the suffering never ends
headcanon that percy majors in social services during his attending new rome university with annabeth. and later graduates with a master's degree alongside his fiancee. and goes on to create a CPS division for demigods across the country. and merges his business with the chase's to build efficient structures for safe housing demigods throughout the country. and uses his status on olympus to withdraw funding for resources like safe passage for satyrs alike. and helps pave the way for future generations to come.

you know what i think would be fucking hilarious? if percy was fighting a monster and instead of using his sword or some other demigod powers or magic he just straight up clocks it in the face. like he just starts throwing hands. he’s a new yorker. he got kicked out of multiple boarding schools. like fuck all the proper demigod ways of fighting, just BAM! have an unexpected knuckle to the face bitch
Don’t look for whatever just touched your foot. Don’t dive down to find it. That’s the chance it’s waiting for.
Never turn your back to the tide.
Don’t swim on the new moon. The moon’s light is the only thing keeping you safe.
Ignore the sounds of the birds. They will get louder as you ignore them, but if you go to them, they expect something in return.
Only look down to your feet, and never deeper than you need to. The deep shadows are not yours to worry about.
The ocean listens to you, too. She knows things.
Do not remove shells or rocks you find. They carry souls with them, and they will return to the ocean one way or another.
Leave no trace of yourself at the beach. She covers your footprints for a reason.
Do not leave abandoned sand castles. They were not built by children. The animals passing between worlds will not forgive you for the obstructions in their path.
Never move a rock bigger than your hand. Gently shift, but always place exactly as you found it. The creatures underneath know where they belong, and they can find where you belong, too.

something about fate taking the boy who has spent most of his life battling the lurking feeling that the people closest to him want to get rid of him, and giving him the most loyal and reassuring best friend who always tells him "I'll be here when you get back" giving him assurance that he's not going anywhere, especially not going anywhere from him.
something about fate making soulmates out of a girl who could only depend on herself from a very young age, who also had the responsibility of her brothers' and sisters' safety to think about, and a boy who takes care of her even at the risk of his own life, with the reassurance, that no one else has ever thought to offer "it's okay".
something about fate forcing together a boy who has been labelled a troubled kid, stupid, a failure, screw-up and a reject by almost every other person in his life, and a girl who never lets him doubt himself, his mind or his abilities, who constantly tells him "you can do this" with no misgivings about his greatness even when he doesn't see it.
something about fate connecting the souls of the boy who has never felt good enough, who has internalized guilt from an outcome he had little control over and carries it with him everywhere he goes, giving him feelings of worthlessness, and a boy who has never believed that faults or mistakes make you any less worthy of love or friendship, who has never hesitated to assure him that "it's okay, we're okay".
something about fate making lifelong ride-or-dies out of a girl who has been abandoned by everyone who should have protected her and a boy who always encourages her to go out into the world and make a difference with the constant reassurance "I'll be here when you get back".
something about fate linking a boy who always assumes that if something has gone wrong, it's his fault, who has zero confidence in himself not to ruin everything but still shoulders the weight of responsibility, and a girl who doesn't waver in her confidence in him, even when she's seen him fail and make mistakes she always tells him "you can do this" she knows he just needs a little faith.
The heartbreak heard around the world lol
