Summary
“We’re not important enough to impact them,” Sally confirmed. “I don’t know what’s worse. I like cursing them because it makes me feel like I can have an impact. They get their power from offerings and prayers. If I send them only hate, then at least I can do something instead of just letting them hurt our son over and over. It’s a stupid fantasy, but at least it made me feel better. If I think about it too much, the fact they’re not even listening just makes it worse. Even this, the last thing I can do to stay sane, is meaningless to them.”
With a snap, Paul shut the book. “It’s meaningless to them,” he said. “But not to you.”
-
After Annabeth leaves to find Percy in New Rome, Sally shows Paul one of her more reckless strategies for coping with her son being in danger.

The Olympians vote to kill Percy at the Winter Solstice, long before he has the chance to turn sixteen. But the war still needs a prophecy child. The Titans have stolen the Sword of Hades, and they bring Percy back to offer him a deal: if he fights for them, he’ll get his revenge.

Suck the Poison from the Wound by SpellCleaver

Summary
“Where does it hurt most?” Annabeth asked.
Percy flexed his left hand. “This aches a lot,” he admitted. “And here”—he pointed to his shoulder—“and a spot here, on my chest.” The pit scorpion sting. The Keres scratch. And where the chimaera had first stung him.
“These are all poison wounds, Percy.”
He didn’t know what to say, so he said something snarky. “I think if I’m poisoned by an attack or a bite, it’s technically a venom wound.”
-
Post-Tartarus, Percy can sense all the poison left in his body from his many, many injuries over the years. Annabeth doesn't react to this knowledge the way he thought she would.

Octavia paused, not sure what to say. Jackson did look a lot younger up close. “No need,” she got out at last. “Tyson did tell me you were coming. Before the battle, that was.”
“Daddy sent him,” Tyson said. “He’s not allowed to interfere, but Percy is. If I ask for help, he sends Percy.”

Percy rushes to New Rome to help defend against Tarquin's attacks.

Summary
“Brethren,” Zeus said at last, as the dust settled and he returned from his chat with his Roman son. “We are healed, thanks to the work of these demigods. The Athena Parthenos—”
Poseidon couldn’t abide waiting. He’d scanned the ranks of demigods several times. He only counted five. “Where is Percy?” he demanded.
Zeus gave him a stern look; Poseidon didn’t care. The five demigods were suddenly very interested in looking at their shoes. Weren’t there supposed to be seven?
-
Gods do not like to feel powerless. Yet when it comes to Percy, Poseidon is.

Summary
“These beds are the real deal,” Procrustes insisted. “But I am not interested in selling to you, Perseus Jackson. You remember killing Medusa and not me?”
Percy didn’t know what to say to that.
Estelle, of course, did. She waved the double-headed axe. “The axe forgets,” she said gleefully, “but the tree remembers.”
“Can you remember all the people you've killed?” Sally asked Procrustes.
He only dignified that with another sniff.
-
Percy is shopping for waterbeds with his mom and sister when he runs into someone who hates him. Someone he should probably remember…

Summary
Thalia was still watching him closely. “When did you get turned into a plant?”
He nearly choked on his burger. “I have never been turned into a plant!” he protested thickly, swallowing as quickly as he could. “I just thought—y’know—it was something you two had in common!”
“You were turned into something else, then,” Nico surmised. Great. He’d been quiet all conversation, dodging all the questions, and now he and Thalia found common ground just to interrogate Percy. “What was it? When was it?”
-
Post-The Sword of Hades, Nico joins Thalia and Percy for cheeseburgers. To break the awkward silence, Percy tries to think of something the two have in common. It doesn't go well.

Percy Jackson is missing again, ten years after Hera kidnapped him. He survived to adulthood, graduated from New Rome, and proposed to Annabeth. But on a scouting trip to Greece, he vanished without a trace. Months have passed, and his friends and family are frantic.
Triton doesn’t care. He’s too busy looking for the brother he actually cares about: Perseus, the god of loyalty (and many other things), who disappeared years ago…

Summary
There was no space for grief. War was coming. But grief was the sort of tenant that moved in uninvited and refused to leave. It squatted in Poseidon’s chest even as he saw to the daily business of his duties. He couldn’t stop thinking about that moment of shock. The offence he’d felt at his fellow Olympians doubting his honour, and how it had paralysed him. If he’d been swifter, perhaps he could have put himself between the bolt and Percy. He could have spirited him away. He could have…
There was so much he could have done.

Summary
“So… you’ll go back to living at camp or what?” Percy tried.
Annabeth frowned. Now would be a good time to tell him. Joining the Hunters wasn’t really connected to the issue with her dad—Percy was right, she could easily just go back to camp—but it was a good excuse. A change in scenery. A change in the essence of her life. Her dad had decided to abandon her despite their attempts to fix their relationship, so there was nothing to lose in leaving men behind, after all.
Looking at Percy made it hard to say. But Annabeth tried not to shy away from difficult things. “It’s more serious than that,” she admitted. “I… I probably should tell you something.”

Sally hasn't seen Poseidon since that wonderful summer, after they parted ways. Now, it's nearly winter, and she's pregnant. There's no way the baby is Poseidon's; it's been too long for that.
Besides. In the wake of her break up... there's a lot of other candidates it could be.

Great Neptune's Depths by SpellCleaver

Summary
The chimaera belched another burst of fire. Percy flattened himself to the floor, feeling it sear his back and hair, but when he looked up he realised he hadn’t been the target. The last functioning escape pods were all torched, their doors half-melted through. Holes gaped in them.
“You’re going to die over your father’s planet,” Echidna said. “Neptune… Poseidon… it’s still his. Maybe he’ll watch.” She cackled again. “Or maybe if you ask, he’ll save you.”
The thought cut through his addled mind. They were over Neptune. Neptune. Named after the Roman god of the sea. Sure, he wasn’t Poseidon, but…
Was he close enough?
-
Our nearest planets are named after the Roman gods. This has implications for when the Olympians move with humans to colonise outer space - and for when Percy Jackson, twelve-year-old resident of New Manhattan Station, faces the chimaera in orbit around Neptune.
