Apollo - Blog Posts
I love Apollo and Meg’s platonic relationship. <3
After the trials of Apollo the Apollo kids get extra attention from their dad.
To the point other cabins get jealous.
They will do the most basic thing and Apollo will scream and cheer like they just won the Olympics.
Will caught a medicine bottle before it hit the ground? “THATS MY BOY! LOOK AT HOW ATHLETIC AND SMART HE IS! IM SO PROUD OF HIM”
Kayla fixes her bow? “SHE IS SO CREATIVE! I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO SEE HER HAPPY!”
Austin plays one single note? “IMAGINE BEING MUSICALLY GIFTED, A HANDSOME BOY, AND A DEMIGOD! THATS MY KID HE IS SO AMAZING! IF ANYONE DISAGREES YOU ARE WRONG!!”
Oh you think Nico is safe from this?
That’s Apollo’s future son in law and he will do less than the bare minimum and get praised for it.
Nico gets up? Not even at a good time it could be the middle of the day but he gets up? “LOOK AT HIM GO! HE’S GOING TO BE MY SON IN LAW SOME DAY! HE’S SO STRONG MY SON GOT SO LUCKY!”
Meg isn’t safe either.
Meg puts her shoes on? “GO BESTIE GO! SHE EVEN LOOKS LIKE AN ICON WHILE PUTTING HER SHOES ON! I WISH I WAS THAT AMAZING”
In conclusion Apollo loves his kids + Nico + Meg.
Reminds me of the time when I studied for a full week in honor of Athena and was jokingly like, "I should get a reward!"
The next day I got a doll I wanted for literal years and had dreams about.
A few days ago I was joking about deserving a “Mother’s day present” because I took care of toddlers age 2-4 years old during my internship at Daycare, that same day I ordered a new candle for my beloved.
Me (Today): *Came home from picking up his candle from the pick up point in my street* Okay let’s see.
As I open the box and unwrap the candle, my face turns deadpan as I look at the candle in my hand.
Me: Trying to bite back a smile and a giggle.
It’s wrapped in gift wrapping and has a ribbon and sticker on it that says “Best mum ever!”.
Apollo: Beaming, giving off that “You asked and I delivered” energy.
I turn away from Apollo’s altar slowly, trying to be as serious as possible and hiding my shy smile.
Me: Okay, I see. I get it now, You got jokes.
So eventually I cut out the part with the ribbon and sticker and placed it on his altar (｡>﹏<) ♡
Here's a thought: In tower of nero, when apollo tells nico about Jason's death, nico is holding meg's hand. He then flinches and quickly pulls his hand away, this being described as "as if he remembered his touch was poison" or something like that. Immediately afterwords, when he walks away, his feet leave a trail of dead grass, as a sign of his emotional turmoil. We know that he starts involuntarily killing things when he's upset, and we know he can kill people by touching them, so maybe he pulled his hand away from meg so rapidly because he was afraid he'd lose control of his deadly-touch powers as he got more upset.
Idk if that made any sense but there ya go
I’m in awe of the lyricism of the masters, but its always, the simplicity that feels closer to the heart....
Maybe poets embellish everything too much. But, they are dreamers, who just wish to find beauty in ruin, in chaos, in tragedy and in death.....and Icarus was a tale of eternal tragedy through and through.
But his tale is hardly a warning, it is simply a lesson, to never be afraid of flying too high.
Apollo: Hey Percyyy I need you on a queeeest! <3
Percy, tired of this shit and just trying to get to the same collage as his gf:
