[pain-is-too-tired]

I see a lot of Apollo kids getting cold easily type of stuff. But I offer-

Apollo kids being able to warm themselves to a certain extent vs Hephaestus kids getting cold easily.

The Sun is what warms the earth. It's what makes it cold or warm and it can't really be put out.

Fire on the other hand??

Like yes you make fire to warm yourself, but fire can be put out in a way the sun can't. You can hide from the sun, sure. But you can't throw water on it and call it a day.(also, metal in general can cool down at a certain level and take a lot to get to its melting point-)

So yeah. Hephaestus kids are wrapped up in 50 layers during the winter why the Apollo kids might even be seen in sweaters and shorts-

Leo an exception simply because he can summon actual fire, but still-

Rick Riordan: If I had a nickel for every time a son of Hephaestus died heroically in an explosion in the fifth book in my series, I’d have two nickels.

Rick Riordan: Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.

Rick Riordan: Unless…

Me *Standing protectively in front of of Harley*: No, Rick- please!!

Demigod Kids Always Win

Some demigods have godlike power or mastery over the mind, but others have more subtle abilities. These understated skills are among the first to present among demigod children.

And what do these divine young ones do with these blessings?

Win.

Whether it’s competitions, bets, or just a game, very few demigods lack a competitive spirit.

⚡️Zeus: best jump-roper, longest breath-holder, highest jumper

🌊Poseidon: best sandcastle builder, best paper boat-maker, fastest swimmer, deepest diver, best fisherman

🌾Demeter: most berries picked, prettiest flower crown-maker, coolest stick-finder

💀Hades: coolest rock-finder, deepest digger, scariest storyteller, hide n seek champion, mafia winner

☀️Apollo: Angry Birds winner, Quack/Clap Dilly Oso champion, loudest voice, longest sun-stare, best singer

🍇Dionysus: funniest Mad Lib, staring contest champion (credit: @king-zacharyy ), fastest tree-climber, best storyteller, best party-thrower

🕊️Aphrodite: best braid/hairstyle, prettiest nail polish, best makeup

📦Hermes: Mario Kart winner, Duck Duck Goose champion (credit: @king-zacharyy ), fastest runner, best pickpocket, best prankster

🧠Athena: prettiest friendship bracelet, rock paper scissors & Evolution game champion, chess champion, ninja game champion

🧨Ares: thumb war champion, arm-wrestling champion

🔥Hephaestus: best Minecraft builder, best Lego builder, Jenga champion, most jalapeños eaten

Do you think there would be some gods who would have soft spots for some specific demigods?

for example: Hephaestus could have a soft spot for Athena's children (since Hephaestus was in love with her in some myths)

I mean that's the sort of same question asking as why do certain gods favour certain demigods or heroes in the myths? Or why any of the gods have any favourability to any individual?

It could simply because they have a reason to; regardless of the reason.

If we're going with your example, I mean sure, that could be a reason; though just because they're the demigods of certain gods, I wouldn't say just because some gods have a soft spot towards them, it's still entirely up to the demigod to not let the god's favourability towards them sour cause it can very much go wrong. Because even though Hephaestus may have fallen in love with Athena before, her demigod children are still not her and Hephaestus may only be soft for the aspects of Athena in them. Everything else is not so sure and whatever action and/or personality may lose them that soft spot.

The examples escape me but there is evidence in the books that display this, heck, you can look at the mythological stories. Just imagine the reverse opposite scenario where the reason Jason, the son of Zeus, was favoured by Hera who historically hates the children of Zeus because they are a symbol of Zeus' infidelity, is because Jason was her offered champion and etc. The First Jason, not Jason Grace btw, lost Hera's favour because he committed the same infidelity like his godly father, and went against his patron god's domain; with Hera being the goddess of Marriage so committing infidelity as her champion? YIKES

In general, yeah some gods may have soft spots for certain demigods but that also means you have create and maintain that favour. The gods are both fickle and set in their ways, so you have to on your toes to make sure you don't insult them, less that soft spot sours into something hate.

My percy jackson fans.

Has it the idea of a half blood school occured to anyone?

Now I'm not just talking about a regular old school. But we were given a summer camp for our darling demigod children, but what if the gods took the time and created an academy for their children?

Ever since the camp was created, their children first stepped foot in the camp and were sorted in their cabins, there was still those who didn't have a place to go , family that didn't want them around, and things in normal schools that the camp didn't have or could provide for the children.

So the gods created the Half-blood academy for their demigod children.

The half blood academy has normal classes that any school has. It also has dorm room for kids if they wish to stay until they graduate. The academy was also under the care of Chiron as headmaster.

The academy also had stables for the Pegasus, a large library, a cafeteria, a large bonfire, an auditorium, a music room, an infirmary, definitely a pool, an inside and outside gym with an obstacle course and a fight ring alongside their weapons to train with, they also have an archery range, many kinds of classrooms and a workshop for the Hephaestus kids

They also have many classes with different subjects and, of course, many clubs and many different sports, not just capture the flag (school version)

Also, to the demigod world, the school is their second home away from home or second favorite place other than camp. But to normal people, it's a school for the "special needs" kids.

The half blood academy is also not the only one in existence. Other schools would be created by other gods for their children. They would also participate in sport competitions with both normal and other demigod schools, except with the normal schools, they have to never show their abilities. And Aphrodite's children also created their own cheerleader team (other demigods are welcome)

Also, the satyrs are the caretakers or the academy and guides along with guards, referees, and guidance councilors, while dionysius is the deputy headmaster under Chiron.

Ohh I see! I’ve just read the Athena one and it’s awesome! Uhmmm could u do the ephestus one next? Is he a main one? Idk tbh. Cause i don’t wanna like request Eros who’s minor cause yk ur order and sum but ephestus would be fun! (Sorry if the name’s wrong… I ain’t English native an dim not sure about the spelling, sorry). Have a lovely day and again: love the Athena cabin!❤️‍🔥

⇢ ˗ˏˋ hephaestus cabin headcanons ࿐ྂ

hi!! i think you meant hephaestus, and of course i can do that! if you want to request eros or any other minor god, go for it! and thank you so much for the love on the athena cabin hcs, they were so much fun! have a great day, and thank you for the request love! <333

so hephaestus kids are cool but kinda chaotic

their minds run a mile a minute

they always have new ideas for things to make on their mind, and things to invent

they just always have a lot of ideas

hephaestus kids do very good in prank wars, because they're very good at rigging up things like buckets of water falling on you when you open a door

another one of their favorite pranks is putting a mento in the cap of a coke and then attaching a string, so that when you open it, the mento falls into the coke and does the foamy thing

so moral of the story, if you can, avoid getting into a prank war with a hephaestus kid

hephaestus kids also come up with the best nicknames for people

a hephaestus kid will spend some time with you, gauge your personality and the things you do, and then they give you a nickname

it's rarely ever a malicious one (or you're a mean person, then you get a bad nickname), it's usually one that fits you that you actually really like

so in my athena cabin hcs i said that they expanded the arts and crafts area, and yes, athena kids are the ones who frequent this area the most, but you'd better believe hephaestus kids are hanging around there as well

they love making things with their hands, and even though they specialize when it comes to mechanical things and working with metal, every one in a while they want to make a pipe cleaner butterfly

beckendorf was really good at origami butterflies

so after they died, everyone made an origami butterfly, and they put a framed picture of him up on the wall, and then surrounded it with origami butterflies (rip)

anyways, moving on

the hephaestus cabin is always just about a bajillion degrees

IT IS ALWAYS SO HOT IN THERE

and even though not all hephaestus kids have the fire power that leo does, they are all less susceptible to heat

i mean, they have to be around heat a lot when they're forging weapons, so naturally, it doesn't affect them as much as it affects others

literally, if you have a friend and the two of you want to hangout, you will literally never be hanging out in the hephaestus cabin, because you will literally melt

(not literally, but you'll just be sweating like a pig the whole time)

hephaestus kids also always make the best marshmallows at the campfire

i mean, come on

they forge amazing weapons, and work with fire on practically a daily basis, of course they roast the perfect marshmallow

if you have a very specific amount of roasted-ness in mind, just tell a hephaestus kid, and there you go, your perfect mallow

the hephaestus cabin also has quite a few retro items, such as cd players and record players

but they're not... exactly like they should be

hephaestus kids like to take these older items and make them more usable and modern

so there are some funky looking record players in the hephaestus cabin

they just like experimenting on things like that

the hephaestus kids also set up a sort of PA system for the camp

this was sanctioned by chiron, but they don't really listen to what he says about it

they play a lot of music, and yes, they do announce things, but there's often some comedy thrown in there

hephaestus kids are actually really funny

like they could honestly be full on comedians

they just have a sort of dry sense of humor, and really good timing, which is like half of being funny

hephaestus kids are also all really close

like when you're a hephaestus kid, your best friends are your siblings that you live with in your cabin

there are always a few typical older siblings that are the oldest in the cabin, usually the head camper of that cabin and a few others that you always know you can go to when you need it

hephaestus kids are also have the least drama

i mean, camp half-blood is filled with teenagers going through puberty, having first crushes and first relationships, that kinda stuff

of course there's gonna be drama

the hephaestus kids just somehow have less

this is partially because they always find themselves focused on things other than who kissed who and who cheated on who and why they did what

they have armor and weapons to make, dude, they can't be focused on that

that's not to say that there isn't drama with hephaestus kids, it's just a lot less common

and whenever you hear something regarding a hephaestus kid in drama, you kinda are taken aback and are like... wait what?

most hephaestus kids' love language is gift giving, and that mostly consists of things made by said hephaestus kid

like, oh you mentioned you wanted to start wearing rings more?

for your birthday, you find a package of like fifty, all different and interesting and unique, with perfect craftsmanship with the name of a hephaestus kid on it

sometimes they collaborate with the hecate kids to put crystals in the jewelry they make (because of course they make jewelry

hephaestus kids are almost never seen not wearing at least one piece of jewelry, made by themselves or their siblings

one head camper of hephaestus cabin like a decade ago taught themselves how to give piercings, and now every head hephaestus camper knows how to give piercings

obviously no hephaestus kid is forced to get a piercing, but most of them are

most of them have their ears pierced at the very least, but it's not uncommon to see a few people with snake bites floating around

chiron, the most innocent ever, has no idea where people are getting pierced, and has asked around, but nobody wants to rat out hephaestus cabin, because it's really convenient

idk i kinda imagine hephaestus kids as a little bit alt

that's all i have for hephaestus cabin headcanons! this was honestly a little bit difficult for me, and honestly i cannot tell you why. i do think these are all pretty good headcanons though, and just because it was kinda hard doesn't mean i didn't love it! (that's what she said) these were really fun, and i can't wait to get to work on the other cabin hcs i have sitting in my requests! thanks so much for reading, i love you all!! <3333

[dontspillthefrijoles43]

no el chispo y la bruja updates in months i’m loosing taste in my left ear and vision in my right💔

Anon you are so sweet 😭, I’m glad people still enjoy my content!

I’m still writing the next few chapters, I hit a road block in between those months between graduating, but I promise I’m getting back into it soon. You never realize there can be plot holes 😃👍🏽

In the meantime I have some hcs on my sillies to supply y’all from this Breisa n Leo drought:

Leo and Breisa have very different curl types, but use the same hair products, to give that same texture and bounce to their curls

Breisa loves sweets, her favorite is baked goods and sour stuff like Chamoy 

Leo loves spicy food, he’s Mexican and Texan, if it doesn’t burn his tongue— is it really spicy? 🤨

Breisa can cook for survival and has a basic understanding of spices work

Leo is the better cook in the relationship

Leo was shorter than Breisa for a while, she teased him restlessly— and then he hit his growth spurt and it flipped

They are still short compared to average height

Leo has an accent in certain words he says or his Leo-isms

Breisa thinks it’s hot , especially when he rambles^

Leo often voice cracks, Breisa thinks it’s cute despite his embarrassment

Breisa is insecure about her weight she thinks it’s too much—Leo is like “wdym Bby g 😤❤️‍🔥”

Leo can and will pick her up when he sees her

Leo is like a furnace in the summer, and he will cuddle Breisa til she kicks him off the bed

Breisa actually tolerates his body temp when it’s cold, she is just as cuddly as him

If she is close to him, Leo will fidget with her fingers and her rings

He loves making her jewelry

She loves wearing it

Breisa favorite color is purple

Leo’s is red orange

When they get together Leo will occasionally have purple lipstick marks on his face

Breisa kisses him where he’s most insecure about, and traces his scars

If she can’t kiss his face, she’ll kiss his wrist were his pulse is

Leo can not flirt for the life of him, it’s bad pick up lines

Breisa gets flustered over his pickup lines, she tries to pretend it has no affect on her

“You think I’m ugly?”- Leo

“In a cute way.” - Breisa

They’re idiots in love 🥰

[built-to-break]

HARLEY HC’S

Went on a quest and now uses brainrot in a lot of his sentences

Got in a fight with Leo and only dressed in blue for the next month

Loves drawing very fvcking much

Picks at his nails

Paints his nails every once in a while so he won’t pick at them (connected to the previous hc)

Has the most intricate hair routine ever (unlike Leo)

[privatewizard]

hi! ignore this!

[starless-nightz]

Hi! I just saw your daughter of Hera headcanons and I adored them! Can I please get something similar but instead as the daughter of Hestia? Thank you!

Being a daughter of Hestia HCs

note -> I love Hestia so much shes one of my favorite greek gods <33

warnings -> none.

content includes -> fluff, platonic! Hestia, everyone at camp likes you.

People are surprised that Hestia has a child. The goddess of the hearth is, of course, a virgin goddess and works to keep peace among the gods, so when you arrive at Camp Half-Blood, it's something of a shock to everyone—Hestia rarely takes a direct part in demigod affairs, and the idea of her having a daughter is unexpected.

You're instantly seen as a soothing presence. The moment you enter the campsite, people notice how your presence seems to bring peace with it. Fights seem to die down when you're near, and tension just melts away. The other campers start looking to you for comfort and advice instead of seeking battle advice or quests. They come to you when they need to be heard or if they had a long day of training and want to unwind.

You spend a lot of time around campfires. You are a daughter of Hestia, and you only feel at home around the fire. You would usually busied by tending it, to keep it burning steadily. You're less concerned with combat and quests than some of the other campers. But you provide a much-needed service: keeping the camp's heart-cordial and warm.

Your cabin is a home for all the others. Just because Hestia herself didn't have a cabin, you're probably sorted into Hermes' cabin, or you've been given your own tiny spot. Whichever the case, wherever you go, your space becomes a haven to the campers. A place to lock themselves up and relax, talking it over, or just being with themselves, not judging each other. You always keep one warm blanket around, should any camper need one, or an extra mug of hot chocolate.

You have a gentle approach to leadership. You do not like to bark orders or rush into battle, yet people hold you in high regard. Your quiet wisdom and soothing way with mediation make you a natural peacemaker and the others often ask you to help negotiate conflicts among the campers. Even the more hot-headed children of Ares or Hermes listen to you when tempers flare.

Your powers are subtle, yet so very valuable. You do not yield fire in a destructive manner, as Hephaestus' children do. You can control hearth flames and bring warmth and comfort with you where you go. You can light fires that never burn out or summon a small flame to soothe someone's anxiety or stress. Your powers are more about protection and nurturing than about combat.

Older campers, especially those who have been through wars and quests, respect you. They have fought enough battles; the tranquil natured attitude is a change of scenery. You are there to remind them it's not all about the fights that make life worth living. Some even open their hearts to you, sharing with you their deepest fears and worries, knowing you'll never betray their trust.

You are attached to nature and home. Like Hestia, you find delight in simplicity and small quiet moments. You love helping in the kitchens, planting flowers, and just sitting with others by the fire. All these so-called ordinary activities happy for you, and you make other people notice the beauty of them too.

People come to you for advice and comfort. Even campers who are more inclined toward fighting or adventure will be drawn to the calmness you bring with you. Children of Athena might look to you when they're troubled by strategy; children of Apollo might come to you when they need emotional support after healing someone else. You're never too busy to listen, and people learn to rely on that.

You're often underestimated, and that's really okay by you. Most anybody who assumes that you aren't a fighter also thinks you won't be much use on quests or in battles. But when it comes to anything involving the heart, family, and loyalty, you're second to none. The way that emotional intelligence and quiet strength keeps people off guard till your role proves to be utterly important.

Chiron and the other leaders trust you highly You're one of those people whose opinions are sought often at camp morale or in case of disputes arising. Chiron values your sober-mindedness and your ability to look at things from every side. You're the one he trusts to help mediate issues between cabins, and your input is quite valued in camp meetings.

Around campfires, you are usually the life of the company. While others may sing or tell stories, you can sit by the fire, stirring and keeping it bright. You seek no attention, but your presence will be felt in the warmth of the flames and the serenity it gives. Without you, the campfire would just not be the same.

hii, this is my first time requesting and I’m not very good with English, so I’m a bit nervous but, I read the Leo Valdez x daughter of Athena and I loved it! So could I request for some general headcanons for Leo Valdez x daughter of Athena? Totally okay if you don’t have time or anything!

thank you so much 💗💗🥰

ask and thou shall receive ༉‧₊˚.

leo valdez dating hcs ! ° ༘⋆₊˚ෆ

pairing: leo valdez x daughter of athena!reader warning(s): none!! a/n: hii! tysm for requesting! i hope u enjoyed this, i love writing leo w a child of athena cause i can finally talk abt his smarts !!

nerd alert!!

its ok tho cause you guys are always able to help each other out when u have an issue with wtv ur working on

leo asks u for advice and ur opinions whenever hes working on a project

i feel like leo would be popular bcs he's a mf social butterfly

which means he knows everything abt everyone

that's why his hair is so big, its full of secrets

so while ur mapping out a plan for the next capture the flag game, you'll ask him if he thinks your plan could work based on how well people know each other

like ur not gonna put 2 ppl with beef by each other, cause then they'll end up fighting each other and not focus on the game

yk? yk.

ur smarts definitely compliment each other, and ut always trying to learn more about each other's interests

leo's definitely picked up some books in ancient greek about battle techniques and architecture

as have you on mechanical engineering

sometimes at the end of the day, when ur laying on the couch in bunker nine together, he'll ask you questions on architecture, just to hear u talk about things ur passionate about

he just loves seeing ur eyes light up and adores the way you practically talk with your hands as well

call me maybe crazy

but

athena would actually kinda like him ?!

she doesnt appreciate his constant jokes

but she thinks hes smart ( bcs he is ) and knows he makes u happy

hephaestus also rlly likes you

he likes anybody who shows his kids love lowkey

which means he likes you extra

if u were ever to get married, leo would 100% make your engagment ring, but hephaestus would me the one who would make you two the most beautiful wedding rings

its his way of showing he cares as a father

all of cabin 9 loves you

i feel like cabin 6 and 9 (omg 69) were already good friends, so they were ecstatic when they heard their fav mfs finally got together

i feel like in the flirting era it was a lot of spending time together, but just being unable to confess your feelings

now you still spend a bunch of time together, but dont rely on longing glaces and lingering touches

leo is the touchiest mf we all know this

but when u touch him?? the boy is in shambles

this sound a little strange but i promise i dont mean it like that

like yea he loves holding ur hand and kissing your knuckles

but when you kiss his knuckles?? hes a flustered mess

when he cups your cheek and you kiss the palm of his hand, he goes craaazzzyyyy

bouncing off the walls nd everything

he loves it when you tell him random little facts nd shit

ur literally his google

his go-to when he has a question

hes super proud of his smart gf ok ??

leo and percy actually get closer when you start dating

cause now they can both obsessively talk abt their genius gfs

and theyve evolved from the "my gf is smarter" "no my gf is smarter" fights

you and annabeth used to find their fights funny tho

annabeth is literally so supportive :))

she trusts leo and knows he makes you happy and has also obvi noticed how u light up his world

she still plays a semi-protective big sister role

like if shes leo getting a little to close, she'll shoot him one of her warning looks, and he'll move a little further away

but other than that she literally loves u guys :)

morse code is used quite often with you two

especially at night, when you dont want to break the comfortable silence, so you tap messages onto each other's backs.

or when your in a crowded room

or when your talking shit

before you met leo, you had only known a little bit of morse code but as you became closer, he taught you more nd more ♡

he loves it when you read to him

ur like his personal podcast

when you finsh reading a book together, u both write reviews about the book and have them all in a little notebook ♡

leo is for sure the type of guy to take pictures of you 24/7, 365

he has his all time favs taped up by his bunk in cabin nine and ofc has some of his bulletin board in bunker nine

he has the rest saved in a box, along with a bunch of other trinkets from dates u went on :))

you have a box like this yourself, filled with pictures of him, trinkets, and metal flowers he's made you ♡♡

oh and you for sure have a spot

you stumbled acrosss it while on your way to bunker nine and showed it to leo immediately

its a small clearing in the trees, where the sun shines through the leaves, and theres a small patch of flowers ♡

u have most of ur dates there, it ur special little place

leo is literally ur most perfect scholar bf fr ♡

a/n pt.2 : heyyy, i hope u enjoyed these hcs!! im trying out hair rollers overnight rn so its a little hard 2 lay down but we will manage! also heres a leo x child of athena moodboard that i did for my event :) anyway, have a good day/night!!

peace from manhattan,

percy jackson ♡

[poppitron360]

Headcannon that Leo’s mom died on March the 14th because how devastating would that be, given how much he loves Archimedes, that his mom died on Pi Day?

[thestarstoasun]

Because the next part of this isn't where I want it to be yet due to packing and schooling, I'm going to post some (more) of my headcanons!

• The Hermes cabin treats all unclaimed demigods as their own siblings even after they get claimed (depending on how fast they get claimed).

• The year-round demigods are closer with each other, but during summer they tend to spend more time with the other campers more. The bonds they have are a bit obvious though.

• Travis and Connor Stoll have a running prank of convincing all new demigods that they're twins (at least until Travis leaves.)

• During Nico's brief stay at camp in The Titan's Curse, he made friends with the Stolls and a few other campers. (Canonically he met Will, but I did hc they met before it was confirmed.)

• The Ares campers are the best at every weapon, except bows. Some Apollo kids (Michael Yew included) take full advantage of bringing this up. When Sherman Yang brought up Will's less than proficient bow skills, Clarisse had Sherman apologize.

• Chiron teaches the year-rounders using Ancient Greek textbooks + books and myths, so they can understand the material easier.

• When Jason shows up, some people have to pay up because there were bets made on which of the Big 3 would have another secret demigod, when Hazel came more drachmas were exchanged to the Apollo cabin. (Drew: "How the Hades did you guess Hades would have another secret child!?" Will: "I mean, technically, it was Pluto?")

• After Beckendorf's death, the Hephaestus cabin seemed to dull until Leo showed up. He reminded them a lot of Beckendorf and yet was so different (starting with height).

• The Demeter kids hate the winter months and prefer spring and summer.

[audreyscribes]

hey!!

What do you think it would be like if a person was a child of Hephaestus, but that child's mother was a legacy of Aphrodite??

And then when the child arrived at Camp Half-Blood, both Hephaestus and Aphrodite would try to claim her...

So with this, I'll go with my interpretation of mythological evidence where well known Greek figures having significant godly figures in their family tree, and are a direct demigod...

Basically: that child of Hephaestus is well...still the child of Hephaestus, so Hephaestus would have the more dominant claim; therefore they would be put in the Hephaestus cabin.

Look, look, I know it would be super duper cool to have more than one god looking over you. But you also got to think like the logistics of it all. Cause realistically, the child's mother is a legacy of Aphrodite; even the grand-daughter of Aphrodite is not a direct claim. Being the child of Hephaestus is the more dominant blood in them. It's another if the child was just a legacy of Aphrodite, there's a chance they would be claimed by Aphrodite and be placed in that respective cabin;

because if a legacy of Aphrodite ended up in Camp Halfblood, their godly blood in them is pretty strong and is powerful enough to be a risk to monsters as a direct demigod.

However,

I present a compromising idea,

The only reason I can see Aphrodite claiming the child of Hephaestus as her own, is because the legacy of Aphrodite has an inherit blessing of Aphrodite (think of if Charmspeak could be passed down). It would explain how their mother attracted Hephaestus' attention. Or their mother was very beautiful but also spoke to Hephaestus' domain; like being an excellent craftsman who made jewelry that was just as beautiful as her. Thus Aphrodite claiming the child is a physical representation because the blood of Aphrodite is strong enough to draw her attention.

Now, it doesn't necessarily have to be Charmspeak, you can think of other abilities that the legacy of Aphrodite may have based on Aphrodite's domain. Maybe the legacy of Aphrodite could have tears of pearls for all I know.

(cause get it, Aphrodite was born out of the sea? And pearls are considered the Jewel of the Sea and the goddess is often depicted rising on a seashell- alright I'll stop-)

They're still going to be put in the Hephaestus cabin but I guess they also have visiting rights to sleep in the Aphrodite cabin. But it would be best to pay equal respect to both godly parents* otherwise, they'll might find themselves being pulled into another marriage dispute between them.

Otherwise, the child of Hephaestus and legacy of Aphrodite will display the usual Hephaestus demigod stereotypes but would lean to something like craftsmanship like jewelry making, sculptures of art, doing more artistic stuff, and so forth.

Will Solace HCs :)

-He spends so much of his time working with ambrosia & nectar that his skin is always practically glowing with health (even without Apollo kid powers).

-Once tried to use Nico's eyeliner. Leo asked him if he was cosplaying a raccoon, Kayla dropped an armful of medical supplies in fear (she thought he was dying), and Will was officially banned from doing his own makeup

-He glows in his sleep so much the other Apollo campers had the Hephaestus cabin make blackout shades for his bed

-Has an incredible singing voice from constantly using prayers/songs to heal and from practicing songs with his mom when he isn't at camp.

-Does not tell anyone about this hidden talent until it becomes relevant. On a picnic date with Nico, he started to sing to his boyfriend as the sun set over camp. Will didn't think that much of it until he looked at Nico, only to see him staring at him in awe

-Had a serious Doc McStuffins phase, and still has a Stuffy plushie on his bed

-On days where the infirmary keeps him busy for hours and hours straight, he starts referring to things by completely incorrect names. Partly for his own amusement and partly due to complete exhaustion.

-This habit was not lost when he started work as a med student in a mortal hospital, which led to him awkwardly trying to explain to his supervisor why he just told a patient they had "entered self-destruct mode" (appendicitis) but not to worry, the doctor would "quickly stab them back to normal" (perform emergency surgery).

Hope you like em! <3
