PJO Equestrian Au
-Just imagine it
-They all go to a barn called SPQR Equestrian Center or maybe something like Neptune Stables
-Chiron is the head coach
-Silena is the assistant coach who is fresh out of college and always spoils the horses rotten with mints and sugar cubes from her dad's candy shop
-Her boyfriend Charles Beckonford works as a Farrier (makes horse shoe's and puts them on horses' hooves) and swings by the barn a lot, even if he isn't needed
-Then he bought a horse named Festus as an excuse to see Silena more (and because he loves horses)
-His apprentice/assistant Leo, tags along and Beckonford lets him ride his horse
-To be honest Leo rides that horse more often then Beckonford does and gives Festus loads of baby carrots so now he's basically Leo's horse
-Festus is toats in love with Silena too but I mean who isn't?
-Percy has the record for most falls off a horse, but it's not Blackjack's fault, it's because Percy does stupid shit
-"Hey Annabeth! Look! No hands- AHHH!"
-Blackjack will come over to his fallen rider and give his face a big lick and Annabeth will roll her eyes, trying to hide her smile
-Blackjack is also known as donut because once there was a box of shipley's donuts on a tack chest and Blackjack grabbed it and tried to eat the donuts, box and all
-Cue 4 riders simultaneously freaking out and trying to get the box out of Blackjack's mouth because that can't be healthy for a horse's stomach
-Percy is laughing and crying as he throws away the box of crushed and horse slobber coated donuts
-Tyson pats his shoulder, it was probably meant as a comforting gesture but Tyson is so big he nearly makes Percy eat dirt
-Tyson doesn't compete in shows like Percy because he gets way too nervous, but he loves riding his Clydesdale, Rainbow
-Grover is a stable hand and basically the guy you ask if you need help
-Percy wouldn't have survived his first month at the barn without Grover's help because "What the hell is a martingale? Do you think this is too loose? Which way do you wrap polos again?"
-(Percy was to embarrassed to ask Miss Perfect Annabeth for help)
-Annabeth has a horse named Yankee as a play on "Yankee Doodle came to town riding on a pony" (also her Yankees invisibility cap cause I'm so clever)
-Annabeth is the most experienced rider at the barn
-She's been riding since she was 7
-Yankee was an anonymous gift she got on her 12th birthday and Annabeth believes it was from her mother who mysteriously disappeared after she was a year old
-She's never told anyone this belief but her best friend Thalia who's house she practically lives at given her not so good relationship with her stepmother
-People often mistake her for Jason's sister and she loves it telling Thalia she'll trade her half brothers for Jason
-Thalia then hooks her arm around Jason and pinches his cheek saying "I wouldn't trade this guy for the world" and Jason is blushing like Thalia stahp
-Jason is a pretty skilled rider himself, competing in shows and earning ribbons with his horse Tempest who has an awful attitude around everyone, but loves his girlfriend piper who comes to hang out and watch him
-Jason glasses keep falling off when he goes over jumps, so he ends up having to tape them onto his ears
-Piper finds this very amusing
-Piper is at the barn just as much as the others and they forget that she doesn't even go there
-what Piper doesn't say is that she likes being there because it's better than her empty mansion
-Her dad once asked her if she wanted to start horseback riding but Piper has what she calls a cautious perspective of horses and prefers to just go on trail rides
-she steals... I mean "borrows" Tempest
-Hazel is the barn's best barrel racer and she adores her horse Arion who the others swear she trained to be an attack dog or something because if anyone tries to touch him but Hazel he freaks out and starts bucking and kicking and foaming at the mouth
-But then Hazel comes up and suddenly Happy Ears! He'll sweetly nuzzle her pocket, searching for treats and Hazel will hold up a horse cookie saying "give me a kiss first"
-and the others think he's gonna bite her but he just lips at her cheek then she gives him the cookie and a neck rub while he munches on his treat, cooing about what a good boy he is and the others are shook
-Nico comes to the barn to support his sister and absolutely does not look at Percy in those tight riding pants
-then one day a vet trainee comes by because a horse got sick and Nico is down like oh man he's got it bad
-the cute blonde is telling Chiron about the horses boo-boo's and scrunches up his face when he thinks hard about what they should do so Porkpie can get better
-Hazel notices Nico's not so secret crush and asks Will to take a look at her horse and oh by the way this is my brother Nico
-Nico ain't sure whether he wants to hug or strangle Hazel but he feels something because his stomach seems to have gone into his throat and gah!
-Frank is new to the barn and still kinda finding his way around
-He's given the tour by Percy then he sees Hazel riding Arion and looking fan-freaking-tastic
-And Frank is like whO iS thAT
-He has a total crush on her but Hazel is oblivious
-Percy ships it
-Frank has a huge draft horse he calls Gray
-Gray used to be his mom's army calvary horse and Frank got into riding as a way to be closer to his dead mother
-But Frank is terrified of that horse because he's ginormous and is prone to "moods"
-Reyna is the best rider in the barn and she knows it. Her and Scipio are always in perfect sync and look amazing
-Reyna really scored with Scipio because he's a total sweetheart and every one else is in love with him
-He was nicknamed skippy by Jason and it stuck
-No one calls him Scipio
-it's Skippy
-Reyna always shows up to practice early and goes up to the barn every day to check on skippy even if she doesn't have a lesson
-She's freaking dedicated okay
-to be honest the barn is basically the teens second home
A/N: I ride horses so I basically spit up a million head canons Sorry! Feel free to ask me about this au because I've fallen in love with it already. This is au is all that's gonna be on my board for the next month. You have been warned.
