Will Solace - Blog Posts

Pjo character habits but its things that I do

Jason: draws wolves in class because for the love of the gods he cant do math, but then gets called out on it (based on a true event)

Piper: fixing her hair everytime she sees a mirror/has to check themselves out in any reflection to see if she looks good (Gotta look good)

Frank: binge watching crappy reality tv, or baking shows with Percy (cuz i love jersey shore)

Leo: meowing as a stim (dont judge me)

Percy: putting his hand in any small pocket of water or in fountains; he also prefers cold drinks

Annabeth: keeps buying books but just rereads the same books (yes its fanfic)

Hazel: announcing any animal she sees out loud, sees a bird? “BIRD!”

Nico: hates sweatpants, makes his legs hot and the texture is gross (blame it on the Mediterranean genes)

Will: resting bitch face Ik this man zones out like crazy thinking about dumb shit and everyone thinks hes mad (got asked this one to often)

Grover: keeps the bottle caps/tabs of his drinks (i keep mine in a jar)

“Do you think Nico knows that Yugoslavia doesn’t exist?” Is boring, do you think Will Solace is one of those Texans who think they won The Alamo is GOLDEN

The Hotel California by the Egales has such Apollo (pjo) energy, I feel like he saw the lotus hotel in the 70s and was like “i can write a song bout this lol” and shoved in those sick guitar rifts about a immortal hotel

I am proudly spreading this around like propaganda

!deaf Will Solace head-cannon

He wasn’t born deaf but it happened at a young age. While his mother Naomi was out doing shows, she would bring Will along and her crew had to remind will to keep his headphones on all the time(since he is backstage near lot of amps). But having ADHD, he fidgets with the headphones and takes them off when a monster appears, leading to a amp being destroyed right next to Will’s ears causing damage.

This lead him to wearing hearing aids at a young age being only partially deaf until he discovered his sonic whistle witch made him go deaf. He knew how to sign before arriving at camp and after Leo was dropped off and Will gave him a tour, he learns morse code as-well because he understands what its like to want to communicate nonverbally.

And whenever Will is verbally fighting with anyone (mostly joke fights with Nico) he would just say “ive heard enough!” And turn off/take off his hearing aids for the rest of the day. He ofc takes it off when he is training or at the beach but most importantly when he is healing because he never knows when he overexerts himself. He also uses sign whenever he feels upset and teaches a class so other campers can learn asl! :}

Its him, its the boy, the sunshine, the man I wish I was, sir William Andrew solace

I have real art coming soon i promise 🦐🏳️‍🌈

Moth and his lamp

I have decided on posting art here because there is to much in my folder, ANYWAY THEY ALL LOVE FNAF (except for Jason who is terrified)

Will and Nico weren't built to be major characters we've gotta put 'em back

There's no problem with that. It's true. A lot of the characters have become underwhelming. I myself only liked Jason after I read a few fics exploring Jason's character. Because I agree that Rick does a shit job of portraying or highlighting Jason or many other key characters. I personally always used to see the take of Percy lovers hating on Jason and how wrong some anti Jason posts were, so I wanted to prove both of that wrong. I myself only enjoy Percy's character throughly throughout the books (not the new series, that's an abomination, even some parts of HoO are horrible but at least it's tolerable and has some great moments). I had love-hate moments with almost every other character, save for Hazel and Sadie. And some characters I do love have less or no proper exploration.

But no, I completely agree that certain characters fell flat. Personally, for me, Will Solace is such a character . This will probably enrage a few Solangelo fans. And Piper McLean who I absolutely disliked.

So let's finally talk about it. There's very few things that can actually make me mad on PJO fandom. Calling Percy dumb is the first one. It makes me seethe in rage. And among the other ones is calling Jason Grace boring.

What do you think is worse than trauma? You guessed it. Childhood trauma. Jason Grace is one of the most tragic PJO characters ever. You could almost say the quest with the Seven was one of the better things that happened to him.

Let's recap his life real quick.

Absolutely terrible mother who dumped him near Lupas territory when he was literally 2 years old. And the fact that he would be better off with Lupa than with Beryl Grace is just a testament to how shit of a mother and person she was.

Then he had to win Lupa's approval while she trained him when he was a literal toddler. If you think that's the end of it, it's not even close. Then he was sent to the camp. It was pleasant, as pleasant as a child-soldier factory can be. Which is not at all.

Being the son of Jupiter, he had insane expectations and prejudices forced upon him, along with a certain caged way of living. Fight a certain way, behave a certain way, think a certain way, and repeat. A monotonous, cyclic existence with no escape and no way for self thinking. After all, the Romans are about as creative as a marble is sharp. Imagine it, a child being raised in the legion, by the legion, molded to be the perfect soldier and Praetor who should have only the Legions benefit in mind with no opinions of his own.

Anyone, anyone would go insane and lose their mind because this is torture, complete, and utter torture. But do you know what's worse, that Jason didn't know how the world was supposed to be. Whatever he was used to living, he believed to be the normal thing. He had no idea the things that happened to him were wrong for a long time. In fact, he strived to be even more perfect, all for what? The approval of a god that was his father? A god he had never seen or heard from? That in itself is the tragedy of most Roman demigods or just demigods in general. But at least the Greek ones get to see them every once in a while.

I think Reyna was the first to see his as his own person and to give his individual opinions actual importance. Because she knew what it felt like to live a life of servitude and imprisonment. Under Circe and the pirates. I like to think that's how they bonded. By making each other's lives a bit happier than their former bleak prospects. And I bet they were super close. You can't convince me otherwise. Which is why I will never forgive Rick for ruining their relationship over Piper of all people.

Then, of course, he was demigod too on top of that, so his life was obviously and decidedly terrible. Being sent on fatal missions? Having the responsibility of not only his own life but his comrades life thrust upon him? CAN YOU IMAGINE LIVING LIKE THAT?? THE ABJECT HORROR OF A LIFE LIKE THAT?

5.

If that's not enough his even more repulsive and terrible godly father fucking offers him to Hera to appease her rage like he is some sort of bloody object. An object to be sold. A fuckinhg APOLOGY GIFT. And then what does Hera do to him? She wipes his memories, sends him to a foreign land which was previously considered enemy territory by the Camp he grew up in, forces fake memories upon him of fake friends, and sent him on another death quest. But at least Leo was one of the nicer things about that whole situation. I won't be touching the wreck that is Jiper with a ten foot pole.

And on, of course, he also gets nearly killed by the same goddess he was offered to as an apology gift. If that was enough, he would find out about the existence of his sister who had grown up and gone her own way, thinking he was dead and now was basically a stranger to him? Yeah wow.

And then everything else from the series happens like dear God, him and Percy are practically drowning in trauma. With Hazel, Nico and then Leo after them.

But at least Percy had Sally (even though the reason he put up with Gabe and his mental and physical abuse was Sally) and even though he felt like Sally was always sending him away and no longer wanted him which was fair of him to think but a grave misunderstanding. Sally was still the best thing in his life. Percy had someone to live for something to live forward to even though he was practically almost dying every year, which kept adding to his trauma. And Poseidon, he cared, acknowledged, and helped Percy. The bare minimum and Poseidon actually did even more.

We can assume Jason also had similar experiences with neither a mother's unconditional love nor a god's genuine care and love.

I am not going to say the Camp point because being the son of Jupiter, Jason had certain assurances, but Percy was practically ostracized or badly treated till book 3.

The only good thing that happened in Jason's life was meeting Reyna, the other Seven, and being friends with them, Nico and his sister, and also not falling in Tartarus, so yeah man's living his best life.

So no Jason Grace isn't boring, he is the most in depth character who had his autonomy and childhood stolen, his interests and opinions razed and his entire life molded and shaped for him, turning his mind and body into a tool to serve so called greater interests of Gods and Camp Jupiter. It's like ridiculing a blind man for not being able to see.

Next time, think twice before making that absolutely thoughtless, mindless, wildly inaccurate and cruel comment ever again.

There's no need to blindly hate Jason cause you love Percy or on Percy cause you love Jason. Hell, Percy is my absolute favorite, 90% of my posts are about him, but Percy is awesome and arguably the best all by himself. This is also true for Jason's character. (I am probably the only one who thinks Jason is stronger than Nico just due to greater experience and stamina.) We don't need to be like Rick or ship stans who demean Percy to prop up Annabeth or other characters. They are both iconic and great friends despite whatever rivalry Rick was trying to project.

Now I'm definitely beginning to think you aren't fine. Look, whatever you think you did, Will is your friend. Even if he's mad at you, it'll be okay - he doesn't seem the type to hold grudges.

Thank you guys for so many amazing asks!! It was a pleasure as always☺️ More to come, because I just can’t get enough of this poor boy lol.

Revenge?? For wha- never mind, I don't even want to know. But anyway, I doubt that's why. Hardly anyone's seen you since the battle ended, I think he's just worried you might be hurt.

I'm sure you can handle yourself, but that doesn't mean you have to, you know. Will didn't send me, but I know he's been looking for you. If you don't want to see him I can run interference for you, but I don't know how long that will work. He's can be pretty stubborn, especially when he's worried.

You should just go talk to him.

"I'm fine"??? really Nico, now you sound like Percy

Do you wanna talk about it?

Can I get you anything? Medical attention, something to eat, someone to talk to? It's been a rough day.

Nico: I walked through Tartarus /alone/.

im sure will wont be thAt mad

Nico di Angelo is online!🖤

He’s just run off from Will Solace after holding the healer back from futilely attempting to save Octavian during the Siege of Camp Half-Blood. Now, he’s actively avoiding him because of it... and perhaps another reason he has yet to come to terms with.

Please go send asks, guys! I wanna be able to provide as much Nico content as possible haha. He’ll be online in a little while, banged up from the battle and in denial about one particular son of Apollo💛

I will be online as post-Siege of Camp Half-Blood Nico di Angelo tonight!! Go send him some asks!❤️

Nico is offline.

Gnight guys! Thank you so much for the lovely asks and support💖 I’ll definitely be doing more of our favorite little emo demigod soon, I had a lot of fun :)

What do you think of pride?

Nico di Angelo is online!

He’s in Cabin 13, sans boyfriend, hearing voices again, and just generally being not okay. Go ask him some questions!
