I do not own PJO!
Prompt one: Calypso
The Silent One
Calypso used to have many things to say. Words used to bubble out of her mouth, a river of thoughts, a torrent of ideas. But as the years, decades, centuries, eons passed, the flow gradually stopped until there was nothing left to say. Nothing left of her.
She was isolated from everyone she knew. Several men would at times drop in and she would care for them, nurse them back to health, and, against her will, fall in love with them. But they all led lives outside of hers, and they all left, each taking a piece of her with them.
She promised herself that never again would she be ripped apart by someone she barely knew.
Then he came. The demigod destined for greatness above all others floated to her, and she fell head over heels, harder than she ever had before. Then he left, like all the others, and she cried for days.
He saved the world, or so she was told, and she rejoiced, but jealousy quickly overcame joy when Annabeth stole his heart like he had stolen hers.
She watches now, as the Daughter of Athena struggles with her mother's request, and savage pleasure builds in her chest.
Yes, Annabeth, she thinks. This is what is feels like to be tied down by the gods!
She watches as they reunite, and jealousy burns through her body.
Wisdoms Daughter walks alone, the Mark of Athena burns through Rome.
Calypso doesn't mean for it to happen, but a Titan's jealousy can set many things in motion, including the potential destruction of her forbidden love.
Review please!
