Not Always the Hero: Rewritten
For those of you who follow me on AO3, you might know of my old fic “Not Always the Hero: Rewritten”.
This fic is an attempted rewrite of a fic I made back in middle school/early high school about Percy Jackson x Peter Parker.
I unwittingly helped create, if not spearheaded, the shipping of Percy Jackson and Peter Parker on Wattpad way back when. IT is my one claim to fame <3
The old fic ended up being rushed to be finished and the new fic… might never be finished. The original was not great. It was written when I was in middle school after all.
I wanted to rewrite NAtH to prove myself as a writer, to prove that I had grown.
Life has a way of happening though. One of my birthday resolutions this year was to finish NAtH:R, but realistically it might not happen, and part of that is because I never finished the ending in my head. I can’t finish a story if I genuinely don’t have ideas for a stopping point.
Obviously I still have love for this story, but I also have so much of it written in my head that it’s hard to share, especially without an end goal in mind.
So at the very least I am going to share my head canons and chapter ideas here so that even if it doesn’t get finished, it will still live on somewhere. I’ll also add a link in the notes section of the story so those folks that actually read it can find the rest of my ideas for it here, in case it never gets finished.
Like the Big!Pietro AU, it exists here and there’s a fun master list and you can hop around and piece it all together and it’s wonderful.
Heck, I don’t even know if this story means much to anyone, but it still deserves to exist not just in my head. I owe it to myself and this ship that I partially created to share my ideas about it.
So, for myself more than anyone, I will be making a tag and slowly sharing my ideas for the story here, since I have so many of them floating around but they never seem to find their way onto the page.
