- Kid #1 is Grace (named after Thalia and Jason) and Kid #2 is named Lucas aka Luke (Percy’s idea surprisingly - for sentimental reasons, obviously… plus, OG Luke was close to Annabeth, and lastly - and Percy will never admit this - he likes giving his son the name of someone who spited the gods that badly).
- I enjoy the idea of Percabeth having a child who is very similar to Percy in personality and isn’t the most observant, but has a very specific area of intelligence… so this is Grace in a nutshell.
- Like, she doesn’t know that New York’s capital is Albany but she knows off the top of her head that 325 x 46 is 14,950. Due to this, people always forget she actually could be considered a genius.
Camper: wow, this… plan is actually really good, Grace. How did you think of this?
Grace: my grandmother is Athena, dipshit. Now stop discussing battle strategy so I can ask the important questions - tacos. Are they sandwiches or what?
- Then you got Luke who is very studious like Annabeth so you know he’s an intelligent guy and he’s very calm and collected and reasonable but every once in awhile someone really pisses him off and - while outwardly he’s very polite - a bathroom or something might explode in the background. Everyone is low key terrified of him.
Camper: um, so, uh… It looks like someone, um, stole your book… probably someone from the Hermes cabin…
Luke: oh no! That’s unfortunate! *ground shakes* I hope we can find it in time (:
Camper: in time for… What?
Luke: just in time (: *water pipe breaks*
Grace: I think I might like girls…
Luke: You… You didn’t know? Wait. Grace, you’re literally dating someone. I - damnit, one second. I’m trying to figure out this equation. What’s the Earth’s diameter?
Grace: 7,917.5 miles. Who am I dating?
Luke: You are objectively the worst person I’ve ever met.
- So, technically, both have abilities from Athena and Poseidon, but are both naturally inclined to one over the other. Ironically, they prefer the opposite to what they have bc of their personalities. So Grace’s godly strengths are naturally more Athena-like, but spends most of her time trying to tap into water powers. Luke is more on the Poseidon end of the spectrum, but desperately is working to be as smart and cunning as Athena.
- EYE SHIFTING. I can’t decide eye color so they get both. When deep in thought it’s stormy gray and whenever vibing with water they turn sea green. When neither is happening they are just a dimmed down greenish-gray.
- Grace uses a sword and Luke uses a spear.
- During one of their big adventures Grace is in deep trouble and without a weapon. She has limited time to pray to a god to help her. Nah. She’s like “fuck y’all, my dad may not be a god, but he’s reliable” so she prays to Percy and sure enough! Riptide appears to her 😌
Percy: I need to launch Riptide at that wall
Percy: Grace needs me. I feel it. I gotta throw Riptide at the wall-
Annabeth: Grace-? She’s - where is my baby?!?!
- This is a little random, but now I’m just imagining how epic legos would be with Annabeth as their mom. Like, Grace and Luke ask their mom to help them build something with then and Percy walks in the room the next day to find a whole ass lego village and Luke is arguing with Grace about lego zoning laws.
- Luke inherits his mom’s yankee cap and uses it for all sorts of shenanigans. By shenanigans I mean spying. This boy has an ungodly amount of blackmail on literally everyone. The Aphrodite cabin revels in his power.
- Also, as mentioned above, Grace likes girls and her coming out to her family was VERY dramatic. So dramatic. The most drama.
Grace: mom… dad… I’m gay.
Percy: we… know? Didn’t you already come out?
Grace: No! No, I didn’t! You knew?!
Annabeth: It wasn’t particularly subtle, Grace. But we are very proud of you and happy you’re comfortable to tell us-
Grace: I was anticipating something more dramatic than this.
Percy: Oh? I got you. Try again.
Percy: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! I - I don’t understand! How did we miss the signs? I’ve never even seen you wear flannel! How did this start? Did someone give you a beanie? Did you listen to that youth band ‘Upset At the Club’? I’m so blinded by this -
Grace: …okay. I can get with this. Up the drama.
Percy: I don’t accept you. You are banished from this household - no, wait. I’m having a change of heart. I’m remembering you are my daughter and having flashbacks to you growing up. Your happiness is important to me. I self-reflect and decide my opinion of who you love doesn’t matter. I think of all the travesties in the world and know you are amazing and strong. I decide to buy a pride sticker to show my support. You are accepted.
Grace: Thank you, that was beautiful.
Luke: ….so, like, did Aphrodite trick you into marrying him or…?
Annabeth: sometimes I’m not sure.
- Luke falls in love with a mortal girl and is super angsty about the whole thing. She isn’t clear-sighted so he knows it would be hard for her to interact with his world. He goes to Grandpa Paul often to discuss this. Paul is super cool and just ‘if you really like this girl and she likes you then I would be happy to walk her through this Greek stuff. It was a little hard when dating Sally, but it worked out fine’ (:
- I should mention Grace and Luke are tight. They’re very close in many ways, but also annoy each other within 5 seconds of seeing the other. Whenever they go to Camp Half-Blood they tend to stay in Poseidon’s cabin since it’s empty BUT one of them always ends up in Athena’s because they fight so much.
- That being said… ride or die.
Grace: Don’t ask any questions but… I pissed off a god
Luke: Screw you, I’m gonna ask a question anyway - any chance for forgiveness or are we fighting a god?
- They both dye their hair constantly. It’s a whole thing. Nobody is really certain what their natural hair color is bc it changes from colors like blue or maybe black or blonde or red, etc… even their root color tends to be dyed, so people claim they’ve seen them have both blonde and black roots. The only thing they do know is that its curly like Annabeth’s, but it could be black or blonde. Remains a mystery. Percy and Annabeth won’t tell and all baby pictures are hidden.
- I know lots of people HC that Annabeth and Percy don’t get married bc of Hera, therefore, they both keep their last names. Sticking with that, Luke and Grace get to choose their surnames. For awhile, they were hyphened, but Grace HATED it because “Mom, I love you, but Grace Chase-Jackson just sounds so stupid” so she just went with Grace Jackson. Luke, on the other hand, was like “Forget her, mom. She’s rude and Chase is an awesome last name” so he’s Lucas Chase.
- Aunt Estelle is their favorite person ever and that’s it. That’s all you need to know. Also, Grandma Sally is adored and whenever they visit they make her read her books out loud to them.
- No quests are allowed for either of them. Percy and Annabeth downright REFUSE. At one point, the gods literally just kidnap them to ask them to complete a quest and you got Percabeth going full PTA parent on them afterwards.
Percabeth, to the gods: They are NOT your children. You had absolutely no right-
Grace and Luke: Look! We killed Medusa!
Percabeth: Omg! Wow! That’s so amazing! We’re so proud! We’re gonna have to get something special for dinner tonight! Why don’t you go pick out what you want? Uh huh andddd they’re gone. The audacity. The disrespect. You can’t just KIDNAP them without even telling us or having the common decency…
- These poor children have to deal with the burden of having hot parents and all the other campers thirsting over them RIP.
- They have a weird relationship with their grandparents. Athena and Poseidon don’t really have grandchildren… Their Roman counterparts don’t even have grandchildren, so they don’t know what to make of one another. Grace and Luke aren’t super impressed by them bc they are the reason their parents’ lives were so difficult. Also, their mortal grandparents are bomb af so Athena and Poseidon don’t hold a candle to them. Still, Annabeth and Percy try to nudge the relationship along…
Luke: I give this offering to Poseidon and Athena… Um, I respect you. Hope we’re cool. My dad said we should so this every so often so we aren’t blasted…
Grace: I give this offering to Hades and Apollo for having a super attractive granddaughter. I - MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS, LUCAS! IT IS MY OFFERING AND I - whatever. Fine. I give this offering to Poseidon and Athena for having a super attractive granddaughter-
- During another one of their big adventures Luke ends up meeting Athena and Poseidon. He’s pretty shook by the whole experience, but tbh Athena and Poseidon are even more shook because this boy really saw these powerful gods and said ‘I’m so honored you’re here and want to help me, but I kind of want to get out of this myself’ and then he that mad lad escaped whatever near-death experience he was facing without their aid.
- At one point I want either Grace or Luke to turn evil for a hot second. Maybe possessed or brainwashed or something else, but I want these two to be pitted against one another and reach full angst potential.
- btw there’s always this younger kid hanging around them. Like, maybe 4 years younger than Luke and everyone just assumes it’s an unclaimed demigod who is starstruck. Then at one point someone hears “Zoë go back inside or else I’ll tell mom and dad” and the entire camp just riots because THERE IS A THIRD-
