    Summary

    Percy Jackson, age twenty-seven, wakes up in the past, in the final battle of the Trojan War. He tries to fit in and accidentally adopts a son and a new sister. Upon meeting and claiming his new sister, he makes a plan. There was a joke at Camp Half-Blood that if Cassandra of Troy met Odysseus of Ithaca, her prophecies would have been heeded as the warnings they were. If Percy was in the past for a bit, he may as well come home with an answer as to whether or not the loophole would have worked. That, and now he's committed to keeping all of Odysseus' crew alive to see their homes and families again.

    Summary

    "Yer a wizard, Harry..."
    "You are mistaken, sir," Henry said firmly. "I’m aware of what my parents were. But I am not… that sort of person. I’m normal."

    "I'll be a dentist in a year," Hermione replied with a pleasant smile when Petunia asked. The woman's eyes sparkled, and she shot a look at Henry.
    "I'm delighted you joined us, Miss Granger," she said with visible pleasure.
    "Hermione is just fine," the young witch assured quickly.
    Henry knew what his mother was thinking. He didn't correct her. Not that he would engage in a relationship with Hermione. Well... if she were a dentist, he could, but a full-time witch? Not a chance.

    Harry Potter quickly adjusted to living with the Dursleys. He quickly adapted their norms as his own.
    Hogwarts? No, thank you. I'll be an Oxford-educated lawyer, let's be serious.
    But what if deleting such a huge part of his identity wasn't really a good idea? Or was it?

    Summary

    Harry isn’t the Boy-Who-Lived, and he committed a major mistake in the past that cost him several of his friends, but he can still help with fighting the Carrows during his seventh year. At least, until Alecto Carrow casts an experimental spell on him that ends up flinging him fifty years into the past. Harry makes himself at home in the past, unaware of the real identity of the handsome Slytherin, Tom Riddle, who seems oddly attracted to him.

    Summary

    Percy really should have known better than to stand near two arguing gods, but in his defense, he was distracted by the sight of the original salt water spring his father apparently kept. The same one from the famed Athens competition.

    When a sibling bonding activity gone wrong sends him back in time, Percy finds himself in a period right after the competition. As in, he hears Athena being named the winner, right after.

    Will he be able to get back to his own time, or will he be stuck in the past forever? And will that stupid sun god, please stop sticking to him all the time?!

    Summary

    Kronos was a really interesting God, in Percy’s opinion. He was a Titan God who had killed his dad to take over, then ruled for a long time and created the Golden Age... before he ate his kids and they got revenge by cutting him up. Percy related to him though, not on the eating his kids part, but the part where Kronos murdered his own dad.
    Percy very much wished he could murder Gabe. Kronos probably had loads of ideas for killing horrible (step)parents. And people prayed to Gods for help all the time, why not for help with murder?
    Or: Percy starts worshipping Kronos as a kid, hoping for some advice on how to off Gabe. Kronos is happy to assist.
