More pjo/hoo headcanons

Apollo kids exclusively work out with musics as a cabin, but they always argue about the playlist that should be chosen. Will uses councillor privilege to force them to pick country.

The Athena cabin has a projector for sure

Also, they have youtube premium because of lofi music

Apollo kids have been banned from using guns in training with others (they recreated the ten duel commandments from Hamilton and actually ended up shooting without missing the target. Now, they can only shoot on regular targets, not living ones)

Hephaestus and Athena kids are a living proof of the "an architect's dream is an engineer's nightmare" thing

There is definitely an Athena kid out there that hates math with a burning passion. Their mom isn't very happy about that.

Despite their rivalry, many Apollo kids have Ares cabin bffs - after all, they spend lots of time in the infirmary

Ares kids usually have a great relationship with their father - he is surprisingly encouraging and supportive

Will can definitely ride a horse and you can't convince me otherwise

Also. His mom has a yellow pickup truck with tons of stickers and a guitar on the backseat

Sally refused to use the subway ever since Percy was born (you know how the underground always smells like monsters and that's why Grover didn't notice the chimera? That was exactly why)

Percy used to cry in the seafood section of stores, especially if it had anything living there

Athena kids can achieve Eminem speed during debate, I will not elaborate any further

Oh also. They're not straight As kids, or at least not all of them, especially the older ones. I mean, the school system vs learning disorders? There's no way they're winning that fight entirely. They probably have the subjects they like and ace, and then the subject that are just there, and since they're not failing, they don't really care (yes this is about me getting a C from physics again, I hate physics)

Annabeth loves the "further is for physical distance, farther for metaphorical and father for emotional" tumblr post

Hera's cabin has a family portrait of the olympians, it's quite a bittersweet sight

Let Demeter kids have a scythe as their weapon of choice pls

Athena kids make so many lame nerd puns. Occasionally, a Hephaestus kid or a secret nerd will laugh.

Athena kids are definitely the type to fight the teacher about their grade. They will gather evidence that their answer is technically correct and either impress or annoy the teacher so much they will actually change their grade

All Athena kids have a resting bitch face (just like Hermes kids have a face that says they're troublemakers)

Hermes kids are naturally skilled at orientation on a map and in terrain

Hephaestus and Hermes cabin have once held a lock-picking competition (based on speed but also the amount of damage caused)

Every single person in the Athena cabin has seen both Dead Poets Society and School of Rock (and loved it)

For an absolutely nonexistent reason I think the Aphrodite cabin has some pro tip for washing blood out of clothes and stuff

Very stereotypical of me but in the Ares cabin, the strongest is the leader and their word is law, if you disagree, you gotta participate in a one on one fight of choice (it doesn't matter that much if you win, at least you still prove your bravery and the courage to stand up for what you believe in). Meanwhile, the Athena cabin votes on everything. And yes, they are proud of it. And yes, they have senate level debates where everyone uses whatever dirt they have on the others to win (because they probably know too much gossip without even really intending to) sometimes. Only sometimes.

Also. They have ostrakism which is basically a thing where you break a pot/vase/something, each person gets a piece and carves on the name of someone who is endangering democracy in their option. The person with the most votes gets chased out I think. Athena kids have changed up that part, they simply ban that person from voting for 6 months.

Athena kids with learning disorders. That's all I want to say.

Mentioning my previous 'Athena cabin has a Pallas cat' headcanon

Also Athena kids are the people who will point out historical stuff behind the names of places or companies (example: my country has a shopping centre called palladium, i instill the lore of the original palladium on anyone unfortunate enough to be there with me)

Apollo kids personalise their instruments - stickers, paint, carved initials, cool straps and other accessories, you name it!

They also have a whole row of those instrument hangers, yk what i mean?

we all know and love the "Athena children have severe arachnophobia" but you know what we don't think about Enough? " Apollo children have severe ophidiophonia (yes I looked it up[yes it's the fear of snakes]), like I think it could be such a good trope and so underrated

[f0xgl0v3]

Athena kids but their power is the like,

(I couldn’t think of any other show than the Good doctor that uses this trope I’m sorry-)

Y’know?

[silentstudiosyt]

I feel like Athena kids would have photographic memory. They'll read a book once and have it completely memorized, and yes they know exactly where they put that pen down even though it's been like 2 weeks.

Imagine they have some sort of quest in a museum or something and the thing that tells them what they need to do was on one of those info graphs and they didn't realize till it was too late, but worry not for Annabeth did a quick read through and has the entire thing memorised.

Cabin 6 // Athena

[sleep-deprived-night-owl]

Athena kids I'd like to see:

- a hyper focused Athena kid with a fixation on olive trees -> they are often mistaken for a Demeter kid

- a prankster who comes up with the most clever ideas to prank other people. The Hermes kids love them and often recruit their help with ideas/planning. This Athena kid would also be clever enough to charge money for their services... It can and will become a whole business

- An Athena kid with a huge love for weaving. Some kids might tease them and tell them they're better than their mom. The kid will immediately shut them down and tell them they do not need Arachne 2.0

**in general Athena kids who are just kids. They may be super smart and clever, but that doesn't take away they are children with ADHD and/or dyslexia**

[lilislegacy]

Athena kids having a strong control over their minds managing their own memories resistant to mind control, projecting memories and info to others..

oooh, love this. yes. athena kids definitely have a lot going on up there, and they would need to be good at managing it.

i don’t know if anyone here has seen sherlock, with benedict cumberbatch, but for some reason i’m just imagining sherlock’s mind palace 😂

[ganeshpnf]

Malcolm Pace moodboard! I couldn't stop myself :) His characterization is mostly from my and @sleep-deprived-night-owl 's stories about the Athena kids :) I love his character and wish we get to see him more.

[sweetnnaivete]

athena kids and hephaestus kids would be an unstoppable force

I seriously don't understand why there are absolutely no fanfics about Athena's other children. Cabin Six dynamics have always been so fascinating to me. The jealousy, the comparison, the imposter syndrome, the gratitude, the abandonment issues.

If anyone wants to read about Athena's other kids, look up You're on your own kid on ao3 by Cersei_Mikaelson.

Low key, I think some of Annabeth's siblings probably envied her in the original series because she was so clearly their mother's favorite. She didn't speak to their mom often- though possibly still more than they had- but she got the glory , the quests, etc.

By the end of the second war, after Arachne and Tartarus, whatever siblings she has left alive don't envy her their mother's attention any more. If anything, Annabeth herself has become Cabin 6's aegis, with all the gratitude and guilt that comes with it.

Which could mean nothing… 🤷🏻‍♂️🙃

[toubledrouble]

I might be insane but my mind is plagued by wild athena kid powers so here we go

ATHENA KID POWERS:

Mind reading??? For some reason. Bc. Yeah, brain stuff.

Growing olive trees and olive trees only

A dash of electrokinesis bc Athena can wield Zeus' lightning (imagine how epic would that make Jason/Thalia and Annabeth as a duo in a fight)

Something with messing with human lifeforms (and human only) bc Athena was the one to breathe life into the first humans methinks

Ability to speak to Athena's sacred animals. Maybe even summon them for help, who knows.

These could be like charmspeak for aphrodite kids where it's rare/not everyone has every one, but I would really love to either make them that op or to give every kid at least one of these. That's all, thanks for dealing with me xd

[lyculuscaelus]

I will never get over the fact that Athena’s first line in We’ll Be Fine is “I had a friend before, and he was a lot like you” instead of “you are a lot like him”. It’s almost like Athena is treating Odysseus as the “loving father of Telemachus” instead of Telemachus as merely “the son of Odysseus”. I AM NOT OKAY

[fisherrprince]

I’ve been possessed. If anyone wants to know where Edgeworth is, he’s been watching kamen yaiba with the detective boys for 4 hours

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.
