#pining jason

[yonemurishiroku]

I have never said this. But the first fic that got me into Jasico is a Solangelo fanfic with one-sided Jasico and yes, Jason is the pining one.

The irony.

[festito]

mmm for the writing prompts maybe leo and jason after the war if the war had ended w the both of them alive

the first thing he hears is leo’s voice behind him. “it’s over,” leo says, disbelieving, and jason wipes the sweat from his brow.

he lowers his sword, hands shaking and knuckles white against the dark leather. jason turns to look at leo, and...

leo looks beautiful. he’s staring at the sky, eyes tired but full of wonder, as if he can’t believe that they’ve won. his lips are slightly parted and sweat slides down his cheek, dripping down his neck and slipping under his shirt.

and jason—jason wants to kiss him. he almost laughs at the realization—it’s not a new urge, but now? now he can love and he can want without the weight of the entire world on his shoulders.

all of a sudden, leo laughs aloud. “it’s over!” he yells to nobody and everybody, and a cheer rises from the crowd around them. jason sees exhausted, sweaty demigods celebrating together in relief, and smiles.

it’s finished, and they’re alive.

Sunlight filtered through the blinds, making the room sparkle with dust.

There you are in the kitchen, frying pancakes and humming to a song long forgotten with time. Your hair is pulled out of your face and the apron Percy got you as a joke is tied loosely behind your back.

The TV is on but I’m not paying attention. The weatherman will get it wrong anyway. All I’m worried about now is you.

I came over last night to binge-watch old Disney movies and play Uno. Uno isn’t as fun when it’s just two people, but I’ll never forget the way your face lit up when you won. I let you win for the rest of the night.

I came as a friend.

You flip the pan with one hand and look back at me to see if I’m watching. I’m always watching.

I could watch you for hours. When you’re rambling, singing (I can hear you in the shower, quit trying to deny it), or my favorite— when you act like no one's watching. I adore all the shy smiles, twirling of hair, and every huff of annoyance.

“Food’s ready!” your voice rings out. You untie your apron but keep your hair up as you set my plate down.

Maybe I’ll tell you today. Make it quick but probably cheesy. I might even quote some gross romcom we watched when the nightmares became too much.

Or I’ll do it when we go mini-golfing and make a stupid pun that Leo would die for.

I don’t know when I’ll tell you. I want it to be soon, but every time I work up the courage I chicken out. I don’t know what you’ll say, I don’t even know what I’ll say. But I want it to be short and sweet, something that you won’t have to dissect the meaning of.

I love you. For as long as I’ve known you I’ve loved you. I didn’t know it then, but I know it now.

I love you.

Hanahaki AU

in which Jason is coughing out flowers

and Nico is freaking out, trying to prying out a name so that maybe they can work it out somehow, because he can’t lose his precious friend

whereas Will is struggling to keep his promise of not telling his boyfriend that the one Jason loves is Nico himself.

This came out because I want to see Nico so devastated at Jason’s impending death to the point of begging him to do the removing surgery, all the while unaware of the fact that he himself is the object of affection. And Jason just loves him too much to let go.

And Will’s POV because it’s paradoxical enthralling that way.

[yonemurishiroku]

something something an Aged-Up AU in which Jason sees Nico take care of Hazel’s child and Oh, I want to marry him.

Which he can’t btw because I’m resolute in putting this in an AU wherein the only form of love either of them might get is grief

[yonemurishiroku]

Jason and Nico talk about one-sided love and Nico keeps talking earnestly about how he got over Percy, became comfortable with himself got a wonderful supportive sweet boyfriend for himself — all the while being completely blissfully oblivious of Jason’s one-sided love for him.

“Does it hurt? Loving someone who’d never be yours.”

Jason asks, and like a good friend, Nico answers.

“It does. But it gets better over time. And one day it’d stop.”

If Nico wasn’t too wrapped up in his own story, he would see the way sadness and longing cloud his friend’s azure skies - not much different from that time his own earthy brown broke into shattered glasses.

But he is. So, Jason’s heart remains unheard.

it was almost love - a thought

All this time, the conception of “true love” in Piper’s mind was pretty much like everyone’s else: two people who were born for each other, to find happiness in each other, to dedicate and receive, to love and be loved in kind. Their fates were woven into one another’s. They were meant to be.

It didn’t seem to be the case with Jason.

He, too, did love. Oh, how much, how great, how deep Jason Grace could love - Piper had been watching it grow all this time and still, it astounded her to the point of bafflement. And that bafflement only increased when she realized that his love wasn’t reciprocated.

See, Nico di Angelo had Will Solace.

He didn’t even know about Jason’s infatuation, let alone answering it.

And yet, Jason still loved.

He loved with everything in him. Piper could see it. The way he loved - sorry to Apollo, the Muses, and Shakespeare but no poetry or love story or fairy tale could ever measure up. Its sheer immensity ran so deep it made Nico’s lack of reciprocation insignificant. The jealousy was nonexistent.

As long as the one he loved was happy.

And it confused Piper. She didn’t know how she should identify it. “A great love” seemed unfitting. It felt like no word could ever grasp the untainted depth of Jason’s love. It frustrated her. Especially when he showed no sign of ever voicing it and Nico di Angelo appeared more romantically blind than Piper could ever expected. Sure Will Solace could be a dazzling sun ray of a boyfriend but surely he couldn’t be that blind?

His obliviousness and happiness with Will kept grating on her. Piper’s patience was running extremely thin.

She had contemplated disclosing countless times.

And then her mother decided it was a good time to pay a visit.

“True love,” Aphrodite had said, a wistful sign in her praising tone. Piper realized.

It had never been about the people. It was all about love - as it should be.

Jason loved so purely there was nothing else but it. His love had never been about giving and receiving. He just——loved. He gave away because that was what his heart desired. He loved because he wanted to - with or without Nico’s answer. He loved because it was a part of himself.

Truly and wholly.

Jason loved like nothing else ever mattered.

Piper thought it was more beautiful than everything she had witnesses.
