A/N: This is my third story. Hope you like it! I don't own PJO.

It was the winter solstice. The gods were all on Olympus, having their annual meeting. Even Hades was there (though he wasn't that happy about it, which he made quite clear). It was going as it did every year - someone brought up a topic, and the gods argued about it until someone decided to talk about something else (there's the gods for you). Hermes stewed in his seat, waiting for the gods to finish "discussing" whether or not to hire more Cyclopes to work on Olympus. Or rather, he waited for the argument to become so ridiculous and pointless that he would be doing everyone a favor by changing the subject. Hermes knew it would happen. It always happened.

When it got to the point where Poseidon and Zeus were arguing passionately about whether or not Cyclopes deserved the luxuries of Olympus, Hermes decided to step in.

"The Cyclopes crafted your bolt!" Poseidon was yelling.

Zeus opened his mouth to fire back in response, but Hermes intercepted.

"Hey, I have an idea!"

All eleven other gods turned and stared straight at him. Who would dare interrupt the Lord of the Sky? That was not a good way to change the topic.

Zeus clenched his jaw. "Yes?"

Hermes gulped, feeling a lot less sure of himself now that he had all the Olympians' eyes burning into him. "Uh...I have an idea?"

Zeus crossed his arms. "It'd better be good."

Hermes gulped again. "Well, as you know, I created the Internet..." He looked self-consciously around the room. "...And, well, I found this really cool site... It's called fanfiction. You get to write stories and stuff..."

Athena stood up, and Hermes trailed off.

"You get to write stories?" she asked.

"Um, yeah."

"That sounds really useful." Hermes sagged with relief. "We all need to practice our writing skills, that's for sure."

Zeus raised his hand, cutting her off. "What's your point, Hermes? Why did you bring this up?"

"I thought...maybe we could make accounts." Hadn't he figured that out by now?

"And write stories," Athena added. "It'll be great for improving our writing skills, Lord Zeus."

Zeus thought about it. "Make accounts and write stories? Well, I have a lot of time to spare..."

"What do we write about?" It was Aphrodite.

"Books," Hermes replied. "You know, that Rick Riordan guy, the scribe at Camp Half-Blood - "

"Is that the one who had the nerve to publish a book about us?" Zeus asked.

"Um, yeah. Well, a series, actually."

"A whole series about the cute little adventures of little Percy Jackson and his friends," Zeus said scornfully. "Lalala, off they went to save the world..."

"Hey, they did save Olympus," Poseidon pointed out.

"And it's not like the mortals actually believe it," Athena pointed out. "They think it's fiction."

Zeus was quiet for a moment. Then he said, "Sure, I'll make an account."

"That's not all," Hermes said. "You - you can also write about the gods, each other, and stuff. 'Cause we're characters in the books."

"Hold up." This was Apollo. "You mean, I can write stories, like, about me?"

"Totally."

"Oh, great." Artemis. "I suppose this means I have to make an account, too?"

"Ooh!" Aphrodite squealed. "I can write about me!"

One by one, Hermes got the gods to agree to make an account.

"Hey, guys, I can make a mini-archive." Hephaestus. "It'll show the stories we write. Only us. It'll be like the regular archives, but only featuring our stories."

"Awesome," Hermes said.

"Wait a sec." It was Apollo. "How do we make the accounts?"

Hermes took out his laptop and searched, "Fanfiction". He clicked on the first link. Then he clicked on "Sign up," in the upper right corner.

"So, look." He held up the laptop. "You need a username. I already know mine: UltimatePrankster." He smiled proudly. "Great username, I know. So, you'll need to come up with one. Next, your email. Yeah, your Olympus email. Like, mine is hermes olympus dot net. And you'll need a password. Mine's gonna be - erm, can't tell you that. Enter that in, and you have an account." He stood up and bowed proudly.

The gods cheered halfheartedly, not realizing that writing for fanfiction would prove to be a mistake. And a bad one.

A/N: What did you think? Any ideas of stories the gods would write?
