Baseball Player! Percy Jackson X Reader

Baseball Player! Percy Jackson x Reader

warnings; none ! author's notes; oooo how i love baseball player Percy headcanons.. i eat up every single moodboard people make of him it's insane !!! watched an entire Yankees game while writing this too sooo.. (Juan Soto come home the kids miss you😞)

behind the lovely Sally Jackson herself, you're his biggest fan !!

there's nobody louder than you two cheering Percy's name

he gives you his training jersey because of course he does.

this man's ego inflates tenfold whenever you wear it too

especially if it's a jersey with his last name on it too

he's has a million thoughts going through his head about everything ever

in his defense, you look really good with a big 03 on your back so he's not complaining !

you know how players like.. run the top of the bat over the sand ?(i can't explain this but y'all know what i mean)

well he does your initial

nobody really questions it either

he does it in games, in practice, everything

watches every single Yankees game(me too)

he actually daydreams about playing for them it's kinda cute

he's a die hard New Yorker what can i say ?

you could start dating him not even caring about baseball and 3 months in you know almost all the rules and top players

he's a bit of a yapper-

anyways !

he brings you to the batting cage with him

mainly because he's a show off but also because he wants to teach you how to play !

of course he won't force you

but that dorky smile on his face when he sees you try is well worth the terror of getting hit in the face

good luck kisses good luck kisses good luck kisses good luck kisses good lu-

you get the point

also kisses for winning or losing

usually winning because he's an absolute UNIT on his team

has you initials embroidered onto his hat im afraid

likes pitching but is an insane hitter

jack of all trades if you will

if you won't that's alright too

you make him those really cool gift boxes

you made one for him after his last game of the season and he actually cried

he never takes off/gets rid of whatever you gave him

plus you bring snacks so his team is obsessed with you

they ask more about you than they do Percy i'm not even kiddin'

uhhh possibly, maybe is on his best performance all the time but ESPECIALLY when you come to his games + practices

his coach literally encourages you to come because of this fact

calls you his lucky charm

"Everytime you come, we always win !" as if he doesn't always play well

which you explained to him, to which he brushed off and ignored

".. You're initials on my hat helped ?"

he's trying okay ?

the first time you took him to an actual MLB game he lost it

peppered you and kisses and couldn't sit still the whole time

he was the loudest one in the stadium i can tell you that much !

would also FREAK if he got his bat signed by his favorite player

who that may be is entirely up to y'all

i feel like he follows the necklace tradition so he wears a little locket that has a picture of you two in it

you are the only person that can touch his bat

he considers it bad luck for anybody else except you

that's all of my long windedness for tonight im afraid loves🗣️

i love you baseball and i love you more Percy Jackson !!

today 11:39 AM

                                             i’m like 5 mins away

                                  read 11:40 A.M.

horse whisperer 😐

Perfect, I’ll cya soon 

after swiftly sending a quick text to your boyfriend, you slip your phone into your back pocket and continue walking. it’s finally spring break, meaning a week of much needed time off from school. during this break, percy decided to make it his life’s mission to convince you to learn how to skateboard. you weren’t exactly opposed to the idea per say, but the idea of a sprained, or perhaps a broken bone, wasn’t really something you had on your bucket list this week. but, after witnessing percy on his knees begging you, you agreed solely out of pity for his dignity. 

this chain of events leads you to now, walking over to meet percy at the local skatepark. as you enter through the chain-link fence gates, you hear a rather familiar voice shout your name. you turn and see percy getting up from the concrete bench he was lounging on. you wave as he jogs over to you, “hey babe,” he pulls you into a tight hug, “i missed you.” 

pulling away, you look up at him, “you saw me yesterday?” 

he grins, “and? i could never not miss you.”

you feign a look of disgust, “gag me with a spoon. you’re so cheesy.”  

percy chuckles as he grabs your hand, leading you to the bench he was just sitting at. you notice his signature navy blue backpack, which looked oddly full today, “what’s in here perce?” 

“i was just about to show you,” he unzips the pack and takes out a helmet, along with knee and elbow pads, “safety first, y/n.” 

you eye the equipment for a moment before grabbing them and putting them on. you couldn’t help but feel a little silly with the safety precautions. percy looks at you, and you can tell he’s trying to stifle his laughter, “you look so cute babe!” 

“i feel stupid,” you grumble. 

“hey, any great skater wears a helmet and pads,” he responds in an attempt to reassure you. 

you glance at the other skaters in the park. liar, you think, “those guys aren’t even wearing ‘em. hell, you don’t even wear these.” 

he awkwardly chuckles, “uh anyways…here’s my board,” percy rolls it out from under the bench and picks it up. you’re able to spot various stickers that you’ve bought him.

 first, your boyfriend starts with teaching you the different parts of the skateboard. then, percy finishes his lesson and settles the board on the ground. he demonstrates the basic motions of getting on, pushing the board with your foot, and getting off. once done, percy plants the board on a patch of grass nearby and beckons you closer, “alright, i just want you to get comfortable with getting on and off the board. it won’t move as long as it’s on the grass, so don’t worry about it moving yet.” 

you murmur a quiet okay before raising your feet to get on. placing your dominant foot in front, and your other foot in back, you mimic percy’s earlier position.  

“yeah, that looks great, babe. now make sure your feet are near the bolts. remember the bolts?” you nod, “good, now bend your knees a little, like i did.” 

complying with his instructions, you adjust your stance, “that’s really good y/n. now lets try leaning backwards and forwards, this is how you’re gonna be able to turn and stuff. use your toes and heels for that.” 

“i got it,” you say quickly while doing the motions, “now can we get to the good part?” 

percy raises a brow, “so eager to skate now are we? what happened to ‘no, i’d rather not fall on my ass.’” 

you try to hold in your laughter after hearing percy’s attempt at mimicking your voice, “yeah, yeah whatever. now help me out over here.” 

taking the board, you move it to a less occupied part of the park, hoping to save yourself from any future embarrassment. the task of getting on was easier in your mind. now that you were on solid concrete, the chances of falling were higher. and without the grass as a cushion, the fall would actually hurt. percy notices your apprehension and offers his hands, “hold my hands, it’ll help with balancing.” 

you take him up on his offer, squeezing them tight as you shakily compose yourself on the board. he waits until you’re mostly settled, “i’m gonna walk you around, yeah? practice your steering and just lemme know if you wanna stop.” 

nodding, you feel the wheels begin to roll underneath you. the sudden movement almost makes you topple over, but percy swiftly helps you rebalance. with someone supporting you, it wasn’t half as bad as you had imagined it to be. 

a few minutes pass with percy leading you around the empty corner of the park. soon enough, he comes to a stop, “i think you’re ready for the next step, what do you think?” 

you smile with his approval, “yeah, i think i’ve gotten the gist of it.” 

he lets you step off the board before explaining the next part, “now i want you to put your preferred foot near the front, yeah like that. then put your back leg on the floor, use it to help you move forward and walk. it’s just gonna let you learn and get used to the pushing motions.” 

you raise your brows, “did you seriously go through this entire process when you started skating? it’s so, in depth?” 

“i wish,” he laughs, “my friends who taught me, they were ass at explaining things. so you can only imagine the amount of bruises and scrapes i had.” 

you grimace,  “yikes…thanks for doing this for me then.” 

percy laughs, “of course, anything for you. now hurry up.” 

you flash a smile at him before focusing. you utilize your back foot to push yourself forwards in a walking motion. percy trails closely behind you, waiting in case you need help. it’s a little awkward at first, having to take steps with one foot on the skateboard. 

“y/n, when you’re ready, take a step and then put your back leg onto the board. after, try your best to turn your front foot sideways instead of it facing forwards. don’t forget to bend your knees too,” percy explains, “it sounds like a lot, but you got it babe!” 

you nod with a determined look on your face. with your next step, you lift your back foot up and place it carefully onto the back of the board. then, you rearrange your front foot, facing it sideways like percy directed. you aren’t exactly full on skating yet, as the board is barely rolling anymore, but hey, at least you haven’t fallen on your ass yet. 

“hey! that was super good, a few more times and you’ll be skating in no time,” percy comments. 

you cross your fingers, “yeah, hopefully!”

 after a few more repetitions, you deem yourself ready for the next step, “perce, i think i’m ready. i just need to push off harder, right?” 

he nods, “yeah, go ahead and give it a try.”

taking a deep breath, you push off of the concrete with force. quickly, you plant your leg back onto the board and turn your feet to be parallel to each other. this speed is much faster than you’ve ever gone before, but you instantly come to love it. grinning, you feel the wind blowing past your face and into your hair. you can hear the whoops and yells of percy who’s running after you. now you see why percy loves skateboarding. 

eventually when you begin to lose speed, you plunk your back leg onto the concrete. coming to a full stop, you hop off the board and turn around to see percy proudly grinning at you. you can barely process what just happened before percy runs up to you and wraps his arms around you in a bear-hug. laughing, you pull away to look at him, “holy shit babe! did you see that?” 

with the way he was smiling and laughing with you, it might as well have been percy’s first time skating too, “you were amazing! i’m so proud of you!” 

you go back in once more for a hug. when percy envelops you in his arms, he lifts you off the ground and spins you around. a few seconds pass before he lets you down and you immediately head to the board, “i’m gonna go again.” 

“so now you think skating’s fun,” percy teases.  

you smile and let out an exasperated huff, “shut up, i never said otherwise. i just didn’t wanna fall on my ass.”

he chuckles, “yeah whatever.” 

time passes as you and percy take turns skating around the park. you and percy decide to take a break. sitting on the concrete bench, you turn to look at your boyfriend who passes you his water bottle. you stare intently at him before suddenly clapping your hands together, “percy please teach me how to do some tricks now.” 

percy laughs at your request, “yeah, let’s not get ahead of ourselves now.” 

Percy Jackson x Marine Biologist! Reader pt. 2

warnings; none ! author's notes; this is technically a part 2 so i just named it the same thing ! thank you to the lovely anon that asked me to make this it truly made my day <99 sorry if this lowkey sucks im not too good at build up !

so you were minding your own business

walking to class, blasting music in your headphones because New Rome is LOUD.

so many demigods so little space

suddenly you're knocked over on the ground, your books everywhere. . .

and there's blue mountain dew all over your shirt.

"Oh my gods I'm so sorry ! I wasn't looking where I was going and-"

Percy was frantically trying to explain himself and you were just trying to pick up your books

his skateboard is somewhere flipped over in the grass(sk8r percy has my whole heart !!!)

of course you don't really care about whatever he's saying because you just want to get to class-

he insistantly tries to give you his number so he can at least clean the shirt for you

you, trying to make this boy leave you alone, take the number and tell him to meet you after class

as expected, he does meant you after class !

he brings you to his dorm(it's an absolute mess but he wasn't expecting to have guests so..)

let's say you happened to have a hoodie on you so you throw that on and give him your shirt to wash

while he's scrubbing the life out of it in the sink you guys start talking

once you tell him your major he's ECSTATIC !!

like giggling, kicking his feet kinda happy !

he normally doesn't brag about his godly parentage but oh boy

"Oh your gonna be a marine biologist ? My dad's basically the original marine biologist so like.."

you think it's cute that he's borderline trying to impress you so you guys kept talking even after he cleaned your shirt

days turn to weeks, weeks turn to months and you realize you actually really like percy..

like REALLY. like Percy

and who wouldn't ? his fish like charm is captivating is it not ???

and percy, ever oblivious to his own feeling, didn't even realize he liked you until you took him to the beach for some research one day

you're rambling about whatever animal it is your project is about

and he's staring at you like you put the corals in the sea(couldn't pass up a sea reference i fear)

which you are completely unaware of-

until he starts talking of course

"It's sweet when you talk about stuff like this.. cute even."

You're completely caught off guard because ⁉️

you brush it off as him just being nice

but he insists that he's being genuine, spilling out all his feelings in a kinda dorky way

and of course, you tell him you feel the same way

you both kind of sit in silence, the ocean crashing against the shore

"So.. what now ?"

SUPER BAD ENDING BUT I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE WRITING A KISS SCENE AND THAT'S ALL THAT CAME TO MIND AT THE END OF THIS. . . hope this was as good as the dear that requested it wanted it to be and thank you so much again ! <9

all pjo artists who enjoy Leah's Annabeth and draw her looking like Annabeth, please be aware of @notmyannabeth .

they have been stealing the artwork of Annabeth and whitewashing her. they have even stolen a piece of work, whitewashed her, and said, "Doing my girl justice." That makes it seem like Annabeth being black is a bad thing that has happened to her character, even though it is not.

they claim that "they aren't racist," but the main character they target in changing to "book accurate" is ANNABETH. (they have done it to Thalia too, but Annabeth is the main target of this racist act of art theft)

they have drawn over Annabeth to make her white and book accurate, but let Percy alone when he wasn't drawn book accurate either. They claim to not be racist, but why ONLY her? Why are you changing the only character that is black but not the white one?

here is an example:

why is Annabeth the only one changed and drawn over?

this user has been confronted numerous times but has not changed. they do not understand how their actions are bad, both because of the racism and because of the art theft.

I've seen people defending them saying that "they were just making the character look how they want," but that doesn't make their actions okay. art theft is art theft PERIOD. They have no right to whitewash this character, and it's wrong. so many people have complained about Leah as Annabeth, even though Rick chose HER. She is 11 and yall are fucking treating her as if she's an abomination to Annabeth WHEN ANNABETH IS FICTIONAL.

"Oh oh, but she's my comfort character, and I'm sad she's not book accurate!" Okay? just because she's a comfort character doesn't justify anything that is happening. Get a grip.
