disabled headcanons time 💕

i’ve read the pjo series prolly over 10 times and hoo MAYBE twice lol so this is only gonna be pjo characters bc i’m more familiar w them :) (i’m attempting a hoo reread rn so who knows maybe i’ll get to them eventually)

- number 1 all demigods have chronic pain that’s just it like u can’t be in this world constantly fighting and constant injuries without consequences

-percy and annabeth are both hard of hearing!! percy was IN the mt saint helens explosion so he’s deaf in one ear, annabeth was prolly very close to that!! half a million people had to be evacuated near the volcano so assuming annabeth wasn’t that far away in the labrynth her hearing has suffered from it for sure, not as much as percy tho

-annabeth has hip dysplasia bc *i* i have hip dysplasia and i love her and i say so. it takes a while for her to realize she has it bc she’s been so active from such a young age so it wasn’t till after the second war does she start limping and she’s like ???? i’m not even injured rn???? she gets it checked out and gets diagnosed and she’s a little angy bc after all this time she gets this which isn’t even related to her demigodness fjskfbdn sometimes she uses a cane when it gets bad but it’s very on/off (which is so freaking annoying brksbfns)

-bc of rachel being the oracle and it using her voice she’s selectively mute (i kno canon doesn’t support this but whatever canon doesn’t support any disablilities so) her percy and annabeth bond over signing all the time so that’s nice!

-nico def has chronic pain a fatigue he overworks himself constantlyyyyy percy asks him to just lay down in some dirt (water helps percy so dirt should help nico right? right??? those are percys thoughts) also king of shadows king of ghosts hello? the sun super affects him constantly wearing sunglasses and covering up which just helps w his Image lol

-oh annabeth and percy def wear wrist braces bc of holding up the sky (p sure i stole this from @disablednicodiangelo lol)

-omg i keep going back to it but percy and annabeth also have burn scars bc mt saint helens obv percys got more but annabeth still has minor ones just from trying to get away

-hephaestus cabin def builds a lot of disability aids like prosthetics, hearing aids, canes, wheelchairs, etc

-clarisse has early onset arthritis which super affects her knees and wrists which pisses her off just like annabeth w her hip dysplasia, uses a cane a will threaten anyone w it

-oh oh Also percy def has chronic pain after hoo but not from regular demigod activities but specifically from losing the achilles curse bc u can’t go from almost 100% invulnerable to not without ur body feeling bad about it. sometimes when i gets bad he’ll just float in the closest body of water which helps w pain but doesn’t heal

that’s all i got so far bc i mainly wanted to talk about percy and annabeth after the volcano bc that was serious stuff!!! doesn’t matter that percy healed on a magical island he should still have scarring and physical affects!

ATTENTION!!

hello, I am a 16 yr old white girl from southeastern Wisconsin. very vanilla, I’m aware. in response to my “WANTED: cute boy” post, here are a list of my physical and mental traits, so that you can determine if you would like to talk to me.

PHYSICAL: ☆ 5'6" ☆ brown curly hair, about shoulder length. THICC HAIR. ☆ brown eyes that are lighter in the center (there’s a freckle on the left one) ☆ relatively skinny, not very strong. a bit of a tummy, but I suck in so you’d never notice. ☆ chewed nails. I’ve mostly stopped tho. ☆ braces! w/ rubber bands! somewhere between February 2017 and June 2017 the braces come off and I once again enjoy having a bright and happy smile! ☆ 4 very light birthmarks! the one on my knee looks like an archipelago. ☆ a bit of acne, but only on the forehead. ☆ STRONG BROWS ☆ bigger bottom lip, thinner top lip ☆ pouty, but only bc of braces ☆ large knuckles bc I used to play basketball. if I try, I can make it impossible to let go of my hand, bc my knuckles touch and form a barrier. ☆ tiny wrists. both pop when I turn them one way or the other. ☆ bumps on my arms. it’s genetic. they’re non contagious and not like acne, so popping them doesn’t work. ☆ left tit is a tiny bit bigger than right tit. ☆ relatively high cheekbones ☆ “innie” belly button ☆ weirdly lumpy hips. I’m pretty bony. ☆ legs as long as the sky is blue. ☆ relatively cute butt. not bony. ☆ stretch marks at the top of my thighs, just under my booty. not sure where they came from. ☆ usually bruised knees, especially in summer ☆ scar tissue on left ankle from when my dad dropped a ladder on my foot. it scraped the bone in my leg as it went down, so the scar tissue reminds. ☆ my doctor when I was a baby said I have popsicle toes! the 2nd-4th are double jointed ☆ hyper flexible overall. not as bendy as I used to be, but still pretty bendy. ☆ my dad’s parents were both German, but both were very dark looking for German. therefore, my dad can pass as Italian. it just means I turn dark orange when I tan, and tan very quickly. ☆ some eczema on my chest, but it is cleaning up. ☆ very out of shape. I can not run for more than 20 seconds without wondering if I can stop yet ☆ squishy?? I lack muscles so I’m very comfortable to snuggle, especially bc I’m flexible enough to fit anywhere but squishy enough to function as a pillow, especially my tummy and tits.

MENTAL/EMOTIONAL: ☆ A.D.D. easily distracted. ☆ easily confused, but quick to understand once everything is explained to me. ☆ guilty of savior behavior like you wouldn’t believe ☆ possibly anxious? parents don’t have time to get me diagnosed tho ☆ desperate to please people. I have limits, but I LOVE making people happy. ☆ I’m rlly fuckin funny ok most of my jokes are specific to my close friends or my childhood but once I’m around you for more than 3 months I’m rlly rlly funny bc we have memories together and I know you well ☆ very paranoid. overactive imagination led to some rlly freaky nightmares as a child, some of which are recurring. ☆ afraid of being forgotten, not good enough, my closet, the dark, inanimate objects coming to life and coming after me (especially doors and anything with legs, like tables and standing mirrors), and being killed in the shower. ☆ easily scared. can’t stand suspense or horror movies. ☆ semi obsessive?? like my friends and my hypothetical potential s/o are so cool and I love them and talk about them often. ☆ redundant. my life is boring. ☆ very very talkative. it’s a little annoying. ☆ easily bored, especially when I want to travel or get sick of how things are going. ☆ kinda rude? but not intentionally? I try to be kind to everyone but sometimes I come off as salty ��� very passionate ☆ very defensive, especially of friends and s/o, and usually family ☆ loud :-/ ☆ easily excited ☆ interested in what you have to say, but will probably cut you off mid sentence bc my social intuition is lacking ☆ chronic liar >:-( definitely my least favorite trait, but one I haven’t been able to shake. they range from little white lies to just pretending things didn’t happen or that they’re fine. ☆ the last 3 years of my life have absolutely fried my brain. I’m very tired and very wounded. ☆ attaches quickly ☆ separation anxiety, but moreso just afraid of losing people I care about ☆ very self-centered :-/ ☆ relatively bullheaded. I don’t often think things through. ☆ if I have to face the music, odds are I’ll stick earplugs in and run away ☆ usually very positive! the world is a cool place with some very cool people in it!
