Just a thought: what if Hermes and Arsinoe had a one night stand that resulted in Pan?
Pan who died when his mother did
Hermes who lost both his son and beloved
and then you have Grover, who finds not only children of the Big Three, but he also finds the Athenide Twins, he finds Pan
Not the #Pan tag being the wrong but right tag 💀💀💀
For the Athenide Twins AU: I think having Poseidon as a father, with the all-encompassing, unconditional parental love this god is known for, would shake Annabeth to the core.
Okay but the dynamic between the Twins would be so interesting though
Annabeth would be all "the fuck you looking at?!" when it comes to gods and their wondering awooga eyes because, and bless her, Percy is so oblivious when it comes to romantic interests like half the camp was falling head over heals to impress her and the other half had a bi/lesbian awakening and Percy didn't notice but when it comes to Athena? Poseidon? Percy would be the main speaker, the shield for Annabeth, the rip rap to protect the cove. For Percy, Annabeth is the scary dog privilege around all the gods but their parents.
Percy, would be her usual self but with her loyalty and protectiveness all focused on Annabeth. Oh some god is trying to flirt with Annabeth? yeah, she's going to stab him. No worries. But if they're around Athena and Poseidon?
Annabeth has had no positive parental figures outside of Sally Jackson and Chiron (Paul gets an honorary mention) and has no idea how to navigate the parental minefield that she is in. Percy knows how to navigate messy family drama (thanks smelly gabe) and so will always throw herself in front of Annabeth to shield her from anything remotely similar to gabe or the Chase's
Poseidon canonically loves his kids. He ruined Odysseus' life over one of his sons injury. If you give him the Twins, if you tell him Arsinoe and Perse are his, and that they are terrified of him, that they are expecting him to treat them like Zeus treats his children? And that his daughters prepared and decided who among them was to protect the other? His heart will shatter.
Poseidon would gift Arsinoe literally everything until he finds out she likes architecture and then he will make her the official architect and literally do anything to make her smile as brightly as she did when she saw Atlantis for the first time.
Amphitrite would be soooo happy to have double the seal pups to spoil.
Triton would be upset at the Pallas look alike but then he sees his younger sisters spar and he's determined to not let either of them fall to a spear.
Kym, Rhodes, and Ben already outnumbered their father and Triton, but now they have two more sisters?
Athena would have no idea what to do. She faintly remembers her mother, other mothers that she could look up too have either really bad relationships with their daughters, or they were kidnapped from them, or just don't seem like the type of relationship Athena wants to have with her girls. She wants to know why Perse is so protective over Arsinoe around her. She wants to know why Arsinoe looks at Poseidon like she's about to cry from happiness every time he asks her if she want's to design a temple
all in all, lots of angst potential
I love this idea (like genu adore it) and had a thought when I saw "...but now they have two more sisters?" and what would it be like if Annabeth was male instead?
Imagine Andirius Athenides (In a world where Annabeth was born originally male, his name was Andrew. Teasingly, Percy used to call him Andy, it then became Andirius when in the past) taking an oath against sex because he doesn't care about sex. (Similar to his mother.)
So similar to Apollo and Artemis, this makes them bond quickly.
A world where they can.
Andirius Athenides, being guided by his sister around their parents because he doesn't know how to react.
I don't know if you've answered this already, but does Roman Peres have a different mother? Because I remember in Mark of Athena, all the romans were really confused on how Annabeth could be the daughter of a virgin goddess.
They probably pretend she doesn’t have parents at all 😅
Was she born from a spring and an olive tree? Yeah.
Is she related to crafting (cuisine) and the sea? Yup.
Are her parents Neptune and Minerva? Omg nope!!! Where did you get his freak idea from? 🙄🙄🙄
Minerva and Neptune: DIE
Holy fuck, this adds even more drama... Athen now has even more of a reason to hate the romans
Athena: THEY TOOK MY DAUGHTER, MY BABY FROM ME!
@anotheroceanid You said you wanted to post it (Perse's lore) somewhere. Well, I have a good idea about where you could. It's called Fanlore, and I think it's pretty neat. It's got a very similar vibe to Wikipedia. I think you should at least look into it if you wanna.
I know fanlore, I just don’t know if it’s used in this context 😅 because, technically speaking, what I’m writing is straight up fanfiction but emulating Wikipedia. I wish I could share the link so yall could have that experience, but I will probably post the text on ao3 and then I can share a pdf of the obsidian file, as it’ll be the closest whe can get to that feeling
I mean, technically it is literally Fanlore but sure. I only said it because I found Fanlore because of Son of Seafoam and it was Castor (Angevine)'s page I found (that was only canon to Son of Seafoam) but eh.
Yup, like, you can write about fanfiction on fanlore in the same way you can write about a book on Wikipedia. So if I wanted, I could write down the Athenide au explaining how it came to exist, the common themes, even ocs, etc. But what im doing is writing a “wiki page” of Athenide as if I lived in the Athenide world in which she’s a canonical Greek goddess, which is basically a fic (and would probably be deleted from fanlore bcs it doesn’t serve the purpose of the site).
I could (technically) use fandom dot com for it… but I’d rather not (a lot of ads and I’m not used to the platform) 😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️
I wanted to posted with obsidian just because of the template and all 😩 I mean, it is possible to make a wiki-like template on notion that I can share for free, but I don’t really like to use notion as anything other than a planner
(I’m very annoying with softwares and sites as you can see)
Eh, I get it. I'm just excited for anything lmao
POV: You live in the Athenide world and you searched for “Perse” on Wikipedia
Perse Athenide, goddess of loyalty
Perseis, wife of Helios
Perses, son of Krios
Perses, son of Helios
Perses, brother of Hesiod
Perses, son of Perseus
Perseus, son of Zeus
Perseus, son of Nestor
Perseides, descendants of Perseus
Persephone, wife of Hades
Perse, Italian olive oil brand
Perse’s, famous pizzeria in Brooklyn, NYC
Perse's is an accidental temple (to Perse), by the way. Demigods are attracted to it like moths to a flame.
Monsters can’t enter either. The workers are properly paid for their labour. The food is excellent. The owners are surprisingly good people.
Except they CAN enter, but not with the intention of harming demigods. Like they literally cannot harm them physically. The moment they get such a thought they are blaster out of the door.

My absolute favourite trope in PJO seafam fanfics is the idea that Percy is considered a child, or better yet a toddler, in the customs of Atlantis. Everyone is impressed yet horrified that the beloved king's son has been on the front lines since he was practically still a baby.
Cherry on top is everyone calling Percy "little prince".
I literally can't get enough of Percy being doted on and pampered. Especially in Atlantis! Percy deserves to be cared for, darn it! The poor baby has been through hell!
Do you have any recs? Because I'd LOVE some.
Seafam week fics on AO3 tend to have several fics where Percy is close to his immortal family.
I really love this one!
The Percabeth was a bit annoying but it was so worth it! It's part of a series so you can enjoy other fics where Percy is the baby sibling :)
Thanks ❤️ Gonna read it as soon as possible
(Tumblr won’t let me answer it, just publish, so I’m answering like this)
A loooong time ago I think we discussed about how the “leaf in the fountain” was the Greek’s version of the “birds and the bees”. But thinking of it as the Athenian’s using it to explain their roots to that land is just chef’s kiss.
Yesterday, I couldn’t sleep so I started writing another Athenide Oneshot from Luke’s perspective, it was just him reading a book about the myths involving Athenide (because I want to write a fic that is just the Athenide lore through her myths, but idk if anyone but I would like it to be written like and actual myth’s book), and there is this part where the “author” of the book comments that the Athenians took great pride that their ancestors witnessed a goddess’ birth, so I can definitely see them saying that they were sprouted in Athens just like Athenide 😂
Or that Athenide was the “first citizen” born in Athens or something… which would be yet another interesting contradiction to Athens, Yk?
They have a patron goddess
Their first citizen was a woman
And yet, women were not considered citizens 🤡
I personally would definitely love a book purely of her myths
really? 😭😭😭
Absolutely
It had been on my mind for awhile now and it won't go away but what if, Percy wasn't the only one that got reincarnated into the past and reborn into a diety?
How about if the other demigod of the seven got reincarnated or what if the other children of the elder six such as Thalia, Jason, Nico, Bianca, Hazel and Kate got reincarnated into the past as gods?
I can still see them having the same divine parent as they had as a demigod and all but as gods, they would have a additional godly parent - for example Nico, Bianca and Hazel would still be children of Hades but they would have Persephone as their mom, similar to how Percy is still Posedion's child as Athenide but Athena is his mom.
I can see Hera being Jason's mother since as a demigod, Hera as Juno and Juno is his patron goddess and all, I can see Hera being his mother if he's a god in the Athenide universe, maybe even to Thalia but i doubt Thalia would like that. Anyway since Percy as Athenide is loyalty, maybe he's honor? As you know, intrigity? Maybe that can be that domain for him?
The reason for this idea of mine is me randomly stumbling across the Samurai code of honor which include loyalty, honor, courage, respect, compassion, honesty and duty and I thought since Athenide is the goddess of loyalty, wouldn't it be interesting if Athenide was part of a group of gods that represent and uphold a sort of morality, some sort of code of honor or something like that?
Anyway, this had been on my mind for some time now since the Athenide universe had been living in my mind rent free for quite a bit, so apologies for my ramblings! Feel free to add your own input as I'm curious to hear people's thoughts of my idea.
That's very interesting to think about!
I personally think that they would arrive at the past much, much later than Perse though. I imagine Nico to arrive after Asclepius. And after Zagreus, maybe after he becomes more... Mature? Basically where he'd be a proud older brother or something.
Thalia I can see being Artemis' daughter. It would also kind of fit with ttg where Artemis kind of wanted to play with or, like, prank her brothers (Apollo and Artemis).
Hazel I can see becoming Hecate and Hades' daughter.
Though I imagine that if somehow Will, Kayla and Austin (or whoever more) came back also she'd be unsure... Like hm, should I finally get with Apollo? No... That wouldn't work, I need to wait for them to be Bron the human way.
Very interesting anyway!
Oh wow, that would be a really cool concept! I'm curious how the parentage would come for be for Hazel and Thalia if they we're born goddesses as you know, Persephone is the mistress of Hecate, her lady in waiting and Artemis being a virgin goddess, who swore off all men...
Maybe for Thalia, Thalia was born a goddess born from Artemis and one of her huntresses, maybe Zoë? Where after a argument with one of her brothers about kids, Artemis's mind was not where it is and when one of her huntresses ask what was wrong and attempted to help her, Artemis lashed out accidently revealing her true form to her huntress briefly but because her mind was somewhere else, her true form instead of evaporating her huntress sweeps into her creating Thalia! A reverse of Dionysus's birth myth or something.
I personally was thinking more along the lines of how Perse became to be. I don't know about how exactly but I imagined Thalia still being Zeus' daughter at first but it just didn't sit right with me, y'know? I can still see him being her father but I see Artemis being her mother more. I imagine it would happen because of Thalia being her lieutenant. (Basically I never imagined it happening because of sex)
Also this is not exactly related but wouldn't it be so interesting if one of the ones also arriving in the past being Perse's child? Obviously they weren't before, but they are now. The easiest I can imagine this happening is with Will though I dunno.
Another I would love to see happen is with Bianca and/or Jason. Mostly Bianca though because it would be... Easier, I guess, to make Hera his mother.
With Bianca and her being dead beforehand + Perse being a psychopomp I can definitely see it happening.
Like imagine she's maybe in one of the rivers (Lethe or Styx) and she just returns with a child (a godling) that was not supposed to be there. Perse is not sure why she felt she had to be there but once she gets there and the child forms, it all makes sense. (Where Perse is Bianca's only parent)
Annabeth I kinda think wouldn't arrive for a LONG time... Or at least not as her mother's daughter. Whose daughter would she be otherwise? I have no idea.
Though also I think it would be kinda better if only the big three (or at least those who were originally big three) arrived. Or at least if the rest arrived even later.
In that case; about Jason, I wanted to make him both Hera's and Zeus' son but I can't imagine it. So, another way would be Hera deciding to try to have another kid by herself. Hence Jason being a "full" brother of Hephaestus. Which would be kinda cute, I think they would get along.
On Hazel I was thinking some magic going wrong. Now, how would Hades non-existant DNA enter Hecate's magic, I have no idea (I have a small idea? Hades needs a new guard something for his jewellery, even might just want to make something jewellery related for Persephone but he wants to make something special, beyond his usual gifts of jewellery, so he goes to Hecate for help. Hades uses his divine essence because he wants Persephone to have part of his essence so they won't feel apart even when they are, and Hecate is obviously using her essence, magic goes whoom, boom, gloom and new child-godling-baby Hazel is born) but jwmsms

A List of Percy's Future Demigod Children (Incomplete)
Like I posted seconds ago,
I love you so much
A List of Percy’s Future Beaus
1) Apollo, obviously. This is a Perpollo fic.
2) Odysseus and Penelope. They’re a package deal.
3) Vlad the Impaler. Full credit to @anotheroceanid for this, I just find it amusing.
4) Queen Christina of Sweden.
5) Anne Lister, before she married Ann Walker.
6) Lord Byron. Percy considers this to be one of her worst romantic decisions, only slightly better than Dracula.
7) Frida Kahlo. Apollo is intensely jealous, but of who? We’ll never know.
We love a bisexual queen.
I love you so much for including Ody and Pen.
I love you for all of this actually
