Cabin 7 Headcanons part 2

On the winter solstice they stay up all night to welcome their dad back while singing here comes the sun

As a gift Apollo gives all his children a little phial with one of the sun chariot's rays so they always have sunlight with them

They once had a contest to see who could break the most glasses while singing. All windows in CHB were lost that day

The cabin is littered with divination stuff: tarot decks, crystal balls, pendulums, ogham, rune stones. You name it, they have it

Every night one of the older campers sings everyone to sleep

Books all over the place

Under a bed: book

Medicine cabinet: book

Inside the freaking piano: book

Trivia nights against the Athena cabin

Every surface can be used for writing if inspiration comes and you don't have a notebook

Like walls full of poetry and music and also drawings

660. Some children of Apollo are born with the ability to affect music around them. (i.e. the car radio turns to their favorite station when it plays their favorite song without them even reaching for the radio). Once, a child of Apollo with this ability had a song stuck in her head and every radio in a 10 mile radius played the song.

679. Rachel is always welcome to sit at the Apollo kids’ table. Because of that, and the fact that she’s mortal and has a phone, she always updates the Apollo kids with trends and TikToks. Now, they always reference vines and do the renegade and the other campers are scared of them when they do it in unison.

707. Apollo children are gifted with glowing skin (literally), bright eyes - no matter what color - and they have freckles everywhere. They are always hot and are solar-powered.

Nico: Apollo cabin, come together for a brief meeting.

Will: But you’re not part of the Apollo cabin…

Nico: And you’re not the ghost king, son of one of the big three and heir to the throne of the underworld, but I don’t just throw that in your face every damn day

demigod power hcs 1/?

apollo - cabin 7

in which i discuss/elaborate on what powers the demigods could have that are/aren’t mentioned

ok so first off let’s establish what apollo is the god of. sun, light, healing, poetry, music, archery, prophecy, knowledge, truth, and science. (also side note his sacred animals include mice and snakes)

let’s start with sun and light. we’ve never really seen any apollo campers with abilities relating to this, but the possibilities are endless. there could be apollo campers with the ability to manipulate light, whether it be changing the intensity of light or being able to move the direction of light rays or because apollo drives the sun chariot, they could be able to tell the time from where the sun is in the sky. (lmao can u imagine this 12 year old shows up and accidentally like redirects light and everyone’s like wtf dude,,,)

for healing, we’ve already seen that the apollo campers run the infirmary in camp half-blood, and more specifically we’ve seen healing powers in Will Solace. in the last olympian, when Will heals Annabeth, he’s shown to put unicorn draught on the wound and “hum a hymn to apollo”. so already in canon, we know that some campers would be able to have the ability to heal with the help of apollo’s powers. because apollo is the god of medicine, i hc that the apollo campers with healing powers would also have an extensive knowledge of medical terms and treatment, so that even though they can use healing powers they also can have basic first aid training (like when will was able to deliver a baby at 14, what was chiron on approving this). another power will shows is that he’s able to sense the darkness inside of Nico when he arrives at camp half-blood. i like to think that because he can sense that, he would also be able to sense sicknesses and diseases that the patient has by just touching them. (i like to think that will is the most talented healer of his generation, idk if it’s canon or not, but let me indulge myself)

for poetry, we already know from canon that the apollo campers can curse people by forcing them to speak in poems (in the last olympian when the ares cabin are cursed into speaking rhyming couplets). because poetry is such a huge part of apollo’s image, i hc that most of his kids are at least above average with poetry. (can u imagine these kids taking unseen poetry exams?? these kids would ACE it)

for music, i have the same hc as poetry that all the kids have an appreciation and natural talent for music, and some kids would just be AMAZING at music and have beautiful singing voices and some would be just naturally good at instruments, but some (like Will admitted in the blood of olympus) are better at other things (i read a fic where the apollo cabin had a music night where they just play music super loudly and rate it and argue about it and i just.... YES)

for archery, i headcanon that all of the kids have more or less some expertise in this, but some kids are INSANE at it (lee fletcher, michael yew, kayla knowles). i think that the majority of the cabin are definitely pretty good at archery though (because most of the apollo campers are shown to be preferring to use bow and arrows as their preferred weapon in tbl, tlo, and throughout the heroes of olympus)

prophecy’s a tricky one, because there’s already an oracle with the blessing of apollo, so it’s hard to say whether the apollo kids would inherit any of that. i like to think there would be a select few apollo kids that would have the ability to see not very far into the future, but be able to predict small things, like sports games bets and spoilers for movies.

one that’s not really elaborated at all in canon is that apollo is the god of truth, knowledge and science. most people would think that all the smart demigods would automatically be in the athena cabin, but i like to think that there would be these super smart kids that arrive and everyone’s like yeah they’re totally athena cabin and they’re all waiting for them to be claimed but then they’re put in apollo. it also makes sense for the kids to inherit scientific abilities, especially when a kid already has healing powers.

well there you have it! that’s the end of my long and rambling rant about my fav cabin. you can send suggestions for the next cabin i do!

(feel free to add any more)

APOLLO CABIN KIDS n.1

So.. Apollo's kid huh. What's your thing?

My thing?

Yeah, do u art, music, heal? What did u get from Apollo?

.....*mumbles*

What?

.....I GLOW WHEN I'M EXCITED

The Apollo cabin. Very versatile in the talents they inherited from pops. Apollo kids come in three categories (mostly): healer, bard and artist (but gods there is more, Apollo really couldn't pick a hoby)

I have two words for you: illegal karaoke

We all know of the magical powers of singing, now imagine a bunch of kids, children of the god of singing and music, pouring their hearts out singing

The first time it happened in a bigger number? Chaos. Pure chaos. Beside the usual talking in rhymes or just plain singing that is quite normal and expected, everyone who attended the karaoke was singing and dancing for 3 days as in a Broadway production

I had ideas here but forgot them. Fuck adhd

Apollo kids that just know what time it is (during daytime). They could be stuck in a cave and they would be able to tell you exzacly the time of day

Or Apollo kids who are basically blind in places of little light. No sun? Can't see

Apollo kids who so well everywhere, but aren't really good at anything. They have a nice singing voice, can draw pretty well, they can patch u up nice and have a good aim at archery but they don't really excel at anything

Apollo kids tan sooo easy. One hour in the sun? Tan. Whole winter without the sun? Tan the second it sees you.

Alternatively: freckles. Little ones like paint splattered across the nose or bigger ones spread like constellations across the skin. Freckles.

"Why are you wearing sunglasses?"

"I'm pissed at dad."

It can happen that Apollo kids will be "kidnapped" by the Demeter cabin in place of plant lights

They have learned that bribery is more efficient though. A capri sun and an alliance to destroy the other cabins in the next game of Capture the flag

Little prophecies they spew out accidentally:

"Don't forget an umbrella." "I'd rather skip the burritos today if i were you." "Its dangerous to go alone. Take this." gets handed some cat food.

Maybe its them being caring? Might just be that you'll get stuck in a thunderstorm with all your art or the beans in burritos have been primed to explode by the Demeter cabin or you will encounter a baby sphinx. Who knowss

Just imagine Apollo kids with photokinesis making hand guns and shooting lasers

Fantasy character archery competition debates. Robin Hood vs Katniss vs Merida and so on. This could get heated

Apollo kids who can tell when someone is lying! Apollo kids who can make truth serums! The potential in this! Mua

Gimme Apollo kids spewing out random facts

Apollo kids having competitions with the Athena cabin! (Apollo the god of knowledge)

Stereotypes can be quite hard on Apollo kids too. Happy personality like sunshine and always positive. I think they feel pressured to be like that

But sun is not all warm summer skies and beach days. Its also the blinding reflection on the white snow, suffocating heat in humid summers, hot desert wastes and light retracting in water and so much more

Demeter: -1-

Athena: -1-

Apollo: -2-

Aphrodite: -1- -2-

Hypnos: -1-

A new Apollo kids headcannon

Apollo loves his kids a lot okay. And he is a little bit embarrassing but it’s not like he has their baby pictures right? Right...? WRONG.

Not only does Apollo have ALL of each of his children’s baby photos, he has them all in their own special binders decorated with the things his kids are passionate about and it’s not just baby photos either. There are pictures from one of his kid’s first musicals that of course he attended in disguise and later seemed like a random stranger that told them how amazing they did. In Will’s he has a picture of him playing with a a toy docotors set when he was four and yes, Apollo sent him that gift but it was labeled as from Santa.

It has the pictures of them from their first days of school taken in front of the door with their cute outfits and backpacks on from preschool to high school all ordered correctly like he was there. Apollo loves and I mean LOVES his kids so much and even if he can’t visit them as much as he’d like to, he’s sure as Hades gonna get all the pictures and memories he can with them.

In conclusion Apollo is best godly parent, thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

[murkymuse]

Okay but Apollo’s kids dealing badly with crushes. 

Apollo kid: What if my crush rejects me? What if my crush rejects me so much that they turn into a tree?!

Friend: I don’t think that’ll happen…

Apollo kid: It is a legitimate concern!

[1940snico]

Austin: WHAT DO WE WANT?

Apollo Cabin: TO BLAST MUSIC

Austin: WHEN DO WE WANT IT?

Apollo Cabin: AT 2 AM TO WAKE UP THE ENTIRE CAMP

[superparadise-ghost]

PROTECT ANTHONY AT ALL COSTS. also,,,,i don’t want to be annoying but i just want an excuse for more headcanons from u so any kayla headcanons? (ik she’s not an oc but,,,)

YES I HAVE SOME FOR KAYLA!!!!

HUGE Heathers fan

musical or movie she could care less, both are fan-freaking-tastic (feel free to kill me)

there was a competition between the cabin once and let’s just say the outcome was finding out Kayla can fit nineteen marshmallows on her mouth at once

she could probably kill somebody but prefers not to because Will will scold her and that’s honestly not worth the effort

bonus for Will: he cries when he scolds people, nobody wants to see the boy cry, therefore Kayla doesn’t want to be scolded

her best friend is Lacy from the Aphrodite cabin

together they’re unstoppable

that’s why the Apollo cabin and the Aphrodite cabin aren’t allowed to compete in capture the flag on the same team

her hair has been many different colours. once it was a mixture of pink, purple and blue

Bi Bi Bi (bi bi)

favourite band is Flatsound

favourite TV show is Arrow (hehehehehehe)

backchatting CAMPION

Will: Kayla clean your part of the cabin

Kayla: clean your soul you little bitch and maybe I’ll consider it

Will: WHO TAUGHT YOU HOW TO SWEAR?

she wants an industrial piercing (gosh me too)

would do anything for love/attention (again, me too)

bites her kitkats without breaking them

she cried once when she was watching Cars 2 and nobody has ever let her love it down

best archer of the bunch

dressed up as Heather Chandler for Halloween last year

this year it’s going to be Macnamera and she has somehow convinced Will and Austin to be Chandler and Duke

Bella is going to be Veronica

(Heather, Heather, Heather and a babe)

TOA Headcanon

Will gets his bossiness over healing from Apollo. Not immediately apparent at first, since in THO he’s too busy sulking over his situation to really bring it out, but it becomes apparent near the end of the series, next time he’s in a situation where a combat medic would be useful, while Will’s around. They both start treating wounded demigods who INSIST that they can still fight and that they don’t have time for this, and they both just go - No. No, you’re not, and I WILL tie you to this stretcher if I have to. And they’re finishing each other’s sentences while having identical obstinate expressions on their faces, and Kayla and Austin just go, Oh great, there are TWO of them now.

[buoyantsaturn]

me, when anyone tries to fight me on godly parent-related things: kayla knowles has two biological dads

Cabin 7 Headcanons

• They all have some kind of gold on their eyes, maybe a ring around the pupils or some golden flecks that resemble sun rays

• They are really sensitive people, they wear their hearts on their sleeves and are not afraid to show their emotions

• Before the titan war their cabin was the second most crowded in camp but now they are the first, during the summer the cabin hosts around 35 kids raging from the ages six to seventeen

• They have the biggest range of powers because of apollo being the god of almost everything

• They can look directly into the sun without hurting their eyes

• They have the second most intelligent campers, the first being the Athena kids

• They don't necessarily like to think a lot but they do like to hoard knowledge

• They know a lot of useless facts that they like to bring up at any given time

• Most of them are really scared of commitment, they don't fear relationships per say but they don't like them when they get too formal

• They can check all your vitals (temperature, blood pressure, breathing) by touching your hand

[aerobicide]

Will: I THOUGHT CANADIANS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE NICE??!

Kayla: AND I THOUGHT TEXANS WERE ALL COWBOYS WHO RODE THEIR HORSES TO SCHOOL, WE ALL HAD DISAPPOINTMENTS

yeah I’m in an Apollo kids mood so expect some stuff

[imgonnabeyourbubblegumwitch]

Headcanon

The Hermes cabin and the Apollo cabins are close and tend to team up against the other cabins. They have a friendly rivalry however and so new campers often assume the two cabins are constantly at war.
