    Summary

    In the aftermath, a thousand and one deaths flash before his eyes, and Ares feels them all. Every sword. Every spear. Every knife.

    Over and over again, he breathes his last breath, sometimes at the hands of another soldier and sometimes at the hands of himself. He stares at his own face, caked in blood and viscera, and hates himself for loving it.

    War is his vice of choice. It is his lover. His best friend. His worst enemy. He hates to love it, but no matter how he tries, he can’t seem to escape its clutches.

    He’s not quite sure if he really wants to.

    - - -

    It’s ironic, isn’t it? Ares hates all of Poseidon’s children with a vengeful fury, and yet, in this new world of Christianity and Capitalism, Perseus Fucking Jackson is the closest thing he has to a priest.

    Far Too Young To Hold A Sword by IStillPlayWithLegos

    Summary

    Percy barely had time to think—one second, he was blowing up a volcano, the next, he was face-first in grimy Gotham city.

    The city was wrong. Way too dark. Way too chaotic. And way too many people in masks.

    Getting home should’ve been simple: lay low, find water, don’t pick a fight. Instead, he’s dodging thugs, outpacing monsters that shouldn’t be here, and worst of all—trying to stay off the radar of Gotham’s own urban legends.

    Because the last thing Percy needs? A brooding, costume-wearing detective with too much time on his hands asking too many questions.

    ———

    Percy Jackson survives Mount St. Helens—only to wake up in Gotham. Injured, exhausted, and completely out of his element, he has one goal: get home. Between criminal empires, lurking monsters, and one very persistent Bat, that’s easier said than done.

    OR: Olympus meets Gotham. Percy just wants to leave, but the city—and its vigilantes—aren’t so keen on letting him go.

    Lost in Gotham by N0t_Sketchy

  4. Public Bookmark *

    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 six-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 Jackson arrives at Camp Half-Blood bruised and bleeding, with the knowledge that he's the son of a god and his mother is dead. His little display with the Minotaur has caught the attention of the camp. But he’s not sure it is good attention, yet.

    Only the Hermes Cabin's not-quite Co-counselor Theseus, ‘call me Theo,’ doesn't treat him like a fascinating zoo exhibit. Which would be a relief, except he looks exactly like Percy: same green eyes, same trouble making smile, same black hair. The only differences are the fact that Theo is six years older, covered in battle scars, and the black tattoo on his arm. A trident and the letters SPQR.

    Theo is eighteen, powerful, and unclaimed. And his resemblance to Percy could set a dangerous precedent.
