#Like I love Percy but he’s so fucked up

You see there are two versions of Lost Boys in my head
Percy and Jacob connect over their similar pasts and end up in a happy sweet and loving relationship where they work through their individual struggles together and get better
Percy, who is a fucked up little shit with no self awareness or half decent communication skills, meets a cute guy who’s into him and thinks to himself “hey, this’ll be a great distraction from the fucked up mess that was my last relationship.” He unintentionally leads Jacob on for multiple months, and it ends up going down like the towers on 9/11
#Both versions are fun depending on how I’m feeling#Like I love Percy but he’s so fucked up#I know that he’s capable of being in a healthy relationship but like I don’t think that comes naturally to him either#Sometimes I like to think about him getting better but also I love drama#I know I��ve been really annoying about them and I’m so sorry about that but it either this or them rotating in my mind like a microwave#And I don’t want to accidentally blow my kitchen up#Lost Boys ship#I’m not tagging hfth in don’t want this on the tag#You can add your own thoughts and stuff if you want I want to hear it i just don’t want to clog the fandom tag

Nico and Percy's dynamic through the series is eternally funny to me, because it's just. like.
Percy's having a constant mental struggle between his fatal flaw of loyalty with a promise he made to Bianca to protect Nico, versus his Big 3 kid desire to maim other Big 3 kids / Poseidon descendant urge to totally maim Nico specifically. He hates Nico so so much. He thinks Nico's annoying and weird at best, and creepy/sketchy when he's older. The only positive thoughts Percy has towards Nico are "He's Bianca's brother and Bianca was my friend and I owe her/He's Hazel's brother and Hazel is my friend and would kill me if I was mean to him," "He's a powerful asset and useful ally (if questionable)," and "He's kinda pathetic and I feel maybe a little bad about it." Percy has multiple occasions throughout the series where he strongly considers - and on one occasionally actually goes through with - throttling Nico.
Meanwhile, Nico is following around Percy like a lost puppy. He explicitly can never bring himself to even dislike anything about Percy no matter how hard he tries. He has a whole bit in BoO where he's mentally going "UGH he's so stupid BUT IT'S ENDEARING HOW DARE HE." He's totally smitten. He's making deals with his dad for Percy. He's making convoluted plans to help Percy stand a chance against Kronos. During the entirety of BoTL it's like he's playing tsundere - "I'm helping NOT PERCY SPECIFICALLY with this quest! Me helping Percy would be SILLY because I DEFINITELY HATE HIM." Then he proceeds to show up to Percy's birthday party to basically ask him on a weird date and spend the entire next book scrambling around trying to help him or protect him or impress him. And Percy could not give less of a shit.
Just. That dynamic is so funny to me. Percy is the founder of the Nico Protection Club in that he's the one they're all protecting Nico from and meanwhile Nico is throwing himself at Percy to the point where the literal god of gay love calls him out on it.
#pjo#percy jackson#nico di angelo#Percy shows up at CJ and squints at Nico like ''hm. why do i feel like i hate you? like i just wanna punch you in the face?''#and Nico just immediately goes ''huh no idea anyways i have to go-'' and jumps into Tartarus#but not before he gives Hazel essentially a detailed explanation of ''this is Percy i cant say much but please dont let him die <3''#and Nico's whole Tartarus trip was basically a whole ''im doing this so no one else has to''#only for Percy and Annabeth to fall in like one book later and Nico proceeds to spend the next book internally screaming about it#and then Cupid calls him out on it and the next book#Nico's just like ''at this point im hoping i keel over within the next week just so i can force this dumb crush to chill the fuck out''#Nico staring pointedly at Will: ''For my own sake i need to form another crush RIGHT NOW so i can finally get over Percy.''#''this has been so bad for my health''#Nico's crush on Percy is just too funny to me. horrible pick my guy. terrible job. love that for you. he could not be less interested.#Percy LITERALLY TRIES TO KILL NICO and ditch him in the underworld and Nico is somehow STILL like ''but i love him''#Percy basically chokes him. beats up his dad. tells him ''go get smited by your dad for me.'' and ditches him.#and Nico's opinions/crush on him DO NOT CHANGE#though also Nico's reaction to Percy beating up his dad + skeletons is SO funny. his jaw is on the floor. he's flustered about it.#he just witnessed Percy be incredibly hot and proceeded to go ''yea i'll do anything for this man. collect reinforcements of 3 gods? sure''#nico you absolute DISASTER with HORRIBLE TASTE. you can do better. raise your standards.#which tbh is funnier when you factor in sun and the star. Nico just wont stop crushing on guys who dislike him and everything he stands for

It's canon that Jason Todd can only be attracted to people who're willing to stand up to him and hates the idea of sex without love and i feel someone needs to tell the DC fandom that
#not a diss at softer people who simp for jason i'm one of them or ones who smut him up respectfully i do too even if not in the same way!#i'm looking at people who act like jason likes being mean to his partner but gets pissed at reciprocation(he loves bickering as flirting)#or is a h*rndog exclusively into fucking and shallow taste(he's canonically a v!rgin and his gfs are a butch a wasian woman and a black one#you guys' standards in men are so LOOOOOOW stop dragging him DOOOOOOOOON he's literally as high up there as percy jackson#jason todd#pro jason todd#black jason todd#latino jason todd#afrolatino jason supremacy#trans jason todd#autistic jason todd#jayeddie#eddie bloomberg#jayrose#rose wilson#jaytemis#artemis grace#jaykyle#kyle rayner#jaydana#dana harlowe#anti batcest#anti slade wilson#anti black mask#antijayroy#roy harper#antijaykory#koriand'r#x black!reader#summerposting

constantly thinking about vex and percy giving each other a life neither of them could've dreamed of or ever thought they deserved or might realistically have. how they saved each other from themselves and their respective self-hating tendencies. how they can only trust each other with certain things because they know the other can handle it. how they're the perfect team. how they communicate so effectively and clearly. absolutely no one is doing it like them
#I am skjdfkdjskf about them all the time#I will never ever stop loving them#critical role#cr1#perc'ahlia#percy x vex#vex x percy#vex'ahlia#percival de rolo#percy de rolo#vex'ahlia de rolo#also like. don't get me wrong I love a tragic messy toxic ship just as much as one like this#but perc'ahlia is just as interesting as a fucked up ship because THEY are fucked up individuals#and they SUPPORT each other through figuring out how to be less fucked up#not even in a 'I can fix him/her' way but in a like. she needs some extra love right now way#or he needs some extra comfort right now. she needs some extra space right now#and they just give it to each other willingly#it's so sweet

jasico server was chatting about the cupid scene and jason getting nico's memories blasted straight into his brain and how jason being shot with one of cupid's arrows while with nico and this was just never brought up in canon again and now i'm thinking like...what if that's just how cupid's arrows work? not by magically manifesting love for someone out of nothing, but by giving someone the perspective that'd make them fall in love naturally? jason gets a front row seat to nico's memories and instantly understands him intimately and can trust him completely without any doubt or suspicion
so what if jason, after slowly realizing he's totally in love with nico, just thought back to the arrow incident and it made him second-guess everything? because maybe he's only feeling this way because cupid hit him with an arrow with only nico was around and it's no different than any other god messing with his love life
#i live for anything that drags out the pining/pre-relationship period as long as possible okay#give me the drama of jason frustrated about constantly being manipulated by gods#in love with nico but convinced it's just cupid fucking with him and not wanting nico to get dragged into it#maybe telling nico eventually because he's having trouble hiding his feelings and he doesn't wanna hurt nico by confusing him#which is of course an emotional rollercoaster for nico#hearing jason say he's in love with him only to then immediately hear that it's just godly fuckery#nico agreeing to help jason find cupid to get it reversed because he knows how much it sucks having feelings for someone unwillingly#and he doesn't want jason stuck mooning over someone like him just because he was unkucky enough to be with nico for the cupid incident#whole quest in which nico develops feelings in return and angsts because he's sure jason only feels that way because of the arrow#maybe a slip-up in the middle somewhere with nico accidentally revealing he likes jason back before backpedaling wildly#so now jason has hope despite himself because he'd never really thought it was possible anyway given nico's feelings for percy#and he doesn't like being manipulated by gods but he doesn't mind the idea of being in love with nico#and what if he just gave up on the hunt for cupid entirely and let it happen#while nico feels guilty since clearly it's just cupid arrow magic fucking with jason and he's enabling it#and then of course when they finally find cupid he explains how his arrows work and that he can't just FORCE someone to be in love#no more than hera could with jason and piper by fucking with their memories to push them together#cupid's methods are just way more effective#my tag babble ended up longer than the actual post oh my god#pjo#jasico#my dumb headcanons

rereading random bits of descendants of olympus (as one does) and. vera <3 still soooo obsessed with how she takes lupa's divinity. like MAN.......there is something to how shes had to scrape and claw her way into every single good thing shes ever had. that she's never just been able to KEEP these things, that she is always always always fighting for them. and so of course she takes divinity. she wants to LIVE. and in this world where the fates themselves are trying to control her, its like--yeah. maybe you do need a gods power to finally get like, at least a year of the life you want. the life you werent supposed to have. forever thinking about vera's one line in her chapter thats like 'of course the fates are losing power. because they'd never let someone like leo into my life.' YELLS. FOREVER.
also have we talked enough about minnie I THINK WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT MINNIE--
#chatter#son of sea foam#sosf#yeah fuck it im not scared veraposting in the main tags#unrelated to verapost but also i reread the end of ethans chapters and GOD.

luke going “she's my little sister” in reference to annabeth really hope they stick with that and they don't make it weird like in the books later on (the last olympian) let them stick with that family dynamic please i beg
#when luke asked annabeth if she loved him in tlo i thought he meant in like. a family sense#like. platonic. in a sibling way#but then nope apparently the guy meant it romantically which was. fucked up in a lot of ways 💀#pjo#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#luke castellan#annabeth chase#pjo spoilers#like i understand if annabeth had like. a kid crush on him to begin with when they first started travelling#but thats it. a kid crush. not real feelings. just admiration. then she saw him more as a big brother of sorts#luke. thalia and annabeth became like a family together. which is why it hurt so much more when he betrayed them#noodle liveblogs pjo

Just finished the trials of Apollo and I NEED TO TALK ABOUT IT
These books were so different to me because they directly revolved around a topic Rick clearly wanted to touch - abuse. Specifically, familial abuse. Personally I think he’d done it gracefully in a way that really sinks in for me now, but I’m not a victim of abuse and don’t pretend to understand the subject.
Regardless, I think the way Rick wrote Apollo, Lester, was absolute perfection. There’s an art to writing a literal god in first person perspective, and have him be one of the most human characters in the entire franchise.
Lester STRUGGLES. And he’s not perfect at all, he doesn’t even begin to understand everything at the start - not the world, not consequences, not the stakes and not the people around him. But fuck he learns, he learns the hard way, the only way, by doing. And it’s not a linear journey either - between book 1 and his more or less lucid identity in book 5, he goes back and forth between learning, and relapsing to his old ways, and learning again, and trusting and understand and rising victorious in all the confusion. He doesn’t shy away from his emotions - he cries a lot, and gets frustrated, and laughs. He learns to feel for other people. But he also learns to heal himself. And he does it by helping others heal, too.
To me, this red thread tying the books together by a common serious subject, made the reading somehow more whole. I can’t explain it, but Apollo slowly verbalising (well, thinking), realising there are similarities between his relationship with Zeus to Meg’s relationship with Nero, was so satisfying. Although I feel like “satisfying” might be a bit of a harsh word. Mostly I felt proud of him. I /felt/ for him, so very much, for so long. He’s likeable because he’s so human, and that includes both his silly and tragic sides, because these coexist within all of us. And I think he as a character encompassed that beautifully.
Reading that last book, expecting a showdown of sorts between Apollo and his father, and receiving a short conversation, an understanding, instead, was amazing. Because that’s Rick’s way of showing us what’s important. No use trying to fix what we can’t, what isn’t our responsibility to fix, what makes us miserable. Humans have this natural ability to rise from their own disasters and forge out of them their own paths in life. And Apollo did just that. It took him time, but that’s how it goes for all of us. And instead of fighting Zeus, he chose happiness. He chose focusing on what’s important, his old hobbies, his friends.
In a way, I’m bittersweet- I wish he didn’t have to stay at Olympus. I wish he could spend as much time as he’d like on earth. But the thing is, a god is what he /is/. But now, he understands for the first time that he gets to pick what kind of god he should be.
And he chose the human kind.
#I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I FUCKING LOVE HIM#STRAIGHT UP IN MY TOP 3 WITH PERCY AND ANNABETH#this little rant hardly even scratches the surface of the feeling I have#I’ve only just finished reading the tower of Nero#for some reason I put it off for two years but finally here we are#whatever Rick put in this character#it fucking WORKED#the joy this little loser brings me is actually insane#his development is perfect#but again#I don’t mean that just in the “’becoming less of an asshole’ way#he also learns to deal with his own set of traumas#his pain and fear and guilt#and he does that by BEING HUMAN AMONGST HUMANS#which (surprise!) I am too! and so are you!#and it hits because like. he’s there for me#he said it himself#and I think he’s right I can feel it#I love you little buddy#I hope you’re well#the trials of apollo#trials of apollo#apollo#lester papadopoulos#percy jackon and the olympians#the heroes of olympus#pjo apollo#pjo#toa#riordanverse

Listen I have a lot of issues with 600 strikes but odysseus should have kept posideon's trident
#epic the musical#Odysseus#posideon#Ignoring the fact that no mortal man would be able to beat up posiden like that#(I've started to take a more percy jackson mindset than the odyssey mindset which has helped a lot)#The second half of 600 strikes slaps#I love the fact that odysseus is clearly working out his issues on posideon#“You didn't stop when I begged you” to CALYPSO'S theme?!!! Absolutely insane going feral over that#But like he'd need proof that he beat posideons ass and having his trident is PERFECT for that#And like he's already going to be cursed forever because of the (checks notes) torture humiliation blinding his son ect.#Might as well full send it and take the trident as a trophy too#Also!!! Imagine how kickass it would be if odysseus rocked up to his home after 20 years covered in ichor and the trident#(Imagine the suitors reactions. They'd be so so scared)#(Imagine how hot penelope would find it)#And much later odysseus rocking up to athenas temple : heyyy sis you want this? *slams trident onto alter*#Athena: .....where and how the fuck do you have that ?!#Odysseus: do you want it or not I know you and posiden have been beafing since the dawn of time#Odysseus: imagine how funny his face would be if you showed up at the next Olympian gods meeting with this over your shoulders#Athena:....fuck you're right it WOULD be funny

it’s the way that john’s father’s death and its aftermath profoundly altered john’s perception of love and loss but he still fell in love with hector anyway and hector’s death just cemented that perception but he still fell in love with jamie anyway and jamie’s rejection just drove him further away from the idea of being loved back but he still fell in love with percy anyway and THAT fucked him up so badly that after percy there was no one else.
#percy’s betrayal was IT for him he was DONE never loved again 😭#and the same for percy i doubt he ever loved someone like he loved john#they fucked each other up so badly skanakskakdns i love them#betrayal - you know my thoughts on the situation but john felt betrayed#outlander#lord john series#lord john grey#john grey#hector dalrymple#jamie fraser#percy wainwright#percy beauchamp#john x percy

The himbo, malewife, goofball -fication of percy jackson is such a crime by both the fans and riordan. It has made Mr not like percabeth as a couple because in all posts and in later books annabeth is such a girlboss, while Percy's dumb and can't fight his way out of a paperbag without her. All the posts are about how annabeth will be an architect and percy would love to be a trophy husband.
Even the humor in the books went from Percy's sharp wit and snark to 'my pancakes can't drown because I'm a son of poseidon.'
And now this recommendation letter bullshit.
Honestly now I'd wish percy just separated from annabeth (but they remain best friends.) He stays home with his family, becomes a camp counselor, helps young demigods, holds God's accountable and eventually becomes a social activist. (I also dislike him doing something marine biology related. It's clear he hates academics but he always wants to help people. Him helping demigods and mortals is such a wholesome profession for him.)
I fully agree with the first half of this, though I slightly disagree with part of the latter.
The later-series and fanon mischaracterization of Percy is at least a solid 50% ableism minimum, full stop. He's being warped into a very stereotyped ADHD character and the exact reason why he's being characterized as "dumb" is because of ableism. Percy is a very intelligent character! That's exactly why he's so in sync with Annabeth and they're such a strong duo! It's just generally Annabeth is more book/academically smart.
I disagree with where you say he hates academics - because that's one of the common misconceptions about his character. Percy doesn't hate learning or academic subjects! He's not even bad at them! We know explicitly that when he is in an accommodating environment he is interested in learning and gets significantly better grades! Percy only dislikes school because it is generally an environment that systematically he struggles with. It's literally just he has a learning disability (two, actually)! That's it! When his learning disability is accommodated for he does well! It's almost like that's what accommodations are all about! We know this from the first series! It's discussed pretty in-depth! Percy isn't a dumb character and he doesn't hate learning, he's just been let down by school systems so much that he's inherently distrustful of them. If they actually accommodate him though then he does just fine!
And that's exactly what CHB was all about and why New Rome University was supposed to be such a big thing for him! CHB is a learning environment geared for demigods. NRU is a demigod college. Both inherently imply an environment meant to cater to and accommodate students with ADHD and dyslexia! They are both systematically structured to be able to accommodate him! Heck, CHB and CJ even both address in the wider themes of the series a metaphor about how ADHD and dyslexia are commonly seen as childhood disabilities, and how it can be more difficult to find accommodations into adulthood because of that attitude but those disabilities don't just go away - that's why CHB is a summer camp but they talk about how demigods outside of CHB don't often fare well. The metaphor there is those who are not getting help or accommodations are struggling. Because that's how that works! This is a fully intentional metaphor from the first series! CHB is never framed as being perfect for demigods, because one of the entire central conflicts of the series is Percy and Luke going back and forth about this flawed system meant to help and support them but still letting people fall through the cracks. The "claim your kids by 13" thing is a metaphor about how acknowledging a child's disabilities (and possibly getting a diagnosis) earlier/as early as possible means they will have more time to learn and build up resources and support for themselves to be able to use later in life. One of CHB's major flaws is that it can accommodate demigods to a certain point, but it can only do so much before those demigods have to leave (the metaphor being accommodating school systems when those disabled students do not have any other forms of accommodations in their lives.)
And that's why Camp Jupiter was framed as being so revolutionary for Percy because it had an environment acknowledging that this is not just a childhood disability, adults with ADHD/dyslexia exist too and still need and deserve accommodations, AND is a place where those accommodations are available. That's why Camp Jupiter and NRU are treated as such special and important things to Percy, because it's essentially Percy being shown this type of thing can and does exist and it is available to him. It is an option he never thought was possible. Percy never thought he'd be able to go to college because he would not be able to go through school without accommodations, but NRU proves otherwise.
The part that's absolutely stupid is Rick then proceeded to retcon NRU so that apparently it's not a full college and Percy still has to take classes at normal mortal college which DEFEATS THE ENTIRE PURPOSE OF NRU EXISTING. Rick has fully retconned that demigods struggle past the ages of 16-18 when they're on their own (see above elaborated metaphors) and in doing so we have fully killed all symbolism in literally all of that. It's so stupid. And by having the plot of the CoTG trilogy entirely be that Percy is not actually allowed access to NRU in the first place because he is a son of Poseidon and has to do extra to even be accepted is stupid!
All that to say, I agree the marine biology feels like a huge cop-out and a disservice to his character by reducing him to just a son of Poseidon. The literal only reason why it's the default option people take for him is because oh, fish thing, fish guy. But I feel like everyone ignores the really obvious answer for what Percy would want to do which is - writing. Both his parents are writers/authors and he clearly admires that about them. Percy likes telling stories! He canonically is already a published author in-universe! That's what the books ARE in-universe! The first series fully exists in their universe and Percy is the author! This is explicit canonical information! Percy canonically has help physically writing it down (accommodations) but he is still the credited author! Percy is a writer! Already! Canonically! Why are we making him a marine biologist he already has a profession that ties into his character significantly more. Like you said, Percy likes helping people. That's what the books in-universe are supposed to be for! It's point blank at the beginning of the series! Book one! The thing everybody quotes all the time! The books exist because it is Percy trying to give advice to other demigods who don't know what's going on yet! It's Percy's writing down his experiences to help new demigods understand and contextualize their experiences so they can understand themselves better and figure out what's going on - WHICH IN ITSELF IS ALSO A METAPHOR ABOUT ADHD/DYSLEXIA! Because the core of the series has and always will be built around ADHD/dyslexia! Percy as a protagonist EXPLICITLY was created so that ADHD/dyslexic kids could see themselves as a hero!
Sorry that all was a very tangential rant but my point being: Absolutely. Percy in newer stuff in the franchise and in fanon is horrifically mischaracterized in ways that are functionally either fully ableist (shoutout TSATS for just outright claiming Percy is intentionally lazy and skips school out of disinterest, which is like the number one ableist attitude towards kids with learning disabilities) or a complete erasure of Percy's disabilities. Also I think he should be a writing major not a marine biologist.
#pjo#percy jackson#riordanverse#rr crit#cotg#meta#analysis#chalice of the gods#adhd#dyslexia#disability#Anonymous#ask#long post //#i do agree with the ''Percy continues to hold the gods accountable'' thing because that too is a metaphor for adhd/dyslexia#more re: accommodating systems and making sure demigods (disabled kids) are getting the support they need#functionally it's equivalent to Percy doing that thing where you have to nag whoever's in charge of ADA stuff to actually do their job#it's the rant i always go on: you cannot remove the disability themes from PJO or else it is no longer PJO and you ruin everything#you cannot divorce Percy's character from being disabled/having ADHD and dyslexia/PTSD/etc#it is the core of his character and the entire plotline and arc he navigates in the first series#disability is the foundational core of the franchise and if you fuck that up you have literally lost the plot and need to revise#i actually really genuinely love the layers of disability themes and metaphors in the first series and thats why its my favorite#because every other subsequent main series loses that#the other series arent as much about disability - they have different focal themes - so they get a pass there#though they do way better to holding on to their focal themes more than like HoO or TOA does by LEAGUES#anyways i didnt proofread this cause its early so forgive any errors or nonsense i was just ramblin'

Just watched the newest Percy Jackson ep and I genuinely liked the way they did the Medusa part and how they’re handling Grover
#Grover my boy#grover underwood#grover#grover pjo#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo#pjo tv series#pjo disney+#semispoilers starting here#like yes he’s fucking tired of these two arguing all the time! he gets to be pissed that they won’t get along!#the consensus song my beloved#I like that we get an actual reaction to his uncle ferdinand being dead cuz like yeah that shit would hurt#the fury (no clue how to spell her name) and medusa each giving annabeth and percy an offer and them denying it was actually a really good#addition in my opinion like it really solidifies their loyalty to not only the quest but to each other#they had the option to get what they truly wanted and they said no and I really liked that#medusa was so pretty and I love how she’s truly our first introduction to the bad side of the gods outside of how percy feels about his dad#also!!! the k on the sneakers!!!!!! luke!!!!!!!!!!#as funny as gabe saying the prophecy was I would’ve liked to hear the oracle say it#I had kinda built up the scene and hearing the raspy dead voice of the oracle say the prophecy would’ve have made an amazing scene#and using gabe for more of a comedic tone kinda dampened the scene for me#but it looked phenomenal and I really can’t wait to see how they do the prophecys in the second and third books#I wanna know who would appear for clarisse and the hunters#I think ares showing up for clarisse and artemis showing up for the hunters would be really interesting#so setting up the whole ‘a different person shows up for everyone’ should be cool#I just can’t get over how it was gabe#i would’ve liked to see that scene but it’s sally or poseidon saying the prophecy for extra impact#I’ll stop nitpicking now it was a really good episode#autism (mads) speaks

Theres a weird trait on ao3 where people will force a Percabeth breakup too ship Percy w their person if choice but they always have the most stupid reasons known to mankind
No Annabeth would NEVER break up with Percy she loves that boy just as much as she loves him and no she wouldn’t break up with him because she’s “ scared of him ” 😭 she literally loves that man and knows him like the back of her hand they were each other’s support systems in and outside of Tartarus
Yes RR didn’t put as much focus on them healing through that trauma together and moving on together but it’s pretty heavily implied in COTG and if anything them falling in too that Hellpit strengthened their love for eachother
Actually no Annabeth wasn’t even scared of him she was scared of what Tartarus was turning him into she’s not “ ungrateful ” because she asked him too please stop torturing a woman that’s not selfish of her she’s literally in the worst place on earth and doesn’t want him to become something he regrets 😭
And she clearly understands because they are still extremely close and she never mentions it again like come on she isn’t breaking up with him because she’s “ intimidated ” like
#pjo#percabeth#this is pointed at THOSE apollo/percy shippers#and if they bring up the judo flip I roll my eyes so fucking hard#“ the roles were reversed ” I still probably wouldn’t care so now what seeing as Percy clearly didn’t give 2 shits#because 1. he knows her and that this is because she has abandonment issues and doesn’t know how to express love that well#2. hes very capable and stronger than her and that clearly didn’t hurt like at all

thinking about social worker percy again
#ppl who seriously believe hes gonna be a marine biologist. do you even fundamentally understand percy as a character#like yeah hes the son of poseidon he can talk to sea creatures but guys. thats not enough to make someone passionate abt something#and guys. the amount of math and science that goes into that??? i love percy and hes boy stupid but he is also not doing all that#*not stupid <3#teacher percy is like. its fine but i dont agree with it i dont think he would have the patience or want to do something like that#but social work. with the way he grew up (and we love sally we know she was with gabe to protect him) and what he saw at the hands of the#gods not bothering to give a shit abt their kids and how he still felt unwanted by his dad and how he turned down godhood and instead asked#for the gods to give a shit abt their kids and stop making them feel so unwanted bc he knows how that feels and it fucking sucks#and i know damn well percy never wants to see another kid experience what he did. and hes great with kids ;#*(estelle for example obviously but he was also good with nico who had it worse than him)#and i know in my soul that this is what he would do#and everyone else is wrong bc i know him better than anyone else#r.txt

Needing to go to bed vs wanting to write hockey AU. Who will win.
(Bed. Dear god let it be bed……)
#chapter two is coming along sooooo well Nico said something homophobic and Jack said ‘no the fuck you wont in my (Percy’s) house’#nico is so silly. he’s so dumb. he will say something homophobic and then immediately come out as gay to the first person mad at him about i#I love making him so conflicted#sometimes he’s fine with it he’s accepted he’s gay and that he can exist in the NHL#other times he hates Jack and Percy for being out because they’re not even gay they don’t KNOW his struggle because they can at least PASS#and even more times he just acts like none of it exists because if it doesn’t exist it can’t hurt him#Nico was trying to come out to Jason but Jason beat him to it#pjo#jason grace#hoo#nico di angelo#jasico#I think most of the time Nico is okay with himself. but when he’s surrounded by his teammates he gets scared because of how his teams have#treated him in the past#so it’s a kind of trauma response for him to get spooked when someone makes a joking comment in passing#even if it’s a positive comment towards gay people he flips his shit#he’s just grown up getting so much shit for it that his defense mechanism around other hockey players is deny deny deny#they can CALL him whatever they want but as long as they never say anything past that#god this story became so much more fun when I gave Nico inner conflict
