So there hasn’t been too much in the Percy Jackson fandom lately. Still waiting eagerly for the movie, which I am sure will be absolutely and utterly awesome.

cabinthree has had some fun little things lately, including two awesome chapters of The Ties that Bind which I am totally digging. I also have a big idea of what’s happened, and it makes me kinda sad :(

One thing that they posted is a possible script for the movie. You can see it here, but I’m not going to read it. I don’t want to get spoiled for the awesomeness that will be the movie. :D

What IS okay to look at though are some of the on-set pictures that were posted here. The first picture has Logan and Alex holding giraffes. ♥ In case you didn’t know, giraffes are my favorite animals.

There are some really cool costume pics in that link, so make sure to pick it out. Logan is uber cute :D

Also, Amazon has posted up the movie cover of the first book. You know, the ones that show the cast? You can see it here and I must say that I am sorely disappointed. I was hoping for a brand new pic, you know? But it’s the same dumb movie poster.

Which we have seen WAY too much of, seriously. :(

Most of my visitors looooooove the Percy/Nico. So here’s my collection of Percy/Nico amazingness. ♥

LiveJournal Communities

percyxnico – The Dead Ocean: the official (at least in my opinion ♥) Percy/Nico fan community!

pjo_slash – Percy Jackson Slash: a general PJO slash community

Fanfics

Family Dinner – Percy and Nico have their family over for dinner. [complete-oneshot] (Wrote a bigger review here)

Too Strong a God – On Percy’s birthday, Nico appears at the window with a few things in mind. One, a way to defeat the titans. Two, that he likes Percy. As in likes. And maybe Percy will agree with both ideas. [complete-chaptered] (There are two sequels – The Age of Heros and The Ties that Bind, which is still in progress) (I do plan on reviewing this proper soon)

Kiss a Boy in Tokyo Town – Olympus has moved to Japan, and Percy and CHB have gone with. One day, Nico appears in Percy’s room, and in the midst of showing off the country to Nico, Percy finds that maybe it’s not Annabeth that he’s looking to show everything too. [complete-chaptered] (Totally gonna review this too! I just finished it earlier today, super cute <3)

In the Loop – When, exactly, did Nico fall so out of the loop? [complete-oneshot] (Cute little fluff :3)

Chemistry – Nico’s got a science project to do, but Percy’s horny. [complete-oneshot-pwp] (It was fun to read, smutty, but not my fav)

The Mythos of Beer – Percy & Nico get drunk. (Kyute <3~) [complete-oneshot]

The Last Cry in Hades (Not Guilty) – I don’t even know how to describe it. It’s a series of clips showing interactions between Nico and Percy, and a developing relationship. It’s really poetic and has deeper meanings that I didn’t really get on my first read-through. It’s worth another read – that’s for sure. :) [complete-oneshot]

Sink or Swim – Nico doesn’t know how to swim. Tomorrow is water polo day. Who to ask? Durr. (Not really Percy/Nico, but it’s got the feeling ;p) [complete-oneshot]

Sometimes, My Life Just Sucks – Percy is always in a mess. This time, yet again, it’s because of Nico. (Not fully Percy/Nico, but it’s still cute ♥) [complete-oneshot]

Break Myself – Percy isn’t doing so hot after the whole prophesy thing went down. And Nico has his own unique problems to contend with. [inprogress-chaptered] (It’s cute. And has turnedon!Nico ♥)

Goth 101 – Percy is tired of stalking girls and decides he wants to be more like Nico. [complete-oneshot] (A little OOC, but who cares? :D)

Not to Be – One sided love just doesn’t work out. [complete]

One Fell Swoop – It’s always a disconcerting feeling, when something very safe, and sure, something you would have relied on forever, ups and leaves. Sort like when you miss a step going downstairs, and your stomach swoops, and you wonder how you could’ve missed it. (Stole the FFN summary because I like it ♥) [complete-oneshot] (A cute little ficlet where Nico figures out what he wants…)

This Treaty of Inviolable Friendship – In which Nico tries to be romantic and Percy is impatient. :) [complete-oneshot] (Cute Valentine’s piece ♥)

wear my kiss – Aphrodite’s fucking curse… mwah [complete-oneshot] (warning, nc-17, but HOT)

Stop Thinking – Nico’s going into high school… and Percy is Annabeth’s puppy dog. [complete-oneshot] (cute :3)

The Water-Bearer – “There’s this look on his face, like he doesn’t expect Percy to know the name – or, rather, that he’d be amused if he does.” [complete-oneshot] (Percy/Nico PREslash, and it focuses on another couple all together, but the Percy/Nico scene is beyond cute ♥)
–> sequel: Immortality
–> by same author, so maybe related?: Cohabitation

playing pass the parcel with human body parts (someone might get head but someone might get hurt) – Once a cheater, always a cheater, right? [complete-oneshot] (Percy/Luke which I don’t really care for BUT then comes Nico! :D hawt ♥)

Heartstrings -”In which Nico is threatened, and Percy has groupies, and someone plays the piano.” [complete-oneshot] (This one kinda confused me, but the ending is cute ♥)

Just Let the Water Win – A fluffy afternoon in the life of Percy/Nico. NC-17 [complete-oneshot] (Smutty fluff. I wasn’t aware something like this could be pulled off so well. It’s… light, I guess. Fluffy, but yet we still get smut. It gets the characterization done well~)

Let Me Be Your Armor – A giant ice monster is attacking, and so the demigods go to fight. And when Nico collapses in the snow and is like, frozen… obviously, Percy must warm him up. Lips work well, right? [complete-oneshot] (I feel like I need to see Troy now. :))

Be Prepared – Percy/Nico/Luke – The boys go camping. A game of “I Never” quickly evolves. Smut. [oneshot] (Holy shit…)

Remove Tag Before Washing (and Other Addenda to Growing Up) – Percy/Nico/Annabeth – Each relationship has it’s basis in something. This fic is an exploration of three separate relationships, and how they work together [sequel is linked] (the format makes this one awesome. it makes it work)

Sakura Blushes – Nico’s blushes don’t really appear with his skin tone, but Percy’s sure do… [oneshot] (Awww ♥)

Butterflies Drink of the Dew of Your Thighs – Nico as transgender. [oneshot] (It has non-Percy pairings for Nico too, but eventually goes down to Percy… I’m not a fan of het or transgender stuff, but it’s a cute piece in it’s own way.)

the one where percy and nico are on a boat – After nearly blowing up half of America, Percy isn’t really welcome anywhere. So he leaves on a boat. Nico comes. [oneshot-nc17] (This could be a movie. With a very sexy climax scene. :3)

old casettes and cigarettes – Percy really likes fucking Nico, and likes the other times too. He’s not sure why, but he’s sure he likes it. [complete-oneshot] (I like the ending)

He’s Just Unlucky – Nico’s realized how he feels. Too bad he’s just unlucky. [compelte-oneshot] (:()

The Long Red Road – A Percy/Nico story set in a Western setting. Instead of Gods, we have the owner of the water, the timber, and the mines… [inprogress] (Interesting concept… oO Just started)

Heat – A collection of short stories detailing a P/N relationship. [inprogress] (I went into this not so sure. I am left really liking it. Especially chapter 3. It goes beyond the two characters we have here and extends to everyone…)

A Very Percy Christmas – Nico’s invited over to Percy’s for Christmas. But it’s not just wrapped presents that Percy wants to give… [inprogress] (I didn’t really like it, but it’s not bad, so I’m including it.)

LOVE – Both Nico and Percy are famous singers. They’re also best friend rivals. [inprogress] (Slow updating… but an interesting character set-up.)

In Which Nico is Awesome and Percy is a Plumber – A trailer. [complete?] (Just go with it.)

Trying Something New – Percy is noting something different about Nico… [complete] (Awww. ♥)

Percy Jackson and The Olympians, The Heart Thief – Nico comes back injured. [complete] (Another awwwww ♥)

solace in scattered breadcrumbs – After the battle, Percy is broken… [oneshot] (A most interesting character study.)

4:42 am – Nico’s home late [oneshot] (Sickeningly sweet.)

the afterlife, sponsored by red bull – Everyone knows about the Gods now, but it doesn’t quite matter cuz Percy’s dead. [oneshot] (It took me awhile to get this…)

Fan Mixes

A fanmix is a… well, fan-made mix CD. :-)

A Divine Rhapsody, put together by despairsvanity.

New OTP is awesome.

OTP, by the way, means “one true pairing”. Hehe.

“Family Dinner” – that one? I left a review on ff.net and the author was happy. :) She responded to me, seems pretty cool.

And the one I linked to and mentioned in the Fandom post? Well, that story is actually the 3rd in a series. Well, today I read the first. Tomorrow I will read the second. <_>

It’s a Percy/Nico love story, durr, and very cute. It’s somewhat canonical, but completely ignores the final book. Kinda have to for the story to work. But there is no problem with cutting out a book to make a cute love story happen :)

It starts with “Too Strong a God” and can be found here.

Squee~ ^^

NOTE: This post has slight spoilers for the Percy Jackson series, including a character that doesn’t appear until the 3rd book. (Or maybe the second, I dunno) As well as his parentage. I also talk about how the series ends briefly :P

Every now and then, I tend to get kinda down. Today was one of those days. I don’t really have a reasoning for being down, it’s just… sigh. So what is there to cheer me up? Sometimes I’ll bug my friends, or I’ll play some games, or whatever… today, I decided to continue in my quest for understanding of the Percy Jackson fandom. And to do that, I found fanfic.

And I think I found my new OTP. Nico, by the way, is my favorite character in the books. I’m always a fan of the kinda depressing-emo-whatever characters. Lone wolfs in Digimon, whatever. But yeah, Nico was my favorite character from the moment he arrived. He’s got the whole my-life-sucks-cuz-I’m-Hades’-kid deal going on.

SO, without further ado, I rec Family Dinner by Amethyst Grey to you. It follows canon for the most part – even with the Annabeth girlfriend thing that comes at the end of book 5. But basically, it’s a heartwarming series about the dating Percy and Nico having their parents (Sally, Poseidon, and Hades) over for dinner. It has the quirks of canon and still has that fun little lovey-dovey theme that can just make you giggle, especially the ending scene.

It’s a quick one shot, and only 7,000 words so a quick read. But wahhh it’ll make you smile :)

You can find it HERE – it’s been added to my list of favorites! ^^

And durr, if you haven’t gotten it already, it’s slash. As in Nico/Percy GAYSEX. Woo!

Well.

I really really really should have just stopped after I made that last post. But I didn’t. Haha. Now I’ve come across the main(?) LJ community for Percy Jackson: cabinthree.

A few of the highlights:
logan at a party – where Logan (Percy) is at a party, drunk, and talks very vulgarly. I’m sure his agent loved that.
fear the hoodie – some icons one of which is totally epic.
Percy/Nico slash fanfic – it was at this point that I came to write the post. :)
logan stalking – he really is relatively cute (and here is part 1 – features shirtless logan)
r rated rachel/nico – nico is 12…
percy fanart – not lj, but cute :)

Apparently, next book comes out in Winter 2010 and will add a new twist to it all (?.?) Egyptian gods?

And finally, Percy Jackson versus The Hulk.

Fandom rocks. I rest my case.

Wow are there a lot of pics of Logan. If he was only a tad older, I would be a very happy gay boy. Hehe.
