Tumblr media
Parties weren't my thing, well I would to some of them if my friends asked or were going, but I would be probably just drinking something or on my phone scrolling on my Instagram feed. But, for right now I was dressing up for it, and one of my friends was going. She was pretty popular around campus, she was blonde pretty, with nice brown eyes. Her name was Harper.
I was at my vanity fixing my top, it was a Halloween party. Fixing the top, adjusting the strings, tightening it up. It was a little too tight, looking at the mirror. My bosom was almost spilling out, rubbing my sides. I was thinking of doing some costumes from Legally Blonde. You know when Elle gets tricked into wearing a costume to some party. I was already in the hot pink tights, just missing some bunny ears. I dust some light blush on my cheeks, eyeliner, and some gloss, and put my hair in a half down and half up.
I had some pink high heels in my closet to wear, checking the time it was about 7:50 pm, the party started at 8 and probably would last until the morning hours of 2 or 3 am. I applied some mascara onto my lashes, looking at the mirror and the compact mirror in my hand.
I put my bunny ears on my head, brushed the sides of my hair, and put some red lipstick and some gloss on top. Looking into the mirror, as I tried to pose to be more confident for the party. Harper and I were going to match in some type of way, she was going to be some Playboy costume, so we would have the same bunny aesthetic. Was it too much, I stood up and spun around in my mirror. I didn't want to be a Debbie Downer and change, so I was going to wear it. I walked into my closet, taking out a long pink fluffy jacket to match my outfit, and wearing my heels. Standing a bit taller, it was a lot. I felt some buzzing from my phone, opening it and looking through messages.
Harper: Y/N, I'm at my car right now, you almost done with your costume. - sent
Y/N: Yeah, I'm done, im going to be down in 2 minutes - sent
Harper: Alright - sent
...
I zipped up my jacket, got my dorm keys and my ID into my bag, put it on my shoulder as I opened the door, and walked out. A few people were outside, studying for a bit. I felt a little naked in this costume, crossing my fingers that it wasn't cold outside. I went down the stairs to the Polarity statue, where Harper was sitting in my car, waiting. "Harper!" I yelled, she got off of her phone, and exclaimed back, smiling. "Omg, you actually wore it" She looked at me, "Yeah, It's a little tight but It looks good right," I said
"Of course" She smiled, and to her promise, she was wearing a Playboy costume hers was tighter than mine and revealed more skin, but that was Harper's nature. "Come on, let's go!" She pulled me by my hands and we got into her car and drove off. I was hoping we could get into our dorms without getting into too much trouble. The drive wasn't long, about 20 minutes and we were there at the party. Some sororities house, some red solo cups on the grass, some people already outside making out and whatnot, "Come on, Y/N, don't just stand there" She exclaimed, taking my hand and we walked into the house.
I knew, almost like I predicted it. It smelt like liquor, perfume, sweat, and a bunch of other smells, some people in their costumes, some of the seven, some of Marvel or D.C. superheroes, and others from some horror movies. I turned to my side and Harper was already gone, 'Fuck' I whispered, before walking to some bar in the kitchen and sitting down on the stools. There was a bartender there serving some drinks as people danced away. "Can I get a piña colada?" I asked before the worker left to make the drink, I looked at the dance floor. Bodies rubbed on bodies, it was a scene I guess. Looked like everyone was enjoying themselves except me, but it was just the usual. Hearing the glass on the table, I took it and drank it whole, sitting myself as I listened to my thoughts.
I heard a glass colliding with the wooden counter of the bar and looked to the side to see someone familiar. It would be weird to stare, wouldn't it, but I wore it was someone you knew or saw before.
I tried to peep again but failed to see anything else on the person's face. This was awkward, very awkward. Before I heard the person talk up, "So, what are you doing here?" He asked, looking directly at me.
'Holy Shit' it was Luke, Luke Riordan like the guy who is like the number one. Golden Boy, Golden Boy himself is talking to me, breathing right next to me literally speaking to me. I had a mini fangirl session before I snapped out of it and answered him back, "A friend asked, and I agree, so that's why I'm here" I smiled at him. "Nice costume" my cheek heated up realizing he was looking at me, "I'm Ellie Woods, from legally blonde" I replied, "-And your ghostface, nice" I looked at him, "So..where's your mask?" I tilted my head, "On my belt, just in case" His smile made me have chills down my core.
He looked perfect even in the hot, sweaty environment we were in. I wanted to do something, but I couldn't even do anything. I felt my core getting hotter and my legs getting stickier.
"What's your name?" He asked, "Y/N and I already know you, your Luke right?" I hoped to not sound creepy, that I already knew him. "Yeah, how did you know that?"
"Your really well known, I guess I just picked up on you. You do know your are really easy on the eyes" I tried to flirt with him.
"Hey!" I looked at him, as the bartender came to him, as he ordered something, "Two shots of tequila" Before the bartender poured them out of the clear bottle. As the bartender slid them onto the counter to him, before he offered one to you. "Shots?" He asked, "Hell yeah" I took the shot and gulped it down, as the liquid burned down my throat to my chest, "Fuck that's strong" I heard him groaning out, it made me feel hot. But you knew that you couldn't do it at all, he had a girlfriend.
You weren't an asshole to break up someone's relationship for something petty like a sexual conquest. "Um, why did you really come here to talk to me.." I spoke out, biting my lip. "I thought you were cute" My heart started beating up faster, "Don't you have a girlfriend?" I bit my lip, "Oh, me and Cate..we broke up, she cheated on me with my best friend, pretty shitty isn't it?" He sipped more of the drink, he ordered in his glass cup. "Oh, gosh...I'm so sorry" That was a pretty shitty way to get broken up with, but at least I didn't have the guilt of being a home wrecker.
"I know," He said, rubbing his temples. The scene was awkward, I didn't want to pity him any further, but I was oddly turned on by this. But you didn't want to throw an opportunity away. It would be one in a chance.
"Do you want to feel better, I know a way" I placed his hand on his upper knee, tilting my head, suggestively. I guessed he got the message before I took his hand, and followed me into a random room. I really didn't know my way through the house but I was able to find a free room.
I pushed him onto the bed. I closed the door behind me, before getting on top of him, hooking my hands on his shoulder, and placing my lips on him. I felt his hands on my side, moving lower down to dangerous parts of me. Grinding down on his growing erection, Withdrawing away from the kiss. "Woah" I smiled at his reaction, "How was it" I cocked my head at him, rubbing down at him.
"That was fucking awesome" I pinched his cheek, "Your adorable" I smirk. He rubbed my ass down to my upper thighs. I felt his hands warming up under my tights.
I took my hands off of his shoulder, before losing off the corset that held me in its confined. I felt relief from taking it off, throwing my corset top somewhere else. His eyes darted to my chest, "Like them?" pressing them together, I felt myself getting wetter as he looked at me. Before I felt him flipping me over, feeling my back hitting the bed. My legs crossed each other as I held them up. I turned my head to the side, looking at him, opening my legs.
"Are you hard right now?" I teased, feeling some heart from his hands, melting away my tights. Before I felt him rip them off my legs. The flimsy fabric was ruined, "You ruined them" I faked my sad expression, "I'll replace them" he rubbed the upper parts of my thighs, taking my panties off of me. His hands stretch the lips of cunt, making me moan out. "S-stop, it's embarrassing" I turned my head away from the scene, "Fuck your soaked" He spread me apart, and his fingers slid into me, moaning on impact.
My legs trembling from the intrusion. His fingers curled into me, making me bend back, my hands gripping the sheets, his fingers thrusting into me in a rough motion, "FUCK!" I cried, my chest rising up and down. "Your sensitive, aren't you" He was staring at me, analyzing what I did, making me squeeze down on his finger, making him groan, "Shit, I'm sorry" Before he took his fingers, some clear slick. He licked his fingers clean, I didn't know if this was even real. Luke Riordan literally fingering me and licking my juices. I propped myself on my elbows before looking up at Luke taking off his pants.
His dick leaning onto his stomach, standing up. "Holy Shit" I muttered, it had a red tip and pre-cum leaking out of the tip, and it was bigger than you thought. I felt his hand on my ankle dragging me onto the edge of the bed, spreading my legs apart. "L-luke" I moaned, He had a condom in his hand, taking it out of the golden package, "W-wait, let me put it on" He placed it in my hand. I place it on my lips before taking the shaft and using my mouth to put the condom on.
I leaned back putting my legs up, as he put his hand on my thighs and slid himself into me, I moaned out. His dick abusing my cunt. Tightening against his cock. I heard him groan, The friction made me feel wetter. His hand on my waist, his dick stuffing me full, his hips snapping into me. His hands cupped my chest, playing with them. I felt his mouth on my peaks, making me bend. "Luke" I moaned.
I turned my head to the side, flickering my eyes away from him. My chest heaving, my body is feeling hot, and feeling sticker. I felt his hand roaming on my body, flicking my nipples, making me shiver in pleasure. His hands moved my body to the side, as he lifted my legs onto his shoulder, thrusting into me. Feeling him reaching a deep side of me, I flickered my eyes at him. I felt my abdomen feeling hot and bubbling, tightening against him before he groaned. "Luke..I'm close" I wailed, "Fuck, I'm close too" He rubbed my waist, making me mewl out.
I felt a wave crash down on my body, as I moaned out, gripping down on the sheets. His pace slowed down as he plunged into me, making me twitch. His pelvis collided with mine, as he thrust in, before releasing his load. Before he pulled out of me, before typing it up and throwing away the used condoms.
I was tired and sweaty. I put my hand over my eyes, trying to hide from him. I really didn't realize that it really did happen. Having sex with Luke actually did happen.
Leaning up on your elbows, "You okay" I turned my head at Luke, sitting on the side of the bed. He was still half naked, "Yeah.." I laid back down, "Could I hug you?" He asked, "Um, sure.." I felt the bed dip as he crawled towards me and his arms around my waist, leading to the side of my stomach. It was a little awkward but wholesome, I didn't know what to do but I rubbed his head. It lasted for a few minutes before I closed my eyes and slept off.

gen v fic(s) ?? (mostly jordan tbh)
the lack of gen v fanfics is actually a crime so i am here to change that. i have a lot of ideas, and thought i could share them here to see if anyone would be interested in any of them.
— SECOND CHANCES (jordan li fic)
Nova Woods' body is made of mistakes and regrets more than flesh and bone.
Ambition is her second name and betrayal is her God.
Not that Jordan Li knew this when they started dating her. No, what Jordan knew was the girl who always wore pink even though people made fun of her, and who brought them a cup of coffee and a sandwich because she knew they tend to skip breakfasts.
Nova Woods was Jordan Li's safe place. Tender touches and soft kisses, the emphatic look in her eyes that made them melt as if she was the sun and they were Icarus' wings, and praises spilling from her lips like sweet honey that they so needed.
Until they learned what kind of a monster was under the masks she was wearing.
The only reason Nova was with them was to get into the top ten on the list.
Nothing about her was real. She was just a perfectly sculpted illusion, showing them what they wanted to see. And Jordan was a fool, who opened their hearts and showed her their most vulnerable parts.
Nova knows she fucked up. She knows that. And she is ready to do whatever is necessary to win them back. She no longer cares about the list - she never actually did; it was her parents' ambitions pressed upon her and she was just a puppet whose strings were in their hands.
Jordan Li does not believe in second chances. But Nova Woods is ready to change their mind.
(I have not yet come up with Nova's powers, super healing for plot armor ofc but maybe animal control or plant control - something that will not overpower her.)
— LAMB TO A SLAUGHTER
Samantha Riordan is nothing if not her twin brother Luke's shadow. He is the Golden Boy, the sun seems to favor him as he bathes in its light while she is just Luke's little sister (despite being two fucking minutes older than him) resting on the shadow he has created for her. She watches her brother wear the crown of glory all the while she seems to have very similar powers to his but never makes it to even the top ten on the list.
Even her name does not just belong to her. Their younger brother was named Sam, which was the nickname she went by. Emphasis on the past tense because her younger brother has killed himself so her fucking name became a taboo in her own house.
It is like the universe and everyone around her acts like her actual ability is being invisible.
That is until her twin brother blows himself up and all the spotlight falls upon her.
Love Interest(s): Jordan Li (main) & Marie Moreau (not poly)
— THE FALL FROM EDEN
tw: homophobia, religious parents/guilt
Eden Rivers cannot stress this enough: just because she kissed a girl one time (okay, maybe three times) does not mean she is bisexual. She likes boys. She is straight. She is normal. She is the way her God wants her to be.
Her knees have bruises due to kneeling on the ground and her throat burns and aches for uttering prayers for hours and asking for forgiveness from God.
Again, her mother says, ignoring the tears that stain Eden's cheeks. She feels no pity toward Eden, she sees no daughter or a teenage girl. She only sees an abomination and is blinded by disgust and hatred.
There is something terribly wrong with Eden: she kissed another girl.
Eden does not argue or fight back. She continues praying and, crying, regretting and hating herself.
Then, she wipes off her tears and cleans the blood on her knees to go back to her job as if nothing happened.
Luke Riordan sees right through his assistant but does not force her to speak. He knows how her parents are and just reminds her that she will always have a place in his house if she ever needs it.
Then, he kills himself.
And Eden is starting to question her God.
Then, she meets Jordan Li — he, no wait, she, but then it is a he again and Eden cannot understand anything. Bi-gender, others explain to her and suggest her to use they/them for Jordan.
Eden needs to know why Luke, a human form of sunshine, decided to blow himself up. Because if she cannot find a reason, it means her God has failed her.
And she has to work with Jordan, whose both forms make Eden forget that her God is watching her, reading her not-so-pure thoughts.
But when Jordan is around, Eden's God does not exist.
And she no longer puts meaning into her prayers - not after kissing them.
She does not regret kissing them. She only regrets not doing it before.
(i am actually v proud of this idea because a lot of people have to hide or fight back their sexuality due to the pressure of their parents and norms placed into their heads. gen v is not just a show about superpowers or heroes/villains, it is also about discovering your real identity and finding who you really are and i feel like this fic would be focusing on both identity search and fun superpower parts.)
— BLOOD & GUTS
In a world full of Supes, being a seer is lame, Isabel Quinn knows. She also knows how fucking pathetic it is to have a girlfriend who can manipulate blood when she faints at the sight of blood.
Isabel does not think she belongs at Godolkin University but she follows her girlfriend Marie Moreau there. She assures herself that everything will be alright if they keep a low profile - but then Marie wants to go out with the "cool" Supes and drags Isabel with her.
And then there is a woman with a split neck in the middle of the club they go to. And the crimson river is all Isabel can see. So much fucking blood and Isabel's vision goes black.
She wakes up in Andre Anderson's bed - the guy who is responsible for almost killing the woman in the club- and learns they left her fucking girlfriend responsible for it and tries to get away from him.
Andre - a hypocrite, hero-wannabe in Isabel's opinion- pulls a cliche when he grabs her wrist in the middle of the yard to justify his actions but then the Golden Boy chases her girlfriend and flies to the sky.
And there is blood again. Everywhere.
Fainting once again and this time waking up with a worried Marie hovering over her, Isabel says a dumb thing. A very dumb and unforgivable thing.
Isabel loses the only reason she came to that university: her girlfriend.
But while Isabel is running after Marie to regain her love, Andre Anderson seems like a tail on her back, desperate to prove to her that he is a good guy.
love interest(s): Marie Moreau & Andre Anderson (love triangle, andre as main love interest)
— KISS & KILL
Camila Dunlap sometimes pretends like the white ceiling above her is actually a bright blue sky that stretches to freedom and the chains on her hands are actually her sister Cate's warm hands.
She is tired of looking at the trees and being trapped inside of a room.
She is tired of waiting for her sister to save her.
Sometimes they let her see Cate. But Camila knows Cate has to do things for them. Bad things, her older sister mumbles when asked, terrible things.
At least, she talks with the guy in the next room through Morse code. Sam is his name, a funny guy who often jokes about how she is not actually real. Communicating with him keeps her remaining sanity.
Until one day, when Sam does more than keep her sane, and actually helps her out of the Woods with the help of a very tiny girl.
But it is never over.
Cate tells her that if she truly wants to be free, she has to do whatever they say. She has to turn Sam in and betray the people who have saved her.
Betrayal has always been a part of love for Dunlap sisters, who can play with the strings of someone's mind as if they were those of a violin.
(as you can see, i don't like sticking to canon so this is based on the theory that cate is a double agent. i am not sure about sam's age but he'll be aged up.)
i think this is it for now. don't question why the summaries are way too long, i tend to do that. i'd appreciate if you stated which one(s) you are interested!
thanks so much for reading this!

Before Percy Jackson ever stepped foot into Camp Half-Blood, there was Cameron Allen, a demigod who once asked to be written out of history. She's a daughter of Nike, who has terrible impulsive control when she's challenged, and she never backs down. She'd watch the world burn for the ones she loves most.
Cameron arrives at camp three (3) years before Percy gets there. She's made friends with Luke, Annabeth, Connor and Travis Stoll and a few other demigods. She's even got a couple of rivals. One of them being Clarisse La Rue.
During her first session, Cameron has an awful dream, that leads to her getting her prophecy. When she gets her prophecy, she's not too happy with it, and starts to become anxious, and very worried while she's at home.
This story will follow the PJO series, and you'll get to see moments that not even Percy got to see when dreaming of the enemies. Kronos’s Army will be dove deeper into, and more of a picture on the enemy lines, will be painted.
The fanfic can be found in the link below, so far Chapters 1-10 has been uploaded!

"How Did I Fall In Love With Percico?"
I must admit that the battle was intense.
When I first joined the world of Percy Jackson in 2015, I had no idea what I was getting into.
Actually, I had no idea of anything... anything at all.
Only one thing was clear.
Nico di Angelo.
This character was introduced to me in a fanfic of a niece of mine. She asked me to read her fanfic, and I just did.
It was a [Percy Jackson x Reader], but contrary to what the fanfic says and the feelings of the protagonist, I ended up getting interested on Nico di Angelo.
He was like a crush. At that point he was introduced to me as the typical bad emo boy (which I really didn't like very much), but that character had something, and when I'm curious, I look for information.
Obviously I read every word of the Nico di Angelo Wikia, and since at that moment the "Blood of Olympus" had barely come out, the Solangelo didn´t exist, practically.
Was I disappointed? Yes. I must admit that I was disappointed to read this character that had struck me was “gay” and, apart, he was in love with the protagonist.
I was hiding in the stupid reason that it was just admiration, as most of the fandom put it on fanfics for Nico to surpass Percy.
So I gave myself the task of buying the first book, "The Lightning Thief", just for Nico di Angelo.
And why deny it, because of the bad adaptations too, which at the time I liked.
I was 12 years old at the time, and being the first book I read for my own interest, I began to idolize Rick Riordan for being so hooked on his books. I was so hooked on the narrative, the world, and the characters that he made me hopelessly a reader.
By idolizing Rick Riordan for opening up so many possibilities that reading books gave me, I also began to idolize his beliefs, and consequently, in the first book I fell in love with the Percabeth.
Percabeth was my life back then.
Annabeth, the strong, determined girl, who ran away from her family when she was 7 years old, fighting for her freedom (or at least in my 12-year-old mind). And Percy Jackson, that kid hurt by his stepfather, sarcastic and kind of mature boy.
They were THE COUPLE.
I continued to ship them in later books.
"The Titan's Curse" arrived. I already knew that Bianca was going to die, I already knew the whole story of Nico. But even so, reading every page where he came out was a delight. It was more intense, it penetrated you deeper, you could see things that you couldn't appreciate by reading the wikia.
I didn't give too much importance to Nico. Yes, he was still my favorite character, but I wanted to see the Percabeth develop.
"The Titan's Curse" happened, "The Battle of the Labyrinth" too, and I didn't really take into account the scenes where Nico and Percy were together, I just liked to appreciate the moments where Nico used his powers, became strong or showed that personality that I loved, since I was expecting more than anything the Percy and Annabeth scenes.
I didn't like Rachel very much, I didn't like Luke, I didn't like Calypso ... Simply because they got in the way of my ship (I was wrong, and now I know it). With Nico, I just didn't love that he had a crush on Percy, but I still loved the character. I knew for the wikia, that Percy and Nico weren't going to end up together anyway. I knew that in the end, the one who would triumph was going to be the Percabeth. And I was waiting for it.
The Percico's Fire escape scene happened in the last chapter of "The Battle of the Labyrinth", I treasured that scene in my heart more than anything for being a moment where you can see a Nico who lost his innocence too quickly, but still he wants to savor the world around him. But the Percico in that book was totally overshadowed for the Percabeth's first kiss. I was totally eclipsed.
And in the end I came to "The Last Olympian".
It hurt me that Nico cheated on Percy. At that moment I couldn't see anything of the background of his intentions. I was really blind.
Luke died, and what I had been waiting for five books happened.
The Percabeth kiss under the water. I liked? Yes, at the time I fangirled quite a bit, I was happy and it made my day.
At this point I was 13 years old.
The second saga arrived. "The Son of Neptune" arrived. Nico di Angelo came out not telling Percy his true identity. I was confused. Percy remembered Annabeth and I calmed down awaiting their reunion.
The reunion came and I felt happy, but not excited. The new characters had overshadowed it a bit.
I was more confused not seeing Nico in most of the chapters. I found out that he passed Tartarus alone, yes, I found out that he was locked in a jar in a half-dead state, yes. But I didn´t take the importance that it deserved.
I was angered to see Percy's indifference towards Nico. And at the time I thought I was angry because Nico was my favorite character.
I was wrong.
Percy and Annabeth fell into Tartarus, and while I liked that the golden couple survived that hell together, with their love, it really didn't feel as good as I thought. I started to lose interest a little. The way they related was no different than when they're friends (You know, Annabeth insulting and making Percy nervous, out of character narratives and stuff), just a few cheesy moments here and there. Still, I followed the ship on the journey through Tartarus.
Until Bob.
Bob, the titan Iapetus who told them in Tartarus that Nico had sent him to save Percy. That part where Percy realizes that he must have been a best friend to Nico, in that moment where Percy realizes, dying, that Nico was stronger than he thought.
You don't know how much that thought moved me, but even so, I continued with Percabeth, simply with the new thought that Percy should take more importance on Nico, because, for the gods, he was NICO DI ANGELO, the son of Hades, the Ghost King. He was my dream character, and with whom, without knowing it, years later I would identify.
The moment that changed everything arrived.
The Cupid scene in the "House of Hades" book.
I already knew that that was the moment where Nico confessed that he was in love with Percy. I knew it from the first book, even before. But it was very different to know it than to read it in great detail.
“I had a crush on Percy. That´s the truth. That´s the big secret.”
In that scene, I felt a lump in my stomach. It was a strange emotion and in a way unpleasant and pleasant at the same time. I was excited to know that I had reached the peak of the character, but really outside of that I didn´t take much importance, because... Please, WHAT ABOUT THE PERCABETH?
Still, inside of me I felt a curiosity to know more about Nico's feelings. I felt like something had fallen into place, but I didn't know what.
At that time I was 14 years old.
The end of the second saga came and Will Solace arrived.
I felt even more confused and upset. I, who had already accepted the knowledge that Nico loved Percy, felt betrayed to see how in a couple of pages Nico had a crush for Will.
How was it possible? What was the reason?
It was sudden, it was rude. I felt a knot in my stomach. I didn't have time to process it when the Solangelo was slapped on my face across a couple of pages.
I kept reading and the most controversial scene arrived.
"I see that you´re cute, but you´re not my type"
I honestly felt like something didn't add up. I felt more confused. I knew the consequences of an unrequited love, I knew the pain and feelings that a person has when falling in love for the first time, and the way in which Rick treated the end of that infatuation wasn't feel natural. Although I didn't think about it much at the time, my subconscious knew that wasn´t natural.
And I felt worse when I found out that Percy and Annabeth had a vision to move to New Rome for college after finishing their last year of high school.
I felt as if the characters were slipping through my hands. Growing up too fast and letting things slide when I wasn't ready to face it yet.
The second saga felt confused, and I had unpleasant feelings hanging around. Loose ends that my brain couldn't spin.
Something was wrong apart from that strange ending, and I was felt it, but I didn't know what. I felt there was something else that I was missing about the two of them. But, I didn´t take much importance because of:
The Percabeth.
I was in love with Nico di Angelo, not with Percy Jackson.
At this point I was near to my 15th birthday.
I tried to hold on a little to the Nico that I knew, not that strange boy who fell in love with Will Solace.
So, I read some old Nico di Angelo fanfictions, and why deny it, some Percico fanfics too.
I liked? Yes, I must admit that it had something, although I didn´t understand why yet. Still, I continued to ship Percabeth.
The curiosity for the Percico was very big, and little by little I began to like it more. The dynamics seemed interesting to me. But still, I didn't understand many things.
I had my small Percico phase in 2017. And after that, I left the fandom after reading "The Hidden Oracle". I found it funny, yes, but it didn't feel the same anymore. That emotion that put Rick in the first saga and part of the second had been extinguished.
Everything was different. It felt drier, strained, broken. I didn´t like it. It was disappointing.
2020 came, and the pandemic arrived.
At this point I was 17 years old and less than three months away from leaving high school.
In those almost 3 years of taking a break from Rick Riordan, I had become interested in other things. Shingeki no Kyojin, Supernatural, The Maze Runner, Death Note, X-Men, and another small phase of the many I had of Harry Potter. I had many stages in those three years.
I grew older, I saw more things and I understand better some circumstances.
In my last days of high school, before the online classes, I met a boy very much like Nico. Very similar. I looked at him and I smiled. I remembered my time when Nico di Angelo was my favorite character.
Remembering what Riordan had done for me by publishing the Percy Jackson books.
Rick Riordan, whether he wanted to or not, he changed my life. He made me be a different person, and I liked the direction.
The end of 2020 came and I was already 18 years old. The online classes had already started and I had already started my first semester of the university.
The December 2020 holidays arrived, and my favorite series at the time called Supernatural ended in a painful way.
How is it possible that Dean and Castiel didn't end up together? Castiel loved Dean. He was the most important person to him. He sacrificed himself because he love him. Why did they both have to die?
Their background was beautiful, tragic, although it wasn't explicitly seen it, it was there, waiting to see who saw how beautiful the feelings they had for each other.
I felt bad and desolate. The pandemic was affecting me more than I had thought.
I wasn't a sociable person, but being indoors all the time was frustrating.
I remembered the time when I was happier, the time when I could go out with friends, where I could appreciate my crush from afar knowing that he would never reciprocate, but I was fine with it. And... there he was again.
Nico di Angelo.
Again the character appeared in my head. And, with the new vision that I had, after 6 years of having fallen in love with Nico the first time, I was now ready to analyze, to really know what was wrong three years ago. I read "The Trials of Apollo". I didn't like it. It was unpleasant. The only character I was there for was Nico, but even so, the Nico that Rick introduced to me, was different, it was everything I didn't remember about Nico.
I didn't like where Rick had led things.
I was frustrated.
I was about to give up, but...
Percico
I remembered the name of the ship and the nice feeling that had hit me years ago, so I started reading percico fics on Wattpad, just for entertainment, and although I really liked them, something was missing, again.
An English fanfic appeared in AO3 called "What Happened in Venice?" By MidnightinJapan.
The characters were so canon, they're how I remembered them, and the way Nico and Percy fit together was really beautiful. Their personalities complemented each other in a unique way.
I fell in love, honestly.
I started researching, analyzing, rereading the books of Riordan. I began to realize many things that I hadn't noticed, both about the Percico and the Percabeth.
Scenes came to my mind where Percy and Nico had been together. The fire escape moment, the dinner with the goddess Hestia, the Percy's birthday night, their promises, their trips to the underworld, their battles, their conversations, their thoughts, what they longed to say to each other, and that thing that had been bothering me for years had finally fallen into place.
In that moment, I realized, I had been wrong for years. At this point I realized that his feelings about Percy are actually too deep, in fact. It isn't just admiration, It isn't just a crush. No! Nico fell deeply in love with Percy, and he yells it in every action he does. And I didn't realize the depth of this until almost 6 years later!
My gods.
The fluff and pretty feelings I had felt with the Percabeth had no chance against the strong overwhelming, passionate and tragic feeling of love in the Percico.
It felt so pure, so sincere, so deep, so developed without falling into the cliche.
Percico was perfect.
My perception had changed in those years, and I realized that I had done wrong to idolize Rick Riordan the way I did, because in my point of view he has made many mistakes.
Percico became my OTP right away. And I remembered that 3 years ago I had liked it. My subconscious had tried to tell me, but I ignored it!
I started looking for fanarts on Pinterest, on Twitter, wherever I could be found. And that's where everything went wrong.
I rejoined the Percy Jackson fandom and realized that the fandom had changed. Everything had changed.
The Solangelo and Percabeth shippers had gone toxic. The Percico had almost disappeared. Hatred was sinking the ship. And I got mad. I got very angry. I tried to contain myself as much as I could, but after almost 6 months of enduring the hatred thrown at my ship, I had to do something about it. I created my Percico accounts. I tried to put a stop to the hatred even though it was impossible. I'm really trying to get out.
In my head there was no room for them to send Percico so much hatred if it was the best ship for me.
I had my Percabeth phase, I understood how eclipsing they could be, but I, who had already been in the fandom for these years, understood things better and now I am determined not to give up.
I'm not going to let the Percico sink.

For the fanfic ask game: J (for MPD), K, M, and R :)
J: Write or describe an alternative ending to Missing and Presumed Dead
I actually originally meant to end it shortly after Luke gets rescued. He's recovering, he's happy with his dad, Leia is tentatively willing to work with Vader to overthrow the Empire as long as the Rebels get a seat at the table in the formation of the aftermath, and Vader decides he cares more about his kids than the Empire, so he's willing to do whatever necessary to make them happy and healthy. But then I realized I'd set up the breadcrumbs to continue that plotline (with a LOT more messiness) that still fit the "Luke pretending to be dead" thing. Originally the Alliance would have known Luke was alive, too, much earlier than they did. I think my current ending is much better, though it meant more hard work.
K: What’s the angstiest idea you’ve ever come up with?
Ok. So this wasn't technically fanfiction. This was a roleplay I did with a friend for years. In it, my main character has like a family with a bunch of young kids. He ends up sacrificing himself to save one of them, but then when his family strikes a bargain to bring him back, he ends up bring brought back as a baby. This was great for my main characters dad, because he never got to raise his son (long story), so he got a chance to raise him, but his wife and kids were forced to watch their dad grow up. Part of the deal was also that they couldn't tell their dad that he was their dad until he was an adult, and by the time their dad was an adult, (this family became immortal at a certain age, kinda like a fey, it's again, a long story) he got his prior memories back, and had to deal with trauma of being there, but not being able to BE there, of putting his wife in a situation where she was forced to fend for herself and their kids, and oh, all of his now adult kids have trauma and some of them really don't trust forming a relationship with him again, and they're also adults and he struggles with coming to terms with matching who they are in his brain with who they are now. He basically had to refind himself while also bridging his new self with his old self and that ended up being far more complicated and traumatic than I thought when I started that plot line. Otherwise, Fracture is up there for sure. That fic is dark as hell, but I thought I'd give an idea I know you haven't read and will never read :P
M: Got any premises on the back burner that you’d care to share?
I've shared some before, but...hm. Now that DVGTT is wrapping up, I'm thinking about new crack stories to do. There's Luke becoming an actual drug dealer to be like his dad, only for his dad to find out and do Canadian-worthy PSA ads to try to get his son to stop meanwhile Luke is like "wow these ads are getting so specific lol (sells more drugs)". There's a podcasting AU, or like. Space twitch streaming AU, maybe. Idk, we'll see what happens! (I'm also super open to suggestions, I'm pretty chill when it comes to crack fics).
R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?
You and @azalea-scroggs inspired me to do Dad Vader fanfic. @kittandchips, @silvereddaye, @maedre13 and queenslx99 were massive influences, as well once I started writing. As for non-fanfic authors... so, when I was a kid, I loved Meg Cabot. I loved her sass. I was influenced to write by Final Fantasy 10, but Meg Cabot was the first author I tried to be like. Then, later, Cinda Williams Chima, and I also really loved Rick Riordan even though I was above his age group by the time I read the Percy Jackson series, but I loved how he made mythology so accessible to a younger audience and as a writer, that fascinated me (unfortunately his website is full of QA's geared towards kids, and not really writing-craft related, but I'd still love to pick his brain about that). I also love the way Sarah J Maas writes, and I identify heavily with her writing process, but lately I've struggled to read her stuff for various reasons. Also, Natsuko Ishikawa is probably my current influence, and you'd only know who she is if you played FF14 and got to the Shadowbringers and Endwalker expansions. Trust me, she's brilliant.
Thanks for the ask, my friend!

Percy Jackson: The Full Circle (discontinued)
Part 1
Part 2
Part 3: All hail Aroha Malachi
Summary: Percy thought that he’d already learnt what loss was. But then he lost Annabeth. Perhaps it shouldn’t have thrown him off the edge, perhaps he should’ve moved on. But how could he ever?
The gods took everything away from the demigods. Treated them like scum and never batted an eye at their sufferings. Now he understood what Luke felt except now, if another Olympian should interfere, he’ll tear the place down himself- brick by brick.
Warning: This is a dark story. Percy is, in a way, the villain. Certain topics are sensitive, so if you feel uncomfortably by angst and pain or find it triggering, I suggest you avoid the story for your own sake and mine as well.
Pairings: There’s no exact pairing, but I’m thinking of a slow burn Jercy (Jason x Percy). Again, if you are uncomfortable or even slightly homophobic, you can skip this fic.
Age: 15+ ( contains swearing)
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson nor do I own any related characters. All of them belong to Rick Riordan. I only own the writing.
************
Aroha walked alongside a boy named Nico Di Angelo. He had jet black hair and a skull ring on his finger. Most of the time, he seemed to be lost in thought; and barely paying attention to her as he gave her a tour of the camp.
But she knew that wasn’t the case. He was very much observing her. Constantly checking if she was keeping up and whether the new information was too much for her. Honestly, even she wasn’t sure how she was to take it all in.
Nico had exchanged words with Jason. It was a brief but warm conversation; like that of two brothers. Aroha understood from the exchange that their friendships had deeper roots than most. The trust between them was almost startling, she could never imagine herself having so much faith in a person other than herself, even with Hyacinth.
No no she couldn’t even have that much faith in her parents- her own flesh and blood. How could anyone else understand?
His gaze lingered at the entrance of the Infirmary for a few seconds longer than Aroha expected; his posture relaxing ever so slightly.
“Does your boyfriend stay there?”
Nico whipped his head about, narrowing his eyes, “so you’re nosy?” There was no malice in his tone, just an odd tough guy bravado.
“Does he?”
He sighed, his lips quirking into an almost invisible smile, his gaze softening, “yes. Now please, no more nosy questions.”
“I just observe; i don’t really have many friends.”
Aroha mumbled, so softly that even the trees would have needed to strain to hear her. She stared down at her feet for, suddenly finding them really interesting.
You just had to go there didn’t you Malachi?
“Well,” Nico began hesitantly, “I’ll be your new friend now then.” A more visible smile on his face. And he didn’t look as scary as he did before.
“This is the Hermes Cabin, it’s where unclaimed children stay temporarily, until they’re claimed,” he said, pointing towards a large cabin, it’s walls looked the most worn-out out of all the cabins. But it also provided a homely and welcoming ambiance.
“Do you think my mom will claim me soon?”
He looked at her for a moment, and she wondered if the question was extremely stupid.
“She’ll have to. Because the gods promised they would.”
A blonde boy jogged over to them from the Infirmary and from the fleeting look of a lovestruck boy, Aroha knew exactly who he was
The boyfriend.
He looked at her and grinned, “hi! You must be the new camper. I’m Will Solace, from Cabin Seven, the-”
“-Apollo Cabin,” she finished, before cringing, “sorry, I interrupted.”
“It’s fine, it means you’re catching on quickly,” Will winked at Nico, who, uncharacteristically, blushed three shades of red, “hey honey,”
“Don’t call me that Solace.”
“You love it.”
“I really don’t.”
Will was unnaturally calming, it almost gave her the feeling of having every trouble seemingly disappear.
“You can get settled in now and by then it’ll be time for dinner,” Will said.
Nico nudged her side,” you’ll probably get claimed then.”
A tall boy with a brown mop of hair and blue eyes greeted them at the entrance of the Cabin; a lazy grin on his face and sparkling mischief in his expression.
“Hey, I’m Connor, Connor Stoll.”
“Might want to be careful with him Aroha, Connor can steal anything.”
“My days of thieving have passed Solace, I have to make sure somebody carries on this beautiful work,” he grinned, shooting a playful wink at her.
Aroha was liking this guy more and more by each second.
“Wait. Your name is Stoll...and you steal. How ironic.”
Nico snickered. But Connor shook his head seriously, “Jackson said something similar a while ago, except he made no sense. C’mon in, I’ll free you from the clutches of these two.”
The Hermes Cabin had brown walls which looked weathered and worn but it just made it look more homely. The inside was a large, spacious area with multiple bunks.
Connor grinned as he pointed at one empty bunk at the far end of the room.
"since demigods get claimed much faster, there's more space available and you won't need to sleep on the floor."
The bed was pretty comfortable in her opinion. A bag filled with toiletries was placed on top of it.
"these won't have itching powder or colour that'll make my teeth blue right?" She asked, pointing at the bag.
"well, there shouldn't be, but I'd be cautious if I were you." Connor replied, "now hurry and wash up, dinner's gonna be in another half hour."
And in exactly half an hour the conch shell blew.
The loud chatter and clangs of forks and spoons against the plates echoed through the air.
But before she could even take a seat at the tables, a bright symbol flashed above her head. It was a hologram of a beautiful owl and an olive branch. There were some mumbles and gasps. “We are so screwed,” a camper said. Even Chiron, the centaur pursed his lips before declaring,
“All hail Aroha Malachi, daughter of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and warfare.”
********
A/N- right, so I've been extremely busy for the past so many months and well if you are even slightly interested in this fic, I apologise for the inconveniences.
Anyway, hopefully next chapter is in Percy's pov, n you get to see what exactly happened at dinner after meeting Athena and what he was ranting about.

rereading the PJO and HoO - part one: the lightning thief
before i start, all italicized parts are from the lightning thief by rick riordan. they're not my words and these are not my characters. my thoughts are the only thing that are mine :)
• "mom, you're coming too." her face was pale, her eyes as sad as when she looked at the ocean. "no!" i shouted, you are coming with me. help me carry grover". - the first(ish) appearance of percy's fatal flaw! i love the early establisment, especially because it helps foreshadow to the sea of monsters when fatal flaws are formally introduced.
• "that's -" "pasiphae's son," my mother said. "i wish i'd known how badly they wanted to kill you." - sally is underappreciated. she's smart as hell and clearly took the time to research demigods. yes, she was a little bit selfish with keeping percy out of the loop and not sending him to camp. but can you blame her? she lost all of her family and if she sent percy to CHB at an early age, that most nearly means she won't see him often (he'll attract monsters because he's aware of his status as a demigod and will most likely be at camp full-time). but sally ensured that she knew enough about the demigod world to protect percy because she knew that her selfishness would come with consequences. best mom.
• i was crying, calling for my mother, but i held on to grover - i wasn't going to let him go. - percy's first loss as a demigod and i am broken. honestly, so sad to think of, especially knowing all the losses he'll face in the future books. this line is also his fatal flaw showing once again (refer to first bulletpoint)
• "it (america) is the great power of the west. and so olympus is here. and we are here." - if olympus follows the west, where would the next location be? obviously, america is still a big powerhouse in terms of western civilization but that's not going to last. my bet is south korea but who knows? would love a fanfic on this tbh
• "the truth is, i can't be dead. you see, eons ago the gods granted my wish. i could continue the work i loved. i could be a teacher of heroes as long as humanity needed me. i gained so much from that wish... and i gave up so much. but i'm still here, so i can only assume i'm still needed." - how will it be decided that he's not needed? honestly, can't imagine CHB without him but chiron also deserves retirement
• i started to understand luke's bitterness and how he seemed to resent his father, hermes so okay, maybe gods had important things to do. but couldn't they call once in a while, or thunder or something? - percy has always showed some hesitance when accepting the demigod world, so i wasn't really surprised to see doubts like this pop up, especially with luke's influence. i'd think most demigods feel this way, luke and percy are just the ones who exhibit it the most in the series. i'm really interested in the parallels between the two and i'm looking forward to reading more and examining them
• "during the winter solstice, at the last council of the gods, zeus and poseidon had an argument. the usual nonsense: 'mother rhea always liked you best', 'air disasters are more spectacular than sea disasters', etc. - despite the fact that the gods are all-powerful beings, i appreciate the petty sibling spats that are mentioned briefly
• "so let me get this straight," i said. "i'm supposed to go to the underworld and confront the world of the dead." "check," chiron said. "find the most powerful weapon in the universe." "check." "and get it back to olympus before the summer solstice in ten days." "that's about right." i looked at grover, who gulped down the ace of heaers. "did i mention that maine is very nice this time of year?" he asked weakly. - this would be perfect for those 30 second trailers
• "gee," i said feigning surprise. "who else would be stupid enough to volunteer for a q uest like this?" the air shimmered behind chiron. annabeth became visible, stuffing her yankees cap into her back pocket. - the way he knows her pretty well already, i-
• the truth was, i didn't care about retrieving zeus' lightning bolt, or saving the world, or even helping my father out of trouble. - early on, we see from the get go that percy has a dislike for the gods. it's small mentions like this that really gets me thinking. he never really showed any dislike of the gods when he first arrived at camp (understandable) but he was hopeful for his father. it wasn't until luke planted the seed into his head that these thoughts came to light. i love this little detail, especially as we know that towards the end, luke does seem to think he can turn percy against the gods. his plan backfired a little bit on him in the end but like i said before, the parallels between luke and percy are so glaring. riordan definitely thought it out extensively
• do not be a pawn of the olympians, my dear. you would be better off as a statue - this is said to percy by medusa and again, feeds into his dislike of the gods. i wonder if monsters have some opinion on this. most would probably hate the gods but i wonder what their stance is on demigods. we know that they work with them (see kronos' army). the real enemy for monsters are the gods, the demigods killing them are just pawns to the gods so maybe that's how some monsters see them
• "so, what's your status?" luke asked me. "chiron will be sorry he missed you." i told him pretty much everything, including my dreams. it felt so good to see him, to feel like i was back at camp even for a few minutes, that i didn't even realize how long i had talked to him until the beeper went off on the spray machine. - there's no doubt that percy really considered luke a friend. he wasn't hesitant to tell luke about his dreams, something that he didn't share with annabeth or grover until later on the book. luke was a sort of mentor to percy and it was conveyed pretty well through their interactions, which makes his betrayal even more heartbreaking
• "you think you'll ever try living with your dad again?" she wouldn't meet my eyes. "please. i'm not into self-inflicted pain." - my heart breaks for annabeth and her relationship with her father. i've read most of the riordanverse books and the growth in annabeth's relationship with her family is definitely something i'm looking forward to watch grow as i make my way through the books again
• i looked over at the desk and saw a girl sitting there, also wearing a straitjacket - so i never paid the dreams any mind but now that i think about it, they're really good for analysis. for example, the straitjacket could mean something like the gods are keeping them restrained. maybe i'm overthinking it or have been analyzing text too much in AP english but i think that the dreams are worth some deeper thinking
• i pretended not to see annabeth wipe a tear from her cheek as she listened to the mournful keening of cerberus in the distance, longing for his new friend - i need to see annabeth play with cerberus again D:
• i turned and faced my mother. i desperately wanted to sacrifice myself and the last pearl on her, but i knew what she would say. she would never allow it. i had to get the bolt back to olympus and tell zeus the truth. i had to stop the war. - percy's growth as a character really shines through here. the lightning thief is a pretty short book and the journey they took was less than 2 weeks but despite that percy's grown immensely as a character. his goal was always to save his mother but in the end, he sacrificed her because he knew it was his duty to save olympus and i respect that
• "you have made an enemy, godling," he told me. "you have sealed your fate. every time you raise your blade in battle, everytime you hope for success, you will feel my curse. beware, perseus jackson. beware." - ares cursed percy to be unsuccesful in battle but does his curse ever take effect? i don't recall any mention of this curse later on the series. obviously, percy is the main character and a really good swordfighter but the curse might have affected some battles right? but then again riordan has a lot of plotholes so i wouldn't put too much thought in it
• i knew dionysus must've filled it out, because he stubbornly insisted on getting my name wrong. - i've always accepted the fact that dionysus called the demigods by their wrong name for humor. but what if it's deeper? what if it's a way to put some space between him and the demigods, just as an extra precaution so he won't get attached. or it could be a ploy to showcase that he's more powerful than them and that they are beneath him, which is why he doesn't need to know their name. i like the former headcanon more though :P
• i opened my eyes. i was propped up in bed in the sickroom of the big house, my right hand bandaged like a club. argus stood guard in the corner. annabeth sat next to me, holding my nectar glass and dabbing a washcloth on my forehead. "here we are again," i said. - the parallel
well, that's everything i had notes on. overall, i liked rereading it. i really do miss this series and i'm finding my love for it be rekindled by rereading. i miss the humor of the early books (i could literally make a whole post of underrated lines). the last time i read the series in its whole was when i was 7 and now that i'm 16, i have more thoughts and can analyze the story better. also loved seeing baby percabeth as they're my OTP. i'm excited to continue with the series. to the sea of monsters!

Reminiscence (Leo X Calypso with Estelle)
A/N: This one is a unique story I thought of after knowing the ToA Spoilers and thought of a good fanfic I will make later. More about that at the end.
Plot:
Estelle Blofis is visiting the Valdez family. In the meantime, she helps out with Leo or Calypso with their work and would also play with the kids. One day, she asked how both Leo and Calypso got together. Calypso reminisce about the time she and Leo met on her island.
Disclaimer: The following is a Non-profit fanbase series. PJO, HOO and TOA are owned by Rick Riordan and Disney Hyperion. Please support the Official Release.
"So, you and Leo been together for a long time, right?" Estelle asked.
Estelle Blofis, half-sister of Percy Jackson, came to visit the Valdez, asking Leo for help on a project she's working on back in New York. Of course, she knows the whole demigod deal from her brother and sister-in-law, Annabeth. So she went to one of the best mechanic she knows.
While Leo was working on her request, Estelle went and help Calypso on her diner; cleaning, taking orders, etc. The diner gotten less busy and gave both Estelle and Calypso time to talk. Thus led to her question.
"We have," Calypso answered. "About some time before you were born."
"That long?"
Calypso nodded.
"We had a rough year after that, but I never regret meeting him. He gave me so much that I don't even know HOW to repay him." Calypso chuckled a bit. "Yet, marrying him, having children and a business together seems to be everything he ever wanted."
Estelle smiled. She always wondered how someone like Leo Valdez was able to get a beautiful girl like Calypso to fall for him. Heck she's not just any girl, she's THE Calypso. The goddess trapped in Ogygia, cursed to fall for every hero. Many would say she's a witch, a seducer, a monster. But you say that to her family (Leo and his friends), they'd make you regret that.
"How did you two meet?" Estelle asked.
Calypso sighed. "Where do I even begin?"
The two sat at the counter bar while Calypso got her thoughts together.
"So you know my story, correct? The whole 'trapped in an island, forever cursed to fall for heroes'?"
Estelle nodded.
"Well, to answer your question. First, you have to know the time I met your brother."
"You met Percy before?!" Estelle asked.
"Yes, I have. And, like every other hero, I had fallen for him."
"Really? Percy? Leo I can understand. But Percy? My bro is a lot of things. A warrior, a family man, a bit funny; but a hero worthy for THE Calypso? I don't think so."
Calypso laughs, Estelle just loves to tease on her brother. But she knows just how big his heart is.
"Anyways," Calypso continues. "Percy was wounded and I healed him. He was scared at first, but eventually relaxed around me. And you know my story, I fell in love and asked him to stay."
"And he reject you?"
Calypso nodded.
"Damn, family thanksgiving must've been awkward for you two."
The Valdez would come and visit The Jackson family household in California for the annual Thanksgiving dinner party.
"It's all water under the bridge, don't forget that we're also the godparents of Luke."
"Oh yeah," Estelle remembers. "I'm glad."
"Yeah; anyways, Percy even manage to make the gods to agree on letting minor gods like me, free. Though, unfortunately, they never got the chance; which led to Leo falling to my island."
Stella laughs. "I'm sorry, falling?"
"Yeah, he LITERALLY fell to my island, crashed on my dinner table and created a huge crater. And boy was I mad with him."
The two laughs at the memory. Suddenly, a young toddler boy walked down the stairs.
"Mommy, daddy said he needs help looking for something."
Calypso sighed. "I'll finish the story later. First, I got to help my husband with his work. Watch over the diner for a bit? Shouldn't be too long."
Estelle nodded. As Calypso leaves to the garage, she looks at the toddler.
"So Jason, how's my favorite little sparky boy doing?"
Jason smiled. "I've been very good at my drawings. Wanna see?"
"Okay, bring them down and we'll see if we can get the customers to love them."
LATER
Leo and Calypso closed their shop for the day and went to the kitchen for family dinner. Zoe also came back from school and was talking about her day nonstop.
"Oh, by the way," Estelled said. "Leo, is it true that you destroyed Calypso's dinner table at her island?"
Leo sighed.
"You're still mad about that?"
"It was a nice dinner table! And you destroyed it!" Calypso yelled.
"And I could've died too!"
"A price I'm willing to make."
Estelle and Calypso laughed.
"What? Was the dinner table THAT important?"
The kids started laughing too and eventually, Leo joined.
"Estelle was asking about how we met," Calypso answered for Leo.
"Ah, well," Leo smirked. "She hated my guts at first, but eventually, I made her fall for me with my good looks and jokes."
Estelle laughed harder.
"Okay, THAT was your best joke."
Everyone except Leo laughed.
After everyone ate their food, they all hang at the living room and just relax.
"Back to the story though," Calypso continued her story.
"Leo crashed on my island and I got mad. And, as always, Leo was being himself and I was very irritated. Especially since it was later after I met Percy. And believe me, I was furious. I thought that Leo was just another joke for the gods. Forcing me to fall in love for someone like Leo."
"Hey!" Leo said as he was playing with Jason while Zoe was doing her homework.
"Oh quiet you," Calypso laughed. "We tried to get the raft to show up so that he can leave. Unfortunately, it never showed."
"Because you had to fall in love, right?"
Calypso nodded.
"At first, we thought that the magic was broken. So I got really mad and stormed out; Leo though, went straight to work and starting build his escape. I did my best to avoid him, but he was just so loud with his workshop. I was yell at him, when I noticed something."
"What?" Estelle asked.
"Leo fixed my fountain, my curtains AND my gardening tools."
"Oh really?"
"Hey! I just love fixing things. I couldn't help myself," Leo interrupted.
"Anyways, I decided to bring some food and clothes to him. And I regretted that day since."
Estelle chuckled. "So that was the moment your life changed."
"It was the start, yeah. Eventually, I started helping Leo with getting resources for him and his trip, help with the wirings and give him clothes and food too. He even joked about us owning a shop together. Eventually, he started making jokes. Terrible jokes by the way."
"Not true, you laughed at them."
"Shut up, Leo!"
Leo smiled while playing with the kids. Zoe was able to finish her homework and joined in on the fun.
"Later on, we were able to finish his navigation device. Afterwards, we had a picnic to celebrate. I asked Leo if it'll work. You know what he said?"
"What?" Estelle asked.
"He said, 'getting out will be easy. But coming back is gonna be tricky'."
"Aww."
"I was shocked when he said that. I tried to deny him and told it was impossible. But Leo..."
She looks at Leo, watching him smiling and laughing while playing with the kids. Their kids.
"Leo was too stubborn to forget me. It was at that moment, the raft arrives."
Estelle was quiet as she continues.
"I told Leo to go and set the navigation. Though I think he was shocked when it arrived. I think he was just as in love as I was. Though, I kept trying to deny it. Anyways, just before Leo left. He said he'll come back, I told him, 'don't give me an empty promise'. And guess what he said. He said, 'well about a full promise'."
Calypso sighed.
"I couldn't take it anymore, so I straight up kissed him. Managing to shut him up, pushed him towards the sea... and I cried."
"...wow..." Estelle was speechless. Calypso was strong, she was willing to push the one man who was willing to love her back so that he can save the world.
"Believe me, more than anything, I want him to stay. But, he had to save the world. He was a hero."
"But then, he came back. Right?"
Calypso smiled.
"Yeah, he did. Apparently, he died on his quest. Yet he was able to cheat death and came back for me."
Estelle squealed. "That's so romantic! Leo LITERALLY died for you?!"
Calypso nodded. "Yeah, and now, I was given much more than my freedom."
"And what's that?"
Estelle was still looking at Leo and noticed that the three stooges were on the ground, napping.
"I was given a home."
Estelle smiled.
"Well... I'm glad you're free, Calypso. When I read about your story in school, I felt sad that you had to suffer such loneliness and heartbreak for so long."
"Well, I never would've been with here without Leo. And even Percy too."
"Can I ask something?"
"What's up?"
"...Leo told me once that you guys had a rough couple of years after you came back. He said he was NOT boyfriend material. Why did you stay?"
"...Well... despite all his flaws, he always does his best to fix things. And that included... my heart. He may have annoyed me to death, but I still love him. But... even though he can fix anything, he never could fix himself. Especially since..."
"Jason..."
Calypso nodded.
Jason was a touchy subject for Leo. He was his best friend, his brother, his role model. Losing him nearly broke him.
"So... how did you managed?"
"I gave him space. I went to Band Camp while he went to Camp Jupiter."
"Did it work?"
"To be honest... I don't know, but I can say that it was the worst summer I ever had. A day doesn't go by when I worry for Leo. Heck, I even wondered if Leo found someone better than me. I mean, I may be a goddess, but I was always that 'second best'. I had nightmares... nightmares of Leo dumping me and dating someone else." She sighed. "But... when I came home. Leo was there. He came to me and hugged me tightly and said, 'welcome home'."
Calypso smiled, stopping herself from crying on the memories.
"It was that moment I knew. I knew I need to help Leo. Because..."
"Because he was home," Estelle finished.
"Yes... Leo Valdez was home. A broken, sarcastic, idiotic home. But MY home. My Leo Valdez." She walks up toward Leo and stroked his cheek lovingly. "My hero."
Estelle smiles as Calypso tries to wake up Leo and tells him to take the kids to bed. Estelle also promise to play with the kids tomorrow since the diner and the garage are close on Saturdays and Sundays. So the family will be able to relax the whole day.
The next day, Estelle was at the backyard with the kids, playing alongside with Festus as he swinging the kids on his tail. Festus loves the kids. Calypso was in the kitchen, making snacks and drinks for the family. Leo was helping her with the drinks since he was finish helping on Estelle's project.
"Alright everyone!" Leo said. "Snacks are ready!"
The kids and Estelle stopped playing and went toward the two with the snacks and drinks. Relaxing, Leo spoke, "By the way, Stella. I finished that project of yours. I'll show it to you tonight when the kids are asleep. Hopefully it'll help you out in New York."
Leo winked and smiled.
Estelle looks around at her family.
A goddess and a mechanic, falling in love in the weirdest way; having two such active kids, playing with their giant mechanic dragon. Laughing... having a peaceful life.
"Something wrong, Stella?" Calypso asked.
Estelle shook her head.
"No... I'm just happy. I'm happy for you and Leo. You both got your happily ever after."
A/N: Hope you enjoyed that scene. It's actually a direct sequel to the previous one-shot. Next chapter will be about a Calypso and Annabeth friendship. Still got to finish the TOA series, only finished Book one but... after hearing about Jason... I just stopped. I don't like it... but I have to finish the series. I still prefer BoO ending, but I guess not every hero gets a happy ending. Anyways, here's a bonus scene. It's based on an idea of a fanfic trilogy I'm going to make. Titles will be announced at the end.
Bonus
After Calypso took the kids to bed, Leo and Estelle headed toward the garage.
"So it's done?" Estelle asked.
"Yeah, it took a few months but I managed to finish it."
Suddenly, the garage floor was opening. Underneath Leo's garage was his workshop. In there, he was building devices and technology to protect his family against monsters and villains. However, that doesn't stop from helping his friends on some latest techs.
"Calypso made the design, but I was able to put in the materials. I even added in it's very own T.A.L.O.S system. Should help you during your... 'patrols'."
At the center of the room, was a display of a suit. It wasn't Leo's Ultima suit.
It Estelle's.
"Wow," She said.
"Made with Celestial Bronze, Royal Gold, marked with Ancient Runes from the Norse Mythology and Symbols from Egypt. And, along with Calypso's magic, it's practically indestructible against most physical damage. But, please don't overboard."
Estelle laughed at the last part.
"That's ironic, coming from you."
Leo chuckled.
"Yeah, well... I hate to see you get hurt out there."
She nodded. "Thank you, Leo. This suit will DEFINITELY help me out on my night runs. Does it also have the features I requested?"
"Yeah, I got the list here. Instructions as well. T.A.L.O.S can help you out with it, so don't stress out on it."
"Thanks."
Estelle looks back at the suit and smiled.
"Better head to bed, got to head to the airport in the morning. Hopefully the suit doesn't get shown in security. That wouldn't be fu-"
"Can I ask you something?" Leo interrupted. She nodded to the question.
"Do you... ever regret your decision? About the cure?"
Estelle eyes widen when he asked. She was quiet for a moment, then looked at her left wrist. On it was a mark.
"There was a time I did. I thought, this was gonna hurt my friends, my family... and eventually get me killed."
"So... what changed your mind?"
Estelle looks toward Leo's desk and noticed a picture frame. She took her hand out and suddenly, the mark glowed and started creating a cylinder-like aura around her arms. She then closed her middle and ring finger towards her palm.
WHOOSH
A web fluid flew out the room and landed on the frame.
Estelle then yanked the frame toward her and catches it mid-air.
The frame was the same one Leo looked a couple days ago.
"He did."
Leo knew who she was referring to.
"I hardly knew him. Yet, he went so far for his friends. He knew he wouldn't make it out alive... and yet..."
"He was a hero... and so much more," Leo finished.
Estelle gave the frame back to him and gave a sad smile.
"After hearing so much about him. About my brother and his friends saving the world less than MY age... I realized that this mark..."
She then looks back at the suit.
The Spider suit.
"It's more than a curse...
...It's a tool...
...A gift...
...A Responsibility..."
COMING SOON
Estelle and The Mark of Arachne
Book 1: The Trident of Poseidon (Origin of Estelle becoming Spider-girl)
Book 2: Legend of the Kitsune (Like Spider-Man Far from home but in Japan)
Book 3: The Web Dimensions (Do I need to explain?)
A/N: Yep. I'm planning a Spider-Man/Percy Jackson Series with Estelle Blofis as the MC. It'll have several reference to the other Spider-Man's. Plot line too, but only mildly. And no, Estelle's backstory will NOT be the same as Peter Parker.
Ain't doing that to my boy, Percy Jackson.
Oh! And several other characters will be returning too. The Kanes; Leo and Calypso; Magnus Chase (Still need to finish that series but I'm sure he's alive...ish. Right?) and more.
Will be a while though to get the writing done. School and work; along with several other fanfics I'm working on. Plus this one-shot series too. Speaking of, if you guys have any suggestions or ideas, let me know.
Until next update.

would you class percy as a morally grey character? i’m really interested to hear your input
Anon 2: Would u class percy as an Morally Gray character?
Hey there! Let me write that essay for you about morally gray Percy ^^
It’s not about whether Percy is a morally gray character or not, it’s about he has to be otherwise the story doesn’t make any sense. At least for me it wouldn’t.
Ashley (@gr33kg0ds) said in the tags of my dark!Percy post something along the line of people diminishing Percy’s character because they need him to be pure and fluffy and I wholeheartedly agree with that!
Just because Percy’s twelve doesn’t mean he’s pure and didn’t do unproblematic things. I’ll mostly refer to The Lightning Thief because that book is the Magnus Opus for Riordan and perfectly stands for Percy as a morally gray character from the very beginning of the saga. (Also the only book I’ve recently re-read)
As much as I love fanon with all the amazing artworks, debates, memes and jokes, analysis, cool edits and wonderful fanfics, projecting your version of Percy doesn’t make the image in your head real. Percy in canon is not the fun and fluffy boy you imagine him to be or which social media sites (Reddit, Twitter, Instagram and yes, also Tumblr) tend to make him to be. He’s a scrawny little sarcastic twerp that was the unpopular kid. He isn’t that cringy dude Tony Lopez doing that fucking weird TikTok dance (side note: I don’t even know who this person is and I don't care, I saw the video and immediately wanted to delete every social media app on my phone, so thanks Tony?), kissing his Yeezys goodnight, vibing to our lord and gay icon Taylord “T. Swizzle” Swift song and flexing them iPhone 11 Max Pros. Percy literally said that going to Burger King with his mother once in a while would be considered a luxury. He’s a poor bastard in literal sense.
Part of the problem with the distinction of Percy’s character and his motives stem from the fact that Percy is a sneaky unreliable narrator and we as the audience (especially if you’re younger) don’t question most of his behavior if you even question some (pretty sure that most of us only picked up weird stuff as adults). Everything seems plausible to you. But does it mean that his behavior is necessarily good? Something that would paint his character as good?
Like I’ve said, let’s take a look at TLT. The very beginning of everything and the wonderful line that gets quoted everywhere: “Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood”. 
The very first line that quoted everywhere or used as in moodboard and edits but its meaning and significance get brushed off for the most part. It immediately sets the tone and the atmosphere for the book and for Percy as a character. A(n in my opinion) morally gray character. The very first thing we hear from Percy is that he doesn’t want to be in this world. He’s an involuntary participant who has been (upon further reading) blackmailed and forced into this world and is only cooperating to get his mother back and said in regards to his father (who also stands for the Greek pantheon) ”well yeah, would be nice to know about my dad but I’ve survived without him the past twelve years so I don’t know, he wouldn’t be missed necessarily I guess?“ That pretty much tells you, it foreshadows, that we will be dealing with someone with grit, someone that fights back, someone that went through shit, someone that isn’t a goody two-shoed character. Does it mean he’s a terrible (in the sense of evil or bad) character from the get go? Not really, but it tells you in nuances that he won’t be the white shining knight you might expect from a fairy tale.
There is so much that little Perseus Jackson has to offer you directly in the first book. So much that paints him as a morally gray character. From the illegal candy stash all the way to tricking Procrustes into his own trap. He knows right from wrong and isn’t innocent by any means. He wants you to think he’s innocent. Yes, he hunts monsters and the book also tells you that some adults (Gabe) can also be monsters, but Percy’s personality is so interesting and full of facets which I love! He’s misleading you on purpose. Deflects, plays events down. He lies in front of you to others but you don’t really doubt it. Instead of questioning it, you understand it.
What distinguishes Percy from other male protagonists in that notion that the author doesn’t try to paint him as particularly good (the reader connects the dots, in reality) is pretty much that. Percy is neither inherently good or bad. He’s in the middle. He does lots of questionable things and his personality adds to it. Something that immediately comes to my mind is his lack of fear of consequences. He thinks in the short term and not in the long term. Of course, he’s caring about those that are close and important to him (Grover, Annabeth and his mother of course. And well. The world not getting destroyed by his weird father and fucking crazy uncle would be a plus). But Percy isn’t really a strategist (yet). Look at the Medusa head thingy. Annabeth and Grover warn him, that he’s gonna get his ass beat and he doesn’t care. That these gods could squish him in the end didn’t matter to him.
The Olympian gods are painted as these unpenetrable huge mighty force and some fuzzy annoyed twelve year old dipshit sends them the severed head of a monster - but not any monster, the monster his father had a role in creating (well, Athena for the most part, but you know what I mean). (Also, I know this kinda reckless behavior gets sorta rewarded but at first, everyone was like ‘NO, NO, NO!’ before Percy was glorious with his attempt). Percy essentially tells these ancient forces that drive the way of his new cosmos how shit‘s gonna work from now on.
Percy isn’t fear riddled and doesn’t think about the possible outcome. He manipulates, he lies, he persuades and all of this as soon as he hits twelve. But probably earlier. Pretty sure he had to become a believable lier in order to trick (survive being around) Gabe. Perseus is angry, he’s agitated. Had Riordan written Percy as a soft spoken, frightened, goody two-shoed kid, almost nothing in TLT and the follow-ups would have made sense. He’s the outcast, but slowly blossoms into the strength and muscles of the group. Of the entire camp. Someone that outsmarts opponents and wins battles. But he didn’t do that by playing nice and being a bootlicker.
TLT would’ve been a perfect standalone book that would have emphasized that Percy is an involuntary person sive) if you skip Kronos, leave a little bit foreshadowing with the prophecy out, tweak the talks with the gods and Annabeth’s first meeting and skip Luke and the scorpion at the end. The ending would’ve been “and so Percy had a first awesome summer vacation and found a group of friends for life” or so (aka PJO movie 1 in less shitty and more cohesive).
The morally gray character shrinks a little bit in the SOM because there lie straighter dangers ahead which dive more into the bigger picture and Percy grows more into the character who takes care of friends and but he does come back with TTC, and definitely BOTL and the St. Helens explosion.
Consequences of Percy’s interactions had people partially dying. There is doubt, there is guilt. But the show must go on. There are battles that have to be won. There is no big giving up, no big overturn for the bad guys.
Also... isn’t it interesting that we start with Percy saying ”look, I don’t want to be in this world“ in TLT and it ends with TLO where he says ”for once I didn’t look back“? The full circle? The way that accepting his fate took five books? To change Percy from being an involuntary participant to becoming voluntary? He didn’t want to be a half-blood, he didn’t want to be the kid in the prophecy, but he actively chose to be in the end. He went from a darker shade of gray to a mayhaps lighter, if you want to say so.
To conclude, I repeat myself again: it’s not about whether Percy is a morally gray character or not, it’s that he has to be.
Thanks for asking me about some meta stuff I really do like diving into these things here and there. Tumblr’s sorta glitchy, I do get notifications but I really don’t see asks, so I’m sorry if my response is mad late ^^

Blood Of Olympus Read W/ Me
This was the worst book of the series by far. I almost didn’t finish it. I think my thoughts are going to be rather short but they’ll still be below the cut for spoiler reasons. There will also be Trials of Apollo spoilers so I highly suggest not reading this if you haven’t caught up with those books! Let’s get into it.
I’d like the start by saying what I like: Nico/Reyna POV. I loved their relationship (which I didn’t see coming at all) it was very big sis-little bro vibes. I love that Nico finally found a place and his budding relationship with Will. What’s funny is though I knew Will would be his love interest (You can’t avoid them in fanfic at all) I thought he’d be more like super sunshine/super happy and that would contrast with Nico’s emo nature. But he was just chill and was like Nico, stop being a dumbass, we’re friends. I think fanfic gave me a different impression of what he’d be like (Granted I never read the fics, just summaries) and I was surprised that he was not like that. It’s not bad or good, just pointing it out. 
Oh and Nico telling Percy he liked him and Percy just being like ‘say what?’ I didn’t expect Nico to actually fess up to that one but Percy’s reaction was gold. 
The best moment in this book is Reyna taking down Orion by herself. She was that BITCH. Correct me if I’m wrong but the only other person who defeated a giant by themselves was Percy right? In the Battle of Labyrinth when he fights Antaeus? I think Antaeus was a half-giant though because Percy, a demigod, managed to kill him without the help of a god. Anyway, Reyna was everything in that scene. Oh I lied, he took down Polybotes too. They’d be unstoppable together (though I love Percabeth). She was about to sacrifice herself too!! What a queen. I respect the crap out of her. UM Jason you really picked the wrong girl lmao. 
I appreciated the Thalia cameo (because again, I didn’t re-read the Lost Hero so I haven’t seen her since the last time I read the PJO series) and the mention of Zoe. I hope Kenzie didn’t really die though, I liked her. 
And that’s all the good I have to say about it. Now for the bad...so much bad.
So after thinking about it, I realize that what makes HoO so different from its predecessor series is that there’s no consequences. The closest we got to consequences was Annabeth and Percy falling into Tartarus because they weren’t saved in time. No one important (protagonist/good guys side) died. Leo was resurrected (And I looked it up and found out that he came to Camp in the Trials of Apollo series so everyone knows he’s alive). Even for the Tartarus one, we didn’t even get a PTSD arc. It would’ve been helpful to have Percy or Annabeth’s POV in this book to wrap up that subplot. Instead we get two lines about their time in Tartarus and when Percy brings it up, Annabeth tells him not to mention it. So no PTSD arc. Got it. But we can just casually mention that Octavian committed suicide (which I don’t care for that ending at all).  Right.
The HoO books are boring because there’s no consequences. I never felt true fear apart from Percy/Annabeth being in Tartarus. In the Last Olympian, mortals were put to sleep, Annabeth was gravely injured, Silena and Beckendorf died. Luke and Ethan died. There was no magical save for them. Blood of Olympus had NO stakes, coupled with a weak, slightly developed new characters made it a bad series imo. It also doesn’t deliver on the questions posed in the book.
Hazel’s curse is still active, no descendant of Neptune has taken it away. I read the wiki summary for every book of the Trials of Apollo (The last one isn’t out yet) and there’s no mention of her curse being lifted. I think Frank’s stick is resolved imo being that it’s safe in the fireproof pouch but for some readers, they don’t think that’s resolved. Kym told Percy he’d have to face his fatal flaw. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t feel as though he did. Percy also never helped Leo find Calypso but Ig that’s null because he never got the chance to. Also is Black Jack, Frank’s grandmother, Hylla okay? Orion said Hylla got away but I was hoping for another cameo. 
Let’s talk about the villains/the entire quest of the Seven. The quest was boring, Nico/Reyna/Hedge’s quest was 100x more interesting and they were transporting a freaking statue. The quest of the Seven was fight this minor god/villain who is working for Gaea who promised them something (Even Jason has a line where he makes fun of this), outsmart/fight them, get to Athens where all the monsters are. Percy and Annabeth’s blood awakens Gaea. The gods come down which makes me angry because most of them weren’t helpful throughout the series. Poseidon wasn’t in this series at all. He didn’t even send a symbol or talk to his son who went missing. I’m pissed that the battle against Gaea wasn’t even in Athens! I’m pissed that they got slapped to New York, like what? The gods really couldn’t poof them back there, they gave some excuse but it was still bs. But I guess Rick needed Argo II to get back to NY so Leo can turn festus back into a dragon. But anyway, the gods come down, the demigods work with to defeat the giants in less than two pages. The giants that were poised as a massive threat for four books straight. Defeated in mere minutes. We don’t even get a cool battle description, they just hack and slash at them and they’re dead. Huh? 
Percy, Annabeth, Hazel, and Frank were reduced to background characters and I understand they don’t have a POV but I never felt that characters who didn’t have a POV in a certain book were ever forgotten/not utilized. They didn’t really get to do anything. 
We also don’t really see the Roman and Greek gods all that much. I know they’re the same people, different Greek and Roman personalities. But like I thought their Roman side could be seen a bit more but they were having difficulty maintain one persona throughout the whole series. I can tell you what the Greek gods are like and how they interact w/ each other based on the throne room scenes/anytime they help demigods in PJO/HoO. But Roman gods as whole? I can’t tell you how they even interact with each other. 
But wait, it gets worse. There’s not even a formal recognition thing like there was at the end of the Last Olympian (where Percy is offered godhood and Annabeth is given position of architect) there’s a little meeting with the gods and the Seven in which Jason is like give minor gods shrine and the gods aren’t really all that interested in what he has to say. There’s no thank you demigods. No, thanks Annabeth and Percy for literally going through Tartarus and Hazel for sacrificing yourself at 13 back in the 1940s. And the rest of them sacrificed something too. Like damn, no wonder why Luke was always like the gods don’t care about their kids. 
Gaea was built up to be a big bad (honestly not really, she talked trash the entire time/sent people to do her work) and the woman is easily overpowered by the three demigods. She’s not even awake for 20 minutes and she goes down. WHAT?? 
Overall, it was anti-climatic and totally did a 180 on everything else established in this series-the fact that Gaea was such a major foe and turned out not to be (that SEVEN demigods had to take her down, not just 1 like Percy’s prophecy) and the giants were to be feared too but they get taken down. At 200 pages in, I dead ass wanted to DNF, it was so boring. I gave it a one star because although the good I mentioned was really great, it doesn’t save the book. So for me, this series had every book be 3 stars or under except House of Hades. 5 books and I only really was able to like one and get through it easily and it still had issues. Like what?
Lastly, I want to touch on Jason. I still think he’s bland though I appreciated him giving Nico a hug at the end there. Again from ToA/being spoiled over the years, I learned that Jason died and I won’t be reading ToA but I read the summary of the book where he died and um, wow. I don’t feel anything for his death but the fact that he and Piper broke up sent me into a laughing/anger rage. Laughing because they really said ‘I love you’ at the end of BoO and they didn’t even make it a year lmao. And the fact that PIPER, miss always insecure in her relationship with him, McLean broke up with HIM. WOOOOOW. But it made mad because I listened to her complain/fawn over Jason for 4 freaking books (not counting tSoN) for NO REASON cuz they ended up breaking up. Overall, I appreciated what Jason, Hazel, Frank, and Piper did in the HoO series because they were helpful but I couldn’t connect with their characters. I’ll admit that in BoO we got a little bit more bonding between characters which is what I asked for in my last read with me and I like the Percy/Jason scene underwater and Piper/Annabeth scene from the beginning. I do think some relationships were summarized when they could’ve been shown--i.e. Annabeth/Reyna/Piper friendship but they have potential. 
The bonding was good, it was just too late. It should’ve happened in MoA/HoH as well. Random but I also hate how Leo was treated (esp. by Jason and Piper) throughout the series and I’m glad he got out of that mess. He was reduced to a deus ex mechanic and that wasn’t cool. The Seven wouldn’t have been able to do this quest without him. 
Sooo I guess this is it. I don’t think I’m going to read another Rick Riordan book again unless I hear something drastic happens to Percy or Annabeth/Any of the PJO characters and Reyna. I’m strongly reconsidering removing him as my fav author. I still love the PJO series but this one was not it. I don’t know if Rick was on a tight deadline for these HoO books but it was just poorly executed. I don’t regret reading the series, I think reading HoH was worth all the time I spent reading this series. I wish I had just read a summary of tSoN and MoA, especially because I already read them years ago and knew I wasn’t into them from my first read. I wasted my own time by doing that. So if I had done that I would’ve gotten to just read HoH and then only be disappointed by BoO as opposed to three books. It is what it is. It’s nice to be in the loop because I always see these things about HoO characters and spoilers so now I know how it went down. 
But that’s it guys, thank you for reading this entire thread and the ones before it. I have a lot of opinions and I don’t think I’m in the minority by saying I didn’t like this series overall. I will get back to my writeblr content and I will leave you guys with my final ratings for the series (My rating system may seem generous compared to my read with me thoughts but I personally don’t give less than 3 stars to books that plot wise made sense. It may not be the most compelling plot or have the best characters but if it made coherent sense, I have to give it at least a 3.) :
The Lost Hero: This score is based off of my original reading in 2012/2013 and my thoughts on the main characters in that book, I give this a 3/5 stars
The Son of Neptune: 3/5
The Mark of Athena: 2/5
The House of Hades: 4.5/5
The Blood of Olympus: 2/5 
Worst book of the series: Mark of Athena (Blood Olympus is a close tie but the Nico/Reyna really saves it from this spot) and best book- House of Hades.

How Do You Love Someone
(Percy Jackson Songfic)
Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians, it belongs to Rick Riordan. How Do You Love Someone belongs to Ashley Tisdale.
She could hear the fighting, even through her pillow, pulled over her head. It just never stopped, did it? Sighing, she pulled out her iPod, going to the very first song in her playlist, the one she had listened to an innumerable number of times, the one she’d listened to through several sleepless nights; How Do You Love Someone by Ashley Tisdale.
Most people would be surprised if they found out about this, Annabeth Chase, the sporty, smart, good-looking, perfect girl listening to a song about being broken. Only her best friend Thalia actually knew the truth, that the little miss perfect front was just an act.
Momma never told me how to love
Daddy never told me how to feel
Momma never told me how to touch
Daddy never showed me how to heal
Momma never set a good example
Daddy never held momma's hand
Momma found everything hard to handle
Daddy never stood up like a man
This song seemed like it was made for her. Her mom and dad were too busy fighting to even notice her. She had taught herself everything from the internet. In school, every boy yearned for her, but none succeeded at winning her hand. She’d never had the experience of seeing her parents show affection in front of her and her pretending to be disgusted. She couldn’t remember the last time her parents had hugged her. Probably when she was much younger. Her parents used to tell her of the whirlwind romance they had. How they met at the Parthenon in Greece and how, at first, neither of them thought it any more than a summer fling. However, by the end of it, both were truly, madly in love. However, Annabeth’s mom, Athena, lived in New York and Annabeth’s father, Frederick, in San Francisco. As they said their goodbyes neither thought they’d ever see each other again. However, Frederick decided he wasn’t going to lose the one good thing in his life and proposed to Athena in the airport. They were both young, happy and in love, resulting in Annabeth being born half a year later in San Francisco, where they lived; though Athena did have to go visit New York pretty often. They were happy for a while, and then it just seemed to fade. That’s when the fights started when Annabeth was only 7. Now, at the mature age of 15, she had given up hope of this stopping.
I walked alone, broken
Emotionally frozen
Getting it on
Getting it wrong
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone
She herself had never had ”the talk” from her parents, never had the embarrassing, overprotective dad meets boyfriend situation, never had her mom come to comfort her when she was heartbroken and crying. Actually, the last one is partially wrong. She had had her heart broken. But neither of her parents had even seemed to notice, let alone care enough to comfort her. That was last year when she was a freshman. She'd had a crush on a senior named Luke, who had asked her out just to later reveal that it was a dare. In his defence, he hadn't known that she was crushing on him. It still hit a lot though. She rushed home and immediately ran to her room where she lay crying for almost an hour. Like had been her first crush, her first love; and those are often the ones that hurt the most. She wondered if it was her. Was she unlovable? Her mom and dad didn't love her, Luke didn't love her, the kids at school looked up to her but did they actually like her? Her teachers all liked her, she reasoned, so she definitely couldn't be a bad person… Or could she?
I was always the chosen child
The biggest scandal I became
They told me I'd never survive
But survival's my middle name
I walked alone, hoping
Just barely coping
Getting it on
Getting it wrong
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone
She used to wonder why her parents didn't just get a divorce. Until one day, she found out; quite by accident. Her mom and dad were fighting once again. She was about to enter their room to ask about a rather difficult question that was part of her math homework. Then she heard her name and stopped. She didn't mean to eavesdrop, she was just curious. “I would have left you behind and gone to new york years ago, if not for Annabeth!”, cried Athena furiously. “And you’re welcome to. I’ll stay here with Annabeth. She's definitely not going with you! You'll be so caught up in your work you'll practically forget about her”, retorted Frederick. “How dare you!”, shrieked Athena. By this time, Annabeth had heard enough. She quietly crept back to her room. She'd rather go and ask her teacher for help than stay there anymore hearing her parents fight over her. On one hand, her parents must care about her if they were fighting over who got custody of her. On the other hand, was that really love? They were arguing over her as if she was a prized possession, not a real human being with real feelings. Her friend Piper’s parents had been on bad terms, but after their divorce and a little time apart, they were on good terms again, despite Aphrodite having remarried to some bloke named Ares. She, more than anything, wanted that for her parents. Most of her birthday wishes and letters to Santa since she was 7, have been wishes for her parents to stop fighting; and now learning that she was the reason her parents weren't taking a clean break was just too much for her to handle. She ran to her room and cried herself to sleep that night. Any normal person, by now, would have started smoking, drinking or doing drugs, or maybe started visiting a therapist. Maybe become a bully or maybe even given up. Not Annabeth, she threw herself into school and that was her refuge from the world. She kept her chin up, smiling when she felt like crying, not telling anyone but Thalia, not inviting anyone over lest they find out about her dreadful home life.
It's hard to talk
To see what's deep inside
It's hard to tell the truth
When you've always lied
How do you love someone
Without getting hurt
How do you love someone
Without crawling in the dirt
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love someone
And make it last
How do you love someone (love someone)
Without tripping on the past
So far in my life
Clouds have blocked the sun
How do you love, how do you love someone
How do you love, how do you love someone, someone
Also, did she mention she had trust issues. It was hard enough for her to trust people let alone get into a serious relationship with someone. Of course, the whole incident with Luke had not helped with this and she couldn't exactly trust her parents (sad I know), they had let her down on far too many occasions. In fact, the only person in her life she had blind faith in was Thalia. She’d made up countless lies when rejecting guys, not ever having a party or sleepover in her place. It had almost become second nature for her. Her walls were up high and her mouth was sealed.
Until she met… Him. He was the first person in so many years to get past her walls. Somehow his adorable pouts and dumbfounded expression had worked its way to her heart. He, little by little, earned his trust. And when he found her crying quietly at night, he consoled her. She talked about her mother walking out randomly one day, never to be heard from again. How her father buried himself in his work and never paid any attention to her. How Thalia died in a car crash and how everyone in her life had left her. He promised he would never leave her… and he never did. He healed her. He was her Seaweed Brain and she was his Wise Girl. They were each other’s. Now he was standing on the altar and she was walking down the aisle, soon-to-be Mrs. Annabeth Jackson, wife of Percy Jackson, her one and only true love.

Broken Pieces: Chapter 1
Okay so when I started this blog, I thought, “Oh I’ll just reblog a bunch of things, post some art and maybe some fanfics.” And I realized that I haven’t published any fanfics yet... oops. SO. This is the first chapter of my Percy Jackson OC insert story, its my first writing piece like this, so criticism is greatly appreciated! And let me know what you guys think. You can also check out the second chapter on Wattpad. Just look up Broken Pieces or my name, TouTorii! And if you want to be put on the taglist, just ask! Anyways, without further to do... I hope you guys enjoy!
<><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Disclaimor: I don’t own any of the characters in this story other than Phoebe, Rick Riordan owns most of the plot and all the other characters.
Warnings: Some Language, terrible grammar, and spelling errors.
Broken Pieces Masterlist
<><><><><><><><><><><><><>
Pain flooded my senses. The weapon impaled my gut, right below my heart. It took all of my remaining strength to look at the man I once considered my brother and choke out, "Gods damn it. Fight." And that's when numbness took over my body and the darkness flooded my eyesight.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><>
I woke with a start, my breathing was labored. It was dark, but not pitch black like my dream. I sat up and scanned my surroundings. Dozens of demigods were packed in the little Hermes cabin. Mostly undetermined stayed here. I grabbed my dagger and slipped out of the cabin. It was about three hours until breakfast so I walked to the tree on the hill. Even though bloodshed and horrors have seen this camp, it had an amazing view. I dont know how long I sat there, it could have been hours, it could have been a couple of minutes. But after awhile I heard footsteps approaching me. I turned my head to be greeted by Connor Stoll. He has a lopsided smile plastered onto his tan face. He wordlessly sat down next to me. We sat in comfortable silence, until he broke it, saying,
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing."
"And I'm the queen of England."
"Yep, I know you are."
"Phoebe..."
I sighed and closed my eyes.
"How'd you know somethings wrong?" I asked.
"You're wearing your baby blanket."
I looked down, sure enough, it was wrapped around my shoulders. When did I do that?
"The only time you wear it is when you're upset, so please, tell me whats w-"
"I had the dream again." I said. He looked up.
"The one where you.... You know.."
"Yeah..."
"Did you see who stabbed you?"
"No." That was a lie.
"Well, are you okay?"
"Yeah." Another lie.
He looked at me with worry plastered on his face. He saw right through my facade. Just like he always did. But instead of saying anything he just engulfed me in a hug. I clung to his shirt like my life depended on it. Tears threatened to break through but I shoved the feeling down. We stayed like that until breakfast. That's when we got up and walked to the dining pavilion.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><>
When Breakfast was over we all went to do our daily training. Everything was normal. No one trying to kill me, no one trying to kill each other, all was going great. The Hermes cabin was currently sparring. I was paired up with Luke Castellan, my cabin leader. We were even for the most part, both getting in hits every once in awhile. But eventually I disarmed him and took the victory.
"You did good, but not as good as me, Luke." I said as I helped him up.
"I wish I could slap that smirk off of your face right now." He grumbled.
"You still love me though." I said with a wink. He blushed and said something incoherent.
"You gotta speak up pretty boy." He mumbled something again.
"I said, you wish." He finally said at a normal volume.
I mocked offense and put a hand on my chest.
"How dare you! I am loved by everyone and almost everything!" I said with the utmost confidence.
"I have to disagree with that!" I heard Connor yell while he was sparring against Travis.
"I could whip your ass too." I yelled at him.
"Kinky!" He slyly smirked.
"Connor! There are children!"
"Says the chick who said ass.''
"Whatever"
When I turned around, I was met with Luke red in the face from laughing.
"Shut up."
"I never said anything."
He raised his sword toward me and said, "I declare a rematch."
"Sure your knighthood." I said with a bow. And we went at it again.
  <><><><><><><><><><><><><>
It was late at night, a storm raged around camp.
"Who the hell ticked off the drama queen?" Thunder boomed louder, I decided to stop before Zeus incinerated me. I was just outside the border getting soaked in the rain when I turned around and saw a horrific sight. A child was fighting a giant bull while someone else was knocked out cold. When did they get here? How could I be so blind?The wind and rain was deafening, but I ran and tried to make my way over there. But before I could help, the little kid stabbed the Minotaur and it evaporated. The kid nearly passed out so I ran to grab them before they hurt themselves even more.
"Just hold on kid." I said. They looked confused but let me carry them passed the border.
"Grover..." The kid said. I was confused, Grover? Then it clicked, this is the kid that Chiron was watching at Yancy. I turned around and saw Grover covered in mud. I picked him up and carried them both to the border. I saw Chiron and Annie come with worried looks.
"Is this him? The one from the p-" Annie started.
"Not now Annabeth, he is still awake." Chiron reprimanded. That's when I looked over where the kid was and saw that he was passed out on my shoulder. I scanned his face, seeing cuts and bruises from the battle. He couldn't have been more than 12.
Jesus, 12 and fighting for his life. How long had he known about the life? This world? I picked him up and carried him to the infirmary. After I had seen to stitching up his deep cuts and applying bandages and healing salves, I sat down and kept an eye on him.
"Bull baby, of all the monsters to send after an innocent kid."
"How do you know he's innocent?" I jumped, unaware of Annie being in the room.
"Because, I have a gut feeling, and I've learned to trust my gut."
"That's so stupid." I chuckled. Annie got red in the face, "Well it is! Using your brain is much more efficient."
"So you're telling me that you ignore your instincts on the battlefield?" I inquired.
"Well I- I mean- I just- Shut up!" That made me burst into another fit of laughter. But Annie had a scowl on her face showing she did not appreciate my teasing.
"Aw come on, Annie."
"...."
"Are you really mad at this amazing beautiful specimen?"
"..."
"Okay, I guess you don't want to read any more of my dad’s architecture books.” 
"What?! No! I'm not mad!"
I laughed, and eventually so did she. It was rare to see a smile on her face, especially after Luke got his quest. The poor girl couldn't get a break. She had been here a long time, not as long as I have, but still a long time. She just wants to prove she's worthy of being a daughter of Athena.
"mom. .. . ." The kid groaned quietly. I whipped my head around and immediately grabbed his hand, so he could have something to ground himself with if needed. He opened his eyes and oh my gods, they were like the ocean.
Ocean?
No.
Why.
But the pact.
I swear they're more horny than a teenager.
That's why this kid is attracting so many monsters.
Not just because of Hades.
But because of his parent.
Poseidon.

I don't usually make posts like these, but, I have a Percy Jackson OC, which I'm in the process of writing right now.
The fanfic is Luke Castellan x OC just so you're aware— with that being said, I promise not much will change from the books (as I'll be writing Cameron's story as best I can without interfering with the main story of the PJO series)
In the book, you'll follow her story, and get to see things that Percy never really got to see (aside from his dreams) like what happens inside Kronos’s Army in between the books, or moments away from Luke and his team.
Chapter postings are usually Friday OR Saturday, with no specific time frame. So far seven chapters have been published, and more chapters are soon to come!
Below in the link is where you can find my fic, called "The Son of Hermes and the Daughter of Nike."

My PJO/HP Crossover
So I’ve had this in my head for WEEKS, and I’ve finally started making art content on this idea. I’m sure other people have made their own crossovers with these two very much beloved fandoms, but here’s my take on it.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VERSION OF THE GODS I’M USING IS BASED ON HOW RICK RIORDAN WROTE THEM! 
Also, I’ve used the minor gods that are given cabins after the series finished.
- Harry Potter as the Son of Zeus. I’m sure a lot of people don’t mind this one. Also it really fits the aesthetic of how he got his lightning scar since it’s a different world.
- Ron Weasley as the Son of Athena. I SAID IT. I headcanon that he’s actually very wise and strategic in fighting, using logic and everything. Especially with his talent in chess, which is a very highly admired strategy game
- Hermione Granger as the daughter of Hecate. This is because while doing a bit of research, I found that the children of Hecate study a lot and work hard to have control over the magic, and I see Hermione doing that. (Source)
- Draco Malfoy as the son of Nemesis. I couldn’t help but find how Ethan Nakamura and Draco Malfoy had a few parallels, sure. But also with Nemesis being about balance, I see Draco Malfoy ensuring everyone is kept in check (even himself). So when he think people are worshipping ‘The Chosen One’ too much, he’ll be there to bring him down in a way all the praise doesn’t go to his head. Sometimes it goes too far, but it’s just what he knows. Looks up to Ethan and can understand Luke.
- Pansy Parkinson as the daughter of Aphrodite. Sometimes I see her as a holder of charmspeak, other times I don’t. But I do think she fits Aphrodite well because of what I’ve read in fanon/fanfiction. I don’t think she’d participate in the so called ‘Rite of Passage.’
- Blaise Zabini as son of Hermes. HEAR ME OUT. Hear me ouutt. He’d take a different approach as compared to the rest of the Hermes cabin. He’d sit and watch and wait quietly. He wouldn’t steal in a normal sense of pickpocketting, but if you’re not careful, you’ll find yourself with a lot less money with his subtle persuasion. Also, he’s pretty damn great at hosting parties.
- Neville Longbottom as son of Demeter. Absolute green-thumb and a good-natured heart and soul. But he would kick your arse EASY.
- Ginny Weasley as daughter of Nike. Super competitive, driven and intense. Love strong opponents. I imagine her waking up everyday and wanting that feel of adrenaline when you’re almost done with a match and you had one moment of wondering whether or not you’d win.
- Fred and George Weasley as sons of Hermes. Think of the Stoll brothers, now imagine them with Fred and George energy. Yep. 
- Luna Lovegood as daughter of Hebe. They’re absolute ‘people people’ who love helping people, and I see Luna doing that. She’d be the kind who gives advice, but not obvious advice because she believes it means more when people realise it themselves. Also, they have a youthful appearance all the time and I definitely see that.
- Theodore Nott as son of Apollo. Honestly, I imagine him becoming a basic first aid medic, and then learning more complicated stuff as more and more people go on quests. Also, he’d be a pretty good shot with a bow, especially for when he’s on patrol.
- Gregory Goyle as son of Hephaestus. Don’t ask about Crabbe because I miiiight have killed him. If you’ve read my drarry fanfic -I Don’t Love You (Lie. no 1)- you’d know that I see him eventually going into repairing and creating things. So in this world, I see him doing the same. Similar to Hephaestus, he’d have trouble understanding people, and being more comfortable with machines. Also, I reckon he’d be super strong and great as creating weapons.
-  Additional: Hagrid could be a satyr. The satyr that brought Harry to Camp Half Blood. 
(Main Source: http://rickriordan.com/extra/camp-half-blood-cabins/)
I’ve started making intro comic cards to show the characters a little bit. I’ve also started working on a creating a fanart comic for this idea, which will be complete with a whole prophecy story and everything. 
Check out the links below!
Intro character comic cards (Will be hyperlinked when they are uploaded):
Harry Potter - Ron Weasley - Hermione Granger - Draco Malfoy - Neville Longbottom - Ginny Weasley - Luna Lovegood - Pansy Parkinson - Blaise Zabini - Fred and George Weasley - Theodore Nott - Gregory Goyle
Story Comic Parts (none as of right now)

We can ask about Libahunt 2.0?? I thought it was on the hush hush! This is so exciting! So when Libahunt 2.0 gets published (because you're too awesome to not be published) are you going to delete the BBS fanfic version? You mentioned that you're going to limit the swears and innuendos in 2.0, so does that mean Not Tyler is getting heavily censored? Will Samantha be called Sammy to match Scotty? Will Not Brian's title still be "Terroriser"? I feel like Terroriser matches his darker past.
More 2.0 questions, sorry! Will Samatha's experiment number still be 407? Will Not Luke keep the missing eye and southern drawl? Will Not Smiity still have white hair and blue/red eyes? Will Not Del still have piercing blue eyes? Are you gonna leave in any references to the original fanfic, besides the basic plot? Will Not Del have the same red markings that, I'm guessing, are based on the Jason mask? Are you gonna take out the bat so you don't have a repeat of Minibat?
Crim you're going to be the new Rick Riordan and I'm so excited for it!!!
Holy crap I just scrolled down on your dash and realized I missed a crap ton of asks! I'm living all of the 2.0 stuff I'm finding! I can't wait for it to be published so I can own a physical copy of one of, if not the, greatest fanfics ever written! Crim I'm so excited for you!!!!!
(Sorry for spamming you with asks!! >.
Okay so there’s a loooot to answer here so I will try to do it all! ^.^
Yes, it’s gonna be deleted off Tumblr. But I’ll give y’all like a week’s notice so you can save it to your computer or something ^.^
haha yeah, Theodore/Teddy (Tyler) 
Sam or Sammy will be Scotty’s nickname, yes
Belle’s (Brian) name from the past will be “The Ravager” 
Hmmm I haven’t thought about the number yet. I might just to pay homage but I don’t know yet. I don’t wanna keep too much in there. 
Leon (Luke) will still not have his eye. That’s important to the story. And maybe, there’s no reason not to have the southern accent. 
I think Samus (Smiity) has silver eyes instead of the red/blue, but he’s got white hair still I believe since he’s an elf. 
Jonathan will still have his blue eyes and markings. They’re not really something I have to change cause people who weren’t in the BBS fandom wouldn’t really notice or pick up on. 
The bat is gonna stay because nobody but this crazy fandom would ship Chloe (Mini) with a bat!!! >.
Haha I don’t know if I’ll get that big...but if I could be like R.R I’d be so blessed.
Again not the best fanfic ever written but it’s an honor for you to say that. 
I don’t know if this style of book is something they’ll like? Haha but I wouldn’t know really what they’d say. 
Hope I answered it all!
