(I apologize for once again yapping about a fic that hasn't been published)

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

(FaceTiming the gang from Elysium)

Demos: ...yeah, so then Hyacinthus told everybody about the time when - HOLY SHIT PERCY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!

Percy: *walking on the River Lethe like he's Jesus*

Demos: PERSEUS MERCURY ACHILLES JACKSON FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THE GODS THAT HAVE WANTED TO GET YOU IN BED GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM THERE!!!

Percy: *while being pulled back by Daphne and Adonis* There was MORE OF THEM?!

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

Demos: Why the FUCK is there a naked Apollo on my Tumblr dash, it's EIGHT IN THE MORNING! (based on a true story)

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

(watching a video about Hestia with everybody)

Lady in video: Hestia was wanted by both Poseidon and Apollo-

Percy: *sighs* *gets up* *leaves room* *has a mental breakdown* *comes back in* Continue...

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

Demos: *wakes Percy up by standing on his bed in a disco suit while playing Stayin' Alive* (iykyk)

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

Percy: *casually becomes besties with Hyacinthus and Daphne and scares Apollo shitless*

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

Percy: *casually performs SIX with Clytie, Koronis, Hyacinthus, Daphne, and Adonis and once again scares Apollo shitless*

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

(when Nico inevitably got kidnapped by the bitch-ass twin giants)

Percy and Will: *crying together in the Poseidon cabin*

Demos: *outside, screaming at the sky* APOLLO GET YOUR SUNSHINY ASS DOWN HERE YOUR SON-IN-LAW GOT KIDNAPPED AND YOUR CHILD NEEDS COMFORT!

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

(talking about that one time when he and Apollo were trapped together on Delos for 30 years) (y'all will get some of the lore soon)

Demos: I think that's the longest he's ever gone without fucking someone.

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

(before we end this I gotta give an honourable mention to this iconic Aristo moment)

Aristo, finding out about Apollo and Percy: *judo flips Apollo* *shoves a gun in his mouth* *curses him out in German*

She did this for a good four or five minutes before Demos and Leto successfully pulled him off.

The second most-voted option will be my December project, the third most will be January, and the fourth will be February. After that, I'll work on them all interchangeably, but I feel like a month of dedication to each is what I need to get them all going.

Quick plot descriptions of each one:

Through the Wreckage: Two guys in a relationship: John and Carlos. They get into a car accident, John goes into a coma, angst ensues. Inspired by Would You by Marthe Jocelyn.

Reading ToA: A continuation of some of my favourite "PJO reads" series. The characters read ToA, the CotG trilogy, and the TSATS duology. There will also be a sequel after all of that.

Perpollo Royal AU: Apollo is in an arranged marriage but wants to be with Percy. His betrothed, Demos, completely approves and tries to play Cupid on multiple occasions, along with Percy's brother Anteros.

I recently wrote a song about Percy and Apollo using the titles of my favourite Perpollo fics, and I wanted to share it with the people! I'll reblog this in a bit with links to the ones I used.

The Lovers of Apollo Club They say it must be so inclusive But true members are quite elusive Instead of a thousand, there's only, what, three of them? Once I'm done tallying tragedies on my fingers Let's focus on a boy

Too popular for his own good Too powerful for the king's peace of mind Every step he takes, he's asking for disaster But he's his favourite anyway

I never though I'd see the day

Moment by moment, I'm watching the latest Olympian romance bloom Their future is so... bright And as I'm walking through my gardens, I look into the distance and say

Sing, o' Muse Of when the horizon blooms Of when the sun meets the sea Look at this god forsaken fool you made me Singing of a love that isn't even mine

I'm constantly re-reading their chronicled fate They'll love each other more than the ocean and the sky But do you know? That it's not all sappy Tumblr poetry

I'm using the power of a prayer Day in, day out, at an altar for the best god To make sure that their life is like music, vast and magical And there won't be a single day without their light

Moment by moment, I'm watching two broken hearts heal I always pinch myself to make sure it's real For the first time in centuries, I can hear him calling

Sing, o' Muse Of when the horizon blooms Of when the sun meets the sea Look at this god forsaken fool you made me Singing for a boy who'll never be mine

'Tis the season for love I'm by the salt water springs And doing nothing but waiting It's about time for new summer romances, and I'm hoping to fulfill my latest mission...

The boy flows with the currents He's afraid to love like he had once before The god paces back and forth, trying to gather the words But somehow he's become a stuttering mess despite his normal eloquence

Every time they pass each other, there's hope But it's for only sixty seconds They always get too nervous But, one fateful day, I overhear something...

"No more hypotheticals, my love. We only have our future to look forward to." It's nothing more than a whisper, but it rings loud and true

Anddd the first chapter is up! I hope you all enjoy it!
