A bed of daggers/How will the world end today? (2024)

[avirxy]

Hi! In the First Frost AU, how did Strickler and Barabra wind up meeting?

They originally met at the hospital, Strickler was visiting someone, who he claims was his cousin but had actually been attacked by Bular and he was checking to see if they recalled anything particular that wouldn’t be in line with an animal attack or the gnarly wounds they received.

He caught Barbara in the hall, asked her a few more questions about his ‘cousin’ out of concern, said cousin unfortunately passes away some weeks later out of the public eye.

They bumped into each-other again at a bookshop while Barbara was attempting to find good cook books for Jim, because this would be around early sixth grade and he’s really start to show his interest in cooking more complex meals and Barbara’s at a complete loss. Strickler offers to help, having a little experience in worldwide cuisine, this is where she learns he travels around in the winter months.

They spend an hour finding the best and most unique ones.

It becomes a bit of a pattern, bumping into one another in-town, the grocery store, the cafe, things that spiral into a coffee date, then two, three. Barbara hesitates of course, because Jim is her priority, her family, and she didn’t want to openly trust someone again just to be hurt.

Strickler is adamant that they’ll go at her pace, or even break it off if she wants to. They don’t and it takes a little more time before Barbara invites him over for dinner, to meet Jim, things go so smoothly it almost feels unreal.

That is until sophomore year, when her son and his friends start really getting into trouble, sneaking out, their basement has been rearranged several times and lightbulbs are starting to go missing from lamps in the house. Ophelia’s daughter even has some strange amulet with her, the weird glow it casts gives Barbara the indication something’s truly amiss. Wasn’t that the amulet Walter and Nomura recovered some time ago? Supposed to be in the museum.

And then it comes to a head, one final dinner between her, Jim and Strickler breaks it all.

Listen when people say they want Percy to go on a villain arc most times I see it as they want him to go dark, want him to start murdering, maiming, going full Luke, etc. And I support that. If anyone deserves to kill people it's this kid.

However, let us be realistic for a moment, because I quite like the other alternative. Villain arc Percy usually entails "he's finally had enough of the Gods bullshit & will do things his own way". Let us think on this. What would Percy most likely do in this situation? Would it really be murder right off the bat?

I think he'd be the pettiest, annoying little shit there is. And because one can't usually threaten the Gods in a way that truly matters, but they can make them sweat really hard.

This goes beyond ignoring their calls and leaving them on read. He refuses to give food offerings unless it's the nastiest shit known to man. Bribes the cyclops into hucking huge objects up Mount Olympus before they all scurry off. Finds the olive tree Athena gave to Athens, and while he wouldn't have the heart to destroy it, he'd for sure rip off a branch & mail it to her (Annabeth nearly had to put them in witness protection).

Eventually it gets to the point he has Nico on speed-dial and offers him a shit ton of fast food & a 'get out of Percy's quest bullshit free' pass if he could hop into the Underworld and yoink up some annoying spirits or dead monsters to piss off the Gods. When the Gods get pissed at him Percy just silently pulls out some safe-for-demigods phone like "hang on I wanna see how many happy meals I owe Nico for bringing Typhon back up". They know he is not bluffing.

Could the Gods counteract him? Yeah, sure, Hera gave him amnesia and it was like 90% effective for a while. However, he kind of went off the rails, everyone else went off the rails, and then they had even more Roman nonsense to deal with. If anything it both solved but also made even more problems. And a much angrier Percy. So, frankly, they're very confident it could work, but they're a little worried about what the aftermath would be.

Ares suggests just killing him. Poseidon takes offense to this. Artemis scoffs and says even Ares couldn't beat him. Everyone stops for a moment. The question is not asked verbally. But it is seen in the darting eyes and shifting seats.

Can they kill Percy Jackson?

Well, sure, they must be able to. He's a powerful kid, no doubt, with powerful allies, but they are Gods. Of course they can kill him. So that's not the real question, they wouldn't dare really entertain such a thing to ever confirm if it was true, but this is rather the layer of frosting hiding the real atrocity of a cake underneath it.

What will they lose trying to kill Percy Jackson?

What will remain standing in the face of some 18-year-old who lived one of the hardest knocks of life, loves so much it makes them sick, is so completely unaware of his own strength not even they know its full extent, and currently has absolutely zero fucks to give about the end of a reign longer than he will ever understand?

They decide to quietly shut the lid on that whole fiasco and let Percy do whatever he wants.

Unfortunately, they can't exactly ignore everyone else. And everyone else is who Percy cares about the most. So, think of it more like leaving a grenade in a locked box in the attic. Just hope and pray you've moved out before something gets curious and starts rummaging around up there.

Characters included / Thomas Hewitt, Micheal Myers, Billy lenz, Jason Voorhees, Bo Sinclair, Candyman, Billy Loomis

Genre / fluff

Writing style / headcanons

Thomas Hewitt :

This man LIVES for your baked goods

You and his mother always cook together and he eats that shit up

When he puts you in his lap and you feed him cupcakes or spoonfuls of cake, he never let's you get up from his lap man

(He doesn't care how heavy you are, you are sitting on his lap)

Loves to cook with you

He'd be so greatful if help pay for their needs or feed them using your money

Scratch that bro he'd be BEYOND greatfull

Bandages you up when you burn or hurt yourself while baking

Micheal Myers :

Stands over you just watching you bake

Pushes the spoon away if you try to feed him

But after a couple tries he just accepts it at that point

Can't cook for the life of him

Won't admit it but he loves when you cook for him

Like for his birthday or a special occasion

Looks at you from outside of your shop window

(And nobody sees him for some reason??)

He got blood in batter of some cookies and he learned to never do that again

Billy Lenz :

Nah cuz this guy has the BIGGEST sweet tooth EVER

Begs you to make him sweets

Just pretend here he gets out of the attic

He sits on your lap and makes you feed him

Sits at your job all day until you leave (with him)

He sits on the counter in the kitchen and watches you bake

Gets hurt more than you when you accidently burn yourself

He compares your "sweetness" to your desserts

Ofc he makes it dirty

He steals sweets from you and your bakery all the time

Jason Voorhees :

He and his mom love your cooking so much

You two feed eachother all the time

Cupcakes are his favorite

In the au, your bakery is near the woods you two live in

He doesn't like you going away but he won't complain

Insists on helping you with the dishes after you're done baking

Hugs you from behind when you bake

He would help but he thinks he'll mess it up if he does

After stressing over the trespassers, the only thing that can calm him done is your baking

Bo Sinclair :

He goes to your job and starts flirting with you as if you two aren't dating

Like Billy, he also makes it dirty

"'Stead of 'em pastries ya make everyday, how 'bout I have you fer dessert 'is time" along with a wink

Unlike the others, he laughs at you when you hurt yourself

Then when you cry he actually starts to care

Buys you the products you need

"Why're ya makin' another cake? Ya a'ready got enough in tha back" also followed by a wink and an ass slap

Like I said, makes it dirty

He overall loves you baking

Candyman :

In this au, he lives with you and not in a mirror

Helps you bake everytime

For your birthdays and other occasions, he bakes instead of you

While you two wait for whatever dessert you're making to bake, he showers you in kisses, hugs, and slow dances with you

Praises you every time

If you wear an apron, he ties it for you and when he's done he gives you a neck kiss

Thinks his bees and hook get in the way when you're cooking but you shut that down pretty quickly

He feeds you and kisses you after each bite

Billy Loomis :

He smugges some ingredients (cream, frosting, etc) on your face

He does it so he can kiss/lick it off of you

Visits you at your job

Mainly visits you when it's near your break time

Last time he helped you bake, he burnt the dessert so uh never again

He just sits there lookin pretty watching you bake

One time for his birthday you made him a horror themed cake and when you cut it, red jam spills out the center like blood

He fell in love with you that same day

Part 1

'Four men in uniform'

It was dark and rainy day. Four marines carried a small coffin on their shoulders, the coffin was light a little too light. Everyone in the funeral was wearing black with a few colors popping out mostly from a poppy flower

'To carry home...'

Few Marines had tears in their eyes with home down right crying and sobbing not caring who saw or heard. Why does it have to happen to an innocent child? Everyone thought of it but they have no answer

'My little soldier...'

As the four Marines comes closer the three Admirals could help but be filled with despair. Kizaru an admiral known from his bright yellow suit is now adorned with a black suit and a bright red poppy on his breast pocket

Kizaru never felt this way; atleast not in a long time. He never thought a sweet innocent girl who's always baking cookies and giving poppy flowers to everyone would die in such a cruel way

Aokiji never felt this angry in his life. Yes he experience anger before but not like this. He was angry at everyone. Angry at Marines. Angry at akainu. And angry at himself for not saving a charming and sweet girl who always gives and never except returns

Aokiji grips the frosted poppy flower at his hand, he remembers the first day he met her she was so so sweet, Full of love and life. But not anymore. Aokiji bitter said in his head while glaring at akainu

'What could she do? Should have been a rockstar'

Should could have been a rockstar. The girl already had a beautiful voice and a cute charm

'But she didn't have the money for a guitar'

The little girl asked her father for a small guitar but he just dissmissed the idea saying that it would just be a waste of time making the girl sad but nodded before walking away

'What could she do? Should have be a politician'

The girl was sighing as her private tutor went over some political subject making her instantly bored. The little girl never cared about politics but if that's want her father wants her to learn then so be it

'But she never had proper education'

The little girl was giggling was the tutor panic trying to find the girl. The said girl was hiding behind a bush in her small little garden filled with flowers and little insect and animals who keep her company besides the maids, Butler's, and other workers in the mansion

'What could she do? Should've been a mother'

It was late in the night the little girl was wondering inside the big mansion trying to find confront. The girl sigh as she wipes a few tears, the girl was visibly upset because her father is away for months. The girl huffed as she goes up and up towards the attic

The girl was banned from the attic from unknown reason by her father. The little girl curiousity got the better of her and opening the attic door. As soon as she opens the door she let out a cough as the attic was filled with dust and cobwebs but it didn't stop her

The girl looks around the room as she noticed a huge painting that was covered by a huge black piece of cloth making her interested. The girl walks towards the painting and grabbing the cloth before pulling it down gently revealing a woman with a huge smile

The girls eyes widen as she notice her father smiling then it clicks to her. It was her mother and father. She examines the painting, the woman was sitting down wearing a beautiful white dress with her hair tied in a bun with a veil behind her. Her father was surprisingly smiling wearing a white and red wedding suit and his arm around the woman shoulder

The girl couldn't help but feel saddened. Saddened that she never saw her mother. Saddened that her father never smiles. Saddened that she killed her mother

'But she never even made it to her twenties'

The four Marines reach the front of the funeral where a small hole was dug. One of the Marines bit his lip, it was koby trying not to cry but couldn't stop himself which made his friend helmeppo who just stayed unusually quiet as tears run down his long face

'What a waste'

A few Marines took off their hats and putting it to there chest and bowing there head out of respect, including akainu and Sengoku.

'Army dreamers'

"Any last words?" Sengoku ask his voice loud and clear but no one cares to speak; most Marines were glancing at akainu.

'Oh what a waste of'

Sengoku just sigh as he signals the four Marines to lower down the small coffin. The Marines then slowly lowers the coffin as a lot of people throws poppy flowers as they back away

The coffin was now officially lowered down and the Marines starts shoveling the dirt back as people more and more disaapear.

An hour pass as akainu was the only one left. He was staring down at the headstone

'[Name]

In golden fields, a child's laughter rang,

Life's vibrant song, forever she sang.

But fate's cruel twist took her away,

Leaving memories that forever stay.

A beloved friend and daughter'

Tears run down akainu- no sakazuki face as he falls to his knees and gripping the soft grass. The headstone staring back, the headstone as fillwed with Plushies, toys, sweets, candles, flowers and cards

'Army dreamers'

As sakazuki starts speaking saying all the things he wants to do and experience with her and never able to do. Telling her all his flaws and what he failed to do and what he should have done.

A few hours pass as sakazuki reluctantly left as it was getting dark, promising his daughter to return the very next day. He gave the headstone a Pat almost like he's patting his daughter head

As he left, a shadow appear with a mischievous and evil grin with a plan
