How about this idea:

Several characters from Percy Jackson — the Prophecy Seven + Reyna, Octavian, Nico, and Will (or another random set of characters) — end up in the world of Hades 2.

After Kronos’ "re-education" and starting from Erebus…

✦ Erebus → The Crossroads (Hello, Odysseus) → Erebus again (Hello there, Lady Artemis) → Oceanus (Scylla and the Sirens; I feel like someone’s going to punch Narcissus) → Elysium (Achilles, Patroclus, Theseus… Percy has a mental breakdown over Asterius. Maybe add Hector or someone else (I vote for Neoptolemus!!) Penelope could be there too) → Asphodel / Its Fields (Orpheus! Eurydice?) → Tartarus (Sisyphus and company) → The House of Hades — where they have a chat with Kronos, and he sends them back up to Olympus. (Thanatos is flirting with Zagreus, Zag himself, the lovely Melinoë, Persephone, Hypnos, and Nyx. Annabeth and Percy’s eyes are definitely twitching.)

➤ Shortcut via Charon → The City of Ephyra (Yes — meeting Heracles. Very fun for Thalia, very awkward for Jason.) → The Rift of Thessaly (Hello, Icarus — Percy saw visions of your death back in the Labyrinth) → Mount Olympus (The demigods will have many questions for Mr. D once they get back to camp. At minimum: what’s with the leopard-print underwear. And of course, a meeting with Athena and Prometheus.) → Olympus proper — figuring out how to get home, and sending the kids back.

Extra:

The demigods could be split into small groups. Blessings from the gods and their abilities could be explored in interesting ways. Melinoë or Zagreus might share weapons or treasures with them.

So yeah.

Another Ariadne, the sketch one

If you don't write it yourself, no one else will.

I'm very grateful for the feedback and engagement on my new (and first) fanfic. Thanks to them, I wrote the second chapter in record time for what was originally meant to be a drabble. I'm a bit hesitant to plan and think about writing the fourth chapter, considering what I have in mind will be difficult for me. I'll probably change my mind and ditch the fourth chapter, moving the planned storyline to the epilogue. But for now, if you're interested in some small spoilers for the third chapter...

Or watch here

I still think it's cringey and a bit choppy in terms of art direction, but I put enough effort into it that I don't want to delete it or abandon it. I think it's helpful to post it on TikTok, since that's where I originally found BP! Au. There are some inaccuracies in the animatic itself, like Mist's appearance or Clarissa's spear, but I hope it makes at least someone smile.

Because once I post this, my conscience won't let me drop it. And yeah, judging by what I'm coming up with in terms of ideas and the storyboard, this will be an animatic-slideshow specifically for "Misaligned Stars." I re-read it one extra time just for this. It seems like I might be heading for a Broken Pantheon breakdown.
