Keep Your Face Always Towards the Sun
TheTimeTraveler24
Summary:
Will Solace was ten years old when his life changed forever. Abruptly whisked away from his mom and their home in Texas, Will is brought to Camp Half-Blood where he learns he is a demigod. At Camp Half-Blood, Will meets new friends and siblings like Cecil Markowitz, Clarisse La Rue, Lee Fletcher, and Michael Yew. Everything seems amazing until a trip to Olympus changes everything. Trouble is brewing, and it probably has something to do with Percy Jackson.

Reading the Quest of the Seven by TheTimeTraveler24
Fandoms: Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rick Riordan, The Heroes of Olympus - Rick Riordan
23 May 2023
Summary
During a counselor meeting a note is delivered along with a stack of three books. With Camp Half-Blood on the brink of war with Camp Jupiter, Percy and Annabeth in Tartarus, and the Argo II who knows where, the counselors and Chiron decided to take a chance and read about their friends on a quest to save the world. It won't be easy. Secrets will be revealed and decisions will need to be made to decide whether or not to finish the books. But if they finish, they could have insight into the lives of the Seven (and maybe understand the Romans too).

The Sum of Our Choices Anthology by TheTimeTraveler24

Summary
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
A special group of individuals are drawn together for a reason. They might not see it yet, but they are the only ones who have the power to change their destiny. They'll face opposition from the gods along the way and sometimes things won't work out the way they want. But this group is special. Their choices just might be the key to everything.
Anthology containing:
The Sum of Our Choices: A Matter of Fate
Yes, this goes with The Sum of Our Choices. Can be read at any point, but I recommend either first or between chapters 5 and 6 of The Sum of Our Choices: The Titan's Curse.
Annabeth looked younger. Her eyes sparkled like they had before Tartarus. The weight of the world wasn’t quite pressing down on her shoulders.
It threw Percy for a loop.
She’d passed him a note, a note Percy looked at now.
Don’t be stupid, Percy. Act natural. We’re going to Maine to meet up with Grover. Talk more later. At Camp.
Annabeth
Well, they were at Camp now. And everything had gone to Hades. Percy wondered when they’d get the chance to talk like Annabeth had said.The Sum of Our Choices: The Titan's Curse

Something is happening. Percy Jackson, Annabeth Chase, and Thalia Grace are on their way to Westover Hall in response to a distress call from Grover Underwood. At the same time, Magnus Chase is wandering around in the woods. Under strange circumstances, the two groups meet and the course of history will never be the same.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Battle of the Labyrinth
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.

ALEX FIERRO is just starting to make a place at Camp.
PERCY JACKSON wants the war to end before it even begins.
NICO DI ANGELO can't stop thinking about the prophecy.
ANNABETH CHASE just wants to help her cousin.
A battle is coming and the demigods have to be ready for it. The problem is that some of them are stuck in the what-ifs. But Luke is ready to march his army through the Labyrinth. It's up to these demigods to find Daedalus and convince him to help them stop Luke before it's too late.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Last Olympian

WILL SOLACE doesn't want to lose another person he cares about. He doesn't want to replace anyone either.
PERCY JACKSON faces a few too many choices than he'd like to make.
ALEX FIERRO isn't sure about the plan for the future. Not everyone can be saved, but it's not fair if they don't even try to save them.
NICO DI ANGELO has one job to convince his father to aid the demigods.
ANNABETH CHASE is dreading the part she has to play in this war.
MAGNUS CHASE doesn't understand the prophecies and why they say Percy's choice results in his death.
The final battle is here and their mission is to defeat Kronos and save as many lives as they can. Easier said than done.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Lost Hero
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
NICO has a secret. He's been tasked by his father to be the Ambassador to Pluto at the Roman camp.
WILL wants everyone to stop asking him where Nico is.
MAGNUS wants to go back and slap his months younger self for making stupid decisions.
ALEX is having a blast. Freaking out a dwarf and an elf, and fighting giants? No problem.
ANNABETH will not strangle Hera. No matter how tempting the goddess makes it.
JASON doesn't remember who he is or anything from his past.
PIPER thinks she might have too much in common with Silena.
LEO keeps seeing ghosts.
Too many things are happening at once. Percy Jackson has gone missing, a demigod named Jason has appeared, and then there's the prophecy line about Bianca. Not to mention, it's getting harder for Magnus and Alex to keep the Greek and Norse worlds separated. Oh, yes. And the Queen of Olympus needs rescuing. Not a problem at all.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Son of Neptune
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
PERCY doesn't remember his past. All he can remember is strange senses of deja vu.
HAZEL should be dead. She's kept it a secret, but her past might come back to haunt her.
MAGNUS misses his friends. Some things aren't the same without Jack.
FRANK wishes his life wasn't so fragile. He wishes it didn't depend on a piece of wood.
ALEX is betting on a set of impossible coincidences. Lives depend on it.
When Percy Jackson turns up at Camp Jupiter with no memory, he is thrust into a quest with two demigods he just met, but feels like he should know. They have to find Death and free him before Camp Jupiter is destroyed on the Feast of Fortuna. Alex Fierro and Magnus Chase probably shouldn't have returned to Boston. Their lives would have been much easier if they hadn't.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Mark of Athena
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
ANNABETH is getting ready to face the Weaver. But facing the Weaver means walking to the place where she and Percy are going to fall.
LEO won't lie. He's better with machines than people. Doesn't mean he wants to be the seventh wheel.
PIPER really doesn't like her dagger. It keeps showing her the things that end up getting her and her friends hurt.
PERCY knows what's coming. It's taking every ounce of strength he has not to drag Annabeth away from the quest screaming.
NICO thinks he probably screwed up. And Will is definitely going to kill him when he gets back from the quest. If he comes back.
The Quest of Seven sets sail for Rome. All too soon it becomes apparent that this isn't going to be an easy mission. Secrets and identities are revealed. Percy and Annabeth discover the horrifying consequences of keeping certain things to themselves. And not everyone is exactly on board with the plan.
The Sum of Our Choices: Demigod Shorts
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
The Sum of Our Choices series version of some of the shorts from Demigod Files and Demigod Diaries. Features: The Sword of Hades, The Staff of Hermes, and Son of Magic. Also featuring new and original shorts: Will Solace and the Golden Mango, and Alex Fierro and the Party Ponies.
More shorts may be added eventually, but those are all that I have planned.
The Sum of Our Choices: The House of Hades
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
HAZEL has a job to do. When they reach the House of Hades, it's going to be up to her to defeat the sorceress waiting for them.
PERCY and ANNABETH are stuck in Tartarus. Honestly, this was all easier in theory.
LEO knows if it's mechanical, it can be fixed. But the one really important problem isn't mechanical at all. And it can only be fixed with a promise.
FRANK knows he should be stepping up. But he doesn't know if he can be the leader he needs to be.
JASON needs to choose his path. And maybe once he finds it, he can be happy.
NICO remembers every event that happened on this voyage. The hard part is knowing what to change and how to change it.
PIPER wants to be more than the pretty face. She wants to prove her worth.
The Quest of Seven continues on to Epirus. The team's dynamic has been off ever since Percy and Annabeth fell, and Nico's news isn't really helping matters. Meanwhile in Tartarus, Percy and Annabeth are carefully picking their way towards the Doors of Death, hoping that once all is said and done, they can still find a way to escape.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Blood of Olympus
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
JASON doesn't know what his place will be if they manage to unite the demigods and defeat Gaea.
REYNA is haunted by the ghosts of her past.
PIPER has a tough journey ahead and too many choices to make, if she can even make them.
NICO wants to protect his sister, but if he doesn't let her help, this journey could kill him.
PERCY and ANNABETH are stuck in Tartarus with no way out unless they can find the Labyrinth and navigate it safely.
LEO knows what he has to do, even if his friends won't agree
The Seven demigods head to Athens to face the giants and stop Gaea from waking. Nico, Reyna, Bianca, and Coach Hedge journey back west to deliver the Athena Parthenos to Camp Half-Blood before the Romans can attack. Percy and Annabeth fight their way through Tartarus to find a way out. The deadline to Gaea's rising comes close. On August 1st one way or another, the world will burn.
The Heartless Chronicles
The hair on the back of Piper’s neck rose. Something was about to happen. She could feel it. Like a sharp prick in her arm. Or was she actually pricked in the arm? Piper glanced down at her arm, but nothing was there.
The story from Piper's point of view. How Anteros stole her emotions from here and the path to getting back to normal. How Piper felt (for lack of better word) about the whole "soulless" thing and her interactions with the rest of the Seven.
The Sum of Our Choices: The Sword of Summer
Maybe it's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better.
MAGNUS CHASE would rather get through this without Alex dying. If he can survive too, that's a bonus.
ALEX FIERRO would rather not deal with Magnus's crazy uncle that was responsible for Magnus's death.
When January rolls around, Magnus and Alex have to get ready for the storm. Surt's going to be coming for Sumarbrander soon and the rope holding Fenris is about to break. Add into that, an old friend makes her return in quite literally the worst way possible. At the very least Magnus can try not to get Sam fired this time.

When They Came by TheTimeTraveler24
Fandoms: Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rick Riordan, The Heroes of Olympus - Rick Riordan, The Trials of Apollo - Rick Riordan
27 Mar 2020
Summary
The day they came was a Tuesday.
Tuesday was particularly memorable for more reasons than that. Tuesday was the day Hestia destroyed Kronos’ scythe. Tuesday was the day Luke Castellan destroyed Kronos. Tuesday was the day Camp Half-Blood held off the Titan Army in Manhattan. Tuesday was the day Nico di Angelo and his father Hades fought to save Olympus. Tuesday was the day Poseidon helped defeat Typhon. Tuesday was the day Rachel Elizabeth Dare became the new Oracle of Delphi. Tuesday was the day Percy Jackson gave up godhood in favor of forcing the gods to claim their children. Tuesday was the day the Great Prophecy was fulfilled. Tuesday was the day the new Great Prophecy was made. And Tuesday was the day Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase finally started dating.
But they came on Tuesday too.The day after the Titan War ends, changes start to happen. For some reason they seem to happen around Percy Jackson (because naturally the strange things must happen to him), Annabeth Chase (she always gets dragged into whatever mess Percy's found himself in), and Nico di Angelo (as if being the son of Hades wasn't strange enough). As they enter the next war, it's up to these three to make sure it ends right.
