Cary didn't mean to do it.
So that's what she said when she managed to splash across the Little Tiber and shoot down the harpy with someone's bow she (accidentally) stole.
"I didn't mean to do that."
They weren't very pleased. Well, to be fair, her bracelet had unhooked and the first person to touch her skin passed out from her "death touch".
Well, at least Leon was there to hook her bracelet for her.
And he was there to stand for her. She'd been given slightly different papers than Leon had just two years prior.
He had been a full member of the legion for an entire year. So he could safely vouch for her.
Well, that's what she told herself.
They didn't like her.
Well, they didn't like her cohort.
She was part of the Fifth Cohort. Well, at least they liked her there.
Even if no one touched her.
Her bracelet made it safe, though.
Well, safer. She didn't kill everyone when she touched them. Just... most people. Well, and she could travel. She could use all her powers but her death touch.
She got the nickname "Death Girl". Well, it fit. Considering her father was Death himself.
Her touch was the only power restricted by her bracelet.
At least that she knew for certain.
Well, Jason kissed her. It wasn't bad, actually. It was nice to be liked.
And the legion's "golden boy" didn't make her feel weird. He made her feel at home, actually.
Well, at least he did. Until he disappeared.
At least when he came back he knew her face.
At least he knew their memories. They could make more, right?
Wrong.
Cary was never that lucky.
Cupid might not be mean to her, but that didn't mean he was nice.
None of the gods were nice but Trivia and Letus.
Some loathed her.
Some liked her.
Pluto was nice but he wasn't straightforward.
Straightforward would be nice sometimes.
Venus said she would make Cary's love life hard because she liked her.
Well, she definitely made good on that promise.
Or was it a warning?
Either way, it happened.
~dead~
I was debating whether or not this would be connected to Dalmatian Jasper but I decided no.
Edit: the cover on top is the old cover. I remade it and modeled it off this one, which is why they're so similar.

Fanfiction[ON HOLD] Cary meant pure. Was that what she was? It didn't seem like it. Her own father said to always wear her bracelet unless she wanted to kill something. Well, she supposed that he just wanted to protect her. She didn't think she was pure...
