《People Meet Percabeth》Thalia Grace

Whitney PellegrinoThe Association of the Demi Wizards,
Thalia's POV:
It was two days after the Giant War, after the havoc, after Gaea. I had lost over half my Hunters. We needed to get moving. But first, rest and recover. My 20 or so, Hunters and I stayed in the Artemis cabin. I was a plain light gray color, but in the moonlight, it shimmered, like the moon itself. I heard a rustle behind me. I turned around and bowed my head.
"My lady," I said, respectfully to Artemis.
"Lieutenant Thalia," Artemis indicates me. "You will stay here for a couple days when you get my word you can start back out." I nodded. Artemis disappears in a column of moonlight.
One of the newer Hunters, that we picked up from camp named Mia, ran up. "Sister, what is our plan?" Mia had never been out with the Hunters. She had been accepted into the Hunters about a day ago. Mia had the spirit of a true Huntress. A restless, boundless energy. She could run fast and shoot an arrow from 30+ meters and hit her mark. I straighten my tiara and sigh.
"Mia, I don't blame you for wanting to get out, but my Lady says we will stay here for a couple more days." Mia looks disappointed, but nods and leaves the cabin.
I walk outside for some fresh air. I take a deep breath and catch the scent of pine, wafting from my tree. I walk up to it and lean my head against it. I survey the camp. A lot of the cabins are being rebuilt and the infirmary is overflowing. I sigh again, feeling the full weight of the burden of being the lieutenant. A Glorious Burden. I walk down to the beach, planning to just sit and relax. When I get there, the sound of low murmuring stops me. It's Percy and Annabeth.

"Percy, why did you bring me here?" Annabeth asks.
"Just to relax. We survived two wars. I think we deserve it!" Percy replies. Annabeth closes her eyes and put's her head in Percy's lap and Percy runs his fingers through her hair. I wrinkle my nose. Ack. I want to scream, "HUNTRESS HERE!" But I let it go. This is obviously not the time. Annabeth seem's to fall asleep.
Percy leans down and kisses her. I gag. "I will never let you go." Annabeth smiles in her sleep. I sigh. Annabeth is happy. I smile. She is like my younger sister, even though now she is older than me. Annabeth's face tightens and a lone tear drips out of the corner of her eyes. I freeze unsure what is going on. Percy looks down in concern.
"I'm here Wise Girl. Nothing will harm you." He pulls her closer. Annabeth relaxes. I walk away. That is how I spy on Percabeth.

Tales of Ordinary, Completely Unremarkable Contractors
"Where life had no value, death, sometimes, had its price. That is why the mercenaries appeared." - Artur Xerxes, in A Century of Disappointment: Memoirs of a Travelling Dwarf It's never too difficult to land contracts for a set very specialised skills in a continent teeming with werewolves, vampires, giant leopards, undead and, god forbid, elves. The difficulty comes when these contractors find themselves suffocated in the dense atmosphere of this world's rigid - and mostly unfair - rules; death, suffering and misfortune await those unwilling to sacrifice to bend these in their favour. In this non-linear plot, you will observe a scarred and deformed farm girl cashing her first bounty posters, a seemingly ordinary barmaid at a tavern in the bustling centre of a sprawling, corrupt city and an enigmatic leader of a firm specialising in dealings any other would consider suicidal. Watch them all take everything to the next level at every available opportunity, and then feel dread at the thought that this still might not be enough to halt the physical embodiment of doom about to do what it does best Please, feel free to review and comment! Any sort of feedback can help me become a better writer and write more engaging stories for you. I used to update once every 3-5 days, but this rewrite is taking much too long...I do hope it will be worth it.

A World With or Without Aliens
Nothing matters. It's not my opinion, it's a scientific fact. This is neither good nor bad, it just... is. I watched my entire country burn, fried on a patriotic pan after some jerk fired a bunch of nukes at the docile fleet of alien ships hovering over us. Who gave this moron such power? I don't know. Everyone involved is most likely dead by now. As for me, I can't die. I feel pain like a normal person would (I think), but no matter how terrible the conditions, I will never die or pass out. Fortunately, a lot of alien technology survived its crash to Earth, so I get to spend some time playing with it until Mr. Author gets bored and decides to screw up my life. Beware, this has a "harem" tag. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm the main character and am therefore subject to this novel's timeline. While this bars me from the sweet ignorance of Chapter 1's me, it does have other perks... for example, I can tell you that heroine number one is personally responsible for kil-!? H-hey, back off! I'm your character, so if you didn't want me to be like this, then you should've written me differently! Randomguy here! In all seriousness, this novel is meant to explore the concept of nihilism as a post-apocalyptic/supernatural-scifi/satire told from a nihilistic introvert's first-person perspective. As you heard from my unsettled main character, each heroine is going to be a different type of horrifying socio/psychopath with dark motives and dangerous abilities (most of which are psychological). Why would I do something like this? Because I am, in reality, a nihilist who is often frustrated by weird things, like unrealistically dramatic stories, the industrialization of art (specifically music), and people who think swimming in brown creekwater for five hours is a "fun" activity. Don't get me wrong, neither me nor my character are depressed, we're just malcontents who make a lot of nerd references. I feel like the true essence of an "everything is worthless" perspective is lost on most pop-culture figures. The closest character I can think of at the moment is Rick from Rick and Morty, who is a drunk, angry nihilist that experienced tremendous loss. I, personally, find this belligerent state of mind to be very relatable, and have incorperated it into every chapter's introduction. Here, the main character talks directly to the reader (and me), shamelessly complaining about some semi-relevant facet of society, which probably doesn't make much sense... it's not really supposed to, though. These "angry nihilist" moments are just a peak into the main character's everyday existence, and also act as miniature rage-journals for me. It will sometimes take a subjectively 'positive' turn, but not very often. This is because reality isn't good or bad, "it just... is". I will eventually bring it full-circle to optimistic nihilism, since that seems to be a more practical way to live (and by "practical", I mean "doesn't create mental health issues"). It is, of course, a satire. I did this because most unnecessarily emotional moments or people usually make me feel kind of awkward, so I decided to mock them. That is, I plan to mock the characteristics about them I don't like in characters based solely off said characteristics. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my story!
