Summary
Hades places one hand over Zag’s head, careful to make the touch soft, barely noticeable. He doubts he’s ever done this, pat his son on the head. Or touched him at all in a manner that did not hurt him. Not in years at least.
(I’m sorry, he does not say.)
With his other hand, he snaps his fingers.
Or: Zagreus is cursed to forget each time he dies.

Summary
Peripeteia - noun. a sudden reversal of fortune or change in circumstances.
Luke had spent years waiting for his father, who never came no matter came how much he called. As a demigod, he knew better than to think the gods held any love for him. But when he, Thalia, and Annabeth enter a mysterious doorway, they find a strange world with no demigods at all. Stranger still, the gods themselves are different. They keep acting like they care. Like they never want to let them go.

Summary
“I just don’t understand why the Greeks treat him as such a big deal,” Marcel said “Or even the gods. Lady Juno and Lord Mars clearly backed him, and I don’t understand why. He certainly doesn’t look like much.”
“Why don’t you just ask around?” she asked him. “Heroes have stories and people are always eager to tell them. I’m sure any of the Greeks could tell you more about him.”
“It’s not a bad idea,” Jordan added. “It would be nice knowing exactly why he was part of the prophesied Seven. I know the Venus girl had sorcery and the Vulcan boy obviously had power over fire. But why Jackson? Just because they took a boat?”
Despite raising him on a shield, Romans don't know much about Percy Jackson, or even the Greeks in general. As the Legion attempts to recover from the wars, they find out there is far more to the Son of Neptune then they originally thought, and learn quite a few things about themselves along the way.

Summary
“Consider how this looks. The Senju proposes peace at the height of their power. The Uchiha, already losing, don’t have the resources to match the Senju. If the Senju provides us with food and armour, the Uchiha must become subordinate. Is that what you think of as peace, Senju? Over at the Uchiha compound, we call that subjugation by the most powerful.”
“It seems that there is only one possible solution: the Senju must choose a symbol to subjugate itself to the Uchiha to balance out the scales. For that role, I volunteer myself.”
The wise ones know: fires can warm and not burn; and rivers, if given strength and permission, will carve the land.
(Or, the one in which Tobirama becomes Madara’s concubine, and peace is won and held through neither power nor love, but food, water, clothes, and medicine.)
Complete.

This is honestly the best fic ever for understanding the subtleties of what brings peace to war-torn lands.
