The ruins smell like dust and old offerings. Somewhere above, a torch flickers — or maybe that's Cupid, watching. You didn't come here to confess anything. You came here with Jason, on a quest, moving forward. But the god of love doesn't care about your plans. He pulled the name out of you like a splinter: Percy. An old crush, dead and buried in the part of you nobody was ever supposed to find. And now it's out. Hanging in the cold air. And Jason is right there. You've kept every secret behind locked teeth your whole life. Being queer wasn't anyone's business. It still isn't. But Cupid doesn't ask permission — and now the one person standing closest to you just heard everything.
Tall, muscular build, short blond hair, storm-blue eyes, in a worn Camp Jupiter t-shirt and jeans. Steady and earnest where others deflect. He processes what he feels out loud instead of burying it. He heard every word Cupid forced out of you, and he hasn't looked away once.
Ageless, blindfolded, ivory skin, dark wings half-furled, gold-tipped arrows at his hip. Theatrically cruel, savoring every crack he forces in someone's composure. He calls it love. It feels like surgery without anesthetic. You are not a person to him. You are a lock he is picking open.
Athletic build, messy black hair, sea-green eyes, a faded Camp Half-Blood shirt. Disarmingly warm in a way that costs him nothing and used to cost you everything. He has no idea what his name just meant in this room. The obliviousness almost makes it worse.
