with Brendan Rodgers’ side extending their unbeaten domestic run to 24 games and stretching their lead at the top of the table to 19 points, having played a game fewer than their rivals.
Dembele, who had scored four times against the Ibrox side already this season, including a hat-trick in the last league meeting of the sides, was restored to the starting XI – and he certainly proved his worth.His inclusion was one of two changes to the team that beat Ross County 2-0 on Wednesday night, with Callum McGregor returning to the midfield following his suspension.
Leigh Griffiths and Ryan Christie were the two players to drop out, with the former named among the substitutes.Prior to kick-off, a minute’s silence was observed by for the 66 fans that tragically lost their lives in the Ibrox Disaster.The match then started at its usual frenetic pace and it was the home side who made the first foray forward almost straight from the kick off. Barrie McKay collected a loose ball on the left, drove forward and picked out Joe Garner in the box but Armstrong was back quickly to make a timely challenge at the expense of a corner.
McKay had made a lively start for Rangers and he supplied Jason Holt on the edge of the box in the fourth minute, giving the former but Craig Gordon leapt to his right to make a low save.After this initial flurry from the Ibrox side, Celtic started to settle into their stride, enjoying some periods of possession, with Armstrong having a shot deflected wide from distance and Mikael Lustig heading the resultant corner over. Sinclair also shot wide after fastening onto a long ball over the top.
But in the 12th minute the hosts broke the deadlock. James Tavernier drilled a ball across from the byline and Miller stabbed home from close range.Emboldened by their goal, Rangers continued to pour forward and Martyn Waghorn, an early replacement for the injured Garner, had a header saved by Gordon but the offside flag was raised in any event.
The champions gradually worked their way back into the contest and after Armstrong and McGregor had combined on the edge of the box, the latter worked a sight of goal in the box but he curled well over.With space at a premium in midfield and the game being played at a furious pace, it took until the 33rd minute for Celtic to carve out their next opening on the counter-attack. Sinclair’s speed saw him beat the offside trap and, although he was unable to get the original pass under control, he still managed to manoeuvre his way into the box and crack a shot off the inside of the post.
From the resultant corner, the Hoops levelled the match in stunning style. Sinclair’s lofted delivery was missed by everyone in the middle but dropped for Dembele at the far post and he lashed in a ferocious half-volley that ripped into the top of the net, sending the away support into delirium.
The momentum now swung firmly in Celtic’s direction and had James Forrest got a better contact from Emilio Izaguirre’s low delivery then it could have been quick-fire turnaround for Brendan Rodgers’ side.Sinclair had been a constant menace down the left with his pace, movement and trickery, and he threatened again as half-time approached, thrusting into the box and bringing out a flying save from Wes Foderingham.
The visitors continued where they had left off as the second half got underway and Sinclair curled a free-kick wide after Dembele had been felled by Tavernier on the apex of the box.Moments later, Dembele spurned an excellent chance to grab his second of the game after Lustig had cleverly found him in the box in acres of space, the Frenchman failing to make clean contact.
Foderingham then came to his team’s rescue, blocking Forrest’s shot after Armstrong’s deft pass has put the winger in the clear.It was one-way traffic and the woodwork denied Celtic for a second time in the 55th minute. McGregor scampered down the left and his cross was met acrobatically by Dembele on the volley. He did brilliantly to keep the ball down but could only watch in anguish as the ball bounced up and struck the underside of the bar before Sinclair sent the rebound into the side-netting.
Rangers survived the onslaught, replying with a McKay shot that was straight at Gordon, while Waghorn also failed to capitalise when breaking clear of the Celtic defence, though there did appear to be handball earlier in the move. Around the midway point of the half, Sinclair was thwarted by Foderingham and the offside flag after a one-two with Dembele and then Gordon saved from Danny Wilson at the other end following a Rangers corner – but it was Celtic who deservedly broke through again with 20 minutes remaining on the clock.
Only minutes after replacing Forrest, Patrick Roberts threaded a pass through for Armstrong and his low cross was swept home at the far post by Sinclair. Armstrong had been growing in prominence and only a superb save from Foderingham denied him making it 3-1 after he had been supplied by Roberts.
The Hoops were almost punished for their profligacy on the break when Halliday centred for Miller, whose shot rolled off the far post. But Celtic could easily have inflicted further punishment as the clock ticked down, with Armstrong coming close on two occasions before the Hogmanay party got underway in earnest in the Broomloan Stand.

Daughter of Olympus (Leo Valdez xFem!Oc)
A/N: The titles are long af bc I find that very funny -Danny Words: 3,948 Series' Masterlist Previous Chapter / Next Chapter Listen to: 'Runaway' -by Aurora
Tumblr media
V. Memory Lane Has Too Many Stops and I Keep Getting Carsick
Ara has barely stopped crying when Leo Valdez shows up flying the bronze dragon. Everyone stands ready, except Ara. She pushes through the crowd, eyes brimming with tears once again.
"People of Earth, I come in peace!" Leo is the most insane-looking boy she's ever seen. He's dirty from head to toe and looks like he spent the whole night awake. "Festus is just saying hello!"
"That thing is dangerous! Kill it now!"
"Stand down!" Jason shouts anxiously, Annabeth and Nyssa stand next to him. "Leo, what have you done?"
"Found a ride!" He says cheerfully. "You said I could go on the quest if I got you a ride. Well, I got you a class-A metallic flying bad boy! Festus can take us anywhere!"
"Festus..?" Ara echoes hoarsely.
"It—has wings," Nyssa stammers.
"Yeah! I found them and reattached them."
"But it never had wings! Where did you find them?"
"In... the woods," he's hiding something, but Ara couldn't care less about it at the moment. "Repaired his circuits, too, mostly, so no more problems with him going haywire."
"Mostly?"
The dragon tilts his head and oil falls on top of Leo. He's completely unbothered by it. "Just a few kinks to work out."
Ara's mind catches up with her body and she runs to Festus in tears. Leo jumps out of the way in alarm, but everyone else is delighted. She looks less menacing this way. "You fixed it! You fixed my dragon!"
Leo frowns. "Say what?"
"But how did you survive?" Nyssa asks in shock. "I mean, the fire breath..."
"I'm quick," he turns to his sister. "And lucky. Now, am I on this quest, or what?"
"You named him Festus?" Jason adds. "You know that in Latin, 'Festus' means 'happy'? You want us to ride off to save the world on Happy the Dragon?"
"It's perfect!" Ara laughs, the first genuine laughter that comes out of her in days, and gods, it feels so good.
"Okay, so she's as crazy as me," Leo doesn't sound troubled by it. Festus purrs at Ara's touch, she's holding onto his snout. "That's a yes! Now, um, I'd really suggest we get going, guys. I already picked up some supplies in the—um, in the woods. And all these people with weapons are making Festus nervous."
"But we haven't planned anything yet. We can't just—"
"Go," Annabeth stares at them with fondness. "You have Ara, you'll be okay. You've only got three days until the solstice now, and you should never keep a nervous dragon waiting. This is certainly a good omen. Go!" 
Jason looks at Piper. "You ready, partner?"
"You bet." The girl's beaming at the dragon.
"Everyone, give our General a proper send-off!" Lily speaks next to her, which causes Ara to jump. She hates it when Lily does that.
The campers lift their shields and swords. Lily places a Tyrian purple cloak on Ara's shoulders and hands her a worn T-rex backpack. "Come back alive," she raises her left hand, and a thin scar can be seen on the side of her wrist. "Deal?"
Ara lifts her right wrist and lightly presses it against Lily's. "You got it." She turns to look at the campers. "I'll bring you good news this time, I promise," Ara faces Leo, the insane boy, and her eyes fill with gratitude. "I owe you a big one."
"Cash only, sunshine. Or a kiss, if you're feeling generous," Leo jokes, trying to stop her from looking at him like that.
Ara smiles, which is not the reaction he wanted. He's hoping she'll go back to being grumpy soon, but unfortunately, nothing's going to make her forget his great deed. "I'll think about it."
She climbs on top of the dragon, and Leo does an okay job at keeping it together. Ara feels this is where she's meant to be, this will bring back her brother. She's always had a good instinct when it comes to Percy.
Tumblr media
I'm weaving baskets when this weird thought crosses my mind: 
Look for Percy!
I saw him fifteen minutes ago, but I tell the naiads and nymphs that are with me: "Go get help." They notice how serious I am—which is unlike me—and follow my plea. I make my way to the forest, something is guiding me.
When Percy fought Ares, I gave him Aphrodite's protection. I told him "Love will keep you safe", and at the time he thought that I was saying it to not be the only one that hadn't given him something, but I knew it would work. I didn't know that it would bind me to him, but I'm not complaining.
When I find him, Percy sounds scared. "You're being used, Luke. You and Ares both. Don't listen to Kronos."
"I've been used? Look at yourself. What has your dad ever done for you? Kronos will rise. You've only delayed his plans. He will cast the Olympians into Tartarus and drive humanity back to their caves. All except the strongest—the ones who serve him."
I throw my basket at the back of Luke's head, trying to give Percy time so he can grab his sword. Luke turns and holds his weapon tighter. He has a new sword. "I've had enough!"
I stumble and cut my palm on a rock, I grab it and hear Percy's panicky voice. "Don't!" I don't know who he's talking to, but neither of us listens. The rock hits Luke's arm and I roll to avoid his blade but it grazes my skin. I grab a fistful of dirt and throw it at his face.
Percy swats whatever creature is on his leg and draws out his sword, Luke notices and decides I'm not worth the trouble, he makes an arch-motion with his weapon and disappears through a portal. I'm scared shitless and I can feel my back pulsing, I wanna run and hide behind someone again. 
"I'm sorry!" I cry, even though I'm not the one who almost killed Percy.
He stumbles toward me in some sort of pain, and I'll be damned if I don't help him out of this one. I put his left arm around my shoulders, and he places most of his weight on me, but I carry on.
Tumblr media
"Cool, right?" Leo's smell is starting to get a little too hard to ignore, Ara tries to keep his oil-covered self away. 
"What if we get spotted?" Piper asks.
"The Mist," Jason responds before Ara can. "It keeps mortals from seeing magic things. If they spot us, they'll probably mistake us for a small plane or something."
"You sure about that?"
"No."
"I am," Ara replies. "Don't worry, Piper, the crazier it gets, the harder it is for mortals to notice. If not, I know how to fix it."
"Is it thanks to the cool thing you are?" Leo asks.
"Yeah, Chiron had to readjust my training, not everyone can control the mist, but Thalia Grace is really good at it and she and Chiron taught me, she's the other child of Zeus."
"We're making good time," Jason comments like he's trying to change the subject. "Probably get there by tonight."
"Where are we heading?" Piper questions.
"To find the god of the North Wind and chase some storm spirits." 
"Piece of cake," Ara nods. "I've gone to many quests, follow your instincts and we'll be okay."
"Which reminds me!" Leo adds. "You didn't finish your story! You promised you would explain!"
Ara frowns. "Where was I?"
"That Luke dude went nuts."
She pauses, trying to piece her memories together. "Well, the nymphs took us back to camp..."
Tumblr media
Percy's really weak after Luke's attack. Annabeth left half an hour ago, and I'm standing on the porch clinging to my friend's arm. "You're going too, aren't you?" 
The basket I was weaving when I found him is at my feet, I made it for Grover. Percy says he might not come back at all. Grover, Annabeth, and Percy are the closest friends I've had and they're leaving. I want Percy to stay.
"I want to be with my mom, Ara."
"I wish I had a family," I make a face.
Percy pats my hand, I would rather have him glaring, but Annabeth says he's got a soft spot for me. "I thought you were excited to work on the forges?"
I sigh, Percy's words are not enough to distract me. "If I had a family, I'd choose them over camp too," I hold his hand and squeeze it. "Have a good year, Nemo."
He shakes my hand. "Have a fun year, Birdy. Maybe you can come and spend Christmas with me and my mom?"
"You're giving me permission to annoy you outside camp?"
Percy grabs his glass of nectar and drinks from it. "Let's see who gets tired first."
Tumblr media
Leo isn't as obnoxious as he pretends to be. He tells them about his connection to Hera, and the girl connects the dots. She doesn't want to use her empath touch on him, but she doesn't need to, Leo gets really quiet after telling his story and keeps his eyes ahead, no longer in the mood for jokes.
Ara process all the information she's gathered, to her it's obvious who the big bad is, but she does not dare to say it out loud, it would mean her future as the daughter of Olympus is bound to that stupid prophecy...
"You know something, don't you?" Piper asks as if reading Ara's thoughts. 
Leo has fallen asleep in front of them so she speaks quietly, though she doesn't need to, the wind is loud enough to hide her voice. "Nothing that could make things better."
"Okay... I just want to say, you know... thank you," Piper squeezes her shoulder. "You must be dead worried about your brother..."
Ara senses dread in Piper, the girl isn't as calm as she appears to be. "He would've wanted me to come. Others are looking for him, so..." She isn't needed. At least here, she feels important. She's a protector, and she likes that these demigods respect her. "And Lily's looking after camp, so I'm not worried."
"Annabeth's sister?" Piper muses. "Is she another daughter of Olympus?"
"Something better," Ara smiles. "She's my best friend."
Tumblr media
Lily Saggio is the newest and weirdest camper in this place. She's got pitch-black hair and big gray eyes. Since I came back from Percy's home, I've seen campers give her weary looks when she walks past, they say she's just like Thalia.
"Hi! I'm Ara!"
The girl regards me with distrust, then she glances at the table I was in. I feel like she ran a background check in less than five seconds. "Lily Saggio."
I'll have to carry the conversation. That's okay. "You're lucky you got here during winter and not summer! Where are you from?"
Lily stares at me pondering whether to talk or ignore me. "You're a year-rounder?"
"Yeah!"
"Why weren't you here last week?" I notice she's trying to hide an accent, but I do my best to act like I don't.
"I was invited to my friend's house. Look, he gave me this!" I show her my backpack, which is a teddy bear. I keep priceless things in it: my snacks and the legos Sally gave me as a Christmas/late birthday present. 
"You can leave this place?" Lily's expression shifts.
"Not all the time," I pull Bear and rummage through him. "I promised I wouldn't leave Percy's apartment—and it was Christmas!"
Lily stands up straighter, looking defiant. "I can look after myself, I've fought monsters before," She pulls out a black dagger and shows it to me.
I gasp. "Where did you get that?"
"It showed up on my nightstand after my Nonna..." She pauses and shakes her head. "It's a gift from my patron, so I don't—"
"You don't like it here?" I pull out my box of Legos and Lily's eyes brighten at the sight. "Don't you wanna know who your parent is?"
She frowns. "I know who my dad is."
"Oh! You're an Ares kid? You don't look like Apollo but you'd make an interesting child of Hermes or Dionys—"
"I didn't mean that."
"You know your dad?" I ask, not following the conversation.
"Yes, my mortal parent," she rolls her eyes. "I don't care about the god. They didn't care about me."
To think that way will get her a step closer to joining Luke. I don't want that. "Do I look like I'm Aphrodite's child?"
"What?"
"Do I look it?" I insist.
"You're okay."
This is the first time anyone calls me okay. My brain goes: Well... duh!
"It hardly matters who your godly parent is, you'll grow to love it here," I lock arms with her and place my Legos on her hands. "I'm going to the forges, come and see."
"I don't need a chaperone—"
"You are sooo grumpy," I sigh. "No one would trust me to look after another camper. So!"
Lily waits for me to finish my sentence. "So?"
"They'll leave you alone if I'm with you, I'm not very popular either."
On our way to the forges, I hear a couple of Ares kids shout rude things at Lily, I step in to shut them up and they laugh so hard they forget about her.
"Go away," Lily scowls at me.
I pout a little. "I just wanted to help."
"I don't need you."
"I didn't do that thinking you—"
"I don't care," she clenches her fists. "Never do that again."
Tumblr media
When they reach Boreas's palace, two of his children stop them. Zethes stares at the purple cloak covering her shoulders and his smile evaporates. "Ara Jackson."
She gives a start. "Hi. You know my name?"
"You killed Cacus!"
"Who?" Leo asks with amusement.
"It wasn't only me," Ara dismisses the comment. "Can we go in, then?"
Zethes doesn't look pleased. "You'll kill us if we don't let you?"
Ara shrugs. "Sure."
Leo leans closer as they fly down. "So if I get into a nasty fight, could you just smite my opponent? It'd be super helpful if I knew that beforehand..."
"Shut up," Ara scowls, but she's hiding a smile.
When they land, the Boreads get a little nervous about having Festus there. "No, no, no,"  Zethes points at it. "The dragon must be deactivated. We can't have fire in here. The heat ruins my hair."
Ara steps forward. "Stay away from the dragon, then."
"'S'okay, boy," Leo eases the automaton, giving her a reassuring nod. "The dragon's a little touchy about the whole deactivation concept. But I've got a better solution." 
"Destroy?" Cal suggested.
"No, man. You gotta stop with the destroy talk. Just wait."
"Leo," Piper intervenes, "what are you—"
"Watch and learn, beauty queen. When I was repairing Festus last night, I found all kinds of buttons. Some, you do not want to know what they do. But others... Ah, here we go."
Leo sneaks his hand inside Festus's left paw and Ara hears a click, the dragon folds until it's a block of bronze. "Um... yeah. Hold on. I think—aha!" A handle pops up along with four wheels at the bottom. "Ta-da! The world's heaviest carry-on bag!"
"Cool!" Ara gets closer to examine it. Every time Leo gets that reaction out of her, he looks ready to throw himself off a rooftop.
"That's impossible," Jason exclaims. "Something that big couldn't—"
"Stop!" Zethes and his brother suddenly point their swords at Leo.
"Hey!" Ara makes her own weapon appear. "What's your problem?"
Leo raises his hands. "Okay... what'd I do? Stay calm, guys. If it bothers you that much, I don't have to take the dragon as carry-on—"
"Who are you? A child of the South Wind, spying on us?"
"What? No! Son of Hephaestus. Friendly blacksmith, no harm to anyone!"
"Smell fire," Cal gets closer. "Fire is bad."
"Oh. Yeah, well... my clothes are kind of singed, and I've been working with oil, and—"
"No!" Zethes tries to touch Leo but Ara keeps him away with her sword. "We can smell fire, demigod. We assumed it was from the creaky dragon, but now the dragon is a suitcase. And I still smell fire... on you." 
Ara glances at Leo. He is hiding something. "Hey... look... I don't know—Guys, a little help?"
"Look, there's been a mistake. Leo isn't a fire guy. Tell them, Leo. Tell them you're not a fire guy," Jason says, which is not great.
"Um..." Leo's indecision makes Ara uneasy.
"Piper," she could do this, but it's better for her sister to get comfortable with her powers. "Talk some sense into these boys, please?"
The girl understands right away. "Zethes? We're all friends here. Put down your swords and let's talk."
"The girl is pretty," he hums, "and of course she cannot help being attracted to my amazingness; but sadly, I cannot romance her at this time." 
"Destroy him now?"
"Sadly, I think—"
"No," Jason insists. "Leo's just a son of Hephaestus. He's no threat. Piper here is a daughter of Aphrodite. I'm the son of Zeus. We're on a peaceful..."
"What did you say?" Zethes snaps. "You are the son of Zeus?"
"Um... yeah," he pauses. "That's a good thing, right? My name is Jason."
"Can't be Jason," Cal says stupidly. "Doesn't look the same."
"No, he is not our Jason. Our Jason was more stylish. Not as much as me—but stylish. Besides, our Jason died millennia ago."
"Wait," the boy continues. "Your Jason... you mean the original Jason? The Golden Fleece guy?"
"Of course! We were his crewmates aboard his ship, the Argo, in the old times, when we were mortal demigods. Then we accepted immortality to serve our father, so I could look this good for all time, and my silly brother could enjoy pizza and hockey."
So many demigods gave up their mortality, and most of them had done it for such stupid reasons! Ara can't believe Percy's the exception to the rule, she's seen him push a pull door way too many times.
"Hockey!" Cal says happily.
"But Jason—our Jason—he died a mortal death. You can't be him."
"I'm not."
"So, destroy?"
"No," Zethes pouts. "If he is a son of Zeus, he could be the one we've been watching for. He's with Jackson, after all."
"Watching for?" Leo repeats. "You mean like in a good way: you'll shower him with fabulous prizes? Or watching for like in a bad way: he's in trouble?"
"That depends on my father's will," a girl's voice announces.
A brief flash of light comes out of Leo as soon as he sees the girl, but it's so short-lived Ara doesn't even distinguish its color. She scowls at him. Really? Right now? But she doesn't say anything out loud, she's the only one who can see those things anyway. 
The goddess is asking Jason to join her father, apparently, he's got some judgment to make, but Leo is not allowed to come. Jason and Piper don't want to leave him, and Ara doesn't want to either, she doesn't trust Leo will stay put. 
He smiles and obediently sits on top of Festus. "It's fine, guys. No sense causing trouble if we don't have to. You go ahead."
Again, Ara's intrigued. Half the time he's hyper and impatient and now he's just... half a smile that does not reach his eyes. She's never met anyone like him, someone made out of halves.
"Listen to your friend," the young goddess tells them. "Leo Valdez will be perfectly safe. I wish I could say the same for you. Now come, King Boreas is waiting." 
Ara wants to sit and have a full-fledged conversation with Leo about his feelings and how he perceives the world, but she's lost practice. Before it was easy to pay attention to others, but Ara's obligations positioned her above many things, including day-to-day interaction with campers.
Tumblr media
Lily's impression of me changes after Capture the Flag."This is your first time playing so don't worry, they won't notice you," I undo the clasp of her armor vest before she can stop me and fix it for her.
"What do you mean?" She frowns.
"You're new, they won't ask you to do anything."
She's deeply upset about this. "They should take advantage of all their assets!"
"We're not tools," I tilt my head with amusement. Lily's lived on the streets for far too long. "If you're so sure you can handle it, though... there's something I've always wanted to try."
She wavers. "What is it?"
"I think I can reach the flag faster than our leader. No one ever pays attention to me and it'd be really funny if we get there first instead of our Captain. What do you say?"
Lily makes a face. "That's not a plan."
"Are you a chicken, Saggio?" I don't know why I tease her, but she looks funny when she's angry.
"No!"
"A drachma says I can get to the flag before you can!" I sprint out of sight.
I hear her trying to catch up and that makes me giggle. I move as quickly as possible, but then, just when I'm reaching the limits, Lily comes out of nowhere and tackles me to the ground. We're both lifted in the air and end up hanging upside down from a tree.
"Why did you do that?" I complain. "We could've won!"
"I wasn't letting you get there first, you turned it into a competition!" She says. "What is this?"
"Rope. Beckendorf did it, so we're stuck here until someone finds us. Or so he says..."
"What do you mean?"
"These are designed for heavier demigods," I look up—down, actually—and follow the rope to see where it ends."I'll take your knife, the rope's tied in my direction."
"Turn us around!"
"Are any of your arms free?"
She groans, trying to release herself. "It's my knife!"
"You're bossy," I sigh. "Sit tight while I free us, boss."
I squirm for five whole minutes, but the rope's only getting tighter. Lily tries to stop me, but I'm not giving up. Finally, after a long struggle... Lily's dagger falls out of her belt. 
She lets her head hang in defeat. "I'll scream."
"No!"
"Why not?" She presses. "There's nothing we can do!"
I was telling the truth when I said this was something I'd been planning to do for quite a while, but this is not how I wanted it to go. "We can't be seen like this, your rep will be ruined!"
Two arrows fly through the gap between us, one of them scratches us but we're released in less than a second. Lily lands sideways and I land on my back. 
"Well, well..." a small boy walks up to us smirking. "Out of all the campers, I never thought they'd send you."
I smile sweetly. "Hey, bud, if you can find it in your heart to let us go..."
He seizes two new arrows from his quiver and points them at us. "Get up."
Lily sits up, immensely disappointed... so I start talking. 
"Michael," I charmspeak him. "Hand me your bow." His shoulders relax and the arrows fall at his feet, then he gives me his bow.
"Che cosa..!" Lily whispers in shock.
"The quiver too," Michael hands it to me. I look at it, then at him. "Forget this happened and go to sleep." He drops to the ground, snoring loudly. "So..." I hand Lily the bow. "He caught me, you knocked him out and took his weapons before he could take me. Fair play."
The more agitated she gets, the more it stands out that accent she has. "Have you always been able to do that?"
"You were going to lose, and now you're going back with a prisoner. They'll give you a bigger role next time thanks to that."
"But I didn't do this!"
"So what?" I shrug. "Next time you'll do something better, that'll be enough to compensate for the lie. There is no honor in going down by charmspeak, Lily. You're tough and Michael's got a bad temper, it'll make both of you look good."
"But I'm..." I can't tell if she's angry or flustered. "I was stubborn, I don't deserve a win."
"I was pushing your buttons," I admit. "Please, Michael will prefer this over the truth."
Lily's not convinced. "And you?"
"Teach me to be quiet and we'll be even," I pick up her dagger.
"I wouldn't want you as my enemy," she seizes her weapon and places it on her belt. The gash Michael made on our wrists is bleeding, hers is on the left wrist and mine's on the right. "It's a deal."
