actually you have a mama's boy and then you have whatever the hell percy jackson is because that kid PRAYED to his MOM instead of his father who's an actual god .
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.
PJO TV EP 5 SPOILERS
Can we talk for a sec about how SMART GROVER IS??? Like it’s so cool we get scenes that weren’t in the book because percy couldn’t narrate it in his POV!! But Grover is literally a little evil genius and so much smarter than some people reduce him to!!
annabeth trying to dismantle a GOD's unbeatable machine because her fatal flaw is hubris and percy just knowing he was going to sit on the machine because his fatal flaw is loyalty THIS FUCKING WRITERS ROOM PLEASE SPARE ME
When Cardan says to Locke “Time to change partners. Oh, did I steal your line?” And his tone is unfriendly.
His tone is unfriendly
Yeah I’m going to be fucking sick that was so fucking hot. Cardan said you’re in the way of my future, move along.
No, actually. Nico was into it when they had just met too. Meaning, he liked Mythomagic way before he met Grover, both to him and chronologically
wait a fucking second are you telling me that grover got both percy and nico into mythomagic so that they'd be familiar with the gods and heroes and monsters they'd be hearing about for the rest of their lives???? is mythomagic a standard part of satyr protection protocol??????
I'm crying like obviously we know Percy's powerful but this show has held back in the fight scenes so him threatening Ares is. SO funny. baby you've got nothing to back that up. you're just a yappy little baby chihuahua right now.
Neteyam deserved better, and not only bc he deserved to live longer. In the time he still was alive he was treated like a child (how he was talked to, the rules he had to follow, etc) with the responsibilities of an adult (mainly mothering his siblings, but also generally following his fathers orders without complaint). He literally lived with child restrictions and adult restrictions both, and could we call that really living? He totally deserved to live longer, but he also deserved to live his short time to the fullest, to live his life like a child. Because, while living in times of war certainly changes things, his siblings lived as children/teenangers till the end of the movie, but he didn't get that.
I think that's what makes the little moments where his playful teenage side emerges (when he banters with Lo'ak, his little laugh when he decides to throw himself in the fight against Aonung to help his brother, when he sees the Tulkun for the first time) so special and at the same time heart wrenching.
Gryffindor:
the hemingway’s of the world
their writing is full of angst and personal experience

Slytherin:
the realistic writers
creates painfully authentic, multi-faceted characters with abundant flaws
their writings aren’t meant to teach a lesson; simply to share a story
draw inspiration from those around them; MAJOR people watchers
their writing is highly sophisticated and not easy to digest; you have to pay attention to every detail
prefer writing in the 3rd person; like to take an omnipotent view as a way of removing themselves from the piece
take great pride in their work and don’t reveal it until it’s at a standard that they approve of (and that bar is HIGH)

their stories always have a moral that they want the world to know
everything they write is a piece of them
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
