WELP it’s become unavoidable

how about a Riordanverse one because the new episode came out yesterday

so every country has a Jaegar unit, you know? America’s is the biggest, then Japan, and then idk from there but you get the point

welp. Greece

they have twelve total, each named after a Greek Mythology deity, and the unit is called the Pantheon

the leader of the unit, Zeus, is piloted by siblings Jason and Thalia Grace. it’s technically… the second biggest, but they’ll deny the extra three and a half feet Poseidon has on them til the day they die

Poseidon is second-in-command and piloted by husband and wife Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase. it’s got a bigass trident and water canons. one time they shoved Ares right into the Mediterranean because of a petty argument😇

Hades…… technically is also taller than Zeus. but the pilots tend to be quiet, so who would know that? Nico di Angelo lost his sister and copilot in battle, but her replacement, Hazel Levesque, is quite lovely and they get along great. it’s pitch black and carries a scythe like some kind of grim reaper

Demeter, often sent as a guard on diplomatic missions. she’s piloted by half sisters Katie and Miranda Gardner

Ares. the ‘war god.’ piloted by Clarisse LaRue, who managed to win a fight on her own after her copilot and boyfriend, Chris Rodriguez, was knocked out. she lasted four minutes solo-piloting and kicked a very large kaiju’s ass

Athena was piloted by Annabeth Chase in her rookie days, before Poseidon was officially commissioned. now it’s run by Malcolm Pace. she’s a solo rig, but big enough to be pushing the label. she makes up for it in agility

Apollo has the longest range accurate projectile weapons out of all of them except for its design’s twin, Artemis. fun fact about the ‘twins’— they both used to be double-pilot, but in back to back battles, each lost a pilot. as they were being rebuilt, they were modified to be solo. Apollo is run by Austin Knowles and previously Michael Yew (deceased), and Artemis is run by Reyna Avila Ramirez-Arellano and previously Zoë Nightshade (deceased)

Hephaestus was actually made to be piloted remotely. back at home base (fittingly named Olympus), there is a small group of engineers that cycles through battles. Leo Valdez (married to Jason Grace and the head of Jaegar engineering), Nyssa Barrera (lead mechanic at Olympus) and Harley Barrera (young but very bright; passed initiation in half the registered time). anyways Hephaestus has a giant hammer and its arms turn into flamethrowers (:

Aphrodite is piloted by wives Piper and Shel McLean— fitting for her namesake, the goddess of love. she’s not built for stealth, as she is bright pink, but hey. she has knives and sonar weapons; what more could you want

Hermes was once piloted by Luke Castellan and Travis Stoll— one dead, the other retired. it is now run by Cecil Markowitz and Ellis Wakefield (partners)

Dionysus is small enough to be piloted solo, and it is, by Pollux. no first or last. he says relationships are for the weak (and he’s kidding………. probably)

now the techies at the command center are referred to as Hera, as they’re the other pillar of the Pantheon’s function

Olympus is in charge of protecting Greece and the whole Mediterranean, so they have to get places fast

the Big 3 each have a special way of transportation— Zeus has high-precision thrusters so it can fly, Poseidon can literally walk across the bottom of the ocean and is completely waterproof, and Hades can “teleport” with shadow travel tech within dark spaces and has advanced camouflage as well

between the three of them, they can pretty much get everyone where they need to be

during the time period where Annabeth still piloted Athena and Percy was in training, he trained a lot with his best friend Grover— they were highly drift compatible and kicked ass in the simulator. they have ghost drift tho, which is sometimes inconvenient during missions when they’re in two completely different places, but they think it’s funny otherwise

back at Olympus, Will Solace is the head medic. somehow Nico ends up in his office a lot. the others are starting to get suspicious. I’m sure it’s fine🥰

Connor Stoll was in the cadet program and went through all the training with his older brother, even piloted Hermes once, but he didn’t like the feeling of someone in his head. not even Travis. so……. he ditched and decided stealing decommissioned Jaegar parts was a better use of his time. not even to build his own, just cause he’s an adrenaline junkie. when his bf is sent to arrest him there’s an interesting conversation that has to happen there

the cadet program for Olympus is also funny because there’s just so many people to train them?? so there’s different classes and shit built into their schedules and Athena is actually the main overseer

Zeus teaches history of like the Jaegars and Pantheon history

Poseidon teaches combat, and Percy is happy to let Annabeth demonstrate all the techniques on him (but oh lord watching the two of them spar)

Hades teaches drifting shit and run the simulator

Demeter is all about international relations, learning other languages, and working with other Jaegar units around the world

Ares runs the workout program💀 Clarisse will kick all their asses and then when they’re all laying on the floor dYING that’s when Chris will be like “all right guys time for the cooldown! gimme a hundred jumping jacks and fifty pushups”

Apollo, Artemis, and Dionysus teach xenobiology🥰 we’re here to learn about kaiju! and also where to hit them.

Hephaestus is all about showing the pilots how their Jaegar actually works— all the inner workings and engineering shit

Aphrodite teaches emotional connections (because gods know none of these military idiots are very good at that) to strengthen drift

Hermes is mostly in charge of recruiting and introduction. they teach short classes in regular schools all over the place about the Greek Jaegar Program and the Pantheon

anyways I kinda wanna talk about bot design later but I have too many drafts so it’ll have to wait

Love how Pacific Rim became its own genre of fanfic AUs because the concept of soulmate-powered giant robots was just that good.

Last year I made this drawings for Nico's birthday but forgot to post them here

I was so excited to see his and Jason's friendship developing in the future, unfortunately rick hates us and though it'd be really funny to kill jason 😒

Anyways, happy birthday nico <3

uhhh even more percy jackson headcanons

- there’s always music playing in the apollo cabin. they have communal playlists, but there are times when one person gets to play dj, especially when it’s relatively empty

- everyone has to emotionally prepare for audial whiplash whenever kayla gets to play music because she puts every song she has ever liked in her entire life onto one playlist, so it can go from twenty one pilots to ethel cain to beabadoobee to fifth harmony in just fifteen minutes

- will is usually pretty lenient with who gets to play what and when (he has a few clean playlists for when there are little kids present), but on days when the infirmary is packed and he’s visibly on the verge of collapse, no one dares change it from whatever kasey musgraves song he just put on

- austin exclusively plays obscure 20+ minute-long jazz songs. austin no longer has access to the cabin 7 spotify account

- there are bi-monthly meetings with all the counselors and chiron and dionysus to discuss any problems, questions, quests, deaths, fights, complaints, and other issues

- chiron ended up helping train and appointing a few other apollo kids to take up shifts in the infirmary when will accidentally fell asleep in the middle of one of said meetings. will kept insisting it was fine and that he wasn’t overworked, but eventually gave in when nico kept having to nudge him awake and chiron had to send him back to the apollo cabin early so he could take a nap

- frank cried so hard when he saw barbie that he had to leave the theater for a minute

- drew and will went to the sweat tour together

- drew actually kind of hates that charlie xcx is only really getting properly noticed now because of brat, because she’s a huge charlie fan and has been here since “boom clap”

- ever since blood of olympus, percy is genuinely terrified of getting a nosebleed. the first time it happens is when he’s sick at college and annabeth has to coach him through a panic attack

- nico isn’t actually that invested in star wars, star trek, or any other sci-fi franchise that will obsesses over, but sits through it anyways for his boyfriend’s sake

- piper and shel dressed up as different versions of chappell roan for halloween. piper was lady liberty chappell and shel was “good luck, babe” bird chappell

- every chance they get, piper and leo meet up, get jack in the box, smoke weed, and catch up in whatever car piper stole from her dad, because it helps them both feel normal

- piper and will smoke together whenever she visits camp, usually while having a shit talk session

- sally, paul, and estelle visited percy and annabeth for family and friends weekend while they’re at school, of course, but tyson, ella, hazel, and frank, piper and leo, and nico, will, reyna, and thalia (and, by nature, the rest of the hunters) all made time to stop by at various points during family and friends

- once he realized he could occasionally get away with sneaking out of olympus in the middle of the night, ganymede developed a habit of taking a walk down the beach at camp. he ran into dionysus one night and fully expected to have to fetch some fancy wine for him, or at least go back to get his chalice, unaware of his sobriety punishment, but did a total 180 when dionysus ended up being kind to him. instead, the two of them walked and talked about how much they both hate zeus, and it ended up becoming a therapy session for ganymede (think aimee’s first session in sex education)

- sally got annabeth one of those self defense keychains before she left for school

- apollo brings meg to camp every time he goes to visit his kids. on one visit, he took her, will, kayla, austin, and nico to build-a-bear. it was meg and nico’s first time going. nico was in total awe and meg cried and hugged apollo for a minute straight

- hazel prefers cartoons and animation over live-action movies and shows

- percy is really good at watercolor. rachel tries to teach him to paint and thinks he’s a prodigy until they move onto acrylics and she realizes he was just manipulating the water

- annabeth and sally both love watching the princess bride together. percy tries to watch it three separate times for their sake, like nico does with will’s sci-fi stuff, but ends up drooling on annabeth’s shoulder by the end of the movie each time

- percy desperately wanted a water bed for years when he was younger, but neither chiron nor sally would trust him with one. he eventually begged paul to get him one as a graduation present, and he put it in his cabin at camp. it lasted less than 24 hours before he popped it and woke up in the middle of the night on top of the deflated mattress, he himself completely dry but his floor absolutely soaked. dionysus made an announcement at breakfast the next morning that any mattress filled with anything except air was prohibited, and anyone else who flooded their cabin would get stable duties for a whole week

- will doesn’t like to use his plague powers very much after tsats, but he does like to give anyone who pisses him off mild-but-annoying congestion or a lingering headache

- nico and will like to do this thing to mess with people, where nico cracks will’s back or will cracks his knuckles and he lights up, usually in front of people who don’t actually know how will’s powers work

- austin is the exception to this rule; they do it in front of him because he hates the sound of people cracking their bones

- there was a point where everyone knew that will could glow except percy. he found out the hard way when he, annabeth, nico, and will were hanging out in the jackson-blofis apartment and the power went out, and nico cracked will’s spine and will started glowing. percy was so freaked out that he screamed and woke up the rest of the house

- sometimes frank eats fistfuls of shredded cheese, for the thrill

- very rarely, rachel talks in her sleep and says indiscernible bits of prophecies, both new and old. she has no idea she does it

- apollo hates leonard cohen

Both Aphrodite and Apollo cabins are popular in camp half-blood for being full of pretty people, both cabins campers have the reputation of being the most attractive persons in miles around without exaggerating

But also a general concense is that the beauty of the two cabins is pretty much different

Apollo "the most beautiful among the gods"always was represented as a kouros his image was the perfection of a young man, the top of the bar when is about a standard

And just like their father Apollo kids often are sort kind of standar

They are an ideal of what is supposed to be attractive, being always aligned to what is the hegemony of beauty, obviously that doesn't mean that all of them are "perfect" is comun that one of two things slip out the parameters, their dad is also a very artistic god and what's art wihout breaking some limitations? but the point remains, they're attractive to almost everyone because they are what you always heard is supposed to be beautiful

Aphrodite, in the other hand, is the goddess of love and beauty as concepts , something so fluid and free to interpretation and we see that with her, because she's not an standar, an standar is closed and pretty well known, she is the beauty itself donw your ideas of it always changing because to no one she would be exactly the same

And their kids also are like their Mother, changing and indescriptible

their faces are always beautiful down what its their own idea of beauty, but for you they would look a little bit as your own ideals, and even if they weren't your type you can't deny that it's something magnetic around them, it's not just the beautiful looks but also pure incarnated Beauty that no words can describe.
