REBECCA LAUGHLIN RANT:

DREW AND ESTELLE?! WHAT KIND OF MONSTERS THOUGHT OF THAT SHIP! SEND THEM TO TARTARUS

"but Percy is so old for Nico and blah blah blah...."

Dude you won't believe what I just witnessed, people freaking out because of Percy and Nico's age gap??!! LMAO LISTEN HERE

I found out that people actually ship Estelle, Percy's BABY sister, with Drew Tanaka.

Which is like idk how many years but definitely feels illegal😭

So I just began reading Trials of Apollo (I've been putting it off because I got spoiled of a certain death but have decided to pick it up, I'm on the first 100 pages of the first book) and there's this character named Chiara Benvenuti that I am absolutely falling in love with! Apollo describes her as a pretty Italian girl who is a daughter of Tyche.

So far she's just a side/ background character, but I love every single dialogue that has come out of her mouth, including the Italian that I have absolutely no idea what means.

This is literally the first time I've encountered her, I have never seen any fanmade posts about her or anything, and I think that that's absolutely criminal! If there are any content that even just mentions her, then please gimme!

If she turns out to be a bad character then I'll be absolutely ruined.

They're both professionals at Not Giving A Fuck! 😘🖕

Percy and Drew bestfriendism is Real !!!!

Drew listens to true crime podcasts in the mornings to start her day off

I feel like someone already made something like this but I'm not sure 🕺

THIS!

Aphrodite cabin

I recently got into the Percy Jackson Fandom and right now I’m honestly just pretty disappointed about the Aphrodite cabin and its wasted potential.

The Aphrodite cabin could have been a place where people are loving no matter what and where people see how beautiful you are because the children of Aphrodite know that beauty is more than beauty standards. I could have been a place where you can go and not get judged.

The Aphrodite cabin could have been a Loving and beautiful place.

I know that part of this may come from everyone expecting the children of Aphrodite to be a certain way but I just think that it’s kind of sad.

The Aphrodite cabin could have been a place to teach young children about love and that love isn’t only romantic and that everyone is beautiful.

Okay lots of people don’t like Dizzie (Daring/Lizzie) and say they have no chemistry. Which is fair IN THE TV SERIES. but I’m a wonderlandiful world? Even tho Darings barely in it he still has so much chemistry with Lizzie. Maybe it’s just my theatre kid heart (hahaha) but like they’re so adorable.

AND WHEN LIZZIE KNIGHTED HIM.

Okay minor spoilers for a wonderlandiful world, I’m going to put some of my favourite Dizzie quotes from there.

“Now, kneel.”

Cedar was surprised to see Daring do so without argument.

Through some twist of magic, Lizzie’s butter knife had enlarged with him, now as big as a sword. She picked it up, solemnly touching its flat side to each of Daring’s shoulders.

“I knight you a defender of Wonderland, Sir Daring Charming. Heroic, loyal, fuzzy doom.”

“Yes, exactly like a pirate,” Lizzie said. “I would be much more comfortable speaking with you if you were a pirate.”

Briar put a finger to her chin, considering, and promptly glided to the ground, fast asleep.

“Arrr, Lizzie Hearts! Have ye killed Briar Beauty?” a voice asked from behind.

Daring Charming sauntered up and saluted her. He’d been so accommodating with her pirate request that Lizzie felt certain her mother couldn’t disapprove of their friendship.

“Aren’t you supposed to be racing?” Lizzie asked.

“No rush,” he said. “I always win. Even when I don’t.” He winked at her. “Ahoy, matey.”

“Daring swooped into a royal bow and said, “Be still, my heart! A fair princess has arrived!” And, strangely, he was looking at Lizzie, not Apple. Daring’s complimentary, showy stuff seemed to set the Ever After girls’ lashes aflutter, but Lizzie raised an eyebrow.

“If your heart were still, Mr. Charming,” she said, “then you would be dead.”

“Excuse me?” Daring asked.

“You said ‘be still, my heart,’ thereby commanding your heart to stop beating,” said Lizzie. “If your heart is obedient, I expect you to drop dead at my feet.”

Daring stared at Lizzie. He opened his mouth and seemed surprised when a chuckle escaped it. Lizzie smirked. She didn’t often hear Daring Charming chuckle.”

Off with its head!” shouted Lizzie.

Daring drew his sword with a flash of steel and an equally brilliant flash of a white-toothed smile.

“I’m just the prince for the job,” he said.

Lizzie smiled in surprise that someone was actually taking her seriously.

Daring winked

Lizzie lifted one hand, posing as she had on the amphitheater’s stage. “I

have returned, Boreas, wind-herder, to watch you writhing in the agony of age and death.”

Daring laughed heroically. “What a battle. Bards will sing of my deeds! Or perhaps a pop singer. Do you listen to Katy Fairy?”

“I do not!” Lizzie said grandly. “But I shall listen to her squalling posthaste as you are my friend, and friends recommend music to each other!

The audience gasped. Lizzie smiled. Maybe this strutting-about-a-stage business wasn’t so bad. She glanced at the anxious face of Headmaster Grimm for inspiration and decided to make up a few more lines. “I will not be the daughter who does nothing but watch her wrinkled father writhe with the agony of age and death, your voice slowly becoming more nasal and oddly high-pitched, as if you were being strangled by a possum or a really weak octopus or something.”

Daring pressed his lips together, valiantly attempting to hold back a laugh, and ultimately failing.

Darabella, Darise, Dapple or Farring could never. Also Dizzie technically got the beauty and the beast (well daring as a beast and Lizzie is always obviously beautiful) arc first. Even if it was sadly under developed.

Anyways Shannon Hale obviously ships Dizzie (well probably idk if she’s said anything on the matter) and it’s the best Daring ship. I suppose Kizzie (Kitty x Lizzie) kind of comes close but they just don’t have that romantic tension like her and daring do.

Anyways I think more people should appreciate them.

Don't be shy, share them 🤗

when a character has little to no backstory so you can make it up without getting in trouble

This made me feel happy

I know this is lame but ...

Demeter is the first person to have seasonal depression ...

IF ONLY 😭

"I wonder if they are having fun?" Hestia questioned while hanging out with Poseidon, Demeter and Hades.

Suddenly the door opened. They saw a figure. Two people.

"Look,their back!!"Poseidon exclaimed as they rushed and ran to greet them. Suddenly Hestia stopped.

"Ow-" Hades muttered as Demeter and Poseidon bumped into him.

Then they realized why Hestia stopped.

"Why do you have a child?" Poseidon dumbfoundedly questioned.

Hera smiled and lovingly gazed at the infant in her arms.

Hestia thought the baby looked cute. "What's the baby's name?"

"Hephaestus" Hera whispered her joy evident on her face.

"WAIT, SO YOU GUYS WENT ON A COUPLE RETREAT ,AND CAME BACK WITH A CHILD!!?" Poseidon shouted.

"Shush there is a baby in your presence" Demeter then smacked Poseidon.

"ow-"Poseidon said as he rubbed his head.

Then baby Hephaestus suddenly giggled.

Demeter was awestruck. "Woah" "That was so cute!!"

Poseidon and Hades were glaring at each other before they both said "I'm going to be the favorite Uncle!!"

The attempt to win baby Hephaestus's favor soon started.

Poseidon made weird faces. Which was weird to say the least. Hades talked in a weird high pitch voice and gave baby Hephaestus some drachmas-as a bribe. Baby Hephaestus was not pleased and started crying.

"You made the babyyyyy cryyyy hades" Poseidon laughed and said in a singsong voice.

"shhhh it's ok" Hera said softly while rocking Hephaestus in her arms.

Zeus was looking at both his son and wife with lovestruck eyes.

"Hera you should sit down first" Hestia suggested.

So the 6 of them walked to and sat on their thrones.

Hephaestus continued crying as Hera attempted to calm him down. Then Hera remembered something "Hestia can you bring the stuffed toy I made?"

"Sure" Hestia then left to get it.

"He looks so cute. He looks like you" Zeus lovingly said.

Hera blushed. Then Poseidon sang " Zeus and Hera in love like two...... pigs" Hades softly laughed while two people were glaring at Poseidon. Unfortunately this 'song' made Hephaestus cry even more when Hestia walked in .

"I found the toy hammer" Hestia stated as she passed the toy hammer to Zeus.

Zeus waved the hammer in front of Hephaestus. He stopped crying but he looked rather confused.

Hera smiled at his confused face. Hephaestus then made motions to grab the hammer as Zeus brought it closer to him and then brought it further away. Repeatedly.

Hephaestus wasn't crying like Hera expected him to. Instead he was pouting and glaring at Zeus. Finally Zeus handed the toy hammer to Hephaestus.

Though he was just a newborn, Hephaestus seemed to be having fun by excitedly waving the toy hammer.

"With his excitement towards the hammer, he would make a good god of blacksmith" Zeus stated. At that time he wouldn't know how true his statement would be.

Hera rocked baby Hephaestus to sleep as he got more and more tired as he played with the hammer. "We should bring him to the nursery"

Zeus nodded and held Hephaestus as Hera got up from her throne. Then they walked to the nursery. And placed Hephaestus on his bed as Hera and Zeus gazed at him with love and adoration.

Hestia, Demeter, Hades and Poseidon smiled seeing their siblings happy and in love.
