Ω PJO DEMIGOD HEADCANONS: 🦉 ATHENA: Goddess of Wisdom & Reason, of Strategy & Warfare, Crafts & Arts 🧠

author's note: I had a sudden idea about writing some headcanons Camp Halfblood demigods being claimed and what it's like for each respective god and cabin, followed by a small blurb afterwards. Thank you for reading and please like and reblog! The order is not in order of the cabin numbers. [PJO DEMIGOD HEADCANONS MASTERLIST]

When you get claimed, it's after a moment of brilliance. You could be giving someone an insightful observation, successfully mediating two opposing forces, creating your own invention, or when you successfully performed a maneuver. You’ve shown your intellect and Athena claims you at that moment. 

The Athena cabin cheers for you and welcomes you in. 

You look in awe at the architectural structure of your cabin. You can tell the foundation and the base of the cabin was structured like the rest of the other cabins, but over the years, it was elevated. 

You’re shown where you’ll be sleeping but as you set up, you immediately clock in how everything is placed. All the bunks are pushed to the side, row by row and then there are desks lining along the same way with dual tables, and there are the rows of books and a workshop further in the back. You see inventions being made, architectural models, and more. 

Among the children of Athena, you slowly figure out which intellectual you lean more towards: Educated (developing theories and plans), Productive (philosophy, literary criticism, sociology, law, medicine, etc), or an Artistic (literature, music, painting, sculpture, etc). Whichever you are or of those you find yourself in, you’re in good company. 

If you want to bounce off ideas of someone, there’s no shortage of siblings to have a sound board of. 

Whatever craft you find yourself in, you’re immediately put into consultation and you find yourself either being asked to get an input on or seeking input from others. 

Fortunately and unfortunately, since demigods aren’t allowed to use the internet, your cabin is the next best option for Google. 

Spider repellents everywhere. There’s not a single dust bunny in sight, not even in the corners or behind the unseen books. Aside from the piling books, scrolls, and tools (and the few coffee cups), the Athena cabin is the cleanest cabin after the Apollo cabin. 

When there was a spider somehow, you witness everyone scream and grab several torches before incinerating the arachnid into nothingness. 

That or an overly complicated set up of a machine to destroy that one spider. Then you find out that there’s a lot of contraptions that they’ve built for one, very specific, function.

You just had pulled off an emergency strategy maneuver during the Capture the Flag. It was a close call with the new camper but you couldn’t mistake them for not being a child of Ares. They were a monster on the field and you had to make sure at least get some upper hand. 

You managed to take out half of the other team’s numbers, using the layout of the forest and its terrain to your advantage, and your eyes noticing the body language of your opponent. 

You still lost because the new camper, who has the undeniable glow of Ares on them, demolished through your forces, but it wasn’t half-bad since the casualty was the same on both sides. 

“You’re fast on your feet. A bit foolish, but it was a nice maneuver.”

You jumped at the voice and turned to it, seeing a blonde girl with gray eyes. You knew her, Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena. 

“Oh, uh, yeah” you said lamely, dusting yourself off as an attempt to keep your hands from shaking. “I figured at that point, we could at least make it fair or we just lose really badly.” 

Annabeth nodded, as she smiled. “I guess, there’s plenty of time to hone your intelligence with us.”

“Wait what?”

Annabeth gestured up your head and you looked to see the glowing image of an owl over your head. You made a “oh” and looked owl-eyed at your new sister as she held out her hand. 

“Welcome to the Athena cabin, I’m Annabeth Chase. Cabin Leader and your new half-sibling.”

More pjo/hoo headcanons

Apollo kids exclusively work out with musics as a cabin, but they always argue about the playlist that should be chosen. Will uses councillor privilege to force them to pick country.

The Athena cabin has a projector for sure

Also, they have youtube premium because of lofi music

Apollo kids have been banned from using guns in training with others (they recreated the ten duel commandments from Hamilton and actually ended up shooting without missing the target. Now, they can only shoot on regular targets, not living ones)

Hephaestus and Athena kids are a living proof of the "an architect's dream is an engineer's nightmare" thing

There is definitely an Athena kid out there that hates math with a burning passion. Their mom isn't very happy about that.

Despite their rivalry, many Apollo kids have Ares cabin bffs - after all, they spend lots of time in the infirmary

Ares kids usually have a great relationship with their father - he is surprisingly encouraging and supportive

Will can definitely ride a horse and you can't convince me otherwise

Also. His mom has a yellow pickup truck with tons of stickers and a guitar on the backseat

Sally refused to use the subway ever since Percy was born (you know how the underground always smells like monsters and that's why Grover didn't notice the chimera? That was exactly why)

Percy used to cry in the seafood section of stores, especially if it had anything living there

Athena kids can achieve Eminem speed during debate, I will not elaborate any further

Oh also. They're not straight As kids, or at least not all of them, especially the older ones. I mean, the school system vs learning disorders? There's no way they're winning that fight entirely. They probably have the subjects they like and ace, and then the subject that are just there, and since they're not failing, they don't really care (yes this is about me getting a C from physics again, I hate physics)

Annabeth loves the "further is for physical distance, farther for metaphorical and father for emotional" tumblr post

Hera's cabin has a family portrait of the olympians, it's quite a bittersweet sight

Let Demeter kids have a scythe as their weapon of choice pls

Athena kids make so many lame nerd puns. Occasionally, a Hephaestus kid or a secret nerd will laugh.

Athena kids are definitely the type to fight the teacher about their grade. They will gather evidence that their answer is technically correct and either impress or annoy the teacher so much they will actually change their grade

All Athena kids have a resting bitch face (just like Hermes kids have a face that says they're troublemakers)

Hermes kids are naturally skilled at orientation on a map and in terrain

Hephaestus and Hermes cabin have once held a lock-picking competition (based on speed but also the amount of damage caused)

Every single person in the Athena cabin has seen both Dead Poets Society and School of Rock (and loved it)

For an absolutely nonexistent reason I think the Aphrodite cabin has some pro tip for washing blood out of clothes and stuff

Very stereotypical of me but in the Ares cabin, the strongest is the leader and their word is law, if you disagree, you gotta participate in a one on one fight of choice (it doesn't matter that much if you win, at least you still prove your bravery and the courage to stand up for what you believe in). Meanwhile, the Athena cabin votes on everything. And yes, they are proud of it. And yes, they have senate level debates where everyone uses whatever dirt they have on the others to win (because they probably know too much gossip without even really intending to) sometimes. Only sometimes.

Also. They have ostrakism which is basically a thing where you break a pot/vase/something, each person gets a piece and carves on the name of someone who is endangering democracy in their option. The person with the most votes gets chased out I think. Athena kids have changed up that part, they simply ban that person from voting for 6 months.

Athena kids with learning disorders. That's all I want to say.

Mentioning my previous 'Athena cabin has a Pallas cat' headcanon

Also Athena kids are the people who will point out historical stuff behind the names of places or companies (example: my country has a shopping centre called palladium, i instill the lore of the original palladium on anyone unfortunate enough to be there with me)

Apollo kids personalise their instruments - stickers, paint, carved initials, cool straps and other accessories, you name it!

They also have a whole row of those instrument hangers, yk what i mean?

Children of Athena who have never considered themselves to be smart. For whatever reason math and science just doesn’t really click for them, but they can memorize Shakespearean drama and perform the entire thing solo

Children of Athena who have never been told they are very smart but they taught themselves how to knit, crochet and practically every craft you could think of and can do them with their eyes closed

She said I was a gift.

The boy remembers the words, then berates himself for wasting energy on thoughts. He pulls the plastic cover closer around his shoulders as the rain hits the parts of him he couldn't fit underneath the roof overhang. The wind ice had reached his bones a long time ago. It's pitch-black. He's drenched and has been drenched ever since foster family no. 4. You're a gift.

The words come to the kid's mind much faster than to the boy's. As the door swings closed in their face. The second wood hits wood. You are a gift. A gift. They looked the word up once, just to make sure they had the definition right. Then they'd swung the laptop against the dining table. It had scared their stepmom, that's what she'd said. They could have sworn they heard her laugh a little as she sneered 'mental' at them one last time. Their dad looked them square in the eye as he threw a small backpack at their feet. The door slammed.

I'm a gift. Until I'm not. This girl didn't grow up with the lie, she believed it. Her mother acted like she was a gift. Told her she was a gift. Even though her birth mother had left, but that was okay. Her mom was still there, and would never leave. Never. Even when the bills came flooding even more steadily, she wouldn't leave. Even when the electricity flickered. Even when the notice came. Even when they were on the street, one suitcase between them. But then there was a man in the homeless center they stayed at and he had little green pills and white powder and suddenly mommy wanted a different gift. Not this one.

He told her she's a gift. But he's a writer, and he shouldn't have told her about show-don't-tell. Now she had a phrase to describe big house with just the two of them. An office she was never allowed to enter. The galas she attended before she was twelve when he brought out a new bestseller because it looked so good to have a kid with you. A gift. This time, she knew it was a lie before he did. He didn't know her birthday, he patted her on the head on the anniversary of the day she'd been dropped off. He thought she was the reminder of a muse that left so many years ago. A reminder. But she knew that wasn't a gift.

You're a gift, child.

Athena never said to whom, from whom, or with which attachments. What a gift had to act like to be a gift. What it could expect. She never answered if a gift wasn't worthless in itself. After all, a gift is all about its meaning to the receiver. The thought that counts. Her thought. She was clever that way.

Annabeth doesn't remember the sound of a door closing neatly, orderly, rationally, finally, horribly, with a decisively polite click of the stainless steel lock when she falls asleep, hammer clutched in her little hand, praying that the monsters don't find her hideout tonight. She remembers it the second before she opens her eyes in the morning. Before her ears and eyes snatch to attention, making sure she's survived the night before she even takes her first yawn. The second before that, when her vision is still dark and the dream has just slipped away. That's when she remembers the door.

She is seven. She grips the top-heavy hammer.

She was a fucking gift.

"oh, look at this busy mortal with financial problems. i will give him a child to take care of.

I might be insane but my mind is plagued by wild athena kid powers so here we go

ATHENA KID POWERS:

Mind reading??? For some reason. Bc. Yeah, brain stuff.

Growing olive trees and olive trees only

A dash of electrokinesis bc Athena can wield Zeus' lightning (imagine how epic would that make Jason/Thalia and Annabeth as a duo in a fight)

Something with messing with human lifeforms (and human only) bc Athena was the one to breathe life into the first humans methinks

Ability to speak to Athena's sacred animals. Maybe even summon them for help, who knows.

These could be like charmspeak for aphrodite kids where it's rare/not everyone has every one, but I would really love to either make them that op or to give every kid at least one of these. That's all, thanks for dealing with me xd

Why is there literally no fanfiction about children of Athena that AREN'T Annabeth?

Before you all hate me, Annabeth is great. She is awesome and I love her. But Cabin 6 is supposed to be one of the biggest at Camp, and the only other Athena child Rick has mentioned is Malcolm Pace.

Only people who get this will get this, but children of Athena are technically Ravenclaws. So imagine what it would be like to throw a Slytherin child of Athena in their midst.

Still smart, but emotionally so. Cunning, resourceful, an excellent manipulator, body language expert, who gets under people's skin whilst smiling like spun sugar.

(I can't add bullet-points for whatever reason, but here are some absolutely canon facts for you)

Instead of being afraid of spiders, when they try to bite them OC offers them insects to chew on and asks them for tips on weaving and lockpicking because there isn't really that much of a difference, right? And the spiders are so confused but eventually spread the word that this Athena child never hurts them, so OC gets permission to go to Australia during spider season and returns with a spider familiar named Natasha (forget owls, OC has a black widow in their corner) that throws Cabin 6 in chaos.

Instead of praying to their mother for help because they have figured out Athena isn't interested in any other child whose name isn't Annabeth anyway, OC prays to the minor gods and goddesses, because they have done their research and realize just how outnumbered the 12 Olympians against the OVER 100 minor deities are. OC prays to Eros, Eris, Hebe, Eileithyia, Tyche, Nemesis, Iris, the Nereids, Melinoe, Charon, Kairos, Horkus, literally anyone that's ever been ignored in Greek mythology.

And the minor gods are so confused a demigod child of Athena knows their names, let alone prays to them, and they start visiting OC, and eventually get roped in hanging out with them because OC is witty and draws people in because they know appearances matter and makes an actual effort to be likeable.

And so Hebe braids OCs hair and Melinoe takes them out on rock festivals and the Nereids volunteer to clean the beach with them and eventually Eris is won over and makes OC apple pie (DON'T TELL ME THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN, APPLE OF DISCORD ANYBODY??) on their birthday which of course Athena doesn't acknowledge.

And OC gets free pass into the Underworld and when Hades asks them what in his name they are doing there, OC takes out an invitation to Charon's birthday party that Hecate is throwing and shows him the Italian suit they and Eros picked out for Charon.

And OC actually bribes someone (maybe Mr D) to tell them where Auntie M's Garden Emporium is and waltzes in and APOLOGIZES to Medusa because SHE WAS A VICTIM and Athena BLAMED HER. And Medusa is so bewildered by this kid that presents her with Dior sunglasses and a Hermes headscarf (because OC is best friends with Psyche and the Graces and they appreciate the importance of good taste) and their pet spider that's actually a massive fan, but eventually semi-adopts them because OC needs some good role models in their life.

And eventually word reaches the Olympians and everyone is like, "are you sure this kid is Athena's?" because OC fell behind on Ancient Greek to learn hieroglyphics instead (because of course you aren't the only gods around!) and always watches the movie before reading the book.

...... Did I just write a book?

Pjo cabin aesthetics

cabin 3: the cold of water after a first dive, stormy rainy nights, having a good laugh after it’s been a while, hurried handwriting, protectiveness that feels like adrenaline, the sound of harsh wind against your windows, collecting seashells, runner’s high, curly hair, receiving “blue-eyed people” memes, roasting historical events/ people, loyalty that’s like a double-edged sword.

cabin 5: bordeaux red nail polish, anger that you feel through your veins, being your father’s child, crows and ravens, listening to music on full volume, scars on knees that refuse to fade, skeleton leaves, reading people’s intentions through their eyes, ambition, the change between seasons, sarcasm, wanting to be loved (you already are), rather die trying than giving up.

cabin 6: (actual) dark academia, your roman empire is the roman empire, knowing random useless facts, math or chemistry smart, trying to befriend jackdaws, mythology, having a favourite pen, piles of books, hedge mazes, the smell of earth after rain, ink stained hands, the moon, empty cups of coffee, old libraries, fighting injustice with justice.

cabin 7: music smart or theatre smart, the sun’s rays forcing your eyes shut, warming somebody else’s hands with your own, writing notes in book margins, gold jewelry, waiting for a friend while they tie their shoelaces, sunset pictures, spring’s scent, comforting a stranger, musea, fantasy books, unfinished art, helping someone because you’d hope someone would’ve done the same for you.

cabin 10: record players, having butterflies in your stomach, blush on your cheeks, womanhood, dried flowers, being book smart, poison rings, listening to conshells, encouraging others, mirrors, jewelry with sentimental value, finding your passion, making eye contact with your friend across the room, a secret garden, comfortable silences, thinking about historical women figures to keep their stories and spirits alive.

cabin 12: the woods, the betrayal of the feeling of euphoria right before a bad trip, psychedelics, being underestimated, red candles, the calm before the storm, concerts, feeling the bass in your heart, empty churches, hyping up strangers, amfitheaters, the haze of alcohol, the smell of dawn, laughing until you can’t breathe, truth or dare, late night projects, graveyards, misty mornings, card games, always lending someone an ear.

I am currently having trouble picking a personality for Malcolm Pace. Like, I have options. Either I want to give him the reserved and quiet type of personality. Or maybe the sarcastic and cynical personality. Sort of like Noah in Total Drama Island. But then again, I also kind of want to give him a personality like my friend who is mean, a little crazy, sarcastic and sort of reckless. But maybe the reckless part doesn't suit Malcolm so scratch that. Anyways, I am having a lot of trouble, pleas
