Percy Jackson & Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Oracle Rachel Elizabeth Dare, Good Brother Percy Jackson, god Percy Jackson

She’d been the Oracle for ten long years now, and Rachel was happy with her lot in life. She was offered this position when she was a few months shy of turning sixteen and she just knew it was for her. Since then, she’d devoted her life to Apollo, dispensing counsel, prophecies, and help when needed. It had been a long ten years, but it was well worth it. She could not imagine her life being any different.

Percy Jackson Needs A Hug, Hurt/Comfort, Good Girlfriend Rachel Elizabeth Dare

I found myself hanging out in Rachel’s room more often these days. It’s barely been two months since the Titan war ended and I thought things would be better. As usual, that was just wishful thinking.

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Established Relationship, Unreliable Narrator, Complicated Relationships

“Damn it!” Out of everything to finally beat me, it just had to be sophomore English. I’d beaten monsters, Titans, and survived a prophecy that was supposed to kill me, but I couldn’t beat an English test of all things. I’d been trying to get this done for the past three hours but the words were just swimming in front of my eyes. I could barely go two sentences without a massive headache.

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Established Relationship, Names Have Power, Good Friend Annabeth Chase

“Rachel does know that names have power, right?” I blinked and turned to Annabeth. We’d been done with the war for about a week now and things were looking up. It helped that Rachel was around the whole time now and I could see her whenever I wanted.

Tartarus, BAMF Percy Jackson, Established Relationship

This was bad. This was very, very bad. I knew demigods had bad luck, it kind of came with the job, but this was something else. When we found Annabeth wrapped in spider silk, we tried to get it all off her and move her away from next to the Pit, but we weren’t fast enough. At least, we didn’t get away fast enough.

Underwater Kiss, Percy Jackson Needs A Hug, Good Friend Annabeth Chase

We were done. After so many years, the war was over. Kronos was beaten, Luke was gone, and I actually managed to live. We’d lost too many people though. Annabeth told me our casualties were about fifteen campers just in the last week of the war. It was too much.

She Looked Like A Million Golden Drachmas by undeath230

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Beach Date, Book 5: The Last Olympian, Fluff

The last time I took Rachel to the beach, I’d been too busy worrying about asking her out to really appreciate it. Now, looking at her, she looked like a million golden drachmas. The way the sun made her hair shine, the way she looked completely relaxed, the way the waves would calm when she stepped into the surf.

That Damn Hairbrush by undeath230

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Hairbrush, Comedy, Established Relationship

“You hit the Lord of the Titans in the eye with a blue plastic hairbrush.” “It was the only thing I had.” I remembered the first time Rachel used that hairbrush as a weapon clear as day. Annabeth and I were fighting over Luke, Kronos had risen, and this mortal who was only my age decided to nail Kronos of all people with a hairbrush. I’d been impressed back then, but I hadn’t realized just how wacky Rachel could get with it.

Meeting the Parents, Fluff, Established Relationship

I gulped and tried to think of a way out of this. Maybe I could calmly ask if she wanted to meet my dad. Of course, that meant I just ended up pulling a tongue twister out of my ass when asking her. “WannaAtlantismeetdadandstuff?”

Why did everything we did always have to end up going wrong? Seriously, if we could go one day without our plans going sour, that’d be great. If it’s not something going wrong at camp, then it’s Connor Stoll, and if it’s not him, then it’s a monster attack.

Percy hated fighting with Annabeth, but sometimes, she didn’t make it easy. It was like she wanted them to be at odds like she wanted to fight him, like she couldn’t continue with her day without insulting him at least once.

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Powerful Percy Jackson, Established Relationship, Oracle of Delphi

It's been a few months since Percy and the Seven had saved the world from Gaea. Percy has been contemplating a lot of things since but mostly about how he wanted to go without talking to people for a while, keep whatever remained of his sanity, have his peace. Until Rachel and he had shared a vision of his time down in the pit. He knew his peace would end, and whatever semblance of control and facade he kept would crack eventually but he had hoped it to be anyone but Rachel. Sure she was one of his closest best friends but more importantly she was his redheaded nightmare, a girl that he had loved and let go all to save the world.

Percy Jackson/Rachel Elizabeth Dare

Hurt/Comfort, AU - Canon Divergence, The Second Titan War

After a whole year of nothing but the war, I was starting to reach my limit. I didn't know how much more I could take of this, and I didn't want to find out how. I really needed a break. I needed out of this for just a bit. I hoped I could get it soon.

I believe that's all of them. If I missed anyone's fic, please let me know via mention (@) or dms and I'll add it.

𝖯𝖾𝗋𝖺𝖼𝗁𝖾𝗅 𝖡𝗂𝗇𝗀𝗈 𝟤𝟢𝟤𝟦 by @percy-and-rachel-events (late entry)🔸 "She looked like a million golden drachmas"

Remember when Percy surprisingly memorized Rachel’s phone number? Let's just say that he was also surprised when he caught himself replaying the view when Rachel looked like a million golden drachmas in his head. 

We arranged a meeting in Times Square. We found Rachel Elizabeth Dare in front of the Marriott Marquis, and she was completely painted gold. I mean, her face, her hair, her clothes—everything. She looked like she’d been touched by King Midas.

- Percy Jackson and The Olympians, The Battle of the Labyrinth

Percy sometimes came to the front of Marriot Marquis to see Rachel, painted gold, standing still like a statue as a form of art, and collecting donations at the same time. He remembered the first time he saw her in such a state, he thought it was weird to see her in gold, she looked like a statue of a famous person or an actress. 

Then in the next summer, Rachel and Percy drove around the stretch of beach on the South Shore. On a such hot August day, Rachel wore a white blouse over her swimsuit and pulled her hair up in a ponytail. Percy had never seen her like that and he just spontaneously thought that she looked like a million golden drachmas…

Maybe he told himself it was weird to see Rachel in gold for the first time, but perhaps unconsciously he was impressed. It must’ve been so remarkable that he instantly thought of her looking like a million golden drachmas when he saw her being pretty.

A twist to the original 'meme' where Percy calls Rachel a good girl for saving him with that dam blue plastic hairbrush.

Does this even qualify as an entry for the Hairbrush prompt tho😅?

You’ll always be a part of me~ I’m part of you indefinitely~

Percy has watched Mariah Carey’s Always Be My Baby music video, which is where he got the idea of the underwater kiss in the first place

A little headcanon of mine that Sally Jackson was a Mariah Carey’s Lamb in the '90s. 1995 when this song came out, she sang it to a 2 year old Percy, lullaby him to sleep, with doo doo doop doo doo do dum and their favorites are the outro adlibs 

Below is the reference:

I hope it is alright if I submit a post a bit late after August 3rd?

Of course! I usually leave the ao3 collection and keep checking the tumblr account for a few weeks after the event ends, just in case for whatever reason someone's running behind with their fanworks.

The Words left Unsaid

PERCY

Percy breathed deeply as soon as he felt the air of Montauk, with its rich and salty tang surround him. The anxiety he felt under his skin calmed a little as the waves happily lapped against his feet. He couldn't help the nostalgic smile. Rachel joined him soon after as he instinctively tensed. She must have noticed it because she remained silent, letting him work his thoughts out for himself, and he had never been more grateful for anything else. 

A wave roared in his ears as his thoughts spiraled, and he had to suppress the sensation.  He did not need another flood on his hands. The past few months had been rough, and Percy's powers had been all over the place, and he couldn't rein  them in no matter what he did. His Dad and Triton had both tried to make it better, but ever since the Pit , Percy had a feeling it would be permanent. Before then, he had felt as close to the sea as he possibly could. He had been able to call upon it, however, and whenever he pleased, but now it was something else, something more. The sea, the ocean, was under his skin, raging and churning for a release. Another reason why he was here.

He has been at home, a rare moment of calm with his mom and Paul. After all the trouble he had made them go through with his nightmares,  lack of sleep, out of control powers, and not to mention his paranoia. Fates must have seen that and gone: You thought, LOL NO. Because the next second, his phone had buzzed with a text from Rachel: I saw it. He didn't need further explanation than that.He shot her a quick reply, turned off his phone and grabbed Paul's keys.Before any of them could ask , he was out of the door, phone in his pocket. Yes,  he had begun using a phone. Because they stayed away now, the monsters ,because he was the one who was- 

"Percy, can you help keep the sand in place?" He was cut off from his darker thoughts by Rachel's words and on instinct he complied. He had barely been able to hear what she said over how soothing her voice sounded. He could feel the sand keep itself in place in response to his will; Rachel had a habit of drawing in the sand, a habit he really really liked. He had once set off waves upon waves over her sand drawings just to see her awed reaction at finding her drawing undisturbed.  He had liked that too. He had spent the entire day showcasing different stuff he could do with his powers to her. Annabeth and Thalia would have called him a showoff but he had enjoyed it and Rach had too so he didn't see a problem.

She wasn't in awe like the first time she had seen it but she was still smiling and he would do just about anything to see that soft smile. Rachel had always laughed a lot, always kept a very expressive face which he had learned was her small way of rebelling against her father who had done everything he could to forcefully turn Rachel into some poised lady. "Like a mannequin" she had once told him and he had felt a surge of anger and a vicious need to strangle the man.  But he was glad he could do something, even something so small that could genuinely make her smile. It made him smile too.

"Wouldn't want to disturb the new masterpiece." Percy told her as he watched her scrunch her nose, something he thought was really adorable amd very endearing; which was tame compared to the usual mess of feelings he felt around her; Somedays she looked so beautiful, it was hard to look at her. Looking at her like this, at them like this, he wished he could keep this moment going forever.  Him finally free from wars with only college to worry about, and the Oracle now having gone silent with Apollo being punished or whatever. But he wasn't the same, not after all that and he didn't know if Rachel had it in her to keep looking at him after what she had seen, after all, Annabeth's wailing screams were still fresh in his mind, a scar that wouldn't fade but Rachel's fear would break him, he knew that much. So he closed his eyes, took a deep breath and waited for everything to go wrong as it always did. 

RACHEL

To Rachel, he had always looked out of this world to her ever since she had met him on the Hoover dam. Steady gaze, sea green eyes, a flash of blue. Percy had been her gateway to a whole new world ever since. But today gazing at the sea, his eyes softly glowing, the way he stood, he looked like something more. Rachel would have said he looked like a God but she had met Gods, more so she had felt the essence of Gods  taking over her to communicate through her yet Percy had always felt like more. She had seen the way he had kept everyone at bay after the war, all of the seven, even Grover. Even Annabeth, especially Annabeth. She knew they had called things off soon after they had reunited in New Rom. Shee had seen it after all. But Percy could never keep her at bay, no more than she could keep him. They had seen and known things about each other through their visions, things so intimate, in a way no one ever could or ever should. Even when the Oracle's power was out of control, she could always rely on it to show her Percy, where he was, what he did or was about to do. Ever since she had met him, he had become her anchor. All her dreams started and ended with visions of him. She knew it was like that for him too, at least sometimes. They had shared dreams before. She had really liked it, having him there. Because Rachel had been afraid, there was a lot to fear even in her dreams, but if Percy was there , everything would be alright, she would be safe, always. Even her father had accepted that. 

So she and Percy had done what they always did. Sit together in silence doing their own things occasionally talking about the most random of things, a lot of words left unsaid but understood. Until yesterday when she had seen him in the pit, seen everything unfold in the pit. Rachel wasn't sure if she could understand it all  even though she had been learning up on Greek lore and such and despite Chiron telling her ,"Some things are beyond the realm of possibility Ms.Dare." She would always believe in her own eyes, in what she saw for the sake of all the times she had not and how it had cost her. She had been afraid, she had been shaking, and she had been crying which always happened after a violent vision but this time it wasn't the vision that set it off. The raw fear and worry gripping her heart was not for herself but all for Perseus Jackson. The things he went through, his screams, his desperation, how close he had come to death, the heart wrenching way his face had contorted when he saw Annabeth's horrified face. She hadn't been able to shake it off, not the tears nor the shivering. Until she couldn’t stop the urge to talk to him. I saw it, she had texted him, her fingers shaky knowing she couldn't trust herself to speak. It hadn't stopped until his reply a few long moments after , which had felt like forever then. Montauk. I will pick you up. 

 Now here they were, with her drawing the most inane things and him keeping the sand in place for her. She had always loved that. The way he cherished all her drawings and her words,  prophetic or otherwise. She could see him warring with himself, his powers growing stronger than ever; the reason why they were at the sea. She could wait for him to be ready, to be okay with having this conversation, she didn't want to push him, she never would. She was alright even if they didn't speak a word of it and instead spent the whole day here, like this, at peace.

He must have been resigned to having this talk because his voice turned soft as he asked, "What did you see, Red?" Her heart did the little dance it always did when he called her that . For all his love of the color blue he had ways said called her Red softly and fondly. She wished she could have controlled herself better, stopped the tears threatening to spill as she muttered just as softly,  "Everything." She managed to choke out. Now they would talk in fears and in truths and a litany of promises, of assurances which would have to be enough.

"Why are you here then?" Why are you not running away in fear, in horror like they all do.

Labored breaths mingled with wavering voices.

"Where else is there to go? And I wanted to be here." Where could I go but to you who knows all of me and who I know all of. I am not afraid. I want to be here, Perce. 

Choked tears, heavy voices, with emotions and impulses.

"I am not okay. I will never be okay ever again, Red ."  I am a monster now, and I will always be a monster.

Waves thrashed as the sea churned on itself. 

"You don't have to be okay. You just need to be alive, to be willing to live. It will get better  because you have to make it better. Everyone else is like that too, Perce."   You are not a monster, you are human, the best of humans. If you are the monster, then the world is hell, full of devils. But you are not. It's alright and it will be okay. You have to believe it will, with me, with everyone else. 

Calm words, a chant, a prophecy.

"You saw it all, you know what I did, how I enjoyed it, Rach. Don’t defend me." I know what I am, you don't have to fool yourself into believing something else, Red.

The sea raged and raged. 

"It was hell, you were in hell, you were going through the worst of situations, you were going to die, Annabeth was going to die, you were being tortured. Of course you were happy to get the upper hand. You didn't cross some line, Percy, Perseus, you held back infact. You showed mercy." You gave everything to save Annabeth, to save everyone. You have given so much too much and you are still so good.

The waves toppled over one another.  Strongly then, slowly.

Sea green eyes finally met emerald ones. A look full of nothing and everything as long left unsaid words beat against each other, the waves of the sea matching the pace. 

Her words, fears bared for him to see, as his own were.

"You should be the one angry, I couldn't help you, I couldn't help anyone, save anyone."  Rachel was the one who had been useless through all of it. All she had done was deliver a message Annabeth had sent and worry and worry and worry about Percy,  the camp and the fate of the world.  The gift broke down when they needed it the most and she had tried and tried to will it to work, to start. She had started with prayers to Apollo and then ended with curses.

"That's not true, Red. You told Reyna what she needed to do to unite the camps, to face Gaea. You delivered the message. In a way your prophecy saved us all, Red." Percy was sure they couldn't have made it without Rachel, they never did when it came to great prophecies. And deep down he couldn't help the relief that she hadn't been roped into a fight or a quest. She had sacrificed enough already. 

The waves thrashed once, twice, thrice more before dissolving into a harmonic calm.

PERCY

That was how he had found himself kissing Rachel.Overwhelmed and high on emotions, the both of them. He would have said more, thought this through, but he couldn't think with her soft lips moving against his own.

He relished in the familiar  warmth of it and he didn't want to let go.

Sloppy makeout, sand drawings and surfing, both of them together, happy and relaxed for the first time in a long time. That's how the day had gone and Percy couldn't help but be giddy about this, about them. It was one of the best and happiest days he had ever had and maybe he was wrong about never being okay; he had a feeling with Rachel by his side along with his family, both mortal and godly, he would be okay,  eventually. He had to be.

As Percy took Rachel back to the car, both of them looked back and he was sure they had the same hunch, the same shared feeling: There would be trouble ahead with newer prophecies,  with Gods, and they both had a lot of explaining to do to his family, to her family, to a probably human Apollo but  it could all wait a little while longer,  a bit more till there were no words left unsaid.

Rachel was easier to talk to than other girls

"She looks like a million drachmas"

..........................................................................................

Percy and Rachel were riding their bicycles trough the streets during a sunny day. Rachel was wearing a blue blouse and short jeans and Percy was wearing a blue t-shirt and blue shorts. Both were looking at the place around them and smiling at each other. They stop and let their bicycles next to a tent on the beach. They buy some french fries and a coconut water. They get two straws and take their food and their drink and sit on a table. They eat their fries and drink the coconut water with a straw for each one. They continue smiling and staring at each other. Then, Rachel stares at the beach. Percy eats another fry and notices Rachel staring at the beach. He laughs and smiles.

"What?" Percy asks while he laughs a little bit at Rachel's behavior. Rachel turns to look at him and sighs happy: "The weather today is pretty good, don't you think?" "Well, i guess you could say that" Percy says and sees Rachel glancing at him and at the beach. He gets what she was about to do. So, both stand at the same time and run towards the sea and they take their blouse and shirt off. Both are laughing pretty hard while they are competing with each other. They arrive in the sea. But, Percy hugs Rachel from behind to stop her from winning and they end up falling into the water. Under the water, Percy's arms are still around Rachel and they just smile and look at each other. At that time, while staring at each other's eyes, they felt as one, like nothing matters and the world only had them in it. Together, they became one person. Their faces unconsciously get closer while Percy and Rachel were still lost at each other's eyes and mouths. So, they just give in to the moment and let their bodies speak for themselves. Percy and Rachel close their eyes and kiss each other. The kiss started as something calm and became desperate later like they couldn't get enough of each other. Rachel puts her hands on Percy's face and Percy has his arms wrapped around Rachel's waist. They kiss for some time and they separate because Percy knew Rachel needed air. So, he just looks up and motions with his eyes for them to get out of the water. Rachel smiles at him, understanding his message. She swims to the surface and Percy follows after her.

However the game wasn't finished yet, so Rachel just swims as fast as she can while Percy tries to reach her. She laughs pretty hard and gets on the sand first. She turns to look at Percy and smiles at him, who was still getting out of the water. He smiles at her and puts his hands on his waist. "You won, beautiful artist". "Oh, come on! You weren't so bad either. Almost got me". Rachel laughs and it makes Percy happy to hear this. Percy doesn't understand, but somehow Rachel makes him feel things that he never felt before. He can't explain what it was. Percy knows that he still gets amazed by her personality. It's totally different from the other girls he met before. Rachel was special, but how...he would need to discover it by himself later. Now, it was the time to forget everything and just relax and have some fun. "It looks you had a great fun" Percy says and walks towards Rachel, who was sitting on the sand with her legs up and close to her chest while she stares at the sea in front of her. Percy sits down next to Rachel and stares at her, waiting for her answer. "Yeah, i guess". Rachel says while she looks up at the sky, closes her eyes, puts her hands behind her neck and just feels the light from the sun hitting her skin.

Percy notices that something was bothering Rachel and frowns. "What is going on?" Percy asks. Rachel only opens one eye to look at him and closes it again. "I don't know what you are getting at" Rachel says with a forced smile. "Rachel, i know you. So, you better tell me what is bothering you. You know i don't like lies" Percy says serious. Rachel sighs and opens her eyes. She takes her hands off her neck and looks at Percy. "Okay" Rachel says. "Well?" Percy asks. "I still don't get what you saw in me, really. I'm not strong like you, intelligent like Annabeth or pretty like Piper. You guys are pretty awesome with your powers and everything more...while me...i'm just an ordinary girl that has visions. Nothing more" Rachel says sad while she looks away. "That's the stupidest thing i've ever heard" Percy says. Rachel frowns at that and stares at Percy. "What?" Rachel asks confused. "You heard what i said" Percy says serious. Rachel's eyes start getting wet and she stands up. "I knew it, i knew it" Rachel says while taking the sand off her clothes. Percy frowns at her, not understanding what she is doing. "You also think i'm stupid, i knew it" Rachel says sad and walks away. Percy gets up and runs after Rachel. He gets her arm and turns her around to face him. He could see her eyes getting wet. He puts his hand on her face to wipe a tear that was falling on her cheek. 

"Rachel, please, don't ever say that to me again. You have no ideia how you helped me all these years to gain my self esteem back after everything that happened. You showed me that i could still have some fun in life despite it being totally fucked up. You always saw me as the guy you met and saved your life...you helped me without even knowing me. You saw Sally Jackson's son. You saw me for who i was and not what i was... like many other girls did. Who cares that you may not be considered intelligent like Annabeth or pretty like Piper? Because let me tell you something...you are very smart and courageous. You used a helicopter by yourself without being a professional. What "normal girl" would do something like that? You were always very beautiful to me, you know? Even when i was with Annabeth, i felt more comfortable with you than with any other girl. You are very nice and funny too. Your smile makes me happy. Sometimes, you also helped me to balance my two lifes. Even though you know i hate the demigod life, you always remind me of the reason that i fight and that i would never leave a loved one behind. You trust me Rachel and this is what matters to me in the end. You know my limits. This way, you know exactly when to interfere and when to not. I'm so grateful to meet a girl like you" Percy says and touches his forehead to Rachel's. "Oh, Percy...i don't know what to say..." Rachel says. "So, don't say anything" Percy says and steps away a little bit to look at Rachel's face and puts his hand on her cheek again. "I didn't know you felt this way about me." Rachel says almost crying. Percy hugs Rachel and she puts her face on his shoulder. "You took my pain, let me take yours now" Percy says and Rachel starts crying pretty hard. Percy puts his hand behind Rachel's head caressing it. "It's okay to not be strong all the time. You taught me that, remember? You even threatened to take away all my blue cupcakes" Percy says and laughs a little trying to light Rachel's mood. It works. Rachel steps away from Percy and cleans her cheeks with her hands. "Yeah" Rachel says and gives a little smile to Percy. Percy smiles at her too and puts a hand on her cheek. "Anytime something bothers you again, promise to tell me?" Percy asks and Rachel takes some time to only stare at him, then she nods her head and Percy smiles. 

Rachel smiles back at him. They walk together to come back to their table, but Percy notices that Rachel stopped following him. He looks behind to see Rachel standing with a sad expression on her face while she looks at the sand. Percy sighs and walks towards her. He stops in front of Rachel and puts a hand on her shoulder. "Rachel, what is it? Tell me." Percy says and Rachel only looks away. "Rachel, you promised." Percy says while he puts his hands on his waist. Rachel lifts her head up and stares at Percy with her eyes still a little wet. "I don't want it to be a thing like the last time. I don't want to be a second choice to replace Annabeth anymore." Rachel says almost crying again. Percy takes his hands off his waist and puts them on her face. "No, no. You were never a second choice, Rachel." Percy says desperate wanting Rachel to believe him.

"What?" Rachel asks confused. "That's what you heard. At that time, i was confused by my feelings. I ended up flirting with many girls behind Annabeth's back. Annabeth and I....we never had a good relationship, you know? We just stayed together because we only saw the other as something to keep away our loneliness. It wasn't love...it was more like an infatuation. That's why we were so addicted with each other. When you really love someone, you let the person go because you care about the person's feelings. We never did that. We were pretty selfish and it just brought the worst in each other. When we finished College, we finally noticed that we didn't have anything in common and that what we had was never real. We always felt more comfortable with other people than with each other and that's okay. Everyone can feel more tuned to some people, but with others not. It was our choice. We are still friends, just not that close like we used to be. She moved on with her life and i moved on with mine. So, don't ever say that, please. I went to see a therapist and she helped me to realise my feelings. I learned that when you really love someone else, you feel comfortable with the person and when she is gone, it's like the light leaves you and you stay in the dark completely drown in your shadows and fears. When you love someone, you don't get scared of the person leaving you because you know the person will always come back to you. When you love someone else, you trust the person.  When you love someone else, you  care a lot about the person. You want to take care of the person's wounds and help the person with anything, being a friend or not, even if you have to watch out for the person from the shadows. When you love someone, the person is the first one that comes to your mind....and that person to me is you. I wasn't ready to say this before because i was just a boy with confused emotions, but now i can say this pretty clear." Percy says serious while he stares at Rachel. "I love you, Rachel Elizabeth Dare."

Rachel gets shocked because she wasn't expecting that. So she just kisses Percy with a lot of passion. They kiss for some time. Both pull apart with their foreheads touching and their eyes staring at each other with big smiles on their faces. "And I love you, Sally Jackson's son" Rachel says and both smile feeling the other's breath. "Did you know the name Rachel means the one with purity? Percy asks with a smile while he stares at Rachel. Rachel only shakes her head. "Did you know that Percy means the one who pierces the Valley?" Rachel asks and Percy nods his head. Rachel steps away and puts her arms around Percy's neck. "You are very smart, Perseus. Or should I say Percy Jackson?" Rachel asks and both laugh a little bit. "Did you google it?" Percy asks with a devilish smile. Rachel only laughs and nods her head while Percy gives her a smirk. Then, Rachel frowns and Percy does too and even raises his eyebrow at her, expecting Rachel to tell him. Rachel looks away.

"But, could it work? I mean...I'm an oracle..." Rachel says a little insecure. Percy uses his finger to turn Rachel's head to his direction, so that she could look at him. "It doesn't matter, okay? Even if you were a goddess or a monster, i still wouldn't give up on you. Did you forget? My biggest flaw is loyalty." Percy jokes and both laugh. 

"Hey guys, you forgot your orders here." The waitress yells from the tent. "Thanks, we are already coming back." Rachel yells to the waitress, who just nods her head. "So, what do you say we finish our date here in the beach and then we can have a picnic in the forest next to a river and watch the sunset? At night we could go to the movies or to a restaurant. What do you think? Percy asks and Rachel smiles. "You're so on" Rachel says and walks away. "Hey, aren't you forgetting something?" Percy asks and Rachel looks confused. Then, she notices their blouse and shirt on the sand and go to take them. She puts hers and throws the shirt to Percy, who catches it with his hand and sighs. Rachel sees this and gives him a kiss and then runs away while she yells to Percy. "The last to arrive will have to buy the popcorn, Smart Sea Brain" Rachel says and both laugh. 

This girl still doesn't know, but i own my life to her. She literally saved me from a big depression. I wanted to die before, but now...i want to spend the rest of my life with that beautiful artist. She really looks like a million drachmas...i just hope they never end. Percy thinks while he smiles watching Rachel running. Then, he just shakes his head and runs after his new girlfriend.

Are there any like rules around what type of content we’re allowed to do in our works?

Hi Anon!!

Yes. The main ones are 1. no Percy and/or Rachel bashing and 2. any nsfw content should be properly labeled and if posted on tumblr - hidden under a "readmore," because this event is for all ages.

That's about it!! The bingo prompts are a good place to start but if you end up going in a different direction with your fanwork that's fine! The purpose of this event is to get more Percy and Rachel content.

Also any type of fanwork is allowed - fanfics, fanart, moodboards, anything that's fan made/compiled.

Hope this helps.

More than 5 people said they'd use the server, so here it is!!

In light of the event coming up very soon, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a writing server for Percy and Rachel events?

It would basically be a space to talk about ideas, encourage each other in the last few weeks/days before the event. And discuss the fics/art made for the event.
