Could I request Percy and Janice friendship headcanons? :0

THE SIBLINGS THE SIBLINGS THE SIBLINGS THE SIBLINGS-

Keep in mind this is just them in my version of CC not in canon or the common fanon.

When Janice first came to Candle Cove, Percy was actually the first person she met. She'd just woken up on an island and Percy who was out scouting just stumbled across her and panicked because "Oh my god there is a kid here why is there a kid here what do I do with it do I take it home oh god oh jeez oh damn-"

In the beginning, Percy actually wasn't very fond of her as he didn't think a child her age should be on a pirate ship and found her sort of annoying. In the beginning of the series before his character development Percy was quite a bit more selfish in his cowardice so even though she wanted him to like her he wasn't Janice's favorite either (that honor was given to Poppy almost immediately).

It wasn't until Janice and Nathan ended up going with Percy to help scout out an island the crew landed at and got caught up in a small adventure that lead them to meeting Banana King that Percy and Janice really started making a connection and Percy began falling into that protective big brother role.

Janice is naive, extremely curious, and despite being unsure of herself is always hungry for fun and adventure, so she's bound to get herself into trouble, and Percy is often the one having to force his fear to the side so he can help her out of it. Janice has her fair share of encouraging Percy to push through tough problems despite his fears too. They balance each other out.

I like to think Janice with her curiosity and circumstance actually starts reminding Percy a lot of Thade and their relationship which may be another part of his protectiveness over her.

I actually have an idea where Percy's character development is tied to his skill on the piano and is represented by it over the course of the series. In the early episode "Percy's Piano," he really wants to play like he used to be able to but just can't and is really bad, but as the story goes on every time he makes a milestone in his character arc (becoming more courageous and selfless in spite of his fear and traumas) he goes back to the piano and gets a little better at it, Janice encouraging all the way. The final scene in the final episode of the series, Percy though still not perfect at it, offers to teach Janice a song on it, which is actually a reflection of how he taught Thade to play a song back on the Tarantula Crew.

Percy loves Janice so so much man I don't know what to say that's just a big brother right there.

Janice is super small so keeping up with the rest of the crew leaves her pretty wiped out (tho she'd never admit it) and at the end of the day it wasn't uncommon for Percy to carry Janice on his shoulders when going back to the ship.

Percy has insomnia so he's usually up late, and later in the series Janice basically has a night terror every night (thanks Skin-taker) so because he's always up anyways Janice usually joins him in his hammock and he'll sometimes tell her stories until she falls back asleep.

He lets her wear his coat when it's cold. It too big for her and she loves it.

Percy is the first person ever Janice really told about her guilt over her mother's and friend's deaths and also the first to reassure her that it was never her fault.

Because he's the crew's main scout and navigator, Percy knows a lot about the stars and Janice loves going up with him to the crow's nest so they can gaze at them and Percy can teach her about different constellations and how to find her way around with them.

I like to think later when Janice gets older she and Percy have a matching braid in their hair (also she ends up being a little taller than him which he is NOT fond of).

Percy gladly lets her give him makeup and do his hair.

Throughout the series Janice's main weapon is a trusty little slingshot she shoots sharp rocks from and yeah, Percy gave her that. I'm debating whether to make it so it used to be his when he was young or not.
