thee first scene we got of dr abbott it's him being depressed and suicidal at hospital's rooftop and then eleven episodes later he shows up like-
that's what a good meal and uninterrupted 8h sleep would do to a man
For the longest time I've pretty much thought that Percy Jackson and Hermes are both my fav characters? like their both tied first place. Can't choose between them.
But then I saw a Percy Jackson anti talk shit so much shit about him... and like. it wasn't even things that Percy did wrong. Part of it was just them going "yeah Percy did all that but I don't don't he deserved a reward. I don't think he's worth anything. I don't think he's smart - he's dumb and all his plans were dumb" and boy. let me tell you. I was M A D.
This is not how I wanted to figure out that I like Percy Jackson more than Hermes. Hermes hate makes me lowkey mad but Percy Jackson hate?
It's an entirely different year (less than a month tho) and I'm still steaming M A D.
Nothing pisses me off more in this fandom than 1. people insulting Percy's intelligence (a kid with two learning disabilities) or 2. not acknowledging how much blood, sweat, tears, insomnia, time, risk etc. Percy has put into his quests and fighting the war. And to have that so casually disregarded? *exhales* yeah as you can tell I'm still fucking pissed.
but anyways, long story short: Percy Jackson is now my undisputed all time fav fictional character :)
just very happy with my drawing <3 proud of myself 💪🏻
I was thinking about this quote earlier, and now I present to you, a list (taken from my memory, so some examples may be missing) of everything Percy managed to achieve either without Annabeth in the picture or with very minimal involvement from her:
Fighting a fury (Alecto), and killing her
Fighting the Minotaur, and killing him
Resisting Clarisse’s bullying
Managed to pull off a difficult sword manoeuvre (according to Luke) on his first try (granted he did douse himself with water, but that was before Percy knew of his parentage)
Fighting against around 6 Ares campers whilst Annabeth stood there and watched
Fought a Chimera
Was the one to realise something was wrong at the Lotus Hotel and Casino and broke Annabeth out of her delusions
Dealt with Procrustes
Bribed Charon to take them into the Underworld
Possibly a questionable one, but I would say coming up with the plan to distract Cerberus. If you agree that the plan was basically ‘distract Cerberus with playtime’, (which Grover credits Percy with), the issue was not the plan but the items involved. Since if it was Annabeth’s plan originally why wouldn’t she just use the red ball straight away?
Fights Ares and draws first blood (or ichor, in the case of Ares)
In the fight against the Laistrogynians, Annabeth doesn’t show up until almost the end. Tyson does most of the work, why isn’t Tyson gettting credit, Reyna? 😡
Saves Annabeth from the Sirens
Alongside Tyson, fights Polyphemus
Is the one to give the Fleece to Clarisse, meaning Luke can’t get his hands on it. Annabeth calls him insane for doing this and says he’s ‘too nice’ and acts as though Percy is mad for trusting Clarisse to get back to camp.
Proves Chiron’s innocence and gets rid of Tantalus.
Fights and comes up with the strategy for defeating the Nemean Lion, with the help of Thalia, Zoe, Bianca, and Grover
Comes up with the strategy for beating Talos
Figures out how to escape the Spartoi at Hoover Dam
Captures Nereus
Works to convince Thalia that Zeus does care about her and not to sacrifice the Ophiotaurus
Fights Atlas
Holds up the sky
Deals with Geryon, first by cleaning the stables and then by killing him
Defeats his brother Antaeus (I will acknowledge that Annabeth tells him about Antaeus’s parentage though)
Eventually figures out that they need a clear-sighted mortal to navigate the Labyrinth (and a reminder that Annabeth admitted she had no idea what she was doing)
The entirety of the Stolen Chariot
The entirety of The Sword of Hades
Explodes Kronos’s ship with Beckendorf (the reason it didn’t go well is because of the spy, not because Annabeth was out of the picture)
Fights Kronos
Fights Hades and his army
Deals with the Hudson and the East, and by extension the monsters crossing the rivers
Fights the Minotaur (again)
Fights Kronos (again)
Deals with the Clazmonian Sow
Fights Hyperion with the help of the satyrs and nature spirits
Convinces Poseidon to come and help with Typhon
Continuously kills Stheno and Euryale
Manages to trick both Phineas and Gaea
Kills Polybotes with the help of Terminus
Defeats an entire cohort of Roman ghosts on his own
Becomes Praetor of New Rome
Causes a massive storm with Jason
Fights Otis and Ephialtes with the help of Jason and Bacchus
Comes up with the strategy (on the spot) for defeating Chrysaor
Defeats Akhlys on his own
Is at least part of the reason why Bob is in Tartarus to help them (the rest of the credit goes to Nico)
There’s probably a load more I’m missing, but that’s all I can remember up to the end of House of Hades. Is there a reason why Annabeth doesn’t bother to correct Reyna?
we talk about the poison scene in so much depth and detail but like it actually went like:
ahklys: i’m going to kill you with poison
percy: no i’m going to kill YOU with poison
annabeth: *starts crying*
A vida não presta
percy isnt stupid or unobservant he just assumes the best of people until proven otherwise
STOP SCROLLING
percy would not tease nico about the "not my type" line. my boy had zero self-esteem and was terrified of ruining his and nico's newfound friendship.
you know who would never let nico forget it?
annabeth.
