The thing is neither enemy to lovers or friends to lovers is my favorite trope. In fact I always love the ships where the couple have a short of rivalry going on but at the same time they have to work together and are kind of partners that secretly are found of each other but also can't stay without bickering/fighting for more than 3 seconds

"This song do not work well with *insert platonic/romantic ship* ! Their dynamic in the canon is so much different ! "

Well it works perfectly fine with my animation in my head full of my silly headcanons and AU's so-

Annabeth: [bedraggled, half-dead, deranged grin, eye bags, contemplating homocide]

Percy: That's my fucking wife! That, right there, is my wife and I love her so much!!

[poppitron360]

A lot of people have headcannoned that Percabeth’s children would be named after someone they knew that died (Charlie/Selena/Zoë) but counterpoint: I don’t think they’d do that because Names. Have. Power.

The reason Percy was named “Perseus” was because he was the only hero who got a happy ending. Sally knew that naming her son after him would hopefully bring him good fortune and a long life. Percy and Annabeth would want to honour their friends that lost their lives, but I don’t think they’d do that by naming their child after them.

I actually wrote this into one of my “Next Generation” fanfics as angst. Percabeth’s second child is taken by monsters at a young age, and Percy blames it on the fact that they gave him the middle name “Charlie” after Beckendorf. He thought he was dooming his child to be just another person the Great Percy Jackson could not save. But Beckendorf was a hero, and the kid turns out to be a total badass in the end.

Anyway, feel free to disagree. I know people have thought long and hard about their Percababies headcannons, and it’s something rather personal. But it’s a cool concept to explore. If you’re stuck for heacannons, maybe this might give you a few ideas?

Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson: The Exploration of an INTJ & ESFP Relationship.

Percy and Annabeth are your typical “opposites attract” scenario, and in my opinion, one of the healthiest. However, they didn’t start off that way, and the development of Annabeth and Percy is one of the most intriguing and fascinating relationships I have seen in a while.

Annabeth is an INTJ, and Percy is an ESFP meaning they have “opposite” personalities on paper, but they do have the same cognitive functions- just in opposite order. When they are around each other, they are able to develop their tertiary and inferior functions (their “weak spots”) in a way that they aren’t able to do with anyone else.

High Ni-Te vs High Se-Fi

The interesting part of Annabeth and Percy as characters is that while they do disagree with each other a lot, they are inarguably at their strongest when around each other.

Where Percy is impulsive, Annabeth thinks ahead. Percy offers an emotional perspective where Annabeth may be stuck in her own head, and may be unwilling to see past the concrete facts.

Annabeth being an Ni user, her ability to break a problem down and create a plan based on it, allows Percy to learn from her. Percy is not much of a planner, but the longer he is with Annabeth, the more he is able to think through the consequences, the more he thinks about the future, but it’s also where we see his more logical side.

However, Percy’s Se and his ability to react in the moment has also kept them out of trouble, and it has also allowed Annabeth to come out of her shell a bit more, because in reality there are times where they do have to react in the moment. Not only this, but Annabeth begins to use her Fi a lot more around Percy, and understanding and valuing what she wants, not just what seems logically sound.

Te-Fi vs. Fi-Te

Annabeth relies more on her logic (Te) than her morals and emotions, but they are still present when she makes her decisions. Percy relies more on his emotions (Fi) than the logic and facts- but again, they are still present when he talks about his feelings.

Part of this is because Annabeth buries her emotions, and focuses on the facts of the situation, while Percy will only focus on the facts of the situation when they benefit his morals and emotions.

As the “middle” functions, these are actually the functions that allow them to connect the most. They build connections, because morally and logically, they are usually in agreement. They disagree with the gods as a whole, and they are able to understand ways in which they logically don’t make sense. What is also quite interesting is that they offer insights, through the lower functions that neither have really considered before.

Annabeth’s Fi is definitely lower than her Te, but her connection with Luke, and her deep-seated belief that he is good at heart gives Percy a perspective that he hasn’t gotten, and it’s what inspires him to change the system that caused Luke to go astray.

Percy growing up outside of Camp Half Blood, also allows him to have a different logical perspective than Annabeth. When he arrives to Camp Half Blood, he is able to see that the gods rules aren’t logically sound, and he challenges Annabeth’s perspective on the gods quite frequently.

What makes them a great couple?

Frequently, when two characters have opposite personality types, they are seen as incompatible, because they are unwilling to develop their lower cognitive functions to see from their partner’s point of view. However, this is not the case with Percy and Annabeth, in fact they develop as characters because they offer each other a perspective that neither one of them had considered before meeting each other.

Of course, they didn’t get along initially, but in their defense… they were twelve. No twelve year old is completely developed as a human being, and even then, they are still mature enough to move past their differences to get along and get the job done.

You can fall to ship so different

OK. I have to write this. There are several types of ships, but what bothers me the most is that few people realize that the relationship and receipt of these ships are also different. Let me highlight for you the three most significant ones.

( I am so drunk, and i have this thought all week, i don't have people too share.)

Boom

Sometimes a ship steals your heart instantly. All you need is to see them together, the views, the word, the common history, the aesthetics. and boom. You feel their dynamics. And suddenly it's just together. it's them. these two. (or more) They have it. You know. Chemical right here! Boomb.

_ They just say hey!

_ exactly. You see how they did this!?!?

2. Potential

Sometimes you like Character A and want the best for him. You love him. You know he should be happy (or not), but you want him to open up to someone in person. Or just open up his history.

And when you see Character B, you look closely. You see something. They together. Interaction. You look for their interactions, poke a stick into this relationship dynamic and !boom!!!

Yes, it will. they might work. Character B is good for Character A. More than good.

You look at character C and D (people tell you that they can be a love interest/ it's a canon) but at that moment - you say no.

Because Character A and Character B have such Potential. They have chemistry and the potential to explore each other's stories., feelings, sides. They can give something to others. They can.

You see this. You ship this.

3. and the last option. I honestly hate it. There is no escape from this...

Connection

Character A and Character B are connected. They has a story, they have dynamics. They can be each other's friends/mentors/students/family/siblings/ enemies/colleagues. They have a connection and at first you don't see that it could be romantic. Of course not. They can't be lovers. They just....

Until one day you realize that their connection with each other is already deep. Too Deep. that there are two parts to the story; and how they can still be anything other than part of the other's story. What does a romantic relationship mean when they already have something more.

And it's killing me. I didn't want to ship them. it is an accident. I just...do you see their connection?! This love? This potential? Better-sweet thing that they can be more?!?

In most stories (fick, au, people minds) it's platonic/familial love or nemesis relationship, but your brain decides it can add romantic love into the mix.

Here we are. Again

No escape.
