PSA: Okay so I had an idea earlier today about Disney princesses meeting their PJO universe equivalent for example Moana with Percy and Leo with Elsa But would that be something any of you are interested in and if so what Disney character do you see meeting with your favourite Riordenverse character?

Also I created this character because Grover is really underrated so I hope you enjoy Grover fans as well as everyone else

Steven Wilde

MIST:

"Okay we need to cut down more trees if we're going to fulfil the target of building ten thousand new homes by the deadline set by the government" My dad orders and I sigh rolling my eyes as he speaks luckily though my business-minded father doesn't see

All my father seems to care about is making money and he doesn't care how he does it and what he hurts as long as he gets what he is owed so that's why I decided to rebel, my Dad; including going to environmental rallies and becoming a vegan so that I could protect the plant as he doesn't care about it

I roll my eyes as I walk away, my feet squelching on the sand on Long Island beach as I look out into the sea. I wasn't listening to my father who I could faintly hear barking orders to his workers and I continue to look out at the sea

"Steven I need you to go to the farmhouse and warn people who are there about what's going on and there may be noise for the next few days," My Dad tells me and even though on the inside I'm shouting at him for making me do such a thing but as I'm not a very confrontational person I find myself nodding before turning on my heel and walked away

However, before I got very far a boy in a rasta cap hiding his curly brown hair, who limped when he walked approached me with a frown etched onto his skin that was considerably pale as if he was sick "Can I help you?"

"I'm just coming to tell those up at the farmhouse that you may hear noise for a few days since they are going to be cutting down trees to make room for the houses that they are building here"

The frown on his face deepened "I hate what mortals are doing to the planet"

Mortals? Even though I didn't know why he would use that word to describe people I couldn't help but agree with the rest of his sentence humans were destroying the planet and even though they knew what they were doing and that they were destroying the planet they don't stop and then complain that they won't have a world for their children to live in

"I know. I agree with you man"

"Then why are you with people like that then?"

"Uh...Because my father is running the project for the building of the new homes" I state awkwardly and watch as his face falls and he looked embarrassed for being sceptical of me and judging me so quickly

"Sorry man. I'm just very protective of the environment" He explained and I wave it off, giving him a nod to show him that he was forgiven and he sticks his hand out for me to shake which I do so "My name's Grover"

"Steven" I reply

"Nice to meet you," He tells me and I can tell he is quite shy about talking to me as he let out a small bleat and I figured it was just because he was nervous "How did you get into caring about the environment more than the average person?"

"When I was in my early teens, my Dad started taking me to work with him and I saw the work that he was doing and that what he was doing was destroying the environment and I knew I had to do something about it so I became a vegan and an activist" I explain to him and he nods his head intrigued "You're not the first one to say that to me, most people are surprised when I arrive at activist parades because they know who my Dad is and they expect me to be just like him"

"I have a lot of friends whose parents expect their children to be like them"

"Yeah. It sucks"

"But I guess its not all bad I guess you get to see the people you don't want to become when you get older" Grover chirps cheerfully as if he had given the same speech to many misguided and lost souls "And look you've already started to make positive changes to the enviorment and the nymphs and dryads thank you for it?"

I give him a strange look "They're welcome, I guess"

"You are doing a great service to the planet" He goes on

Deciding to change the subject before it gets any weirder, I decide to ask him "So how did you get involved with this environmental thing and making sure we still have a planet for us when we grow up and for our children"

"It was because of my best friend, he persuaded me to take my old menters job after he uh died and then I started looking after the wildlife and trying to speak up against the people that would litter and try to destroy the planet like your father" Grover tells me stumbling over his words when he mentioned died and mentor

"Awe that sucks man"

"It does but it allowed me to do what I want" Grover shrugs as if it doesn't really bother me anymore but there is still a broken and sad look behind his eyes "How long do you think you'll be staying here"

"Dad mentioned it'd be a few days," I told him with a slight grimace

"Okay," Grover said taking in his stride as he awkwardly adjusted his rasta cap over his head and rubbed the back of his neck before looking me in the eye and offering me "How would you like to meet my friends, I think they'll like you and you will like them from what you've told me"

"I think I'd like that, I have nothing better to do anyway and my Dad will probably not know I've even gone" I tell him with a small chuckle and he gives me a shy grin as he gestures for me to follow him which with a look over my shoulder I noticed Dad still barking orders at his worders and I shake my head before turning around and following Grover
