New Percy Jackson Fan Has Ideas

I’ve seen a lot of pj stuff but only recently got into it after pirating all the books.

I did get back into it after watching the new show, but the show is not the only Percy Jackson thing I’ve ever seen, nor am I 12. I was just a tween when the movies came out which made me seriously dislike percy Jackson.

BUT I recently gave it a chance and I really love it! It’s very relatable for a person w/adhd.

This is genuinely the worst insurance I’ve ever had. It covers absolutely NOTHING. Not a single therapist will cover it, I don’t even think therapy exists to vitori. They pretend like they cover it with some meager article about how online telehealth is “important” BUT THEY DONT HAVE ANY TELEHEALTH COVERAGE. I’m at my wit’s end. I have to pay EVERYTHING out of pocket. And the company doesn’t care because that means they don’t have to spend on it. It’s genuinely evil.

What if Percy chose to stay at camp to train, instead of spending the rest of the year at his mom’s? (He wants to prepare/he wants revenge on luke betrayal)

I like to imagine annabeth comes back that summer and is told Percy’s sword training. She goes over there and sees a familiar face… it’s Percy. But something’s different. He looks harder and cold.

He looks just like Luke.

(Okay listen, I love the angst of how things could’ve changed if he was alone at that camp, the only thing to keep him company is his anger and thirst for revenge 😂 I feel like he would’ve been really fucked up because it’s kinda similar to what luke did over the years and annabeth would get so many flashbacks. I need a fanfic like this. Also I made this au before starting sea of monsters)

Also they hinted at this being the outcome if he did stay the full year because he would lose his attachments or something idk so it’s kinda canon compliant?

I know that seems unrealistic, think about it. Annabeth and Percy are seen as impertinent and Athena is embarrassed. Enough to canonically leave them for dead at the arch.

So what if in this version, annabeth prays to her mother after Percy sacrifices himself, and is fighting the chimera- she prays to exchange herself for Percy. To let him and Grover live and be protected- and in exchange something happens to her.

Her mother listens. She lets annabeth live. But at a price. She can never see again, just as Medusa could never look another person in the eyes again.

So in this au, Medusa comes back (since they don’t die forever she’s just an idea) because of athena’s reference when she punished annabeth.

Aka: what if annabeth and medusa live together and teach the other how to live?

Mostly just like the possible angst and hilarity of Annabeth shitting on Medusa cause “my mother would never do something like that” and then here they are. I don’t think medusa would be necessarily pissed, I mean sure, at first, but after she learns what happens to annabeth she takes on a motherly role. Like a “f her, let me protect you” way.

“I plunge to my death” Percy Jackson Au

Ok first, if you somehow came up with this exact thing already, i wouldn’t know, I don’t even follow the Percy Jackson tag yet, but just tell me and I’ll take it down or tag it as an alt universe of your au and credit it, but I have like three other ones I’ll be posting so we’ll see.

- This au is connected to both the tv show and the book because I like what both did in terms of the arch episode.

- This mostly goes how the tv show episode goes, Percy gets poisoned, they get to the top of the arch, he sacrifices himself. But this time, he does pray to his dad as he falls over 100 ft to his death.

- His dad doesn’t answer. He’s the one who somehow last second, controls the water to save himself. He sinks to the bottom of the lake and gets stuck. He feels the poison and his wounds get slightly better.

-In this au, the nereid doesn’t actually help him get out of the water, because in this version it’s inspired by how in the books, when he left the water the wounds came back. If he leaves the lake, he could die.

- So he stays stuck there for almost three days while the nereids bring him seaweed and shit to eat, but eventually he gets sick of it.

- he learns that Poseidon didn’t really want him to leave, at least not yet, mainly because he knew if he left he would continue to be chased by monsters or die in some way and believed a war would come either way. Basically, if the Poseidon that said “heroes always end badly, I regret getting your mom pregnant” actually did something about it

- but of course, he can’t keep Perseus ‘I don’t listen to anybody but myself’ Jackson down in a lake without him going a lil crazy and he breaks the root holding him down and swims to shore, but the poison instantly kicks back in, and gets back in the water

- his father gifts him a hydrai (a large vase/urn basically that carry’s water) that holds basically a portal to the ocean in it. GUYS LISTEN, I HEARD THIS MYTH SOMEWHERE BUT WHEN I TRIED TO FIND THE SOURCE IT DISAPPEARED. I was positive I heard that there was a vase that held the ocean in it somewhere so just take my word 😭

- the mist makes it look like a water bottle with no label 😭💀💀💀

- Percy accepts the gift because he wants to get out of there, but he suddenly does not have a very good idea of the gods or specifically his father. I don’t think the nereid actually told him that his father really did care, at least a little bit, all he saw it as was his dad not thinking he would succeed/ he saw it as Zeus turning Thalia into a tree because he didn’t want to idk disprespect the other gods? Cause it was easier than defending her? That’s how Percy sees it anyways

- Meanwhile, Grover and annabeth are convinced he died. They looked and called for him, but there was no proof of his survival, so instead annabeth took his place in a lot of missions to fulfill the quest cause she’s a girl boss like that.

- I think her main theory of what happened to him is straight up “I saw him fall and didn’t see him land, so maybe he turned into the lake or a tree or something too” 💀😭

- anyways Percy gets chased by another monster but has no more fucks to give. He’s scary. He’s pale, has dark eyes and a taste for vengeance.

- he tries to find annabeth and Grover but they’re pretty ahead of him.

- my main idea is that they meet again in the underworld with hades and they are little wary honestly.

- also omg I didn’t think of this before but what if they thought, hey, he’s in the underworld, guess he did die 💀.

-But anyways what I thought would happen was annabeth and Grover get there first and annabeth has the backpack with the bolt in it. Hades asks if they wanted a trade and that’s why they came. He bluffs and tells them if they give him the bolt and the helmet he’d let go Percy’s mom or “bring back” percy. (Hades knows percy is not dead and is kinda pissed that Percy is constantly on the edge of death but making it because of his dad technically, and he can’t take him to punishment field or whatever he calls it idk)

- I think annabeth chooses percy and is about to give the bag over, but realizes he was tricked and he was never dead. But idk. There are so many diff ways this could go and I’d love to hear how you guys would write it. I’d love some reblog a that add to this idea.

Also I need unhinged percy content
