#and I was in Hermes cabin

[itsprobablydean]

Oh fuck, the Apollo kids have found me.

YOU GUYS BETTER LEAVE ME ALONE ABOUT THE ARCHERY THING!!

[oifaaa]

Fun new game I'm playing while watching the new Percy Jackson show called "Was this actually different in the books or is my memory just shit"

[givemewallywestorgivemedeath]

The funny thing about the PJO cabin system is that everyone's always all 'oh the twelve' this and 'the twelve' that but that's absolutely not even remotely accurate. To start, right off the bat it's thirteen, not twelve, because they don't count Hades. But not really because before Percy, there were no big three kids, so we're down to ten active cabins already but it's actually eight because Artemis and Hera don't make demigods.

And of those eight, Mr. D is stuck at camp (thus not really making new demigods all that often) and his only two kids don't even sleep in a cabin, they sleep in the Big House with him.

So, pre-Percy, there are seven active cabins at Camp Half-Blood:

Glee club, the Jocks, the Nerds, the Geeks, the Farmers, the 'Sketchy Kids' and the Popular Kids.

Or, in other words, the Apollo, Ares, Athena, Hephaestus, Demeter, Hermes (and the unclaimed kids) and Aphrodite cabins.

What's cool is that you can already see the cabin dynamics in the show. For example, the Athena cabin allies with the Hermes cabin for the numbers. The Hermes kids plus all the unclaimed kids? It's the biggest cabin in the camp by far. It's a battle strategy. Luke and Annabeth's close relationship is just the cherry on top for Annabeth. It'll be really cool to see how the show develops the differences in the cabins during the series.

actually i think hermes kids should be able to shadow travel too because of hermes being a cthonic deity + the god of travellers and we were so robbed of this. imagine how powerful kronos would have been in the body of a demigod who can literally teleport. imagine how chaotic would the stolls have been Sooo robbed

Reasons I'd get kicked out of Camp Half-Blood

1- telling Chiron to "stay gold, Ponyboy"

2- belting the chorus of "sweet home Alabama" every time I see a couple in the camp

3- making your mom jokes to Athena and Aphrodite kids

4- randomly spraying Percy with a squirt gun to check if he's really water resistant, even when he's not expecting to be in contact with water

5- approaching random campers and reminding them who their half-siblings are (ex: "yo, Nico, did you know you're related to Hitler?)

6- hiding a noise machine in the Hermes cabin and playing the star Wars scene "Luke, I am your father" every time he eneters/ making it play Hamilton at all hours of the night, so we can fall asleep to the sound of our father's voice

7- telling kids to "read between the lines", knowing full well they can't even read the lines themselves

8- convincing the younger, more gullible Demeter kids to grow weed

9- bribing the Hephaestus kids into making me a gun that shoots celestial bronze bullets, because there is no way in Hades that I am about to go after monsters just wielding some pointy sticks

10- sneaking into the Hera cabin to sleep, because what do you MEAN I, a claimed daughter of Hermes, don't get a bed in my own daddy's house? Yeah, no, I'm staying over at grandma's, the goddess of motherhood. Smite me.

[valewritessss]

The Stoll brothers just suddenly got the responsibility of being head councilors after their older brother betrayed the entire camp and yet they’re “just comedic relief”

[moodyseal]

No other god has taken as many Ls as the twins have in the entirety of the Riordanverse

[t0p-1-sidecharacter--fan]

hc that most of the love interests of the Hermes Cabin used to be their enemy/frenemy

[batcavescolony]

If I was Chris Rodriguez you'd have to sedate me every time camp went on a little trip to Olympus. He is obviously a Hermes kid, but he never actually got claimed by Hermes. If I had to go to Olympus and seem him acting like nothing is wrong I'd get killed for impertinence. I'm swinging at a God consequences be damned.

APOLLO CHILDREN RECOGNIZE THEIR UNCLE

(⭐️ALeXaNDeR HamiLtON⭐️)

(I’m a child of Apollo so I am here)

The Apollo children got granted permission to see Hamilton. The only reason they were able to was because Chiron said it was because it had “Educational purposes, blah, blah, blah.”

But whatever, it didn’t matter. We were all ecstatic, especially me and the other campers who hadn’t ever seen it before.

Apollo came to camp, arriving in the sun chariot. We all were also happy about not having to wear the camp t-shirt.

He drove us to the theater we would be seeing it live in. We honestly couldn’t shut up about it on the way there, we we’re probably annoying, but dad didn’t seem to think so.

Arriving, we all get out and into the theatre. And I promise, we were trying really hard to shut up.

The performance begins

And wait wtf

unable to keep our mouths shut, we yell,

“UNCLE HERMES?!”

It was Hermes-

Hermes was playing fucking Alexander Hamilton

And we lost our shit

[ever8ea]

Y’all free my man Luke Castellan he didn’t do anything wrong fr

(I could fix him)

[spiralingemptyness]

*apollo cabin in chaos* Lee: be forced to be the counselor of the second largest cabin at a demi god camp, it’s definitely not fun but your gonna have to do it anyway-

Michael: hey Lee… what if I said that Will is stuck in the rafters, and Kayla is planning on blowing something up with the Stolls-

Lee: THAT’S IT! Next person to do something stupid is going to be on chore duty for two weeks and have their blackmail, that I got from Luke and the Stolls, in front of everyone in this entire camp to see, and if you don’t believe me, I can just give you a tiny demonstration right now…. Now any questions or comments

*apollo cabin in silence*

Lee: good, now someone get Will down from the rafters, if you need me I’m going to be in the infirmary or the range

Michael: wait Lee, how did you get the Hermes cabin to give you blackmail

Lee: simple, for the Stolls, I threaten to tell Luke if I catch them doing anything I know he won’t approve of, the other blackmail, well, the Luke has to get his sources from somewhere

Michael: TRAITOR

epilogue:

Lee: did you know that Kayla was going to commit arson with the Stolls

Luke: commit arson, no, they wouldn’t be able to do that, but I know they were planning on remodeling the Ares cabin…. Again, I’m fine with that.

Lee: what do you mean ‘they wouldn’t be able to do that’

Luke: I already confiscated their ‘pyro supplies’, borrowed some supplies from the Hephaestus cabin to make a more.. fiery prank. It’s a welcome gift for tomorrow, when the Hunters come to visit, and a definite guarantee to give Zoe an aneurysm

Lee: you are worse than the Stolls… which makes this so much better, also how dare you not include me at getting back at the Hunters..

Nico who actually stays at Camp and grows up in the Hermes Cabin.

He's quick like them, good at gambling, good at making up stories, good at tricking others, even good at stealing, but they can still tell he's different, they figure if he truly were a son of Hermes he would have been claimed by now, maybe

Then they see him in actual combat, how the temperature grows cold around him, how he's so quick it's almost like he's disappearing and re appearing into the sites he's running towards, how the shades cling to him.

They see him almost instinctually knowing when one of their friends is about to die, they see him always being there.

Like he's catching them.

That does give people like Annabeth an idea of who's son he could actually be, but that's supposed to be impossible right, there's not meant to be any more children of the big three, much less of a God like Hades.

And the Hermes Cabin does genuinely like him, and as much as they fight, and can't stand each other sometimes, they all do like each other.

Nico has been living there for so long he wouldn't really wanna leave it either, so eventually they all decide his father must be Hermes for sure, but not Hermes as they know him.

And so, Nico becomes known as the only son of Chthonic Hermes.
