Adventure is also a major theme. Just like in the original Percy Jackson series, he goes on quests. But these quests are often related to his connection to Vesta. For instance, he might have to find a lost artifact of Vesta or protect a place important to Vesta. Friendship remains important too. His relationships with his friends are tested and developed as he embarks on these new adventures.
One common theme is identity. Since Percy is now the son of Vesta in these fanfictions, he often has to figure out who he really is in this new context. Another theme is power. How does being the son of Vesta change his powers and how he uses them? For example, in some fanfictions, he might have new abilities related to fire or hearth.
A recurring theme is the clash between the old and the new. Percy has to balance his old life as a son of Poseidon (in the original series) with his new identity as the son of Vesta. This can lead to some really interesting internal conflicts. Also, the theme of discovery is prominent. He discovers new things about the world of the gods and his place in it through his new relationship with Vesta.
