Chayanne including Foolish in the drama but not Philza while he’s standing right there is so funny. Also Foolish being like “Been there done that” made me howl,,,,,

my favorite thing about the fact that leo decided to use wii remotes to help control the argo ii is that legit
those things are janky as hell
like imagine this idiot trying to unfurl the sails but failing bc the remotes and sensors are wack and he for some reason thought including them in the ship's design was genius
if he has regrets, he sure ain't gonna admit them

' algo así... ' responde a medias porque esta vez no tenía ninguna excusa para estar allí. o quizá sí la tenía, pero no se escuchaba razonable. ' al menos aquí sé que habrá algo de paz. ' estúpido, estúpido, estúpido. todo lo que quería era hacer algo por el otro, no dejarlo solo, lo que sea (aunque su presencia no fuese de gran ayuda). ' ¿es la primera noche que vienes hasta acá? ' dobla su cuerpo hasta sentarse al lado del tremere, a sabiendas que se ensuciará la ropa de tierra pero decidiendo no prestarle demasiada atención.
Tumblr media
no responde a aquello, no podía ni sentirse aliviado de no ser interrumpido, humor estaba por el piso. solo asiente de forma débil, por supuesto conoce la voz de quién lo acompaña. agridulce, piensa mientras alza su mirada hasta el rostro que dejó ir. ' no fue tu culpa, no tienes que decir lo siento ' musita suave, bajando su mirada hasta pequeña conmemoración hecha irónicamente en parque bajo dominio de la camarilla. ' puedes ' no se mueve de su posición, duda que quiera sentarse cercano a él en el piso. ' ¿aburrido de que te vigilen en todas partes? ' * @romaahn

First, my congrats on the new round figure so to speak!
Second, are you in pjo?! How did I miss this moment!! Now you have to tell me about this fandom with this fandom ask thing bro!
From this Ask Game
Thank you very much hehe and yesssh, I do! I read the books when I was around 12 and haven't been able to get out of this fandom even since x33. Def need to re-read them because... holy gosh it’s just so good
The first character I first fell in love with: 
GROVER! Mah dear!! He is so funny and cool and I loved how he and Percy were already friends in the beginning of the book and that friendship ony grew with their adventures.
The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: 
LEO VALDEZ. I had a *light* feeling that I would get attatched when Jason described him as someone with the levels of energy high af but ??? Sacarstic?? Funny?? Charismatic and ?? Full of trauma? Excuse me sir you're my new favorite character thank you thank you
The character everyone else loves that I don’t: 
Can't think of any tbh. Most of the characters that everyone love I love too
The character I love that everyone else hates: 
JASON JASON JASON WHY EVERYONE DISLIKE HIM HE IS JUST A LIL,,,, A LIL STRONK AND DORKY GUY,,
I think that beans stopped disliking him so much after Trialls of Apollo but I remember not meeting a single person that liked him before that series sdfghjhgtfvxcv which is fair. You like who you like
The character I used to love but don’t any longer:
Hmmmm, I think Thalia? For no big reason. It's been a time since I read the books and she just slips from my mind sometimes. She f*cking rocks tho <3 queen <33
The character I would totally smooch: 
I am giving Leo Valdez a big kiss on his cheek and Reyna and Hazel and the Stoll brothers and the,,,, whole seven a,,and Nico,,,,,
The character I’d want to be like: 
I want to be kind and great as Hazel, perseve like Annabeth, strong like Nico and just.... Percy. Them <3
The character I’d slap: 
OCTAVIAN OCTAVIAN AND CALIGULA TOO BARK BARK GROWL BITE BITE I WILL BE SLAPPING THEM WITH A METAL GLOVE.
IF I SEE THEM BOTH WALKING DOWN THE STREET IT WILL BE ON S I G H T
A pairing that I love:
I love a lot of pairings (especially the canon ones because they’re so cute) but this one here I will be answering with Valdangelo (Leo Valdez x Nico di Angelo) because I am always weak for the ray of sunshine and the grumpy serious guy getting along wsdertyujcvbnjm can't lie tho Solangelo is still very good too
A pairing that I despise: 
Quiron x Percy just,,, nah,

Anon from before who asked about the request! So happy to hear you’re interested I’m so excited!! I can’t remember if there is a word limit to asks so I may have to send this in two parts. I’ll refer to future Leo as F!Leo and regular Leo as just Leo 
So the request is inspired by that one shot you did were Future Leo (rip-) ends up in the past and sees his younger s/o, yelling at his younger self to cherish them before they’re gone 
That request? *chefs kiss* mwah, le magnifique~
So a what if idea for a bittersweet contention! 
So F!Leo is stuck at the lair while the bros are out patrolling, it’s been a while since F!Leo ran into his s/o’s younger self, and he’s adamant on not letting it happen again. It’s easier for everyone that way…but then his s/o shows up at the lair, looking for younger him. He’s panicked, naturally, but eventually his younger s/o stumbles into him (it’s not like F!Leo had anywhere else to hide aside from the lair anyway). F!Leo speaks in short sentences to his younger s/o as they try to make small talk while making some tea, saying they can just wait for the boys to get back (to F!Leo’s slight, very mild annoyance) 
F!Leo is trying to be polite, but the lasting sting is still there
The sting that tells him yes, this is his darling, but it’s not HIS darling. His darling died to the Kraang, he let them down. This alternate version of her wasn’t his. His s/o was gone, nothing was going to bring her back. 
While Leo is showing off at nothing, his younger s/o ends up burning themselves with the hot water, having been distracted. Instantly, F!Leo is up out of his chair and making a beeline to them. He’s carefully inspecting their hand, assuring that it’s not a serious burn, and careful getting them a wet flannel
There’s a beat of awkward silence as F!Leo focuses intently on his younger s/o’s hand to avoid looking at their face, meanwhile, his s/o shifts uncomfortably….but F!Leo has his attention on them when they nervously speak up “Do you…not like me, or something?” 
Before F!Leo can even say anything, in a desperate, nervous tone, his s/o could reply with soemthing along the lines of 
“I mean- it’s just, ever since we met it..it just feels like you’ve been avoiding me? Whenever I come round you’re always so quite, a-and whenever I talk to you it’s like,  I dunno, you always try to use as few words as possible? Yet when you talk with the others, you seem fine” 
His s/o would then go on to ask if they did something to upset him, or if in in his timeline she did something bad. All the while F!Leo is just sat there, stunned, because he made his younger s/o feel like they where doing something *wrong?*
Maybe for a fluffy/happy ending it could be wrapped up with F!Leo admitting that - in his timeline - he messed up the lives of so many people (due to the Kraang war). I doubt he’d admit his s/o died in his timeline, but he still has a sad, broken expression on his face as he recalls the day he lost them, HIS s/o. 
But then, before he can start crying, his younger s/o places her hand on his arm and says something reassuring? Maybe how no matter how messy things might have been, if she got to spend a messy future with Leo, they’d be happy 
Anywho sorry this is SUPER long plz take your time and no worries if you don’t wanna do this one since I know the FUture Leo post was a while ago! 
一∑Timeline。・゜・
Tumblr media
author’s notes: anon lemme just say, you are most definitely a writer, likeeee i hope you have a writer blog 🙌 phenomenal!! this may be a tad more sad than u wanted 😅
warnings: angst, fluff, unedited, flashbacks, mentions of death?
The work we are discussing ↑
→ Blast From the Past ←
—————————————————————————
This was uncharted territory. Which of course shouldn’t be a big deal to Leo. Not after dealing with Yokai or the Hidden City. Weird shit happens down there all the time. Mysticism is something that no one really understands. (Which drove Donnie crazy) And let’s not forget about the organized crime, like the Foot Clan. Or literal aliens escaping from a prison dimension.
No Man’s Land should be right up Leo’s alley with a track record like that. He should be used to the weird, to the abnormal.
But even with the world’s fate suddenly thrust into his hands, Leo may pick that over getting thrown back into the past. Or a different timeline. Whatever. See! It’s already getting confusing.
Alas fate doesn’t give two shits as to what Leo would rather choose. So here he is, six months later after being dropped 40 years back in time. Back before he royally screwed everything up for everyone. It was heavy at first. The burden of not repeating the same mistake twice. With that out of the way, Kraang imprisoned once again, Leo felt like his purpose was complete.
That was why he got sent back wasn’t it? To right his wrongs. Shouldn’t he have gone up in a cloud of dust? Or a portal should’ve opened up for him to waltz into?! Needless to say none of that happened. So he’s still here, with a bunch of teenagers and his dad and April. All alive and healthy and happy.
Talk about a culture shock. Leo could eat good food again. Go to sleep with both eyes closed. Or well, try to. Old habits die hard. He tries to keep to himself for the most part. There is this weird sense of déjà vu that happens when he runs into anyone from this timeline. Over time the feeling has faded, especially to those who he can’t really avoid. All the brothers check in on him regularly. Leon, (his younger self) begrudgingly does so.
Ever since they had that little spat Leon maintains a certain distance which is perfectly fine with Leo. Boundaries are good. Leo feels safe for the most part in the lair.
That is until you come in. Leo would’ve heard you coming if he hadn’t had headphones on. A luxury that he lost in his own timeline. He missed music. Reading comics. So he thoroughly enjoys all of those things now.
His hearing is a bit impaired due to y’know a war lifestyle. Gunshots and laser canons and all the other weapons Donnie could piece together took their toll overtime. So when he listens to music he has to turn it up pretty high. (Which he would’ve done anyhow).
Leo sits motionless in Dad’s recliner, eyes wide as he watches you shake your umbrella. It’s obviously raining topside. Little water droplets hit the cement floor. Like your umbrella, you aren’t exactly dry either.
You haven’t noticed him yet. Leo hasn’t seen you since the very first time. Back on the rooftops when he used to patrol with the boys. You haven’t changed a bit, and that nostalgic feeling takes over. He sees you and your future self. The way you move, the way you groan in dismay at the tears in your umbrella. How you run your fingers through your damp hair. It’s all so achingly familiar.
Maybe he can make a quick portal getaway. Maybe you’ll never have to know he was here. Maybe if he doesn’t move, doesn’t breathe, you won’t see him.
But as you sigh and place the umbrella propped up to dry, you finally check your surroundings. Your own eyes widening before a smile graces your face. It’s more than he deserves. He wishes he could smile back. But his mouth doesn’t move, in fact it feels like he ate sand. It’s dry and uncomfortable. He’s uncomfortable.
He watches on as you begin to speak. The older version of yourself still right beside you, doing the same thing. Mimicking. Leo swallows as he schools his features and tugs the headphones down to hang around his neck.
“W-what was that?” He asks, clearing his throat after the words come out a bit stilted.
“I hadn’t realized anyone was home! It sure is pouring down and I happened to be nearby when the wind suddenly ramped up and—“ You point over to your damaged umbrella.
“The darn thing couldn’t handle the weather! So I decided to come take refuge here until it dies down.” You pause for a moment. Then continue.
“I called Donnie after getting past the manhole cover. Something about a day in the Hidden City..?”
Leo nods.
You shift your weight. Still standing by the entrance. A bead of rainwater slowly making its way from your hairline, down your cheek, to your jaw. “So I guess they won’t be back til later!” You add on.
“Yeah,” is all Leo can think to say.
He doesn’t want to talk to you. Well he does. But he knows he shouldn’t. He really really shouldn’t. It’s a bad idea for multiple reasons. Even if you already know he’s from the future and all that drama. The less you know the better.
And yet, he can’t help but notice how you’re starting to shiver. His tongue clicks inside his mouth. He’ll just get you a blanket. That’s it! After that he’ll go off to his own subway car.
Leo stands, grabbing a throw blanket off the back of the old couch and walks over to you. He offers the blanket, his eyes firmly planted on the ground. You’re wearing converse, socks that go up to what he would guess is your mid-shin.
Your hand grazes his as you take the blanket. “Thank you,” and that’s all it takes for his eyes to be magnetically drawn upwards. He doesn’t deserve those words. “It’s nothing. You should go sit… or whatever! I’ll get out of here-“ Leo is moving as he talks. Already tearing his gaze away, turning his shell towards you. Making for the exit. To go to his room and hide.
“Don’t go!” You call out to stop him. And he does. Immediately he stills. His shoulders tense as he closes his eyes. Déjà vu. You’ve said that before. In the future...in his timeline. So many times.
“Leo don’t go, we can last a little while longer on the supplies we have.”
“The longer we wait the more dire of a situation it’ll be later on, don’t worry I’ll be back, I’ll be safe,”
“Please don’t go! This mission is impossible!”
“It’s not impossible Donnie ran the numbers and our chances aren’t zero, not trying at all makes it impossible hermosa, don’t worry I’ll be back, I’ll be safe,”
“Y/N?! Nononono. C’mon not like this. You can’t leave me. You’re the one always saying don’t go. So you can’t go either! Don’t go, don’t go, don’t go, please don’t go!
“Leo?” You say softly. He must’ve missed the sound of your footfalls. Because your voice is right behind him. Next to him once more. “Okay,” he sighs after a moment. He turns to see you bundled up in the blanket and squashes down the complicated feelings that try to bubble to the surface.
“Let’s go to the kitchen, Splinter has tea right? Or should I try for the hot chocolate stash?” Leo wonders if these questions are purposefully asked to get him to answer. Thankfully you just keep on talking. You grab onto one of his fingers, and gently pull for him to follow.
So he does, into the kitchen you both go. You tug him towards a stool, where he sits as you get busy. Chatting away about different kinds of tea. How it isn’t your preferred drink but it’s sure to warm you up. Asking what his own favorite is to which he shrugs. Leo’s decided nonverbal is the hill he wants to die on.
You keep on talking. Wondering aloud how the trip to the Hidden City is for everyone. Leo has a feeling that if everyone split up like last time, it’s probably just as hectic as before. Nothing ever goes as planned down in that city.
“The future must’ve been rough…”
Leo blinks, as looks over at you. You’re leaning your back against the countertop. Next to the stove where a kettle has been placed on the nearest burner. Your arms are crossed and you meet his gaze, you don’t say anything else.
“Yeah? What gave it away?” Leo can only let out a dry chuckle. Attempting at humor and failing miserably. His eyes can’t handle staring at you for too long. So his gaze wanders away, finding the silhouette of your future self once more. He looks away from future you as well. He can’t handle that either.
“I don’t know. Maybe your eyes? Like you’ve seen stuff… bad stuff and it haunts you.” And Leo can’t help but think how perceptive you are. He always felt seen when it came to you. He couldn’t hide for long with you in the room. His good hand squeezes into a fist.
“Yeah..?” His voice is weak in his own ears. Cracking. Fragile. And he smells you. The scent of rainwater and lingering tones from your perfume. They get closer. And he closes his eyes. Because they are filling with tears. He breathes in, and out. Then opens to see you standing before him. Even with his sitting down in the stool he’s just a tad bit taller. But he feels so small under your gaze.
“It’s okay,” you whisper. As if you could possibly know. If the boys told you all they knew, that Leo had failed the world, that Kraang had invaded not just New York. That the resistance he led had slowly but surely been picked apart until it was only him left standing. You don’t know what you’re talking about. He knows this, and yet he finds so much comfort in those words.
Maybe because they are coming from you. He doesn’t say anything as his eyes fill with tears once more. And he can’t help but be annoyed at that fact. That all he wants to do is cry around you. He looks up at the overhead light hoping to burn his retinas into submission. That he won’t cry.
Then he feels you touch his good arm. And he doesn’t flinch. But he stills. Not moving at all. As you slowly get closer, coming to stand in between his legs. And your arms go up around his neck. And you hug him.
Leo is frozen. The light above going a bit fuzzy. A second passes. Two. Three. And Leo thaws as you continue to hold him. His own hands going around your sides, pulling you in impossible closer. His chest starting to heave, tears starting to fall, so he squeezes his eyes shuts and buries his snout into the warmth of your neck.
It’s not exactly the same. Your scent is just slightly different from the you in the future. But he can almost imagine it is you from his timeline. That you’re okay. Telling him that all the things he did, tried to do—
“It’s okay Leo,” your hand is soft as it goes up and down the top part of his shell. Maybe you do know. Maybe his eyes did give it all away. And despite his eyes being shut so tightly, tears still manage to leak out.
“Thanks” he croaks into your skin. Allowing himself this one reprieve. Or maybe he just can’t help himself now that you’re here in his arms. He nuzzles his snout into your skin. Just once. His hands tighten around your sides, just once. Before he goes slack and the sound of the kettle is piercing as it squeals. His hands fall away from you, and he leans back in his stool letting you go.
You have tears in your eyes too. Now that he can see your face again. So he gives you a grin, shaking his head. “Like you said, it’s okay.” And he stands, offering you the stool, passing you by to go to the kettle. To finish making your tea.
Leo tells you all his guesses as to what is happening to everyone in the Hidden City. Laughs are shared, and the conversation flows pretty smoothly from then on. April, Dad, and the boys get back not too much later and they regal all of their adventures to you. Every time Leo's guesses are confirmed you can't help but look over at him. A big smile on your face. Tears no more.
That's how you should be, Leo thinks. You should get to be happy in this life. In this timeline. And for the first time ever since he was able to defeat the Kraang. Leo feels hopeful that you will be.

Sleepless in Cabin 3
Percy Jackson x reader
Warnings: Blood of Olympus spoilers, mentions of insomnia, flashbacks, a makeout session, I think that’s it.
Authors note: This is my first time writing so let me know how I did :)
Summary: reader is having flashbacks to the battle against Gaia and hasn’t been sleeping. Goes to best friend Percy’s cabin for comfort.
Tossing and turning. That’s all I could do for the past 3 hours. Lights out was at 10 pm. It was now 1 o clock in the morning and I have not slept a wink. Every time I closed my eyes I saw the same things. Leo bursting into flames. Octavian being launched into the massive ball of fire in the air.
Now I didn’t care all that much for Octavian, but Leo was my best friend. I knew about his plan all along. He told me he was going to find Calypso, and he would be back. It was just so hard to believe after what I saw last week. I haven’t been able to sleep for days now.
After the battle I had collapsed in exhaustion, and I think that was the last time I really got any rest since then.
Camp was still being cleaned up and there was evidence of the battle everywhere. Reyna, who had become like my sister, left to go back to Camp Jupiter with Hazel and Frank. My whole life felt like it had been turned upside down in the matter of 7 days.
I was restless. Chiron had me meet up with some of the Apollo campers daily for “mental health reasons”, but it wasn’t helping in the way that he had hoped. The only thing that helped was being around my best friends, Percy and Annabeth.
They had been my best friends since I was 13. I first went on a quest with them to recover the Golden Fleece from a huge cyclops. Times have changed since then. The war against Kronos almost felt like child’s play compared to everything we’ve dealt with since then.
Percy’s disappearance alone was enough to send me into a crazed state for weeks. That was the first time I dealt with insomnia. He and I always had a special connection. One that nobody else understood. Percy could calm me down in a way that nobody else ever was capable of. If Annabeth wasn’t by my side in that time I think I really would’ve lost it.
Even when he and Annabeth fell into Tartarus I didn’t break down like this. I had Reyna and Leo to get me through it.
As I rolled over in my empty cabin for the millionth time, I had a flashback to that day that they fell into the pit of Tartarus.
If Percy hadn’t jumped in after her, I would’ve. He pushed me back before he jumped in. I stood there with my brother, Nico, looking down hopelessly and trying to figure out what to do.
The boy, who my brother and I both had adored, was begging us to meet him at the other side of Tartarus. He promised us that he would be there, that he would get out. I could feel my heart being ripped out as I looked at them, but Nico and I swore to it.
I so badly wanted to jump in after them, but I couldn’t do it. I knew that I had to help the others.
After that, I was in a crazed state. Completely and hopelessly hyperfixated on getting them out.
The thought alone made me nauseous, and I considered running to throw up in the bathroom.
It’s not like I would be bothering anyone. Every night after I fall asleep, or in this case, pretend to fall asleep, Nico sneaks off to go see his boyfriend, Will.
I’m not angry at him for it. I purposely pretend to sleep so that he doesn’t feel bad about going. I know he’s struggling as much as I am.
I take a deep breath, hoping that I can settle my mind. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t work. I lay there for another fifteen minutes, staring at my ceiling, before I decide to take action.
I stood up, put on my slippers, and quietly escaped my cabin- trying my best not to wake any other campers- or the harpies.
I knew exactly where I was going, though I wasn’t sure what would happen.
I hadn’t gone to his cabin this late at night since my nightmares after we’d escaped the Labyrinth. He used to really help me get through my feelings- that is, until Rachel came along.
The next summer, I found out that Rachel and Percy had been kissing, and after that I backed off. I know that now there isn’t anything between them, but Percy is my best friend, and I knew that I needed to keep it that way.
I quietly approached his door, knocking softly. I hoped that he was awake, but I knew the odds were slim. After no answer, I knocked again, slightly more desperate.
If he doesn’t answer this time, I’ll go. I thought.
After a minute, there was still no response so I turned around to head back to my cabin and brave the night ahead.
The door creaked slowly behind me, and I whipped around. Percy was standing there, looking like I had just woken him up from the best dream of his life.
“Hey.” I whispered, approaching hesitantly.
Without another word, he nods his head, gesturing for me to come into his cabin. Tyson wasn’t there. He had temporarily gone back to Camp Jupiter with Ella.
We both enter his silent cabin, and he shuts the door quietly behind us. The seasalt smell immediately hits me and all of my senses relax.
He sits on his bed and looks up at me, standing awkwardly. The idea seemed great, but now that I was standing in his room I wasn’t really sure what my plan was.
“What’s going on?” Percy asked, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
I looked down, suddenly feeling bad for waking him up. “I haven’t been sleeping.” I whispered.
“What?” He asks.
I repeat myself, “I haven’t been-“
“You haven’t been sleeping?” He asks, sounding slightly upset. He rests his elbows on his knees and puts his head in his hands.
I shake my head, feeling a blush over my face. I could feel my delirious brain and heavy eyes a little bit more now.
“And you’re just telling me now?” He asks, looking disappointed.
“I didn’t want to stress anyone out.” I say, smiling bashfully.
He rolls his eyes, patting the spot next to him.
“Think Chiron will give us a free pass if he finds us both in here?” He asks, obviously trying to make light of the situation.
I chuckle, nodding, but knowing that Chiron would do just about anything to help the campers right now. The thought reminded me even more about the battle.
Percy turns to lay back under his blankets, leaving an open space for me. This is exactly how we used to do it when I was having my nightmares.
I laid down in my spot, trying to get comfortable. I stared at the ceiling, immediately feeling more drowsy than I did in my room.
We both lay there in silence for a few minutes, before l hear the blankets rustle and turn my head to see Percy facing me.
I turn to face him too.
He purses his lips and furrows his eyebrows, scanning my face, before asking, “Why did you ever stop coming in here?”
I look at him nervously, realizing that we were finally going to have this conversation. “You and Rachel…” I trail off, not knowing what else to say.
His eyes instantly widen, “me and Rachel?” He asks.
I nod. “I didn’t want to get in the way of anything if you guys…” I pause, choosing my words, “if you guys were like, together or anything.”
He scans my face, as if trying to determine if I’m joking. He lets out a small laugh, “Rachel and I were never together. I thought you knew that.”
I shake my head, eyes focusing on anything but his face.
He chuckles again, and I tuck my head into his chest, attempting to end the conversation there, but he decided to continue, “You know,” he paused, wrapping an arm around me to play with my hair, “when Beckendorf came to get me for our mission? Remember that?”
I nod, unsure of where this was going.
“Well, he saw Rachel kiss me.”
I tensed, uncomfortable with this conversation.
“Then after we left her, to go to the ship,” he continued, “do you know what he said to me?”
I shook my head.
“He said, ‘I’m assuming you don’t want me to tell Y/N about that, right?’” Percy said, continuing to play with my hair.
“Really?” I asked, confused, “Why?”
He was silent for long enough for me to wonder if he even heard me before he spoke up again. “Because I didn’t want you to know.”
I pulled away, looking up at his face. I scrunched my eyebrows together out of confusion. “Why not? We tell each other everything.”
He raises his eyebrows, shaking his head, “Really?”
“What?” I asked.
He opened his mouth as if to say something, then closed it again. His eyes scanned my face again before wrapping an arm around me and pulling me back into his chest.
I finally start to doze off, feeling my body relax. Before I am completely asleep I can feel a soft kiss being placed on the top of my head. Before I can even feel the butterflies that come from it, I fall sound asleep.
I wake up before the sun is up, unsurprisingly. I’m happy to have gotten even a few hours of sleep.
I turn on my side to see Percy snoring softly with a line of drool coming down from his mouth. I giggle quietly before moving away a little bit.
I debate going back to my cabin, so that I don’t get caught in here. The last thing any of us needed right now was to deal with rumors about us sleeping in the same cabin together.
I sit up, my eyes scanning for my slippers in the dark room. Just as I find them I hear stirring behind me.
“What are you doing?” Percy asks groggily.
I turn to see him rubbing his eyes again and suddenly feel guilty for waking him up two times now.
“I was just going to sneak out before I get caught in here.” I whisper, reaching down to put my slippers on.
“Stay,” he whispered, eyes closed.
I smiled, looking at how peaceful he looked in that moment.
I shake my head, but rest a hand on his arm. “I shouldn’t.” I whisper.
He groans, turning closer to me and opens his eyes. He looks up at me, slowly reaching up as he brushes a strand of my hair out of my face.
“I’ll cover for you in the morning.” He whispers softly, looking at me hopefully.
I smile but shake my head, “If anyone finds out I stayed here…” I whisper, “you know how they all talk.”
He looks at me for a moment, and then another moment, eyes scanning my face, before responding, “You know everyone already thinks we’re together, right?”
My eyes widen in shock, completely taken aback and unsure if I heard him right. “Us? Like- you and me? Together?”
He nods, looking straight into my eyes, eyebrows furrowed.
“Why?” I ask, incredibly confused. I had never heard this before and I had never told anyone how I really felt. Not even Annabeth.
He stared incredulously at me for another moment, before whispering, “Are you kidding? I really can’t tell.”
I shook my head and shrugged.
“Well… we’re together all the time. You used to sleep here. When I went missing and got amnesia you were the only person I could remember. I almost lost it when you got hurt in the battle in manhattan…” he searched my face for my reaction, “I can keep going if you want.”
I shook my head, understanding. “I guess that kind of makes sense.”
He nodded, looking at me as if he was waiting for me to say something else.
I stared at him for a moment, before my delirium allowed me to ask a rather bold question.
“What do you think about that?” I whispered, looking into his eyes.
His gaze felt heavy. He stared straight into my eyes, coughing, before saying, “Uhhh… what do you mean?”
I shook my head, “Nevermind.” I whispered.
He grabbed my hand, looking directly into my eyes, before saying, “About what everyone says? Or about us being together?”
“Both.” I whisper, staring straight back at him.
He pauses for a moment, looking down at our hands, then back into my eyes. “I think they have a point. And I think that they’re right. That we are basically together. Unless you’re thinking something different?”
I nodded slowly, thinking about all of the years that I’ve brushed off other boys because I didn’t have eyes for them like I do for him. I thought about all the time that we spent apart, and how it felt like a piece of me was missing. I thought about the battle of manhattan, when I saw him fighting and I had never felt such pride in my heart before. I knew it all along, I just didn’t know how to show it.
“It’s not that easy though, seaweed brain. We’re not basically together until you ask me out.” I chuckle, looking back down at him and realizing how intently he’s looking at me.
I slowly kick off my shoes and lay back down next to him. He still is looking at me intently and hasn’t said a word.
“What’s wrong?” I whisper, after another moment of silence.
He shakes his head, looking deeply into my eyes, and I see his gaze flicker to my lips for a millisecond.
Suddenly I can feel my heartbeat pick up. I’m now aware of every centimeter of my body that is close to his. It’s like all of my senses are dialed to 11.
Before I can even think twice I lean forward just slightly and he immediately grabs my face and his lips are on mine.
The kiss is soft, slow, and everything I could’ve ever imagined.
I can feel his hesitation, almost like he’s afraid I’ll pull away if he makes the wrong move.
I reach my hand around the back of his head and run my hand through his hair, bringing him closer to me. The kiss slowly becomes more passionate, my heart rate accelerating.
I don’t think either of us can hold back anymore. I tilt my head slightly, it’s like something inside me snaps. The kiss is intense, full of years of love and yearning toward one another. His hand moves slowly under the hem of my sleep shirt, shakey fingers trailing up my back, and I gasp into his mouth, enjoying the new sensation.
We had been close before, but never like this.
I hear Percy groan quietly, the sound beautiful but desperate, and my body is suddenly on fire. His other hand reaches to the back of my next to pull me even closer, deepening the kiss so that our tongues are dancing with each other. I can feel him breathing heavily as his hands explore my skin, fingers digging in in a way I never knew I needed.
My hands run through his hair, one leaving to clutch his shoulder, pulling him even closer to me. Percy’s mouth moves to my jaw, trailing hot, open-mouthed kisses down my neck, and I bite my lip to keep from making a sound, but it’s impossible. I let out a soft gasp, pressing even further into him.
“Gods,” Percy groans against my neck, continuing to bury his face into my neck and collarbone, definitely leaving marks that he knows he shouldn’t be. Especially not if I’m walking out of his cabin in the morning. His lips find mine again, but this time it feels more frantic, like we’re both on the verge of losing control. His hands are fully under my shirt now, his touch insistent, and I can’t help the small groan that escapes me.
I can’t stand it anymore as I tug at his shirt, pulling it up, desperate to feel more. He helps me, urgently pulling it over his head before desperately crashing his mouth back onto mine. His skin feels incredibly warm, his muscles tensing beneath my touch as I slowly run my nails down his chest. He groans into the kiss, kicking my legs with his own so that he can move to hover over me.
I can feel my back press into the mattress as Percy hovers over me, the weight of it making me shiver. His hands roam lower, gripping my hips roughly, and his mouth never stops—kissing, biting, trailing heat down my neck and back up again to capture my lips. Every move, every touch, is more desperate, more intense, and I can feel the years of pent-up tension between us boiling over.
We continue like this for longer than we should, desperately grabbing onto each others skin, mouths all over eachothers faces and necks, before we finally allow the kiss to slow down. The kiss fades to a soft, gentle one, and we slowly pull away.
I stare into his eyes, feeling a blush cover my face when I realize that this is real, and that just happened. He has the same look on his face as me, breathing heavy. His hair is all out of place and part of me wants to continue where we left off and mess up his hair a little more.
I bite my lip, holding back the smile that is trying to take over my face. He grins at me, his eyes sparkling.
“We’re definitely doing that again.” He smirks at me playfully.
“What took you so long?” I ask, nudging his arm and letting him lay back down beside me.
He shrugged, “Was never the right time. Can’t say I haven’t thought about it though. Maybe a little too much…” he trailed off.
I rolled my eyes, smacking his arm playfully before realizing how exhausted I had become.
“Can we go back to sleep?” I whisper, tucking my head into his chest again.
He nods, pressing a kiss on my head, and this time I feel the whole swarm of butterflies invade my stomach. I smile, and doze off.

Hello!
To celebrate the beginning of the Family Reunion Summer Camp, we (cabin 8) decided to offer every other participant and cabin a little something!
(Art and Mind’ O Wave AU by @liya4kar
EMD AU by @evenmoreofadisaster
Big Mama’s Favorite by @usernameneon)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I wasted so much time on this and now there are other asks and events and-
(In case you can't tell, this is how mini-tello is envisioning this. The panic from the 'bomb' made him feel like he was back in the Kraang war.)
Tumblr media
(Sorry. It getting everywhere made sense.)
So.
Rundown of the crew's reactions.
Mikey: plotting revenge.
Casey and Mini-tello: Kraang flashbacks. Casey blocked the slime with his cloak. That's why he's dry. Once they calm down, they'll pretend nothing happened, but Mini-tello will be doing everything he can to keep from lecturing you guys.
Raphael: Shocked, slightly betrayed, and he'll be embarrassed later.
Leo: impressed! He's still plotting revenge though.
Donnie: Grossed out and struggling with sensory issues. :( He will plot revenge when he's okay again.

In honour of today being 55 years since the first stone thrown at the Stonewall Uprising, here is some Valgrace fanfiction (definitely that and not the fact that I just happen to have finished it yesterday).
I am so, incredibly grateful to all those people who rioted from June 28th-July 3rd in Greenwich Village, New York, just so that I could one day have the right to post angsty little fics about these two fictional teenagers on my tiny Tumblr blog (That is what they were fighting for, right?). We have come so far, haven’t we? And I think it’s important, next time we read a silly little Valgrace fic or reblog some Solangelo fanart, we owe it all to a Black Trans Woman who threw the first stone (Seriously, guys, read into the Stonewall Riots, they are fascinating).
So the message here is… Don’t be mean, just read Valgrace?
Anyway-
Summary: AU where Valgrace is canon meaning that Leo came straight back to chb after BoO. Set at New Year’s, following the aftermath of the battle with Gaea and Leo’s “Death”. Leo struggles with flashbacks, having just exploded and therefore probably being traumatised. Jason comforts him, and they realise- even though they’re still scarred from the war- just how lucky they are to have each other, and to, for once, not have the weight of the world resting on their shoulders.
CW: Angst I guess
Word Count: 2,084
VALGRACE
Jason was swaddled in his scarf and winter coat. Leo had settled for just a jacket and gloves, after much grumbling.
“I don’t get cold like you do!” He’d complained, “I’m toasty warm!!”
He’d agreed to put on the jacket for the necessity of pockets (because his magic infinitely-pocketed tool belt apparently wasn’t enough). Jason, on the other hand, was freezing. He needed a sweater, a coat, a hat, a scarf AND his hot-water-bottle of a boyfriend to keep from turning blue. He’d spent most of his childhood at Camp Jupiter in California, where even wintertime was balmy. Here on Long Island, the air bit like an alley cat.
They walked down to the beach, the cold night air stinging Jason’s cheeks. Jason put an arm around Leo’s shoulders and rested his chin on the top of his curly-haired head, which made it awkward as they walked.
“…What’re you doing?” Leo asked.
“Mmm…” Was Jason’s response, “You’re warm…”
Maybe it was the whole “raised by wolves” thing, Jason had always had the urge to curl up on a comfortable lap and snore.
Leo didn’t push him off.
They stepped gingerly down to the docks, hug-walking as they went. A crowd of people had already gathered along the shoreline, looking out towards the ocean. A large clock had been set up to face them, the time reading 11:52.
“Eight minutes to go…” Jason said, taking his chin off of his human chin-rest and looking at Leo, “It’s been a hell of a year, hasn’t it?”
Leo nodded, “Yeah. I died.”
“We fought giants and monsters.”
“And I made a super awesome plate of enchiladas, my best yet!”
“Those were some really good enchiladas.”
Leo looked down, and Jason could see a little hint of sadness in his eyes. Then he looked back up at Jason.
“I’m glad I have you, Jason.”
Jason put an arm around him and pulled him closer as they looked out towards the clock and the sky and the sea, “I’m glad I have you, too, firefly.”
They stayed there, enjoying each other’s company, waiting for the New Year to drop, and for once, they were just regular boyfriends.
Then the countdown started.
“10… 9… 8…”
Jason looked into Leo’s deep brown eyes and smiled. Everything was perfect.
“7… 6… 5… 4…”
Leo smiled back, yelling the numbers alongside everyone else.
“3… 2… 1…”
They kissed.
“Happy New Year!!!!!”
And then, the first firework exploded, and everything went wrong.
Bang!
Leo’s face flashed with panic, his eyes darting around wildly like for a moment he’d forgotten where he was.
Bang! Bang!
Fireworks lit the sky, but Jason wasn’t looking. He was watching Leo’s face as the colours flashed across it, reds and greens and purples. The bright twinkle that reflected in his eyes was supposed to be that happy spark of wonder at the fireworks, but Leo’s eyes were filled with utter terror and dread. He pulled away from Jason, and took a few steps back, momentarily stunned by the explosions.
“Leo, what’s wrong?”
BANG!!
Leo yelped and wrapped his arms around his head, covering his ears. He stumbled back, colliding with some other campers in the crowd. They briefly stopped their whooping and cheering to shoot him a disgruntled look, then turned back to the sky.
Jason stepped forward, but Leo was looking around, confused, like his mind had gone somewhere else. His breath was short and panicked. His eyes were watery, staring in fear at the sky.
Bang!! Bang-bang!!!
Leo unwrapped his arms from his head, and used them to push through the bodies of staring people, stumbling and scarpering away from the noise.
Jason chased after him, “Leo, wait! Where are you-“
Leo had disappeared into the crowd.
Jason spent the next few minutes searching for him on the beach, no luck. He ignored the bangs behind him. The crowd ooh-ed and aah-ed at the explosions of light. Jason pushed through them, calling Leo’s name. He was getting worried. Leo knew how to disappear if he wanted to. If he was running scared, Jason wasn’t sure if he could find him before he got himself hurt. Why did he have to end up dating the flight risk? No, that was unfair. Leo’s runaway childhood was through no fault of his own. But if he was frightened, Jason had to find him quickly.
He searched the Hephaestus Cabin. Nothing. The forges. Nothing. The only other place Jason figured Leo would hide was Bunker 9. And sure enough, as soon as he’d entered, the large industrial lighting rig slammed on, and he could see Leo curled up against the wall, shivering. And Leo didn’t get cold.
“Leo?” He asked, “You okay?”
Leo shook his head, his hands still clutched around his ears. His voice was chocked with tears.
“Expl-explosions-” He managed, “Loud… very loud…”
Leo’s whole body was shaking. Jason crouched down next to him.
“When you… when you died? In that blast? The fireworks brought you back to that moment?”
He remembered the confused look in Leo’s eyes as he watched the colourful explosions light the sky- like he was somewhere else, hearing a different bang.
“I… I…” Leo wiped his eyes with the heel of his hand, and took a deep breath. He seemed to regain his composure, enough to look Jason in the eyes. “It was so painful, Jason… I was… and I didn’t understand why everyone was clapping.”
Ever since Leo had come back, he’d kept that same bubbly persona going. Jason hadn’t even realised how much actually dying had scarred him, but of course, it must have done. Leo never let on that he was haunted by that, but Jason could see it now clear as ever. Every firework would bring him back to that morning, when Leo had vaporised Gaea with the force of his own power.
Jason nodded. “I understand. The flashbacks… they’re hard. Particularly when everyone else seems to be unaffected. Your whole life flashes before your eyes and they’re cheering. It’s scary… But you’re safe now. Nothing’s gonna hurt you here.”
Jason wrapped his big strong arms around Leo’s shoulders and pulled him into a hug. Leo buried his face in Jason’s lap and began to sob. Jason stroked his hair.
“Shh… it’s okay… you’re safe now… you’re safe…”
Outside the thick walls of Bunker 9, muffled bangs continued. Leo whimpered at every single one.
“It’s okay, Leo… they can’t hurt you… you’re safe with me…”
“I’m sorry…” Leo sobbed.
“Shh. Shh. Sorry for what, Baby?”
Leo rolled over in Jason’s lap so that he was looking up into his eyes, “For ruining New Year’s with my stupid PTSD. You should be out there enjoying yourself instead of worrying about me, crying like a baby who’s afraid of a little fireworks.”
“No. No. Stop thinking like that. Stop it, right now. As your commanding officer, I forbid it.”
“You’re not my commanding officer!” Leo complained, indignantly, “Those are only to Roman soldiers. At Camp Half-Blood, we’re both head counsellors. We’re of equal station.”
“Fine,” Jason rolled his eyes, “As your boyfriend then. You’re banned from calling yourself stupid. You’re not stupid, Leo. You’re hurting. You’re scared. It’s okay, you have a right to feel those things. It’s totally normal, considering what you’ve been through.”
Leo was silent for a long time. Then he said, “Actually, I have the title of Supreme Commander, so I outrank you.”
Jason chuckled, “How about Prince then? My dad is King of the universe.”
“Holy Hephaestus, you’re right… I’m dating a freaking Prince.”
They laughed and settled into comfortable silence for a few moments. Then Leo’s expression turned sad.
“I know that I- I joke about it a lot, but I was… dead. I was actually dead, Jason.”
“I know… I know…”
“Like, I actually died. And… I can’t help but wonder… how she felt…”
“You mean your mom?” Jason asked.
Leo nodded, “How much pain I was in… I put her through that…”
“No… Baby, no…”
“Yeah, yeah, I know it was Gaea who caused it, but it was my flames that burned her. Or maybe it was smoke inhalation or something, I dunno, but it came from me. The pain she felt was a direct result of something that came from inside me. And I felt it, too. When I killed Gaea. It was horrible. I finally understood how she would’ve felt. Except it would’ve been worse for her, wouldn’t it? Trapped in that workshop, helpless, alone, as the flames rose up.”
Leo paused. Jason just studied him, silently. At the lack of new input, Leo continued, “What was she thinking? Did she see the fire and know that I’d done that? I mean, she didn’t know that Gaea was there. In those final moments, dying by her son’s hand, did she think I’d let her down? Because I couldn’t control it? Did she realise with a sinking feeling that all her worst fears were confirmed, that I really was too dangerous? Was she disappointed in herself for not raising me right? For not teaching me to be more careful? It’s just… once you’ve faced your own death, experienced the thoughts going through your head in those final moments, you start to wonder what other people thought during theirs. I dunno…”
Jason thought about that, “No, no, I get it. I understand.”
It had taken a while for Leo to get to a point where he could talk to Jason so openly like that. Where he could share the thoughts that haunted him, articulate his feelings in a way that Jason could understand. Even if he didn’t understand sometimes, he still listened. But most of the time, he could empathise with Leo- probably more than Leo realised. Jason himself hadn’t been dead, but he’d come close. And what Leo had said about thinking in those final moments… that resonated with him. He thought about his own mom. Did she think about him at all in that car crash? Did she regret abandoning him, not reaching out? Or did she not care?
“I get it,” Jason said again, “I mean, I actually lost you. It might’ve been only for a day or so, but for a few moments you weren’t on this planet at the same time as me. I don’t really want to think about it, the fact that I could’ve…”
He stroked Leo’s hair, as Leo started to cry.
“I’m sorry, Jason…” He mumbled.
“No… No, what’re you sorry for?”
“I don’t know,” Leo admitted, “Putting you through that, I guess.”
“Oh, Baby… No… I mean, it hurt, but you came back. All is good.”
“And I’m sorry to my mom.”
“She’ll forgive you. She knows you didn’t mean it.”
“You don’t know that.”
“I can take an educated guess,” Jason told him, “I’m Prince of the freaking Cosmos, remember? You have to listen to me.”
Jason rubbed Leo’s shoulder as Leo lay in his lap, “Look, Leo, you’re valuable. You’re needed. You deserve love, and forgiveness, and patience, and everything else. You’re brilliant, and awesome, and cool.”
“I know,” Leo said.
“Then why don’t you believe me when I tell you that? This was not your fault. You don’t need to keep kicking yourself about it. You did good. You saved the world. You avenged her death. You are loved. You are cared for. You are forgiven.”
Leo burst into tears.
“Shhh… it’s okay…” Jason soothed, “You can rest, now.”
“You can rest, now…”
Long had Jason waited to hear those words. And now, looking down at Leo, eyes closed, head rested on Jason’s knee, his breathing getting increasingly steadier- he realised how much Leo had needed them, too. And he found, with absolute certainty, that it was true for them both. There were no explosions. There was no Gaea. They were safe, here, at Camp. They had each other. It would take time for the nightmares to end, for the scars to fade. It would mean Leo would not be able to enjoy fireworks for a long time, maybe never. But they were safe. They could rest here, until daybreak. They might even skip breakfast and sleep in all morning. No urgent quests needed to be undertaken. No oracles prophesied their deaths. Leo had Jason to dry his tears. Jason had Leo to keep him warm. They were beaten and damaged, but they were alive. And they could rest, knowing that they had each other. For that, Jason was eternally grateful.

TFA X ROTTMNT crossover imagine Idea:
What if back when Splinter was Lou Jitsu he got spirited away in the TFA universe as a cybertronian thanks to a magical artifact long time ago before the first autobots-decepticons War, became a Gladiator against his will, meet Megatron and end up becoming "Friends" with him, build himself a reputation among Cybertronians and became a Well known History figure After managing to get his Freedom back and managed to get all the other Gladiator, Megatron included, free?
What if years After Lou Jitsu managed to get back to his universe and the ROTTMNT canon happen the turtles found the Magic artifact, end up in the TFA universe turned into cybertronians and two of them are warframes while the other two are civilframe?
I got way into this AU crossover the more I wrote about it and I just want to say that you, my friend, are a genius for coming up with it.
-Lou Jitsu's alter ego when he was a cybertronian was Splinter. Yeah, I'm basic like that. His alt mode would have been either a jet or a race car though I'm a bit partial to him having a car alt mode, simply because I could really see him turning into some flashy 80's sport car.
-Becoming a really popular gladiator not only for his fighting skills but also for bringing in his theatrics to the ring. They don't know that but whenever he wants to seem cool he says a one liner from one of his movies. The crowd ate it up every time. He's also really handsome as a bot so he's got a ton of fans.
-Ok but wouldn't be really cool if Splinter kinda revolutionized the cyber-ninja scene??? Like, up until his appearance it had kinda stagnated but when he shows up and shows up his amazing moves all the cyber-dojos go "YOOOOOO, THAT'S FUCKING AWESOME" and he basically starts the cyber-ninja renaissance. He also probably gets offered to become the leader of his own dojo but he declines the offer because he doesn't wanna abandon his new gladiator-buddies.
-Young Yoketron being his pupil??? Showing up one day like Genos in One Punch man and begging for Splinter to become his master??? YOKETRON YELLING "HOT SOUP" EVEN THOUGH HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS???
Prowl: Master, is it true that you trained under the master Splinter?
Yoketron: Yes, my pupil, I indeed did.
Prowl: Amazing, I've heard so much about him. What was he like?
Yoketron: He was... very wise. *flashback to Splinter forgetting how to use his brakes while in alt mode and crashing into a wall*
-Also, as for the brothers, if two of them are warframes then I imagine it being Raph and Leo. Raph because, well, he's built like a brick, it makes sense, and Leo because his weapons are the most lethal, made to kill. Also, Raph would be a tank while Leo would be a jet. Meanwhile, Donnie's alt mode would be like a microscope/telescope or something while Mikey would be a racer, either a motorcycle or a race car. I just want Mikey to have wheels on his pedes and rollerblade around while fighting.
-I also want some cyber-ninja dojo to 'discover' Mikey's talents, both as a ninja and spiritually, and taking him in. And Mikey can't tell them the truth, that he's already trained, so he has to pretend to be a newbie but instead he comes off as an actual genius, a prodigy only seen once every eon (he is a prodigy though so they're not too far off). Mikey shows them his 'magic hands' and the old coots practically faint.
-Meanwhile, Donnie gets similarly 'discovered' by the autobot Ministry of Science when they take notice of his remarkable intelligence and honestly? Donnie eats up the attention and praise. Perceptor and Wheeljack are fighting over who gets to mentor him and Donnie just does "Gentlemen, please, the answer is obvious; You both teach me everything you know. I want to know it all."
-Splinter, after becoming a mutant, turns into a cybertronian again but he looks really different so no one recognizes him. He's a beast-former now with a rat alt mode, about the height of Bumblebe (maybe even shorter). He kinda radiates this mystical air though, only perceivable to those with more spiritual senses, like Prowl.

Edit: Added some ideas of what Bot-Splinter would look like, both before and after mutating.

i don’t think the trauma hits owain/odin until after anankos is killed.
he never knew peace. he was so unbelievably young when the war started, as there was war before there were risen, that chances are, the only little bit of peace he’d ever seen was in the few months before anankos showed up and begged him, severa, and inigo for help, so he donned a persona and fit himself into the role of a retainer—another soldier, another fighter, just with a more refined name.
and then he fought for leo. he fought for garon. he fought the war, and perhaps he killed anankos along the way, or perhaps he and selena hoisted laslow’s body in a casket and used their crystals as odin bid farewell to his lord turned king. and then he returns home—wherever home is, whether it be ylisse or nohr—and is met with… peace.
if he stays in nohr, it takes longer to set in. there are still skirmishes, still reparations, still things that must settle down and things that he must manage by leo’s side. but as peace settles a blanket over nohr, as odin no longer has things to worry about every moment of every day, is no longer worrying about battle after battle or training or building up public trust—well, first come the nightmares, then the flashbacks, then the triggers.
if he goes to ylisse, it’s faster. ylisse has settled, by now, almost irregardless of how much time passed in ylisse versus nohr. there are no battles to fight, no wars to win. owain barely counts as a prince in the ylisse he returns to, with his counterpart already born or maybe, if the time is far different, simply on the way. there is little for him to do, and so the images of risen haunt him—whispers of their magic in dark corners, their eyes in the reflections of stained-glass windows, their rotten stench in the stables.
he is fine. he is fine, he is happy, he is healthy, he is stable. but then when everything he has built himself up around crumbles—when there is no longer a cause to fight for, no longer people who need protecting—he collapses, completely and utterly.

More headcanons about SUNBOMB. :333 (Leo x Will.)
Leo loves to flirt with Will and crack dirty jokes out of nowhere. Like they can be walking in the woods. (Not past the borders.) And Leo just charismatically crack a flirty joke at Will and Will might jump blushing - looking like he got sunburned for the first time.
Will always worries for the son of Hephaestus, and normally scolds him for his recklessness. Everytime he gets hurt.
They both love the heat and absolutely hate the fucking cold. (Cuddles all day, during winter.)
Will does love the affectionate hugs, Leo gives during winter because Leo's body heat gives him warmth and Will normally clings onto him like a cat. :3
(TW - S3LFH@RM MENTIONED.) Will helps Leo with his urges to self harm himself, and would heals his self-inflicted scars. He makes sure he stops working in the workshop and stays at Will's bed, or in the infirmary as Will watches over him. He definitely praises him for trying staying clean for longer periods and tries to encourage him to continue staying clean for longer periods.
Leo helps Will with his insecurities by praising him and reassuring him that he doesn't need to be good in anything else. Just to feel useful, and while Will helps him with his insecurity of not being enough for Will. And reassuring him that he loves him sm, he can't even bring himself to leave him.
Both have bracelets that represent each other. A sun pendant bracelet for Leo and a fire pendant bracelet for Will.
Will definitely has thought many times of putting Leo on a leash.
Will's love language is physical affection and words of affirmation, and Leo's love language is quality time and also physical affection. Both provide those things for the both of them as much as they need. And they always end up loving each other due to that.
Will has inherited his father's artistic abilities to make something and creates a little Festus plushie out of crochet. And Leo makes a dagger with the cabin 7's emblem of the sun. And they both hand it to each other on their anniversary and have a laughing fit. (Leo sleeps with the plushie all the time, and Will carries that dagger with him everywhere.)
The sun and fire pendant bracelets has some kind of connection with each other. Both can detect if their owner is in danger and sends that signal to it's partner. (The other bracelet.) And it's owner will get the signal due to the little pendant glowing. And due to that reason, whenever Leo goes on a quest with the seven Will always has his bracelet glowing and he's always incredibly anxious, everytime and at this point might die from a heart attack. (He doesn't, though. :3)
They both agree that the new star wars movies are ass and that they've become bland and don't follow the cool lore anymore. Will especially might riot because of it.
Both love kissing each other as a greeting of some sort.
Always is touching each other. (Not sexually, they're minors.) Like holding hands, or the other is clinging onto the other, and the other has an iron grip on their arm.
(SPOILER ALERT‼️) Will always has flashbacks of Leo exploding when he witnesses or hears an explosion somewhere.
When Leo finds himself at Calypso's island. He's either extremely glad that he's alive. And also extremely panicked that he's far away from any one else. And his hands starts to shake with the urge of wanting Will near him.
Leo just pops by in the infirmary and sits around anywhere and it's claimed as his. And it's always near Will whenever he's working.
Both has urges to protect one another when monsters attack. Like the first thing they look for is each other. (Probably it's because Will knows he can get himself in trouble, and Leo just knows Will CANNOT fight a monster.)
Calls Will, "Rapps." Or "Rapunzel." When he found out about Will's ability to glow.
Loves calling Leo, "Lee." because it's his brother's name, and Lee adorably suits him somehow.
Leo is convinced that he has pulled a living Disney Princess, when he finds Will with a bunch of animals. Surrrounding him. Like bro has horses, chipmunks, mice, squirrels, snakes, doves, crows, butterflies, bunnies, following him. (The animals feel safe with Will cause he doesn't look intimidating at all.)
Will loves dogs, and Leo definitely does like cats. Their loves for a specific animals suits their partners somehow.
Leo made a celestial bronze shotgun, with celestial bronze bullets for Will when he finds out Will got himself in a very dangerous situation with a monster. (Will has that shvt right next to his bed, just in case.)
Everytime there's a fight, and someone needs to break it out. William will use the opportunity to use his shotgun as a way to break fights. Leo is absolutely smitten and proud of that.
Leo definitely had thought of trying to court Will multiple times. But on the first try of ACTUAL doing so, he already got Will confessing that he had liked him the time he arrived at Camp. (It boosted Leo's ego.)
There is a reason why most people don't bully Will or Leo. Like some son of Ares of a bitch. Walks up to either of them and starts to bully them. One alternate ending is them getting burned at the stake. And the other is a gun to the leg. If both are bullied at the same time. One will walk away, while the other almost starts a forest fire.
Everytime they are allowed to leave camp, Leo takes Will to go and steal something. Will is against the idea but cannot bear to deny him everytime Leo pulls out his puppy dog eyes card and so always ends up going back to Chiron with a new S.W.A.T team after them. (Will likes the thrill of being chased some how.)
Both CANNOT stay in a serious situation without the other cracking each other up with a joke.
At Will's breaks in the infirmary he always visits Leo in the workshop and hangs around him, or either clinging onto each other because they're both eachother's charging port or energy booster. If you visit Leo in the workshop while Will's on break. You'll find Will asleep in Leo's lap while Leo works on something.
Leo and Will as much as possible tries to get the other to stop working as much, and would normally use the kissing tactic to distract them from overworking. (It always works, and Leo normally does this when he wants Will near him.)
Will is at first okay, when he finds Leo at camp. But after like the second day of Leo being at camp he finds himself smitten. (He has his father's tendencies to fall in love with people all the time.) Leo finds out that he's fallen in love with Will, and he's down BAD.
They both love You Belong With Me. by Taylor Swift.
Both allow each other to be themselves more freely. (Both are insane at some point, and they approve of it.)
When both they decide to fuck around and find out. (Or do something stupid.) It's normally at the same time. And they both share the same ideas.
Will: "Do you wanna blow something up?"
Leo: "Hell yeah, I already know who to blow up."
Both will go ballistic if the other dies. (One might start to set the world ablaze the other might have people dropping dead.)
They surprisingly work well together, than most people think.
Both atleast has eachother's clothes at some point mixed in their closets\drawers.
Leo definitely wouldn't trade Will for the world and Will would go to the underworld and back for Leo.
The Aphrodite campers were definitely pitying Leo everytime he brought up himself being the seventh wheel, so they shoved Will into his life at some point.
That's all my headcanons for them. :3 lemme know what you think and add more headcanons for them in the comments if you please I would love that. This ship is growing on me and I love it. 😭😍‼️😭😭😭
I WILL BE THE FIRST AND OG MEMBER OF THIS SHIP RAHAHHHHHHBSMKWKEKSISHEB 👹👹👹👹

My opinions for Riordan verse books that no one asked for but will provide anyways
WARNING THERE ARE A LOT OF THESE SO IN THE WORDS OF SCAR 'BE PREPARED'
・Three book long series, first with Luke running away until he finds Thalia, second after they find Annabeth and their travels, third after Thalia dies and their time at camp before Percy, all from Luke's pov, we get more insight on his backstory and how he felt throughout everything outside of Percy's pjo which is where we saw everything. Also maybe we could get some Thalia x Luke before the betrayal..?
・A five book long series with a crossover with mcaga, tkc and pjo/hoo/toa, we already know their are some problems rising and I think some of the interaction (eg. Alex with Nico and Will with Magnus) could be really interesting to see. Also I feel like there could be something involving bringing Jason back as his death felt really unnecessary and sort of... Idk unfinished or something. Another idea I had for this was after maybe the first one or two books Percy in a way becomes Luke, trying to reach him in any way and carrying out his plan of overthrowing the gods however this time not with the help or Kronos but just trying to convince the other demigods to join him and a kind of descent to madness with him being tired of getting used.
・A standalone book, sort of like tsats except it's about Jason's life with Lupa and his time at Camp Jupiter, maybe just a short story but I feel like it could be good.
・Similar to the previous, a story about Reyna and her life before HoO, maybe a split pov with her and her sister because I feel like that story has a lot of potential.
・A book about Leo, set around the same time as tsats, maybe something to do with his dad or with the waystation, probably involving Calypso, Piper and Reyna (maybe him and Cal getting more development (OR A BREAK UP PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF APOLLO) and kind of fleshing her out because right now she doesn't have much character imo) maybe he could also try to convince Hazel or Nico (probably Hazel because I feel like he doesn't have enough development with Nico to play this out) to let him see Jason again and him trying to join him.
・A bunch of short stories (like 10ish pages each length) of Rachel's experiences being the Oreacal and just what it's like, maybe also giving her some development with other characters (maybe Nico with them bonding on feeling out of place) and also some story with her family and how her life is.
・A collection of short stories which is basically just fluff because we don't get enough of that (Solangelo, Fierrochase, Percabeth, etc.)
・ Another short story (I'm sorry I warned you) with Annabeth right after the war, about her being mad at Luke, upset about his death, still caring about him and her getting a visit from Hermes, maybe expecting sympathy but just getting blamed for his death, also maybe a flashback of Luke asking her to leave in a nightmare.
・A book just with everyone's reaction to Jason death because I hate myself, not just in the moment but like a few weeks after and what they did and stuff (Leo, Piper, Frank, Hazel, Percy, Annabeth, Reyna, Nico)
・A collection of short stories about minor characters (Kayla, Austin, Connor, Travis, Clarisse, Lavinia, and just like under appreciated characters)
・A book with Reyna and Thalia split pov about them being in the Hunt and maybe a mission and Reyna could find out more about Bianca stuff. They could also maybe secretly get together but keep it hidden to stay in the hunt (or they leave the hunt and join the Amazons with Hylla (Reyna's sister) and they kind of start to bond) Also Hazel could be brought up because she technically stole from them.
・A short story with Nico and Bianca's life in the 1930s/when they're in the Lotus Casino, how they felt, what their life was like, etc.
Obviously a bunch of these short stories would be in one book, comment your suggestions xx
UPDATE BECAUSE I COMPLETELY FORGOT
・a book on Alabaster, his time at camp, maybe him meeting Nico in the time between pjo and hoo cuz that would be cool, what he does after Son of Magic, interactions (maybe relationship...?) with Ethan. Also just like a whole three book series about him and he could be in that cross over book (second idea), maybe as a villain or someone who helps Percy when he wants to overrule the gods
・A book on Ethan, just what his life's been like, maybe something like the diary of Luke Castellen
・this one would probably be part of another book/story/series but Grover going sort of insane, maybe possessed by Gaia (because let's be honest the fight was a bit anticlimactic, hoo is probably still my favorite series but that ending was kinda meh after all the build up, I think something that would have made it more dramatic would have been Percy not letting everyone else take control (his fatal flaw is personal loyalty) then when Leo dies (which was his plan anyways) he blames himself for it because he thought if he'd listened and stayed aside he would have lived anyways that was off topic) because he doesn't like how nature's getting ruined and it's a 1v1 fight with him and Percy and he would try to talk him out of it because he doesn't want to fight his best friend but ya know he's been possessed and can't tell it's his best friend so Percy ends up surrendering (maybe dying but that seems like a bad story choice because he's the main character and that would be a bad choice logically because you would have to bring him back (if they were to do that then it could be like the Orpheus and Eurydice story except Annabeth has to do a bunch of tasks for Hades and Nico's begging him to make it easy for her and her pride makes her think she can save them all (Luke, Jason Bianca, Ethan, Selina, Beckendorf etc.) and ends up saving none of them the Nico and Hazel have to bargain with Persephone and Hades to let Percy come back) which then after Grover gets released but it's before Percy comes back so he has to live with that guilt but at the same time he still hates humans for destroying nature and (this is a bit out there hold on) he becomes the I guess new Pan and is protecting nature. (This would also probably be a part of the second idea (again) but before Percy wants to overthrow Zeus so that he has the power of a God on his hands)

Day 20: Team Awesome
Tumblr media
"Why is Raph sulking on the couch?" Leonardo had asked, wandering into their shared living room, observing a curled-up Raph; steam rising off of his green skin.
Mikey, who was cowering away in the kitchen, turned to Leo with sorrow in his eyes, "I did a terrible thing." he muttered. Perplexed, Leo nudged Mikey to say more, but the young teen only rolled his eyes, "Okay, well, it all started when..."
Leo stared at his brother, "Erm, Mikey?" no response, "Are you doing that thing where you trail off into a flashback? You know you can't do that in real life, right? It's important to me that you know that."
No response.
But for all who want to know, the young master Michael was besting his older brother in a video game tournament. The two were known to be the best thumb tappers in all of the sewers, so it was only natural the pair wanted to host a competition to see who was the best.
It was a close game, though it had been a 'close game' for nearly four hours. The game itself? Just a simple brawl type, something Donnie had salvaged from an abandoned arcade in lower Queens. It had only been up and running for two days before Raph had conquered a new high score. From that point on it had been an all-out war between the four brothers to outdo one and another. Leo had left first, saying he had more important things to do, then it was Donatello, claiming he had to break some scientific theories.
That had only left Mikey and Raph, competing until the other failed. They'd only stop for an occasional food break, but even then, it would only last for a second before they were back on the machine.
"Ya better just give up now, Mikey. Ain't no way ya beatin' me!" Raph boasted, knocking his body weight against his brother. The small teen wobbled before stabilising himself, "Hey, no fair, man! That's cheating!"
Four hours turned into five hours and five hours turned into seven. Donnie had walked back into the lair to grab a glass of water, he turned his attention from his battling brothers to the time on the oven.
3.01 am.
Sighing, Donnie waltzed up to the two in a sleep-deprived daze, "Shouldn't you guys call it quits, it's getting pretty late."
"Stay out of it, nerd-atello. I'm not quittin' till Mikey fails."
"And I'm not quitting till Raph fails!"
Donnie rolled his eyes and went back to the dark depths of his lab.
----
"So you stayed up all night to win a stupid game?" Leo interjected, arms folded over his chest, "What's new?" he remarked. Mikey shook his head, "It's not just that, bro. You see..."
----
Mikey was the first to yawn, sparking some attention from Raph, "Uh ohhh, looks like ya gettin' tired there, Mike. Ya better head off to bed."
"And leave you to get the high score? No way, dude! I'm staying up all night to beat your butt!" Mikey declared, forcing back another yawn. Another hour had passed, both boys were feeling completely dead on the inside, slow eyes barely blinking as they mindlessly pressed buttons. And that's when it happened, Raph, who at this point was fighting the battle one-handed while his other hand lay under his chin, had slipped. His head fell, quickly hitting the thumb-pad and ultimately losing a point in the game.
This now meant Raph could no longer get the high score.
Mikey jumped up in realisation, screaming at the top of his lungs, "I did it! I DID IT! In your face, Raph! Suck it!" he started doing a little victory dance. Raph scowled, he was suddenly full of energy. Grabbing the machine in a violent grasp, he began shaking it, "No fair, I fell asleep! I want a rematch!"
"Nu-uh, I'm retiring as the ultimate champion."
"Ya can't just do that?"
"I believe it says so right here!" Mikey laughed, pointing to his butt. Raph growled and sulked away to the couch, giving Mikey the silent treatment.
----
"So now you understand the terrible thing I've done." Mikey solemnly said, head down and shoulders slumped. Leonardo held back a laugh, Mikey clearly felt guilty, but Leo reminded him that at the end of the day, Mikey used his skill and some luck and won fairly. He did suggest apologising to Raph with some pizza and scary movies, which Mikey happily obliged with.
