#mind you historically it was considered pointless to offer to thanatos

[percabeth4life]

hc: everytime percy almost dies or miraculously recovers right before death or sees the god or survives smth that wouldve killed anyone else, he makes an offering to Thanatos basically going "sorry if i messed up your schedule again, hope you have a great day, am happily awating when you can actually collect me, bye!<3"

Thanatos considers them good friends, says it once in front of Hades, Persephone&Demeter(&through an amazing game of telephone, Poseidon gets told his Son is "making good friends with death" and Poseidon takes that to mean Percy is (1) almost dyinf even ore frequently than usual or (2) they are sarcastic and he is sassing thanatos&he(Than) does nOT appreciate it

Lmao, Poseidon is panicking, Thanatos when rescued in SON is just like "<3 bestie! How nice to see you <3 You doing good? How am I doing? Yeah just trapped here"

Percy does not realize Thanatos considers them good friends and is just confuzzled. He's happy Thanatos seems to think he's chill tho.

#anon asks #life answers #thanatos friendship au #mind you historically it was considered pointless to offer to thanatos #because he is the one God whose favor cannot be won in such a manner #or at all #death (Thanatos) is neutral #he is final and total #you cannot send him elsewhere #but for the purposes of this its basically percy offering offerings for #literally no reason in Thanatos' eyes #like yeah he says thanks but the kid wasn't dying anyways #so it's sweet <3 #what a nice friend of his! #he's kinda cute too-
