Percy Jackson One-Shots

Would I be friends with these characters in high school (HOO)

Piper-

Call me judgemental but I definitely would not like piper at first. The whole stealing for attention and the kinda internal misogyny we have going on isn't a great look....BUT I know after a conversation with her I'd love her. Specifically mark of Athena and Blood of Olympus piper. I don't know but something about her in those books. Where she really becomes her own person and not "Jason's girlfriend" or "the daughter of Aphrodite". I also think she'd be great in discussions in class, and an absolutely amazing partner for class projects, like she'd really try to think outside of the box and present creatively. Which I appreciate.

Frank-

Nawww frank. As much as I adore his character, I don't really think Frank and I would interact or cross paths too much. The only time I can probably think of would be while I'm in student council and he's also there because he's helping Hazel who is actually a member of student council. But I think as he gets older he'll definitely grow into the role and find himself as school captain. But I'd be long graduated by then, so our paths really wouldn't intersect. He'd be super enthusiastic about helping with events even though he isn't officially part of the council, and I will always vibe with that. HOWEVER, Nico, Frank and I would definitely geek over mythomagic together, no questions asked, it would be our own thing.

Leo-

Okay so. I'd probably be annoyed with Leo. I'm sorry but yeah. I genuinely don't mind class clowns, but he's the type of class clown that still knows what's going on and that irks me, especially in classes I don't get. And the ones that Leo would really shine in are the math and science subjects...my weak points. (Also Leo is definitely the type of genius kid to skip a couple of grades hence why he'd be in my class). So if he's messing around while I'm trying to concentrate I'm gonna get a bit peeved. Any other class I probably wouldn't care. However outside of the classroom, and him being in my friend's group I'd absolutely vibe with him. We have super similar humour...as in we both use humour to deal with trauma. And I think that would be a great bonding experience for the two of us. Also he'd definitely unintentionally be like top of some of his classes, so similar to Annabeth, the three of us would probably get together at one point and try to study, but both of their ADHD (and my possible undiagnosed ADHD?? Idk I need to talk to my doctor lol) would make it a pain in the ass, but we'd get through it.

Hazel-

As with the other people around her age in this list, our paths wouldn't really intersect a lot. But because I know she'd be the type to be in student council, I'd see most of her then. She's a very well spoken, articulate and extroverted person, so I don't think even I could ignore her social butterfly charisma. And she's an absolute sweetheart who eats bullies for dessert so of course I love her and would be friends with her. But she'd be a school friend, not like a friend friend. Like if I saw her at the shops I'd say hi and stop and talk for a bit, but I wouldn't make plans with her to meet up at the shops...hopefully that makes sense.

Jason-

Mr Jason Grace would also be on student council and I know for a fact that he'd probably let it get to his head. And I would absolutely despise him for it. Also. I think he'd peak in high school. (I said what I said). I'd only know him through student council and mutual friends (piper and Leo primarily). I don't really see him getting along with Percy all that much, especially in school. But I can see him having a study group with Annabeth, which is probably where our paths would cross more. I don't know what it is about him, but people who are very polished and who always try to seem put together set me off. I want to see them be human. And teenagers in high school are the most raw a human can be because that's when we're feeling the most things. But I feel like Jason would just be all smiles and greet people with bro fists and slaps on the back. And it'd freak me out because I'm a mess and he looks like nothing phases him. Idk I could talk more about my relationship with Jason but yeah I don't think we'd not get along...I just don't think I'd put enough effort to get along.

Reyna-

Oh yeah. I'd probably meet her on the sports team, (I played netball in high school). And we'd get to know each other through there and despite her being quite closed off, I think I'd still get along with her. But I don't think we'd be close. For the same reason that I'm not friends with Jason, it's apply to Reyna too. But I know I'd put in more effort with her because I'd probably develop a crush on her. She's kinda my type. Like in netball in goal shooter and she'd be like goalkeeper, and since we spend a lot of time together in the game, we'd talk a bit. And I used to make really snarky comments about the players like commentary and stuff like in the sports games, and I feel like one day she'd smile at a joke I made and then she'd come out of her shell and we'd talk a bit.
