Summary
"Matt," says Foggy, severely. "We are not some white suburban couple with marital issues. We cannot fix our problems by adding a child."
Or:
There is a child sitting on Matt’s couch. A living, breathing, human child, who represents all the pieces of Matt’s life that he’d rather forget.

Summary
"I dunno, I just think it would make a lot of things easier for a lot of people," Percy said to Thalia, when she just stared at him. His cheek rested in his hand, a rare pensive look leaving his eyes distant and unfocused. "Mom has Paul now, so it’ll be easier on her if she doesn’t have to worry about me mucking things up. Dad won’t have to keep threatening war every time Zeus gets his toga twisted. The prophecy’s done, so I won’t be bringing it down on Nico. And no one will have to worry about me blowing up another volcano."

Summary
Percy was four years old the first time his dreams led him to his many-great-grandmother’s chambers- a woman long dead yet somehow still seated in front of him, fingers grasping at her hair tightly as she wails about a wooden horse on the beach while her servants look on in pity. He feels the weight of something ancient and heavy settle on his shoulders in that moment.
He was in his 1st grade classroom when his teacher screamed at him for making up lies about gods and monsters and scaring the other children. He was eight when his mother's own visions become too much for her to bear.
He's at Yancy when Grover Underwood finally finds him and says "I believe you" for the first time. And as Percy begins to feel lighter, that ancient weight that has followed him his whole life slowly dissipating, he realizes that being believed can be just as horrifying as being thought mad.

Summary
“And why come back when so many are leaving Hawkins?”
Will slowed without meaning to. The leaves under his shoes crackled. “I–”
What should he tell this stranger that wouldn’t reveal the fact that his sister had superpowers and might actually be the only key to save this entire town from a monstrous maniac?
“Well, everyone I know is here,” he murmured. “I couldn’t… just leave them.”
The man hummed softly, then he lifted his head to scan over the woods, a faint whistle came from his lips, before his gaze landed onto Will again.
“Maybe something here wanted you back.”

Summary
“Did you know?” he asked at the last moment, voice cracked and warbly from crying. He hadn’t sounded that young in years.
She hesitated for one painstaking moment, and at last replied, “No, Mike.”
She almost closed the door, but stopped again.
“I am sorry,” she whispered, remorse staining her voice, and quietly closed the door behind her.
Three days after graduation, Will disappeared in the dead of night with nothing but a note left in his absence, and Mike's heart left with him.

Zuko's soul marks have been regularly burned away since before he knew what they meant. He knows that he cannot be loyal to his father and his nation while also being loyal to a soul family, so he doesn't look for them. Unfortunately, that means that he doesn't know when he's found them.

Summary
Joel’s on edge the entire time they’re in the hospital.
He’s not stupid. He knows how science-types tend to put the why above the how. He sees the way they look at Ellie, like she’s a fascinating specimen instead of a child. There’s a calculation in their faces that he mistrusts immensely, and he knows at once that he won’t leave any of them alone with Ellie.
They try to keep him out of the room at first when they do their tests, but HIPAA died twenty years ago along with the rest of their world, and it only takes pinning one doctor to the wall by his throat for them to see that he’s best left to his own judgment calls about whether or not he needs to stay with his kid.
The gratitude in Ellie’s grip when she reaches for his hand when they start drawing blood tells him he made the right one.
(an alternate ending in which Joel doesn't have to Rambo an entire hospital) (aka Joel being a great dad while terrorizing an entire building of medical professionals)

Summary
Sam Winchester grasps with his own personhood.
"He remembers. He had... traits and experiences and some fucking sense of self that’s obliterated into nothing, but he feels it, simmering under his skin. Like there’s someone in there, and it’s him.
But there are a million counters, everywhere. They turn his head into mist. He evaporates into some early morning fog, cold. What he was needed to be destroyed. He remembers, he can’t avoid this straightforward fact."

Summary
“This… this would qualify as a mental breakdown, right?” Triton asked, frowning over his shoulder to where Percy was still fuming in the corner. The lady at the counter curiously glanced over before lifting a questioning brow. “My brother – half-brother, technically, I have much better breeding – decided to run away from home to where our father can’t reach him and now he won’t leave. And now I can’t leave unless he leaves,” Triton continued. Percy opened his mouth to object that wasn’t what happened at all, but the tyrant only waved a hand to silence him. “He’s seen war or whatever, so if you could maybe just drug him then I’ll throw him into a suitcase and we can be out of here by the Summer Solstice!”
Silence. Finally, the woman cleared her throat and turned to Percy.
“I’m guessing he’s the one you want checked into the mental hospital?” She asked. Triton gasped as Percy punched the air in victory.
“Aha!”
Or
Getting in trouble works a little differently when your parent is an all-powerful god. Sometimes you have to escape to the land beyond gods and get your immortal brother turned human to drag you back so you can be exploded a million pieces. You know, normal teenage stuff.
