#Still love og Percico

[silvermistyy]

It may just be the sapphic in me but I tend to gender bend all my non-fem ships into women a lot; like Percy and Nico?

U mean Percy “tiny top big pants skater gf” Jackson and Nico “5’1” tiny titty goth gf” di Angelo? Yes I love them <333

3 Ships

Cauthor (Rand al'Thor/Mat Cauthon): The OG. The template. The pairing that wormed it's way deep into my brain and never left. My first and oldest fandom love and the one I always return to, given sufficient time. I've actually been thinking more and more about picking up Sworn, by Warder Mat AU, because I've missed these two so strongly.

Merthur (Merlin/Arthur Pendragon): Another OG, though in a slightly different way. Man this ship still hits so good: the tragedy, the devotion, the earth shaking bone deep love. Doomed by the narrative a decade before that became a kitchy tumblr phrase, and still going strong today for a reason. The make me chew drywall I love them so much.

Matador (Adam Taurus/Jaune Arc): A recent discovery but one I can not get out of my brain. I acknowledge this is 100% a crack ship and yet...sometimes the potentially for something really messed up and really interesting exists between two characters who never share a scene, and sometimes that potential is so powerful it gives me brainworms. Their is probably fic forthcoming for this one, fair warning.

First Ship

My best guess is Percico (Nico Di Angelo/Percy Jackson), weather that was me picking up on intended tension from Rioradn or me as a macabre outcast gay middle schooler projecting onto Nico I can't properly say, but I used to really like this one. Less so these days. Still, I would read an AU of them it turned up in my recommended pile.

Last Song

Spotify says it's Mermaids by Florence and the Machine, which seems right

Currently reading

The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan, though in fairness I'm listening to it in audiobook form.

After the Fall by EC Myers

I also JUST finished re-reading In Other Lands by Sarah Reese Brennan for my book club and man is that a good book.

Currently Consuming

Potato Wedges I made in my air fryer

Currently Craving

Cherry Ice Cream, specifically the Amerato Cherry Cordial Ice Cream from my local Kroger that rules. I would also kill for a Yellow Cake Batter Shake from Sonic, but it has yet to return from QSR Purgatory.

Do you know fanfics where forces try to keep percy and nico apart (like the gods, the fates ...etc) but ofc nothing can beat their love 💗 cheesy I know 😜 thank youuuu in advance

So, here's the thing. I have the most amazing, most perfect fanfic for this request... but it's in Spanish... I'll link it at the end if you want to read it with the help of a translator, because it is that good.

Other: This is an angsty story with an unhappy ending, but it technically has their love be unbeatable. It's a fascinating, though slightly depressing read. As a warning, it has cheating and threats of sexual assault, so be wary of that.

It Comes in Waves, I Close my Eyes: God Percy and Child of the Prophecy Nico are in love, but their very natures mean they can't be together. They both still want to, though. Sequel to Cause we both have the fear, fear of being alone, which shows how Percy and Nico first met.

Love's Design: Nico is sent back in time by Aphrodite to teach him a lesson. Here the force driving them apart is... Nico himself, as he doesn't want to mess up the timeline, but Aphrodite is also an antagonist.

And finally, there's Mnemósine, a fic in Spanish all about the gods being so scared of Percy and Nico getting together through the ages that they force their romance to always end in failure. They always come back, though, even when they are supposed to run out of reincarnations. The main story takes place with future incarnations of Percy and Nico in China, but the OG versions of them make appeareances, as well as ancient Greek, Roman, Elizabethan England and 1830s France versions. A fantastic read and the best Spanish Percico fic I've ever read.
