Looking for a 2015-era Percabeth AU
Hello everyone! I'm trying to track down a Percabeth fic I read around 2015-2016, I used to have shit internet and spent an unreasonable time reading fanfics on FanFiction.net. It was an incomplete AU at the time, or I would remember it having an ending. Here's key details I remember:
- A Breakup: Percy and Annabeth had a daughter, but Annabeth wanted to put her up for adoption. Percy didn't want to, and this caused them to break up. I think Percy isn't informed who the daughter went to, he simply tries to move on.
- Time Jump: Years pass. Percy and Annabeth are called to reclaim the daughter. I think it's because the adoptive parents died(?). This is where the story "starts, and I think they start living together.
- Percy's Ex-Wife: During the time apart, Percy gets married to an OC and then divorced. I specifically remember the OC's description sounded a lot like Calypso, but she had a unique name. I recall it being a shit deal for him, he loses a lot.
- Plot Twist: it turns out the adoptive father was cheating with percy's OC ex wife, and this is how the car accident happens.
- Main Dynamic: Very heavy "will they/won't they"—they are co-parenting but avoiding committing to a relationship again.
- More Twists: Annabeth dates this one guy during the ordeal, it makes Percy jealous, but the guy turns out to be two timing.
- Author's Quirk: The author wrote Annabeth wearing big/high heels a lot- enough that I remember it.
Does anyone remember this or know the author? Thank you! Or just feel free to talk about something like this... I don't know why I was reminded about the unreasonable amount of time I've spent on Percabeth fanfics-
