It could be depicted as a tumultuous one. Ares is all about war and aggression, while Aphrodite is love and beauty. They might constantly be at odds, yet also drawn to each other. In a Percy Jackson fanfiction, their relationship could be shown through their bickering and secret meetings. For example, Percy might stumble upon them arguing in a hidden grove about whether love or war is more powerful.
The relationship between Aphrodite and Ares in a fanfic can be complex. You can start by showing how they are initially attracted to each other because of their opposing yet complementary powers. Aphrodite's beauty and charm are a contrast to Ares' brute force. As the story progresses, their relationship could be tested by the interference of other gods or by events in the mortal world. For instance, if a mortal war is influenced by both love and war, Aphrodite and Ares might find themselves at odds. However, their underlying feelings for each other keep pulling them back together, creating a relationship full of drama, passion, and growth.
In fanfiction, the relationship could be developed by exploring their family ties. Since Percy is a demigod and Ares is a god, there could be some underlying connection through the divine family tree. Maybe they discover that they are related in a more distant way than they thought. This could lead to Ares having a more protective side towards Percy, or Percy seeing Ares in a less antagonistic light. Also, they could be forced into a situation where they have to communicate their feelings and motives clearly, like being trapped in a magical prison together. This would make them open up and start to build a more complex relationship.
In art, Aphrodite and Ares are often depicted in ways that reflect their relationship. Aphrodite is usually shown as a beautiful, alluring figure, sometimes nude or semi - nude to emphasize her beauty and sensuality. Ares, on the other hand, is depicted as a strong, muscular warrior. When they are shown together, there might be an element of tension or passion. For example, in some sculptures, Ares might be shown reaching out to Aphrodite with a look of desire, while Aphrodite has a coy or receptive expression.
At first, it might be full of awkwardness. Percy, being used to a more down - to - earth kind of relationship, would be a bit overwhelmed by Aphrodite's grandeur. But Aphrodite, with her charm, would try to make Percy feel at ease. As time passes, they could start to understand each other better. Percy might teach Aphrodite about the value of loyalty and friendship from a demigod's perspective, while Aphrodite could show Percy the deeper aspects of love and beauty. Their relationship could grow into a more mutual and loving one, despite the initial differences.
One possible plot could be that Ares and Aphrodite's secret relationship is somehow discovered by Percy and his friends. Percy then has to decide whether to expose them or use this knowledge to his advantage in the ongoing power struggles among the gods. Maybe Aphrodite tries to charm Percy into keeping the secret, while Ares threatens him. This would create a lot of tension and moral dilemmas for Percy.
Canon Percy is mainly influenced by Poseidon, which gives him a certain set of traits like being loyal and having a connection to the sea. But if Percy was the son of Ares and Aphrodite, his personality would be a wild mix. He'd likely be more aggressive like Ares, quick to anger in some situations. However, Aphrodite's influence would also make him more charming and aware of social dynamics. He might be more concerned with appearances and how others perceive him compared to canon Percy.
Their relationship could start off rocky. Since Ares and Poseidon are not exactly buddies, there might be some built - in tension. But as they are forced to work together, they could gradually see each other's good qualities. For instance, Percy might notice the daughter of Ares' loyalty and courage in battle, and she could see Percy's kindness and leadership skills.
It could be depicted as a very intense meeting. Percy, with his sword Riptide, might be on guard when he first sees Shazam flying down. Shazam would be all confident with his lightning bolt emblem. Maybe there would be a stand - off at first.
They would become more united. Having a baby together means they have a shared responsibility. Percy, who is used to being independent, would have to learn to rely on Aphrodite more, and vice versa. Their relationship would likely become more complex as they navigate parenting, which is completely new to both of them in different ways.
Some characters might see it as an opportunity. For the Aphrodite cabin, they would be delighted as it would bring them closer to Percy, who is a powerful and respected demigod. However, characters from other cabins, especially those who have rivalries with the Aphrodite cabin, would be suspicious and might try to break up the relationship. They could think that Aphrodite is using Percy to gain an advantage in the power dynamics among the demigods.
