Katniss: "This Fake Relationship With Peeta Is Such A Burden To Me. I Know He's In Love With Me But I

Katniss: "This fake relationship with Peeta is such a burden to me. I know he's in love with me but I wish he'd stop acting like it because it makes me feel guilty and awful."

Also Katniss, when Peeta doesn't act like the most perfect, loving, devoted boyfriend:

percabeth fic recs

aka; im too lazy to produce my own content so here’s some good ones

**i included my favorite percabeth fic writers and links to my favorite  ♥  story they’ve posted**

rachel  ♥  @rongasm

“Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase are soul mates. They know this because the small Timers on their inner wrists tell them that they are meant to be together– and not because they’ve chosen each other. In theory, it will be easy for Annabeth to keep up the wall that surrounds her heart and stop herself from falling for Percy. In execution? Well, that’s a completely different story. “

this is probably my favorite soulmate au?? her writing style flows really well and annabeth’s characterization is spot on

jess  ♥ @greenconverses

“Annabeth’s life can be characterized in two parts: before and after the fall. This is the beginning of the second half. Post-Mark of Athena.”

lightly done angst is probably my favorite thing in the world and thiS IS SO GOOD

sri  ♥ @piperreynas

“the thing about being on opposite sides of a war: someone always has to lose.” in which annabeth defects to kronos’ side in the first titan war with luke. au.

or: percabeth does skyeward.

um?? sri is most probably the best person in the world and her fics reflect that. just read it and everything else she’s wrote + her femslash stuff is to die for  im still salty about the fact that we’re the same age and she’s 100x more talented hoW

hannah  ♥ @ignitesthestars

It’s like this every time. She can remember thinking, four years ago now, that she didn’t know if it hurt more being with him, or without him. And every time the months and the distance stretches out a little further between them, she convinces herself that they’re definitely better apart. That a scarred heart is better than an open wound with him lodged inside it.

And then they see each other again, and she’s pitched right back into that uncertainty. Three and a half years should be enough to get over a boy, shouldn’t it?

A story of how Annabeth and Percy fell apart, and what it took to piece them back together.

break up fics are amazing period, but let’s just say that this is the type of writing i aspire to have

fee  ♥ @lesbabeths

another break up fic, but i love everything about this one + fee also has excellent femslash

rachel  ♥ @somethingmorecreative1

Annabeth wasn’t sure how she was going to help Percy. How could she get the upset look on his face to go away? How could she get him to feel better and maybe realize that he was okay? In which, Percy isn’t okay unless Annabeth is there, and thank god that she is. Percabeth. Two part story.

she writes best friend mortal percabeth so,, good,, and this is so fluffy and dfhjsdfkf

may  ♥ @maydayparade8123​

After a brief, fearful heart flutter, Percy gives her a sidelong glance of recognition. He might still be a little fearful. Sure, the town he and his mom live in now isn’t all that big, but what are the chances of someone else choosing to run on this particular backroad? He’d chosen the one the furthest away from the main road for a reason. “Fancy seeing you here,” he greets drily, not losing step in the slightest.

Annabeth Chase gives him a significant look. “Good runners choose good roads, I guess.”

OR - Annabeth’s the girl who hardly ever loses a race, and Percy’s the new kid who doesn’t have time for track team. It’s a love story waiting to happen.

i don’t think may writes for pjo anymore which is sad but she has so many great stories and i love?? that it’s light and sweet??

ashlee  ♥ @bananannabeth​

Percy and Annabeth lean on each other to recover after Tartarus, but as the rest of their friends slowly settle back into a semblance of normalcy they realise that maybe they’re holding each other back from healing. Scared of being too codependent and hurting in ways she doesn’t want Percy to see, Annabeth makes the painful decision to take a break – a choice which impacts Percy, all of their friends and herself in ways she’d never imagined.

another break up fic? who couldve predicted. i also love the balance in this one and it just flows

mina ♥ @suchastart​

Falling in love isn’t the hardest fall. A collection of stories that follow Percy and Annabeth throughout their relationship, from the beginning to the end.

these are all so interesting and the contrast between them is nice

annie  ♥ @chasejackson​

i came for the pjo, i stayed for the vld

hannah  ♥ @ananbeth​

Since the fall of Jason Grace and the Jaeger Bronco Thunder, Percy Jackson seeks a new co-pilot. First Lieutenant Annabeth Chase oversees the cadet trials. She is not impressed by the results.

pacific rim aus are always great, and these fics have really consistent writing 

artemisrae ♥ @artemisrae​

He doesn’t tell her because he promised.

i dont really read nsfw stuff so i havent read the majority of these, but the quality is So Good

vani ♥ @seaweedbraens​

Annabeth thought she was right on track until the universe just decided to give her a red string that just so happened to link to her best friend, forcing her to face her dormant feelings and effectively screwing up her life for good.

more soulmate au? my longest yeah boi ever. but i love the concept of soulthreads and shes so good at writing best friends

romanitas ♥ @romanitas​

Sneaking in and out of Annabeth’s dorm is always an interesting and challenging experience, for all parties involved. Especially with nuns.

some more light stuff, with appearances from the rest of the seven as an added bonus

ashley ♥ @gr33kg0ds​

Here, at the very bottom of the world, underneath the waves, was the most beautiful world you could ever imagine. In its vastness there was nothing but peace, cliffs of ice not only reached miles above the sea, but below it as well. Whales ten times his size swam by, giving him nothing but a questioning gaze, and even they seemed to small in comparison to ocean down here.

maybe check out my stuff? my ao3 is a barren wasteland sorry + my edits tag if you’re interested x

"annabeth chase is an cold and emotionless character"

the judge: please rise, defendent, you have the right to address the court. do you wish to say anything in your defense?

the canonical teddy bear in her camp trunk pulling up like:

We could tell bc your attachment to moon

In Japanese, they don’t say “moon,” they say “tsuki,” which literally translates to “moon,” and I think that’s how language works.

Here's a website where Palestine GoFundMes are vetted and shared that you can send out to people. The url is gazafunds.com

Easy to use and simple. Just share the site whenever someone asks for GFMs for Palestine.

The way haters just boil Annabeth's character to just insulting Percy and not seeing theres more to her really shows how much they dont get her. Honestly Percy would hate them for this...

thanks for the ask @emilia9622!

agreed completely. like if you want to dislike a character, go for it. but don’t lie to yourself. don’t base it all off of one thing or flaw and make it 100x bigger than it is.

for instance, i don’t like luke. but it’s for a multitude of reasons. he knowingly betrayed all his friends several times, fought a deadly war against them, and intentionally poisoned the camp. he was percy’s first friend at camp and was a mentor to him, but had no issues lying to him and deceiving him. he literally was fine with the idea of 12 year old little percy being dragged down to tartarus. he also let annabeth be kidnapped and forced to hold up the world. when he finally saw thalia alive, he fought her and tried to harm her. yes i know that there is very complex trauma and history that led to all his actions, and i really do feel so bad for him, but i can’t respect someone who betrays his close friends like that. no matter what. i could go on and on, and don’t get me started about him having romantic feelings for annabeth… UGH. but that said, i understand why people love his character. he’s complex and has a lot of really good history. he also has a wonderful, yet tragic, redemption at the end. he really deserved better. i don’t have love for him, but his character deserves love. i’m happy that there are people to love him so that i don’t have to, because i have personal reasons for not liking him. i think luke is an amazingly well written character and i think rick wrote him beautifully. the truth is, besides the singular part where he admitted he had feelings for annabeth, i wouldn’t change anything about him or his story. so personally, i don’t like him, but i think he’s a great character and objectively, i can see why people love him.

it’s okay to dislike a character. but don’t pick their biggest flaws, strip away all the good parts of the character, and fool yourself into believing that’s all they are. (and then continue to go on tumblr and scream about how toxic and terrible the character is 🙄)

this is what “people can’t handle complex characters” actually means. people often throw that phrase around. people say that about readers not liking jason all the time, but the truth is, people are fully entitled to not like jason. it doesn’t make sense to me, because i LOVE jason. he’s my cutie patootie. but the people who dislike him simply don’t like him. they don’t usually make him out to be someone he’s not, they just don’t like him for who he is. they often just don’t find him interesting enough to break down the more complex parts of his character. it breaks my heart, and i don’t understand, but that’s okay. they just don’t like him. there’s nothing else to it. most annabeth haters, however, make her out to be someone she’s not and then proceed to hate on that one self-generated version of her. it’s so toxic. THAT is not being able to handle a complex character

no, annabeth is not perfect. if she was, she would be unrealistic, and people would hate her for that too. yes, she has excessive pride. she tends to think herself above others, and yes that even includes percy at times. but you know what? she admitted to having that issue all the way back in book 2. she was literally 13 when she explained to percy what hubris is and how it’s her biggest downfall. she’s a self aware queen. she knows it’s an issue and she works hard to correct it in little ways and make sure the people around her, especially percy, know she values them and their opinions. anyone who read the heroes of olympus series unbiased and got to read her POV knows that annabeth holds percy in the highest regard. she respects the hell out of him. even though sometimes she says things that aren’t nice, she doesn’t truly feel that way and always corrects it in some way. she’s not selfish, she’s just tragically intelligent, and it naturally gives her a bit of a complex. it wouldn’t make sense if it didn’t.

and i love her for it. the fact that she has a real flaw that can affect relationships, but that she is self aware of and actively works on, makes her legit one of my favorite characters ever. she’s SO realistic.

but people take that one flaw and make it her whole character. they call her cold and harsh, when in reality she’s one of the most warm and sensitive people in the series. she takes care of her friends. she’s strong and she’s often the leader, but it’s because she’s so loving and kind all the time. she works hard and looks out for everyone. she makes friends fast for a reason. she’s a wonderful person. she’s so, so sweet, and it breaks my heart that people choose to take that away from her.

anyway, sorry i just word vomited so much. basically i agree 100%.
