“no seriously who did you choose?”

“i chose you”

grover and percy are the platonic soulmates. in the most literal sense possible. i mean, literally nobody in the world, including their respective girlfriends, will ever know grover and percy as well as they know each other. and not just because of their empathy link.

grover was the person who was there for percy the most. he helped percy transition from the mortal world into the greek one. he supported percy in tlt when sally was thought to be dead. grover was percy’s first friend. ever. it’s not fair how people keep forgetting that. grover saved percy’s life.

percy literally did NOT hesitate to save grover when he was kidnapped by polyphemus. percy tried his hardest to be there for grover while grover fulfilled his dreams of finding pan. percy and grover travelled through most of the labyrinth together. grover is the foundation of percy’s best traits. percy saved grover’s life.

there is no other friendship in any of riordan’s books that can compare to grover and percy’s. they’re platonic soulmates. there’s no one like them.

Leo: *crying*

Annabeth: what’s with him?

Frank: he asked me what it was like to be a dog, and I told him dogs can’t see rainbows…

Percy: *tears welling in his eyes* they can’t..?

Argo II reunion !!!

(also, quick question, would anyone be interested if I made an insta or X account??)

[1800-lemon-boy]

Imagine 10 year old Nico info-dumping to Bianca about pirates and Greek Heroes.

Now imagine HOO Nico on the Argo 2, looking back at it all and realising he’s basically now a Greek hero AND a pirate, but he isn’t able to info dump to Bianca like he used to. 💀

Imagine him going to tell Bianca before realising-

<33

I absolutely hate when people act like percy and annabeth can't have any other bsfs other than grover , like the number of times i saw people say, "jason wasn't percy bsf !!!" Or "piper wasn't annabeth bsf" LIKE PLS SHUT UP they were absolutely bsfs literally everyone on the Argo were super close and people need to understand that 😭 i alsooo very much hate when people act like nico & leo were bsfs , don't get me wrong i love the idea of them being friends but , I'm pretty sure they never really interacted , like even frank & nico were closer but anywayyy srry for the little yap session 😓

Piper

So this is real random, but in my earlier post about the Lost Trio (this should work as a link: https://www.tumblr.com/memysoulandi/754162180906270720/jason-grace-so-much-potential)

and anyway I feel a need to elaborate on Piper's character as someone said something about her demonizing of femininity understandable to her character and past.

What I meant by this was sort of have her like the dresses, but not the implications of wearing them.

For example, when Aphrodite put her in a gorgeous dress to claim her along with some makeup, instead of her going 'ewwwww I hate wearing dresses and makeup feels so horrible this is so embarrassing gods I despise dresses' instead be like 'Piper didn't like looking this perfect as it reminded her of all the models and actresses and singers who threw themselves at her father and made fools of themselves for a bit of cash'.

Given what kind of movies we can assume Tristan Mclean does, movies with men sweaty and shirtless and woman being helpless stupid love interests who dress in impractical clothes for the film, scream in fear, and wear heels 24/7, Piper probably didn't have the best view of the actresses that she would meet, as she associates them with the 2000's helpless love interests films they act in. She associates being feminine with being weak.

I feel like her journey to accepting herself and her femininity would probably begin with Reyna or Annabeth-Strong powerful woman who are feminine enough-both can rock dresses and war armor just as easily and are, on the outside, sure of themselves and are well-respected. Her lesbian journey should begin with her kinda despising Reyna because she has a crush on her, and everyone mistaking it for jealousy.

On a different note, I feel that Jiper couldn't work out BECAUSE they are opposites, and both are gay.

Piper rejects all stereotypes she faces-being pretty and caring about appearance because she's a woman, the whole 'mess' with being Cherokee and the 'oh your so involved in ur culture ur weird' shit that goes on, being self-absorbed as a daughter of Aphrodite. She makes herself the opposite of these so much, and she turns it into her personality in a way, probably because of negative experiences with Hollywood.

Meanwhile Jason conforms to all his expectation, at least at Camp Jupiter. Be a good leader, be praetor, date Reyna, be strong, be caring, be the best, be handsome, be kind, be straight, be perfect. He's a people pleaser and a perfectionist, and he changes who he is to fit other expectations.

Also their relationship was set up by Hera and Aphrodite and what not healthy for either of them.

Percy Jackson being unhinged

Guys, all the trios from PJO to HoO were all js kids/teens taking the world on their shoulders, have their lives in mortal danger on a daily basis, and have experienced significant amounts of trauma, they're all surprisingly chill.

Percy: Don’t worry, I have a permit. Frank: …This just says “I can do what I want”.

Police Officer: You have the right to remain silent. Leo: I choose to waive that right! Leo: screaming

Jason to Annabeth: Me? I'm the bee knees, but, you? You're just… Leo: Cockroach ankles! Jason: Ye- uh, what?

Annabeth: watching the squad's shenanigans with concern Do you feel like this has gotten out of hand? Piper: I don't know. Feels normal enough for a group that's on 911's blocked callers list. Percy, opening a Capri Sun: Guess I'll drink my sorrows away.

Annabeth: This is a judgement free zone. Pulls out a knife the size of her forearm Annabeth: And I mean it.

Nico: What makes a bigger memory than a passionate kiss? Nico: A stab wound.

[argoii-official]

For Leo. Who do you think you could take on in a fight and win from one of the seven?

[fictionisalwaysbetter]

Sometimes I can’t believe that Jason Grace is like. Dead. At sixteen. Uhm. Hm

[martianbugsbunny]

one of the best parts about writing fanfiction is saying "my fic my rules." the Avengers didn't live in the tower together as a little family? well I think it would be fun and my fic my rules. the crew of the Argo 2 didn't have group sleepovers on the deck to watch the stars on their way to certain doom? well they deserve to have a little chillax and my fic my rules. the Doctor doesn't sleep in a bed? well I think it would be neat for them and my fic my rules. the Fulcrum agents didn't meet in canon? well I think they would be besties and my fic my rules. it just makes the whole thing so much more fun

Sigh here we go

Pjo SCA au

This is mostly based on midrealm stuff, and takes place at pennsic

➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶

•Camp half blood is a household (house chb)

•So is camp Jupiter (house spqr)

•Their camps are right next to each other at pennsic (on heart attack hill)

•Luke is a heavy combat Marshall

•Kayla is green company

•Chiron is a seneschal

•Annabeth does a&s (she’s working on messenger pigeons across pennsic)

•Some people might think I’m gonna say Percy is red company., No, He’s a rapier champion for his barony

•The Argo II is a ship house chb built, it’s on the lake at pennsic (there’s no lake battles at pennsic but it’s still gotta exist)

•Octavian is on the board of directors (I’m not sorry)

•Reyna is in the great dark horde after leaving house SPQR

➴➵➶➴➵➶➴➵➶

I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts!! I’m thinking a ton about this

Being a second gen SCA kid certainly results in interesting ideas



[puzzled-pegasus]

So you know that running joke on the Argo II about how Percy eats so much and from everyone else's POV it's seen as quirky or unusual? It's quite possible that his open enthusiasm about food is weird to the others because he's actually the only one who's normal/healthy abt food.

Think about it. Leo's been through food insecurity and he may have issues with it because of the way his body looks. He's also a workaholic and generally probably doesn't really have a very good sense of when or what he needs to eat to feel better. Annabeth might be similar, not being able to sense her hunger cues very well because of Trauma (TM) and the way she gets sucked into her hyperfixations.

Piper and Frank might both be conscious about their weight, Piper because of bullying and her Hollywood environment and Frank because he's always been so big naturally and his grandmother probably verbally abused the hell out of him for his weight.

I think Jason skips meals as a form of self-punishment if he doesn't feel like he's earned it. He also wants to make sure everyone else on his team has had what they want to eat before he gets to have any.

Hazel straight up lived in the depression, so food was probably rationed. She was also a girl in the 40s and body shaming was on a whole other level of ridiculous back then so I can't blame her for feeling like she needs to restrict for a few reasons.

And then there's Percy, whose mother did the best she could to make sure her son had a healthy relationship with eating and food. She didn't always have money, but she showed her love through food and treats as much as she could and together they created their blue food tradition. This means that Percy now is excited about food and can probably better measure his hunger cues than anyone else on that ship. This is a good thing not only for him, but if he shows confidence in the way he eats what he likes until he's satisfied and stops when he's full, it might give his friends social cues that they're allowed to eat like he does.

Percy, of course, would be happy to know he's helping them...but right now, he's too excited about those pancakes.

i have suddenly become obsessed with a theme that HoO established but never proceeded to extrapolate on, which is:

You are Percy Jackson, and you have been swapped with a boy who was allegedly everyone's favorite person, but they have decided to replace him with you. They just met you. You stand next to his best friend and the people he's known his entire life. In his home. In his cloak. In his place. They stopped looking for him.

You are Jason Grace, and you have just found out you have a long lost sister who completely replaced you in her life with this girl you just met. Your lives and personalities are mirrors. She is you, living the life you were robbed of.

You are Annabeth Chase, and you have just become starkly aware that you have been inhabiting the void left behind by your best friend's long lost brother. You and Luke were just replacements for him. Now you have to look him in the eyes when he has nothing and know you took that life from him.

You are Piper McLean, and you have just found out your relationship is fake and built entirely on the memories of Annabeth Chase. You have been given a boyfriend when hers has been taken away. You have no idea how much of it is real or not but regardless you feel like if your relationship isn't exactly in their image that you have failed.

You are Leo Valdez, and you have just learned that you are the echo of your great-grandfather. You are not your own person. You just exist to be a mirror of him. A doppelganger. An actor and stunt double facing all the danger he never had to but wearing his face. To be there for his best friend decades later simply because he couldn't. You are playing a role. A seventh wheel and a pawn for a goddess who carefully sculpted your entire life for her own purposes.

You are Hazel Levesque, and the only reason you are alive is because your brother couldn't save your his sister. You are a consolation prize. An apology. Your existence here is misplaced in every way but you inhabit it anyways.

You are Frank Zhang, and you are a shapeshifter. Inhabiting your own body feels strange and clumsy when you could be literally anything at any time. You are anything and everything and live your life with the simple certainty of knowing exactly how you will die.
