#percabeth wedding is gonna be the death of me

[chichariann]

PERCABETH WEDDING PAGES 9 TO 16

Script:

From the pillars, water started to gush out as Juniper, Eudora, and Mellie walk down the aisle. My heart was thumping in my chest, my ear rung, my fingers shook. I failed to take in the petals fluttering in the air, the scent of the strawberry fields wafted in the air. Water rose on the aisle going up to their ankles as the mist shrouds the aisle, but I only cared for what awaited beyond the waterfall at the other end of this aisle.

I am back from my sabbatical (university 💀) and have come to finish the brainrot that I have started and must now bury myself into.

Last 3 pages will be up next week and I cannot believe this chapter in my almost decade long obsession with this series is coming to an end... Updates on Percy Jackson content next week 💙

So… my Married Valgrace AU got me thinking about the implications of wedding vows in the Riordanverse.

Like you know for a fact that there’s an afterlife, so “til death do we part” now gets a whole lot more complicated. Do you swear to keep loving them beyond death? What if only one of you ends up in Elysium? Or what if you both end up in Asphodel and can’t find each other again? What if one of you dies years after and now there’s an uncomfortable age gap? Is this something couples have to consider when writing their vows?

And don’t get me started on wedding vows that are sworn on the River Styx. You’re already making a vow you shouldn’t break. Now you’re making a vow that you can’t break, lest there be dire consequences. But it’s not like you can go to your betrothed when writing the vows like “actually, babe, I wanna say “I do”, but I don’t, like, wanna swear it on the Styx, just in case.”

Promises and broken promises are a definite theme in the Riordanverse. It shows up time and time again- Percy’s promise to Nico to protect his sister, the Gods’ promise to pay child support, Leo’s promise to Calypso, Jason’s mom’s broken promise to come back for him, Apollo’s broken oath to not play music or use archery, and his oath to Jason to remember his humanity. Swearing on the Styx is a BIG deal, promises in general, and I wonder how that reflects in a promise made, not only in front of friends and family, but also in the eyes of the gods. Marriage vows particularly being Hera’s department, Queen of the gods. It is taken SERIOUSLY in demigod culture. Especially since probably not many demigods survive long enough to get married.

Now, in Jason’s case particularly his whole identity has been shaped by a broken promise- his mom saying she’d see him again when she left him at the Wolf House- and also something about my theory that “trust” is Jason’s fatal flaw. Making a vow to Leo would be a big thing for him- a good thing, to show his devotion to the man he loves. But if he makes a promise, he means it.

And Leo, who has always been pushed aside, the Repair Boy, the Seventh Wheel, who’s nothing to no one if he’s not useful, can’t quite comprehend someone doing something that meaningful for him.

Similarly, Jason has always given his life for other people. For Camp Jupiter, the gods, his friends. His needs have always come last. In canon, his last act was to save his friends so that Apollo could continue his quest, his final wish being that temples were made to the gods at the two camps. For Leo to be devoted to him, to want to be with him, to vow to him- that’s the first time someone has ever done something that powerful.

I think in Valgrace’s case, they don’t need to swear on the Styx. In fact, I think it’s more meaningful if they don’t. Showing their dedication to keeping their promise without the incentive of divine punishment if they break it. Knowing how much making that promise means to the other one. Knowing that it goes without saying that they intend to fucking keep their promises. They’d swear to love each other beyond death, though. The consolation of “No, I’m NEVER leaving you. Not even if you explode again. I will go to the ends of the earth to be with you, and nothing is gonna stop me loving you, not even us being on different plains of existence.”

Anyway, there’s a lot to be said about the theme of promises in PJO, and how that applies to marriage. A lot of this can be used for Percabeth as well.

listen I know posts like this are painfully cliché, but for your consideration: the Magnus Chase series filmed in a Parks and Rec/The Office style

- Every time someone doesn't understand/refuses to use ASL, Hearth sends a long, withering stare into the camera

- That scene from the Office where Dwight sets the place on fire bc he was mad no one paid attention to his fire safety power point presentation??? Odin when he was still disguised as an einherjar

- Any time Anyone is being hard on themselves Magnus starts complimenting them like Leslie Knope compliments Ann

- Every time Magnus sends a sarcastic prayer to his father we cut to Frey just frowning in mild confusion

- Amir: "Samirah why did I get a letter from a norse god inviting me to your wedding???"

  Sam:

- Any time Magnus says or does Anything, Alex either looks into the camera in exasperation or they cut to an aside of her ranting about how stupid he is

- The whole episode where Lil' Sebastian escaped the petting zoo and got lost in the maze, but like, when Fenris Wolf escaped his chains

- Jack the sword is literally just Jean-Ralphio

- Magnus, wearily throwing himself down in a seat outside of Fadlan's: "Give me all the falafel you have. Wait, wait- I'm worried what you just heard was 'give me a lot of falafel'. What I said was 'give me all the falafel you have'. Do you understand?"

- Loki is essentially just both the Tammy's and Jamm rolled into one

- Shots of Sam flying into danger and wielding an axe and just doing generic Valkyrie stuff and then they just pan over to Amir with wide eyes looking like he's about to faint

- Every time someone curses, Jack lets out a "beeeeep" to censor it; Jack curses freely

-  *one of those weird and uncomfortable Inge and Hearth scenes happen*

    Blitzen: "The thing about Alfheim culture is...I don't understand it."

- Every time there's a battle happening a weirdly non-battle song plays but the scene will occasionally splice to an aside of Jack just singing that song off-tune

- Every time Magnus forgets he's supposed to be the healer of the group, the person who's dying stares into the camera until it hits him

- Cut to scenes of Blitz and Hearth on one of their aside secret missions- "DONT be SUSPICIOUS, DONT BE S U S P I C I O U S~~~~" asl is worked into the dance moves

- Fredrick and Annabeth: 'Hey where the fuck is Magnus?'

  Randolph: "~~Technically he's HOMELESSSSS~~~~"

- We still get all the ridiculous death scenes in Valhalla but all the warriors act like the Citizens of Pawnee even when they're dying like they're Awful.

  ex) Alex, holding a vase to one of the managers: "Yeah I made this in one of  your pottery classes??? It's TERRIBLE!" *throws it so hard at them they loose an eye*

  ex) TJ, dying in his bed: "Yeah you know that water fountain with the 'do not drink the water' sign? Halfborn dared me to drink from it and now I'm dying of a fatal infection. Sir, sir are you listening??? Sir I'm TALKING TO YOU! Are you aware that there's waste in your water system???"

  ex) Mallory, twelve arrows sticking out of her and slowly bleeding to death: "I don't know what I did to deserve this." - Magnus: "You were yelling at a bunch of little kids on the battlefield." - "Well they SUCKED!"

- Every time someone predicts Blitz or Hearth is gonna die the camera pans in on Magnus who groans into the camera

- "Thor has never had a real job...in his LIFE,"

- "Mallory, you're like a Valkyrie without flight magic!" - "...So like a person?"

- Every time Loki invades Magnus' dreams he talks as if he's expecting a laugh track and Magnus just gets more and more confused

- Magnus: "I have done nothing wrong, ever, in my entire life."

   Blitz and Hearth: "We know this, and we love you."

- During the brief percabeth cameo in Ship of the Dead, every time Magnus or Alex stares into the camera or does an aside or something, Percy and Annabeth are like...what the fuck are you doing. What are you looking at. Who are you talking to. Why are the Norse like this???

- Hearth: *belittles or doubts himself*

  Magnus and Blitz: *signing aggressively* YOU HAVE A L L THE STRENGTHS

- Alex: "Someone will DIE..."

  Magnus: ".....of fun?"

- When Leslie lowkey kidnapped the gay penguins and took them to Iowa where it was legal??? Magnus with Thor's goats

- Basically everyone who isn't human is an Eagletonnian like that's why they're so fake nice about guest rights lol

- The cameras are really just Odin's ravens

- Any time Magnus and Alex have a moment(tm) you can see Sam lurking in the background making excited eyebrows into the camera

- Any time they gotta talk about crafting or fashion Blitz is basically Tom Haverford you know I'm right

- When gods make ridiculous requests or give dumb orders and you get a shaky zoom in on the mains looking ready for the end

- Remember when Jerry lied about getting mugged bc he didn't want to admit he got messed up trying to get a burrito?? Magnus after he tried and failed to fight that eagle that stole his falafel

- Blitz has absolutely said 'treat yo self' at least once

- Loki, complaining about his eternal punishment: "I am the victim of a hate crime!"

  Magnus: "That's...not what a hate crime is."

  Loki: "WELL I HATED IT."

- Mimir is basically Orin

- Alex: *exists*

  Magnus: "Whats a not gay way to ask him to go camping with me?"

- my laptop's dying but I will not drop this I'll be back later
