With A Week Left Of The 2024 Olympics, Its Time For An Olympics AU!

With a week left of the 2024 Olympics, it’s time for an Olympics AU!

Kicking things off with our swimming prodigy turned diver, Percy Jackson.

Can we please stop making unwanted, antagonistic rivalries between Percy and the people he genuinely cares about? It's getting tiresome.

Like, some of y'all act like Percy killed Bianca and then laughed in Nico's face with how much part of the fandom likes to act like Percy doesn't care. They'll talk about how he said that he wanted to cut Nico's 'stupid head off,' like he would ever actually do that. Like the same guy who hesitated to harm Luke when he was possessed by Kronos would actually follow through on what was a visceral reaction to betrayal when Percy knew that people's lives were on the line. Like he didn't spend months and months of searching for Nico, concerned for his safety. Like he didn't hide his parentage, wanting to make sure that the other campers didn't treat him differently as a son of Hades. Like he didn't steel his resolve to be the one to fulfill the prophecy so Nico wouldn't be in more danger than necessary. Like he didn't introduce Nico when he first appears in Percy's dream in the Last Olympian as 'My friend, Nico.'

And then there's Leo. And sure, Leo was angry at Percy at first because Calypso thought he had abandoned her to her fate, and that was the side of the story that Leo heard. But some people act like he actually did so, ignoring the fact that he made the gods promise on the River Styx to free her, something that they were then bound to do. And then he was kidnapped and put to sleep for months with his memories wiped. Where on earth would he have had the time to ensure they kept their promise? Even Leo, who still didn't know the whole story, essentially went, "Damn you, you're impossible to stay mad at." Yes, they had a rocky start, but they do form a genuine friendship.

And Will. While I think it be cool to explore how Will felt during the second Titan war, and all the angst that came with it, I don't think he'd blame Percy for Michael's death. Perhaps at first, or maybe even as a little voice in the back of his head, but that isn't going to stop him caring about the campers, Percy included. Y'all act like he wouldn't chain Percy to an infirmary bed if he learned just how many times Percy has had suicidal thoughts or feelings.

The cognitive dissonance of some of the Annabeth Stans should be studied seriously. They’ll write a long ass post about how badass and amazing she is while making her out to be a disgusting individual without even realizing it.

Annabeth: -and that's why I was so mean to you and Rachel. I have abandonment issues. But now since you're my boyfriend and Rachel has her Oracle chastity vows, it's no longer a problem!

Percy: But you didn't act out like that to Mr. D and Tantalus when Chiron - your father figure - was forced to leave in SoM? You didn't act out like that to Artemis or the hunters when Thalia left you for the hunt? You don't act out when Grover - your oldest friend - leaves for months at a time with no contact?

Annabeth:

Percy:

Annabeth: Alright fine. It was jealously and possessiveness! Can we move on? It doesn't matter, you're mine.

Percy: It matters! She didnt deserve that and neither did I! I'm my own person, I'm allowed to have friends that aren't you!

You’ll always be a part of me~ I’m part of you indefinitely~

Percy has watched Mariah Carey’s Always Be My Baby music video, which is where he got the idea of the underwater kiss in the first place

A little headcanon of mine that Sally Jackson was a Mariah Carey’s Lamb in the '90s. 1995 when this song came out, she sang it to a 2 year old Percy, lullaby him to sleep, with doo doo doop doo doo do dum and their favorites are the outro adlibs
