Summary
They should've known that it could happen.
And when it happened, everyone and the entire world paid the price.
Realising how their choices have contributed to the end of everything, the Fates seek the last remaining demigod, Percy Jackson, as their final hope to correct the many mistakes that led to this moment.
Given the chance to make things better for his loved ones and so many lost souls, Percy embraces the one thing that his dad once said to him. The sea does not like to be restrained, and for the sake of the world, Percy will no longer be restrained.
Ruthlessness is a mercy, and those who stand against Percy will very quickly find themselves at his mercy.

Summary
Hermes’ gaze locked on Luke—his son, his failure, his second chance. And in that breath, the world narrowed. He became painfully aware of everything: the soft groan of floorboards beneath him, the low, constant hum of the refrigerator in the dark beyond the hall, the quiet pulse of the flashlight as it trembled against the stack of books.
The words rose slow and careful, dragged from somewhere beneath regret and years of silence.
They tasted like ash in his mouth.
“You remember.”
Or: In which both Hermes and Luke are somehow thrown back in time.

Summary
If he had been given a choice, he would have made it different.
He would have given Luke a better family this time — a stronger name, a finer bloodline. He would have made sure that the boy was his by blood again, stamped and sealed under Olympus itself.
A half-blood, after all, was still better than just a mortal.
Instead, this was what the Fates allowed him: Jason Peter Todd, born human and breakable, tossed into a city that ate its young.
Or: In which Luke Castellan is reborn as Jason Todd — a boy doomed to fall all over again.

Summary
This fanfic follows the events of the first 5 books of Percy Jackson, through the eyes of my male oc that becomes Lukes boyfriend, and his best friend a girl younger then him named Cassiopeia Georgiou. Everything in the story will remain as is based of the books events meaning that all the events that happened in the books including the tragic parts will remain untouched and will occur. Although I had to do a few alterations in the story in order to fit my two oc's. Also in regards to the tags I really didn't know what to put to explain this story but the main focus will be on the male oc and Luke (just be patient until they get together though...)

Summary
He killed himself to make it right.
It should’ve ended there.
But Luke came back—divine, gilded, and tethered to the father who never cared for him in life. Now he carries lost children through the dark. Olympus has shut its gates. And somewhere in San Francisco, a disgraced augur lights candles at his feet like Luke’s the only god still listening.
And from afar…
Rome watches.
(Or: Luke becomes a god. It’s lonelier than he expected, worship is unsettling, and the Roman gods are watching—with interest.)
Note: Roman gods ≠ Greek gods

Summary
In one world, Luke Castellan took the cursed blade and ended his life.
He died a hero, and in death, Elysium awaited him.
In this world, Luke Castellan still took the blade and struck true. But he did not wake in the Underworld.
The Fates had interpreted the Prophecy just a little differently.
For a soul could mean many things. It was a mortal invention, a mortal blight.
And so, though Luke killed himself, he did not die.
His soul—his mortality—was reaped.
And what remained was something else entirely: ichor in his veins, bones steeped in divinity, and the domains of a Titan, claimed as his own.
Or: In which Luke Castellan lives.

Summary
Kronos was very angry with Luke and sent him to Ancient Greece as punishment, thinking that he would suffer. The Fates predicted this in his destiny and gave him a task that could change the lives of demigods in the future. Also, during his trip to the past, a side effect occurred and now Luke is forced to remain in the body of a teenager as he travels, but he finds the love and care he has long dreamed of, and an unexpected turn in his life that he did not expect.

A quote Percy briefly remembered reading in a book. And remember Luke, because what is the son of Hermes but a doomed hero, a tragedy who couldn’t be saved?

Summary
Thalia Grace is twelve when she dies.
She’s twelve and the furies and hellhounds are ripping into her skin and it hurts like the styx is trying to burn her up from the inside. She’s twelve and her blood soaks into the earth, her body twisting into the bark and veins of the tree.
She’s twelve and the god who never cared about her is turning her into some immortal monument of her death, like he cared, if he did he should have done something, but now she can’t feel anything anymore.
(or, thalia grace and her history of being cursed)

Summary
"So, what's my fatal flaw?" He asked jokingly after a long, comfortable silence. He couldn't quite see Thalia in the dim light, but knowing her as well as he did, he didn't actually had to.
"Well, that's easy," said Thalia and he could hear the smirk in her voice. "You're a dirty thief, Luke Castellan." Luke made a face.
"What's mine?" Asked Thalia.
"Well, that's easy," he teased with a wide grin that made Thalia groan. "You're an insensitive jerk, Thalia Grace." Thalia laughed, Annabeth stirred in her sleep and they stayed quiet for the rest of the night.
Thalia Grace's fatal flaw was not being insensitive, it was not being reckless, it was not being arrogant and Luke knew it better than anyone else. He didn't say anything, though, because this wasn't the kind of things anyone wanted to hear, not even from your own best friend.
...
They were called fatal for a reason.
