Poseidon: Stops Zeus from killing Percy by giving up his pride, begging and surrendering.

My hope for future seasons with Hades: Literally shielding Nico with his whole body and holding him(to mirror a flashback of him protecting Nico and Bianca). Begging Zeus not to take anything more from him.

*me banging pots and pans as I shout*

Let Hades be a good dad too. They better make him a good dad.

[sorrybutthisonestaken]

I don't understand how there are so many fics for the sea fam but you can scarcely find one for Hades and Nico. Hades who would let nothing happen to his wife, dog, or mother in law/sister. Hades who was the most level-headed in the myths. Hades who offered his nephew and his mother sanctuary from his own father the Titan lord the moment the king of the underworld found out he was rising again.

Hades deserves to be a good dad, and not just seen as a villain all over again

I finally got Hades for my birthday

[thelaundryghost]

Descent.

The first of hopefully a couple fancomics for Hades! I love this game dearly, and I wanted to explore one of the in-game quotes a bit with this. This took me about a month or so of inconsistent work, and I'm pretty happy with it!!

Hope you enjoy :D Explanation in the tags

[ep2nd]

I'm gonna be real

I feel like Hypnos is an amazing dad, Hades Game, Percy Jackson, whatever

Also that the Oneroi are his sons just makes sense

In that sense...

IT MUST REALLY SUCK FOR THE HYPNOS CABIN WHEN SOMEONE DIES

LIKE, SURE, MOST GODS ARE RELATED, BUT HYPNOS CABINS UNCLE IS LITERALLY DEATH

Hypnos be like to his twin, Pwease don't kill my baby I know it's you job but I love em 🥺,

Like he has so many immortal children it's so hard for him to imagine his kids dieing, like he'd put them in a coma to save em or something

I feel like if they do die, or close to death, he may turn them into Oneroi, is that possible??, so he can always be with them

Man can go visit his kids in their DREAMS, Zeus got nothing on him, buddy would be visiting his kids probably to spite him, we all know that one myth

Last note, I feel like Phobetor, God of Nightmares and son of Hypnos, wouldn't give his siblings nightmares, and only them, gives everyone else nightmares too

Hypnos family is probably the only good functional loving family tell me I'm wrong

Rip Persephone she only ever got to raise plants

Fantober day 31!! A free day again.

Recently gotten into HADES, and I think about them a normal amount (lie)

[gotstabbedbyapen]

My journey in searching for Zeus and Persephone's father-daughter bonding had been rewarded with these gem pieces.

"Sow some splendor on the island (Sicily), which Zeus the lord of Olympus gave to Persephone; he nodded assent with his flowing hair, that as the best land on the fruitful earth he would make Sicily fertile and prosperous in her cities blossoming with wealth. And the son of Cronus sent her a people enamored of bronze-armored battle, horsemen often wedded to the golden leaves of Olympia's olive." - Nemean Ode by Pindar

This one paragraph gave three interesting things:

Zeus being a good father to Persephone!!!! He gifted her Sicily and a group of armored horsemen (probably for companion), and even ensured the island's soil to always be fertile and yield good harvest for the cities to thrive.

More evidence that Persephone is a vegetation goddess!!! I hate it when people erase her duality by claiming her to only be the Queen of the Underworld. Let Persephone be a paradoxical goddess and rule both life and death!!!

Zeus having flowing hair!!! (probably where Apollo got his pretty hair from)

There's also a version where Zeus gave Sicily to Persephone as a wedding present when she marries Hades. Yes, he did traumatized Persephone with the arranged marriage but at least the gift is a huge compensation XD

"The Siceliotae who dwell in the island have received the tradition from their ancestors, the report having ever been handed down successively from earliest time by one generation to the next, that the island is sacred to Demeter and Core; although there are certain poets who recount the myth that at the marriage of Pluton (Hades) and Persephone Zeus gave this island as a wedding present to the bride." - Library of History by Diodorus Siculus

On a final note, Zeus also helps Demeter and Persephone out with the harvest in Sicily apparently.

"That the ancient inhabitants of Sicily, the Sicani, were indigenous, is stated by the best authorities among historians, also that the goddesses we have mentioned (Demeter and Core/Persephone) first made their appearance on this island, and that it was the first, because of the fertility of the soil, to bring forth the fruit of the corn, facts to which the most renowned of the poets also bears witness when he writes: But all these things grow there for them unsown And e'en untilled, both wheat and barley, yea, And vines, which yield such wine as fine grapes give, And rain of Zeus gives increase unto them. Indeed, in the plain of Leontini, we are told, and throughout many other parts of Sicily the wheat men call "wild" grows even to this day." - Library of History by Diodorus Siculus

"Poison Bending is Okay." Percy Jackson Rec List

Is anyone else upset that Annabeth told Percy that "some things aren't meant to be controlled," in HoH? Here's a list of fics where people in Percy's life comfort and tell him that it's okay for him to have and use his power over poison. Enjoy!

Also check out Percy in Tartarus, Powerful Percy Jackson and Dark Percy Jackson rec lists for more fics where Percy uses his blood and poison bending powers.

No one ever tells you that the worst part of war is learning to live with it after. As Percy struggles to accept events in Tartarus and his growing powers, at least he has his divine family to help.

Percy Jackson & Hermes, Percy Jackson & Blackjack, background Percy Jackson/Annabeth Chase

Good Friend Hermes, Percy Needs a Hug, Emotional Hurt/Comfort

Percy senses the blood before he sees it, the way he can sense water, seas and oceans. It's only a matter of time before his powers leak out, and hurts someone. Chiron talks to him, but it doesn't help. Chiron doesn't know what happened; apparently Annabeth isn't speaking to him, and Percy sure as hell isn't about to spread the fact that he has power over poison, blood and ichor around. He even gets on Mr. D's nerves. The alcoholic god glares at him and says: "I could smite you. Turn your blood against you, your molecules to dust." All Percy can think is, yeah, so can I.

Powerful Percy Jackson, PTSD, Percy Jackson Needs a Hug

After the War against Gaea, Percy finds himself struggling in the life he worked so hard to get back to. The more he tries to fit back in, pushing down his powers and emotions after the war, the more things seem to fall apart. As Olympus prepares to officially reopen at the Winter Solstice, Hermes takes notice that something is off with the Savior of Olympus. But when he asked for help from Hades, none of them could imagine what Percy’s trip to the Pit led to and what it will mean for the hero. Or Percy finally reckons with the consequences of challenging Akhlys with a little help from his immortal family, who he might be around for a lot longer than he thought.

[sprucestairs]

I love the idea of a pjo and Hades cross over but the ones where it's implied that the events are occurring like. Simultaneously. Will never not be funny to me because of how different the gods look in each universe. Do they play eenie meenie miny mo to decide what form to take on a given day?

Like I say this with so much love in my heart: Hypnos switches between looking like a muppet and Just Some Guy.

[dork-scribbles]

If I not wrong, in the myth of the birth of Dyonisus there is different versions of who adopted him. And in one of this versions, Hades was his adopted father, which is simply hilarious to me.

Imagine something like this:

[one-in-a-million-fishsticks]

The Netflix show Kaos just rewired my brain chemistry.

First of all, fuck Zeus. That fucker killed a kitten, a baby, and who-the-fuck-knows who else. I will never forgive him.

Secondly, Dionysus as an immature fratboy is everything that I never knew I needed.

Hera is awful and deserves every bit of shit that Zeus gives her, but we already knew that.

Persephone was ✨ SLAYING ✨ from start to finish, her and Hades have my whole heart.

Prometheus genuinely had me snorting here and there, I loved him.

Fuck all the way off, Poseidon.

The fact that the entire rest of the pantheon fails to appear at all purely because they make a hobby out of avoiding Zeus at any cost might be the funniest fucking thing ever to come out of an interpretation of Greek mythology.

Riddy (Eurydice) and Orpheus are both such great characters, alone and as a complicated relationship thing. They're super well rounded and developed, both mean well, but they're so humanly written. They don't know what to do with each other, neither wants to hurt the other, but their decisions are flawed and their love has turned into such a messy situationship. It's beautiful when they finally communicate and accept the circumstances for what they are.

A healthy breakup, in my Greek mythology media?

It's more likely than you think!

Canaeus, my beloved.

Cassandra, my scruffier beloved!!!! 🤩

Ari, you own my heart now.

All such well written characters, now where's my Season 2 announcement?

[jocelynmakenna]

I know everyone was mad at Rick changing the quest to failing the deadline but come on. Getting Posideon to jump in and forfeit a war because he cares about his kid? It lends so much to why Percy would stay loyal to his dad! His dad just saved his ass aND chose to lose a war for him. Posideon chose to give up his GLORY for HIS SON!! Exactly what Percy would do!!

PLUS the whole "do you dream of mom?" Like!! They both care about Sally so much!! And while Percy has mixed feelings on the whole god thing, his dad has been nothing but kind! Sure he was absent, but in the 2 scenes we've seen, he's far and away the best parent of all the gods we've seen.

[somewhereincairparavel]

okay but hades saying that it would've been better if Nico died instead of Bianca was so out of pocket why isn't anyone talking abt it 😭 my anger issues could never handle that bs if I were nico lol.

[paintsplash1712]

Imagine if Percy's dad was a different version of Poseidon, like Supergiant Hades' or Epic the Musical's?

How do you think Percy would react?
