I would like to join please.
How would people feel if I made a community dedicated to talking about (making headcanons, sharing fics, fanart etc) of Apollo's kids and legacies?
Like, a place to just yap about Lee, Michael, Will, Kayla, Austin, Jerry, Yan, Gracie, Hal, Octavian (if one wishes to yap about him, I rarely do, but I digress), and Georgina (or hcs as to whether we think Georgie is related to Apollo), that one Apollo kid from the ds movie game I never played but have seen in fics, as well as everyone's child of Apollo OCs!
If no one wants to join, I'll just continue to yap on my own here, but I'll make it if others want to join in my ramblings.

i’m getting through art reqs at the speed of molasses but i’m getting there.

The fact that kids nowadays want ao3 to be censored— guys. Guys. Where is your sense of adventure? When I was 12, and homeschooled, and had unlimited internet access on my second hand laptop, all I felt upon discovering ao3 was unmitigated joy. A whole platform where people can be fucking weird and post toe-curling novel-length diatribes about ANYTHING. How beautiful is that?
And then you, the reader, can just jump in and post your own weird shit? And people might comment just to say “nice job!” Or “where the fuck is the next chapter” on your 20k coffee shop FNAF AU? Bro. Them’s the little things that make the internet worth anything.
Ao3 is so beautiful. I love scrolling past indescribably disturbing descriptions. I love knowing they have a place to be posted. I love knowing that, should I feel the urge to indulge, I can do so with no repercussions.
Mi familia. Mis amigos. Por favor. Take a step back and be grateful that not every facet of creativity has been locked behind an algorithm.
I made a Cinderella Boy S2 bingo ✨
This is the 1st time I make a bingo 👍not sure if it's right but oh well

Apollo Cabin Camper headcanons
Lee was an avid writer, and was planning to go for a Creative Writing before he, you know, kicked the bucket. Michael and Will ended up posthumously publishing his diary as a fiction story (because monsters and all) so that he could have his dream of being a published author. Nico brought Lee a copy in the Underworld.
Michael would only ever call his younger siblings his "little siblings" despite the fact that most of them passed him in height at like 9 or 10.
Will has Michael and Lee's names tattooed on his wrist in their handwriting, as well as a quote from one of Lee's poems on his forearm.
Kayla's known she was a demigod since she was really young, since her father had to explain why she has no mother. Darren could see through the mist, and would just shoot the monsters that came because of Kayla's stronger sent.
Kayla was brought to camp by Hedge when he was in Toronto in TLO (is this a common hc? I feel like it should be)
Austin could play any instrument, except the kazoo. For some reason, he sucked at playing the kazoo.
Jerry's accent was so strong his first summer at camp no one could understand him except for the other internationals.
Yan would hide in the armory with their book so that they didn't have to do sword-fighting or archery practice
Gracie would make rainbow loom bracelets for literally everyone. Even though she came to camp after the Battle of Manhattan and the Battle of the Labrynth, she still made bracelets for her deceased siblings based on Will, Kayla, and Austin's description of them.
Will was protective of the chariot in TLH not because he cared about it, but because Michael cared about it
Lee was born in Connecticut, but lived practically his whole life in NYC, and Michael was from Maine.
The cabin has a world map with push pins indicating where everyone is from. Every camper has also signed the wall around it on the day they were claimed, so there's well over a thousand names by the time PJO takes place.
Cabin 7 has a music room in it's basement, that has every single instrument you can imagine. (Austin is banned from playing the kazoo of course)
The only way the cabin can be cleaned is if It's A Hard Knock Life (Broadway version) (and the reprise as well) are playing. The youngest kid sings at Molly, and they play rock paper scissor to figure out who jumps in the laundry basket like Annie (one time Michael accidently fell asleep and was brought to the laundry room by the harpies. He did not let Lee hear the end of it) (The same thing almost happened to Gracie, but Will found her before the harpies could)
It's tradition that the last day of camp the younger campers write a song for their counselor and play it before bed. There's a binder of all the lyrics of every song dated back to the 1940s on the shelf, when the tradition was started
I'm not even sorry about how many there are, I'm just a tad bit obsessed with Cabin 7 (as indicative of my ao3 fics dedicated to them all)
(Octavian's a legacy and I'm only 150 pages into my reread of Son of Neptune, I can't remember if there are any canon Apollo kids barring Octavian's ancestors.)
I have a theory about Will's tattoo
It's a sun and so I was thinking that maybe for every sibling he lost in the war is marked as a ray on the sun. so it's like a memorial and it's also on his pectoral close to his heart so he wants his sibling to be with him forever
I also think that he has a couple tattoo with Nico and a friendship tattoo with Lou Ellen and Cecil
random riordanverse teeth headcanons for funsies:
actually starting out with not a hc - Percy's teeth aren't straight! He mentions in Sea of Monsters it as one of his insecurities ("[...] or the fact that my two front teeth weren’t perfectly even [...]") I just think that's fun and cute for him
Nico, Hazel, and Percy can all regenerate their teeth. Nico and Hazel for Hades/Pluto kid reasons and Percy for shark reasons. Percy's just regrow normally but Nico and Hazel have to willfully use their powers to grow it back. They can grow other people's teeth back too if they want to though.
Nico has fangs. Technically not "real" fangs but his canine teeth are just unusually sharp to the point where they look like little fangs. Hazel and Bianca perhaps can also have fangs as a treat :3 Hades kids with fangs...
Jason has fake teeth! Like three or so. Unfortunately humans are not built for biting random stuff super hard all the time and he sacrificed a couple teeth because of it.
(If he feels like it he can ask Nico or Hazel to grow his teeth back for him. It probably doesn't last long. Maybe one day he can get fancy fake teeth.)
Lacy has braces. Piper perhaps also had braces when she was younger and probably hated them.
Walt getting fangs when Anubis is present could be very fun.
Alex with fangs is also fun <3
Niche one but i like to theme both Lacy and Ida around rabbits, so both of them having prominent front teeth would be very cute.
Demeter kids with snake fangs! Snakes are sacred to Demeter!
Snakes are also sacred to Apollo, as are wolves/dogs. Dogs are also sacred to Hecate. Many options for funky teeth.
Will was born without wisdom teeth, cause that's a thing that can happen. He's just never gonna grow 'em and ergo never need them removed.
okay thats all i've got ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is a safe place no bullying! I can give recommendations if you want some webtoons, books, and songs
