(kind of a continuation of this post but this is the most notes one of my pjo posts has gotten without garnering some kind of discourse and i dont really wanna touch it but i need to say this)

thinking about annabeth, the toddler daughter of a phd student whose dad already barely has time for her to the point that she is pretty much responsible for herself

annabeth, five years old, watching from the sidelines as her dad married someone she sees as a monster, moving onto things bigger and better than her, replacing her with people and kids who get more attention from him individually than she ever got in their five years alone

annabeth, seven, deciding it's time for her to move on because she's not getting any more love out of that relationship than she's already squeezed out

annabeth sometime around here learning that it's not that her mother doesn't care about her, she just has more important things to do

annabeth, barely any older, contending with thalia's death, a girl who was both a friend and a caretaker for a brief but incredibly formative time

annabeth, again, barely older, watching luke get a quest and leave her behind, hoping and praying he makes it back home to her, and then when he does, realizing he didn't come back quite right and that now even he's moving on from her, once again leaving her for bigger and better things that he keeps saying she's too young to undestand

annabeth, ten, learning about the prophecy and being told she's gonna be a part of it and starting to form an idea of how one day she's gonna find her More Important Thing if she just works hard enough, because isn't that what happens to everyone?

annabeth, 12, meeting percy and actually demanding to be a part of his quest because even though he'll probably be dead by 16, she'll be damned if she lets her chance at the More Important Thing slip away and be left behind again, so she fights like hell for her dreams and her place in the world

12, and knowing she wasn't enough to keep luke from leaving

annabeth, 13, and having to rescue grover from his More Important Thing and then watching him continue on his More Important Thing

13 still and being tempted by the hunters because if it hasn't happened, maybe the mortal world won't give her her More Important Thing

(then getting kidnapped and forced to hold the sky, no idea if anyone is coming for her, scared that everyone is too busy with their More Important Things, and finding out percy never once thought of not going after her, and beginning to realize he doesn't have his More Important Thing yet either)

14, still raw from thalia joining the hunters, and watching percy with rachel, seeing him blast himself to ogygia, and being terrified he's going to realize his More Important Thing is another girl or saving the world or something equally as more important than annabeth

15, and still scared, except now his birthday is coming up, and he might just die before she can ever get her feelings out, and then why bother?

16 and watching him reject immortality for her to help the demigods, and knowing deep in her bones that there is no More Important Thing because that's just not who he is

16, and knowing for the first time in her life that she can trust another person with her heart

16, and being somebody else's More Important Thing, and maybe letting percy be hers too

that is all

Okay I'm finally sitting down to properly watch the PJO series so here's an episode-by-episode live blog I guess. (Fair warning, I haven't read the books since I was a teenager, I am a smidge of an apologist for the films, and my favorite adaptation so far has been the musical.)

Episode One:

All of the actors are doing a really good job, I especially like Sally.

The costume design for both the monsters and the humans is pretty killer. I want Percy's sweater.

I also love the little seaside cabin and want to live there!!!

This is such a mild gripe BUT as someone with dyslexia I wish there was a better way to visually depict it without like, doing the swapping letters thing cuz that's just not what it's actually like at all.

Gabe maybe feels a little too funny. Like I'm supposed to hate him and think it's justified that he deserves to be turned into stone at the end, this version of him is really.....toned down, and his banter with Percy and Sally was fun to watch. I should hate him, but really he just came across as unpleasant. Less abusive asshole and more "old married couple who share interests but can't communicate without shouting" you know?

Loved Grover's little "I'm 24 actually" lmao that was great.

Not a fan of Percy immediately recognizing the Minotaur within a millisecond of it appearing before the audience even got a good look at it. Like, I just sat there thinking "how can he even see it?" rather than feeling scared of a big monster barreling at them.

The action is uh....fine? Feels a little lackluster. Or kinda....divorced from the rest of the show weirdly?? Idk it makes me feel like I'm watching a movie of a movie if that makes sense?? But we'll see where they go with it. (I know banter during a fight isn't realistic and people make fun of Marvel for it, but like...it helps to have at least a little talking. We don't wanna be Man of Steel.)

I feel like there's been a few "slightly out of sync ADR" moments but they weren't too distracting.

Pacing into Sally saying goodbye felt a little long, kinda took the shock of her dying out of the scene, but the actress REALLY sold all the emotional beats so I'll forgive it.

I LOVE the credits sequence!!! Reminds me of the designs on that one box set of the books in a really cool way.

Episode Two:

Oh yes the ugly ass neon orange shirts are here bless!

FUCK YES THAT'S DIONYSUS BAYBEEE!! My ONLY note is that he def could have turned up the energy a little, but that's probably just bcs I love how loud and unpleasant he is in the musical and I also know how unhinged this actor can be.

Chiron is such a delight <3

I like the cabins too, way better than how I imagined them as a kid reading the books lol

Oh, I can see why the new fans fell for Luke so hard.

Grover assuming a human being squished would be like an old banana is very funny. Felt very book-humor in a good way.

Clarisse!!

Oh damn actual disabled half-bloods, very cool!

Minor but I can't actually tell what Percy did wrong with the bow? Weird editing I guess.

Aside from that I actually love a good "fuck up" montage, I honestly wish it were a little longer.

Probably doesn't matter but I don't get having them burn the food after they've started eating? I thought that was a before you sit down type thing.

Percy burning the blue candy to try to talk to his mom was sweet tho T_T

"real friends" hahahaha.....yeah.......about Luke.......

yay! hazing!

Oh I love Annabeth already >:D

Thalia.....is pronounced differently than I thought....?

(I'm sorry I'm too much of a fan of 'Tree on the Hill' for this exposition dump. That shit hits harder when coming from Grover.)

Percy giving Annabeth the "actually I suck and my self esteem is riding on this so like pls don't ask me to do anything hard T_T" talk is just, so good lmao

ofc he doesn't know what's going on Annabeth you didn't tell him anything

Okay the action is a lot better when it's between the actual characters and doesn't involve a 3D monster, though I still had trouble following all the hits Percy was taking.

Oooh I can see why people did so much art of Percy being claimed that was a good shot.

FUCK YEAH TELL HIM YOU'RE SALLY JACKSON'S SON

(I hope they kept the Oracle in the attic...)

Okay I have to go do some things and then I'll be back for more!

PJO Fantasy High Headcanons pt One

it's not what demigod children our beloved bad kids are, but what specific classes our lovely demigods here are for the fantasy high world

*caveat being that i have very little actual dnd playing experience and don't own every fucking expansion*

Percy Jackson, Storm Sorcerer (one of the half-human, half-immortal races)

One of Poseidon's bigger moniker is 'stormbringer' and while I don't necessarily think Percy is the child of a dnd God, he has storm based abilities from his father's side.

He was definitely raised in the poorer part of Elmville with his mom who most definitely also went to Aguefort, but couldn't go off adventuring when her uncle died and then lost an adventuring party, so she chose to get a real job in Elmville.

Annabeth Chase, Oath of Vengeance Paladin to Galicaea, before switching to Cassandra (Human)

She would've sworn Oath of Vengeance as Thalia would've "died" out on a mission with her adventuring party (featuring Luke), but never returned, causing anger at the monsters (cyclopses) who killed her.

Annabeth herself however, was probably raised Galicaean by her father and step-mother. She would've been a human worshipper of her, instead of elvish, who make up more of Galicaea's members.

But, like Kristen Applebees, she'd find that her original deity and her don't really mesh well, leaving her a Godless Paladin, until discovering Cassandra. And, unlike Kristen, Annabeth is a wonderful converter, giving the Church of Cassandra a very large population in Elmville and the surrounding nations.

Grover Underwood, Circle of Land Druid (Satyr)

Grover is the same in canon as he is in this au, which is nice. He also wishes that his damned party wasn't so either at each other's toes (in the beginning) or lovey-dovey.

Grover is also held back a year to be in Percy and Annabeth's adventuring party, after failing to meet the advancing requirements.

PJO TV SHOW Reaction Episode 4

Alright, time to see how he went from the Arch to the River (As a midwesterner, that always bugged me). As always, at least slight spoilers for potentially future seasons

But first, flashbacks! Baby Percy is scared to swim and that is frankly adorable

This wholesome flashback is now interrupted by a terrifying nightmare

Thalia discussion!!!

Ah Lil Annabeth has a cute sleeping cap

Thalia and Luke! and Little Annabeth! I hope we can see that flashback

Where is grover in their sleeping area?

Ah more Godly Criticism about their shitty ass parenting. And shitty mortal parenting from Frederick and Stepmom

Oh there's Grover. Cute Lil grouchy sleepy Grover

Sorry, these kids are adorable and I am not ready for the horrors they are about to face

Oh sweeties, never try and figure out a prophecy. You'll just get a headache

Centaurs!!! And pollution :( Pan mention!!!

Oh good, Annabeth is speaking truth about the prophecies.

What is up with their cabin?

Oh Annabeth...

Percy, trust me, you don't want to meet the werewolves

Oh! Echidna! So she trashed their room for the bolt? Makes more sense than Zeus sending her to kill Percy and preventing them from getting the bolt tbh

Echidna, you are being very creepy, and cant Grover smell her? Oh but he did figure out the smashed window, good for him

I'm sorry. But cute little Percy is not very intimidating. Don't worry, you'll get there eventually

"This has always been a family story" Yeah i guess that's true. I love this conversation of Monsters and Demigods

Ok nevermind she does want to kill them. Was she sent by Zeus tho?

And Percy got stabbed. That's not good

I love a good ole creepy train scene

Oh, we are making the Arch an Athenian temple? That's pretty cool actually... I think? If we ignore the whole racist/entitled Manifest Destiny aspect of what the arch represents and how it led to the genocide of Native Americans, destruction of nature, and the near eradication of wild buffalo and wolves....

(I just like the idea that monuments are secret temples. I wonder if Hoover Dam is one too. That could actually lead to a whole debate/discussion/headcanons. Is it just Greek? What about the Washington Monument as an Egyptian symbol? What about Leif Erickson in Canada? What about Museums? Is the Statue of Liberty a temple for Libertas?)

Well, at least Annabeth and Grover briefly discussed it the aspect of what it is and the architectural significance vs the historical significance

The poison!

Just uh...casually bath him in the fountain. I don't think the Mist can help much with that

Honestly, if their best plan is to pray to the Gods for help they are kind of fucked and very desperate

Oh wait, they think Athena sent Echidna? Or at least won't help them

Eh, kinda tracks with how horrible the Gods are to Demigods

Ooh, Annabeth vs Chimera? Brave girl but Percy is too loyal for that shit. And Reckless

Go Percy go!

Oh! So the River is just going to grab him. That works. I guess

Honestly if I was the Mississippi River God I would be pretty damn pissed at mortals, that poor river has been through A Lot. I wonder how it worked when the gods came over, was it kinda like when they went to rome and integrated the local gods? Because the Indigenous Tribes already had gods and what not, especially for nature, or is it more like the distinction between Greek/Egyptian/Norse?

Anyways, pretty good episode, the pacing seems a bit weird, but I liked it overall.

Here are some fic ideas that I would write if I had writing talents

PJO Superhero AU-

the gods were instead scientists who did experiments

a lot of them experimented on their own children bc why not

when Percy was experimented on he was so damn powerful he killed like half of them

Camp-Half Blood is still a camp and hidden except it is used to train their super powers

They all go to mortal schools in New York

And they become super heroes and Drew runs their social media account

PJO Royalty/Bridgeton Au-

King Zeus, Queen Hera, Grand Duke Poseidon, Grand Duke Hades, and Grand Duchess Demeter kinda just run things

Duchess Athena, Duke Hermes, Baron Dionysus, Prince/ General Ares, Prince Hephaestus, Viscountess Aphrodite, Sir Apollo (knight), Madam Artemis (dame).

All the main characters are of age to be married off so its ball season

Percy and Annabeth are THE enemies to lovers ship

Prince Jason needs to marry to get the thrown so he marries Lady Piper, one of the many daughters of Viscountess Aphrodite(none of whom have the same father), but he has feelings for Leo Valdez a blacksmith! But it's okay because Piper has had growing feelings for a certain dame named Reyna!

Random idea that needs to be included is Calypso is a queen from a ally kingdom and comes to the wedding and falls in love with Apollo

Lou Ellen Spy Au-

Alabaster and Lou were camper but Alabaster was one of the first people Luke recruited

Chiron suspected Alabaster since he would always sneak out w/Luke, Chris, and Ethan

Lou Ellen was clueless to this and Chiron called her to the Big House shortly after Luke left

she was asked to be a spy for the camp as Alabaster was going to ask Lou to join

cue the next four years of Lou's life from the ages of 10 to 14 sending info on the Titan Army back to camp and the only people who know are Chiron and Mr.D

must include angsty QPR Lou Ellen and Cecil

Godly Parent Swap AU-

This one is way too long to include on this post. To see the entire idea click here. Long story short is Silena, Chris, and Ethan are the children of the big three.

Ships I would include- Charlene, Percabeth, Chrisse, Minor Solangelo but more as the story continues, Tratie

Famous AU-

Percy is a huge pop punk singer and Annabeth is a famous movie star. Against their will they have a fake dating stunt. Staged by their managers Reyna and Katie respectively.

Thalia, Jason, Piper, and Rachel all are nepo babies. Thalia is apart of a band with Nico, Travis, and Clarisse are all in a band together. Jason is a famous fashion model. Rachel is a social media influencer who always posts about her activism. Piper is apart of a TV show starting her family. Her mother and all of her half-siblings are the stars of the show.

Hazel is a famous jewelry designer who works with Piper who is a model

Leo is a Tejano music artist, he's so popular

Cue them hiding from he paparazzi while dealing with their love lives.

Thats it for now! These are just the ideas I wanted to jot down. Feel free to steal any of these ideas from me as I don't write but I would love to see how people would write out these stories.

Can u please write me a PJO x female reader smut thing where the seven (plus Thalia, Reyna and Will) all have oral s-x with r. (Female receiving) and just basically who does what best. (All individually btw) Thanks 😊

okay i have a whole load of requests from this user but they're deactivated- if anyone knows if they have a new account or anything please let me know! i'm gonna try my best to get through their requests bc their prompts are great

to clarify!! all people involved in this imagine are 18+ and hopefully that will be evident

since it's female recieving i'm gonna leave out nico, obviously, but i will include will because i think he's bi

----------------------------------

Percy Was gonna start off with some kind of wet/controlling water pun but I'm not that smart. Anyway, I think this man has speed on his side. He's intense and fast and has all your weaknesses memorised. Gets a huge huge ego boost if he makes you come using only his mouth, not even using his fingers. Makes a game out of how fast he can make you come, and uses his ability to breathe underwater to eat you out in the bath just because he can.

Annabeth Loves to take her time. Not massively into spontaneous sex, but prefers to kind of plan to make you scream in the evening and see you squirm all day. Big on the build-up, won't use her mouth until you're literally begging. Slow and steady and drags it out until you are writhing and screaming. Loves licking her lips afterwards to taste you one last time.

Jason Starts off a little unsure but quickly figures out what you like and what you don't. A fast learner, pays attention and likes you telling him explicitly what to do so he can make you feel as good as possible. Starts thinking about it at some point during the day and can't stop until he comes back to you, picks you up and eats you out like a starved man. Once he gets confident, big on surprising you and has definitely come in his pants while making you come with his mouth.

Piper Looks fucking stunning going down on you, thinks you look fucking stunning when she's going down on you. You know the two short nails with the rest being long nails? Queen of that look, will somehow bring attention to those nails until you look desperate enough for her to lay you flat on the sofa and make you come hard on said fingers and her tongue. Side note, has definitely tried to make you come through charmspeak alone.

Leo His mouth runs at 100 miles an hour so he has a somewhat innate tongue talent. Adores wrapping his hands around your thighs, pinning you to one place and spending any amount of time between your legs. If he's been struggling with an idea or a machine and getting frustrated, will come home and pull you into the bedroom fully intending to have you coming so hard you shake for hours just to focus his attention solely on something else and remind himself that he's damn good at something.

Hazel Patient and soft and careful and always always makes you come at least twice. A quiet determination that is rooted in wanting to listen to your moans for longer because she loves them so much. Likes to sit you down and have a conversation about what you like and what turns you on even if it results in heavy blushing and feeling a little embarrassed. Remembers all the things you like and knows when to put this knowledge to use.

Frank The first time he's so nervous and does a ton of research on incognito mode but gets comfortable surprisingly easy. Suggests eating you out as a way to destress you after a long day. Loves loves loves feeling you struggle a little when he's using his hands to hold down your hips or stomach. Adores the feeling of getting his face soaked and seeing your skin glistening under his administrations.

Thalia Fierce and fast. Nails digging into your skin and throws all her effort into giving you a mind-blowing orgasm. Is careful not to hurt you, but loves eating you out hard and rough. Fucking adores the feeling of your thighs squeezing her head or your hands knitted into her hair. On her knees in front of you is her favourite position- looks submissive but you both know she's in control here.

Reyna Her stress reliever. Passionate and can go for hours, one of her favourite places is in between your legs. Occasionally and consensually will wake you up by eating you out. Prefers to settle her hands on your hips, fingertips pressing into your skin to keep you still and let her make you feel incredible. Loves sitting back on her calves once she's done with you, staring down at your fucked-out expression and wiping at her mouth with a smirk.

Will Teases you until you grab his hair and pulls him to where you want him. Your thighs will be covered in tiny red marks from him dragging his teeth over your skin. Will lock your fingers together and let you squirm as much as you want without letting you get very far. Has the biggest grin on his face when he makes you come, and loves the shaking of your legs especially when he makes you come multiple times.

------------------------------------

i very much hope you enjoyed, thank you for requesting!

A pointless thread in which I rate the PJO books:

10/10: A classic. One of the things I love about these books is Percy’s narration. He’s so endearing and witty and I immediately wanted to root for him. Also, this was a very good introduction to new characters. Even the minor ones feel like real people who you can love and cheer on. The plot is fun and well-paced while being surprisingly heart-warming.

9/10: Tyson appears!! I honestly love the internal conflict in this book. I wrote a whole post about this, but in a nutshell, the main characters (who in YA typically have “forgivable flaws” like being too nice or some bs like that) struggle with real issues like prejudices against another character. These flaws aren’t pretty, and in fact, make Percy and Annabeth kind of unlikeable. But they learn through their time with Tyson that he’s not so different than they are, and they form a love and friendship for one another. This is such an important lesson to be teaching young kids who are entering schools where they’ll be faced with a variety of people and cultures. The plot itself is enjoyable and I love young, awkward Percabeth, although I still prefer TLT.

9/10: First of all, I love that Percy gives no shits about the prophecy or the gods. His best friend is in trouble and gods be damned he’s going to help her. (Budding Percabeth ahhhh). The plot is exciting and I love the introduction of Rachel! One of my favorite characters tbh. This is probably controversial, but I never really got attached to Bianca, so her death wasn’t that sad to me. I was honestly just worried about Nico’s well-being and how it would affect his relationship with Percy. Overall, it’s a solid book, and the character development is *chef’s kiss*. Also, this is literally so minor but Percy and Thalia’s fight where he lifts all the water out of the lake and is about to like,, launch it at her?? That scene ruined me as a kid plss it was so hot

9/10: Alright I know some people don’t like that Rick pit two girls against each other in this book, but I’m gonna be honest, I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. Like,, they’re 14 year olds? I think it’s normal to have petty fights about a boy they like, especially when they’re forced to spend hours of time together on a quest. It’s not like Percy isn’t jealous either—remember how he reacts when he thinks Annabeth’s joining the Hunters or notices that she has a crush on Luke? Also, Annabeth is written as a well-rounded character; I don’t think it’s fair to say it’s sexist to have a scene where she’s jealous of another girl. Jealousy is a normal flaw to have, and people are more than their flaws. If you want to pick out flaws in the Riordanverse books, there are plenty to choose from. This ain’t it💀 Idk maybe I need to reread it, but Percy, Annabeth, and Rachel are some of my favorite characters, and I liked that we got to see them interact with one another. Anyways, I also loved the introduction of Calypso! That whole scene was so soft and honestly heartbreaking. But of course, I have to talk about the Percabeth kiss. What a scene😭 Something I really appreciate about PJO is that the romance is a slow burn. It’s obvious they’re going to get together, but not in the boring way. Their relationship feels natural, well-paced, and so satisfying when they finally act on their feelings for each other. Ugh. I’m so lonely.

10/10: The River Styx scene?? Annabeth’s literally his tether to the real world,, I’m sobbing. Honestly, this whole book is chock full of quality Percabeth moments. There are so many good scenes in TLO tho; I really feel like it was a good conclusion to the series. Beckendorf’s death? Absolutely tragic. Silena’s death? Heartbreaking. Clarisse killing the drakon and dragging its corpse around after? I’m gonna go feral. Percy turning down immortality?? Demanding that the gods take care of their children instead?? This is why he doesn’t suffer from main character syndrome!! We stan!! My standards are unachievably high!!

All in all, PJO is such a good book series. The characters feel real, the conflicts are well-developed, and the payoff is satisfying. It has such a tight plot—there are very few parts that feel pointless or like filler. It has its flaws, but Rick seems genuine about learning and improving his representation and supporting authors who are better qualified to tell their stories. PJO will always be something near and dear to my heart.

Photo Opportunities

Word Count: 2.7k

Pairing(s): Tom Holland x Actress!Reader

Warnings: FLUFF with a slightly (barely) suggestive sentence towards the end

A/n: damn I can't write anything except actress reader? smh but this is for @londonspidey ‘s sit-com Writing challenge (ik I'm early lol) but I was so excited I wrote the whole thing in one go lmao the prompt is bolded!

Calling yourself a fan was an understatement. You were obsessed with anything and everything marvel. And oddly enough, you could after today say you were in the club. It wasn’t a public fact yet, until later that day actually, at the Marvel panel at comic con that you were being announced as the actress for the character, Felica Hardy and no one else knew except for the people who cast you and your best friend who signed an NDA. You were technically still a known actress for your roles on television mainly as Thalia on the PJO Disney + series and a couple of still decently sized films.

You were currently wrapping up signing autographs for fans of yours for today. Your team had planned it out so it wasn’t suspicious that you were at the con with a few of your castmates scattered doing other junkets and press so people wouldn’t guess who they were acting as the cast for new marvel projects.

You had been planning to go meet your best friend, who wasn’t in the industry before getting a text that she bought you both a photo-op with someone and she wouldn’t tell you who. You couldn’t only assume it was a marvel actor that you would indeed, freak out.

Y/b/n: btw I brought you a mask. I get the wig lol.

You: please tell me it doesn’t cover my full face. Also, how are we posing?

Y/b/n: I bought as many photo ops as I could so a lot of different ones, And if I tell you the poses it’ll spoil it.

You: is this with the money I pay you to be my assistant with? Lol fine I’m omw with security

Y/b/n: maybe…

Y/b/n: and they’ll need more backup security for who we’re getting a photo op with than you do for your hellfire.

You roll your eyes before taking your stuff and exiting the booth, before heading out the backways with staff security and your detailed security for the day. You only had security because you wanted to explore the con when you weren’t needed.

Your best friend had also been your assistant for the con weekend, but you didn’t want her to be confined to you the whole three days so when she could, you would let her explore it, at least she could experience it as a fan, right?

When you made it to that part of the building, you wanted to wait in line with her, which your security didn’t agree to so she texted you when there were about five people ahead of her. She was one of the last in line, with you asking her to be kind, so others would get their chance to be first with whomever it was.

When she texted you and your detailed exit, getting a few stares and others taking their phones out to either take photos or tweet, you wave at them before joining your best friend in line.

“Here,” she says before handing you none other than a black cat mask before she puts on a red wig.

You glare at her slightly trying to not make a scene, before putting it on.

“I’m assuming you're Mary Jane?” you laugh figuring out that it had to be someone from Spider-Man.

“How’d you- never mind.” She laughs with you.

She then explains how she’s going to pose for your five photo ops, joking in between how she should “get a raise for this”.

You catch sight of him before sucking in your breath. This was either going to go down amazingly or terribly, there was no in-between with you.

“Excuse Me, are you Y/n Y/l/n?”

You turn around and are met by some fans who were standing in line behind you.

“I am! How’s your con going?” you ask politely to the two of them.

“It's going amazing! We love you as Thalia! Could we maybe get a picture? Only if it’s okay?”

“Of course! Thank you for supporting me!” your best friend grabs their phone to take the photo, before you take off the mask, and stand between the two fans, and your best friend snaps a few photos.

“Thank you so much! And Are you fans of Tom?”

You start slowly walking back to catch up to the line.

“Yeah, I love him as Spiderman, but I also enjoy his other roles. He's very talented, I'd love to work with him one day!”

“Have you seen him in Uncharted? We love Him as Nathan drake!”

“I have, he was amazing per usual! How are you two posing with him?”

They show you their innovative pose. You laugh and tell them it's great before you have to wish them goodbye before heading up for your turn for the photo op.

“How do we want to pose- hang on, I recognize you!”

You freeze slightly before your friend mouths for you to flirt. You look down at the mask in your hand before getting into character and saying “Of course you do Spidey, I'm always causing you trouble.” you put on the mask and wink.

He seems slightly stunned, laughing, feeling like he’s seen you somewhere, not only because he found you extremely gorgeous, while in his peripheral vision he sees his brother/ assistant, Harry waving like a madman on the side.

Your friend directs you both through the poses, first, one both him putting “webs” onto you as she looks over his shoulder, the second one, both of you kissing his cheeks, the third, all jumping in the air in your best superhero poses, the fourth one she gets a photo op alone and the last one she gives to you,

“Seriously, who are you?”

“Your Wildest dreams, baby,” you say, taking off the mask.

Your best friend yells “freestyle” from the sidelines before Tom dips you, gently, with you shocked, holding the mask out with your free arm and the photo captures that moment.

He gently helps you stand back up fully, not before you drop the mask.

“Nice moves Spider-Man.”

“Not so bad yourself, Black Cat.”

You laugh before, taking off with your best friend, well more her dragging you to the printing station leaving the mask behind. Tom picks it up before shoving it in his back pocket to hopefully give back if he could find you.

`You were sitting in the green room, trending on Twitter before you were actually supposed to be trending on Twitter, and god knows where else.

Someone had snuck a video of you and Tom, up till him dipping you, and a video of you interacting with the fans in the line.

Your Y/b/n was currently reading off some tweets out loud

“‘A kind queen we stan.’ I agree, I also agree with ‘Date her if you can't date me tom!!!’.

‘THALIA AND PETER PARKER??? My two fandoms have collided.’ same, same. Oo this one says, ‘if she ain’t playing black cat I will sue marvel.’ I'm dying at the reply ‘She needs to post the photos or I'll sue her!’. This one’s funny, ‘she could squash him like a bug in heels but he liked his queen like that.’.”

She pauses watching you texting.

“Y/n? Y/n?”

“What? Sorry I was only half listening. I was texting my publicist. She said to stay on the DL until tonight.

“Well we should get food, you haven't eaten since this morning.”

“By the way, your show has shot to number one on Disney +. Also, you have like three times the followers you had before, probably cause you're trending on every platform, even Tumblr!”

“Wow you should just become my social media manager now.” you joke trying to ease the joy yet weirded out feeling in your stomach.

“Does that come with a raise? Because after today I've spent way too much of what I'm paid.” she jokes back.

After finishing his photo ops Tom asked Harry who she was and to find out. By the time he finished autographs for the day, Tom and Harry walked to the panel room in the back for announcements, one that included him for the new Avengers movie, while Harry gave him the rundown.

“So she’s an actress, she plays Thalia on Disney plus’ Percy Jackson series, and that's her most known project. The other girl with her is her assistant best friend, and now she's trending everywhere. People dug up some old photos of her being a marvel/Spider-Man fan, so there's that. And she's here at the con for the rest of the weekend. She's doing photo ops tomorrow at one, and yes she's single from what I gather since you were looking at her like this.” he makes a weird face before tom smacks him.

“And plus you have time in your schedule to get a photo op with her, that is if you eat lunch quickly.”

That gave Tom an idea.

“Harry I’m going to need you to book me one, oh and help me find a Spider-Man costume!” He says, before leaving harry to do ‘assistant’ work. entering the green room for the announcements, watching them announce a new movie.

“We are so excited to announce to the Marvel Universe, and spider-verse-” that perked tom’s ears, “-directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, and today we are announcing our amazing Miss Felicia Hardy, please give a warm welcome to the stage, Your Black Cat!”

You suddenly emerged in an aisle way, dressed in all black with a leather jacket, black ankle boots, and of course black sunglasses indoors.

The music is marvel music until it suddenly changes after a recorded laugh from you into “I can’t be tamed by Miley Cyrus”.

You start owning the music while saying hi and touching fans’ hands. You decide to take off your sunglasses and throwing them to a fan, for them to keep, before getting on stage.

“What a Performance from the one the only Y/n Y/l/n!”

You laugh, being met with the loudest applause you had heard all con before being handed a Mic.

“Thank you but I'm a terrible dancer.” You Joke.

Tom was staring at the screen stunned. You had been the black cat all along. You were in the marvel universe and spidey one, so he'd definitely be seeing more of you. The hard part is that you seemed so genuine when you talked, interacted with fans and was no doubt, stunning.

“Better close your mouth or the flies will get in.” Tom turns around to find the voice of none other than his friend slash bully, Sebastian Stan, along with Anthony Mackie.

“Looks like the kid has a crush!” Anthony laughs, pointing to the screen you were on.

“I-I don’t! I don’t even know her!” Tom tries to come to his own defense, hopelessly.

“She’s got you whipped already don’t even deny it.” Harry comes in, joining the teasing of one, Tom Holland.

“Maybe we can invite her out for drinks tonight, then fanboy over here can meet her, and then probably scare her off!” Anthony mentions.

“You haven’t looked on the internet? They’ve already met.” Seb says, before showing Anthony twitter.

Anthony stands there slightly shocked before bursting into laughter.

“Well, she’s damn well a keeper for Tom since she obviously likes him.”

A staff member peaks their head in the green room to tell Tom he’s up next.

“Well, that’s my cue to leave you two!”

On the other hand, you were on an adrenaline high from being on stage, and seeing all the fans. You knew tomorrow was going to be crazy, as you expected people to book your photo op left and right since the announcement.

You had decided to decline an offer from your fellow marvel universe castmates, Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie, which they so graciously told you that whenever you’re free, the offer still stood.

You had gotten to your hotel room seeing your phone blowing up on the social media apps for the second time that day.

You responded to the important stuff, before heading to bed, knowing it was going to be hectic.

You had been right, it was absolutely insane, the number of people who showed up. You had fully booked all your time slots for photo ops. You had seen so many people dressed up in marvel cosplay, ranging from Loki to Ironman, even some people dressed up as your character, which was wildly insane to see.

You had been nearing the end of the line and had enjoyed every moment with the fans, and you couldn’t wait for your autographing session later that day, to truly get a chance to talk to the fans and connect with them and how they felt about you being their beloved Black Cat.

After a few more photos, posing how they wanted, you see a fully dressed, head to toe, mask and all, Spider-Man. You had seen some spider-mans but most took off their masks to snap a picture. The person was the last in line.

“Hey Black Cat.” The southern American accented voice tells you, seeming very familiar.

“Hey, Spider, what poses do you have up your sleeve?” you ask kindly.

“I bought a few, Cat.” they laugh.

“Okay, You can do whatever a spider can right?” you pull out a line out of the comics jokingly.

“I can do flips if that’s what you’re asking.”

“Is that some kind of nerd pick-up line? Because it’s only kind of working.” you laugh.

“I really can, but this is one.”

He gets down on one knee, holding a black cat mask instead of a ring. The photographer captures the shocked expression on your face.

“I- Don’t- What- Spider I-”

“Ow My feelings…” Suddenly their voice changes into a British accent before they pull off the mask to reveal-

“Tom?”

“I guess you don’t have a spidey sense darling?” The photographer captures the moment without warning eating the moment up.

You laugh at that.

“I guess you found out my true identity Spider. And it’s nice to officially meet you, Tom.”

He laughs, just as nervous as you, he notices he has gotten closer to you and a strand of hair loosely is blowing in your face, so naturally, he pushes it behind your ear. Another snap of the camera can be heard.

“NOW KISS!” a voice belonging to your best friend yells from the side, mid-eating a churro.

You both laugh really hard at that.

The both of you calm down, slowly leaning lost in the moment. The camera snaps again. You both look at the photographer weirded out, and they just shrug.

“Wait can you actually do a flip?” you ask, pulling away, not wanting prying eyes aka the photographer, to pry in your business.

“I can, though I’d show you later, maybe in the greenroom?”

“That sounds naughty, but, sure.” you joke around.

He laughs before, you both take off from the area going to grab the photos.

After spending most of the day together when you could, you get Tom’s number, before heading back to your hotel room. He texts you as soon as you get back.

Spider: I had fun today, minus finding our assistants making out.

You: we should ‘snog’ too, it’ll gross them out ;)

You: I had fun too btw. Are you leaving tomorrow?

Spider: lol we should. And yeah an early flight, 6 am to be exact. Hbu?

You: Yeah me too... another day another dollar lol

Spider: ill miss you, Cat.

You: stop talking like we’ll never see each other again lol. As a matter of fact, come to my room, we’re watching a movie!

Spider: alright, I’ll order snacks.

You sigh smiling at your phone. You haven’t felt this giddy in a long time.

Your phone pings with a few Instagram notifications.

Tomholland2013 has started following you.

Tomholland2013 has tagged you in a photo.

You open Instagram to find the photo of him “proposing” to you posted.

“Ow, my leg, my- feelings...Welcome to the Universe, Cat.” the photo is captioned. You decide to post, the photo of him dipping you.

“So what do you say, Spider? Wanna help me pull off the Heist of the Heist of the Century?” you caption it, Before getting comfortable to watch a movie.

What an opportunity ;)

Jason and Juno

I just want to talk about them. I have so many feelings and I can’t find anyone else that cares about them. But, like, why not?

Because Rick ignored Jason in HoO and I still haven’t got my Roman prequels, that’s why.

I freaking love Jason anyway and I always have. And I admit, reading original PJO, I wasn’t the biggest fan of Hera, but we weren’t really supposed to be I don’t think. But Juno? Nah man, Juno is cool.

Everybody seems to write her off because she’s Hera and we all know Hera sucks, and obviously Percy and Annabeth don’t like Hera so makes sense that we kinda subconsciously take their lead. But Juno is cool - and I will absolutely fight that corner forever. It’s like, Ares was kinda a dick in many regards, but Mars was a good dad to Frank, Mars was cool too.

Juno was one of the only gods interested in actively helping demigods, particularly her favoured ones, sure, but she still tried to help. And she obviously cared about them too. Not just Jason, it was very evident she liked Leo a lot too (and I love that too). And we know - at least from ToA - that she had a soft spot for Frank too (and honestly who can blame her).

But yeah, so I actually dig Juno in HoO. She helped out, she was awesome, she was actively nice at least to Jason.

So that’s the first thing to get over. Hate Hera if you want to - but let me convince you that Juno is better. Re-read the books and look for her being nice and cool. Because it’s there.

On top of that though, the relationship between Juno and Jason just makes me so happy and warm. I love it so much, even though I haven’t seen anyone else that seems to care.

Jupiter was at least as much of a dick as Zeus was - that’s something everyone agrees on I think. And I think a lot of us if not everyone can agree that he was a worse dad to Jason than he was to Thalia. And maybe that’s because he washed his hands of responsibility for him after he gifted Jason to Juno. (Dick move btw.) but either way, he basically ignored Jason his entire life and throughout HoO. He was hands down one of the most distant godly parents of the seven and of a lot of main heroes we’ve followed in the series’. So Jason couldn’t really depend on him for help or guidance an awful lot and basically felt like he didn’t have a father. But at least he had Juno.

Juno was a good patron to him. She helped him where she could. She actively and genuinely cared about him. She tried to make herself available for chats when he needed them as much as she could. Gave him presents (his gladius) and praise when he did well, pep talks for what was ahead. As pseudo foster mothers go, she really wasn’t bad. Closest thing Jason had to a parent, and yeah, he could’ve had worse. He did have worse with his alcoholic slightly off the rails actual mother who gave him away, and had worse in a dad who never spoke to him or saw him or lifted a finger to help him until the very last second and who also gave him away. I kinda gotta figure after that kind of treatment from both your actual parents, getting what he got from his patron was probably very appreciated.

And Juno/Hera is the goddess of marriage and family among other things. Throughout the series it’s pretty much her biggest hang up. And obviously she wasn’t always the best mother (poor Hephaestus) to her actual kids, but she kinda held Olympus together. Stopped them all tearing each other apart. Family was important to her and something she valued. Obviously she hated when her husband cheated on her and had someone else’s kids. Honestly? That’s pretty reasonable to be unhappy about. But she watched the rest of her family, literally forever, having kids willy nilly when they wanted to. Obviously Artemis didn’t, but she didn’t want kids and she had the hunters so that’s fine. For someone that loves family so much, it’s very possible she could’ve been a little envious of everyone else having huge families. She still had her Olympian family, but maybe she would’ve liked to have some demigods of her own, if it didn’t involve cheating which she just won’t do. She favoured original Jason and was his patron too, so she was happy enough to adopt them, but it still wasn’t something she did often. So she didn’t get a lot of mortal kids and might’ve felt like she was missing out. But at least she had Jason.

So, being given another little adopted demigod, hell yeah she probably loved mothering him. He was totally her kid. He didn’t have any parent or family to be there for him, she didn’t have any demigod kids of her own and knew she never will. That’s hella cute that they can adopt each other.

Everyone loves found families lately - well this is basically that. Kinda forced at first but doesn’t mean they wouldn’t grow to love each other. They helped each other, could depend on each other. Juno is literally the patron of Rome as well. So even if Jason hadn’t known from the off that he’d been given to Juno, he’d have still had the sense that she had his back along with the rest of Rome, so he might’ve asked for a little help or guidance before HoO, maybe while he was Praetor too. And Juno being New Rome’s patron would’ve probably kept an eye over Camp Jupiter and especially when Jason rose to Praetor she could’ve been paying more attention to him from then. Watched out for him during the Titan War.

I want to know more about them. Especially if Jason was fully aware that she was his patron the whole time before HoO. I want them to have had some sort of relationship. I want them to like each other at least a little. Nico and Hades got closer eventually. Percy and Poseidon (and honestly a bunch of the gods) got on well. Mars adored Frank. Aphrodite seems pretty cuddly with her kids in general. I don’t think it’d be a terrible stretch for Juno and Jason to have each other’s backs.

I want to know if Jason ever made offerings for her along with Jupiter. Burnt food at CHB for her as well as his dad.

I want to know if Juno ever helped him out on earlier quests at all, whether he knew it or not. If she ever gave him and maybe Reyna too, sort of a Praetor deal, counsel.

I want to see Juno fully lean into having Jason as her favourite, as her chosen hero. I want to see her lend some power to him when he needs it. I want to see Jason with the Blessing of Juno. How many demigods would’ve ever gotten that? That’s unheard of. I want it for him. I want to see him marching on Mount Othrys to take down Krios and topple the throne, not with the blessing of Jupiter (although I would also love to see him with that, that would be so cool!) but with the blessing of Juno, patron of Rome. I wanna see him monologuing Krios into intimidation like he did to the giants: I'm the son of Jupiter, I'm a child of Rome, consul to demigods, praetor of the First Legion. I slew the Trojan sea monster, I have the blessing of Juno: Patron of Rome. And she also happens to be my stepmom, dick.

I talked about it in another post before, him getting her blessing. Supposedly with her Roman counterpart she’s supposed to be militaristic, strategic, etc. A blessing from his dad would be like an explosion of power, don’t get me wrong. It’d be like Thor in Infinity War. Magnificent. He could totally burst into the palace and fry Krios and destroy the throne. But I think it’d also be pretty damn awesome if he got zapped with her blessing and became like the ultimate military leader (kind of like Frank with Mars’ blessing I suppose, but more strategic instead of hitting the protein shakes), leading the troops in the invasion and being a total Praetor before he even became Praetor.

Side note: It’s probably not possible but can you imagine if he got blessings from both of them?? I doubt you can have two at a time, but that would be spectacular if he did. Especially from Jupiter and Juno. He would be incredibly powerful, no wonder the Legion made a big deal out of him in the early part of the series. Always was a little disappointed we never got to see cool Roman Jason. I love Jason, I do, but he wasn’t exactly what we heard about in The Lost Hero and Son of Neptune. It never felt like we saw his full potential. So I’m just gonna sit in my corner and dream it up instead lol.

Anyway, this was purely for me because I have a lot of feelings about these two and I couldn’t find anything about them at all or not anything positive. But if anyone else likes them or has ideas or there is stuff you can point me to, please do, I want to get involved in it and find people that are into this so bad!

Old Wounds (Calypso and Annabeth)

Summary:

Calypso invites Annabeth for a meeting at a Café for a talk. She hopes to apologize and possibly gain some dating advice. Annabeth accepted the invite so that she can talk to Calypso and hopefully bury the hatchet.

The following is a non-profit fanbase one-shot. PJO, HoO and ToA are owned by Rick Riordan and Disney Hyperion. Please support the official release.

Annabeth just entered the Café and scanned the room for Calypso. She was skeptical when she got a message from Calypso; considering that at one point, they both were in love with Percy and chose her in the end. However, she figured it's time to mend old wounds. As see looks around, she found Calypso at booth near the windows, looking out in open.

Annabeth walks towards her both and spoke.

"Hey..."

Her voice interrupted Calypso's train of thought and gained her attention.

"Annabeth... I'm glad you came," Calypso said as Annabeth sat down.

The waitress walked toward them and gave the menus to them.

"Would you two like a drink?"

Calypso asked for tea while Annabeth just asked for water. The waitress left with their orders and to get their drinks.

"I'm gonna be honest," Annabeth started. "This invite came by surprise. To be honest, I figured you wanted nothing to do with me. Considering what happened between you and... Percy."

Calypso nodded. "Yeah, I know. That's why I invited you. Percy was one of the reasons."

"One of the reasons?" Annabeth asked.

"You see... Leo told me that Percy told him that his mother would like to invite me for dinner someday. Since I saved her son, she wanted to say thank you."

Annabeth smiled, Sally was always a sweetheart to her and Percy's friends. Calypso is no exception.

"Sally is always like that. You should go anyways, you'll love her."

"Leo agreed too but..."

"But?"

Calypso was quiet for a moment and then took a deep breath.

"I really need to apologize for what I done to you and Percy. I heard from Leo of how you both went to Tartarus and my curse ended up hurting you and-"

"Woah hey! It's okay," Annabeth replied. "Really."

"NO, IT'S NOT!"

Calypso yelled as she stood up and slammed her hands on the table. She accidentally gained the attention of most of the customers in the Café. She sat back down and cleared her throat.

"Sorry... It just... I never meant to curse you. I was just so angry; I mean, I was abandoned again. And once again, it's because of my damn curse."

She sighs.

"I just... I just wanted to experience it."

"Love?"

She nodded.

"I... I just lost it after he left and..."

She sighed.

"I'm really, really, REALLY sorry. I never meant to hurt you or Percy."

Right on time, the waitress brought their drinks to their table. As soon as she left, Annabeth spoke, "Can I tell you something?"

Calypso nodded.

Annabeth took a deep breath and told her story, "I... have issues. Ever since I was little, I always felt left out, forgotten, abandoned. I ran away from home and met Thalia, Grover and Luke. Those two became family to me. Then Thalia died and later, Luke betrayed us."

She sighed.

"Everyone I knew and loved either leaves me or died. Nothing ever last."

"And Percy?" Calypso asked.

"Percy... was the one person that stayed by my side. Sure, there was others that was there; but Percy always had my back. Every quest we been to, every battle we endured; every monster we fought, he always had my back. Even when I was taken and kidnapped, he went on his own to save me. He kept me stand firm no matter what."

"You both been through a lot," Calypso comment.

"Yeah... we have."

"I can see why Percy would want to return."

"What I'm trying to say is, in a way, I kind of understood your pain. You see, around when Percy was in your island, I was lost. I felt like I was missing a part of myself. Then he came back, and I was so happy. But then he talked about you, how you helped him and got him back his feet."

"Annabeth..."

"At that moment, I was scared. I thought I was going to lose him too. Then we just end up arguing more than usual."

Annabeth laughed.

"I think I just made it worse for everyone when I realized my own feelings. I made it worse for Percy, for the camp... and for you."

Annabeth gently grabbed one of Calypso's hand.

"I understand if you still have a grudge against me. Just know that I'm also sorry for hurting you. And I hope we can still be friends after today."

Calypso nodded, then let out a huge sigh.

"How did you do it?"

"What do you mean?" Annabeth replied.

"How did you and Percy managed to stay together after everything you've been through?"

"...I take it this is more than just an apology, isn't it?"

Calypso was silent, but it was enough to answer Annabeth's question.

"He misses you; you know?"

"Leo?"

Annabeth nodded. "A day doesn't go by without him talking about you. And the only time when he's not, he's at his workshop, making unique trinkets and such."

"...I miss him too," Calypso replied. "I miss his laughs, his smile... gods forbid, even his terrible jokes."

Annabeth snickered. "They are terrible jokes."

"But...'

"But?"

Calypso gripped tightly on her drink when she took a sip.

"What if I'm just a mistake? That maybe I'm just a burden for Leo; a promise he has to keep? What if he found someone more compatible than me? What if..."

"Calypso," Annabeth interrupted. "I get it. Believe me, I do."

Calypso stopped talking and apologized for her rambling.

"I'm sorry, it just... I can't lose him. I know I'm being selfish and complicated; but Leo gave me one thing no one else, even Percy, has given me... a future."

"The workshop?"

"Huh?"

"Back at camp. I went to tell Leo that it was lunchtime and found asleep on his desk. On it was a blueprint for a shop; it said-"

"Leo and Calypso's garage: Auto repairs and Mechanical monsters..."

"Yeah."

Calypso eyes started shine with tears she's barely holding back. "He remembers..."

Annabeth drank her cup and asked, "A promise?"

Calypso chuckled, "At first, it was just a joke. Something to make me laugh... and then, before he left my island, he said he can't make our shop without me. And it was at that moment..."

"When the raft arrives, huh?"

She nodded.

"I may be a titan, done terrible things in my past, tried to take loved men away from their loved ones. But Leo..." She sighed softly, "He gave me my freedom and so much more. He may not look the part, but he was a hero. A true hero."

Annabeth can see in her eyes how much she thought of Leo.

How much she truly loves him.

"And you're scared you're going to lose him, huh?"

Her eyes shifted from love to fear. Fear of losing something dear to her.

"Yes, I'm scared. I'm scared to be alone again. I'm scared to be just a disappointment to Leo. I'm scare that...!"

She took another sip at her drink before she could start crying at the words she'll said.

"... that Leo regrets saving me from my island."

Annabeth watches her as she drinks her cup. Calypso may be a titan, but she's not evil. She may have attempted to persuade heroes to leave their destinies, but it was because she was alone. She may have fought with Leo many times after they escaped but...

"It's your first time."

"Huh?" Calypso replied.

"It's the first time you truly felt love."

"But..."

"Hear me out," Annabeth interrupted. "You see, all the other heroes, including Percy, were just there and you healed them because you believe it was right thing to do, right?"

"Well, y-yeah but-"

"But with Leo, it was different. With Leo, you didn't feel any love at first. It was just sheer annoyance and frustration at your own curse. But later on, he grew on you, fixed several of your stuffs and eventually treated you not as his savior or a nuisance. But, as an equal acquaintance; and the reason I know all this, is because it's like I said. Leo never shut's up about you," Annabeth laughed at the memory of Leo rambling about how he met Calypso and how she made him fall for her as time pass by. "So listen to what I have to say. No matter what anyone says, no matter what you think, Leo truly and deeply loves you. He never would've done what he did if he wasn't."

A small tear slipped out of Calypso eyes, but she managed to catch it and try dry out her eyes.

"Thank you, Annabeth. I guess I needed that."

"Calypso, trust me when I say this. There's no such thing as a perfect love. Not even Percy and me. Gods, we've been through so much worse together. The fact that we're both alive is miracle itself. Frank and Hazel are doing okay at New Rome and..."

Annabeth stopped talking before she can mention a fallen friend.

"...and Leo does truly love you. He just has... issues he need dealing with. But..." Annabeth smiled at her. "Just being there for him, helping him cope with his demons. That's the best thing any of us can do for our other half's."

"Okay..." Calypso said, processing her advice and determining herself on patching things up with Leo. "Thank you, Annabeth. I needed this."

"Of course, but hey, if anything else, If he does something stupid and needs to apologize, I can always call Piper and Hazel to 'persuade' him to apologize," Annabeth replied with a smirk with mischievous intent.

Calypso laughed.

The two later on enjoyed their drinks and talked about their activities in camps. Annabeth also talked to Calypso of how there are other mythologies existing such as Egyptian and Norse. Calypso was interested on knowing more of these other myths, since she's been out of touch for 3,000 years. Annabeth recommended her some books and will later lend some of hers for her.

The two were finally getting along, after the many issues they have been through in the past.

"Annabeth," Calypso spoke, "D-does Leo really talk about me?"

"Yeah... he really misses you, Calypso. So, whenever you can, come and visit; Leo would finally get out his workshop and ACTUALLY spend time outside."

The two laughs at the comment. Then, Calypso spoked.

"Okay, I'll come visit. I need to talk to him about 'us'. I... I want to make it work, no matter what. I know I'm not being a good girlfriend, or always argue with him. But I truly love him. I love his smile; his optimism; his determination; and gods, even his terrible jokes."

Annabeth smiled. "They are pretty bad. But I'm sure you two can work it out."

"Yeah, me too."

Author's Note:

I know, I know. Not my best writing. I was never good angsty stuff; always prefer fluffy and romantic stories or Action and adventuristic stories. But anyways, hope you enjoyed it at least. It was pretty short, but I also have announcement to make.

The next story is gonna be a Three-Shot AU story with Caleo as the center-point.

And where is it gonna take place, you ask?

Well, none other than one of my favorite anime.

Dragon Ball Z.

I already have a plot for the Three-shot. It will take place just after the Dragon Ball Super: Broly movie. This will be my first time I ever wrote a DBZ story but not my first action story. I already got the scenes worked out, just need to get my characters worked out and then-

[Ring] [Ring]

Oh, just a sec.

[Answer]

Hello?

...what do you mean there's some complication?... What do you mean we're adding a producer?! I already got the script-... Seriously?! How much?!...oh... I guess, I can work with that. Alright, who do you have in mind?

...No...

...No no no no no... NO!

IS THERE ANYONE ELSE?! ANYONE AT ALL?! What about Rian Johnson, or M. Night Shyamalan?! Heck, I'll take any of the amateurs!

...WHAT DO YOU MEAN THEY ALL BLEW UP! WHO COULD'VE...?

[Sudden realization]

*Deep Breath*

Fine... I'll work with him. Maybe it'll distract me from the hate in the internet. When should I expect him?

...what do you mean he's on his way? You said-

[Door kicked open]

TFS Nappa: I'm BAAAAAAAAACK

Author: GOD DAMN IT NAPPAAAAAAAAAAA!

Dragon Ball Super: A Caleo Three-Shot AU Directed by Saiyan98 Produced by Citizen Nappa (TFS)

But for reals, it is just a normal Dragon Ball story involving Leo and Calypso. I will be working on it this holiday, but I also still have one more one-shot to make. It's a unique one for me.

Basically, it's an Isekai story where the MC was summoned from OUR world into the PJO world. There's more to the story, but for now it's just an Isekai story where the MC meets Calypso and realized where he is. He read the books, so he knows the story. He also still has connection to his world by his phone; thus, ends up with Calypso looking at it ended up finding her... fans.

Also, head of warning. There will be some swearing. I don't know how much is allowed on a teen-rating fanfic, so I'll try to minimize it as much as possible.

okay so since its annabeth's birthday today, i'm gonna make a whole ass essay about her and how perfectly imperfect she is.

okay first off, all characters had great character development. but i think annabeth is the one the fans can relate to the most in terms of this. annabeth went from 'immature 12 year old who judges everyone for everything they do and all she thinks about is winning' to someone who is way more open with her emotions and whom the seven look up to and depend on. this is just like how every one of us grew up to be more open-minded, mature, and empathetic. we all grew up and got to learn more about the world, just like how annabeth got to explore the outside world when percy came to camp and she finally got to go on a quest. (btw! imagine how Annabeth ‘constantly waiting for a quest’ Chase felt when this scrawny kid with zero training and insanely green eyes, who's been there for like, 2 weeks, got a quest so damn fast. no wonder she was kinda rude i mean, annabeth must’ve been like “WHAT DOES HE HAVE THAT I DON’T????” her pride was going crazyyyy)

thinking about it now, we aren't so sure about annabeth's 'legit' personality in pjo, she seemed so scary and unapproachable, but when you look at other books, she actually makes friends pretty fast, and people seem to really like her.

percy once said something along the lines of "we all love annabeth" in botl. when sadie and annabeth met, they became INSTANT BFFS, i remember piper saying she's never had a friend as great as annabeth, frank went to her for help with the chinese handcuffs because he KNOWS she will drop everything to help him, reyna and annabeth would definitely, without a doubt become best friends, i also think reyna had like, a really small crush on annabeth but lets not talk about that now. leo and annabeth are definitely dorky best friends who intimidate everyone with their intelligence, nico literally said "he wanted to hate annabeth, but he just couldn't. she'd gone out of her way to thank him at epirus. she was genuine and sincere. she never overlooked him or avoided him like most people did". jason definitely respects her, it's pretty obvious, and hazel was so relieved to see annabeth safe and alive after she got out of tartarus. grover and thalia love her and are basically her parents in a way, and PERCY, percy is someone who values personality, he obviously wouldn't be as in love with her as he is if she wasn't a good person. and i'm sure there are so much more examples but i'm not gonna put them all here, and plus, i can't remember them all aksjaksj.

it's honestly so disappointing how some in the fandom give annabeth shit for how she acted when she was 12-13 years old because she's matured so much since then. she's much more open-minded and empathetic towards her friends. and anyway, in defense of botl annabeth, you would be irrationally overprotective and jealous too if everyone you thought loved you (luke and her father) ended up leaving you and making you feel unloved and inadequate. annabeth thought that percy was gonna die at 16, she obviously wanted to spend his last days on earth WITH HIM. rachel made annabeth feel the way she did because she thought percy would do what luke did, and leave her for 'something better' and that 'something better' is a world away from the gods, which rachel (who is mortal), could provide him.

i honestly think that the people who don't like annabeth think what they do about her because of fanon. fanon annabeth is so far from canon annabeth. fanon annabeth (in a nutshell) is: 'a bitch' 'scary' 'unapproachable' 'cold-hearted' and so much more things that she simply ISN'T. canon annabeth on the other hand is super sweet, she cares so much about her friends and she would sacrifice herself for their happiness, she cries a lot because she has a lot of emotions (she literally cried when she left cerberus, and hugged a kitten in tartarus), she absolutely adores her boyfriend and thinks very very very highly of him, she is so in love and is not at all 'cold-hearted'.

i have so much more to say, but this is getting too long, i might make a part 2 when i feel like it but who knows? anyway, happy birthday to annabeth chase, the loml.

Why I'm disgusted by the Perry Jhonson movie-

Okay, so we all obviously agree. Without further ado, let's get into this:

Let's start with the characters. Okay, Percy's design . For some reason, the actor looks so... un-Percy! He just doesn't give me the 'Percy' vibe. Next, our girl Annabeth! i was so annoyed with her design. In the books, it's clearly given that Annabeth is BLONDE! Like seriously, come on! And Annabeth was just 'the badass love interest'... We didn't get to know anything about her, like she's afraid of spiders, and that her conflicts with her family, so we didn't have any sympathy for her. And Grover. I went mad on the spot and just didn't want to write this, because it actually broke my heart... Grover is supposed to be the cowardly, thin, and can't really defend himself from school bullies. But as the series goes on, he's a loyal friend, and a caring person..Ooops, I mean Saytr. But in the movies, he's just comical relief, and he's portrayed as a ladies' man. And they made him a butt-kicking badass too. In the books, he's far from that. He hardly ever says something funny { That's normally Percy's job } , And he only likes the hunters cuz they're relater to nature. And as i mentioned before, he's NOT a badass. I think, if given the right person to portray, Grover's actor in the movie would have excelled at Grover's personality. It's just fucking stupid. And Luke, he was a monstrosity. Luke seemed too evil, even at the start, he's supposed to be using trickery. Instead, you can already know just by watching the first bit that he's the villain. In the book, Percy and Annabeth hold hope that Luke is under the influence of Kronos or something. But in the movie, Annabeth and Percy immediately just start attacking Luke. Annabeth always holds out hope that Luke can be reformed, and Percy , he still tried to reform Luke in the sea of monsters { Book } but he gave up in the titan's curse. Annabeth still had hope, cos she still had a soft spot for him.

Anyways, let's get on with the plot.

Okay, first of all, where's Nancy Bobofit? Nancy is a red-head Kleptomaniac girl in the start of the books at Yancy academy. She always annoyed Percy and Grover. And not to mention that Yancy is a boarding school. And i just seemed like they were in a hurry at the start. When Percy's mother died, we didn't feel sorry for him because we didn't see how close they were. That's why the Montauk beach scene was included in the books.

Also, how did Percy defeat Annabeth in Capture the flag, when Annabeth has been training for years and Percy was only there for a day or so?

Next, The war and the promise on the River Styx was not a thing in the movie , so Zeus and the other gods knew from the first. And Ares was a second antagonist in the books, and gave Percy a bag with a indirect link , so The lightning bolt would appear once they got to the underworld, and Luke being on the side of Kronos was revealed later . In the movie, the bolt was concealed in a shield that Luke gave Percy .The plot was just over all basic and boring, and they only included the main things.

And Hades was actually a Villain in this, which was just straight up stupid. Seriously, the first movie didn't even include Kronos. My little sister watched the movies with me, and she didn't read the books, so she didn't understand at all. And Percy only consulted the oracle in the second movie.

And they made the characters 16, so that the prophesy would happen when they were 20. This annoyed me.

And the next thing that I'm going to address is the absolutely ridiculous thing that THE GODS COULD DIRECTLY HELP THEIR CHILDREN! Like come on. I liked that the gods couldn't do that, so we'd get only a vague message from them. It seemed more... Godly?

And The gods look horrible. They don't even look like Our leader described them. Where's Zeus's pinstriped Suit? All of the gods are in armor, and they don't look like themselves at all. Their personalities are different.

Hades: Any hope that it would be a faithful adaptation died when Hades revealed himself. I mean give the god a break. He's been portrayed as demonic and hellish in just about every script put to film. He's actually a caring father { iSh } to Nico when he appeared in the 'blood of olumpus'. And then somehow They switch to Kronos as the villan. It's lazy as hell.

Pesephone... this part of the film is set in the Summer time, this undermines a huge part of Persephone's mythology, which dictates that she stays with her mother in the Spring and Summer; only spending the harsher months with Hades, and she isn't supposed to be so, Yk, Badass. And her having a crush on Grover is just.. Well, stupid.

and CHB IS NOT ON A HILL! It's just fucking stupid .And the sets of the best school ever { Hogwarts is in second place }are horrible, WHERE ARE THE STRAWBERRIES? The setting of CHB is described in the books amazingly, but here, it's just weird. And Thalia's tree was not mentioned.

And a lot of things were not here, but were mentioned in the second movie. And , there are many more reasons the first movie was horrible. But then the director , had the god damn nerve to make a second movie. Rick Riordan has made it clear he is not proud of how the movies turned out, and as such the fandom took his word and through their own experiences of reading the books and watching the movies, they can tell that it was bad. Rick Riordan even offered to write them a new script, but the idiot of a director refused.

The acting was a bit dull, it seemed like they weren't exited. Let's compare this to Harry Potter. The actors had a great time on set, and their acting was amazing.

People have said, 'Wow, the Percy Jackson fandom think they're so superior just because they read the books and they get all angry because the movie isn't EXACTLY IDENTICAL as them' But it's not that. While watching it, I felt disgusted, disgraced, and almost betrayed. It felt like they took my fragile, innocent, childhood and treated it like it was some beat-up barbie doll! It did no justice and everything was just WRONG!

the movies are good, if you haven't read the books. If you have, just avoid the movies. If you haven't read the books and are not planning on reading them, go for it. It's not bad. But note that its nothing like the books. So when PJO fans are talking abt PJO, don't butt in. You know nothing. And they will rip you to shreds like a Kindly One

Thank you .

The Last Olympian Thoughts

So because I have absolutely 0 self-control or restraint when it comes to this series and its characters, and for The Last Olympian in particular, I could not put TLO down. Because of this I figured I couldn’t do the usual photo reaction posts I have been so far, because the spam would just be ridiculous, so I am stealing the idea from @yourstrulytaaay to do a masterpost instead. (Adding a Read More cause this got ridiculously long)

Fun fact, TLO came out right after i finished reading the series for the first time so it's the first PJO book i bought and my only hard cover one for the og series. I checked the year and turns out it was published 2009, which means i was actually 9 when i read the series for the first time. I realize this is not really a fun fact but i thought i was older when I first read the series so it's blowing my mind a little ‘cause now I’m 21 and everything hits different and i still have so much love for this series and the characters Okay onto book thoughts: - i was right that this book is gonna destroy me, the first line alone made me so excited and nostalgic it's ridiculous - I love Rachel and Percy sm tbh. Her being a bit of peace and normalcy in his life without always reminding Percy of who and what he is is so good for him. Just a little escape

- of course by the end of the book that's not the case any more but by the end he's lived his prophecy so he doesn't need it as badly, plus he and Annabeth are solid again - Percy saying Annabeth has been hard to be around lately... Ouch my heart. Luke really is the last thing that keeps them from being together and Percy is so jealous and Annabeth so torn and in pain, i feel so bad for them both

- Beckendorf 🥺🥺 - the telkhine with the Lil Demon lunchbox!! I forgot about him. Percy: 'i left him alive, partly because his lunchbox was cool' is one of my absolute favourite lines tbh - Paul taking Percy crabbing and being imperative in helping Percy kill the giant crab 💖 Paul Blofis is important and deserves the world, okay? - aw Percy, you can't save every demigod bb

- 'i had to fight him eventually. Why not now?... What difference would a week make?' Oh Percy you have no idea - real talk tho, the fact Kronos possessed Luke's body would also mess me tf up. Percy keeps forgetting it's not Luke anymore and yeah, that would be so so hard and confusing af, like what another smart little mind game for Kronos to pull on top of everything else - the fact Percy fights Kronos before getting the Achilles Curse and actually doesn't die within seconds is... Astounding. He kicks him in the chest! And yeah Kronos is weaker and still adjusting to Luke's body, but Percy is having trouble fighting Luke cause they used to be friends - Percy breaks Kronos' time magic!! Like?! Boy is POWERFUL.

- OUCH - honestly Luke, Thalia and Annabeth's family breaking the way it did... Don't talk to me. Poor Annabeth, Luke betrayed them, Thalia joined the Hunters because of Luke's betrayal so she's pretty much AWOL all the time and then Luke dies. Like Rick wtf, my heart can't take it? -Percy and Tyson having each others backs when talking to Poseidon in the underwater palace is the brother-brother relationship we love to see - Percy trying to stick a sand dollar in the vending machines at school 🤦🏻‍♀🤦🏻‍♀ - the whole underwater interaction at Poseidon's palace? Perfection. Awkward family drama and all - Connor falling out of the tree when he sees Percy because he's so excited 😂😂

- 😭💖

- k, ik Clarisse isn't perfect but tbh if i was a child of Ares whose father was disrespected and hated by my fellow campers (ares deserves it but still) and that disrespect trickled down to how the other campers treated ME (which if Percy is reliable here, it obviously does) then i would also be irritated at being used for muscle and nothing else? And just expected to fight with the people who act as if they'd rather not have Ares kids around the rest of the time. Like Clarisse isn't totally wrong - Percy reading the prophecy, seeing he's meant to die and just being like 'i do not see it' and refusing to outright think about it makes me so sad for him - (but it taints every action after and he's super reckless afterwards bc of it- including finally breaking and accepting the Achilles Curse) - (also him taking this as the last straw and finally beginning to show Annabeth how he really feels, cause fuck it, he's dying anyway) - Give me more info about Rachel's backstory and family Rick!! - how did i forget Percy willingly eats chocolates that taste like cardboard because 'i didnt have anything against cardboard' like sir? Ik Silena didn't want them but still? - 'she'd always been cute, but she was starting to be seriously beautiful' STOP, MY HEART CAN'T TAKE IT - Percy staring at Annabeth and forgetting what they're talking about cause hes so distracted 👌🏻

- hmm yeah... For some strange reason.... - i forgot how Percy totally bombs this convo bw them and now want to cry 😭 Annabeth is trying to talk about what's important and Percy, you sweet oblivious man, you're shooting her down without even realizing - love that they're both on the same wavelength tho. Percy two lines before, hmm it's cool to date ppl from other cabins, wonder why im thinking that around Annabeth, my best friend in the world, and then Annabeth a beat later, hmm, let me bring up Silena and Beckendorf and how it's important to be with the people you love when you have the chance, no way Percy will miss this huge hint right? - they're the best - k i honestly forgot Percy full on physically intimidates Leneus like that - luke telling his mom if he ran away the monsters wouldnt get her..i can just imagine luke crying when he says good bye before running away because he thinks it's his fault his mom is like that and he cant take care of and protect her anymore because it's too hard - uh oh now i have angsty pre-lightning thief luke fic inspo... Him, Thalia and Annabeth on the run... The ANGST - Rick holds absolutely nothing back in this book and i am in pain - HESTIA!! 💖💖🥰 - actual loml - i love that Rick titled this book after her and that he wrote such a great series about the importance of family (biological, found or otherwise) and home, and that he said actually Hestia is the most important bc shes the most humble and keeps the peace and knows when to fight and when to yield and you protect what you love, which is your home - i just... Adore Hestia - Grover! Missed you babes - Hades is so so horrible to Nico, always comparing him to Bianca :/ - but i do love Hades, Persephone and Demeter together they make me laugh - oh god the River Styx - Achilles 🥺 - Annabeth being Percy's lifeline is, and continues to be, A Lot™ - 'my name was Percy Jackson. I reached up and took Annabeth's hand.' LOL Why am i crying? - Like the fact there is no Percy without Annabeth, and that remembering her literally reminded him of who he is in his very soul... It's fine im fine - i won't even get into the parallels of her being his lifeline now and then later when Hera takes his memories but leaves the memory of Annabeth for Percy to fight to get back to (anyone who wants to yell about it with me... Feel free to message) - badass Percy is my fav Percy tbh - him defeating Hades?? Like? Hades is arguably the most powerful god, okay - i feel bad for Nico but if i was Percy I'd do the exact same, Nico, sorry man but this is a high stakes time crunch deal and Nico is literally the only hope of persuading Hades and distracted by his own internal stuff - flashbacks to Luke, Thalia and Annabeth hurt, ow - George and Martha are the best - damn i forgot Hermes full on nearly kills Percy here, yikes - Luke stop cockblocking Percabeth challenge

- i love!! Percy's love for New York!! So much!! - Percy leaving to live in New Rome in HoO is a lie and this is all the proof i need for why - the fact the entire last half of the book is the battle and aftermath... Such great buildup and pacing. All the tricks and twists and battles in this War of Manhattan? I would not take out a thing, Rick, you legend - of course then the final battle in hoo with the gods is what? Two pages? Ugh, don’t talk to me about my hatred for BoO and HoO - 'no detours you two' is still the cutest thing!!! - THE HUNTERS!! Thalia i missed you - good job Percy, you finally spent your sand dollar - Minotaur!! - 'dont i get a kiss for luck? Its kind of a tradition right?' Percy finds out he's gonna die and is out of fucks to give and honestly I support him - also Michael just standing beside these two while they're flirting like umm 👀 👀 while a monster army marches towards them, nbd - Annabeth taking Ethan's knife meant for Percy!!! Cause she just knows his weak spot without him even telling her! They literally invented love - Feral Percy is so scary omg, i love how well Rick incorporates the Achilles Curse in this novel, with the whole heightened weaknesses and stuff ans the parallels to Achilles arrogance being what killed him and Percy's loyalty, fierceness and protective instinct being his own heightened weakness - the fact that Percy is the one who inadvertantly kills Michael Yew tho, I'll never recover from that - the fact Hades offers Maria di Angelo a golden palace by the Styx like how Poseidon offers Sally a palace under the sea tho. Let's talk about that parallel - the entire talk with Prometheus is so so good - not me picturing young Luke hiding in the closet to get away from his mom when she has an 'episode' -i love callbacks in stories and all of the callbacks to the rest of the series in this book make me very happy (medusa, minotaur, the underworld, Rainbow!! My baby!!, Daedalus and more) - Percy summoning a wholeass hurricane against Hyperion - the Party Ponies! They're so chaotic, i love it - Dionysus! 😁 I can't help it, i love him - Percy absolutely losing it when he sees Sally and Paul asleep in the car 🥺 - Rachel telling Percy he's not the hero screws with him so much :( poor bb - although i really really love how Rick wrote this, it's so refreshing to not have one chosen one save the world, but a combination of people - the drakon, Silena and Clarisse make me cry - the Patrochilles references, im not okay - Annabeth giving up on Luke after hearing what he did to Silena and Percy telling her that doesn't make him happy 😭 that whole interaction makes my heart ache - Percy giving Hestia Pandora's pithos 🥺 - and Hades, Nico and the others coming for a final attack is so badass, i love it - listen im glad the og trio were the ones to confront Luke on Olympus but the fact Thalia got so close and then pinned by a statue of HERA makes me so sad. Ik her and Luke were finished and she coped by cutting him off completely and giving up all hope but i would pay money to know what they would have said to each other to say goodbye - Ethan 🥺 - Poseidon joining the fight against Typhon is so cool, such a great scene - 'PEANUT BUTTER!' - Annabeth you brilliant badass you - RIP Luke, you werent great but you werent the worst either - the gods just rolling up seconds too late, wondering wtf happened in Olympus and who the dead body is - the chapter where the Olympians meet and give out rewards is one of my absolute favourites (again i am incensed we didn't get anything like this in HoO) - will Percy turning down immortality ever not make me scream in glee? No? Alright then - Annabeth being relieved like Percy was relieved at the end of Titan's Curse tho - oh Hermes :/ - its so hard reading all this and knowing what comes in HoO... Like it's such a cathartic, earned and mostly happy and peaceful ending and then HoO comes along and undermines it all - aww Rick let Paul see Olympus somehow pls, he deserves it, he killed a dracanae - (i would also love to see it) - Percy being more upset Rachel took his pegasus than her going to Camp and possibly dying, lol, priorities dude - i honestly think that Rick had other ideas for the second Great Prophecy and how things would go down in BoO, cause the prophecy like... Barely applies to BoO, Doors of Death are in book four, and explabations of it is all so unclear when Rick is usually pretty good with that stuff - PERCABETH - lol Percy complaining about privacy when he and Annabeth are caught kissing literally in the middle of the very open and public dining pavilion, okay - BEST UNDERWATER KISS OF ALL TIME - that's it and im a glass case of emotion - very happy to say that this series remains my favourite of all time 💖

If anyone ever wants to come gush about anything Riordanverse related feel free, because as you can see I have a lot of thoughts about it all

#lau rereads pjo #the last olympian is my favourite book for a REASON #honestly every line is killer #so much subtext to read into #the dialogue #the relationships are dialed up to 11 #every character is so on point #the battle strategies too? are just so interesting?#I just adore it #Tay don't read any of this yet cause it's all spoilers #alright I'm gonna go write fic to express these feelings now #tlo #the last olympian #pjo #pjato #percy jackson
