Thinking About Percy’s Time At CJ And CHB In My AU And Ever Since I Learned This Fact I Can’t Stop

i want to coin a phrase that's the opposite of writer's block. call it the muse's fire hydrant. thirty thousand story ideas are being beamed directly into your brain and if you don't write them all at once you will die.

At first I wasn't going to involve any Mycenaean or Minoan related things in my kinda sorta superhero demigod au but I'm actually reconsidering.

I'm currently writing this scene were Percy ends up going on a mission but he sort of loses his shit after injecting something and I think I want the trigger to be because he has such origins.

So I started doing a little research and found out that there was (supposedly? idk how true it is) was a Minoan god known as Potidas who was essentially ruled over everything and like natural things, so he ruled over the earth, the sky, storms, etc.

And so I also found out that Poseidon (atleast maybe his name?) actually came from this god.

And of course you may or may not know about Mycenaean Poseidon who was a chthonic deity.

So I plan on having Percy be of such descent probably.

But I don't want to do this with just Percy. I want to do this with other demigods too, especially ones like Zeus who was associated with a Minoan God known as Velchanos and was associated with like vegetation but I don't know if I should do this with preexisting characters or make some new ones up to do it.

So I decided im just gonna, make a poll lol and the first one is gonna be for Zeus's kids. Jason isn't going to be on this list because he's Jupiter's kid and I want to have the distinction in this be pretty clear.

Working on Percy’s suit. I don’t think I’ll be making a suit for pre HoO Percy just because he’s only gonna be using it for like two parts.

I wanted to incorporate celestial bronze and almost incorporated Greco-Armor too but I decided against it, atleast for Percy’s design.

He does have a celestial bronze sort of shoulder set though.

I dunno I’m really excited to write the HoO section (drawing the costumes is gonna be my least favorite part) because I do want to draw some art for this series one day.

Idk I’m just so excited to write Percy, Annabeth, and Jason’s perspective during the HoO mainly TLO-MOA, especially because a lot of the plot is going to be different, SoN and HoH are the only two plots that are going to be relatively the same.

Can’t wait to share this with you guys.

Godswap AU and it’s time period

I was thinking and I was thinking of what time period I wanted my godswap AU to be in and I’ve been thinking about maybe the ancient or medieval times.

I was really inspired by epic the musical in a way so I want to take some things from that.

I’m leaning towards more of a medieval time period.

I just really want to do a historical AU and I don’t want to do them separately so… what do yall think?

Small post cuz I’m in class rn.

Thinking lol

And like, my Percy Jackson AU has actually evolved a lot with my concepts of it from the first post and I’m sort of thinking. What if I made it sort of like the Absolute DC thing?

Like most of the characters would be the same as how I’ve been writing them but it just seems like a fun idea.

For like the type of universe it would be? I’m not sure. Like the basics of the universe would be the same, with CHB and CJ but I want to find a way to make society different. (Still playing around with the Mist Idea HEAVILY). Also thinking about toying with messing with new myths and even taking some inspiration from DC (maybe? Idk)

Mostly I’ve been thinking about this cuz I want to write a high school au and the sorta Roman!percy au and looking for a way to combine them both lol.

But yeah. Thats it pretty much. Now as for a name for this AU which has changed a billion times? I have no idea lol. Any suggestions would be appreciated? At this point I have no idea what I’m doing ngl. Just a tired teen trying to write an AU but being wayyy too indecisive along the way.

As a result of my latest dc obsession I’m gonna be writing a Robin!Percy AU and nobody’s gonna stop me (that’s it, that’s the post)

My brain can’t stop thinking of AUs lol (Pt. 1)

An AU where Luke just has a feral group of Demigod kids when he’s found by Grover.

Thalia, Jason, Leo, and Annabeth are just chilling with Luke.

Luke being lets just say extremely most hesitant to join Kronos because he still has three insane kids to take care of.

But ultimately he does betray camp and it’s probably right around S.o.M when they find out it was Luke who poisoned Thalia’s tree.

Luke possibly trying to recruit them + Percy who has unofficially joined Luke’s band of kids (Jason joining??)

The titans curse with both Luke and Percy trying to get their hands on the Di Angelo kids (both of them getting one in the end? Luke getting Bianca and Percy getting Nico)

Bianca like, not dying lol.

Battle of the Labyrinth, Annabeth finally getting a quest, chasing a mysterious demigod through the labyrinth and in the end, the explosion of Mt. Helens, the demigod army invading camp, Jason becoming the host for Kronos, possibly trying to revive some other titans in the same way as well with Luke and Bianca preparing to become hosts for other titans. Bianca not feeling right about joining Luke anymore and leaving after seeing her brother nearly killed by Kronos and his army.

The Last Olympian with Percy having to fight Jason, one of his first friends at camp, a reminder of innocence and how easily Percy could’ve been Jason after his mother died.

Leo finally stepping up from the sidelines with newfound courage to fight Kronos, especially after the death of Beckendorf.

Luke and Annabeth finally coming face to face properly. Annabeth facing the Titan that’s inhabiting Luke’s body, and Luke’s death (which I imagine be very similar to canon especially because he’s not Kronos host).

Bianca and Ethan coming face to face (who probably have a very interesting history). Ethan’s revenge and Bianca just wanting to save her brother.

Having a way more deadly and bloody battle of manhattan than in canon.

The death(??) of Jason and the getting together of Percy and Annabeth after the final battle finally allowed them to push through their final obstacle in the way: themselves and their grief.

The Lost Hero when Percy goes missing after all they’ve been through and Annabeth doesn’t have anybody left except Leo (and Nico to an extent). When these mysterious demigods shows up and nobody knows why.

The Son of Neptune when Percy has been wandering for months only remembering a set of blonde hair. When he gets issued on a quest with nothing except two random demigods and his instinct.

Mark of Athena when the seven has finally formed (thinking Nico, Frank, Percy, Annabeth, Leo, and two other demigods). When wisdoms daughter finally has a prophecy on her shoulders when she walks to her death.

House of Hades when Percy falls alone because he doesn’t want Annabeth to die down there in the horrors of Tartarus because enough people have died already.

Blood of Olympus when Percy deals with the aftermath of his journey, when Gaea’s secret weapons: Hazel and Piper are finally revealed, when Gaea is hoping to get the true seventh wheel, the strongest demigod of the era on her side. When Percy takes on the prophecy himself because the Battle of Manhattan can’t happen again (he still has nightmares about everyone who died).

lol I dunno just a thought, those two other characters would probably be ocs because

1. Hazel probably would never be found by Nico because of when Bianca dies and how old Nico would be and how he understands.

2. Piper doesn’t have a reason to be loyal to the demigod world if/when she’s found. There’s no Leo or Jason for her. She’s alone and as far as she’s concerned she’s always been alone. Why not join Gaea and bring out the system that had a part in her staying alone.

As for the plot of HoO itself I wanna change it a little cuz ngl it’s kind of basic lol. One of the major problems is that Gaea doesn’t have a reason for her actions that really makes you think like Luke’s did imo. Could have her embrace the “mother” part of Mother Earth lol.

Maybe she’s mad because the children of the earth, her children have been disrespected and abused for too long, pawns of the gods, maybe on this timeline when Kronos tried to recruit her (which I think he did?? Not sure) she wasn’t able to reform fast enough and her actions are driven by the guilt of the grieving mother who wasn’t able to protect her children in time idk just SOMETHING to make her not one dimensional and boring lol.

I probably wouldn’t write this but it would be cool if someone did.

Thinking about Sally and Percy in my AU (spoiler alert for something I haven’t written yet, but it has to do with Sally and I may or may not have mentioned this on a post prior to this)

Because subconsciously or not Percy sort of equates Sally as a God, because Sally was a source of hope throughout all the suffering he went through as a child.

And then stuff hits the fan and she just, dies. She’s gone. The Minotaur ran his claws through her and he never saw her again and his salvation is gone.

And from there, things don’t really get better for him, because after the incident tm with Jason, he doesn’t feel like he belongs. (Plus all the gang related activities he’s apart of inbetween pre CJ and right before CHB)

And then he goes to CHB and things are going decently, then his first quest he gets two people killed. But he stays, because he has friends, he has people to find, and eventually he finds friends worth staying for and his life is getting better then BoTL and Titan War happen and he basically loses everyone, all of his friends (and self sabotages and self isolates from anyone who could help him) and then gets hooked on drugs because now it’s back to the real world for him, he has to go to school because it’s the last, plus it’s CHB. He has to get a job because how else is he going to live somewhere with lights and a place to sleep? He joins the shittiest team at CHB because he has to constantly keep his body in shape somehow (he’s too paranoid not too).

And eventually (kinda a spoiler alert but i desperately wanted to yap about this) after all that, plus everything post kidnapping, she’s alive? That Hades was just holding her for all those years, that she’s been trapped? That she wasn’t really dead? That the Gods were so cruel to him they kept his mother away from him when he was at his lowest because saving the world was not enough for them?

And so she’s back, but neither of them really know how to act. Percy desperately craves those warm arms to protect him, but he doesn’t know how to be protected without trying to claw on the cage that’s trying to protect him (he can’t tell if someone’s trying to protect him or trying to trap him anymore).

Sally is just as awkward, she’s missed so much of his life, her little boy has grown weary and tired and this entire time she couldn’t help him.

Sally being hesitant to give him love, not because she doesn’t love him but because it isn’t as easy as it was when he was younger, she doesn’t know him anymore. Doesn’t know if he still eats blue food, or likes her hugs.

Percy desperately wanting love but being too afraid to ask for it, too hesitant to receive it, to even ask.

Sally trying to be a parent but due to circumstances out of her control, she’s years too late to do anything.

And maybe one day they get into an argument. Sally trying to be a parent and Percy picking a fight with her, nearly yelling at her before just, breaking down. He tells her how hard it was without her, how desperately he wanted her.

So they start from there, atleast once a week Percy tells him something from his life, no matter how big or how small and they learn each other. They are both tired and weary, but not too tired nor too weary to love each other.

Fandom: God there’s like NO content anymore. I wish we could get more art and fanfics :(((

Someone: Hey, I can’t draw anything digitally, because I can’t afford a tablet, but here’s a pen on paper drawing that I spent a lot of time and hard work on. Also, I took a shot at my first fanfic and I’d really like some feedback or at least some kudos if you enjoyed it :)

Fandom: Oh... yeah sorry no... not you. We actually meant writers that are already well known and popular to produce MORE content... I mean, if a popular blog shares your work then maybe. And we don’t really like pen to paper art. We just don’t think it’s professional or even looks good :/

Godswap AU, Luke.

I was thinking and I really wanted Luke to be the son of a minor god and so I decided to make him the son of Aristaeus. Luke actually has quite a few powers along with his swordsmanship. He can talk to sheeps, grow plants naturally but is more proficient in medical plants, and he can control wind (stronger in the summer) but not as Zeus or wind spirit kids can but still pretty good at it.

I think I wanted to make him the child of a minor god to further push the point of minor god kids being neglected, especially in this setting where a lot of poor people were different types of slaves. He was a commoner until he was taken to camp half blood where then he was taken on quests. On one dangerous quest he was the only one who came back alive (and where he gained his scar). He ended up being ridiculed and pitied by some of the other older campers and they began saying how they shouldn’t have chosen “lower minor god scum” to lead a mission.

So yeah children of minor gods weren’t all that respected in CHB (if you by any chance get claimed that is) and unclaimed campers were pretty much in the same boat.

After his failed quest, he began hearing Kronos talking to him and eventually fell in his clutches.

(Just thought of this but he still has his history with Thalia and Annabeth, his history with Percy is going to be more extensive though and I do want to explore that.)

After Percy follows the prophecy, gets attacked, and taken to CHB he meets Luke and they grow attached to each other until Percy finally goes on his quest. Sometime after Percy’s quest succeeds he puts his action into place and try’s to recruit (and then kill) Percy.

Luke I feel like is actually going to be the most similar but different character at the same time besides Percy in terms of his character and how I want it to progress so I’m really excited for when I start writing it.
