Thinking of writing a perpollo fic, would anyone be interested in reading it once its done?
so ive read a lot of perpollo fics recently, and a lot of athenide as well, and was thinking of writing one loosely based on that.
I noticed a lot of the perpollo fics i have bookmarked are no longer updating and I understand that things get tough for fic writers with work, environemntal factors and family/personal issues, I've written a few fics myself for other fandoms and struggled to continue updating for various reasons, though never fics as long as the one im planning, and ive just gotten a bit frustrated.
I'll repeat myself again, I in no way blame the authors of these fics. I got frustrated at the lack of finished perpollo and decided screw it, im gonna write it myself, and wanted to know it anyone would read a fic of a troupe that's already been done a lot?
ive already planned out nearly the whole fic (like half my notebook is taken up with just the plan for this thing, its getting massive), and just need to research a bit more on ancient greek stuff and write it now, (estimated to be about 72k words if i keep up a 3k words per chapter, but will probably either go way over or under knowing me), but i wouldn't upload any chapters until the whole fic is written beginning to end.
Additionally,
Is the athenide au overly done?? I see loads of fics or beginning of fics that use the athenide and was wondering if i did write a fic loosely based around it (with my own twists and plot ofc), would anyone be interested in reading yet another time travel/athenide au it if i did write it?
How do people feel about Fem!Percy in Perpollo?
The fic im thinking of writing, im planning on using Fem!Percy, then again I haven't actually written much of it, and it could be changed if no one but me enjoys it.
Also, how do people feel about PJO fics writers changing up some of the cannon / mythology lore to fit in with fics?
Do people prefer it to be in line with cannon or go off script? I have no preference and if i do write it and share it, i want other people to enjoy it too.
I just kind of want to write a fic that I could be satisfied with that has an ending, and want to be able to share it with others so that they can enjoy it too.
Plot
The general basis of the Plot:
Percy going back in time w amnesia (though idk if its going back in time if Percy is technically already in the time twice before going back in time??)
Becoming a deity of Athens (though in this fic Athena is NOT Percys mum)
Poseidon trying his best (he really does try his best in this one, not always best executed, but its the thought that counts)
Zeus getting overly paranoid causing things to blow out of proportion
Perpollo being hunted down
A whole other new phrophecy but for the gods (which honestly was the hardest thing to write)
Happy ending? (querie on if its a happy ending, it could go both ways, ive got two versions planned out :] )
A slow burn perpollo with angst on the side with memory stuff (again, amount of angst depends on which version I go with)
let me know what you think.
I made it, changed some things about it, but its all written and im uploading every Tuesday around 6 - 8pm GMT.
