    Summary

    Damasen sighed and finally turned fully to Percy. “It takes most monsters decades or even centuries to reform after death,” the titan told him gently. “Often, it takes just as long, if not longer, to find a tear.”
    It took all of Percy’s very limited strength to force his jaw to work through the shaking. “A tear, huh?”
    “Little mortal—”
    “The Minotaur went from dust to a pain in my ass again in less than four years.”
    Damasen seemed to almost wilt. With impossible softness, he asked, “Do you think you can survive out there for four years? The drakon will offer you a quick and mostly painless death. Many who rove out there, many of whom have a vendetta against you personally, will not be so kind.”
    ---
    Percy survives five years in Tartarus alone. Snapshots from each year and what he sacrificed and endured in order to make it back to Annabeth.
    Prequel to Fine (And Other Lies I've Told In Your Absence). Reading both not required.

    Summary

    “I’m sorry,” he told her.
    And that only threw her back into heavy, heavy sobs, it taking several minutes of hearing Percy mutter apologies before she could get out, “Don’t apologize to me.
    He just kept wiping away tears from her cheeks even as more fell. “I didn’t want to leave you,” he said, his voice properly shaky for the first time. “I said I would never leave you. I didn’t leave you,” he repeated like a mantra.
    Like a lifeline.
    “I left you,” Annabeth cried.
    Percy shook his head. “No. Never.”
    ---
    Percy gets Annabeth out of Tartarus, at the cost of himself. Five years later and he manages to claw his way out, showing up at Camp Jupiter where Annabeth now attends University. After so much time, neither he nor Annabeth are the same. A look at how Annabeth handled the grief (and guilt), how Percy's extended time in Tartarus affected him, and how they work to still build a future together despite everything.
