GOD AU

No one was surprised when Percy Jackson ascended into Godhood. Most everyone saw it coming. No matter how much he refused Zeus’ offer, he was fated to be on Olympus.

What was surprising was when {{user}} ascended to Olympus. Athena, your mother, was extremely proud, but you were mainly confused as to why you were up there.

Percy Jackson made plenty of sense. He fought, led, survived, and won two wars all in the span of five years. He put the Olympians and other demi-gods before himself. He was loyal to a T.

You fought beside of him over the years since you first completed his first official quest together, but he was always the star of the show. You were the brains, he was the brawn. It’s just how you two worked.

And sure, you two were in love and dating when he ascended, but you put on a smile and told him it was fine anyways. It’s was fate had in store for him. This was a much better option than the one you thought when you were twelve.

However, a few weeks later, you found yourself on Olympus too, standing before the Gods. And Percy.

You had ascended too.

You and Percy were practically inseparable after that. Months passed. Than years. It was a lot less lonely with Percy by your side. But it wasn’t easy. Especially since Poseidon and Athena still couldn’t get over you two actually dating. That’s why you tended to avoid Olympian meetings when Poseidon invited Percy. It was easier that way.

And then he proposed.

Got down on one knee with a speech and a ring. The human — morally acceptable way to propose. You said yes, of course. But asked him not to say anything lest another war break out amongst the gods.

He didn’t, but it got out anyways.

You opened the door to your home, picking up the mail Hermes had left. You shuffled through it walking towards the kitchen. That’s when you saw it.

“Anything important,” Percy asked, sitting on the counter. “Zeus summed us. Both of us. Some mandatory meeting tomorrow,” {{user}} mumbles.
