    Summary

    Percy had, briefly, entertained a fantasy of a triumphant return to Gotham. He’d get a blessing for the Waynes and finally prove he wasn’t fucking crazy, and come home to Jason and get to know Dick and get a chance to try again and, and, and—

    At the end of his first quest, Percy took the opportunity to get on a library computer and check what was going on back home: if his disappearance had been noted, if he'd managed to hold off a direct manhunt despite his truly prodigious bouts of national attention.

    Apparently he had. What he hadn't been expecting in his search was the widespread reporting on the death of Jason Todd.
    He went back to camp in a daze. Luke tried to kill him with a pit scorpion. And that, kind of, was that.

    Years later, adrift after Tartarus, he finds himself pushed back to the city he once called home. All he has to do is keep his head down. Because he's just so great at that.

    Summary

    Living in Gotham wasn’t nice. It wasn’t fun. But Percy was alive, even though now he only had ten dollars to his name after spending some money on a box of plastic water bottles so he didn’t have to resort to drinking harbour water.

    Little by little, Percy began to get his bearings and become familiar with the city.

    Then the vigilante guy in the bat costume and his neon sidekick broke into the warehouse Percy was staying in.

    --

    Nine-year-old Percy Jackson runs away to avoid being killed by monsters like Sally and Gabe, accidentally winding up in Gotham. Bruce's "child with a traumatic backstory" senses activate and Percy gets adopted. It's a nonlinear story, with half of each chapter taking place before the Second Gigantomachy, and half of them taking place after, when Percy returns to Gotham.

    Summary

    Percy Jackson-Wayne was taken in by Bruce Wayne after Batman rescued him from his abusive step father, Gabe. He grew up with two amazing older brothers, Dick and Jason. Anytime he got into trouble, his family was always there to bail him out. Monsters avoided Gotham (something about the crazy people), so his childhood was fairly peaceful.

    Things changed when Jason died. His Dad shut him out and sent him off to boarding school. Soon, Monsters started showing up, and he only got in more trouble. Eventually he ended up at Yancy Academy and befriended a boy named Grover.

    It all went to crap from there: Gods, Quests, Wars, Giants, even Tartarus.

    Now, after years of fights and running, Percy just wants to come home for real. He misses his Dad, his brothers, his home. He literally went to Hell and back, now all he wants is to be with his family.
