    Summary

    He stirs the hot chocolate, thinking. He can't tell her. Can't tell her how he likes the burn, just a bit. Likes the pain, just a bit. It takes away from the joy of it, true, but it's the little things that ground him. Reminds him that despite his power, despite his unbreakable skin and the fact that he can feel the potential of immortality pulling at him in the moments between sleep and being awake, despite his emphatic no to Zeus. Some days he wishes he could bleed, just to see that it was red, not gold. She knows all that probably. Or at least, that's how he justifies not telling her.

    Summary

    Poseidon was often called the father of monsters and even when he loathed to admit it, the name was apt.
     

    So when Perseus was born, Poseidon was prepared for the worst, another head, three times too many fingers, whatever it was, he would love it and try to protect it.

    Imagine his surprise, when somehow, someway, Percy came out with ten fingers and ten toes, perfectly normal looking and with a powerful lung. Of course, he’d had demigod children in the past, but he wasn't often graced with a real child.

    Who could then blame him, when he watched Perseus closely growing up, chest swollen with pride because he was perfect? Perfect like Triton, his heir, and so funny. It felt only natural to claim Perseus as his, the first opportunity he got. He was so proud to be able to present such a courageous and normal child.

     

    (Percy is anything but)

    Percy in a way he could've been, had things been slightly different

    Summary

    It wasn't Poseidon who met Sally on that beach on Montauk, but rather a far older, much more ancient version of him.

    Percy is born far older and younger than he should be.

    Summary

    There's far too much divinity in Percy Jackson. It oozes from him, to the point where he's sometimes mistaken for Poseidon. Percy doesn't know this yet. All he knows is that this nereid is asking to borrow five drachmas.
