Godswap AU, Luke.

I was thinking and I really wanted Luke to be the son of a minor god and so I decided to make him the son of Aristaeus. Luke actually has quite a few powers along with his swordsmanship. He can talk to sheeps, grow plants naturally but is more proficient in medical plants, and he can control wind (stronger in the summer) but not as Zeus or wind spirit kids can but still pretty good at it.

I think I wanted to make him the child of a minor god to further push the point of minor god kids being neglected, especially in this setting where a lot of poor people were different types of slaves. He was a commoner until he was taken to camp half blood where then he was taken on quests. On one dangerous quest he was the only one who came back alive (and where he gained his scar). He ended up being ridiculed and pitied by some of the other older campers and they began saying how they shouldn’t have chosen “lower minor god scum” to lead a mission.

So yeah children of minor gods weren’t all that respected in CHB (if you by any chance get claimed that is) and unclaimed campers were pretty much in the same boat.

After his failed quest, he began hearing Kronos talking to him and eventually fell in his clutches.

(Just thought of this but he still has his history with Thalia and Annabeth, his history with Percy is going to be more extensive though and I do want to explore that.)

After Percy follows the prophecy, gets attacked, and taken to CHB he meets Luke and they grow attached to each other until Percy finally goes on his quest. Sometime after Percy’s quest succeeds he puts his action into place and try’s to recruit (and then kill) Percy.

Luke I feel like is actually going to be the most similar but different character at the same time besides Percy in terms of his character and how I want it to progress so I’m really excited for when I start writing it.

i really hope odysseus' assault stops being downplayed someday

Godswap AU and it’s time period

I was thinking and I was thinking of what time period I wanted my godswap AU to be in and I’ve been thinking about maybe the ancient or medieval times.

I was really inspired by epic the musical in a way so I want to take some things from that.

I’m leaning towards more of a medieval time period.

I just really want to do a historical AU and I don’t want to do them separately so… what do yall think?

Small post cuz I’m in class rn.

Part 2 of demigod attributes.

A semi-brief introduction to demigod traits. Since the kiddos all come from diving heritage, it would make sense that they pick up divine traits.

Zeus!Percy (and possible siblings)

So I was thinking about Zeus!Percy and I was thinking about his possible childhood. I actually feel like it would relatively the same since he’s a big three child. He’d probably still have to deal with Gabe and all that but I do feel like his anger issues may be a bit intensified which may lead him to be put in more military schools when he was a child and possibly more fights.

His sense to protect would be greater I feel like which wouldn’t change much, at least not in his childhood.

One thing I do actually want to change is Percy possibly killing Gabe here. Zeus is a god of justice and especially after finding out Gabe hit his mom I feel like Percy might’ve killed Gabe (albeit possibly an accident).

His powers would mostly be control of storm related activities with his two main abilities being heliokinesis (control of the sun) and Atmo/Electrokinesis.

Other aspects and epithets of his powers would be unlocked throughout his quests, with him discovering the chthonic side of Zeus in the BoTL.

So basically Perseus is like a mini Zeus lol.

I think, especially because in the AU I’m considering Thalia to be a child of Apollo (still thinking on this). People would be very afraid of Percy at first, just like in canon and would slowly open up to him, but after his abnormal powers people would sort of stay away from him in fear because it’s like “wtf a child of Zeus isn’t supposed to have these types of powers are they??”

Especially when he shows off less than heroic traits people will stay away from him in this au, although after TLO he’s officially respected, especially after he stood up to his father on the treatment of demigods.

Now as for siblings one I definitely want to do for sure is Ethan as a child of Zeus. I feel like Ethan would be the opposite of Percy. While Percy got all the cool powers and domains, Ethan got nothing besides Zeus’s sense of justice and his war like attributes. He’d feel resentful towards Percy, especially because he wasn’t claimed and he feels like because he was born without powers, Zeus didn’t deem him worthy of being claimed.

Other things I thought of:

- Blue food would most definitely still be a thing.

- Percy controlling Poison is most definitely not going to be a thing, but I am cooking up some ideas, at least for the “dark” side of his powers.

- Being as I’m making him a legacy of Apollo, he still gets the weirdly prophetic dreams which definitely I intend to go a little deeper into. With the potential of alternate futures and Percy seeing it through his dreams (there are three fates after-all)

- Percy isn’t really close with Zeus or most of his siblings, but Poseidon like absolutely loves him. He’s like “woah can I claim this guy??” Just because of how unhinged and unrestrained Percy is going to be lol (even though Poseidon has children of his own).

- Nyx has a weird obsession with him. I thought it was as sort of uninteresting Nyx was interested in Nico. I feel like it would’ve been more interesting if Nyx was interesting in Percy or like someone else, especially because of the growing darkness of Percy in Tartarus. It would also be weirdly uncharacteristic of children of Zeus and I feel like Percy is legit all about breaking the Zeus child stereotypes.

- Percy is so like Zeus in certain ways, like when he’s commanding in battle or when he gets angry he looks so much like Zeus especially in his eyes it’s uncanny.

This is just a random yapping cuz I’m at school rn but tell me what you think in the comments please 🙏

Thinking about my godswap AU a little more, specifically about Annabeth and Grover. I think I want Annabeth to either be a child of hades, ares, or Aphrodite?? I could honestly see Ares or Aphrodite a bit more seeing as they’re both seem to have very emotional demigod children. I thought of Hades because of this one fan art I remember seeing so??

I also thought of Zeus for Annabeth so maybe Zeus? I think in this AU the big three pact may not be a thing so it gives me more freedom for sure. I’ve also thought about giving her a minor godly parent so any suggestions are welcome.

As for Grover I’m not sure. Honestly I don’t have alot ideas. I’ve either thought of:

- Keeping him a Satyr

- Demeter Child?

- Child of Silenus (God of Drunkenness, Forests, and Mine-Making, also tutor of Dionysus)

I feel like I could do alot of cool things with Grover if I made him a demigod but these are all just thoughts.

EDIT:

Please comment your thoughts I’d appreciate them 🙏🙏

Thinking about making a godswap and I’m think about what godly parent I should give these characters bcuz there’s so many options. So first we’re gonna start with Percy??

(I’d appreciate it if you gave your reason as to why in the comments to give me better insight lol. Keep in mind I sort of want to keep to core of his character and not change anything too drastically).

There are so many times I've thought to design a poster-style art piece of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde in a genre of a crime/murder mystery. Where Hyde and Jekyll are depicted as completely separate people until the very end, since the whole point of the story was that the fact they're the same man was meant to be a plot twist at the very end.

Also the transformation between the two identities is never 'seen', it's only referred to in third person in regards to the protagonist - only when Jekyll leaves a letter explaining everything is the duo-identify revealed.

I still find it funny how the book is probably earned itself the title of Most Pointless of the Classics to Read, since everyone, even mentioning Jekyll and Hyde, regardless of whether they've read the book or not, references the plot twist as the very first thing about them. Even early republishing illustrations and movie posters spoil the whole point of the story!

I'd love to see, not matter how pointless it seems, an adaptation that keeps to the genuine mystery the story had when first published. It would have to have a secrecy tradition like The Mousetrap, where everyone who's seen it can't talk about it.

tldr: Read Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and reeeeeaaally try to forget everything you know about it from pop culture. It's genuinely a good crime/murder mystery otherwise.
