Peter didn’t pay attention to most people
It’s not that he didn’t care but rather it’s that his brain worked so fast he didn’t have time to slow down for others
But somehow, despite that, you somehow managed to catch his attention
Which was sort of odd because you didn’t really stand out
You weren’t rebellious, weren’t outspoken
But what you were, was nice
Maybe even overly nice
At first Peter found it slightly annoying, how nice you were
And he thought, ‘no one’s that nice.’
So he made it his mission to break you
You’re reaching for an item and he instantly zips by, takes it before you can and suddenly he’s across the room waving to you with item in hand
You’re on your way somewhere, he stands right in front of you blocking your path and you two are caught in a little sidestep dance until he finally lets you go by
Despite his irritating behavior, you were always nice to him, and the more he pushed the more he realized that you were just in fact…well nice
After some more time spent with you, he became less annoyed with you and more annoyed with others
More specifically the way others treated you
One night when you two were hanging out, you mentioned how another classmate asked to borrow something of yours a while ago and had yet to return it
That’s when he asked, “doesn’t that bother you?”
You weren’t dumb, you knew exactly what he was talking about
But instead of giving some deep answer like he thought you would, you just shrugged and said, “it’s nice to be nice.”
That wasn’t good enough for him.
Peter made it his mission then and there to help you stand up to people
He spent the next week trying to teach you how to reach your inner meanness
And when that failed and you found yourself apologizing to him
All Peter said was, “if we can’t unlock your inner meanness, then I’ll be your inner meanness.”
You were about to ask what he meant by that, but before you could he leaned close with a lopsided grin and said, “that means you’re never gettin rid of me.”
From that day on, Peter was always by your side
If anyone tried to bother you they’d have to go through him

Percy has been in at this camp stuff for a week now and he was just not loving it. From the overcrowded cabin 11 to Clarisse's relentless bugging, he just wanted to go home. This was his home now, yes, but that does not mean he can't yearn for better. And on top of all that, it seems like he's good at absolutely nothing. If there was a competition at being bad at everything he would still somehow end up in second place.
Today was no better. Luke, Counselor of the Hermes cabin, has decided that maybe Percy could take on a sword fight. He couldn't. Not like he could go against the best swordsman in the last 300 years anyway. After what felt like hours, Luke finally gave the boy a break and Percy felt like he could breathe. Only for a second that is, because his friend decided to take him to a new area of the camp.
Walking to a small building only lightly connected to the infirmary was rather ominous. While everywhere in the camp where people, this shack could be abandoned and he would not be surprised. His friend. however, walked faster than normally, seemingly excited to show him what's inside.
They stopped by the open door and Percy could finally see that it was not abandoned and the little two-story house was, indeed, occupied. Looking at his friend with suspicion, who now sports a wide grin on his face, Percy could not help but think there was more to it than Luke said.
Walking in, Luke chimes the bell that sits on the top of the door frame. The girl who, until now, was checking out the shelves of what seems to be medicine and chemicals turns around with a confused look. She wore the same ‘ camp uniform ‘ as everyone else, confirming to Percy that she was one of them as well. Although her shirt seemed to have switched color schemes and was black with an orange print of the camp name.
“ Hello Sweetheart, how's the inventory going?” Luke asks and pushes Percy slightly in front of him, not something he appreciates. The girl, unamused, does not answer his question. Instead, she answers him with her own. “ What brings you here, Castellan? Last time I checked you did not need allergy medication.” Chuckle could be heard from his friend. Percy, not interested in their bickering, looks around the room. Small table by the door with a stack of paper, a black mysterious jar, and what Percy recognizes as an old land-line phone. One wall of the room was just a shelf with what he now knows for sure is medicine with a door at the end. By the window, there was an old medical bed, and next to it, stood, by Percy's standards, an unstable chair.
A hand on his shoulder snaps him out and he turns his head back to the girl. “ So what's wrong with you?” She asks and motions him to sit on what seems to be a more sturdy version of the same chair he just saw. “ Other than that I suck at everything and my father not bothering to claim me? nothing much really.” Laugher was heard from the two older campers.
“ No, I meant like, why are you here guys? If you were training with Lu here, you might have some scratches.” She points to Luke, who seems to be proud just of the fact that she acknowledges him. Before he can answer she continues, “Although if you're seriously hurt, maybe you should visit the Apollo kids, I ain’t no nurse, really.”
“ No need for that, we just need some band-aids.” Luke proclaims and pats his chest where his heart is. “ You have bandaids in your cabin, and I know for sure, I saw your siblings steal some. “ she snapped back softly at his friend.’ It's in their nature’ Luke says under his nose and takes a few steps to the girl putting his arm around her shoulders. “ Sweetheart here is a terrible nurse-”
“Hey! I am an excellent necromancer!”
“Too bad that your patient is still alive, Sweets,” Luke argues back at the girl. She just shakes her head and walks behind her desk. Luke follows closely behind her like a magnet was pulling him over. Percy watches as she opens a drawer and pulls out the biggest box of band-aids he has ever seen. “ What kind do you want, em…” She looks at him kinda awkwardly.
“Percy.” “ Right, Percy, do you want Spiderman band-aid? It's a big hit with the younger campers.” She smiles and pulls out an impressive collection of Spiderman band-aids. “ Ah, no, normal ones are fine.” I watch as a pout appears on her face as she puts them back and starts to look through the box as if looking for something.
“I want the Spiderman one.” Chimes in Luke who is now leaning over this girl. “ You can get the boring ones, Castellan, I don't care.” It was now Luke's turn to pout. “ What cabin are you from?” Percy asks, wanting to learn some more about the girl that has his friend so smitten. Her eyes look up at him before going back to her box.
“ I don't have a cabin, I sleep on the second floor. There is a staircase in the back.” She says as it is the most normal thing ever. Which it was, just not in camp half-blood. That confuses Percy, from what he learned at the camp so far, everyone that has been claimed either has a cabin or just sleeps in Hermeses one. So that is exactly why he asks. “ Why don't you sleep in Hermes cabin?” The girl straightens her posture, seeming in thought. His friend hugged her from behind around her shoulders. They remind him of an old married couple.
“Well, there are cabins for the twelve Olympians. My dad has no throne on Olympus. He kinda does his own thing down under.” “ Australia?” “No Percy, the underworld.” She says though giggles and wiggles herself from the hug. She makes her way forward to Percy and stands in front of him carefully peeling parts of the band-aid.
“ Your dad is Hades?” Hum leaves her as an answer. Focusing on placing the band-aid right above his eyebrow where he scratched himself earlier during training with Luke. When she's done, she turns to a black jar on her table and opens it. To Percy's surprise, she pulls out a lollipop and gives it to him. “You're good to go fighter, Don't stay here longer than you need to!” She sings and ushers the boy out of the chair and to the door. Percy turns to his friend,
“ Luke, are you not coming?” he asks waiting for him to answer. Luke gives him a look of fake thought, Percy knows it's fake because he, himself used it many times back at the academy. Luke shakes his head and smiles.
“No, I haven't been treated by my nurse yet.” The girl groans and snaps her head to the sky. Percy just shrugs and walks out of the building. As he opens his lollipop, he turns his head back to look at his friends.
He can see Luke being peppered with kisses on his face. When the girl moves he can see a band-aid with hearts that now decorates the scar on his face. Percy just chuckles and moves on, determined to find Grover or Annabeth to tell them what he witnessed. He failed to notice his bright blue bandaid with bubbles on it.

Yeah Katniss Is Lucy Gray’s greatest revenge on snow
But Peeta is how she haunts him.
Katniss is Lucy’s anger. She’s the retribution.
Katniss is fire. Katniss used her songs as a warcry. As a call to arms.
Katniss is the fight.
Katniss is the revenge.
Peeta is Lucy’s kindness. He’s the reminder.
A boy in love with a songbird. A boy obsessed with with a victor from twelve.
Peeta is the good that Lucy was. Peeta believes in that fundamental kindness Lucy gray did. Peeta is her memory. The reminder that Snow crossed that line into evil.
Even after being high jacked, peeta warns people. He tells them to flee the danger. Run like Lucy did.
Peeta knows how to hide. He can disappear in the woods.
Just like Lucy did.
Peeta is charismatic, someone the capitol fell in love with, like they did with Lucy.
Peeta is the memory.
Katniss was there to end Snow, to stop him to make sure everything he built was burned.
Peeta was there to torment him. Be the ghost of Lucy. Make sure Snow was in pain over the woman he lost.
