Thaluke! And clarisse x chris !

Thaluke:

when I started shipping it if I did: When I first read the PJO books,perhaps. I've shipped them almost a decade and half,lol.

my thoughts: I love the canon tragedy of Luke and Thalia,but I also find myself reading cute fics of Thalia and Luke as adults sometimes,lol.

What makes me happy about them: How long-lived the fandom is.

What makes me sad about them: "He's dead,she's immortal".

things done in fanfic that annoys me: Whenever Luke is treated as a punching bag and just takes it. I can see him understand he massively fucked up and accepting people ressenting him,but this is Luke Castellan we're talking about. The guy would at least try to defend himself and/or flee the place.

things I look for in fanfic: Fics where Thalia leaves the Hunt,Luke somehow is alive and they gradually get together,canon be damned.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: I only ship Thalia with Luke. And age-appropriate Luke/Piper(either a-year-after-the-pinetree Luke/TLH-Piper because they're both 15,or Post-TLO Luke with 19+yo Piper. The latter one seems more possible because Underworld shenanigans).

My happily ever after for them: The thing I look on fics,plus them living a domestic life - slice-of-life,but with all the weirdness seen on the books. The best of both canon and non-canon,if I might.

who is the big spoon/little spoon: They alternate,depending on the mood.

what is their favorite non-sexual activity: Either karaoke or reading. Luke gets books in any language but English(Hermes is the god of language and travelers,so Luke got insta-fluency powers. It takes a bit of a toll on him,tho),Thalia has to settle for audiobooks because her dyslexia is particularly severe. Also,they're both avid ficwriters and get very passionate about their interpretations.

Clarisse x Chris

when I started shipping it if I did: Soon after reading BOTL,lol.

my thoughts: I love how it showed Clarisse's soft side and started her friendship with Silena(and maybe Beckendorf).

What makes me happy about them: How long-lived and dedicated the fandom is.

What makes me sad about them: Nothing really,lol.

things done in fanfic that annoys me: Whenever Silena is inserted as a romantic option for Clarisse. I never liked that pairing,lol.

things I look for in fanfic: Follow up to what happened in later PJO books.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: No one,lol.

My happily ever after for them: The thing I look on fics,plus them living a domestic life - slice-of-life,but with all the weirdness seen on the books. The best of both canon and non-canon,if I might.

who is the big spoon/little spoon: Clarisse is the little spoon.

what is their favorite non-sexual activity: Watching American Pie-style comedies and practicing competitive sports - both individual and collective. They're both athletic and competitive people.

@luxcruor replied: thalia; it’s fiiiine. he turned me into a pinetree to protect the camp i pretty much died for its fiiiiine .

broker: ...

broker: how resistant to bolts of time or truth do you think the gods are? why am i asking you, child, i would know best. i'm off to see a king.

[sweetxloverxx]

"Absolutely!" She nods, leading him out of the cabin.

"So this is the common area, where you'll see a lot of inter-cabin mingling. Directly East us are the showers and bathrooms. Though each cabin does have a small bathroom with one toilet, sink, and shower."

"Directly north of us is the Mess Hall, I'll show you how to get there at dinner. Directly south of us is The Big House, Where Chiron and Mr. D reside. Directly west is the Arena, further west is the armory and the Pegasus Stables."

"Further east of the bathrooms is the canoe lake. Northeast is home to the Amphitheater and the lava covered climbing wall. Because we face....so much lava in our time here at camp." She shakes her head.

"Anyway, Northwest is home to the camp woods. which in-and-of-itself is home to Zeus' fist, which is really just a pile of rocks, and the labyrinth, yes, Dedalus' Labyrinth!"

"Southeast you have Arts-and-Crafts, the Volleyball Court, and Half-Blood Hill, which is the entrance to camp, and home to Thalia's Pinetree. Though Thalia isn't in the Pinetree anymore. That's a question you ask a camper that's been here longer than me though, that was before my time."

She shakes her head more aggressively this time, as if to refocus.

"Finally, southwest! There you have The Forge and the Strawberry Fields!"

She takes a big breath.

"And that's camp!"

“Hello?”

Tiberius steps into the cabin, looking around cautiously.

“Anyone here?”

@strongarmsstrongerheart

Haven, who'd just returned from Olympus, looks up.

"Hello! Are you new?" She smiles.

Riordan sucks at timelines, but Annabeth is indeed older than Percy by a month. In hoh says her bday is july 12 and i think i saw something about that in one of riordans websites

Yup, and that is still Rick playing lord of time, since she was at least half a year younger than him and Tyson in Demigod Files (it fits too, since Percy always turns a year older at the end of the summer so he's a few weeks short of 13 at the time when she says she's been at the camp since she was 7 and has been there for 5 years, making her 12)

[wovenpetal-a]

BTW:  in some verses my thalia won’t be physically 15.  i still won’t really do 18+ with her bc in her cannon she’s forever physically at 15 due to joining the hunters of artimis JUST before turning 15.     ( and that’s after being a pinetree for like..15 years.) so mentally and according to her birthdate she’s 23.  it’s a fucking mess and i kinda... hate they shoved thalia into the maiden trope.  bc she’s a punk.  she’s a feminist.  i’m just.  u gh . explaining her age is such a hassle to people who don’t know the books. and i think she deserves to be able to hang out with ppl her age. 

SO.  in some verses she’s going be 23. and i mean 23. BUT AGAIN.  no 18+ stuff.   

[liveshaunteda]

anyway, jason totally gets a tattoo to remind him of thalia and, to the shock of everyone, luke too. because luke was a big part of his life. luke was misguided and while jason is still upset over the way luke did things, he at the time of the tattoo being itched into his skin, has forgiven luke. this is like when jason is like twenty three.

he is also the sentimental type and would end up with one for like everyone. like a full on sleeve on his left arm. like there is an owl for annabeth, a pinetree / agesis for thalia, wings for luke, waves for percy, hearts for silena, for piper, corssed hammers for beckndorf, for leo. spear for clarisse

[upatnight0]

There's also Sea of Monsters:

At this point of time, Thalia is a pinetree and Luke has defected so she can't even interact with either of them. And the memories are of 3 kids trying to survive on the streets.

Percy basically says the equivalent of = He's annoyed Annabeth had a life before she met him. One she can't even go back to.

But now, when Piper is worried about Jason returning to Reyna, its selfish and toxic and possessive, huh...

So when Grover said that he thought Annabeth was thinking of joining the Hunters and Percy's reaction was that he wanted to strangle these girls who looked 10-14, who had done nothing but mind their own business;

And he actually does try to stop her on Mount Olympus when he thinks thats whats going to happen...

I just know that if this had been in Annabeth or Piper's POV, the antis would have come running to label them as toxic, possessive and controlling.

Guess the same doesn't apply if its Percy...

[liveshaunted-moved]

jason would have held on tightly when thalia was brought back, everyone giving them the space for them to talk it out, and maybe with annabeth and then, the two deciding they’re the ones to break the news about luke

also, i wonder what would thalia think about the piercing jason got, and he tells it, i got it bc it reminded me of you, to be more like you

jason probably took longer then annabeth to realise luke’s ‘changes’ and accept it not just because he’s technically known luke longer but because he was extremely blinded by it, and extremely refused to believe that luke of all people would do that. he denied it so deeply but at the same time, refuted everything luke afterwards. it was like he believed it but at the same time, he really couldn’t and it was tearing up his heart and head that someone he cared and someone who he thought cared about him would do that.

having jason’s trust, now is a thing to hold onto, because when his memories come back, or even the ghost of a memory / the feelings that come with them - his trust in people is harder to give, and once it’s lost, it’s even harder to gain back. he won’t know why, ever truly know why this happens until he get’s every memory back when he goes to the underworld when he dies. that is when he get’s the full memory of his time at camp half blood, of luke’s betrayals ( he was only told of a few ; NO ONE dared told him luke poisoned thalia’s tree )

the grace siblings both put others before themselves. both would die for their friends, if the occasion arises.

when thalia had come back, the zeus cabin wasn’t as cold and unlived in, as jason had been in there, for the past five years. he had a bed, and put up a headboard to block out his father’s statue as much as possible.

he totally slept next to her for like at least two weeks when she came back to life. it was more of a way to let him KNOW she is truly here and alive and this wasn’t some sick dream.

by the time tlh events come around, with jason w/ his memories all scrambled, he still finds that picture, but he can still only pinpoint his sister who he was next to, even though annabeth is right there - he can’t pick her out, nor can he luke. until a few months later down the track

jason is no stranger to being in the sky, and maybe it’s due to his parentage. in fact he feels at home when he is in the sky, and flying is something that makes him feel at peace. he has been flying since he was four years old. there was a time when he was scared of flying is when he scared thalia about it. but then he got comfortable once he could control it.

he would often, take annabeth on flights when they were younger, and sometimes luke. camp could often find jason flying around when was bored.

*SLAMS FIST DOWN* jason never once blamed grover for thalia’s death, and would often try to tell him this. but jason thinks that grover thinks he was saying it just to be nice, but jason genuinely meant it, every time. jason may have been six when it happened, and some of the people who did ‘blame’ grover for it thought jason just didn’t understand, but jason did, grover’s task was to get them to halfblood hill, he did just that - but jason also knew his sister. his sister would die before she let anything happen to her friends, especially if that monster was after her. jason was the first ever member of groverprotectionsquad! and you can not change my mind

jason has issue’s of abandonment. i’ll write about this a thousand times. his mother, was barley there ( either physically or mentally ), his sister would go to school and he would be home, his father? never there. thalia dying, the border not truly letting him in bc it senses he is not greek. luke, when he does that, annabeth w/ her friendship w/ percy - some part of him was like, she will leave me for him completely, he knew it was irrational but that didn’t stop it. the ‘being taken away’ from chb, then from cj. the memory of the day his mother was going to abandon him.

all of jason’s tattoo’s are more for reminders of people, and those he cared about. they;re for personal reminders, of the love he’s been given, to remember those lost so they never will be forgotten. they also serve as a reminder that he is loved, that people do care about him even when he feels like they don’t, or that they will abandon him

most fears that the children of the big three have are gained when it comes to relation to their parent’s domains due to an experience happening, and jason fully believes himself to be the reason thalia is afraid of heights.

it was just after they had gone on the run, before they meet luke, when jason clutching on so tightly to his older sister’s hand got so scared, he jumped and the winds carried him up and up and up.

he realised what he was doing when thalia had screamed out because he had just lost grip on his sister. luckily enough, jason floated back down and so did thalia landing safely on the ground, as they hovered above the ground for a few minute until thalia could properly place her feet on the ground. jason apologised over and over and over, and didn’t stop until he fell asleep against his sister in a makeshift shelter.

jason would admit but not open. you could ask him, and nine times out of ten, he’d answer ‘yes, i do have a crush on *insert name*’ other times he will just shake his head, and go ‘no.’ even if he did

not saying jason picked up a few things from luke… but he picked up a few things from luke, like… uh how to steal  

anyway, jason totally gets a tattoo to remind him of thalia and, to the shock of everyone, luke too. because luke was a big part of his life. luke was misguided and while jason is still upset over the way luke did things, he at the time of the tattoo being itched into his skin, has forgiven luke. this is like when jason is like twenty three.

he is also the sentimental type and would end up with one for like everyone. like a full on sleeve on his left arm. like there is an owl for annabeth, a pinetree / agesis for thalia, wings for luke, waves for percy, hearts for silena, for piper, corssed hammers for beckndorf, for leo. spear for clarisse

when luke left, someone had too step up to the plate to teach sword lessons, and jason was offered a spot to help, when others couldn’t. and for a while, he was worried. worried that the others would think he would turn like luke did. also, he knows that the on;y reason that some of the kids listened to his lessons, his lessons taught by a 11/12 year old, is because his father is ‘zeus’ and he hated that fact.

he hated it, and preferred to to spar against clarisse because she didn’t care who his father was, and when annabeth & percy get back to camp, with them too.

Every year on his birthday, Jason would be at the Thalia’s tree most of the day. every year, without fail, on thalia’s birthday you would find jason sitting near thalia’s tree. he’d miss his activities. just to sit there, and be there with her - even if she might not know he was there.

jason has a fear of losing those he cares about, or being abandoned, because when thalia does come back, she tells him the story of that day, of how something didn’t sit right. and then, of course, when hera does finally get her claws into jason? he realises that his mother was going to abandon him, that fear he has had since then. honestly, every time thalia went to school, he feared she wouldn’t come back. and boy did that get worse when he did lose her, first to death, then to the hunters. and then, both camps never went looking for him. granted, chb thought he was dead, but no one questioned why his body wasn’t found, they just put it down to a monster getting it.

jason, when nico first arrived was jealous of nico. in the sense that, nico was this ten year old kid who was so full of life, who thought being a demigod and that the gods being real was awesome, and would be fun experience. because, jason never had that. he never knew or thought of the demigod life to be a fun experience. it’s always been monsters and on the run, or holed up at camp, training.

he was jealous of the carefree ease nico had upon learning that those things in his game were real.

jason full on blames hades for what he did to his sister, he doesn’t blame grover despite grover blaming himself. he only blames one person, and one person alone, and that is hades. hades is the reason he lost his sister and he will never get over that fact. but he won’t let this cloud his emotions when ti comes to nico & hazel

jason would have volunteered for the quest given to the hunters & camp, but… he didn’t like the hunters all that much, for trying to lure his sister away, and annabeth. to him, them trying to recruit the girls, was like them trying to tear apart his own little family that he loved and cared about.

it took jason a very long time to accept luke’s betrayal. a lot of time spent alone in his cabin because, well, annabeth went off to her father - and she would have been the one person he would have talked too. so basically, it’s like… he’s six years old again and only talking to luke & annabeth, except, this time non of them are here

people at camp, asking if jason and luke are related, via mortal parent and jason just, accepting it because he is just like, in so much awe of luke. luke who took care of him and helped him and his sister, and annabeth.

jason, feeling sick when people tell him he reminds them of luke after the betrayal because it hurts him. because he use to be so proud of that fact, and now, it’s a tainted thought due to luke’s actions.

cold and unlived in, as jason had been in there, for the past five years. he had a bed, and put up a headboard to block out his father’s statue as much as possible. he totally slept next to her for like at least two weeks when she came back to life. it was more of a way to let him KNOW she is truly here and alive and this wasn’t some sick dream.

while, when sent to camp jupiter, all his memories of camp half blood were erased. his ones of thalia weren’t. so, each time his memories were erased, thalia was always constant in staying in his memories, it’s just that his memories in the camp jupiter period painted thalia as a mortal sibling

upon losing his memory, he lost all the greek he learnt. as in he can no longer speak it as fluently as he could before when he learnt it from being at camp half blood. it was lost. and latin came so much easier to him, this happened both times, and he had to re learn greek again

when jason loves, he loves with all his heart. and not just romantically, but platonically as well. he puts himself fully into his relationships, but he still has trouble opening up about certain things especially with his memory loss.

if you don’t think jason was in on nico being a child of hades you are wrong! he was. he even spent a few days outside of camp trying to find him - but something happened and he almost died and if it weren’t for grover, jason might not have made it back to camp.

jason considers grover a close friend and he does not blame grover at all for thalia’s ‘death’

jason grace is a sap, and everyone knows this. he tries to hide it from others he isn’t close to - but he fucking is a sap

jason likes to spar more against children of war god/dess because they provide a greater challenge to him

upon learning the roman fighting, that sticks to jason. he doesget some of his greek fighting back, but the roman style feels more natural to him

jason’s short term memory ends up being a bit faulty. he’s been knocked in the head so many times, coupled with the twice blessed amnesia. sometimes it can take up to five times repeating something for it too fully sink it. for him to remember the time he needs to be somewhere etc.

when thalia was brought back, the first thing jason ever fucking does once they’re both in the boarder is hug the ever loving shit out of his sister. probably cried too.

and upon losing his memory a second time, i believe that someone would have tried to hide any photos that including jason in them, taking them out of cabin one before jason went in again. because, if someone took his memories, they don’t want to give him a huge shock - doing it under hypnosis is different for the state of mind being dull and luring them out, where as a photo would shock them out.

there are only a few select people that know that jason has lost his memory twice. those include, his sister, the seven, nico, and reyna. other then that, he will only let you know he lost it that one time.

if you think for one minute that jason, after finding out about luke’s betrayal didn’t go to thalia’s tree, and sat there and cried his eyes out, you are wrong. because he did. he didn’t want to burden annabeth, who was going to give living with her father a second chance.

jason, after being able to pass the boarder, sticks to the side of the tree that touches just within the boarder.

he can not be near mr d for too long, because it starts to give mr d an identity crisis, and he tends to switch between both dionysus and bacchus.

jason would class clarisse as a friend or at the lowest, someone he can trust - because, she never changed the way she acted around him, or percy when she finds out who their parents are. that makes him have some respect for her.

there were two reasons why jason never left camp until the battle of manhattan. one being that he felt that he wouldn’t be able to get back in without permission again, and also because chiron feared for jason’s safety if he were to leave, and fear of jason finding out about both camps because as it was, jason should not have been at camp half blood in the first place

Jason, wearing his sister’s jacket and never letting it go. That, besides the tree, are practically the only thing he has left off her.

Him, within the first few months, not sleeping in his cabin but curled up under the tree. Not feeling right unless under the tree, under his sister’s protection.

Desperately clinging to Annabeth and Luke, and going to them when the stares of the other campers get too much. Because either they love him, or they hate him, for who is father is. Not feeling like be belongs because he is roman, not greek but doesn’t realise this until his sixteenth birthday and no choice has been made from him to save the world.
