"i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this." for Tally Carmichael?? 🖤🖤🖤

Oooo, I know what to do with this one!

i gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this + Tally Carmichael

“Percy, what the HELL are you doing here?!”

The smile that was on Percy Jackson’s face dropped at the sight of the unhappy faces he came upon. It had been weeks since he had heard from Tally, and though he knew that she needed space after their breakup, Percy was worried. Even though they weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend anymore, Tally was still one of his closest friends.

But, right now, Tally wasn’t very happy to see him.

Neither were her friends to be honest, maybe with the exception of the redhead who was staring him down appraisingly. Percy immediately recognized Scott McCall, Stiles Stilinski, and Erica Reyes from the last time he visited Beacon Hills, and all three of them were giving him the death glare. There was a dark-haired girl with pale skin who was also giving him the death glare as well, and a douchey-looking guy who looked at him like he didn’t give a damn who he was.

Okay, maybe he should’ve listened to Annabeth and not come…

“I was worried about you,” admitted Percy. “We haven’t talked in awhile, and you haven’t answered any of my texts…”

“Maybe because she didn’t want to talk you, had you thought about that?” said the brunette. Her eyes were glaring daggers at him, and it made Percy seriously worry that she was going to chop off certain parts of his anatomy.

Erica furiously nodded in agreement with the brunette. “You really are living up to that moniker of yours, aren’t you Jackson?”

“Hey!” butted in the douchey-looking guy, looking angrily over at the blonde. “What moniker? I don’t have a moniker!”

“Not you Whittemore!” she snapped at him.

“Guys!”

All heads turned towards Tally, who was glaring at everyone and her bright red hair was somehow moving on its own, making it look like blazing fire. “I’m going to talk to Percy alone, so don’t even think about listening in or I will cut you. I’m talking to you, Whittemore!”

Whittemore rolled his eyes at that, but the brunette grabbed both his and the redhead’s hands to pull them both over to the chalkboard while Erica did the same with Scott and Stiles.

Once she made sure that everyone wasn’t listening in, Tally turned back to Percy and the disapproval that was on her face when seeing him come into the classroom faded into resignation. “Okay Percy, be honest. Why are you really here?”

Percy felt his blood run hot in indignation. Does she seriously not believe that he was worried about her?

“I was honest! I was worried about you when you weren’t answering my texts and calls!”

“Goddamn it Percy, I told you that I needed space! I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this relationship, and all I got in return was you falling for another girl!”

That made Percy shut his mouth, the guilt he had been feeling since they broke up coming back tenfold. “I’m sorry, I know that you wanted space. But Tally, you have to understand that you’re one of my closest friends. I felt like I was losing you as a friend, and I didn’t want that to happen!”

A sob bubbled its way up Tally’s throat, because Percy was one of her closest friends as well and she didn’t want to lose their friendship either. “I don’t want that to happen either, but to preserve our friendship, you have to let me go. Please let me go, Percy.”

The look on his face was so sad, it was like he finally realized that this was the end for them. “Is that what you want?”

She nodded, and this time, it was his turn to feel resignation. The only thing Percy could think of to do was to pull her into him and hug her tightly. She hugged him back, and both felt their hearts cracking because they knew.

They knew this was the end of them.

[luucypevensie]

🐰 + sweet Tally!!

OH HELL YES, MY WITCHY DEMIGOD CHILD! THANK YOU FAE, MY BELOVED!

1. Their berserk button: Tally gets REALLY incensed if someone steps on her feet too many times. I mean, once was fine, but three times? That’s incredibly painful!

2. Why their name was chosen: Mark, Tally’s father, grew up near Tallulah Falls, Georgia with the pack his mother was the emissary for. He thought the name was lovely, and that it would be a good name for a girl whenever he decided to get married and have kids. Flash forward when Hecate had a baby girl, and he suggested Tallulah. Hecate loved it so much, she was even the one to come up with the nickname Tally

3. Their favorite 2020s song: happiness by Taylor Swift

4. Their biggest fear: That she will always be cursed to love someone who doesn’t love her back (luckily, that is NOT the case with our lord and savior, Scott McCall)

5. One turn-on of theirs: Inner Strength

6. Their go-to sleepover activities: Lots of karaoke sessions to Taylor Swift and Broadway classics for one, plus snacking on Cherry Pull-n-Peel Twizzlers

7. What candle they’d get at Bath & Body Works: Definitely one of the fall scented ones, like Sweet Cinnamon Pumpkin, because fall is Tally’s favorite season

8. A moment where they reached their breaking point: When Tally found out that Aiden was a member of the Alpha pack, and was just using her to get to Scott, never had she ever felt so angry and heartbroken. Percy didn’t mean to hurt her when they broke up, but Aiden was deliberately trying to, and it made Tally feel like she was nothing

9. Whether they’re organized or slobby: Tally leans more on the organized side, but it’s not a huge priority for her

10. Their favorite feature about themselves: Her hair

89!

Hmmm… this one I am not sure about.

I think this one maybe feels like a Tally and Scott song. The lyrics talk about loving someone so much that whenever they’re near, you feel the shivers. That reminds me of Tally’s love for Scott and how much she looks forward to being near him everyday.

🎬 for tally?

MY BABY! I haven’t thought about Tally in a hot sec, LET’S DO THIS SHIT MARA!

How they’d be introduced

Tally’s first scene is when she and Erica are having a sleepover at her house, and Scott and Stiles come over to tell them about the dead body. It’s when they really set up the sister bond the girls have, and also how close they are with the boys too.

Who the fandom ships them with

Scott, for sure. The fandom would love the strong friendship the two of them have, and how supportive they are of one another. I honestly could also see the fandom shipping Tally with Allison or Erica for the same reasons as well.

Why the fandom loves them

Her fierce loyalty to her family and friends. Like Scott and Percy, Tally would do anything for them and their happiness, and I think that the fandom would really respect her for that.

Why the fandom hates them

How much of a bitch she is to Lydia. She is the fan favorite after Stiles, and I think that the fandom (particularly the St*dia shippers) would get really rankled by that. Hence, the shit dropping happens.

What is the cast relationship like

Abby would be so cute with Tyler P; I can see the two of them having inside jokes with one another and just having this adorable brother/sister relationship. I think she and Gage would be so awesome together, where they would gush about their friendship on the show and in real life too.

Their audition scene

I think Abby would audition with Tally’s introduction scene with Allison and Erica, where the girls offer their friendship to Ally before Lydia and Jackson come over.

Who they’d be paired with for interviews

Tyler P, Gage, and probably Crystal. Major laughter alert!

If they spoil things

I don’t think so; Abby doesn’t seem like the person to spoil things.

Are they happy with their character’s ending

Uh… HELL YES! Scott and Tally are endgame, and while people might be a little unhappy at how long it took for them to get together, it does happen and everyone will rejoice!

💋+ tally!!

Okay, so I’m going to do Scott and Tally because they’re OTP!

So, it is a night where Scott and Tally are walking home together, but Tally is angry at Scott for trusting Theo. They are arguing over him, and Scott’s trying to get her to stay. However, she is having none of it.

Finally, Tally gets so fed up that she screams at Scott that she loves him. Scott is so overjoyed, and the two of them decide to go for it with a relationship. They seal the deal with a sweet kiss that has Tally’s insides melting

Tally and Laurel role swap AU?

Okay, I’m excited for this one!!

Okay, let’s start with Tally

She grew up as a werewolf/witch hybrid in Salem with her werewolf father (who is the alpha of the pack) and her witch mother (who also acts as a part-time emissary)

However, there was a coup led by her father’s most trusted beta, which led to her mother’s death

Tally was devastated (as she and her mother were very close)

With nowhere else to go, Mark (Tally’s father) asks Talia if he and his daughter could come to Beacon Hills for protection

Talia, of course, let them come and Mark became one of her most trusted allies

Upon the move, Tally still became best friends with Erica, Scott, and Stiles

She also only trusted Erica with the secret of who she was

But then, the Hale fire happened

Mark and Tally weren’t there, but they knew that hunters were near by and kept on their guard

Cut to TW canon and everything still happens pretty similarly to Tally’s original AU

Moving on to Laurel

She is the daughter of Hecate, who is actually also Artemis’ champion

She doesn’t like plants as much as one of best friends does (Katie is a daughter of Persephone in this AU), but she still likes to learn about herbs and their properties

Felicia is a daughter of Hephaestus (due to her proclivity to fire), and Laurel’s little brother Jake is actually a Roman son of Trivia

Their father is in Witness Protection for witnessing a murder done by a local gang, so they still live with their aunt Molly in Beacon Hills

Laurel’s story in this AU is pretty much the same too except she’s friends with most of the Puppy Pack earlier

[luucypevensie]

I would love to know more about Tally if you have anything you want to share!

Um… OF COURSE!!

Tallulah “Tally” Carmichael is a daughter of Hecate who was born in Beacon Hills

Her father is a doctor at Beacon Hills Hospital, while her aunt is a deputy and her uncle is a lawyer

She starts going to Camp Half-Blood when she’s around 9 or 10

Percy was her boyfriend up until the end of TLO

When hearing about the breakup, Erica and Stiles extensively planned out his murder

She has two best friends from camp who become part of the McCall pack: Phoebe, daughter of Apollo, and Luna, daughter of Aphrodite

Erica and Tally have been best friends since preschool

Allison becomes the third member of their trio in s1

Tally’s magic is EXTREMELY powerful

She is probably the most powerful out of her siblings

She has a little book filled with all of her spells and potions that she has made

Theatre is her passion; catch her doing everything in any performance from acting to costumes

Tally cannot LIVE without sugared coffee; it is her lifeline

She has a black cat named Nixie, who hates any boy she’s dated except Scott (she LOVES Scott)

Scott is Tally’s endgame ❤️

[luucypevensie]

tally for the notebook ask?

Alright, I’m going to stick with the McCall Pack, as well as Phoebe and Luna, for now!

Scott: I don’t know what I would do without Scott in my life. He’s been there for me for many things, from my first theatre performance to my breakup with Percy. He makes me feel like I can do anything, and his eyes are really nice too. I also love his smile, and how it lights up the room… HOLY SHIT, I THINK I’M IN LOVE WITH SCOTT!!

Stiles: Mr. Spazzy McGee! The fact that he and Erica in hard detail planned out Percy’s murder after our breakup was… I’ll admit, a titch scary, but also meant a lot to me. I just wish Stiles would get his head out of Martin’s ass and notice how much Erica likes him!

Erica: MY QUEEN! The Kara to my Barbara, Erica has been by my side since we were tiny kids in preschool. I don’t care that she has epilepsy, I love the fact that she is one sassy girl, that she loves comics, and has kept my secret since I told her about it. If I lost Erica, I don’t know what I would do.

Allison: AN ANGEL SENT FROM HEAVEN! The literal embodiment of Snow White, it felt like a missing piece of me just clicked into place when Ally moved to BH. I love that, while sweet, she also is a badass and is not afraid to stand up to people when they’re being assholes (*cough Martin and Whittemore cough*). Ally Argent is amazing!

Phoebe: THE STELLA TO MY BLOOM! Phoebe is literally the light of my life: she took me underneath her wing when I first arrived from camp, and she always made sure I was doing okay after my breakup with Percy. She’s like the sister I never had, and I’m so grateful for her.

Boyd: BOYD IS OUR ROCK!! He is just such a steady presence, and he’s so good at helping me keep calm and focused. I think Phoebe had a massive crush on him when I first introduced them. To be honest, they would be really cute together! They’re literally the definition of tol and smol!

Luna: FEARLESS AND UNSTOPPABLE! Luna is just so cool; I love that she was so different from the rest of the Aphrodite cabin. She cares more about science and fighting than clothes and makeup, and I love her for that.

Cora: I don’t remember Cora much from when we were younger, but who she is now is AWESOME! She doesn’t take any shit from anyone, and will stand up for what she thinks is right. No matter what anyone else says. Maybe that’s why I keep on seeing Luna staring at her when she thinks no one else is looking.

Isaac: ISAAC LAHEY DESERVES BETTER! Seriously, I wanted Nico to bring his sorry ass father back from the dead so I can murder him again. I do enjoy that dry sarcasm of his, and I know he’s going to go on to do great things. But, WHY DOES HE HAVE TO LIKE MARTIN TOO?!

Lydia: Ugh, I have so many issues with this one. I am not a fan of her attitude, and the fact that she dumbs herself down for someone like WHITTEMORE?! I’m disgusted. Plus, there’s the fact that she treated Erica horribly. That is unforgivable… okay, maybe Martin is not as bad as I thought. But, she still has a long way to go to earn points in my book.

Derek: He needs to lighten up a bit, but I think Derek does have his heart in the right place. Also, it’s despicable what happened to him at the hands of Ally’s aunt. I really hope he goes to therapy, I think he really needs it… Huh, I should introduce him to Reyna, maybe she would be able to whip him to shape!

Jackson: An absolute dick. That’s all that needs to be said.

Danny: DANNY IS AMAZING AND DESERVES THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE! I’m pretty sure he knows about the supernatural (and I’m pretty sure Whittemore was the one who told him), but I hope he just has the best life!

Ethan: He’s not that bad, but Ethan really needs to redeem himself if he thinks he even has A SHOT with Danny.

Aiden: I hate him; he broke my heart.

🖤for Tally!

So, I don’t think Tally would get a tattoo until maybe when she’s in college. She’s at her dream school, studying for her dream vocation, and she knows that Scott is her endgame.

I could see her getting the lyrics to long story short tattooed under her ribcage, close to her heart because that’s the song Tally associates her and Scott with. She would want to keep him close, so she knows that he’s always there.

The chosen lyrics would be

and he’s passing by, rare as a glimmer of a comet in the sky

and he feels like home, if the shoe fits, walk in it everywhere you go

hc to know them better for tally!

Tally’s really close with Nico since Hecate and Hades are linked in mythology through Persephone. After Erica died, and hearing how badly Tally was doing, Nico went to the Underworld to find her.

He actually found Erica in a similar manner to how he found Hazel. With that, Nico brought her back to her body and Erica was brought back to life. Tally tackled him with the biggest hug imaginable when he brought her to the McCall Pack

happiness

Hello everyone! I have another drabble for you featuring Tally. This time, it’s about her and Percy Jackson as I felt that it was time to feature their relationship and how important it is for Tally’s story. Hope you enjoy!

“Hey, can we talk?”

Feeling a dark knot of dread form in her gut, Tally slowly nodded and followed her boyfriend out towards the beaches.

The camp had just finished burning the shrouds of the many campers who died during the battle against Kronos. Since the ceremony with the gods, uneasiness has been Tally’s constant companion as she has sensed something was going to happen later that night.

And that something had to do with her boyfriend, Percy Jackson.

The two of them had been together since she was 12, after saving Annabeth and Artemis from the Titan, Atlas. She sometimes felt like Percy knew her better than she did, and he could say the same about her.

But, after what happened in the Labyrinth, Tally knew that their paths were diverging from one another. As a child of Hecate, she had the unique ability to sense when someone was at a crossroads.

Tally knew that Percy was going down a path that she could not follow.

Once the two of them had settled in the sand, Percy turned towards her. But, before he could even open his mouth, Tally stated,

“You’re breaking up with me, aren’t you?”

Percy flinched, not just in surprise, but also at the matter-of-fact tone her voice was sporting.

“How did you...”

She smiled sadly at him. “I had a feeling. For a while, actually.”

He turned his head down, lost as to what to say to the girl who had stood by him after stopping Luke from killing him so long ago.

Silence stretched on between the two as the waves gently washed upon the shore. It was broken by Tally stating quietly, “It’s Annabeth, isn’t it?”

Percy’s head turned towards her so fast, she might’ve gotten whiplash. “Wha...”

“I knew that she liked you for awhile now, and I knew that you liked her too. But, you fought it because of me.”

“I’m sorry, Tally,” he said quietly. “Please know, though, that I really like you too. No, that’s not right, please know that I did love you too.”

“I know,” she said simply.

The silence raged on once more as they continued watching the water sparkle underneath the night sky, breaking once again as Percy asked her,

“What will you do now?”

Tally shrugged her shoulders. “Go home, be with my family and friends before school starts. Luna and Phoebe might come with me because they’ve been wanting to meet Erica and the boys for years now.”

Percy laughed at that, “Well, tell them I say hi.”

“Oh, don’t be expecting niceties from them. When she hears the news, Erica’s going to drop kick your ass all the way to Europe. Stiles will probably help her.”

They both giggled at that mental image. It died away, however, as their faces turned back towards one another. Giving him a morose smile, Tally gave Percy a kiss on the check.

“Goodbye Percy Jackson.”

“Goodbye Tally Carmichael,” he said, a look of grief flashing across his face.

She slowly got up, brushing the bits of sand from her shorts, and started walking back towards camp.

“Tally!”

Turning around, she saw Percy standing up as well, his posture screaming worry.

“Will you be okay?”

Tally contemplated that question before finally saying, “Not right now, but then again, I haven’t met the new me yet. I just know that, eventually, there will be happiness after you.”

There’ll be happiness after you

But there was happiness because of you too

Both of these things can be true

There is happiness
