#im really into the holiday spirit with Percy

[dreamdragonkadia]

My Christmas saga continues.

p.jackson x reader

Being here really was bad for the wallet. New York had a way of draining it without mercy, and even worse, your two suitcases—already bursting at the seams—weren’t faring much better. You and Percy had only been here for a little over a week, and you’d both been dragged into the gravitational pull of every little boutique and holiday pop-up shop you passed. The logic was airtight, at least on your part. There were so many cute things that would look perfect in your West Coast apartment, and obviously, you were already planning ahead for the bigger picture: the house you two kept daydreaming about, one that would be bought in a few years.

The city was magic this time of year, snow clinging to sidewalks like dusted sugar, the streets humming with holiday cheer, and Sally Jackson’s apartment warm and cozy in comparison to the chill outside. It felt like you’d blinked and the week had flown by.

Still, there were a few more days to soak it all in.

Percy’s head was heavy on your stomach, one arm draped lazily across your hip as he refused to acknowledge the start of the day. You were half-sure he was still asleep, but you caught the way his lips twitched when Sally, ever the wonderful host and future mother-in-law, walked in and handed you a cup of coffee. “You two are worse than Estelle when it comes to waking up,” she teased with a smile, cradling her own mug.

“I’m awake,” you defended with a grin, careful not to jostle Percy too much. Your free hand absently combed through his unruly dark hair, which, in hindsight, probably wasn’t doing him any favors in the motivation department. He groaned in response, though you could feel his smile against your sweater.

Sally chuckled softly, sitting down on the arm of the couch with a content sigh. “What are the plans today? Or is it another day of convincing Percy to do more shopping?”

At that, Percy groaned dramatically, muffled into your stomach. “I didn’t sign up to carry this many bags on my vacation,” he grumbled. You nudged him with your elbow.

“You signed up when you became my fiancé,” you reminded him cheerfully. “It’s in the fine print.”

“That’s unfair. No one reads the fine print.”

“You should’ve,” you teased, grinning as you tugged gently on his hair. He finally looked up at you, sea-green eyes groggy but warm, his lopsided smile peeking through. Sally watched the exchange with that soft, knowing expression only mothers seemed to master, and you felt your cheeks heat up just a little under her gaze.

“Well, if you’re asking for input,” you said, turning to Sally, “we were thinking about heading into Midtown today. Percy wants to check out the LEGO store because he’s basically a seven-year-old in disguise.”

“I heard that,” Percy mumbled, though he didn’t even try to deny it.

“And then we’re grabbing lunch somewhere,” you continued, ignoring him. “After that, we can go ice skating if you’re up for it?”

Sally’s face brightened at the suggestion. “Oh, I’d love that! Estelle’s been asking about skating for weeks.”

At the mention of her name, Estelle Jackson herself came running into the room, still in her pajamas, her hair a curly mess of bedhead. “Did you say skating?!” she squealed, practically bouncing as she climbed onto the couch to tackle Percy’s legs.

“Whoa there, kiddo—personal space,” Percy whined, though he reached out to tickle her sides, sending her into fits of giggles.

You smiled as you sipped your coffee, watching the scene unfold. There was something so good about being here—about the way the Jackson family took you in like one of their own without hesitation. Sally always insisted you two stay with them when you visited, never taking no for an answer. And as much as you teased Percy about being glued to his childhood bed, it was nice waking up to the smell of Sally’s cooking and the sound of Estelle dragging her brother into another one of her games.

A yawn escaped Percy as he finally sat up, ruffling his hair like a sleepy golden retriever. “Fine. Skating it is. But if I wipe out, you’re buying dinner.”

“Deal,” you said quickly.

Estelle grinned wickedly. “Percy always falls!”

“I do not!”

“You fell last time,” Sally chimed in helpfully, sipping her coffee with an innocent look.

You bit back a laugh as Percy shot his mom an incredulous look, clearly betrayed.

The next few hours were a whirlwind of jackets, scarves, and laughter as you all bundled up to head into the cold. The city seemed to sparkle as snow flurries fell, dusting the streets in white. Percy tried to grumble about carrying your shopping bags, but you caught him sneaking a glance at one of your purchases—a tiny ornament shaped like a sea turtle—and knew he secretly loved it.

Midtown was as busy as ever, lights and sounds blending together into something magical. Estelle tugged on Percy’s arm at every window display, practically dragging him to the Rockefeller Center tree. You caught Sally watching the two of them with a soft smile, her eyes glimmering with pride.

And later, when you were all lacing up ice skates, Percy leaned in close, his breath warm against your ear. “For the record, if I fall, I’m taking you down with me.”

You grinned. “Wouldn’t have it any other way.”

The day stretched on, full of stolen moments like these—Percy stumbling on the ice and pulling you into his arms to steady himself, Estelle clinging to both of you as she skated ahead triumphantly, Sally laughing harder than you’d ever seen as she tried to keep up.

By the time you made it back to the apartment, rosy-cheeked and exhausted, it was nearly dark outside. The glow of the Christmas tree filled the living room as you all collapsed onto the couch, Percy pulling you close to his side with a content sigh.

“This,” he murmured, pressing a kiss to your temple, “is what makes all the shopping worth it.”

You laughed softly, snuggling into him. “I told you so.”

From the other end of the couch, Estelle chimed in sleepily, “You two are gross.”

You and Percy exchanged a glance, smiling as you both leaned over to ruffle her hair.

“Get used to it, kid,”

Ten people i'd like to get to know better

Tagged by @simonthesneasnake

Last song: Winter Anymore, by critical role. I think we can all establish that Ashley Johnson is a natural treasure, and she nailed this song aswell. Yasha really hits close to the heart, and Ashley's voice makes it a bullseye.

Favourite colour: a kind of dark blue, but its not really dark. It goes a bit towards green. Idk how to describe it but its lightdarkblue

Last book: Thieves Gambit by Kayvion Lewis, i havent finished it yet, but i blame school. Break has started so ill probably have it finished within a few days. Im really in love with it already. After that i think im gonna read sword catcher, wich i have already bought, and maybe ill finish Percy Jackson and the chalice of the gods, but im kinda saving that for a sad day cause it just gives me that nostalgia giggles.

Last Movie: Bad mom's 2, its a Christmas movie and it was actually pretty funny. I watched it with my mom, since she wanted to watch a Christmas movie with me and this one didnt seem all too bad. If we're talking kind of movies i like: marvel and Disney movies, but basically anything fantasy with sparks of humor and trauma (yes Disney does trauma in their movies you just have to look for it)

Last tv-show: Does critical role count? If not i would bet it is the legend of vox machina. Yes im critically critical role obsessed, they have become a part of me. But anyways i really wanna watch arcane and even more so since some of my friends from the uk told me its really good and id really like it. I also watch a lot of British detectives, no im not from Britain, but i wouldnt know wich one i watched last+its something of a tradition with my parents so i didnt really count them.

Sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet>Savoury>spicy,

I love spicy food but i dont really crave it, i would also say it really depends on the moment and what ive eaten already cause my stomach is very specific with what it can handle at a certain moment of my day...

Relationship status: Singleeeeeee. Isnt everyone? No i just tell myself that. Seriously tho i really dont mind it, its something i choose for myself as i believe i dont really have the time for a relationship. I do have the time im just not willing to sacrifice it wich i think says enough. (Also im pretty young so im good)

Last thing I googled: Sims 4 cheat codes, I installed the game a week ago and got some spare time on my hands yesterday so I decided to play a bit, the game however went a little too slow for my stress-powered brain so i decided to speed up the process.

Current obsession: Critical role/bg3, i am in love with the cr cast and they really feel like older siblings to me, as i am an only child. And bg3 just is an amazing game and the voice actors are also such a lovely community (i sense a pattern here, Hmm) I am Particularly in love with aliona and jen(iffer English) they are such a cutesy couple and are just warmth all around.

Looking forward to:

WINTER BREAK

It starts tomorrow and i already have so many fun things planned. Im going ice skating, watching my series and hopefully catching up a bit on critical role c2. I am also really looking forward to having time to get better at New skills, i have been attempting to learn blender but have been stuck on the same part of a tutorial for 3 months. My reading has greatly diminished aswell so im hoping the Christmas spirit will have me reading in the mornings from the comfort of my warm bed. Also gonna see some family over the holidays (i see them a lot but theyre getting older so i really like spending time with them, it brings me peace)

Tagging (no pressure)

Can I please get some ex-catholic Mallory and an AU where Magnus is Frederick's kid?

im really annoyed bc i wrote several hundred words here and then forgot to save it so it all got deleted

okay so first mallory

originally goes to church cause its whats expected of her as a catholic even in belfast but the continues cause its somewhere that she can be away from her dad before she's allowed out alone even if its boring and pointless to her at best and toxic and homophobic at worst

when she's thirteen or so she stops going so much because she can go out by herself and doesn't need that escape any more

her favourite saints are bridget and joan

she can really relate to joan considering how she dies

✨internalised homophobia that she goes to therapy and works on✨

doesn't go in for the whole god is real as well as the norse gods like sam does but has just decided the universe is weird an i don't actually give a shit unless it directly affects me/the people i care about

in valhalla still does the more somber holidays like lent and good friday but thats mainly so its not 100 all the time and she enjoys the self reflection that comes with fasting and prayer even if she doesn't believe in an omnipotent, omnibenevolent, omnipresent deity

when she's out in the mortal world she goes to mass occasionally but its more nostalgia than belief and the thing is she keeps showing up at the same catholic church occasionally in boston since the early seventies that the priest is convinced she's a spirit of some kind of a ghost

like thats a whole conspiracy theory

she keeps her rosary beads that she was given by her grandmother at her first communion on her when she's not on a mission or in battle and its one of her most treasured items

MAGNUS TIME

magnus raised by frederick

so frederick in his heteronormitive ways decided the best way to not end up with a surprise child was to date a dude

who happens to be a god

so then he ends up with our boy who's raised well but its frederick so

and then helen comes along shortly after that bobby and matthew

she doesn't treat magnus as badly as annabeth bc there aren't any spiders but its not great regardless

so he runs away and they get with thalia and luke and then to camp

he's never claimed but is assumed to probably be a son of apollo, asceplius or like demeter since frederick never even talks about his other parent

he gets a lot more in control of his powers than he is in canon amd is better at growing stuff

spends most of his time in the strawberry fields or the infirmary

his weapon is a knife because be finds swords difficult but can use one in a pinch

kinda can do his peace of frey thing in capture the flag and gets better but still passes out a lot of the time because he's like seven

moves back with his dad two years before tlt but fuck helen and fuck frederick treat your kids properly

does get along with bobby and matthew but also is like jealous that they get loved and not just tolerated

he doesn't blame them for that though

so they go back to camp

magbus used to be quite close with luke but starts getting a bad feeling from him and demigod dreams so he starts pulling away unconsciously and then deliberately

then tlt

magnus and percy get on quite well

they're friends before percy and annabeth are

and magnus helps percy deal with his mom

he and annabeth have a fight becauss of this because she wants him to side with him after percy gets claimed and magnus is like no ♥️

they make up after the quest and go home for the school year

magnus doesn't return the next summer but goes and stays with his aunt natalie and her wife and they treat magnus like their own and he tells them about frederick so he ends up staying there all the time

he's overjoyed to reunite with thalia and she's really proud of how good he's gotten at everything

he living with his dad again and bobby and matthew worship him. especially after he healed matthew's scraped knee super easily

ends up in the final battle of the titans curse but doesn't go to olympus bc the gods freak him out (understandably they're weird)

saves a couple of lives in the battle of the labyrinth but nearly dies from overpowering himself

then he goes home and a wolf kills his dad

he gets on better with helen at this point but needs a new start after losing his dad so he moves in with natalie again

the three of them go hiking a lot and she teaches him all he has to know about living outside which helps him with his occasional asthma attacks (doesn't get them much at camp because he's in nature but they start coming back when he went home)

natalie's wife is really nice and persuades magnus to try therapy but he can't exactly say what happened to him because its demigod stuff but he does start recovering from having his father brutally murdered in front of him

there's two homeless guys outside his building, a tall one during the day and a short one at night

he misses the battle of manhattan entirely because he broke his legs the week before and natalie wouldn't let him go even though he begged her

he does win a good amount of bet money from percabeth getting together

goes to camp over the winter and goes with annabeth when she's looking for percy

kinda still pissed he's not been claimed yet since he's over thirteen

but it's more that the hermes cabin still kinda sucks than he feels abandoned

he has a kinda flirtation with jason before he goes on his quest

the scene with annabeth in cabin one is now magnus and jason

but he goes back to boston before they get back

but jason gets magnus' address off annabeth so they write to eachother and magnus is essentially jasons's bi awakening

he does not go back to camp that summer but after he does visit jason and piper (they're friends fight me) in california after seeing helen and his brothers

then in january he dies but does give a better fight

more prepared than canon magus but still himbo energy

isn't tempted for himself to get his dad back but rather his brothers but doesn't fall for it

gunilla doesn't die

this isn't really relevant i just wanted it there okay

then he reunites with natalie and her wife who i should probably name and they have a nice time

so now he has four dads and two moms

good for him

still falls in love with alex the second he sees her

a mood

natalie gives him the advice to not make him a total dumbass in front of her

it doesn't work

they bond less over being homeless and more about their relationships in their family

everything else is pretty much the same though

alls well that ends well:)
