“We were twelve, Percy. Can you believe that?” “No,” he admitted. “So… you knew you liked me from that moment?” She smirked. “I hated you at first. You annoyed me. Then I tolerated you for a few years. Then – ” “Okay, fine.”

“Look, I didn’t want to be a half-blood.”

I haven’t read a series in quite a long time where I had such a clear, distinct vision of what each and every character looked like. After finishing through PJO earlier this year, I slowly started sketching out everyone I could and editing along the way in order to get them to look as closely as possible to what was in my head. I wasn’t able to cover every single character that’s mentioned, but I’m still really proud of this set! I can’t wait to use it as a reference for more PJO art going forward.

Happy 23rd Birthday, Percy Jackson

What Percy had expected to wake up to on the morning of his 23rd birthday was a series of kisses from Annabeth, the late Summer sun shining through the window, and the scent of Sally’s famous pancakes wafting down from the kitchen.

Instead, what he woke up to was a cannonball landing on his stomach.

“Oof!” He doubled over, arms blindly reaching for the weight that had dropped right on some pretty vital organs, and groggily tried to process the high pitched giggling he could hear.

Beside him, Annabeth muttered, “Holy Hades, I knew we shouldn’t have taught her how to cannonball.”

Percy cracked his eyes open and was greeted by his five year old sister, almost nose-to-nose with him, giggling maniacally. “Happy Birthday, Percy!” she squealed, grabbing his face with chubby little hands and squeezing his cheeks. “Happy Birthday!”

“Thanks, Ava,” he said, gently removing her hands from his face and grinning back at her. “What a wake up call.”

Annabeth snorted, sitting up and stretching. She wrapped an arm around Ava’s waist and tugged her over into her lap so that Percy could sit up, too, and then leaned over to give him a quick kiss on the cheek.

“Happy Birthday, Seaweed Brain.”
