    Summary

    『Perseus Poseidonas Jackson is an anomaly.』

    HE knew this himself. HE knew that he was different from all of his fellow peers. From the way he can control all forms of waters to causing earthquakes to his impeccable fighting skills to even talk to sea creatures and horses. It does not help that at such a young age, his opinions on humanity is as good as dropping sh*t on the toilet and drain it, with the exception of Sally Jackson, his own mother.

    It wasn't until his first encounter with a monster that was supposed to be just myths when unknown visio-no, MEMORIES, resurfaced in his mind.

    He wasn't just Percy Jackson.

    He was Poseidon, the Tyrant of the Seas. The 3rd Fighter of Ragnarök.

    He lost immensely against Sasaki Kojiro. Add the fact that the gods of his new world are as useless as mortals. That his once perfect visage has now become imperfect with the added human blood in his veins. And that his very own FATHER is an even more imperfect version of HIMSELF. And that made his ichor boil with RAGE.

    【Where RoR Poseidon is reborn as Percy Jackson.】

    Inspired by various PJO x RoR crossovers.

    Summary

    Reading dark Percy and Apollo fanfics? Fun.
    Waking up inside one? Not so much.

    At some point in our lives, we all dream of something more—living an adventure, stepping into a fantasy world, falling in love with our favorite character.

    And when it happens—when you find that series, movie, book, or video game that hooks you—you can’t help but imagine yourself in it.
    But that’s all it is. Imagination. Fantasy. A dream.

    So tell me—how the hell am I lying on a beach in my hospital scrubs with a guy who claims to be Percy Jackson?
    And to make it worse, this all seems to be exactly the plot of that Perpollo fanfic I was reading before I fell asleep.

    I could stay out of it. Just survive.
    But damn it, why do I have to have such a good heart?

    Someone has to save Percy.
    And it looks like that someone is me.

    Summary

    Luke Castellan had lived once before. Back then, he was a she, and she’d read a certain book series where gods were real and monsters ran wild.

    It was a fun read.

    Living it? Not so much. Especially as the villain.

    No problem, though. Luke had a plan: don’t act like book!Luke. Free will, right? Easy.

    …Except Fate, when it’s an actual entity, doesn’t like being ignored.

    (Note: Roman gods ≠ Greek gods.)

    Summary

    As they lay dying, the feeling of that they had never truly lived caught them by surprise. It was a depressing fact—they hadn’t lived in this world. Even when they were children they had simply endured, like soldiers facing the enemy, swords raised against the coming blows. As they lay dying, drifting between the earth and the sea, Perseus and Nerise Jackson realized that they wanted to live.

    So imagine their surprise when they surfaced out of a well in Ancient Greece.

    Two sides of the same coin; that’s what everyone always referred to the Jackson twins as. Now, here they were again, defying the gods and fates as they try to navigate themselves through the Trojan War, godly parents who may or may not want to smite them, a cult following which was growing in numbers daily against their will, and having the unfortunate luck of being chased by two infatuated gods who wanted to marry them.

    Summary

    Sing, O Muse, of the storm-born son,
    Whose fate is woven from a thousand faces—
    He who bears the sea’s wrath and secrets,
    Unraveling gods’ masks to save a broken world.

    Summary

    “My friends-” he started to say before Calypso cut him off.

    “Annabeth,” she said stiffly, “And Grover and Tyson?”

    “Yes!” Percy said. “ I have to get back to them. They're in danger.”

    Calypso touched his face and he didn’t pull away this time. Her hand was warm against his skin but no comfort came from her touch. “I’m sorry Percy. There is no way off this island, once you're here..” she trailed off sadly.

    “Well.. you stay here.”

    Percy took a shaky step back, his heart beating rapidly in his chest. Calypso made to touch him again, a sympathetic look on her face but he just took another step back, shaking his head.

    He- he couldn't leave? No there must be a way-

    Summary

    The wizarding community has always despised non-humans.
    They have crafted artifacts from their bodies and brewed potions from their remains.
    Wizards treat anything with human-like intelligence as either slaves or animals.

    What will happen when this society, trapped in bygone ages, comes face to face with the demigods?

    This is the story of two peoples: some yearning for peace and solitude, others craving power and enslavement.
    Wizards and demigods will only be able to coexist in blood.

    Summary

    (AO3 only. And yeah, doing this because why not?)

    In the original tale of Percy Jackson, Colton Reynolds died during the Battle of Manhattan helping his sister take down the monster that had killed his parents. He fully expected to go to Elysium. What he gets instead is being plucked to a version of the Gods' world where he gets powers he shouldn't have, bosses to fight that could maybe kill him, and feelings for girls he never really had feelings for before he died. As they say, the more things change, the more they stay the same.

    Summary

    In some worlds, Poseidon is a god who will place family above everyone else. A god who would sink the world to protect his progeny. This is not that world. In this world, he did not dare to risk the lives of his immortal family for that of a mortal. In this world a child with far to much potential finds himself alone in the dark making enemies he did not earn and Misery he does not deserve. Expect most of the gods to chose the darker or more chaotic choices that were presented or used in PJO, though it will vary greatly.

    Summary

    “It’s like Avatar then?”
    “Yes.”
    There's a pause.
    “But we aren’t blue?”
    “No, no, not the blue one, the one with the four nations that lived in harmony until the fire nation attacked.”
    Another pause.
    “Okay, so then why couldn’t we have gotten earthbending powers instead?”

    Summary

    Marceline Lovelace is a spy in a war she never asked for. Guarded and calculating, she’s been taught not to trust—especially not heroes like Percy Jackson. But as lines blur and loyalties falter, she has to choose: follow the mission or fight for something real.

    Summary

    Olympus reconvenes for the new trial of the century: Youenn, son of Neptune, war god of sea-forts, faces Zeus and the accusation of having caused the death of a son of Hygeia - a wanted demigod for his involvement in the Titan Army. The problem? His death has taken place in the Iberian Peninsula and has therefore become an inter-pantheon conflict.

    Percy Jackson is once more the Hero of Olympus, bringing the wayward god to justice. However, something doesn’t seem right. Why was Poseidon the one that sent him in the direction of his brother? And why are there detained Greek demigods in the Old Lands? Why does nobody care? His fatal flaw is once again put to a test as he becomes the key testimony of the prosecution.

    200 demigods are stranded in Iberia trying to flee the Titan War. But as Zeus’ ultimatum to all demigods is known, tensions grow among pro-Titans and pro-Olympus demigods. Now forced to collaborate in order to get home, they have to adapt to their new reality and this new world. The counter-intelligence team of Ricky, Andries, Esther and Driss, are the main eyes and ears in a society of mercenaries that has many skeletons in its cupboard.

    Summary

    The Athenide AU.

    But the gods aren't forgiving. Grief comes in waves. In time you get over it... right?
    Well, it's been centuries since the "disappearance" of the Athenide. Time doesn't heal all wounds.

    Percy is not impressed. Especially not with the gods.
    Since the myths say that they can be good. And loss and grief is no excuse to turn your back on people who need you. They take the "Athenide's" name and destroy its/her purpose.

    This is my angsty, letting Percy be less forgiving fic.
    She is the Daughter of the Father Of Monsters.
    It's about damn time she acts like it.

    inspired by Of the Fountain by Chaotic Dumbass Rouge.

    Summary

    There is sort of an airbrushed quality to her; a sort of divine beauty uncommon among gods and unheard of in demigods. And she is only just a girl, but there had been younger brides in ancient days, and all he can think is that she is his, already.

    His fingers twitch towards her, to take, to stake some half-baked claim. They are fate-bound, and he cannot bear the idea of leaving her to the world and the way it treats pretty girls. He understands them; Zeus and Hades and Dionysus. And he imagines something along the same lines, stowing the demigoddess away in his palace, where only he could have her.

    Summary

    She’s a demigod who’s spent ten years dodging monsters and camp drama—no big deal. Now she’s back at Wayne Manor, trying to figure out how to be Bruce Wayne’s long lost daughter without turning the Batcave into a disaster zone. Juggling family secrets, ancient oaths, and a legacy that’s way too complicated, she’s ready to prove that saving the world (and surviving family dinners) is all in a day’s work—preferably with coffee, sarcasm, and maybe a few explosions.

    OR where Marley Reed was once called Marlene Wayne and is one her way home after a decade of war to join a different battle: family time. She was coming home for the first time since running away after her brother's death, this time with extra luggage called trauma. She was ready to gaslight, gatekeep, and girlboss her way through avoiding the truth of where she’s been. Too bad the Gotham vigilantes aren’t buying it. They really just want to help, but it’s too complicated to tell them. Until it gets more complex, and the only way to make it out is to tell them.

    Holy Hades, she needs a break.

    Summary

    “You have an aura of rebirth. Are you sure you’re a normal human being?”

    Jason gritted his teeth. “And what if I’m not?”

    The kid’s scrutinizing glare had softened into something almost pitying. “Then you might be one of us.”

    -

    He took a second to consider the cord, frayed but not broken, a great many lives not only strung upon it but intertwined with it.
    It bore a striking resemblance to the other young hero’s fate.
