i personally hate the fact that percy can talk to zebras

THEY ARENT HORSES AND POSEIDON IS THE GOD IF HORSES NOT THE GOD OF EQUINES HE SHOULDNT BE ABLE TO TALK TO ZEBRAS

i lowkey know nothing about Greek mythology though so I could be wrong

i feel like the kane chronicles are the middle child of the rick riordan universe

fireflies ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ

luke castellan x child of hemera!reader backtrack: "fireflies", owl city inspiration: "till the end of the moon", ep 20

“what’s your happiest memory, luke?” you asked curiously.

he looked down at you, a little frown on his handsome face. “my happiest memory?” he repeated, and you nodded. “meeting you,” he said without hesitation, pulling you into his chest.

“flatterer.” your voice came out muffled.

“you love it.”

“yeah,” you admit, cherishing this rare moment of peace and quiet. you and luke had snuck out of the hermes cabin again, escaping into the woods to the wooden bench swing you had installed several months ago. it was located in a small clearing by the lake; you didn’t know if anyone else knew about it, but if anyone did, they hadn’t said anything yet. the stars were out and it was quite chilly, but being pressed up against your boyfriend fixed that problem easily.

“I’m serious, though,” luke said, his voice a low rumble. “and I know I don’t say stuff like this often, but really . . . the moment I saw you, I knew I was done for. you were so bright, so positive . . . the complete opposite of me.”

a light blush on your face, you reached up and pulled luke down so his lips met yours. you felt him smile against you, leaning into the kiss as his arms reached around you to keep you pressed to him. you dragged your hands through his hair, down his shoulders, across his chest. by the time you pulled away for air, both of you were breathing heavily.

luke smirked and brushed some hair out of your eyes. “you were looking for a different answer, weren’t you?” he asked knowingly, referring to your first question.

you smiled a little. “yeah,” you admitted. “I wanna know what your life was like before coming to camp. I mean, I know it was awful” -- luke’s childhood was a bit of a touchy subject that both you and him didn’t often talk about -- “but there had to have been something that was good. something, anything, that made you happy.”

luke hesitated, hands absent-mindedly tracing shapes on your arms. “I guess. . .” he frowned a little, as if the memory was hard to think about. “there was one time thalia, annabeth and I camped out in the woods. we were near a lake, and it was peaceful. the stars were out, we could hear the crickets . . . it was a lot like this, actually.” he gestured to the clearing around you. “a bunch of fireflies came out at night, just buzzing and flying around us, lighting everything up.”

you hummed in acknowledgement. “that sounds beautiful,” you said gently.

he smiled a little, a faraway look in his eyes. “it was,” he said softly. “it was the first time I felt at peace since . . . well. since leaving.” his eyes grew sad, longing for the memory that had been buried so deep inside.

you hugged him comfortingly, laying your head on his shoulder. “I’m sorry I asked,” you said quietly. “I shouldn’t have pried.”

“no, no.” luke turned his head and pressed a kiss on your hair. “I’m happy to share these things with you. it just makes me sad to remember. but at least I have you.”

you could sense he was trying to make you feel better. so you did the natural thing.

children of hemera like you had control of diurnal animals. fireflies were diurnal animals. so you reached out around you, calling to all the fireflies in the area. they appeared, slowly at first, then all at once, thousands of little lights emerging from the dark night and floating around you. luke’s eyes widened as he gasped softly, sitting up straighter and turning his head this way and that, taking in everything around you.

“you have me,” you said softly, pressing a loving kiss to your boyfriend’s lips. “and at least we have the fireflies.”

diary of a leo valdez ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ

leo valdez x female!reader backtrack: "pretty u", seventeen inspiration: my desire to have someone love me like this 🥺

day one: the introduction

today I saw the most perfect girl!

okay, I know I say that every time I see a girl, but I think this time is for real. she’s perfect--beautiful and completely out of my league, like usual. I was just walking around camp when she walked by. it was like the actual grass parted to make way for her. she had a golden aura and flower petals were flying around her, illuminating her beauty. I wanted to ask for her number, but then I remembered that demigods aren’t supposed to have phones.

percy noticed me staring at her, I guess. he said something about me taking my shot, that she was single and I might as well try. I don’t know if he was joking or not, but I haven’t stopped thinking about her since I saw her this afternoon. at dinner my fork missed my mouth because I was watching her laugh with her friends. I was sitting on the other side of the pavilion, but I still heard her laugh. it was like twinkling bells.

I asked percy for her name: [name]. the word sounds like magic on my tongue. I’ve gotta talk to her soon. maybe she can drop something and I’ll pick it up for her and she’ll fall in love with me. maybe she’ll trip and I’ll dramatically catch her before she falls. I’ll say something nice--maybe “hey angel, did it hurt when you fell from heaven?”--and we’ll fall in love.

okay, I’m getting ahead of myself. the first step to making [name] love me? I’d have to talk to her first.

day two: the failed meeting

leave it to percy to mess up what could’ve been a fairytale romance.

it was better than I could’ve imagined: we were at the arts and crafts station during afternoon free time. I sat as close to [name] as I could, which wasn’t really close because she was sitting with her friends and siblings. a gust of wind blew by--aeolus must’ve liked me today--and a bunch of feathers that [name]’s group was using blew off the table. I jumped out of my seat to pick up a stray feather that had blown to my side of the table. then I tripped over percy’s outstretched foot right in front of everyone.

he swore it wasn’t on purpose. maybe it really wasn’t--percy’s not that big of a jerk--but I was still mad. that was the perfect opportunity to get [name] to notice me. now it’s gone.

day seven: the beginning of something magical

[name] talked to me today!

she didn’t say much--just “excuse me”, because I was blocking her way to the bathroom. but she looked at me! and she smiled a little when she said it!

percy made fun of me relentlessly after that. apparently I had a “dopey smile” on my face. I didn’t even care that he was laughing at me.

this is a new development. she’s finally noticed me.

day twenty: the realization

I think this is serious.

usually after I see a pretty girl, I think about her for a few hours. maybe even a few days if she’s really hot. but now it’s been almost three weeks since I first saw [name], and I still can’t stop thinking about her. she’s talked to me a couple times now, but she still hasn’t paid much attention to me outside of these two-second conversations. she knows my name now--I made sure to tell her--and I’ve made her laugh a few times though, so that’s progress.

I caught myself tapping out her name in morse code today. I do it a lot now, almost as much as I tinker around with my bolts.

day twenty-five: the first big move

I can’t take it anymore.

she’s always on my mind. I can’t think straight when I’m around her. I get this huge smile on my face whenever I think of her. percy’s stopped teasing me; I think he might actually be kind of concerned.

I wrote her a love letter. cheesy, I know, but I didn’t know what else to do. I was originally planning on just going up to her all confident and smoothly ask her out. but when I opened my mouth to hit her with one of my deadly pickup lines, nothing came out. I got more jumpy than usual, and my chest was all warm and fluttery. I was looking at her--gods, her eyes are so pretty--but then it got really hard to keep looking at her, so I looked away. I was painfully aware of myself tinkering with little bolts. she was looking at me with this little smile on her face, as if waiting for me to say something--I had stopped her to talk to her in the first place--but I couldn’t think of what to say. I said something real smart, like “are you the square root of negative one, because you can’t be real.” she looked at me, kinda confused, and I awkwardly slunk away. I’m used to rejection, but this was so much worse.

then I remembered that we’re demigods. [name] probably hadn’t progressed in school to the point where she learned about radicals.

so now here I am with this stupid love letter. I included a little apology for the confusing pickup line. I don’t know how I’ll give it to her. maybe I actually won’t. yeah, that’s probably for the best. this letter is the most serious, most straightforward I’ve been in the last millennia. even though I’m sure by now that she’s a literal angel and probably won’t laugh at me, I don’t want to take any chances. I know what I want to say to her, now it’s just a matter of how I’ll tell her.

day twenty-six: the betrayal (and the win)

I don’t know what in hades’s underpants happened. but [name] got ahold of the letter.

it was percy. it had to have been percy. percy was the only one who knew about my crush.

well, okay, maybe not the only one--apparently everyone in camp knew, even though I hid it really well-- but he’s the only one who’s ever talked to me about it. it had to have been him, there’s no other option.

I’ll have to get him back. but that’ll wait. because [name]--drumroll, please!

she stopped me before breakfast today and asked to talk somewhere in private. I said I’d follow her to the bottom of tartarus. she laughed and led me to the pegasi stables--kind of an odd place, but definitely private.

she was holding the letter in her hands. she said she was really flattered, that my gesture was “really sweet” and nobody had ever done something like this for her. most importantly, she said she liked me too.

now, even though I can be pretty good at talking to girls, I actually don’t have much experience in a relationship--shocking, I know. I’ve had a lot of potential girlfriends before, but nothing’s ever been this serious or gotten this far.

in that moment, I said what might have been the smartest or the dumbest thing in my life: “so are we official now, or do you want me to yell it out to the whole camp?”

she laughed. and next thing I knew, her lips were on my cheek. she pulled away--my face felt hot, and I took a few seconds to make sure I wasn’t actually on fire--and grinned at me. her face was pink too, and she didn’t have makeup on, but she was just about the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen.

“you’re a dork, leo,” she said. “but you don’t have to tell everyone. I’m pretty sure they already know anyway.”

no idea how that could’ve happened. but it seems like I owe percy jackson a thank you now.

love languages ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ

pjo boys x reader (percy jackson, jason grace, leo valdez, frank zhang, luke castellan, nico di angelo, will solace, ethan nakamura) backtrack: "hype boy", newjeans inspiration: I love thinking about love languages (little disclaimer that these are all obviously just my opinion)

percy jackson

giving: acts of service

how many times has this guy risked his life to save the world? percy jackson is a true hero, always putting himself in harm’s way to protect those around him, such as when he chose the prophecy to protect nico. he always takes risks to protect his loved ones, and he constantly puts others’ needs above his own.

receiving: quality time

I guess I based this off of percy spending a bunch of time with rachel before last olympian. but demigods are in constant danger, and percy would cherish every moment he spends with his partner because, unfortunately, you never know when it could be the last. I also thought about acts of service, since he was really grateful when annabeth and grover wanted to go with him on that quest in lightning thief.

jason grace

giving: acts of service

jason’s a giver. he literally joined the fifth cohort to bring back their glory. he sacrificed himself for piper (rest in peace jason, you deserved better) and his whole life has been about serving camp jupiter and later, camp half-blood too.

receiving: physical touch

this might be kind of controversial. I just think jason’s been in such a strict, intense environment since he was a toddler that he’s definitely touch-starved. he probably melts at any physical contact with his partner. I also thought about words of affirmation because he’s always been held to such high expectations, he’d really need someone just telling him they love him.

leo valdez

giving: gift giving

lowkey I put gift giving because too many people were getting acts of service. but genuinely I think leo would love making little trinkets and machines and giving them to his partner. he’s not great at being vulnerable with words or touch, so he shows his love through little actions. similarly, acts of service is also definitely a love language of his; think of everything he did to help calypso after all, even though I hate that ship.

receiving: words of affirmation

this is probably the one I’m most certain about. let’s be honest, leo’s been through so much shit, he’s been called so much shit, that he just needs someone to appreciate and love him and tell him that. plus, he’s so used to rejection that one “I love you” will send him into a spiral for days on end.

frank zhang

giving: physical touch

not entirely sure about this one, I need to reread heroes of olympus. but I bet frank would give the best hugs. you’d feel so safe and warm wrapped up in frank’s arms, and I feel like he’d be the most likely to be physically affectionate with others out of pretty much all the riordanverse characters.

receiving: words of affirmation

the second one I’m most certain about. frank is quite sensitive and definitely needs praise. not needs as in he’s an attention seeker, but needs as in he blushes bright red and smiles super wide when someone praises him. it just makes him feel so warm and fuzzy inside.

luke castellan

giving: acts of service

luke is like the embodiment of the statement “a hero would sacrifice you for the world, but a villain would sacrifice the world for you”. he did everything that he did in order to build a better world; I genuinely believe he thought what he was doing was right for the greater good. and he brought back the titan lord and fought a war for a cause he believed in--what lengths would he go to to protect his partner?

receiving: words of affirmation

luke’s never received any sort of praise or recognition; it’s part of why he resented the gods so much in the first place. if he could have someone with him just to pick him up when he’s down, to encourage him and shower him with praise and love, he’d be so happy. although I like to think he’s a touch-starved baby who’s really clingy with his partner too.

nico di angelo

giving: quality time

nico’s not a talker, he’d much rather listen or sit in silence with his partner. spending a lot of time with his partner would let nico feel closer to them. there’s a special sort of connection and understanding that comes from shared experiences. acts of service was also another contender. nico would do everything for those he loves. take bianca, for example, and how hard nico tried to bring her back in battle of the labyrinth.

receiving: physical touch

another touch-starved one. he was taken out of time for seventy years, came back and lost his sister in like five days, went through two wars, had to deal with coming to terms with his sexuality; the poor guy has been through tartarus and back (literally). poor nico. someone give him a hug. I also thought about words of affirmation, since nico constantly struggles with being isolated and would probably really benefit from some reassurance and support.

will solace

giving: acts of service

I mean, he’s literally a healer. he does everything for others. enough said, really. he puts others’ wellbeing first, and in the process sometimes overlooks himself and his own needs. which leads to. . .

receiving: acts of service

will is so used to people taking care of him that he never asks for help when he needs it. the little things, like helping him out when he’s tired, is the way to his heart. no one’s ever really looked out for him since he arrived at camp half-blood, and he had to take over the apollo cabin when he was barely a teenager. it’d be nice for him to have someone take care of him for a change.

ethan nakamura

giving: acts of service

I don’t know why so many characters have acts of service as a giving love language. maybe it’s because they’re heroes and fight and do stuff for their respective causes, so naturally they give off a giving or take-action vibe? but anyway, ethan fought and gave his life in order to gain his mother--and himself, honestly--more recognition. he takes action for those he cares about and always wants to defend his beliefs and help his friends, even though his ways may be a little questionable.

receiving: words of affirmation

really similar to luke. ethan’s always been undervalued and overlooked. he just needs validation and support. encouragement and praise would help him finally feel acknowledged, accepted, and valued.

I wanted to post this on valentine's day but I got too excited

Apollo: Will you go on this wonderful, life risking, extremely threatening quest with me?

Percy, taking in a sharp breath between his teeth half-heartedly: Oof, sorry dude, but my mom said no.

GUYS. GUYS.

Okay, I'm starting to write this RIGHT NOW but I want it to be longer so depending on how long/if I really need sleep it will be out soon!!

---------

Nico hated the way his heart dropped at the small envelope. One piece of paper and years of ignoring and repressing his feelings were gone. Everything came back. A flood of anger and heartbreak at the ‘save the date card’ that was sent to all of Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase's close friends and family. 

When he had first seen the envelope he was excited. Chiron had handed it to him at breakfast that morning, when he always passed out mail to campers. His heart skipped a beat when he read the return address, it was from Percy. And then he opened it. 

It was like he was fourteen again, heading into battle for the boy he loved, only to be disappointed. Maybe he should have expected this, of course he never had a chance with him. 

With nothing else to hold onto, he sunk into the shadows.

nico is heartbroken when percy tells him that he and annabeth are getting married. he won’t come out of his room in hades’ palace. seeing how heartbroken his son is, hades offers a solution. so nico knowing how horrible what he is about to do is but finding himself doing it anyway brings some drinks to percy’s apartment to share in celebration of his marriage.

percy wakes up in the underworld and while he is still groggy, nico pours pomegranate wine into his mouth.

he is now trapped in the underworld as persephone was.

Peter Parker 🤝 Percy Jackson

in canon, apollo invented the honey, he gay meme. not only is this one of the most meta things across the entire franchise, the way he phrases it makes it sound like in the pjo verse, the meme actually went viral. apollo is canonically a fucking memelord and i could not be happier

everybody out here either a. getting hyped for wottg, b. tearing the three chapters we have to shreds, or c. chanting the names of characters they want to appear (mostly alabaster). i don't feel it's right to build up or tear down a book when we only have a small snippet of it, but i can name my major hope for wottg: i want a percabeth fight.

it doesn't have to be super big, it doesn't have to last all that long, and it doesn't have to be over something significant. i just want them to argue. i want them to disagree on something. i want them to be snappy. i want them to raise their voices at each other, if only a little bit. i want to see percy's inner thoughts before, during, and after. i want them to be petty afterwards.

again, i don't care if it's just something as simple as bickering. i just want it to happen. percabeth may be a near-perfect relationship, but nothing is truly flawless. humans are complicated, relationships are complicated, and i feel like it'd make the two that much more human to see that reflected in the book.

No a dwts percabeth au isn't an option anymore. Its a fuckin NEED

i miss you, I'm sorry

part 1/? | 350 words | rated G

He loves her.

That’s the first thing Percy thinks about when he opens his eyes, adjusting to the bright beam of light coming from outside. He wishes he could say he slept.

I was re-reading the books (pjo,hoo) and the one parallel that I haven't been able to shake off is when during tlo, after rachel kisses Percy she tells him go be a hero for her and what not. And then in hoh when they're in tartarus annabeth tells Percy not to be a hero and wake her up.

Idk if this was intentional or not, but this just clearly shows why Percy and annabeth work. All Percy wanted was to not be the hero, to be normal. And even when he thought Rachel was giving him some semblance of normality during that part of his life, its Annabeth who's always known. She knew what he needed, what words he wanted to be told.

Ok gays I feel like writing send me some prompts for percabeth if u want!!

sally jackson cg moodboard 🐟🫐🪼

percy jackson is by FAR my favorite book (series), and i love the new show! sally is my dream caregiver, so i decided to honor her with a moodboard

WHY IS THIS SO ACCURATE

and he would feel so guilty for any law he breaks when on quests and fighting monsters

Jupiter is the god of law and order so Jason knows every law in the United States without like, learning them. He just knows

Percabeth is THAT ship. I'm sorry to all the ships in the world, ik you did your best but you cannot defeat her. She gives me drama, comedy, angst, fluff, she is the only one who cares for me because she's the only one that knows what I want and what I need without having to ask me. She always delivers. She always slays.

Also, “What is Love?” is definitely in the Percabeth Playlist, I don't make the rules.

Not me singing “My name is Alexander Hamilton” everytime they showed Lin Manuel Miranda during the episode, I have issues.

Also Levitating 🔛🔝 GET OVER IT.
