Curate, connect, and discover
Thank you all so much for the support, it really means a lot for me cuz I was so worried that my writing wouldn't be liked. BUT, this isn't the reason I'm posting rn.
So as you might know, I'm a history enthusiast, ESPECIALLY about ancient Greek history and mythology. And I've been reconnecting to the PJO fandom a lot lately, and since many people started to take interest in it too after the new series, I thought this was the right time to talk about a thing that never sat right in my head.
Athena's children.
Don't get me wrong, I like how they depicted their birth in the series, but after all I've studied during all these years, all the texts I personally translated from the original Greek inscriptions and all, I still don't think that Athena would ever make kids of their own.
She's a very jealous deity (think about the Arachnis myth and many many others) so why would she give birth to an offspring that would inherit part of her own wit and intellect, knowing there's even the smallest chance that they could surpass her own skills.
She wouldn't really see a point in making kids.
But, and this has happened various times in mythology, she gladly protects other heroes as long as they fight and win in her name.
So, my idea to perfect even more the PJO world, I've been thinking for a long time that Athena's cabin could consist of demigods from various godly parents, maybe some even unclaimed, but all satisfying Athena's standards. Idk if this is just me reaching insanity or if this is actua a good idea, it made sense in my headšš
Anyway, that's it, thanks for coming to my Ted talk :3
ALSO quick reminder that requests are still open and won't be closed anytime soonšš
It would be hilarious if when Artemis and her hunters visit Camp Half-Blood, she just looks at one of the unclaimed kids, points at one of them, and goes, āMy brotherās kidā then walks away like nothing happened and the kid is just standing there confused.
I really hope this to happen
actually the potential of a good percy-ares dynamic is so immense because percy literally says āi wanna kill this guy š¤¬ā and ares looks at percy, all fond and impressed, āi knew i would like you šā like percy can be such a chaotic, angry little hellion when properly motivated and with his every monster kill stacking up i just imagine ares looking at poseidon, pointing at percyās kill count displayed on some olympian tv screen, going, ācanāt believe your spawn of all people is my favourite cousin šā
Yes, so beautiful, something I haven't seen anyone mention and maybe I'm remembering wrong is that if percy calls him Kronos he's giving him more power even if he doesn't know it. So even if sally and percy don't know calling them by name gives them power (which I feel like sally would cause she's awesome) wouldn't be better for percy to call him grandpa.
Percy going "Grandpa (derogatory)" about Kronos
That was beautiful
santa fe from newsies is a luke castellan song in this essay i will
Percy winning with finger guns :) š«š
percy, holding out his fist in his palm: ok wise girl. rock paper scissors time. if i win, i get to pick the movie for date night
annabeth, doing the same: fine, but if i win, we move back across the country to that house in westchester that i love
grover, looking over in alarm: what?! how is that evenā
percy, nodding firmly: deal. rock papā

I fully believe that they should get Jack Black to voice Blackjack the pegasus in the pjo tv show.
I just realized the PJO show runners could do something so sick and twisted and amazing during the Circe scene.
What if, the image that Percy sees in the mirror, the ācoolerā version of himself, is like book accurate Percy. I just think that would be such a funny, messed up little Easter egg.
the adhd kids missing the deadline but saving the day anyway is so personal to me actually

@therainingkiwi dude, me too. i honestly have been hesitant to say it for a while because i wasn't sure how it would be received, but it's nice to know i'm not alone in my line of thinking. percy and annabeth would be foster parents of every demigod whose mortal parent won't step up. great addition, dude!
My dream fancast for Will Solace is Walker Scobellās brother, Tanner Scobell, because:
First of all, Walker looks like Will. Second of all, since Tanner looks like Walker (because theyāre brothers, obviously), Tanner would be perfect for the āyour not my typeā scene!! And third of all: he is already casted as one of the campers in the show!!
Angelina Jolie as Queen of the Greek Gods and Olympus, Hera.
Hera, the goddess of Women, Family, Marriage, Familial Love (as well as cows) and the Patron of Women, should be played by none other than Angelina Jolie!!!
YEAHHH!!! PERCY JACKSON SEASON 2!!! ššššš SEA OF MONSTERS!!!
Phillipa Soo as May Castellan!!! She would be perfect for the role of the mother of Luke Castellan!!!
IS THAT CONNOR AND TRAVIS?
is that katie gardner behind themš„¹š„¹š„¹š„¹
āLogan Lerman shouldāve been Poseidonā You fools. You absolute buffoons. I canāt believe we are sleeping on the comedic gold of him getting casted as the man, the myth, the stepdad that stepped up: Paul Blofis
Pjo but Hestia has her own cabin and unclaimed kids go there because sheās the goddess of the house and home. So 1: the Hermes cabin isnāt so crowded and 2: so they can get claimed faster if all the unclaimed kids are in one area.
bianca was playing the vr with a bow and arrow and earlier you can hear nico screaming "biancaaaa" its so cute
Okay so I know Aphrodite looks like Annabeth to Percy, right? But the first time he sees her, she kind of shifts back and forth a few times?
Hear me outā¦what if Aphrodite in the show was played by movie!Annabeth, musical!Annabeth, and someone who looks like Leah? (*cough* Keke Palmer *cough*) now THAT would be a goddamn Easter egg
happy birthday to walker scobellāour perfect percy jackson!! the sensitivity, goofiness, sarcasm and emotion he brings to the screen has been a joy to watch and he embodies percy in all the ways that matter. i can tell he is going to have a long and prosperous acting career but hope he stays happy and healthy throughout! heās only 15 and the journeyās just begun!!
if momona isnt playing silena beauregard i think i might die actually
reblog to claim that you were a pjo fan before the show
The Wolf Man is Jason, isn't he?
I just know its Jason
