A third plot might involve Dionysus and Ariadne's relationship being explored through a time - travel aspect. A demigod accidentally stumbles upon a magical artifact that sends them back in time to when Dionysus and Ariadne were together. The demigod then has to interact with them, and in the process, changes some small events in their relationship. When they return to the present, they find that Dionysus has changed in some ways because of these alterations in the past, and the demigod has to figure out how to fix it.
One idea could be that Dionysus, while in his role at Camp Half - Blood, has a series of dreams about Ariadne. These dreams start to influence his actions and decisions in the camp, making him more introspective. Maybe he starts to introduce new activities related to wine - making (in a safe and age - appropriate way for the demigods) as a way to connect to his past with Ariadne. He could also start to tell stories about her to the campers, which might inspire some of them in unexpected ways.
One idea could be Percy having to go on a quest with the children of Dionysus. They could face a new type of monster that is immune to normal weapons but can be defeated by the power of wine, which the children of Dionysus can control. Another could be Percy getting into a friendly rivalry with a son of Dionysus over who can throw the best party at Camp Half - Blood. Maybe they compete to see who can get more demigods to attend their party, and in the process, they learn more about each other's powers.
Well, it could start with Dionysus reminiscing about Ariadne. He could share his memories with some of the more perceptive demigods at Camp Half - Blood. This would gradually build up the mystery around her. Then, as the story progresses, Ariadne could be introduced in a vision or a dream that a demigod has. Dionysus' reaction to this would be crucial in developing their relationship further in the fanfiction.
A really interesting plot could be a time - travel fanfic where Percy and Dionysus end up in ancient Greece together. They have to deal with the different rules and social structures of that time while also trying to find a way back. This would allow for a lot of exploration of the origin of Dionysus' powers and how Percy's modern - day thinking clashes with the ancient ways.
One idea could be Percy having to learn about the unique powers and quirks of being associated with Dionysus. For example, he might have to deal with the power of manipulating plants in a new way, or understand the god's connection to madness in a more personal sense. Maybe he has to use his newfound 'family' connection to Dionysus to solve a mystery in the demigod world that involves some sort of curse related to wine or celebration.
The plot could involve the OC struggling with the reputation that comes with being the son of Dionysus. In the Percy Jackson world, Dionysus is often seen as a bit of a party - god and not always taken seriously. So the OC might have to constantly prove himself to his fellow demigods. He could start out being underestimated but then prove his worth in a quest, like finding a lost magical item that only someone with his connection to Dionysus' powers could locate.
Fanfictions about Dionysus and Ariadne can also introduce new characters or expand on existing minor characters. Maybe there's a sidekick for Dionysus who helps him court Ariadne in a more elaborate way. Or perhaps there's a character from Ariadne's past on the island that has a role to play in their relationship. It's all about creativity and adding new layers to their already fascinating story.
The allure of Dionysus and Ariadne fanfiction lies in the mystery and passion of their relationship. Their story is one of love, rescue, and new beginnings. Fanfiction writers can take these elements and run with them, creating unique and engaging stories. For instance, they can explore the cultural and mythological context more deeply, like the role of Dionysus in Greek mythology as a god of wine and revelry and how that affects his relationship with Ariadne.
One plot idea could be Percy having to team up with Hera to rescue a group of demigods who have been captured by an ancient monster. Hera, despite her usual aloofness, realizes she needs Percy's unique skills.
Another theme could be the mythological aspects. Fanfics might delve into how their relationship fits within the broader context of Greek mythology. For example, how their union affects other gods and mortals in the mythological world.
One common theme is the exploration of the relationship between the god and the demigod. It often shows how Percy, a powerful demigod, interacts with Dionysus, a complex and often moody god. Another theme is the clash of their personalities. Dionysus is all about pleasure and revelry while Percy is more about heroism and saving the day.
