    Summary

    Behind them, the marble Mars’s eyes— say that five times fast— glowed red.

    “Uh, guys?” Percy pointed at the bust.

    “Yes, yes, Percy. It’s a wonderfully crafted bust of my great grandfather,” said Dr. Martinson. “And you—” he pointed at Caterpillar, “ought to remember that!”

    Not to be outdone, Caterpillar brought himself up to his full height, likely about a good 5’ 5”, Percy figured, and proceeded to make things worse. “My mother, a war goddess herself, will shield me from the wrath of Mars. Would Mars do the same for you?”

    Dr. Martinson let out a cry of rage and wound up to throw the coffee pot. Percy cursed under his breath in Ancient Greek and dove between them.

    “Alright, that’s enough,” he said. “Something’s wrong with that bust.”

    mor·phine
    noun
    an analgesic and narcotic drug obtained from opium and used medicinally to relieve pain.

    What if during the battle with the Alodae in the Mark of Athena, Percy thinks of different god for help?

     

    (Or in which Morpheus is badass who pays his debt.)

    I like the idea that the Gods who fought on Kronos side owe Percy (for them not getting punished for fighting the Gods) and actually work to clear up their debt

    Subject: Percy's back

    Hello, Raine. I know that you're on leave right now, but you asked me to tell you as soon as we got further news on Percy. He's home. He's safe. But can you please get back to me as soon as possible? He's not doing well, and he's been asking for you.

    I hope that you've been resting well.

    With love,
    Sally

    Percy has ✨️trauma✨️ after HoO and gets help.
    Its a really good exploration of Percy's psych post quest. I really wish there was a sequel showing how this version of Percy would handle life post-HoO. (Also, I prefer this version of the Gods)

    Summary

    "I dunno, I just think it would make a lot of things easier for a lot of people," Percy said to Thalia, when she just stared at him. His cheek rested in his hand, a rare pensive look leaving his eyes distant and unfocused. "Mom has Paul now, so it’ll be easier on her if she doesn’t have to worry about me mucking things up. Dad won’t have to keep threatening war every time Zeus gets his toga twisted. The prophecy’s done, so I won’t be bringing it down on Nico. And no one will have to worry about me blowing up another volcano."

    I cried so freaking much during this. It was very therapeutic (on par for a story about therapy)

    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.
