    Summary

    Perseus Jackson is a son of Poseidon—product of a broken oath, packing more sass than sense, with the ocean’s temper yet none of its mercy, and a prophecy already gunning for him.

    But he is also the son of Sally Jackson—the mortal who caught a god’s eye and out-stubborned the storm. Barely out of childhood herself, she wound up with a child who wept pearls and limpet teeth—and still managed to keep him hidden.

    A disastrous field trip to the New York Aquarium unravelled all her efforts.

    Now seven-year-old Percy’s colliding headfirst with Greek mythology, Sally’s stuck refereeing between gods, monsters, and aggressively helpful nature spirits, and the family secret is on life support.

    Sure, more protectors might sound nice—until you realize none of them are equipped to wrangle a demigod overflowing divinity, and the only things keeping him hidden anymore are sheer luck, opportunism, and just enough self-delusion to qualify as a superpower.

    OR:
    Join feral-child Percy on his quest to spread (minor) chaos, dodge smiting attempts, and collect all his half-siblings like they’re emotionally damaged Pokémon—while fate stumbles after him and heroic deeds get done more or less as an afterthought.

    Summary

    Percy grew up a little different to most, as well as being a half-blood, one of his moms is Medusa herself. His family is a little odd, but that's okay since he is too.

    Or: how Percy might act if he was raised by Medusa and Sally and if he was a little over powered

    Summary

    Percy Jackson as he clung to the ledge above the pit felt way too similar to his first quest. But as he hangs on a few more moments Percy realizes what Bacchus meant in Kansas. This is his role alone in the prophecy. But alone means a chance to finally let loose without fear of harming those he is loyal to. He realizes something else, fate rights itself, he hadn’t fallen into the pit in the first quest but he is here now.
    Perhaps he has always been destined to fall into Tartarus.

    Summary

    Percy had, briefly, entertained a fantasy of a triumphant return to Gotham. He’d get a blessing for the Waynes and finally prove he wasn’t fucking crazy, and come home to Jason and get to know Dick and get a chance to try again and, and, and—

    At the end of his first quest, Percy took the opportunity to get on a library computer and check what was going on back home: if his disappearance had been noted, if he'd managed to hold off a direct manhunt despite his truly prodigious bouts of national attention.

    Apparently he had. What he hadn't been expecting in his search was the widespread reporting on the death of Jason Todd.
    He went back to camp in a daze. Luke tried to kill him with a pit scorpion. And that, kind of, was that.

    Years later, adrift after Tartarus, he finds himself pushed back to the city he once called home. All he has to do is keep his head down. Because he's just so great at that.
