just a fun fact annabeth saying "im not leaving the underworld without your mother" with tears in her eyes and water soaking her face and clothes and percy's pen in her hands made me want to die!!
something about Hephaestus saying "you're a good kid, Annabeth" really stands out to me. he didn't point out the very obvious about her, like her intellect and interest in his creations, or her hubris in thinking she could dismantle the chair. he said that she's a good kid. because Hephaestus was mistreated by the gods. because Annabeth was shunned by Athena. because he believes that gods shouldn't treat their own children like that and he wants to be better. because he knows how much it means to a little girl who's fought for approval from her own mother her whole life, whose father neglected her. because he wants to break the cycle. don't touch me
I'm watching the 4th episode right now and I just love how they're already building up Percy's whole "They might be gods but this is a shit way to treat kids. So, fuck you" Like, a 12 year old just lying there awake after a nightmare and discussing this with the smartass girl who he thought would have never befriended him.
And then said smartass girl stating that it's just bow everyone works, not just the gods??? Like, I love how Percy was treated so good that he could say fuck you to the gods but then I also hate how Annabeth just accepted it, because arghhhhhhhh
Demigods who made it into their adult years is a fun concept because I'm just imagining a random son of Athena on his late thirties who's like, a Math teacher or something, watching the news about "the storm that was destroying half the country" and seeing through the mist that that's fucking Typhon and seeing his mom and the other gods fighting him and just. Wondering what the fuck did he miss lol
I have been at that stage for about 3 years now. And it is so scary. Like, it feels like yesterday that I pulled an all-nighter when I 1st found out about shifting just so I can know all about it. And since then, for so long, I have known almost everything. And I have understood it. And now all of it just comes down to me and my sincerity and my discipline and resolve. Like, the flip am I gon do now, bruh?
I’m trying to come to terms with the fact that I don’t need any help to shift.
I don’t need anymore tips, tricks, or methods. I don’t need more subliminals, I don’t need to constantly reprogram my mind, I don’t even need to read over my script anymore because I consciously and unconsciously know it like the back of my hand.
I know what to do, I just have to build the discipline to do it.
It’s all on me.
And that’s terrifying.
THE RECIPROCATION IS HERE, YESSSSS
GUYS ITS HERE. ITS HERE ITS HERE ITS HERE. SHE FINALLY SAID IT. PERCY IS OFFICIALLY SEAWEED BRAIN AGAIN. YESSSSS
Percy "I am SALLY JACKSON'S son" Jackson
percy "i am impertinent" jackson
It's been 7 long years.
The final season of Percy Jackson and the Olympians has just begun to release.
The Ares and Apollo cabins are in a dispute over ownership for the flying chariot.
The counselors sit around a table in the Big House.
Percy has just learned that he's (probably) gonna die in the next month, when Clarisse and Michael begin to bicker. Percy has had it up to here.
He starts clapping rhythmically. There is a lull in the room as they stare at him.
He claps faster.
"Oh golly, the road's getting bumpy, cause I've got me some friends who just can't get along-"
😭🤌🏻
Rereading parts of Queen of Nothing and when Cardan confesses his love and said "you probably guessed that already" really makes me want to read Cardans perspective even more.
Because the more you reread the more you see how much he clearly loves her and started taking his guards down around her.
Like when she came to him when she was released from the Undersea and he just pulled her to bed and held her.
The literal budding and blooming flowers when he said his vows and she said hers.
Fighting tooth and nail when Madoc came for her. Coming to get her and making her promise to be safe when he came for her at the war camp.
Like I could go on. And the entire time Jude was thinking what? He hates her and he is thinking he's wearing his heart on his sleeve and letting his feelings known
“She didn’t need to be saved. She needed to be found and appreciated for exactly who she was.”
