Hey, this is a story I hate, but I told it to cope with the pain, I'm so sorry if you can relate.

"bro, pay attention to me."

leo's head whips away from whatever he's tinkering with between his fingers, sending you a carefully practiced look, one eyebrow raised to his hairline. "bro?"

"i'm-"

"well, okay, dude," he shoots back. "what is it you want to tell me, buddy? are you alright, mate? perhaps this chap right o'here wanted a l'il ol' chat? well, buckaroo, did you want attention from your special bruzz?"

“ FIX IT LEO ! ”

warnings: none pairings: l.valdez x reader summary: every time something breaks, leo is way too eager to fix it. one day, you pretend your bracelet broke just to watch him work.

⊱⋆ ━━━━ ⋮ ୨୧ ⋮ ━━━━ ⋆ ⊰

it started with small things. a broken drawer in the hephaestus cabin ? leo was on it. a malfunctioning shield ? already fixed before the owner could even ask. it was almost like he needed to tinker, like he felt restless if he wasn’t building or repairing something. you found it both endearing and hilarious, especially when he’d get that spark in his eyes, like a kid on christmas morning.

so when your bracelet—your perfectly intact bracelet—“accidentally” broke one afternoon, you took the opportunity to test a little theory. you approached leo while he was sprawled under festus, grease streaked across his cheek, goggles pushed up onto his forehead.

“hey, leo ?” you held up the bracelet, the tiny clasp looking pitifully loose. “think you can fix this ?”

he sat up so fast he almost smacked his head on festus’ underbelly. “broken thing ? give it here.”

you bit back a smile as he eagerly plucked it from your fingers, examining it like it was the most interesting thing he’d ever seen. “hm.. simple clasp issue. I could reinforce it with something stronger. maybe celestial bronze?”

“leo, it’s just a bracelet,” you said, amused.

“just a bracelet?” he gave you an exaggerated look of betrayal. “no such thing. everything deserves quality repairs, babe. even tiny accessories.”

you watched as he got to work, fingers deftly twisting a wire into place, brows furrowed in concentration. the campfire’s glow reflected off his hands, making the golden wire gleam between his fingers. you could watch him do this all day. the focus, the determination, the casual genius of it all—it was mesmerizing.

maybe a little too mesmerizing, because when he glanced up, his lips curled into a knowing smirk. “you like watching me, don’t you ?”

your face heated instantly. “w-what ? no, I just—”

“you totally do,” he teased, spinning the bracelet between his fingers. “you don’t actually need this fixed, do you ?”

you crossed your arms, trying to keep your composure, but the way he was grinning made it impossible. “okay, fine. maybe I just wanted to watch you work.”

leo let out a triumphant laugh, tossing the now perfectly repaired bracelet back to you. “I knew it. I mean, I can’t blame you. I am ridiculously handsome, and watching me work is basically the equivalent of witnessing a masterpiece in progress.”

you rolled your eyes, but there was no hiding the smile tugging at your lips. “you’re insufferable, leo.”

“and yet, you still go out of your way to bring me ‘broken’ things,” he said, wiggling his eyebrows. “admit it, you have a thing for mechanics.”

“maybe I just have a thing for you.”

leo blinked, momentarily stunned before a slow, genuine smile spread across his face. his hands, usually steady, sparked faintly as he rubbed the back of his neck. “oh. well, uh.. that’s.. awesome news, actually.”

you laughed, slipping the bracelet back on. “good. now, how about you take a break from fixing things and actually enjoy the campfire with me ?”

leo grinned, slinging an arm around your shoulders. “only if you promise to keep pretending things are broken. gives me an excuse to show off for you.”

you nudged him playfully, but neither of you made any effort to move away. maybe things weren’t broken—but there was no denying leo valdez had a way of fixing things you didn’t even realize needed fixing, including your heart.

If Sabrina Carpenter's comical GRAMMYs performance looked a tad familiar, it's because it was an homage of sorts to one of Goldie Hawn's acts.

In the 1979 'Goldie Hawn Special, the actress performed "Nobody Does It Like Me" from the Broadway musical 'Seesaw,' and, just like Sabrina, had some trouble getting down those stairs.

“Put a shirt on—my sister’s coming over.” Remus calls out, smacking the back of the couch behind Sirius’ head. Sirius barely flinches, too absorbed in the video game to care. James glances up from where he’s sitting, his gaze casually following Remus as he walks into the living room. But then, as the words register, his head snaps back for a double take.

“Your sister’s coming over?” James sits up straighter, his interest piqued. “When?”
