Lowkey? The title kinda slaps. Only issue is that Harpocrates is an Egyptian god, I think. But also, having an Egyptian god who was made into a Greek one kind of makes sense in the context of this story? Like it’s about Percy (Greek, demigod) being turned into a Wayne (not Greek, vigilantes), which is an ironic sort of reversal of Harpocrates. Also—correct me if I’m wrong here—Harpocrates is the god of secrets. And like, both Percy and the Waynes are Hiding Lots of Secrets. I just think it fits? It’s also a funny play on Jesus Take the Wheel.
Anyway, love the fic so far, even if it’s just one chapter out. I can already feel the vibe and prose is going to be great! The way you write is very compelling!
Get ready, because I will start giving you all the extra [ Kudos ♥️ ].
Im glad you enjoyed! I picked Harpocrates partly for the bit you mentioned (nice catch, btw) and also bc he has a minor role in the Trials of Apollo series. Thanks so much for the feedback!
