filipino percy jackson â bulleted headcanons
my percy jackson is filipino <33
sallyâs parents were OFWs (Oversees Filipino Workers) who migrated to the US for better job opportunities; however their death forced sally to stay in the US permanently as an immigrant
the reason why percy is the shortest among the trio during the first few books (and at some point shorter than annabeth), is because filipinos are genetically short
percy speedruns chores before sally comes home, loves rice and the rice cooker, wears slippers (tsinelas) all the time, sits with one leg up, points with his lips etc. â the typical filipino kid
he loves blue pancit canton (one of sallyâs homemade specialties of course) and eats it with blue coke
he owns a teal jersey with âJACKSON 18â written on it that he wears whenever he plays basketball
percy is quite flexible and usually sits in an âasian squatâ in which the other campers try to copy but fail to do so
percy gets so excited whenever he meets other filipino-american demi-gods and mortals alike
he started crying over seafood after being claimed by poseidon â filipino cuisine contains a large variety of seafood (coming from a tropical country) in which percy can no longer enjoy the same way
whenever he leads zumba/any warm up exercises in CHB, itâs always Otso Otso
percy tricks people he doesnât like luke into thinking that âputangina moâ means âi love youâ
he sometimes blurts âmahal kitaâ (the real âi love youâ) when talking to annabeth, knowing that she doesnât understand what heâs saying
he trolls people with jejemon texts;
percy: eLlOw fOe mUztAH kA nA fO3 (hey, how are you?)
annabeth: i donât speak bullshit
percy loves and respects his mom so much â it doesnât matter what his race or ethnicity is, this is canon in every way
he calls her âmaâ (mama) or ânayâ (nanay)
percy is the kindest kid youâll ever meet âheâll take care of everybody even when no one asked â because filipinos are known for their hospitality, be disrespectful and you get the slipper
his eyes have brown gradients around his pupils when he was younger but as he grows older (and more powerful) his eyes become fully sea green
the tips of his hair turns sea green when in contact with saltwater
percy has a good voice and teaches OPM (original filipino music) songs to other campers (especially the apollo cabin) to sing in the campfire
percy is left-handed (kaliwete) ; but was trained to be ambidextrous when he arrived at CHB
percy is the type of kid who likes burning things with a magnifying glass;
annabeth and grover: percy what are you do-
percy: CHECK THIS OUT *burns stuff*
highkey fighting the urge to call athena âtitaâ because he might get yeeted
