#Jason grace deserves the love

[victorian-platence]

Every day is Jason Grace rememberance day, ahre

No but really, it's well within our power to create our own little canon where we have Jason Grace, alive and happy and deeply understood, we can ask ourselves, who is this kid? Who does he think he is? How does he want to be perceived? Who does he want to be? Why? Who is this kid raised by wolves and legionnaires, like a sheep for slaughter? What things does he love? Is he a history nerd? Does he like art? Does he prefer science? Remember when he thought he couldn't allow himself weakness if he wanted to survive? Where does this ever soldier put down his sword? We can give him peace and love, we can give him a houseful of grandchildren, like the one he imagined in BoO, it's within the fandoms power and we could pull it

I guess this is just me wanting jasiper fanfiction, huh?

*screams are heard in the distance*

JAAAAAAAAAAAASOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it’s always “haha, jason ate a stapler, that’s how he got the scar on his lip,” but we never stop to think about the implications of why he tried to eat that stapler. beryl was a neglectful, abusive mother who spent most of her time drunk, high, or pulling stunts for media attention. she didn’t bother to look after her children. she didn’t bother to feed them, play with them, or help them. thalia was forced to take care of jason, an 8 year old girl struggling to keep herself and her 1 year old baby brother alive. jason ate that stapler because he was starving. jason ate that stapler because he was neglected and had no one looking out for him other than another child.

Jason Grace was needed by the fandom because among all the troublemakers, sarcastic frats, dyslexic students and hyperactive kids who related with Percy, Leo and other demigods, there were some of us who loved discipline, studying and who constantly worked under the growing weight of people's expectations just because they were good at something.

There were some of us who excelled at academics, some who liked being organized instead of messy, and some who liked discipline over casual behaviour. And just when we thought that maybe we couldn't relate to any demigod – Jason emerged as our ray of sunshine.

Jason taught us it's as okay and cool to be disciplined and perfect as it is to be messy and lacky. Let's give our boy all the love he deserves because he made a huge difference in so many people's lives.

JASON GRACE YOU'RE LOVED

this is my first time drawing Piper is it obvious

jason's whole 'fighting a titian with his bare hands' is hardly mentioned in heroes of olympus and i firmly believe its because rick didn't want jason to see powerful and we see that with hazel & nico to their accomplishments are pushed to the side to make percy seem better percy is extremely powerful and has great feats and accomplished many things even gods haven't but hazel literally took down gaea and jason fought a titain with his bare hands when he was 14/15 its like the seven (frank, jason, and hazel especially) never get to see there fully potential because no one can be better than percy

i have ALWAYS promptly looked forward to jason grace's povs in the hoo books to the point where'd I'd flip the pages till I find the words "JASON" and would count the amount of povs he has in the whole book before I even finished reading, so I feel excited knowing that I'll get to his povs soon. there, I said it.

Catching Up

Thalia: So what happened after Juno took you? Where did you go? Were you safe, happy?

Jason, uncomfortably brushing her off: Well, it’s a long story and kind of a bummer haha. You don’t wanna hear that right now.

Thalia, softly: Jason, I’ve waited thirteen years to hear your sad stories.

Ya’ll are sleeping on my boy Franks potential for angst.

- body dysmorphia (blessing of Ares, not being traditionally what people expected of a Roman, etc)

- lack of identity and self doubt (so much, so, so very much)

- parental trauma

- grandparent trauma

- emotional insecurity

- being asked to go on a life-altering highly dangerous quest he was almost prophesied to die on while being fully convinced he was gonna die less than a month or 2 after his mom died, only for his grandma to die(?) as well due to the quest

- alienated by all his peers and friends for being the only one who’s truly Roman

- etc

Like when you think about it he’s quite similar to Percy, but he gets overshadowed by everyone because uncle Rick didn’t flesh him out properly (imo)

I’m genuinely angry about that. Like everyone else gets good development and character growth (aside from Jason but he died and got development then) aside from Frank, really. He had so much potential with it too—

Leo Valdez wants to be loved

Jason Grace wants to find a place to belong

Piper Mclean wants to know she she is, craves an identity all her own

And they all found each other, pushed together by fate and outside strings, but they made it work and found what they needed most in each other.

A home. A family.

Jason call himself "son of lupa" when he's in a battle and feel confident. The memory that he is part of Lupa's pack is more important and impactful for him than being a son of Jupiter.

In those moments, there's a twinkle in his eyes. A victorious smile, the aura of a wolf ready to devour anyone's throat with he's teeth.

But it's also his sweeter side. Protective, faithful, affectionate. He is Lupa's son when he fights, When he protects Leo and Piper with claws and teeth, when he trains with Reyna, when he takes care of Nico, when he pulls Percy and Frank into a sleeping pile, When he leans against Annabeth as they talk about battlefield strategy, when he snuggles and protects Hazel during nightmares. It's his wolf side, his essence

He introduces himself as "the son of Jupiter" at camp. It's empty and stressful, just like he sees being the king's son

is this a safe space to say that the lost hero was my favorite book in the hero's of Olympus series? 🙁

[huntingrays]

i physically cannot write valgrace without making jason a huge simp for leo

[voiddaisy]

“stop calling jason todd a silly guy” has it ever occurred to you that he is a silly guy? he is FOR SURE a murderer and can be so, so cruel, but he still has his moments. he can still be killing people while quoting books he read in high school. he can still be torturing people while humming mitski songs. he can still haunt gotham while making fun of his siblings. let the guy be silly!

[xixovart]

just remembered jason grace was given his name to appease juno. going to be SICK.

[captainwinterrsoldierr]

literally breaks my fckn heart to know Jason had plans. And good plans at that. Jumping between camps to keep them unified and friends. Literally constructing his own shrines and temples for minor gods to honor his promise to that minor goddess. All while still attending school so he can have a bright future. And we know he wanted to get married and have grandchildren and grow old one day. And you’re TELLING ME THAT ALL GOT TAKEN AWAY!? JUST LIKE THAT???!3?3?3

IM SAD AGAIN GOODBYE

I'm not obsessed with Jason Grace. I'm merely giving him the love he didn't get all these years. 💅
