"Are you a demigod?" Natasha repeated
"I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. What the hell is a demigod?" he answered. HOW DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT THE GODS?! If it weren't for his voice crack and his eyes continuously darting around the room, he might have sold that lie. HE COULDN'T HELP IT!
She narrowed her eyes "you're lying"
"Am not" wow, he sounded like a child.
She sighed mumbled something in GREEK!? That sounded suspiciously like Liar. He's a demigod; damn, I hate these kinds of people.
"Hey, you can trust us. Your secret is safe with us," Steve said soothingly.
Percy snorted, "What secret? I have no secret. And I have no idea what you people are talking about" did it sell?
Tony facepalmed dramatically. Wow. Smooth, real smooth.
"Let's make this easier," he said "we are also demigods," he said, gesturing to the team.
To say Percy was shocked was an understatement, and his shock must have been shown on his face because Tony started cracking up.
"Disowned," added Hawkeye.
Okay, WHAT?! I. Am. The. Most. Confused. And his very intelligent answer was "uh?"
Tony cracked up again. "That's your response?" he asked through fits of laughter.
Percy stood there blinking rapidly, trying to sort out his confusion The Avengers Demigods?! What?! Who would've thought?
"Uh. Okay. Can someone explain all this? I'm the most confused right now. Can I have a cup of water?" He rambled. And guess what, Tony laughed again.
"You should see your face," he wheezed.
"Are you a demigod?" Natasha says once more. Forcefully.
"Uh. I guess you could say that. Don't matter no more considering that I'm disowned".
Now that got a reaction out of the team. Finally. Yes.
Tony's reaction was one of absolute shock; he fell back into his chair with his mouth open. Natasha's wasn't much different even though she tried to hide it. Clint's reaction wasn't really anything. Bruce had an 'I told you so' look on his face. And Thor was eating pop tarts.
Tony regained his senses "Your disowned?" he asked incredulously "What did you do?"
"Me? Oh, I did nothing. Honest." He raised an eyebrow
"I'M TELLING THE TRUTH! IT WAS A FALSE ACCUSATION. Now, what did you do?" Percy asked him, "and who disowned you?" the avengers leaned forward "wait...you guys don't know?"
"Yeah, he never told us," Bruce said
"And I'm not gonna tell you" was Tony's ever so snarky reply.
"Who's your godly parent," Steve asked.
"Uh, Poseidon"
That caused a lot of jaw-dropping.
"WHAT!? WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OATH?!"
"Oh, the oath is still there. He just broke it, like Zeus." Everyone sighed. "Can I know your godly parents?"
"Hephaestus," Tony grumbled. Oh my gods, Imagine if Leo found out Tony Stark was his brother.
"Ares," Steve replied. Not surprising. Clarisse is gonna have a field trip.
"Nemesis" That was Natasha. Not expecting that
"Athena," Bruce said quietly. He figured
"Apollo," Clint said through a mouthful of Pop-tarts. Now that one, He could've guessed.
"Cool. I beat Ares in a fight when I was 12. Athena hates me. And Apollo is a jerk".
Cue the jaw-dropping. And the screaming. And the confusion. And the head shaking. And the slumping in seats. And the dropping of Pop-Tarts. And the Calvin & Hobbes book flying. Wait, who was reading Calvin & Hobbes?
"Sit down, gentlemen and Natasha, it's storytime."
"We're already sitting," inquired Tony.
"Figure of speech Tones. Figure of speech".
All the Avengers leaned forward in their seats.
"Guys, come on. It's a long story. You might as well get comfortable and lean back in your seats." What?! It's true.
They all gave him a look that said nothing short of 'seriously.'
"I'm serious" was he really about to do this?
He started his tale
