So, think about this: after TOA, Grover’s back home at camp. Another satyr ends up confronting him. Now, I head cannon that Grover was physically 6 when his mom somehow died, and we can all guess what happened to his dad. It’s also cannon that Grover is small for his age, so born maybe premature? So, Grover grew up alone at Camp, and was kind of bullied and didn’t have a family or many friends until Percy. Anyway, this other satyr used to bully him when they were kids, as he’s older than Grover. He starts talking bad about Grover, bringing up how he’s the black sheep, that Pan must have chosen wrong, etc. Grover gets all red in the face as a crowd starts to form. One camper even runs to find Chiron, so he’s approaching and about to break up the potential fight. Meanwhile, through the Empathy Link, Percy’s at home and can feel Grover’s anger and embarrassment. Back at Camp, the other satyr starts insulting his parents, and then mentions how Grover has no backbone and is so weak. Grover suddenly switches gears, and instead of physically fighting, he starts listing what he’s survived through like the Underworld, the Labyrinth, second hand torture of Tartarus, etc. To finish it off, he mentions that he’s done all of this before turning physically 18, and asked what the other satyr has done. He also then states that after enduring all of that, he’d finally grown a backbone (unlike when he was younger). The gathered campers start cheering, and Grover feels proud of himself, Chiron tells Grover well done, and now Grover is absolutely beaming. Unfortunately, in a fit of anger, the other satyr throws a rock or something, and it hits just right to break Grover’s leg(s). Cue Grover screaming in absolute agony, strong enough for the very tress to shake as they sense their lord’s pain. While some of the campers keep the other satyr from escaping, Will rushes forward to help. Grover thankfully passes out from the pain, but Chiron is worried about Grover and actually slings him over his back to get him back to the Big House(or maybe the Apollo cabin?). Everyone is still running around and it’s chaos as they try to stabilize Grover and his broken leg(s). Meanwhile, back with Percy, all he knows is that there was anger and embarrassment, then pride, then gut wrenching pain. He immediately calls Mrs. OLeary, and Shadow Travels to Camp, absolutely furious and worried. When he arrives, Grover’s stabilized, and Percy gets dead serious and asks what happened. After the situation is explained, Percy is beyond furious for someone hurting his best friend. But then Grover groans in his sleep, and Percy realized that his anger is hurting him through the Link. (I head cannon that they can get physical injuries through the Link, so Grover gets a headache from Percy’s anger and Percy’s leg(s) are hurting.) Percy immediately puts up mental walls to shield Grover.
I don’t really know what happens after that, I guess Grover eventually waking up and healing? Somewhere in there someone has to tell Juniper what happened to her boyfriend, and she’s understandably angry too, especially cause she can’t go see him because he’s too far away from her tree.
Anyway, can someone please make this a fanfic or something? Thank you!
