Okay so this is for my new pal Gamelover41592... Lol I wasn't planning on writing this but as of five minutes ago it will be cannon. Let's do this. (I don't own Rick's characters)
"Why am I here?"
"I don't know why to be honest, Annabeth said that the Hunters should come over for a party. Basically it's you and Thalia."
"Thalia? Why would my maid and I be present at this gathering?"
"I'm not sure," Percy blushed. "Besides we are watching Hercules which I don't think you'll like…"
"Hercules? Why would cit'izens have a cinema about him?"
"Because he is a Greek hero by mortal terms. Plus Thalia just left so it's us three."
"That is not thy concern. Thy should be witnessing intelligence, not mockery on the Greek culture."
"Look I know what happened with Percy's sword and everything but-"
"Let me just witness what is written in this video square." She said simply, and dismissing the topic.
"It's called a TV," Percy commented.
"Listen Boy-"
"Shh! It's opening!" Grabbing the popcorn, Percy sat back and flinched as the opening song started.
"I reckon the Muses don't sing for every occasion, especially about the World's first ditch." Annabeth started while groaning and writing down the difference from mythology in her binder. She was the real reason they were watching the film; her essay about the myths and the Disney movie were to be compared for her Mythology class.
"Hercules was not raised on a farm," Zoë interrupted. "He was born in the farmlands yes, but he was a man. No damsel."
"Cool beans…" Percy sighed.
More moments passed as they face palm and argued.
"I don't think Hercules sang much."
"Oh I'll tell you what he sang-" Zoë started angrily.
"He lived in Greece for gods sake! The original demigods were all over! How could he not fit in? Everyone was practically his sibling or nephew/niece!"
"This cinematic picture display is extremely inaccurate," Zoë voiced.
"Movie! It's called a movie!"
"Don't correct me boy," she glared at him. She reached for her small sword to gut him like a fish. Literally; he was practically half fish.
"So he found the satyr," Annabeth sighed.
"And it sings as well," Zoë observed.
"Well I think we need to go the distance and finish this glorious movie," Percy said. Making a pun on the recently sang song was the stupidest thing he could do. He was punched on both shoulder by both women. He groaned as Hercules bent Riptide and saved damsel dolls.
"This is ridiculous! Thy shouldn't be witnessin' this. Tis be scurvy and dishonest!"
"Um… what?" Percy wondered clueless.
"It's ridiculous the movie is twisted and lying," Annabeth translated while grimacing at Hercules' hero training.
"Why? Because Riptide bends and Phil doesn't eat cans?"
"Boy I have told you of your sword. That is a filthy lie and I would have no part of it," she said walking out of the room.
"Hey we aren't even halfway through!"
"Tis be thy problem," she grunted and walked out of the apartment. Percy walked over to Annabeth awkwardly and sat down.
"That went better than expected."
"Thalia was never here you know. I wanted you and Zoë to bond better."
"Why?" He said turning towards her. Hercules conversed with Megera in the background.
"Well with you having Riptide and she knowing it's original owner… It felt right to know both of you after the quest. You worked well together."
"I'm a boy Wise Girl. She's never going to like me."
"Well she knows you a little better now."
They sat back awkwardly keeping their hands in their laps before Percy altered his position and put an arm around the back of the couch, opposite of Annabeth. She ignored the flip in her stomach when she imagined Herself being on the other side of the couch underneath his arm. She swallowed and acted bravely.
"I'm not sure why he would believe Meg so quickly," she said while grabbing his left arm and placing it over her shoulders. He blushed and settled it there; ears red. She blushed herself and almost laughed when he responded a minute later.
"He believed her. Plus Pain and Panic as children don't really have bad acting skills," he murmured.
"Well Meg shouldn't have sold her soul to Hades for some guy in the first place."
"She did it out of love," he argued.
"That doesn't mean you go to Hades, if all go to the goddess of love."
"Fair point," he reasoned.
They watched as Hercules had a sudden downfall after experiencing fame. Hercules cried to his father about being famous in the background when Percy turned to Annabeth.
"Are you okay?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well Thaila, Zoë, Bianca, and I sure didn't go to Atlas and Luke for a walk in the park." She laughed.
"Yes, Seaweed Brain. I'm fine."
"Good," he hugged her with one arm.
"Why? Because I know Hercules had to hold the weight of the world on his shoulders; I don't want you to feel like that."
"He also had a satyr quit on him," she referred to a later part in the movie.
"Look, do you even need to finish the movie? Just Google it," Percy reasoned.
"You know what? I will, screw this." She clicked the remote of in Percy's room. Now they were just leaning against the couch-like bed in his room with Percy's arm around her. They blushed.
"We could… go to Camp?"
"Sure," she said standing up.
"Where have you been? You told me you were going to see Percy," Thalia shouted.
"I was. We were at his house." Her expression looked between the two of them and changed completely.
"You two were at his house alone eh?" Several campers overheard.
"NO," Percy blushed. "Zoë was with us."
"Zoë? Zoë who?"
"Nightshade," Annabeth said blatantly.
"She's dead. Lady Artemis cast her as a constellation. You didn't hear?"
"No she wasn't," Percy freaked.
"Yes she was. I saw it."
"But she was with us…" Annabeth trailed on. She paled and looked at me. "But it was her."
There we go! Sorry about any errors. Lol this is set where Annabeth and Percy weren't present for the constellation scene and must have been occupied somewhere else, maybe with her dad. Review please! J
Side note: I had Annabeth say reckon just as a reminder of where she is originally from- Virginia baby!
