Prerequisite stories: The Painter (if you want to make sense of the information below in the story, refer to 'Painter')
Hey, everyone, long time no see!
So this Big Hero 6 AU idea in the Percy Jackson universe has bugged me for a bit. The idea even popped in my head in 2014 when BH6 came out, but I had no idea how to write the idea out. (And I'm getting back into Rick Riordan's books.)
But here it is!
Without further ado, I will end this note… now!
Children of the Gods
Fire and ice.
That's what Ami was.
When Tadashi first met her, she could pass off as the daughter of Aphrodite. Though, to everyone's surprise, even Chiron, it was Ares who claimed her.
She was like ice in the way she didn't blow steam like most children of Ares. They dressed as if they were a second rated metal band, though Ami's aesthetics were light, prim, and proper. She did like her deep reds and plums, though.
Lately, the entire camp hadn't heard Ares cabin blast rock music so often late at night. It must have been Ami keeping them in line.
She was tact. Precise. Ares cabin had nothing but dumb brutes, though Ami wasn't one at all.
But there were moments when she could.
That's when she could be fire.
Beyond her composed exterior, she could crack. Though she hid it well. Before she could get vulnerable, she'd snap. Her voice would get sharp and defensive.
When she was angry… that was when her true Ares nature would show.
The scowl on her face was the only thing that prevented her from being truly vulnerable.
And when she fell, he was always going to catch her.
Between the Hephaestus and Ares cabin, there had been tensions going on between them ever since the camp began. After what happened with Aphrodite and the both of them eons ago, it was no wonder most of Ares cabin was icy to him.
Though being the son of Hephaestus, Tadashi had no idea how to bring up to his dad that he was dating a daughter of Ares…
That would definitely blow Hephaestus's top off.
