More Than Amazing
Chapter 2 - Peter Parker
Peter didn’t remember waking.
One moment he was drowning in visions of death and monsters and a universe of eaten corpses—and the next, warm arms wrapped around him, pulling him tight.
Ben’s voice cracked as he held him.
“Peter… how did you know? About your parents… did you overhear us?”

Chapter 37 - Dead Mouse
Icarus finished his morning meditation, controlling his dominant mind with focus. Spring was almost over and soon he would be finished with the need for it.
Then… he would move on to the next months’ preparation.
But, for now, he had to simply stay steady. He had isolated himself from the other campers these past few months, as his conflicting minds had only made him more irritable and impulsiv...

Chapter 36 - Physician’s Appointment
Time continued to pass quickly at the camp, and Icarus worked tediously–practice, practice, study, and then… more practice. During this time, he had begun to devise a ritual, one that would aid him in addressing his greatest weakness.
His feeble mortal coil.
…But, there were issues, many issues.
He couldn’t just brute force this one—not like with his workshop. No, for...

Chapter 35 - Femboy
Castor was confused as he exited his cabin, eyeing the figure of Icarus who was glaring at his walls with intrigue.
“Icarus… What are you doing here?” He questioned wearily.
Icarus hummed in response, not looking away as he put a hand to his chin in feigned confusion, “You have walls.”
“…It's a house. How could it not have walls?” Castor replied dumbfounded.
Finally, Icarus ...

Chapter 34 - Conceptual Chains
“Hmm…” Icarus muttered with a hand on his chin as he eyed the pillar at the west end of his workshop/house basement.
This pillar could be considered the foundation of his workshop, reworked from the wall punched by Heracles earlier.
“…Now I just need an artist.” Icarus spoke, eyes lighting up as he remembered a certain son of Apollo locked away from the world.
He just had t...

Chapter 2 - Holy Moral Mission
“Peter, these are the years a man changes into the man he is going to become for the rest of his life… just be careful who you change into.”
…
“No. You did the right thing. They would have been killed, you did the right thing.”
“It's not my responsibility, May.”
“Oh. What Norman said? My moral mission?”
“No—“

Chapter 1 - Cursed With Knowledge
“What are we going to do, May?” Ben Parker whispered to his wife with a mournful rasp.
"I-I don’t know, Ben," May rasped, her voice thick with tears. He held her in a tight hug, one she hoped comforted him as much as it did her, “How could this happen? …Richard, Mary,” She glanced towards the door she knew laid beyond their room’s walls, “…Oh god, Peter.”

Most of the children in the camp were wary of the larger boy with dense muscles tightly wrapping his smaller frame, after all, they had heard about how he had brutally killed his previous mentor in a sudden bout of anger.
…All except two.

Musashi sat alone as he stared at the wall in his empty house. His father had only passed the day before and he still felt just as lifeless the day after.
His new life had not been a fresh start, nor was it one without trouble. No, trouble had arrived the moment he was born, with his mother dying in the throes of his birth and his father being left a broken man ever since.<...

Ever since the day he performed his experimental spell, things felt clearer for Icarus.
The trees seemed more vibrant and the sky seemed more blue… but there was a problem.
It didn’t seem to be enough.
As if there was still more just outside his senses… more that he just couldn’t reach.
It was as frustrating as it was intriguin...

A/N: Hey, I was pretty dissatisfied with this chapter, and have decided to rewrite it. Here is the new version, Icarus' spar with Pollux mostly remains the same but I have cut the whole workshop portion as I feel it needs some more thought put into it. Most of it is new so I hope you enjoy!

Pollux grunted as she swung her sword once more, although she always preferred her fists… she couldn’t deny the blade’s practicality, not her talents wielding one.
…Not to mention how her brother said that she looked c-cool when she used one.
Still, nothing was more satisfying for the Spartan Princess than her fists pounding against flesh.

Icarus was exhausted.
Everyday the lucrative memories of simply flying through the air without issue repeatedly came to his mind like a broken record.
Oh, how he missed not dealing with constant ambushes and just skipping all the bullshit trying to kill him!
But alas, it was not to be.
Although it was not entirely without respite.

They were leaving.
The camp had been fully packed up and everyone was finally ready to leave. Icarus had taken the time to finish recovering but neglected to meet with Asclepius until they finally settled down at Mt Pelion.
Because then… he could finally create his own workshop.
He was really excited about that.
Earlier, he had used his time to take ...

Chapter 27 [Confidence]
By theMadLad
Icarus had finally stopped going in and out of consciousness the day before, where he had awoken to a sniffling Atalanta curling up at his side. Her soft green hair covered his face, blinding his eyes and causing him to scrunch his nose from its foul smell.
He then sat up, feeling his stiff muscles tense as he rose. Atalanta's head popped up in response to his movement...

Castor was enraged.

It was too quiet.
Icarus paused, freezing in his place in response to the forest which seemed to become suddenly silent. The chirps of birds or animals disappeared as only the faint rustle of leaves in the wind remained.
It was unnatural.
