Summary
Instead of causing a hurricane in the East Atlantic, Percy kneels beside his fireplace, and scrapes the carefully-selected cheeses, pomegranates, figs, and other assorted fruits into the flames. He bows his head as smoke begins to billow, clasps his hands together, and prays.
Eros, he prays. I have an offer for you, if you're interested. But I think you will be.
That's all it takes, before Percy feels an uncharacteristic brush of wind against the skin of his neck, and a pulse of heat, near his couch.
"I must say," a low, sultry voice says from behind him. It's almost purring, and maybe it's an effect of the god's aura, his domains, but it sends a shiver across Percy's skin nonetheless. "I didn't expect such a delicious offering from Perseus Jackson."
Or: Apollo dumps him in favor of a pretty celebrity, and Percy is both petty and very pissed-off. Instead of taking the high road, Percy does the one thing he knows would bother Apollo most: become Eros's new paramour.
Except maybe he was a little too impulsive — because what was a way to get back at Apollo becomes a surprise sweeter than expected, and he isn’t as over Percy as he thought.
