"I will need your input, Mr Weasley. As our new star student, surely you have a good theory about these Cursed Vaults?"
"I-I don't know...Bill told me to stay away from them, professor."
"I am offering the opportunity of a lifetime, Percival. Wouldn't you die to know what's behind that vault? To know all the secrets of the universe?"
"...well, yes. But professor, is it safe?"
"Oh, you can trust me."
(set in Year 5 of Hogwarts Mystery, but Percy has a bigger role about the Cursed Vaults than in the game. why? cause he deserves to be a main character too and he has so much potential)

i never understood ppl claiming percy has never suffered the consequences of his loyalty. you're talking about percy "i know the prophecy said my friend would betray me but these are my friends they wouldn't betray me" jackson, who walked into a remote part of the forest with luke and almost died in book one. you're talking about percy "kronos told me point-blank there was a traitor but i can't imagine any of these ppl betraying me" jackson, who decided to stop looking for the traitor and moved on. you're talking about percy "nico is acting suspicious and very clearly hiding something from me but he's my friend and i trust him" jackson, who walked into nico's very obvious set up and almost got himself held hostage during the titan war. percy is so loyal that he cannot fathom betrayal until it's happening, and it has nearly killed him multiple times.
#i think ppl focus on what athena said#'you would destroy the world to save a friend'#but that's not fatal for percy! that's what makes percy dangerous *to the gods*#loyalty is a fatal flaw *for percy* bc he can be told point blank that his friend will betray him and still not be able to comprehend it!#i don't know that percy ever voiced his inability to consider betrayal to anyone (in the books i'm pretty sure it's internal dialogue)#so all anyone else sees is the danger he poses to *them* and *their plans*#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo hoo toa#pjo books#fatal flaws#percy#min talks pjo

i feel like percy is the person that people bring with them when they need to go somewhere or do something potentially dangerous. or more realistically, he’s the one who people’s loved ones tell them to take with. it just makes people feel better knowing percy is there. you know what i mean?
sally has a meeting with someone who sounds a bit weird (and paul can’t go)? paul tells her to bring percy.
paul needs to go to a really sketchy part of town? sally asks him to bring percy
piper got a weird anonymous note and needs to go meet them at a location? annabeth tells her to bring percy
leo has to go get some magic machine part from a really shady dealer? piper tells him to bring percy
frank has to go on an unofficial quest to investigate some shady legion history, and hazel has to stay with camp? hazel tells him to bring percy
and it’s NOT because any of these people can’t take care of themselves. they are all strong and brave and badass, and can handle anything. but for one, percy is intimidating as hell. his “wolf stare” sends literal gangs running the other way. you can avoid conflict before it even happens, because no one is messing with percy. and second, percy just makes you feel safe. his presence is comforting. not only has he been through all the demigod-hero-world-saving shit, and is powerful as hell, but he also grew up in new york city. he can handle pretty much any situation. plus he’s super sweet and funny, and you can always count on him to make you laugh and decrease your anxiety. and he’s always got your back. he takes care of the people he loves.
he’s just the best company. for so many reasons.
when in doubt, bring percy
#bring percy#he makes you feel better#he’s got the best jokes and comments#and there’s just something about him#he’s dangerous so you know others won’t mess with him#but he’s also warm and sweet and makes his friends and family feel safe#he’s just the best#pjo headcanon#percy jackson#sally jackson#paul blofis#piper mclean#annabeth chase#leo valdez#frank zhang#hazel levesque#pjo#heroes of olympus#percy jackson and the olympians#percabeth#riordanverse#rick riordan

R.I.P. the version of Percy Jackson, who spoke competently in front of the senate, fairly easily ridiculed Octavian, and managed to sway the romans to his side simply by providing good arguments and being a natural born leader in Son of Neptune, you will always be famous to me
#just completely defeating the guy who is supposed to be a dangerous political opponent in a verbal discussion#I love to see it#HOO Percy Jackson at his very best#R.I.P. You were missed in Mark of Athena#And every other book since#heroes of olympus#son of neptune#percy jackson#rr crit#hoo crit#I'm so sorry#you deserved better writing after this

My favorite past time is reminding people that Percy's fatal flaw being "excessive loyalty" would make him 10 times scarier if he truly turned "dark". Letting them know that Percy would do things that make what Luke did look absolutely harmless. That if anyone were to hurt someone that he considers a loved one or friend, that Percy "I wanted to see just how much missery missery could take" Jackson would probably torture them and put them through hell that would make Tartarus look like a cake walk. That with his powers he could easily become scarier and more intimidating than any monster or god in existence.
That if you thought Luke was any type of monster, then Percy would be 50 times worse.
#because people like to not remember how most of the messed up things that “Luke” did was actually kronos or his brainwashing#and that a Luke that hadn't been manipulated by Kronos wouldn't have done like 80% of the things that he ended up doing#and percy?#it's been shown multiple times that he has a major dark side#and how dangerous he could be#and a dangerous person who values loyalty above all is one of the scariest people#percy jackson#luke castellan#pjoverse#pjo#percy jackon and the olympians#thank you for coming to my ted talk

I'm sorry to new fans but they'll never have what we oldies have: Ugly ass official character art and Rick Riordan threatening to kill characters while answering readers tweets
#percy jackson#based on an actual interaction i had with rick back on 2013 when I was 16 on his q&a#Me: can we get more percy books even if he has to be in mortal danger? Rick: sure i'm killing him next sequel because of you#i still have that screenshot somewhere probably imagine getting that notiffication in the middle of a hs class#funniest thing that has happened to me#also considering that he was already writting heroes of olympus and putting percy through the horrors that was very funny of him

Why Jason Grace is The Most Tragic Character in the Riordanverse
*in no way is this trying to dial down Nico's own suffering, I'm just stating my case for Jason because godsdamn SOMEBODY needs to say it!*
@most-tragic-character-tournament here's propoganda i came out guns ablazing
List of why fans are saying Nico:
Lost his mother
lost years of his life
found out he was a demigod at age 10
lost sister at 10
rough relationship with his dad
closeted gay
crush is madly in love with somebody else
forced to come out
List of why Jason is more tragic:
Lost his mom to alcoholism/mental decline
Lost his ENTIRE FUCKING CHILDHOOD because Said Mom gave him up to Juno to be raised by a PACK OF WOLVES who would've EATEN HIM if he was WEAK FOR EVEN A SECOND - AS A FUCKING TWO YEAR OLD
Was a trained demigod FROM THE GET-GO (again, TWO YEARS OLD)
Because of previously stated separation, was TAKEN FROM HIS SISTER WHO LOVED HIM SO MUCH SHE RAN AWAY BECAUSE SHE COULDN'T TAKE THE GUILT AND FEAR AND RAGE THAT FILLED HER AT HIS ABSENCE
Was set up into a "perfect" relationship by Juno/Hera WHILE HAVING HIS MEMORIES TAKEN
Jason may not have had the awful forced outting Nico had to go through, but...that's not really his fault? Nobody has any control over their sexual identity, and Jason? Well. He never really got to explore it. Because that was taken from him too.
Thinks he LOST LEO VALDEZ, ONE OF HIS ACTUAL FIRST FRIENDS, WHO LIKED HIM FOR HIM AND NOT BECAUSE OF HIS STATUS
FORCED TO COMPLY TO A DEMANDING SOCIETY THAT EXALTED HIM FROM DAY 1 BECAUSE HIS DAD IS THE OH-SO-IMPORTANT JUPITER (*cough victim of nepotism cough*)
AND WHEN HE TRIES TO COMBAT THAT NEPOTISM HE KEEPS GETTING PUSHBACK UNTIL HE FALTERS
then. then his girlfriend breaks up with him - not because of any drama, or even a disagreement, but over a very valid point
their relationship didn't exactly start out very...honestly. Jason had been mind-wiped of all memories and Piper had fake ones implanted into her to make her think she liked Jason as more than a friend. sure. they had a pretty nice relationship, but when everything slowed down and they took a look at their lives?
Piper's the one who sees it first, and makes the decision. Jason is heartbroken, but understands - he even, dare I say, agrees that they should end the relationship. it was built on fake memories - you could say it was built on lies.
and now Jason has this opportunity to step back and analyze who he is and what he wants.
what he finds is depressing. everything he's had, everything's he's been up till now...
it's not him.
he never wanted to be raised by Lupa and her wolves.
he never wanted to be Jupiter's son
he never wanted to be the exalted leader Camp Jupiter praised him for
From day 1 his life was somebody else's. his first steps were under the tutelage of a wolf, not of the loving eyes of his sister
Camp Jupiter only ever saw him as the demigod to be praised and turn to above all others, even before he became praetor.
Jason's life...was never his own.
and now that he's away from all that pressure and expectation...he doesn't know who he is.
Son of Jupiter?
Champion of Juno?
Praetor of the Twelfth Legion?
Member of the Prophesized Seven?
Hero of Olympus?
no. he was never himself under these names.
he was never...Jason.
but maybe now he could start navigating his own life. without some god intervening for once. this would be good for him, and for Piper, to find their own way.
but then. then they talk to Herophile...and find out one of them will die. And Jason? Well, he's not going to let Piper be taken from the life she deserves. he may not be her boyfriend, her knight in shining armor, but he sure as HELL loves her - especially as a friend. And if there's one thing you should know about Jason? It's that he loves his friends.
so what does he do? He sacrifices himself. He duels Caligula himself, and urges Piper, Meg, and Apollo to Go, save yourselves! and -
he's stabbed. through the chest. the only thing he can do? Look to Apollo, to the blue gaze so much like his own drenched in horror, and ask; Remember. because he didn't get to live the life he wished, but maybe Apollo could - no, Apollo can, he can make the difference Jason wanted. Because he trusts Apollo.
Jason doesn't regret his sacrifice. he saved Piper from the prophecy, after all. He saved Apollo & Meg's lives too.
in fact, Jason didn't really mind dying. Because he didn't have much of a life either. And a life like that? shrug It's worth sacrificing for those who deserve theirs.
and as icing on the cake, remember who Jason's father is? The almighty, all-powerful Jupiter himself, King of the Gods?
he doesn't do a damn thing to help Jason. Not a single. Thing.
because Jupiter/Zeus doesn't care about his children. Especially his sons.
Zeus saved Thalia. But he didn't even try to save Jason.
Trying would have at least lessened the pain...
People like to claim Jason is a bland, boring character who's never suffered a minute in his life. That he's a golden retriever with no flaws.
Well.
Take a look up there and ask yourself - it that the life of a boy who knows no suffering?
Because it sure as hell don't look that way to me.
To me, it looks like Jason was a used, depressed young man who never got to choose his own path. Who's father abandoned him first to his wife's mercy, then to a cruel emperor's.
Jason Grace suffered.
and he never got to live that happy life he saw within the Fates.
Never got to get that family, those grandchildren he saw himself telling the story of the Argo II to.
Because The Fall of Jason Grace is a true, utter tragedy.
#jason grace#i have feeeeelings#remember when people complained about jason being “boring” and then rick was like “okay he's dead now” and then those same people screamed#about never reading toa because “how could rick do that!!! jason was supposed to marry piper and have kids!!!! :(((”#well my friends you DO remember the first page of the lightning thief don't you?#“look i didn't want to be a half-blood”#being a half-blood is dangerous#sometimes it can get you killed in painful nasty ways#~don't say i didn't warn you#- percy jackson#rick warned us at the very beginning#in greek mythology...there's triumph and victory#but the one thing greece is known for in theater?#it's tragedy#and rick perfectly displays it with the fall of jason grace#life's not all sunshine and rainbows#it's not going to be “they all lived happily ever after the end”#it wouldn't be a greek story without tragedy#and really...how many of you ~actually~ cared about jason until he died#hmm?#i'm not judging#i ~was~ one of those people#he wasn't my favorite but i was more...eh about him#he existed for me#until i took a step back and looked at his life and went...#oh.#he's not who i thought he was#and he's not who you think he is either#thank you for coming to my tedtalk#the burning maze

one Draco/Percy soulmate au concept I've had stuck in my head for a very long time is them meeting like super young
Like I'm talking no way to hide it because they're too young to realize that maybe they should
Like Draco barely remembers life before meeting his soulmate young
Point is Draco is not like as mean in this world because of having a good influence
Anyway all that preamble to say I'm thinking about Draco being kind of insufferable about his Soulmate being a prefect and then head boy
like anytime a professor tells the students to follow their prefects somewhere he is immediately at Percy's side instead of you know the actual Prefect he's meant to follow because "You're my prefect" type bs reasoning
and mixing that concept with the whole you can visit your soulmate in their house concept that i really like and you can pull alot of nonsense in those first three years
#percy weasley#draco malfoy#Draco Malfoy/Percy Weasley#We are going with the assumption that Lucius and Narcissa don't really like keep them apart#because it doesn't make sense for them too in a soulmate au to me unless said soulmate was like not a pure blood#Are they happy its a Weasley? No not really. Are they willing to accept it because Family is family and at least he's pure blood? yeah#also if add a sprinkle of in universe losing your soulmate can lead to insanity or something dangerous like that#Then yet another reason to just have them complying#Though I've also been playing in my head with the concept that their parents actually legit got rid of their soulmates because they were#you know not good enough in their eyes and that that plays a part in it too#Like they made a deal with each other to be accepting of anyone it was as long as they were pure or something#Though Percy is 100% expected to take the Malfoy last name#have i made a post like this before??#i cant remember#i have so many soulmate thoughts about these two#would love to do something with them#but most likely will not#Elise's Thoughts and Concepts

When Luke is worried, he fumbles with his bracelet. He doesn’t even notice it.
It usually happens when Lee is away for way too long. Most of the time, it's nothing serious — just some issues at home or picking up his siblings from the strawberry picking, maybe even getting a scratch during Capture the Flag. But there were few instances when Luke genuinely thought he had lost him.
During their first winter, Lee went to spend Christmas, and New Year with his family. It would've been nothing, but he wasn't at camp when he promised and didn't answer any IMs, so Luke left to search for him. He found him far away from his grandma's house, with bruises on his neck and arms, hiding away. Luke didn't want to let him go after that.
(Thankfully, it was just bruises. He managed to escape his mother and her boyfriend's car before anything serious happened. Didn't mean that he was happy about the whole situation.)
The other time, Luke couldn't find him after the end of Capture the Flag. The only reason he found him was because someone was calling for a healer. Luke didn't leave his cot for hours, waiting for Lee to wake up.
(He just hit his head, nothing too bad. But the panic Luke felt when Lee didn't open his eyes after promised two hours were too much. And when Lee started screaming, when he wasn't seeing Luke? Absolutely painful.)
There were many times Luke was worried about Lee, and most of them were just paranoia. But he can never forget the days when it was real and he was scared and praying for his friend's life.
#okay that ended up being too long#i wanted to write some more but i already spoilered enough of my au#just know that when luke gets nervous he has every right to be#i always imagine luke as reckless and lee as responsible but the amount of times lee goes head first into danger is astounding#sometimes literally lol#luke castellan#lee fletcher#btw if you forgot the bracelet luke wears is the same one lee gave him during one of their first interactions#i think i talked about it in one of my different posts#lee fletcher x luke castellan#leeluke#pjo#percy jackson and the olympians#pjo au#ghosty has something to say

alabaster can hide food with his magic and carry it around in his cards. it's way better than any fridge, because food is always hot and fresh like it was just cooked. he always has some on him so he doesn't have to worry about getting starved, like he how did before he joined TA.
will was sick and malnourished when he got kicked out of CHB. he was the only medic with good enough training and who could heal at camp since manhattan happened, so he was always overworking himself. his younger siblings weren't great at healing and apollo wasn't responding to them, so he was the only healer that about twenty kids a day would visit. chiron wasn't always here to help either.
so when al found will he was more than happy to share his food. after traveling and staying together at keeseville for months will recovered back to perfect health and was happier than ever, not having to use his powers every minute a day to save another kid who got their head open falling off the lava wall.
bonus: will knows how to cook thanks to lee (who grew up looking after his little cousins and his sick grandma), so alabaster saves up fresh fruit, vegetables and sometimes meat so will can get something ready for them. it's like a coping mechanism to him, something to get his hands busy with when he gets that itch, when his hands get a little too hot.
(al tried to help him cook, but he almost burnt down the kitchen while kneading the dough. even claymore was disappointed.)
#just think about all the stuff will had to go through after manhattan#just think about all the stuff alabaster had to go through before he joined ta and after#those are child soldiers who cant even catch a break#and they both were refused a safe place where they could get help#just because the gods deemed them “too dangerous”#i mean i can understand this thing with alabaster because he was a ta general#but will is literally a healer who just happened to have plague powers#that he inherited from his FATHER#it's no boy's fault that you have such a weak immune system zeus stfu#will solace#alabaster torrington#willbaster#pjo#percy jackson and the olympians#heroes of olympus#hoo#frog speaks#i need to give this au a name already#som#son of magic#howard claymore

PJO SPOILERS!!!
Am I the only one who thinks some people are being a little harsh on Grover for "snitching" on Percy in Episode 1? I see some people saying Grover's character has been "ruined" by having him "betray" Percy and I'm just over here thinking that gaslighting your best friend for literal MONTHS on end is just as much, if not a worse betrayal then snitching on said friend in order to get them out of the danger zone immediately. Either way you look at it, Grover betrayed Percy in both versions, and honestly I think Grover's snitching was the kinder route to take; at least Percy wasn't questioning his own sanity for months, but a few hours.
And another thing too is that I'm kind of glad their friendship seems a little tense right now in the show, since I felt like in the book, Percy just sort of brushes off being literally lied to and gaslit by Grover for months. Don't get me wrong, I adore their friendship so much but it always kind of bothered me that they never really TALKED about the gaslighting period and how alone that made Percy feel to have even his best friend say everything that happened was all in his head. I don't know, I always just wanted there to be a scene where they actually talked about it and reconcile. So I'm hoping that since the show seems to be putting tension between Percy and Grover right now, that we'll hopefully get a moment of closure and reconciliation between them.
#I'm a TV Grover defender all the way#I love Grover#but you also can't deny that in both the book and show Grover 'betrayed' Percy#so please stop acting like him snitching on Percy is a betrayal when I'd say gaslighting him for months is even worse.#really it was the kinder thing to have Grover snitch on him#and its not like he did for any malicious reason. he was literally trying to just protect Percy be getting him away from the danger zone#if anything they should've tried getting Percy away from Yancy Academy as soon the Mrs. Dodds incident happened-#-rather than keep him there for several more months where more monsters could've easily of tracked him down like Alecto did.#So I'd argue the show actually did the smart thing by getting Percy away from Yancy as soon as possible rather than wait#I rest my case#thanks for coming to my Ted Talk#percy jackson and the olympians#percy jackson#percy jackson tv show#percy jackson series#percy jackson books#books vs show#percy jackson spoilers#grover underwood#my goat son#percy and grover

So their is so sO SO much wrong with the Lightning thief movie But I think my two favorite things that don't make sense are
1) apparently Percy's name is just 'Percy' because he needed help to name a third demigod and he had to look at the Greek to get the name 'Perseus'
2) for some reason their are Thirteen thrones on Olympus. It's goes (right to left) Dionysus, Hephaestus, Hera (a decision to put her here of all places), Hermes, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Zeus (at the head), Athena, Ares, Demeter, Apollo, Artemis, EMPTY THRONE! Why 13? For Hestia? But she doesn't have a throne she gave it up. For Hades? He also doesn't have one on Olympus!
#plus they really tell us everything. their is no showing. its all spelled out! we get shown Percy's dyslexia then hes gotta tell us#he has dyslexia and adhd. we get told the name and description of every god or monster as that shows up#damn have they never heard of show dont tell? and then they show moments and five seconds later they tell us what they JUST showed#percy jackon and the olympians#percy jackson#percy jackson and the lightning thief#the lightning theif#the lightning theif movie#percy jackson movies#then grover is just casually insulting the gods? like they wouldn't just strike him down.#grover#olympus#rick riordan#like we know they didnt read the book but did they even google greek mythology?#archery is just five feet from the Infermery over a walking path? thats nor dangerous at all 🙄 making more work for the poor apollo kids#apparently Aphrodite only has girls and ares only has boys..... for some reason?#no claiming! they just show up and they know whos kid they are? why is luke so pissed then? thats like half of lukes deal is unclaimed kids#Persephone is still in the underworld even though its near the summer solstice and she leaves the underworld in spring#they just mushed Clarisse with Annabeth like 'Annabeth` faught him at the river even though Clarisse did that#i could go on and on and on and on but you get the point
