the stark contrast between sally's you are not broken. you are singular. you're a miracle. you are my son, to chiron's as a forbidden child of the sea god, you are singular amongst demigods...
whole. singular. alone.
perfect in the eye of his mother, and a tool in the eye of his father. his existence is his mother's world and his father's ruination... unless he can do something about it, but why would he want to do that? poseidon left him alone. to hollow out and fill with godly power and dictated direction when the time came. meanwhile sally was filling percy with love and acceptance. for who he already was and for whoever he would become.
Grover: Oh, you like war? Me too! My favorite part is *commits psychological warfare*
Nope. Pretty sure if Percy hadn't mentioned Hermes, Luke would have and then Percy would have. Wait, would he though? Would Percy defend Hermes? Honestly, I just think he'd be like "Yeah they're jerks but not all of them and they're keeping us "protected"
SPOILERS FOR THE LAST PJO EPISODE !
So I just saw the last episode of the Percy Jackson serie, and at first I was kind of surprised because they didn't put the scorpio (?) poisoning Percy, but I think it was for the better.
Their duel feels more meaningful, more important. Because the thing is, not only does Luke understand how Percy feel about the gods, but they're also very similar. Although on different sides, they have very similar views.
The explanation is not just Luke trying to recruit Percy, it's also him making understand how they both see the flaws of the gods, and how it needs to change (though he wants this change to happen thanks to Kronos, whereas Percy believes that the gods are trying and can do better).
I don't know, maybe it's just me, but it felt more meaningful and like it was adding a deeper layer to Percy and Luke's story
No, but Rhys saying "There you are. I've been looking for you" gives so Howl's "Yaah, gomein gomein(which in the subs is "There you are, sorry I'm late" which ik it isn't but still) and the whole scene. Well, except for the fact that Feyre was in a more sour pickle than Sophie bit that's the whole vibes of them. So yeah. That's that
“Percy fell first” “annabeth fell first”
they fell in love at the same time, but annabeth knew right away that she was done for, whereas percy woke up 2 years later like “damn that’s what that is…”
People forget how adorable Annabeth is
hazel defender for life btw
The pjo fandom really downplays the Annabeth's romantic gestures in the series. Yes percy held up the sky but so did she. Yes he gave up immortality for her before they even started dated but so did she. She literally took a knife for him and people only play up his reaction to it. Yes percy is the ultimate book boyfriend but Annabeth is just as good of a girlfriend and people should put more respect on her name.

I've always wondered why the Romans think demigods all of a sudden started getting claimed? They couldn't know about Percy's deal with Olympus, so what do they think happened?
The gods were probably like "as a reward for fighting in the war we will now claim you all!"
The Romans were probably pretty proud of that.
Then like a year later this conversation happens:
Annabeth: and then after Percy made the gods promise to claim all their children-
Jason: THAT WAS YOU?!
Percy: yeah. Why did you think the god suddenly started claiming everybody?
