I love the way that Grover wouldn't even have been able to protect Percy the way he did when they met in school if Percy wasn't the kind of person to befriend and look after someone who he thought couldn't do that themselves.
I love that it didn't occur to Grover that Percy was protecting him because it's not humans Grover is scared of. He's bullied but he just brushes it off because he's never had experience with the kind of monsters that humans can become, Percy didn't let it get to that point.
I love the way it didn't occur to Percy that Grover was protecting him because Percy isn't worried about monsters or gods, Grover protected him from that, but Percy knows people. He's lived with Gabe for years, and that's the kind of monster he's had experience with.
A huge reason that Percy has always been so fearless facing the gods, and continued to be able to protect people the way that he always did, is because of his experience with both kinds of monsters.
He doesn't hesitate to fight Ares on the beach because he recognizes that kind of monster. An arrogant and cruel man who preys on anyone who he thinks can't protect themselves. He's fighting Ares, but he sees who he's been fighting his whole life: Gabe.
Percy never had an issue putting the gods in their place because he was never the type of kid to lay down when someone was walking all over him, and never the type to let anyone else do that. The gods acting the way they did closed the gap between the type of monsters he was used to and the type of monster that came with the job description as a demigod. Everything he went through with Gabe gave him the power he needed to start the fight, and the force he gained as a demigod gave him the power he needed to finish it.
He grew up with someone like Gabe, and instead of following in his footsteps, Percy became the exact opposite of him. Not only that, he became the type of person who won't stand for anyone to be treated the way Gabe treated him and Sally.
He's a force to be reckoned with not only because of his abnormally strong powers as a child of the big three but also because of his worldly experience and understanding that hydras, furies, chimeras and minotaurs aren't the only monsters and that any monster can be beaten.

@rimeah an alternate take on your prompt. an emo take. one might say, a paris special take
Prompt: makeover
“And… there!” Marinette proudly flourished her eyeliner pencil, finishing the makeover. “Think it’ll piss your dad off?”
Adrien’s voice was small. “If he even notices me.”
“What?”
Adrien seemed to curl in on himself. “I don’t think he gets me,” he sighed. “He tries, I think, but it’s like he sees right through me. I’m a ghost.”
As much as she wished they’d leave her alone sometimes, Marinette could never imagine thinking that about her parents. She placed her hand on his shoulder, squeezing.
“I see you,” she said sincerely.
His hand covered hers, squeezing back. “Thank you. I know.”
Send me one word, I'll write you 100

Percy Jackson & Poseidon, Sally Jackson/Poseidon
Canon Compliant, Family Feels, Father-Son Relationship
Perseus Jackson is born on August 18th at 2:34 AM, weighing exactly seven pounds and three ounces. His eyes are the watery-blue-gray that so many newborns are born with, not yet settled into their color, and his black hair is just beginning to grow. Poseidon listens to his heartbeat, counts all his fingers and toes, and memorizes the shape his dark lashes make as they fan across his cheeks. Perseus is perfect in a way that only what is yours can be, and it’s been so long since Poseidon has held a child—much less his own child.
Everything aches when he has to leave.

Percy Jackson & Poseidon, Percy Jackson & Sally Jackson
Poseidon is a Good Parent, Sally Jackson is a Good Parent, Hurt/Comfort
He had never known prayer; his mother had never placed any emphasis on religion. Instead, Percy only knew desperation. He bowed his head, and whispered to whoever was listening: “Mama never had any drinks. Gabe did, the bottles were his. I know he pushed her. Please, I know he killed her, but I can’t prove it. And he’s gonna hurt me if I say something. Please. Please, someone help me.”
Or: After Sally dies, Poseidon interferes in Percy's life, defying the Big Three oath, and decides to raise him in Atlantis. Canon divergence.

Percy has a very bad, no good life after his stepfather enters the picture. It goes from bad to worse, and no one is in his corner.
Thing is, he also apparently has a whole other side of his family he didn't know about.
