Athenide AU

Created a fake goddess based on fem Percy Jackson

[localfandomenjoyer]

Consider: Apollo probably would've developed a crush on Arsinoe if Perseleia wasn't also in that fountain. So, in a universe where Perse definitively occupies the role of cool stepmother, I can see reborn Annabeth finding herself the centre of attention.

Poseidon: She rose from my fountain and therefore is mine!

Athena: In my city! Besides, you have enough children, this one would just get neglected or married off to some godling.

Hera: If you two are just going to bicker, perhaps the child should stay elsewhere.

Apollo: I think she'd do just fine on Olympus!

Hermes: Yeah, I ag- hey, wait a second! I saw her first!

Athena: Don't even think about it!

Ares and Aphrodite: *eating popcorn on the sidelines, thoroughly enjoying the show*

Zeus: Perhaps we could arrange some form of joint custody?

Poseidon: So my daughter can be paraded around Olympus for the eyes of lustful gods? No thank you.

Zeus: Oh please, like Atlantis has any shortage of that.

*meanwhile in the fountain*

Perse, hugging Arsinoe: You're going to be my best friend!

Arsinoe, who doesn't have her memories yet, wondering who this strange but familiar woman is: Yay?

[chaoticdumbassrogue]

In the Athenide twin au, it’d be so funny if Percy and Annabeth went as Perse & Arsinoë for Halloween. And if it’s before their memories are back and the gods haven’t quite figured things out yet? Even funnier.

I want to say they do this while house sitting for Hecate for the lols but if they’re around Olympus, that is the first and the last time they do that because of the panic attacks they caused

[bronywnsworld]

Percy: *opens mouth*

Annabeth: *punches her lovingly*

Percy: OWW! What was that for.

Annabeth: you were going to ruin the moment.

Percy: ….

Percy: fair enough

[localfandomenjoyer]

Apollo: My queen, I bring news of a theft most foul!

Perse: Enlighten me.

Apollo: My sacred cattle have pilfered... by this creature! *holds up baby Hermes* Look at it. Look at it! You can see the greed in its beady little eyes!

Hermes: *innocent baby noises*

Perse: *trying to stifle laughter*

I think now would be a great time for that

Tv!Percy praying to Sally instead of the gods has the same energy as musical!Percy singing an entire verse about how awesome his mom was while the other campers are asking him about his godly parent.

They both understood the assignment.

[sherasswords]

Percy calling Kronos grandpa 😭😭 and Sally being like 😐 no. My favourite son and mom duo fr

[sallyjacksonsson]

the way they knew smelly gabe would totally open a package that wasn’t his. this is like those reddit stories where they put laxatives in the food their roommates keep stealing

[mo-mode]

Young Percy saying “I would never do this to you” thinking his mom is abandoning him again

Percy saying “Hold fast, mom” with tears in his eyes and finally understanding what if felt like every time his mother had to do what was best for him even if it meant leaving him behind

[percabethownsmybutt]

percy: the path to inner peace starts with four words

percy: not my fucking problem

[argo-ii-funk]

heroes of olympus - the mark of athena

[fanonical]

sally: i named you perseus because your father was a greek god percy: my dad is poseidon percy: ...so you named me after zeus' kid? sally: thought it'd throw them off for a bit

[applecidersstuff]

Sally *on the iris massage*: Percy did you take your sister to camp again? We have discussed this before, it’s unsafe for her there and-

Percy: Mom, hold on, I don’t have Estelle, I left her with Paul

Paul *peeking into the room*: I had to go run an errand, but one of Percy’s friends came by and volunteered to watch Estelle until Sally was back. I thought you put her down for a nap

Sally *panicking*: Paul, none of Percy’s friends are in town! It’s the summer, all of them are at camp! Who did you give our daughter to?!

Coach Hedge *bursts into cabin 3*: Jackson! I lost my son, we’re scouting the camp, I need you to check in the lake

Percy:

Sally:

Paul:

***

Clarrise *across town*: Do you guys think I should’ve told your parents where we went?

6 y.o. Chuck and Estelle *Clarrise stole took them for ice cream*: *simultaneously shake their heads*

Paul uses one of those razor blade subscription services and, since it's cheap, sends Percy at New Rome University a spare pack every time he gets a delivery. Percy keeps a MUCH cleaner shave than Paul does, who kind of keeps it scruffy. Unfortunately, one time, there's a shipping error as Paul's package is lost in the mail, so nobody gets razors.

Percy doesn't consider it much initially, but as days go by without a shave, he starts to build up stubble - something incredibly uncommon for him. People turn their heads and tease him a bit until the stubble grows into a shadow, grows into a beard.

Suddenly, nobody teases Percy. They give him a wide berth, and on more than one occasion, a younger New Roman called him "Sir" reverently. Now, when Percy delivers some Classic Snark during a lecture or between classes, it's not met with snickers and eye-rolls. It feels scathing in a way it never had before. Now things that Percy pokes fun at are corrected, and people nod along to his comments as though they were suggestions - no, expectations.

Sure enough, people relax a bit when some new razor cartridges come in, and Percy shaves again, and things go back to normal. Percy isn't sure why people acted odd for a week or two there. Then Annabeth, who (tactfully) avoided kissing him for that duration, points out, "You look a lot like your dad."

“You are Poseidon’s son.”

“I am Sally Jackson’s son!”

YEAH YOU TELL EM PERCY FUCK A DEADBEAT DAD

Thinking of Athenide cabin (she does have a cabin at Camp Half Blood right?) Instead of Hermes, it's her cabin that welcomes unclaimed demigods. And now I think of all these unclaimed kids praying so hard to stay unclaimed so they can keep living in her cabin 😂 Luke being so desesperate to be claimed right after passing the gates of the camp and learning after he could have lived in the Athenide cabin 🤣

Luke, after locking himself inside the Athenide cabin: YOU CAN GET ME OUT OF HERE ALIVE!!!!

Dionysus: bitch that’s my fucking bedroom

[localfandomenjoyer]

Hephaestus deserves a happy childhood, so I'm having Perse catch him after he is thrown from Olympus as a baby then conduct some surprise adoption. No crippling, just a nice, loving home life, perhaps she even introduces him to the Cyclopes or forges of Atlantis? Imagine him turning out more like Leo because he doesn't have to face the bitterness of being rejected and uncared for.

Oh, and Perse also gets to be the grandma of Cabin 9. She gets really into the role and keeps tiny bronze machines all over her temples from several thousand years worth of mother's day presents from Hephaestus and his children. Leo will call her Abueleia (Abuela + Perseleia).
