I'd walk through hell for you

All my percico stuff in one place!

[owlinanotheruniverse]

exploring Percy's canon interactions with Nico from botl and onwards on the level that I am for my fic is making me have a whole new perspective on percico and their relationship...

like Percy. oh, Percy cares for Nico so much and it's subtle at times but he's constantly reaching out at him, checking he's okay, making sure he's safe, inviting him to sit with him, asking him to keep in contact.

yet each time he does, Nico shuts it down with his own logic or brushes him off. there's nearly always something else he needs to do instead of going with what Percy suggests, and Percy always respects that.

at the end of botl, Percy respects Nico's need to leave camp, even if he does try and suggest options on how Nico could be welcome there, and then let's him go without any bitterness or other negativity (he even lightens the mood and makes Nico remember he's still a kid under there).

Percy accepts Nico for who he is and lets Nico go at his own pace. He doesn't push him or drag Nico's feelings down or blame anything on Nico's own actions.

also, at the end of the sword of Hades, Percy respects and understands Nico's need to stay in the Underworld while still offering out his support (by letting Nico know he's there if he needs anything).

Percy understands Nico's need to find out information about his family, get closer to Hades, stay in the Underworld & be one with it.

then, to top it all off, Percy uses his reward from the Gods to make sure Nico has a home, a safe place to go back to, somewhere where he can be accepted.

Nico is part of Percy's loyalty and honestly, I feel like if the two of them had simply got a chance to talk then Nico would have realised just how much he does mean to Percy.

I can't believe I forgot THIS. I was so focused on botl and I'd just started looking into post-botl when I made this post that I forgot about this key moment

Thank you for mentioning it because yes!!

I'm gonna start though. Percy was so determined (by not letting Annabeth or Grover talk him out of it) at keeping Nico's parentage a secret, at least until the prophecy had passed. He explicitly doesn't want to be the kid of the prophecy but no, he can't let that fall onto Nico. He doesn't deserve to suffer, be put in anymore danger, even though the kid literally just screamed about hating him a moment ago. Then to add to it he's even determined to make sure Luke doesn't find out about Nico either by putting himself in danger so that Luke has to focus on him.

Just thought about the fact that the most iconic blue nail polish in the nail polish community is called House of Hades. It’s a stunningly vibrant cobalt blue that almost seems to glow in real life.

Between the name and the color, it’s giving me percico vibes…

I always wanted a resolution between these two, and I never got it so I had to make it myself.

Nico is definitely one of those people who you think are quiet until you get to know them.

Percy is surprised at first by how funny Nico can be once he opens up, but he ends up becoming the one person who manages to make him laugh every time.

This is a gift to my friend! She wanted me to draw Nico and Percy hanging out together, and I was happy to comply.

Listen || The gradual progression of their feelings as the walls get torn down, the truth is made clear, and their relationship is forged.

1.// I know you don’t believe me when I believe in you. I know it could get much easier if we want it to 2.// You are a mirage in the distance that defies the heat of the desert. Should I believe in you?  3.// You say too late to start, got your heart in a headlock. I don’t believe any of it  4.// I know you care, I see it in the way that you stare as if there was trouble ahead and you knew it. You are just saving yourself when you hide it. 5.// I know what you want to say, I know it but can’t help feeling differently. I loved you, and I should have said it, but tell me just what has it ever meant? This is who I am. Sorry, but I can’t just go turn off how I feel. I know what I should do, but I just can’t walk away 6.// You don’t see what you possess, a beauty calm and clear. The shattered surface, so imperfect, is all that you believe 7.//  It’s a shame you don’t know what you’re running from, would it take the end of time to hear your heart’s false start? Stop pretending that you’re still breathing. 8.// When I’m around you I’m predictable, 'cause I believe in loving you at first sight. Oh you’re everything I’m wanting…will you welcome this confession? 9.// It was always you falling for me (It was always you) 10.// Light reflects from your shadow, it is more than I thought could exist. If someone believed me, they would be as in love with you as I am. And the end is unknown, but I think I’m ready as long as you’re with me.  11.// It’s a strange way of saying that I know I’m supposed to love you, I’m supposed to love you 12.// All I ever wanted was to be understood. You’ve been the only one who could, I could never turn my back on you. 13.// I’m feeling better ever since you know me. I was a lonely soul but that’s the old me. 14.// We kissed so warm that my skin, it smiled. I watched your face through my half-closed eyes. The face on the wall says, “Oh, you’ve changed — You’re a million miles from your desperate days” 15.// So I’ve dreamed since I met you. I’ve been hollowed by your body, I’ve been hypnotized by all you are 16.// Now, I’ve walked through hell for you, what’s an adventurer to do but rest these feet at home with you. 17.// You know me, you know everything about me now. My heart is in your hands and you know you could break it.

I still really like this playlist and I remade it on youtube. So here is a new youtube link

[februarywhite]

I accidentally started listening to the saddest playlist ever the other day, and I couldn’t stop myself from hurting my heart by doodling some angsty percico.

I couldn’t stop thinking about Nico and Percy when I listened to this song so I whipped this up. The gray lyrics are from Nico’s point of view and the green is from Percy’s, obviously. I used Viria’s art for the album cover(Please excuse my sloppy editing).

Scenario I get from this: Percy finds out about Nico’s secret, and Nico, of course, is horrified, and is still dealing with his self hatred stemming from it (“you can tell me how vile I already know that I am”). Yet, if it will make Percy feel any better Nico’ll try to be friends again, even if it’ll hurt. He’s glad Percy won’t hold it against him, but he just wants him to forget about it since reciprocation of his feelings is impossible.

Percy still wants to be friends/close to him, but understands how his presence hurts Nico, and so tries to stay out of his way. He doesn’t want to “pour salt in his wounds.” As it goes on, though, it gets to the point where Nico has become the “blood in his veins,” and Percy returns his feelings.

Both think the other put too much faith in them, and that they let the other down (“call me a safe bet, I’m betting I’m not”). However, this line also has a double meaning for Percy because it implies that while Nico is certain Percy could never return his feelings, Percy is saying that he shouldn’t be so sure.

Back to back

I like the idea of them just being dumb teenage boys and taking down monsters together with a flick of their wrist and a cocky smile.

[februarywhite]

Haha crap this is lame. I was originally going to make a little “oh no i guess we’ll have to share the bed” comic, but it didn’t happen. Oh well.

[februarywhite]

I finally got around to finishing my drawings of Percy and Nico from Midnightinjapan’s percico fic What Happened in Venice?. Here they are in their carnival costumes (can you tell I’m no good at costume designing?).

Anyway, this fic is great and you should read it!

[februarywhite]

I read midnightinjapan’s percico fic What Happened in Venice? and fell in love! So I drew Nico in the carnival costume he wears while they’re in Venice, although I did take some artistic liberty. I’ll do Percy too if I have the time.

This fic is seriously good, though, as are all of her other works. If you like percico you have got to check them out!

[februarywhite]

Ugh sorry sorry sorry! These are embarrassing… When I get stressed out nowadays I scribble out percico in the middle of the night, hence the sloppiness and general awkwardness. But I also kind of like them, so I thought I might as well share with you guys! I ship percico so hard now it’s ridiculous, I don’t even know what to do! I guess the only remedy for an otp this strong is to keep drawing them, ha. So if you liked these you can expect about a billion more. Maybe they’ll be of higher quality…

[februarywhite]

I’m sorry, I just couldn’t stop myself from drawing some unoriginal percico. I was in desperate need of a bit of cute fluff after reading all of  Nico’s pain in House of Hades and this was just what the doctor ordered.
