Headcanons about my current hyperfixation: THEOO!!☆
I keep stalking the 'theodore nott headcanons' tag so I might as well write my own headcanons about him
Tumblr media
✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩
this man has social anxiety. prove me wrong.
when he was younger he found comfort in reading fiction books, like pjo
he 100% had an obsession with greek mythology, or mythology in general, and it's still kinda there but not like before
then growing up he got into classics
like one day he was like 'what if I read a Dostoevskij book' and that's where it all started
he prefers reading this kind of books because they teach you more
tallest boy you've ever seen, somewhat taller (only by few centimeteres) than Fred and George
he plays the cello, like kind of, he knows how to play a piece only studying it, i believe this man was never able to play a piece at first sight
surprisingly (to him) he really has a lot of things in common with Luna, when he found out he wanted to spend more time with her
he's really silent, but GOD does he ever stop thinking?? his head is loud af
enjoys being with his friends, they're used to him not shouting in their ears (unlike some other boy *cough cough* Mattheo *cough cough ... cough*)and he enjoys their company and they do too
not the type of boy to run to Spotify or whatever music app whenever he can, but he enjoys some kind of music (mostly smooth piano jazz, dramatic classical music since it's my fav, and he thinks TV girl, Lamp, Ichiko Aoba are cool)
never replies quickly, he's always late replying cuz thinks being on his phone is a complete waste of time, but it's not like he's NEVER on it
chill with Halloween but feral over Christmas (does not show it)
legos. I've said all.
YOU CANNOT TELL ME THIS MAN DOESNT HAVE HIS ROOM FULL OF STAR WARS SETS
despite enjoying english and all that kind of subjects, he is feral, and when I say feral I mean feral over maths. He loves learing new concepts because then it all makes sense and it's just so cool (explained from a person who is also feral over maths, pls tell me you get what i mean)
hyperfixations? oh so many
again, greek mythology
you could tell this man "Hey do you know about the myth of Apolloand Daphne" his eyes would light up and he would tell you the myth, his opinion, and related myths ("there's also this other myht with Apollo where he-")
A S T R O L O G Y
still greek mythology related but
he could stay hours talking about constellations
"hey do you know the myth behind the gemini constellation? No? Can I tell you about it?! Okay so-"
paper stars.
if there's a paper stripe around he'd grab it and make a paper star out of it
looks like the typa guy who'd take a lot of pictures with a canon/sony camera
when he feels anxious he'd do this thing where (get ready for the worst explanation ever) he'd put one of his nails of the right hand in between the skin and the nail of his thumb on his left hand and make the nail go left and right, still in between the skin and the nail (I ALWAYS DO THAT I HOPE IT MAKES SENSE I TRIED TO BE AS SPECIFIC AS I COULD)
He tried to go to a party since Blaise, Draco, Enzo, Theo, Pansy (basically everyone you get it)... begged him to come along
we could sum up his experience in one word
NIGHTMARE
The music was too loud, the people were to close to him, everyone was shouting, there were alcohol and drugs (he still wonders how they got literal drugs into the castle), everyone tried to dance with him and talk to him, that time he got overwhelmed tried to leave, but they were all like 'heyyyy nooo dont leaveeeee stay hereeeeee' but his friends understood it wasn't for him and Blaise went with him to his dorm, waited until he felt better then went back to the party
has never been to a party since then
smart af
like he easily surpasses draco and mione
also theo and mione are really close friends, one time they found eachother in the library reading the same book and chatting they found out they have several things in common
has a collection of stylographs, that stays in his library neatly ordinated
best sense of style (he obv got it from Blaise but he made it better)
he loves movies, he's watched movies like Dead Poets Society, Dorian Gray, but also movies about historical facts like The Darkest Hour, The King's Speech, Hidden Figures, The Pianist (I'm a sucker for this kind of movies honestly)
!! HE HAS DIMPLES !!
He loves professor Lupin, he thinks of him as Keating is dps
secretly listens to Micheal Bublè in Christmas, he loves his Christmas songs
he only buys old books, never new ones, he thinks that already used books, from decades ago, he thinks they hold stories, and it's even better when the books have annotations, maybe he'll erase them, but it's good to hear other's opinions
has a lot of vynils
used to study for his dad, now this became a habit, that's why he's the best in class
his relationship with his mom is not strong, MORE
When his mom died he was 5 so he didn't understand
when he finally knew the truth he cried for weeks, then he would occasionally go out to look at the stars, which he always admired with his mom, and cried thinking about her, thinking that she was watching him from up there
when he was like 10 he didn't cry no more, only if he ever opened up
he shared anything with her
he NEVER let ANYONE call him Teddy, he always though that is what his mom called him, and he didn't want other people to 'interfere' with that, he feels like it's their thing
despises horror movies. gets scared to death watching them, and doesnt find the lore interesting
never walks around with only socks on, has the fear of walking on water accidentally and getting his feet wet and the feeling disgustes him
also, has the whole collection of pjo books (every book. from percy jackson and the olympians to the chalice of the gods)
loves cats so much, he has two cats, but he wishes he had more
he has male brown cat named Monet and a grey cat with some beige spots and green eyes (it's mt bsf's cat, I love her - the cat - and I thought she could be a honourable mention) named Vivienne
defo has an obsession with sharks, but is even more obsessed with jellyfish, he knows a lot of scientific names for their species, for exmample Phylloriza Punctata, or Chrisaora Quinquecirrha, or Aurelia Aurelita, he's obsessed
Fav subject isn't potions, it's astronomy instead
since i live for loser!Theo, im in love with the idea of him stuttering in front of a guy/girl he finds cute or attractive, blushing and being awkward
my man absolutely doesn't know how to talk, he speaks too fast, and when ppl tell him to slow down, then he thinks he's talking too slow
if anyone fatshames any of his friends, or is racist/homophobic towards them, or just insults them, he will try to avoid throwing punches, but lets say he'll exchange a word or two with that person
if he's itchy, he scratches so hard there could be blood (a bit exaggerated but you get it)
could've been a Ravenclaw, but if he did his father would be really mad at him, so he's happy he isn't
another headcanon that I kindly stole rn from @heirofs1ytherin is that he's into poetry. LIKE 100% ✮ ⋆ ˚。𖦹 ⋆。°✩ You probably got that I love him HES MY BABY

@cellphonehippie​​’s  album creation edit challenge. //   perseus and andromeda, from jeu de la mythologie (1644), stefano della bella
LOVE SHOULD BE TOUCHED, NOT STRANGLED, is the first concept album by american singers Taylor Swift & Justin Vernon, heavily inspired by Anaïs Mitchell’s Hadestown, the project was release in 2023 and follows a variation of the ancient Greek myht of PERSEUS and ANDROMEDA, with Vernon and Taylor playing the main characters. The album includes collaborations with the Haim sisters, as the FATES, the National frontman, Matt Berninger as ZEUS and Stevie Nicks as Andromeda’s mother, CASSIOPEIA. Together, they tell a tale of hardships, perseverance [against all odds, medusa (son of zeus)], destiny [prophecy] and in true Swifitian fashion, love [beautiful, love, love, love and eight].  The recording of the album was documented in the 2024 film of the same name, an intimate affair in which the duo performs each song of the album, as they reveal the process behing recording each track.
Quote: Learning to let go should be learned before learning to get. Life should be touched, not strangled. You’ve got to relax, let it happen at times, and at others move forward with it. - Ray Bradbury

So I was wacthind the Disney Villians Acapella Medley and
 I got some serious greek gods from the villians , mainly some Olympians like:
Poor unfortunate souls gave me Aphrodite feelings, mostly the line “that one wants to get the girl”  because it remind me of Paris and Pygmalion both who got a girl thanks to Aphrodite, plus the song captures how Aphrodite helped some mortals but sometimes for a price (Paris and Psyche for example) so does she help them? Yes indeed.
Hellfire was straight up a Hephaestus song, when I listen to this song I only imagined the Ares and Aphrodite myht, when the song started I pictured the speech that Hephaesrus gave to the Olympians (mostly to his parents) about how Aphrodite was his since he won her and obviously the whole verse with the fire in my skin was a dead giveaway that this was a song of hephaestus. Another verse that made me think of Hephaestus was “ this burning desire Its driving me to sin” that I could picture as him admitting that he wants to make Aphrodite pay for cheating on him( in the context with the death of Harmonia)
Gaston was a duet between Eris and Ares, Ares in this case being Gaston, you know that Ares loves being called manly and Eris cares tooo much about him to sing this song.
Mother knows best gave me a picture of Demeter singing to Persephone the dangers of the outside world, in the mama bear way that Demeter has.
Friends of the Other side gave me Dionysus vibes, mostly in the myth of Midas like the part “You are changing alright I hope you are satisfied but if you aint dont blame me”  made me picture when Dionysus gave Midas the power of the golden hands but then the verse “ yOU GOT WHAT YOU WANTED BUT LOST WHAT YOU HAD” made me picture the fact that Midas got the riches he wanted but lost the ability to be a normal human.
Sorry about the long post but I wanted to talk about this, also i would love to know what you guys think about this!

Hello! I’ve read the five Percy Jackson and The Olympians books as well as the five Heroes of Olympus books. My question that I was hoping you could help me out with is, what Rick Riordan books should I read next and in what order? I’m not really looking to get into a different series with new characters. I’d prefer to read continuations of the stories involving the characters I already know, but if a book is necessary to understand the plot, I’d read it :) thank you!
Hello! Wow I never expected to get a PJO-relateda ask, I feel like I’m dreaming lol Fair warning, this got long and I have no clue how to add a more below the cut thingy. 😅
The direct sequel series to PJO and HoO is the Trials of Apollo. It’s written in the style of the first five PJO books, but from the POV of Apollo-as-mortal. There are new main characters, but in the second & third books some of the HoO cast return in main roles. The series seems to be tying the loose ends of PJO and HoO (more the last than the first). It’s also still coming out, with the fourth book set to ome out in fall 2019.
For the “main”, I guess, story that’s it. Additional material is to be found in other books, though.
There’s the directly relevant, that is to say things that are actually about the Greek myths & PJO characters:
The Demigod Files, The Demigod Diaries, Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods & Percy Jackson’s Greek Heroes are all collections of short stories. 
The Demigod Files contains three short stories, titled “Percy Jackson and the Stolen Chariot”, “Percy Jackson and the Bronze Dragon”, and “Percy Jackson and the Sword of Hades”, and is set between The Battle of the Labyrinth and The Last Olympian.
The Demigod Diaries has four short stories three of which happen before the start of the Heroes of Olympus (The Diary of Luke Castellan, Percy Jackson and the Staff of Hermes & The Son of Magic), and one that is between The Lost Hero and Mark of Athena (Leo Valdez and the Quest for Buford).
Percy Jackson’s Greek Gods & Percy Jackson’s Greek Heroes both have Percy retelling different myhts. First is about how the 12 Olympians came to be and individual gods’ stories, and the second is about different Greek heroes - Perseus, Daedalus, Theseus, Atalanta, Hercules, etc. Both are written in the style of the first PJO books.
There’s also a guide to Camp Half-Blood, called Camp Half-Blood Confidential. It’s basically a collection of stories told by different demigods and others who live at CHB about day-to-day happenings and the like. There’s a map of camp and all. I don’t think it adds anything particular to the main plot but it is interesting if you want to know more about minor characters and regular non-disastrous happenings at camp. If you read this, I’d recommend reading it after you’ve caught up with Trials of Apollo. There might be spoilers for the series in here.
Additionaly to all of the above, there’s also Rick’s other myths’ series, though they’re less relevant to PJO.
There’s The Kane Chronicles and Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard. They’re both trilogies, where The Kane Chronicles deal with the Egyptian myths & Magnus Chase - with Norse mythology. They’re both in the same universe as PJO, and some events in those books happen simultaneously with HoO and ToA - even though they’re technically standalone, if you decide to give them a shot, I’d rec you read them after ToA.
The Kane Chronicles does its own thing aside from off-hand remarks that make it clear that it’s happening in the same universe as PJO. There are, however, three connected shorts that are a crossover between the two. They were originally published seperately, and then together under the name Demigods and Magicians. It’s basically an exploration of “what happens when mythologies mix”, and it also ties up a loose end from TKC (I think; it’s been a while since I’ve read it). It’s not necessary to get any of the plot, I don’t think it’s even mentioned in the main books, but it is interesting and kinda sorta answers why the gods & heroes of different myths stay away from each other, even though they exist in the same universe and could, theoretically, help each other with the crises that happen in the books.
Now, Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard does, actually, have characters from PJO. Specifically, Annabeth. She has a minor role in all three books, like shows-up-last-chapter-for-a-talk minor. Except for the last book, where she & another PJO character kinda help the main characters in the beginning of the book (but that goes into spoiler territory). If you decide to read this series, be aware that it’s happening at the same time as the first Trials of Apollo books and there are spoilers for that, albeit not really big (it kinda reveals the main antagonist of ToA, I think). Aside from off-hand remarks about where Annabeth is, MCGA isn’t really relevant to ToA though (that might change, but I doubt it).
That’s it! Wow, so long lmao😅 Sorry for infodumping, I get excited about these books. I hope this helped, and if something wasn’t clear please feel free to ask again! 😄

your opinion on greek mythology
Greek mythology is one of my favorites (besides norse) and I think it is very interesting, I even think its an essential to learn greek mythology, because greek myhts has touched everything art, literature, theater. Learning and reading them gives you a new and wide perspective. And it supply you new ideas about what is myth, religion even history.
