#percabeth tropes

[tulipsinavonlea]

Established relationship!percabeth but they're still competitive fighters that try their hardest to one up each other during a fight/capture the flag and refuse to let up even when they're SO sickeningly in love——— you will ALWAYS be special to me

[helpallthenamesaretaken]

I finally know what it is that makes percy and grover’s dynamic so different. Its the same dynamic that we see in american middle school media: a male protagonist and his weird, nerdy, conventionally less attractive male friend and their whole friendship dynamic is a shift from “he’s so weird ew” to “hey, maybe i can live with being your friend”

But percy and grover are different because they love each other so much!! Their friendship dynamic developed from “i like him, even though he’s a bit weird” to “you’re one of my favourite people and i know you dont believe that but ill make you believe it” which is like a hundred steps ahead of the typical friendship we see in the media.

There are three types of ships:

"If you die, know that I love you."

"If you die, I'll kill you."

"If you die, the fucker that dared lay a finger on you will be sorry."

[holdfastperseus]

The “I was forced to forget you” couples

[not-a-lame-llama]

She fell first and he jumped to save her

(I just finished The Last Olympian)

[a-very-sparkly-nerd]

actually the best trope is enemies to coworkers to friends to lovers

[randomness-is-my-order]

“i didn’t think we would ever be friends” yes percy say it louder for the people in the back this is an enemies to lovers arc not an enemies to friends to lovers arc

[stop-ur-losing-me]

my favorite lovers tropes

academic rivals to lovers (IS SO GOOD, plus when theyre forced to work together)

the "why didn't you answer my letters??" followed by "you wrote me letters???" HEARTWRENCHING

fake dating (enough said)

the 'you need to learn how to dance so im gonna teach you and oh gosh why r we this close?' (honestly one of my all time favs)

the two enemies dancing together at a masquerade dance (yes, just yes)

the screamed love confession during an argument "BECAUSE I LOVE YOU" (best thing ever)

one bed trope (enough said)

the 'i hate everyone but you' couple (yesssss)

one losing their mind if the other is hurt or captured (cough percabeth cough)

the bodyguard/princess trope I REPEAT THE BODYGUARD/PRINCESS TROPE

the 'we were flirting and everyone else knows we were flirting but we're in denial bout it' (this trope)

MUTUAL PINING MUTUAL PINING

additionally, the 'everyone thinks we're dating but we r not/ in denial bout it' (BEST TROPE EVER)

the hero falling for the villain (honestly one of the best ones out there)

lovers to enemies (SO ANGSTY)

there's more i'll add when i can :)

[cherries-and-knives]

Yah the male love interest is blonde *affectionate* (he’s bisexual and an adorable idiot in love w some dark haired angry person)

Yah the male love interest is blonde *derogatory* (he has the personality of a stale saltine cracker)

[thejudgingtrash]

How did we go from “(childhood) friends to lovers is the best as they already know each other and care for each other so much!” to “(childhood) friends to lovers is so problematic, they’re sibling coded and it’s basically incest at this point” ????????

Aside from this being an asinine insane take… that’s not how any of this works lol…? Wouldn’t you want to be friends with your partner as well??

[demigods-posts]

percy and annabeth's depature on mount saint helens affected them both very deeply, and i love for the show to capitalize on it. specifically, during percy's return to camp. i loved to see him fixate on annabeth rushing toward him amidst a crowd of campers. i'd love to see annabeth hug percy so hard, he stumbles backward. i'd love to see percy wraps his arms around her waist in tearful relief that she made it out alive. and i'd especially love to see the surrounding campers fall silent at their reunion because something definitely happened between those two.

[hepaidattention]

"enemies to lovers or friends to lovers" actually I choose both, because nothing beats "enemies to friends to lovers," watching that slow burn of two people hate each other until their friends, and then just bicker, pretend to be annoyed with one another, and pine over each other until they admit their love for one another. there's nothing better honestly.

[lunaria7]

The possibility of Ace having a big fat crush on Yuu is astounding. Like if they're (this probably won't happen) canon, I want them to have percabeth type of development and maybe dynamic too. Literally peak friends to lovers trope 🤭

....

My god the brainrot is real

[milomilesmib]

"Oh you're cold? Take my coat" but it's life or death so the character giving the coat is essentially saying "only one of us can make it out and I want it to be you"

Bonus points if it's enemies to lovers so it's like "I used to want you to die so bad but now all I want is for you to live, so much so that I'd give my own life just to make sure you get out of this alive."

fic rec friday 19

hi!! welcome to fic rec friday. every week, i pick five fics i have bookmarked and rec them with a little review. check them out!

Falling For You (Literally) by peanutbutterapple

Will Solace was positively sure of two things. 1. He was unwaveringly devoted to his boyfriend of nearly a year, Nico di Angelo. 2. Of all the demigods at Camp Half-Blood, the Aphrodite kids were not to be toyed with.

love how theyre still working on their relationship in this one!! like they are clearly into each other and they know that but that is not Enough to sustain a relationship. cool commentary that relationships take work AND the work doesnt have to be hard/bad, there just needs to be effort. loved that.

2. I got a boy back home who's unlike any other by sunburst_city

“Ew,” Will says when he pulls away, licking his lips and grimacing at what Nico assumes is a mixture of stale sweat, dirt, and other things Nico would rather not think about. “You taste nasty.” “Excuse you. You try chasing down a rogue hellhound across a fucking bayou.”

this one was so cute!! it's a small thing but i love the dynamic where nico is such an Explorer you know. because it's very uniquely solangelo in terms of pjoverse!! they don't both want the same things. will is more of a homemaker and always has been. he's not a fighter and he doesn't want to be. he holds down the fort at home, he makes sure everyone is okay, he keeps people in line. whereas nico is right in the throes of the battle, in the middle of everything. they went on an adventure together and it was really hard for both of them. i like reading stuff where they have their own thing and they're very proud of each other for it.

3. fall asleep until it's only you and me by by sunburst_city

There is something frighteningly tangible about all her dreams involving Percy Jackson. 6 instances Annabeth dreams of Percy.

WHAT IF ANNABETH HAD GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO HER HUH. WHAT THEN. WHAT FUCKIN THEN. WHAT IF SHE HAD A GODDAMN MOMENT OF PEACE IN HER LIFE ACTUALLY

4. Overhead by cabeswaters

Will and Cecil really need a new phone and Nico is weak for boys with freckles. (Or, Will overhears a conversation he wasn't meant to and for once it's not a bad thing.)

overheard is the best trope of all time idc. truly elite. there is nothing more romantic than discovering your beloved talks and talks and talks about how much they love you to others!! it is flattening!!

5. Watch Me While I walk Away by @buoyantsaturn

“Actually, I’m taking over the route - Connor, nice to meet you,” the driver said, before going through the usual sign here, first name, last initial spiel. “Thank you very much, and I’ll see you around!” 

oh being that whipped is EMBBARRASSINGG truly i get him. mitchell u are so real. and will is correct it is just like legally blonde how LUCKY

thank you for joining me this friday!! happy reading!!
