Out of the fire and into the frying pan, Arthur has quite the adventure ahead of himself in Mainland England.
An ambitious, young "fellow reporter" might be able to help him find where Percy got to after all these years. All he has to do in return? Become just a teeny smidge famous.
Out of Wellington Wells, Arthur struggles to cope with his trauma and adjust to the new truths and lives that await him. And when it comes down to some tough choices, in the midst of a humanitarian crisis, will he be able to choose others over his own self-preservation?

ꜱᴘɪᴅᴇʀ ʙɪᴛᴇꜱ: ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴇʀᴄᴀʙᴇᴛʜ/ꜱᴏʟᴀɴɢᴇʟᴏ ᴘʀᴏᴊᴇᴄᴛ by TheRedSourPatchKid

ᴀɴɴᴀʙᴇᴛʜ ɪꜱ ɪɴᴅᴇᴘᴇɴᴅᴇɴᴛ. She's living the life. No, she doesn't work at the architecture firm of her dreams, or any architecture firm, and she hasn't been in a steady relationship since she was a teenager. But who says a bartender can't be successful? Her biggest problem is the corpse that still hasn't gone to Tartarus. Oh, the wedding invite that came in the mail? No worries. She threw that out yesterday. ɴɪᴄᴏ ɪꜱ ꜰʀɪᴇɴᴅʟʏ. No, really! He's everyone's favorite counselor at Camp Half-Blood. The bachelor's life is everything and more. He's actually looking forward to being a groomsman in his half-sister's wedding, even though there's sure to be tons of awkward encounters. Bring it on. He's not scared anymore. He'll even buy the next round. ᴘᴇʀᴄʏ ɪꜱ ʀᴇɢʀᴇᴛꜰᴜʟ. Pining after a love from ten years ago does that to a guy. He's become a shell of the hero he once used to be. His fatal flaw has become his downfall. He's turning down job opportunities to care for his mother, spending his nights watching Wheel of Fortune, and eating leftover lasagna. Maybe a New Rome-style vacation is just what he needs to find himself again. ᴡɪʟʟ ɪꜱ ᴛʜʀɪᴠɪɴɢ. His internship at the hospital is amazing, his roommate is awesome, and he's not regretting his decision to move to LA. However, a trip to New Rome goes wrong when ghosts from his past threaten his new lifestyle. He'll have no part of it. Is this his optimistic nature, or his inability to commit? Ten years have passed since the war against Gaea and the giants, so everyone's married with kids, right? Wrong. This isn't one of those sunshine and smiles and Perca-babies all the time stories.
