Fics like Anchored to the Tides

Percy Jackson chooses to go back. He wakes up twelve years old again, at Yancy Academy, at the very beginning of everything—this time with all his memories intact, and with Apollo dragged back alongside him. Stripped of his godhood and trapped in the body of Lester Papadopoulos, Apollo is bound to Percy by a brutal, inescapable bond: pain, fear, and emotion bleed across it. When Percy weakens, Lester weakens. When Percy steadies, Lester survives. Percy intends to change things. Not to rewrite the world, but to reach the same ending while saving more people, breaking fewer children, and carrying less trauma forward. Apollo, forced into mortality and tethered to Percy’s will, wants the same—perhaps more desperately than anyone. As they move through the events of The Lightning Thief, every choice Percy makes ripples outward, and saving the world starts to look very different when you refuse to let children be collateral. Or: Percy time travels back to The Lightning Thief, accidentally binds a very mortal Apollo (now Lester Papadopoulos) to himself, and sets out to save more people and break fewer kids along the way.
