Annabeth Chase and Tim Drake: The Ultimate Problem-Solvers Team-Up

Imagine!! Annabeth and Tim—two of the sharpest minds in their respective universes—deciding to team up for a project. Whether it’s a mystery that transcends realms or a puzzle involving both Greek mythology and Gotham’s criminal underworld, these two would be an unstoppable duo.

Picture it: Annabeth and Tim in a dimly lit library at Gotham University, poring over ancient texts and high-tech blueprints. Annabeth’s got her Greek mythology books open, while Tim’s hacking into secure databases with one hand and flipping through detective files with the other. They’re working on solving a riddle that involves an ancient Greek artifact with links to a new crime wave in Gotham.

Tim’s impressed by Annabeth’s ability to decode symbols and her deep understanding of mythology, while Annabeth is fascinated by Tim’s tech skills and his knack for strategic thinking. Together, they’re a force of intellect and innovation, blending mythological knowledge with cutting-edge technology.

Annabeth might be amazed by Gotham’s tech-savvy gadgets, while Tim is completely blown away by the ancient Greek traps and enchanted artifacts Annabeth has encountered. They’d probably spend hours exchanging knowledge—Tim explaining Gotham’s underworld and its quirks, while Annabeth shares tales of demigods, monsters, and Olympus.

During one of their intense brainstorming sessions, Tim might offer Annabeth a cup of coffee, only for her to raise an eyebrow and say, “I’m more of a nectar and ambrosia girl.” And Tim would laugh, responding, “Guess I’ll have to upgrade my beverage game.”

Eventually, after solving the mystery and uncovering the artifact, Tim and Annabeth would have a moment of mutual respect and camaraderie. They’d both know that they make an unbeatable team, and there’s a good chance they’d stay in touch.

Okay, so. If Annabeth (Wayne) Chase comes back to Gotham and is revealed as a demigod to her family (with Bernard Dowd being revealed as a son of Apollo at at about the same time, whether or not Tim individually knew before), then which member(s) of the BatFamily & their close friends is/are:

Pulling a string of all nighters to immediately read and annotate multiple different translations of the Illiad, the Odyssey, Hesiod's Theogony, etc.

Audiobook of one of the above on 2.5x speed while they do their work out/sparring/gear maintenance, except they keep having to skip back and make sure they heard what they think they heard.

Desperately following link after link in Wikipedia articles and getting more and more confused and disturbed.

Reading the SparkNotes for the Illiad and/or the Odyssey. Also confused and disturbed.

Starting a contingency plan folder & enemy profile for each of the Gods FIRST before they even have the information. They'll fill it in as they go.

Mistakenly assuming that their notes from their high school/college literature class (or maybe a "classics" course if they want to a fancy private school) is going to be enough information.They quickly find out it is NOT.

Punch first, figure it out while they run. Apollo is annoyed but surprisingly chill about this, the dracaena not so much.

Yes, they all know a WonderFam member they could ask at least peripherally, but do they even know what questions to ask?

DC x PJO

Alfred Pennyworth Son of Dionysus part 2

Back when Bruce started developing his civilian and vigilante personas Alfred took it upon himself to teach theater cause yes his father is the God of Theater. He has personally used it back in his spy/agent era so he has quite the experience.

When Bruce explains the playboy persona he wants for his civilian identity Alfred finds it hard not to laugh. Bruce, the boy he has come to see as his son, has so much in common with his (adoptive) godly family. His heart filled with warmth every time he saw his ward engage with his domains. He was even more overjoyed when the little fledglings were as dramatic (or even more dramatic) than Bruce himself.

The entire family has shown signs of his domains and have proven to be as feral and chaotic as demigods tend to be. He would have thought he would miss the chaos the camp practically lived on, and for a time he did miss it. Until the bat got himself a bird and the chaos energy just kept growing through the years. The constants fights, pranks, plots and general shenanigans reminded him so much of his first home.

Just as Gothamites are considered a different kind of human bred (by the internet, the science community is still researching) some can be said of the Nature Spirits. Where a non Gothamites nature spirit walks into Gotham they would get sick instantly by the air pollution alone. But like any creature they can evolve to withstand the harsh conditions. Considering the manor has a beautiful garden and a forest nearby Alfred has become friends with the local spirits. This has the benefit of having extra magical security and people willing to snitch on his mortal family whenever they are doing anything he doesn't approve of. The children can keep thinking he's some sort of God (which is hilarious) but he's just resourceful.

The manors garden and greenhouse he uses to connect with his father's agricultural domain but he also plants medicinal and poisonous plants. Mainly used for his family but he does send his fair share of supplies to the camp. Because of how long he has been taking care of the manor's green side the plants have been influenced by his divine presence that they have in a way become sentient. In other words a magical garden as security. Unless the person comes or has the scent of one of the family members they will attack. Unfortunately this includes Thalia Al Ghul. He has made a deal with the water spirits so that any time his family ends in the water they can at least make sure they surface with their face up and they get pushed towards the nearest shore/family member. He pays them handsomely for the assistance.

Since Alfred doesn't really use his money he uses it to send supplies for the camp, set up safe houses/warehouse for demigods, donates to any group that helps nature heal (after thorough research and sends his father and siblings their favorite drinks and nice tea sets and cups. He even sends his own blend of tea, recipes and plant care instructions/advice.

When the youngest member brings home a cat and promptly names them after him he almost cries. He doesn't often ask his father for things and because of this his father has never denied him anything. His father may pretend to not care and everyone may believe it but his children know the truth. He is the God of Theater, he is just that good of an actor and his children are good at seeing when someone is acting. It does help that his request are most often than not reasonable and brings healthy amounts of chaos and amusement to his life. It may also be because he is the longest living son in two thousand years. So when his son asked him to be capable of communicating with his grandson feline he granted his son the ability to communicate with all sorts of feline without a second thought.

Alfred once subtly planned for Damian to bring a wild cat without anyone, not even Damian himself, known he orchestrated the whole thing. When Damian is caught in the act and asked if he is crazy Alfred coughs silently. He is the son of Dionysus. All his children have a little bit of madness but he's a good actor and his father always makes sure his children can control the madness. After all it is their birthright and inherited domain.

PJO x DC AU

Percy's powers are growing at an exponential rate. This means that when he grows even slightly upset the ground trembles and it's scaring the people around him. Alright, he can take a hint. Besides, he doesn't want to hurt anyone he cares about. Even if his loved ones-Annabeth- don't care about hurting him. He thought they were fine after Tartarus, but he can see that his power scares her more and more everyday. So, he's leaving. Problem solved.

Percy moves to Bludhaven with a single duffel bag and a rickety wood boat that wouldn't be missed from the camp's boathouse. He sets up shop in the Swamplands by the airport. No sane person would live there, but Percy certainly would. Plus, he's banking on his ability to figure out woodworking enough to ramshackle together his own living quarters. . . . okay, a lean-to would probably be more accurate. It's not like he had any money right now, and he wasn't going to take any from his mom. She was finally doing okay. It was Percy's turn to find his own way.

So fuck paying rent. Shoddy lean-to it is.

Except when he got there it was disgusting. Beer bottles littered the marshes, shoes of all shapes and sizes floated between the grasses, and was that a flamethrower?!

Percy had expected to work his way up to a proper living situation, but this was worse than he thought. Sighing, he bent down to throw another bottle into his boat. This was going to take a while.

TLDR; Percy moves to Bludhaven to deal with his growing powers because he doesn't want to be anywhere too populated or far from NYC, so the compromise is the Swamplands outside the city. Eventually, Nightwing discovers this guy bumming it in the marshes and starts using him as an informant for any criminal activities he's witness to in the area. Percy becomes the Bogeyman hermit of the marsh that people "pay" for info and is known just as 'Jackson'. He's also grown out his hair and the start of a beard and started dressing like his dad to really sell the hermit look. Not like he cares much for personal upkeep out there.

Payments include help fixing up his property, cleaning up the marshes, and food. Meanwhile, Percy sits on his shitty lawn chair sipping fruit punch and watches a bunch of goons pick up trash. It's a good trade in his opinion.

When Nightwing is surrounded one night when he's going to visit Percy for info, an alligator comes charging out of the brush and takes a goon down. The rest scatter after its siblings appear too. Turns out Percy had adopted a clutch of abandoned gator babies when their mom was killed for sport. The hunter never left the bayou after that.

Nightwing and Percy get closer after that. *eyebrow wiggle* This has gotten long for a TLDR lol I just wanted a Dick/Percy AU so let's say that eventually Dick takes Percy home with him to the Manor after getting him a haircut and Steph is like "this is not the swamp man we were promised" but Percy absolutely refuses to get rid of the Hawaiian shirts he's stolen his dad's brand and made it his own (Poseidon keeps sending him more via Hermes Express it makes him feel connected to his son).

Okay so I might be fucking brainrotted, but I have been having a brain worm that is just good soup.

So it's PJO x DC, like all the godly things are happening in the world of DC and like....

I want Diana to be away doing JL stuff while the whole Percy Jackson books are happening and like

Demigods have stories about the Wonder Woman! The one demigod that saves those that are in need of help! The sword of Olympus! Demigod of Zeus!

But the Titan war rages...do the Demigods pray to their parents? Begging them to send their sword to help? Are their prays lay unanswered because she is out of their reach? Is she off galavanting in space while the young Demigods die?

Would the prophecy that Percy is forced to shoulder Diana's? She is the oldest demigod of the Big Three after all.

Kronos is deafted. The Demigods scorned, disbelieving in the Wonder Woman.

How would Diana react? The pain and anguish she would go through? I kinda like the idea of the Demigods knowing of her but not her of them, just to see her reaction of finding out the average age that Greek Demigods die, (I think it's about 13? I think it could honestly be lower)

What would the justice league feel? Some of them gain their powers from the Greek gods, Hermes is tied to the speed force, captain Marvel is draws his magic from several gods, fucking Aquaman and his fish person things! I know there is more but my point stands.

Idk if I am going to write this as a fic but I just needed to get the idea out there hehe
