If Percy gives Hera the master bolt, their relationship could shift from one of mutual distrust to a more nuanced dynamic. Hera might become more protective of Percy as he has shown her a great deal of trust by giving her the bolt. Percy, in turn, would have to navigate the new power dynamic. He might find himself in the middle of Hera's schemes more often, as she now has a significant advantage with the master bolt. And he'd have to be careful not to cross her, while also trying to make sure she uses the bolt for the right reasons.
Well, initially, Hera would be quite shocked that Percy, a mere demigod, would hand over the master bolt to her. This could lead to a newfound respect from Hera towards Percy. However, as time goes on, the power of the bolt might corrupt Hera's view of Percy. She could start to see him as a means to an end in her quest for more power among the gods. Percy would then have to fight to regain her respect and trust. He'd have to remind her of his selfless act and try to ensure that she doesn't misuse the bolt. This would create a very tense and ever - changing relationship between them.
One possible plot could be that Percy, in an act of trying to prevent a war among the gods, decides to give Hera the master bolt. He might believe that Hera, as the queen of the gods, could be the most neutral party to hold it. This could lead to a series of events where other gods are either enraged or intrigued by his decision. For example, Zeus might see it as a direct challenge to his authority, while Athena might see it as a strategic move. Percy would then have to deal with the fallout of his actions, facing challenges from various mythological creatures sent by the angry gods and also trying to convince the other demigods that his move was for the greater good.
The relationship can start with mutual distrust. Percy has seen Hera's manipulative side before, and Hera might not fully trust Percy at first. But then, they could be forced to work together on a task. For example, saving a group of demigods from a powerful enemy. As they face challenges side by side, they begin to respect each other's abilities. Percy realizes that Hera has her reasons for her actions, and Hera sees Percy's courage and loyalty.
His relationship with Annabeth could become strained. Annabeth might be distrustful of Hera's intentions, and since Percy is now under Hera's influence, she could be worried that Percy will be turned against their friends. For example, Hera might try to keep Percy away from Camp Half - Blood, which would make Annabeth angry.
A slow - burning friendship could be developed through shared experiences. Maybe they are both trapped in a strange magical realm for a while. During that time, they have to rely on each other to survive. Hera could use her powers in ways Percy has never seen before to protect them, and Percy could use his quick thinking and demigod abilities to find food and shelter. This shared struggle would bring them closer together.
In this fanfiction genre, their relationship can be developed through shared goals. For example, if there is a threat to the balance of the world, they can work together towards resolving it. Hera might initially be cold and distant, but as they face challenges side by side, she could start to warm up to Percy. Another way is through mutual respect. Percy can show respect for Hera's power and wisdom, and in return, Hera can come to respect Percy's courage and determination.
When it comes to his relationship with Hera herself, it would be complex. At first, Percy might be resentful or confused about being adopted by her. But as time goes on, he might start to understand her in a way no one else does. Hera could start to see Percy as a true son, and this could lead to a deep, if somewhat unusual, bond between them. Percy would have to balance this new relationship with his existing ones, and it could lead to some really interesting character development and story arcs.
Percy's relationship with the other campers at Camp Half - Blood would be a rollercoaster. The children of Poseidon might feel a bit betrayed or confused, as they thought Percy was one of their own. However, Percy could use his new status to bridge gaps between different cabins. For example, he could work with the children of Aphrodite to improve relationships in the camp, since Hera has some connection to love and relationships in a different way than Aphrodite. With the gods, his relationship with Zeus would be extremely strained, given Zeus's past issues with Hera. But he might find new allies among the gods who are friendly with Hera, like Hephaestus. Overall, Percy's relationships would be a mix of challenges and new opportunities.
Their relationship could become more intense. The hickeys might be a sign that they are moving to a more physical and passionate stage. Percy might become more protective of Annabeth as well, seeing how she's so openly showing her affection in this way.
Their relationship could develop slowly. At first, Percy would be very wary of Hera due to her past actions and reputation. But as they are forced to interact more, for example, if they are on a joint mission, Percy might start to see that there is more to Hera than just the cold and calculating goddess. Hera, on the other hand, might start to respect Percy's courage and loyalty.
In a 'pregnant' fanfiction, their relationship would become more complex. There would be new layers of love and responsibility. They would start to see each other in a different light, not just as friends or fellow demigods. Percy might see Thalia as the mother of his child, and Thalia would see Percy as the father. This new perspective would bring out different aspects of their personalities. For example, Percy might show a more nurturing side, and Thalia might become more patient. Their relationship would be tested by the challenges of pregnancy, but also strengthened as they face them together.
