I keep seeing people saying Hobie Brown was a runway model because of this specific line-
(Sorry for the bad quality, I couldn't find a gif)
"I'm not a role model, I was briefly a runway model"
I know a lot of people say that he was a runway model as a joke, but some people are misinterpreting the line. He wasn't actually a runway model. He crashed a runway. Thus the line, "briefly".
Now, I'm not saying headcanoning him as a runway model is wrong, it doesn't really matter to me, but I just feel like that would be very OOC (out-of-character), and considering his values, he definitely wasn't canonically a runway model.
Modeling is a job in which every aspect of your life is controlled by an agency. The food you eat, the clothes you wear, your weight, your body, your hair, even your friends are determined by your modeling agent. Many models do not have access to free speech or free will and are under powerful contracts which limit their freedom heavily. Hobie Brown would not advocate for this at all. I don't believe the same Hobie Brown that protests against fascists and actively fights for freedom and loving yourself would want to be a runway model and have every aspect of his life controlled by a greedy agency. Not to say that he wouldn't absolutely kill it on a runway, but it would be very OOC for him to have been or currently be a runway model.
Activists often crash runways to publicize certain things, like animal rights or animal cruelty. Hobie was probably doing the same thing or something similar, since he is technically an activist, an activist for freedom of speech and basic human rights.
This is more of a rant than anything else, and I just really wanted to get this off my chest because I've seen a lot of people posting about him being a runway model. Headcanon him however you'd like, but if you want to be accurate, please try to do some research before-hand. The writers did an immaculate job at making him a very deep, well-thought out, well-written character, so try not to misinterpret him! š
I was thinking the SAME thing when I was watching it in theaters!
We need to give this more appreciation she was so fucking cool I can't get over this š

For some reason there seems to be a sudden surge of anti gwiles/ghostflower people misusing the tags just to spread hate, I say just block these users when you come across them and move on. Sending them PMs/giving them a reaction is likely what they want anyway. Block and move on.
If youāve read the books, you know what Iām talking about. He beat Ares in combat when he was 12, as well as Medusa and the Minotaur. He can create hurricanes, tsunamis, create water because water used to be there, create water from his physical being, create storms, control rivers in the Underworld (like the Lethe) and anything that has to do with water. To summarize this, Percy Jackson is an extremely powerful person. The most powerful demigod in the series.Ā
Water is very broad in general. Itās everywhere on Earth. So, Percy Jackson can control about anything. Here are my theories and explanations.
Yes, this does have slight spoilers in it.
Blood bending / Hemokinesis
The human body is 60 - 75% water. Since Percyās main domain is water, controlling blood, which is 90% water, varying in amounts from small to large, would be very easy for him since heās so powerful. He can make blood boil, blood freeze, and make you explode. The brain and heart are 73% water, so he can just smush your brain and heart with a wave of his hand. Your lungs are 83%, so those could either shrivel up or explode. The skin itself is 64% water, so Percy could potentially flay somebody alive. The bones are 31% water, so he could also control them. The muscles are 79%, so he could control those and manipulate a personās body like a marionette. Also, species that rely on blood pressure. An example would be Arachne, which he probably couldāve just crumpled up in House of Hades.
āThe brain and heart are composed of 73% water, and the lungs are about 83% water. The skin contains 64% water, muscles and kidneys are 79%, and even the bones are watery: 31%.ā - According to scientists in 1945.Ā
What Iām saying is, Percy Jackson can kill somebody, monster or human, easily, and in the goriest way possible.
The Sky
Percy is shown in Mark of Athena helping Jason create a storm. Though it physically drains him, Percy can still create storms. Does he have complete control over the weather? No. But he can control parts of it, like making storms. Technically, he can also use water vapor from clouds as a weapon or whatnot. As well as water vapor in general. Since water vapor is always in the atmosphere, itās always an available option. Theoretically, Percy can congeal water vapor into the object that he wants it to be.Ā
The Ground
Though Percy did not inherit Poseidonās earthquake abilities (I wish he did), he can still control aspects of the ground. In Blood of Olympus, Percy is shown to summon a pebble from the river, since itās covered in water. Therefore, if anything is covered in water, Percy can summon it from the ground. Like pelting someone with wet sand, which would be odd but still effective, since wet sand is dense enough. So, if something on the ground contains water, he can control it.Ā
Water
No, Iām not talking about the ocean. Iām talking about liquids that contain water. Percy, as shown in pages 362-363 of House of Hades, can control poison, since poison contains water. Percy can also control acids, since acids contain water. Without water, acids cannot release hydrogen ions, therefore rendering the acid useless.Ā
Percy cannot control anhydrous liquids, though there are few. An example of one would be mercury. But an anhydrous liquid can be formed varying on conditions, like how itās stored, if it has a pure form (like metals), if it is exposed to moisture, and so on. So, all in all, Percy can control just about any liquid.Ā
Of course, this could either be very stupid or very deadly, like Percy shooting hand sanitizer at someone (due to the water in the alcohol) or a corrosive liquid like sulfuric acid.Ā
In summary, everything is Percy Jacksonās domain. The ground, the sky, the sea, and anything with water in it. Heās extremely powerful and no-doubt the most powerful demigod in the series. That isnāt arguable. I believe that currently, Percy hasnāt reached his full potential yet, since heās only utilized a limited amount of his broad spectrum of abilities.Ā
On a side note, I am a bit disappointed that he canāt cause earthquakes. I think that would be very interesting to see.
I need to a fork and a knife Iām gonna eat this
what if I told you if Percy Jackson was a singer he would either have the voice of Frank Sinatra or Kurt Cobain. No exceptions.
