Title: see the good things that you see

Day/Prompt: Day 3: The Caregiver

Summary:  "Women who sleep with gods don’t make it out alive. Sally knows this. “I understand if you want to kill me,” she states. “But my son hasn’t done anything to deserve your anger. He’s just a baby. It’s not his fault that I slept with Poseidon.”"

Sally Jackson acquires a roommate, who may or may not be the wife of her son's father.

 

 

Reccer's Notes: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. This  everything I love in a good remix of Greek goddesses. The Amphitrite is not the Amphitrite in the book series, which the author warns for - nor is the Poseidon (he's closer to his mythological counterpart) - but it's a very lovely what-if. A very good way to pick up these characters, shake them, throw them onto the Yahtzee board, and see how they might have mixed together in a different way, in a way that prioritized their lives over The Big Three. Sally and Amphitrite are both The Caregivers here, and that theme is repeated.
