In a 'Percy Meets Paul' fanfiction, Percy could be a demigod, like in the Percy Jackson series. He has powers related to the Greek gods. Paul, on the other hand, could be a normal human who is very intelligent and curious. Their meeting could be a chance encounter, like Percy accidentally stumbling into Paul's life while on a mission. Or Paul could be someone who has been unknowingly drawn into Percy's world of magic and mystery.
Percy is likely a character who has a lot of knowledge about the gods, perhaps he has had direct interactions with them. Paul, on the other hand, is someone who Percy is sharing this knowledge with, maybe he is new to the whole idea of the gods.
Well, adjustment is a big theme. Paul has to adjust to Percy's life filled with gods and monsters, and Percy has to adjust to having a new father figure. Also, protection. There are often scenarios where they protect each other or their family from threats in Percy's world. For example, in some fanfictions, Paul helps Percy keep his identity a secret from the mortal world while Percy protects Paul from the dangers of the demigod world.
One of the common themes is self - discovery. In many Percy Paul fanfictions, either Percy or Paul, or both, are on a journey to learn more about themselves. For instance, they might discover new powers or hidden talents. Also, the theme of loyalty is often present, showing how they stay loyal to each other in difficult situations. This can be seen in various fanfictions where they face external threats but remain true to their friendship.
Paul could react with disbelief. He might think it's all some sort of elaborate joke or Percy's wild imagination. After all, the idea of demigods and Greek gods being real is quite far - fetched for a normal mortal like him.
Family is also a big theme. Since Paul is in a relationship with Percy's mom, their bond is often about building a family - like connection. They learn to protect and care for each other as family members would.
Well, 'The Bond Between Percy and Paul' is a wonderful fanfiction. It focuses on the relationship development between them. It has a lot of heartwarming moments as Paul tries to understand Percy better and support him. There's also 'Percy and Paul: An Unlikely Friendship' that explores how their friendship forms despite their differences.
One possible plot could be that Percy and Paul meet in a magical forest. Percy is on a quest and Paul, being an ordinary human who has some latent magical abilities he's unaware of, stumbles into Percy's path. Percy initially mistakes Paul for an enemy but then realizes he's just a lost and confused person. They then team up, with Percy teaching Paul about the magical world and Paul using his street - smart knowledge to help Percy navigate through some tricky situations in the mortal part of the forest.
Maybe they have a personal dislike for the character Percy. It could be that they find the fanfiction versions of Percy to be too far from their idea of what the original character should be like.
