Summary
“I think…,” Jason swallowed the lump in his throat. He hated the way his voice warbled, “I think I’m getting sick,” he said.
“Like…as in you need to go to the doctor? Or the In and Out is making you queasy? Because it was kind of greasy-”
“No,” he said, though the In and Out was turning in his stomach a little now, “Sick like mom.”
Jason is struggling at boarding school when his sister pays him a visit.

Summary
But Henry is the one who had called, not Alex. Henry is the one who broke their stalemate and reached out, despite being the one who’d ran away in the first place. It’s foolish and asinine and criminally cruel, and Henry doesn’t know who he’s talking about anymore.
Perhaps he and Alex are destined to do this forever; a maddening, all-consuming push and pull of two orbiting bodies that can only collide with devastating consequences. Henry has only ever found some semblance of religion in the caress of Alex’s touch, used to chase absolution down the dip of his spine and beg for salvation against the hollow of his throat. He’d never found what he’d been looking for.

I'll never understand the hate for language classes when words can be used to craft something as perfect as this; i absolutely love running metaphors and they were done wonderfully here, showcasing so much despair and love and spiral and growth

Summary
The older man raised an eyebrow. "My brother seems to think you are a god.”
"And you don't?” Percy asked, tilting his head.
Sure, Hazel had once told him that she had only helped him the first time they met because she had feared he was a vengeful god who would have killed her on the spot otherwise. He had thought, of course, that she was only joking.
The man took a minute to answer. "You have the eyes of a god. I feel the urge to submit to you as I would to a god. You have the requisite reverent aura of a divine executioner. But- your smile is still too human.”

Percy, Nico and Will are thrown into the time of the Trojan War, and each of them experiences a side of Ancient Greece that changes their view of those they call father.
Meanwhile, the one who sent them there hopes to turn the demigods against the gods. How could they eventually not hate them when they witness the immortals at the height of their power?
