tried to re-read HOO series again and I’m hit in the face at how awful and forced all the new ships are. I feel like if Rick wanted us to get invested in the characters as individuals, we could have had more focus on their journeys without cluttering them down with rapid and poorly thought out romance.
the reason percabeth remains so appreciated to this day is that despite a few OOC scenes or frustrations readers may have, we can all read how Percy and Annabeth are a partnership who love, tease, and respect each other-their values and flaws mesh well to each of their benefit, set steadily against a tumultuous time and their own growing pains. below are the major complaints I have with the other ships and how quite possibly none of them should have been made canon. Not to mention a majority of the series takes place over like 3-4 weeks. (SON-BOO)
Jason x Piper: foundation is built on a lie so Jason feels an immediate obligation to Piper (and we know how seriously he treats his duties) and Piper feels shackled to a guy-due to some kind of time invested/sunk cost fallacy and his good looks-that doesn’t love her the way she wants or needs; if Rick wanted this to happen, they could’ve created a stronger bond as Jason and Piper over the books, not maybeboyfriend!Jason and maybegirlfriend!Piper. Idk, any romance with them felt super forced.
Frank x Hazel: oh my god NO, they are babies, infants in fact! two incredibly young and isolated loner/rejected feeling children who hung out together for some sense of companionship and comfort should not automatically be paired off just because they are both kind, available, attractive, and with deep seated sense of shame in their own being. No. I would have accepted hints towards a future romance maybe once they developed a bit more, acknowledged and made progress on themselves etc. Side note: screw you for the Leo x Hazel x Frank juvénile love triangle. I had to skim/skip those parts.
Leo x Calypso: well, aside from the fact that this just plays into Leo’s issues about needing a girlfriend as a symbol of success and recognition of his own worth…I never got the sense that either of them even LIKED each other. Calypso is always annoyed with Leo and berates him and Leo thinks she’s pretty. She wants an escape that Zeus didn’t give her (ignoring Percy’s requirement) and Leo wants to not be seen as a 7th wheel. But okay, for argument’s sake, let’s say they “love each other”. How do we know that she loves him of her own accord and not just because of the curse that forces her to love whoever lands on her shore? How do we know that Leo isn’t just riding the high of a beautiful woman “wanting him” and calling it love? I mean, a generous estimate says they knew each other like a week/month…and they weren’t chatting and braiding each others hair during that period.
Tyson x Ella: but why though??? There is literally no narrative need to put a romance here. Nothing changes in their dynamic if they were just friends and if we were calling Tyson a BABY in TLO, then I don’t think he’s grown up enough since for a relationship. Stupid and forced.
***Nico and Reyna are both going through no-good, very bad years and should not have to worry about unrequited love on top of it.

Okay but Noah Kahan's 'She calls me back' is so Jason and Piper coded. (HOO and TOA spoilers ahead!!)
Because like, firstly the whole theme about unrequited love. Because Jason still loved her after the break up, he felt empty after it. And he died for her too.
And so much of Jason's character revolved around death and sacrifice. Most of his life (before HOO) he grew up thinking all he was there for was to die, almost like the goal of his life was to die like a hero, in combat.
And him (during HOO) getting a girlfriend, him finding close friends, it feels like around that time, there was more to living than just the glorified idea of dying as a hero.
'I do not exist to die'
Although most of HOO is about them being the seven from the prophecy, of being the ones that would stop Gaea and all that, it's also about them bonding. Becoming a good team. And for Jason, a lot of it is new: he didn't exactly have friends before (except maybe Reyna?). And he's falling in love too (and I will fight anyone who says it's fake, because even if those memories were planted into their minds by Hera- still doesn't change the fact that they ended up liking eachother. They started to create their own memories- that was the point of their arc, to find out what they feel for eachother on their own and separate it from the memories Hera created)
So he starts finding new purpose- separating himself from who he was forced to be as Preator. He has more to live for now.
'I do not exist to die, but live to die while saving you'
And it just hits so hard when this line comes up because like, the Roman's literally trained him that all his life was worth was in the cohorts- what he could give to camp Jupiter. It was never a two way relation, like the Greeks, like when percy got lost, they sent out search parties- Jason got none of that, even with all he did for camp Jupiter, because they couldn't waste resources on just one guy or whatever.
So when he dies for Piper, it's like- it's worth it to him. Like, to him, this is the healthiest relationship he has had, it gives him more to live for- and by extension more to die for.
And then, Kacey Musgraves verse resonates so perfectly with Piper's Character too, because in it's essence its about the 'unrequited love' theme. She doesn't love him anymore, at least not romantically.
and then the ending with, 'all the pain I should have saved, oh I was too afraid of living life in your footsteps,' feels like it fits so perfectly with the whole thing where Piper says, "That we'd be together forever like Percy and Annabeth?"
(I feel like this is more concerned with the Fandom culture of hating Jason and Piper together just cause it's threatening to be like Percabeth, the fan fave. Rick Riordan eventually gives the audience what they want. But if you ignore Fandom culture and all of that, I think the love they shared held so much value. They had such a unique start, different problems: it was so interesting to read about how they navigate their problems. It's just the constant comparison to Percabeth: both in the book with the characters; and out of the book with Fandom culture. They were too afraid of being confined to the thought of being like Percabeth, that what they did build up was never given value. -but that's a discussion for another time-)
Anyway, I wanna hug Jason so bad rn, I can’t read this anymore and I feel like I can’t listen to this fantastic song anymore cause all I think of is Jason and how he deserved the world but got literally nothing.
I wanna write an essay about him :( and hug him.

Percy Jackson Unpopular Opinion
Percy Jackson Must Die.
**Note Percy is my favorite character so this isn’t hate on him
Reasons directly related to percy
Percy has never been anything more in life then a demigod 
We first meet Percy Jackson when he’s twelve, and honestly doesn’t have much going for him (what twelve year old does?). He’s a delinquent, kicked out of six schools by the end of sixth grade, and has internalized ideas fed to him about how he’s doomed to fail. He doesn’t have anyone who is important to him beyond Grover, and Sally, and from what we see very little drive to succeed. There’s no amazing talent, or genius intellect waiting out there for him, and to anyone beyond Chiron, Grover, and Sally he’s a basket case with no future, no potential, and no drive. Even once he discovers he’s a demigod his ability to function in the mortal world is minimal leaving him very little potential there.
Beyond the seeming lack of potential, he doesn’t have any real goals at any point in his life. Before realizing he’s a demigod, he lacks any motivation to be good at something, partially due being told he would amount to nothing. 
Then his mom “dies” and it's all about saving her, after that he’s the prophecy child, doomed to die at 16, after making a decision to change the course of history. By the time the war actually rolls around he’s simply accepted his death and has no goals beyond protecting his friends, and stopping Kronos.
Then he lives. Great time to make some life goals! Nope. New war. 
He’s never had goals within the mortal world, fighting for his/his friends lives has always provided any and all drive for him. Other characters reach beyond, Annabeth has always wanted to be an architect, Leo wants to be an engineer, Piper fights for all peoples rights. They all have goals that are 100% applicable to the mortal world, something beyond being a demigod. Percy lacks that.
Percy’s character will be ruined if he lives past twenty
We all know that once a demigod reaches adulthood they no longer attract monsters in the same way. For many of the demigod characters we meet this will be a relief, no more fighting for their lives or godly interferences, for Percy, he will have lost the one thing that allowed him to feel like he was meant for more. If Percy lives on he will just be that old character that shows up every few books to reject a quest, give some advice to the next big three kid, and then talk about “the good old days” as all his friends move on with their lives and his legacy fades away. 
Percy’s death could be integral to his character, and showcase some of his most important traits
Percy would most likely die saving someone, representing his loyalty (one of his core traits) and allowing him to die the hero. Beyond showcasing his loyalty, it could also show his character development, we all know he’d make it to Elysium, what about rebirth? This would show Percy’s understanding that there is more to be done, and while he’s done all he can as Percy Jackson he’s not ready to give up on the mortal world yet. It shows his unwillingness to sit idly by when there’s more to be done, but allow a newfound understanding that there's only so much one mortal could do in a lifetime.  
Allows Percy to stay relevant
The final reason is simply that the name Percy Jackson is losing relevance in the riordanverse as new younger characters like Nico, Hazel, Sadie, Carter, and Meg or characters without an expiry date like Alex and Magnus start taking over major quests. Percy is losing page time and the page time he does get is slowly slipping from the headstrong heroic character, to a character who settles (something percy is blatantly bad at). Percy’s death would affect other characters and could even be a cautionary tale.
However Percy’s death wouldn’t only be for the sake of his own character, it would also wrap up/jumpstart other characters' stories. 
Jason's death makes way for a important parallel
Percy and Jason were each other's mirrors. The Perfect Roman Hero, and The Perfect Greek Hero. Natural born fighters destined for greatness and to bring a new era of peace. They succeeded and Jason died as he wasn't needed anymore. Percy and Jason both dying could be the end of that era. Beyond that Jason would be waiting in Elysium for Piper forever, I don’t think Percy would do that for Annabeth, not when there's always more he can do to help others. I firmly believe he would go for rebirth.
Allows Annabeth, to have a new beginning 
Annabeth's character specifically would benefit from this. I do see her traveling down to the underworld, walking up to Hades and demanding Percy’s life back, andI see  one of two things happening. 
Parallel to the classic Greek tragedy of Orpheus and Eurydice. Hades agrees on the condition Percy follows Annabeth and she doesn’t look back. However like Orpheus, Annabeth looks back and in the moment they meet eyes Percy realizes that there is more he can do, and that Annabeth shouldn’t be waiting until her own death for someone, so when she asks “See you in elysium?”, he simply shakes his head. 
Or..
Percy arrives in Elysium, and is greeted by Jason, who is waiting for Piper, and in that moment Percy has the same realization that he can’t just wait and be idle forever and goes for rebirth, when Annabeth arrives in the underworld she confronts hades who tells her “Even if i could give him back to you, he’s gone decided on rebirth”
From there Annabeth would realize that she and Percy wanted two do different things, and that he would never settle the way she had always seen herself settling. This also allows her to grow as a person and figure out who she is alone, as she grieves her relationship and partially a former part of her own personality. 
Finally, it gives some meaning to the fatal flaw plot point. We would see how Percy’s loyalty (not only to annabeth, however to others and too cause as flaw isn’t “loyalty to annabeth”) got him killed,  and how even the greatest heroes’ fall can victim to their fatal flaw.

Pjo characters x the wonders of road trips.
Saw a TikTok on this and it was so wholesome, I just had to make my own little hcs. Cast means the prophecy 7 + Nico+ Will+ Reyna +every other pjo character I can think of.
1. The night before the road trip >> best believe Percy and Leo ain't getting enough sleep cuz of the hype. (Yes they'll be traveling at the crack of dawn)
2. Jason will be the first one awake and out of the house (already in the driver's seat) waiting for everyone else, yes he's blasting some old timey music while waiting.
3. Piper being the last one awake (despite sleeping beside Jason-who literally is a human alarm clock)
4. Piper literally just getting in the car (called shotgun) still in her pjs.
5. Frank would help fit/carry into the medium sized camper van they rented.
6. IF THEY RUN OUT OF SPACE TO SIT FRANK CAN SHAPE SHIFT INTO A HAMSTER OR SMTH AND STAY BY HAZEL.
7. Percy "YOU'RE NOT PLAYING THE PLAYLIST I MADE FOR THIS ROAD TRIP" Jackson.
8. Leo " U BETTER PLAY PERCY'S PLAYLIST FOR THIS ROAD TRIP" Valdez.
You can tell that I love PercyLeo bromance.
9. Nico having to literally drag Will out of bed and into the van (yes they're both in their pjs too.)
10. Reyna and Annabeth discussing the route to their destination and planning the stops along the way. They have maps layed out on the floor with Leo's random mech stuff acting as markers of the landmarks they'll visit.
11. One of the rare moments where Annabeths hair is in a half moon, and Percy's living for it.
12. Piper transfers to sit with Will to talk about Taylor swifts folklore album (yes the lore of it, and there is a notebook of their theories involved) Nico acts like he doesn't care but he's secretly invested.
13. Annabeth takes up shotgun (arm wrestling match decided who gets to, and she won against Percy)
14. Annabeth and Jason just chatting about anything and everything in the front while Percy throws random questions around.
15. Jason definitely is the type to hang his arm out while he's driving.
16. Annabeth is reading a book to Percy aloud (they're both cuddling of course) and eventually everyone just quiets around to listen to her voice.
17. Nico and Frank playing mythomagic somewhere along the way.
18. Piper painting Hazels nails to a different color every few hours.
19. Reyna brought knitting needles, she teaches Leo and Hazel. Hazel- who picks it up quickly. Leo- who picks it up even faster and is now knitting everyone a sweater.
20. Will and Nico falling asleep (Nico on top of Will) and Jason throwing a blanket on top of them.
21. Jason finally re-signs his driver seat to Reyna.
22. Piper, Jason and Percy playing eye spy.
23. Will and Nico playing 'punch buggy' but instead of a punch it's Will kissing Nico on the cheek everytime they see a blue car (upon Percy's request).
24. When they stop at a gas station, Leo bought all the snack he could find (Nico's credit card was used)
25. Backstreet boys comes playing and Percy, Leo, Will are all jamming out.
26. Taylor Swift starts playing and all of them are screaming the words out.
27. Hazel and Nico pointing at different clouds and telling which animal they look like.
28. When Will finally gets to ride in shotgun, Reyna is on the driver's seat. It's slightly tense, but they both instantly warm up to each other (they are talking about each other's camps)
25. Annabeth and Leo taking pictures of any beautiful building they see along the way. Then discussing it's design.
26. Percy and Will will definitely vibe the entire ride, idk how. They just will. (So many Wills in one sentence.)
27. When Percy finally gets to ride in the driver's seat, Annabeth (who's holding his hand) is beside him fast asleep same with everyone else in the van; Leo and Frank slouching against each other, Hazel falling asleep on Nico's shoulder while Will takes the other shoulder, Piper's head on Jason's lap while her legs are propped up on Reyna's. It's sunset and everything is just so tender. Then Percy's crying eueue.

I just went into the tags to figure out what the Jason x Piper ship name and am for the first time realising that people don't like this ship?
Anyway during my reread this part stuck with me the most
Tumblr media
That's exactly how you write a teenage boy falling in love.
And tbh, even if Jasper or Jasiper or whatever their ship name is isn't endgame, it's important to understand that during the entirety of TLH, both Jason and Piper learned a lot about trusting strangers with their lives together which is such an intimate form of showing faith in someone. It is obvious from Jason's narration, that even without his memories, he knows he will never look at the feeling and emotion of love the same way again after having met Piper.
And what's this about Piper "manipulating" Jason, GIRLIE LITERALLY BROUGHT HIM BACK TO LIFE WITH HER POWER!
Piper haters and antis really need to take a step back cuz yall dumb as hell.

REPOSTING 2023
Jason POV: You’re on a double date instead of having one girlfriend, why not have two.
I don’t just ship Jasico, I also ship Jason with Reyna and Piper. I’m also not a fan of the hands… I often hate the way I draw hands…
