But you know what he still did? Blindly trusted that Grover couldn't possibly be the friend who betrays him from the prophecy. It never even crossed his mind that Grover had stood against him even if it was for protecting him. Because, I mean, I don't think any friend would just accept it that easily. Ykwim?
Percy’s face when Sally mentioned Grover playing a role in getting him kicked out of school…
The way his face scrunches up really tight before relaxing? That’s anger.
But not the kind of anger we see in him in the last episode.
This is the kind of anger that makes you cry. The kind that’s underpinned by embarrassment and hurt and feeling like you’ve been treated unfairly.
Percy knows he didn’t push Nancy into the fountain and he thought that, if anyone would have his back, it was going to be Grover. And then he didn’t. And it’s unfair to Percy. It’s Wrong. Because no one believes him, apparently not even his best friend.
And the way he closes his eyes and takes a really deep breath? That’s a tactic that’s literally recommended to stop yourself from crying when you’re angry. It allows your body to “catch up” with your mind.
What do you wanna bet that Percy learned that from a school counselor?
peeta dropping baby bombs>>gale dropping bombs on babies
And this feels weirder when I think how he'd be my kinda kinda uncle. I-
So, hypothetically, if someone, not me, was to have a crush on Toby's Poseidon, how much would Fandom hate them? Again, this is ENTIRELY hypothetical.
(No but the scene where he chuckles softly after Percy says "I didn't learn it from Chiron". I just physically can't- . I'm sorry, guys, I really am)
No, but, like, what do they do then? Do the other pantheon gods claim them and send an apology note and be like "Lol, sorry. They took a wrong turn"!?!?!?!?!
Do any of you ever wonder if Camp Half-Blood accidentally brought in a demigod of a different pantheon before?
This would be especially hilarious if it happens sometime after The Last Olympian/Heroes of Olympus, where the gods are required to claim their kids quickly.
A whole day passes, and the new demigod needs to sleep in the Hermes Cabin and Percy is furious. Meanwhile, the Greek Gods are pointing at each other and shouting, contacting the most obscure of mini gods. Chaos erupts on Olympus as every deity in Greek Mythology is called upon and interrogated. Hermes hasn't run around so much in centuries.
Hecate sits in silence, fully aware of what's happening, but enjoying the show too much to intervene.
i know we always joke about jude being mean to cardan all the time and cardan just being her simp (which, he canonically is hahaha) but I like to imagine that jude actually becomes unbearably soft and sweet with cardan. but only in private.
i like to think that jude remains the strong willed fighter that she has always been— until she gets home.
when she gets home, she sheds the mask, she sheds the part of her that feels like it always needs to be on the defensive, she sheds the fear.
when she gets home, to their room, she throws her arms around cardan’s neck and hugs him tightly, pressing soft kisses to his neck.
when she gets home, she feels completely safe to cry if she needs to, to tell cardan that she loves him, to be vulnerable, to be soft; safe to let cardan pull her into his arms as they lie in bed and he showers her with the affection she’s always craved.
in the quiet dark of their room, i like to think that they whisper their darkest secrets to each other, their fears, their hopes, their wishes.
i don’t know ;0;
i just want soft jurdan ;0;
brb running to my computer to write this
i do not remember the child i was before
their memories out of reach, just beyond my fingertips
i want badly to connect with them again, to be who i was before
my feet on the shifting sand
i smell the salt in the air, gray waves like years washing away
i am sinking deeper, farther, closing my eyes and reaching for that child
they are standing alone on the horizon, facing away from me
i can't move, i can't breathe, my heart is weighing me down
and as i'm choking on sand, my eyes are barely visible, but pleading, begging for just a glance, a hint, a single smile
the child doesn't turn back
i'm swallowed by my grief
I am so happy that Percy is a criminal in live action as well. Does it serve anything to the plot? Doubtful. It does, however, serve in building Percy's reputation as a goddamn MENACE and I'm here for it
As much as I loved the Thrill Ride O' Love scene, it feels.......unusual, lacking. 1st off, I kinda wanted to see Annabeth freak out about the mini automaton spiders and how they actually rode them out. But that's not the point. What I mean is, it's strange. To think that a god, any immortal being, would so easily accept the words of a 12 year old girl, unless Hephaestus had been thinking them himself for a while now. And isn't that a bit out of character for how he's been portrayed so far? Like, wasn't he about millenia of escapism? Of not thinking about people and being bothered by it? Or have I completely missed the point? It HAS been quite a while since I read PJO but idk, guys, idk
AY PAPI- I MEAN DADDY please- i mEAN SIR!

Nicasia: This totally sucks, man. Cardan: This is horrible. Nicasia: Yeah, I know, I mean look at today’s news. Cardan: No, it’s not that, it’s Jude. Cardan: It’s just like, I can’t get her out of my head and every time I look at her I have this pain in my chest, and I just know it’s her fault, that wretched mortal!
Sally Jackson really said "drop everything now meet me in the pouring rain" and Poseidon answered
