A skilled but struggling actress is stunned when she is recruited by an unconventional team of criminals to be part of an elaborate heist that will rely on her improv abilities and charisma. Persuaded by the promised money, which is enough for her to travel to the city of her dreams to pursue her career, she second guesses her choice when she sees who else is on the team: an old rival who’s cheated her out of many a role.

can’t stop thinking about percy’s claiming scene now let me hold on a second.

we have this child, who has barely just escaped death by a hellhound, seemingly being healed by water. the girl who kinda-sort-of-hates-him knows full well what is happening. his wounds heal. she mutters about how she didn’t want this to happen. this could only mean one thing. poseidon, they whisper. and sure enough, just above his head, is a holographic figure of a trident.

ngl i have chiron’s line memorized by now lol.

“earthshaker, stormbringer, father of horses. hail perseus jackson, son of the sea god.”

and it’s just beautiful imagery, because everyone bows to him. everyone, as in, even the ares kids who had just tried to kill him. and it hits different if you think about how technically, percy jackson is a sea prince. it hits different when you realize that in canon, no other demigod got this treatment. maybe it was because few children of poseidon existed in comparison to zeus, or that poseidon is seen as a more elemental and primordial god, therefore is shown more respect. it hits different when you realize that percy becomes a figure of respect and dignity.

whatever the case, this scene FUCKS ME UP. annabeth bows down, chiron bows down, luke bows down, clarisse bows down…and meanwhile, the kid in question is scared out of his goddamn mind. he just thinks: why are they treating me this way? i don’t want this power. i don’t want this attention. i don’t want respect. because, here’s the thing—he’s not used to it.

but from then on…percy will be treated this way, like royalty, bc technically he is. his father is the ruler of the seas, and the ocean has always been feared, has always been respected and admired. and not only that, but he grows into that power. it’s so interesting to see this little boy who was just told, in the most dramatic way possible, who his father is—and then see a dramatic change in his character during botl when he wants more power as he cleans the horse stables in texas and realizes that the sea was inside of him all this time. that he is unrestrained. it’s so interesting to go from a little boy who wants nothing to do with his dad and his powers to a 16 year-old who sinks his sword into the williamsburg bridge and causes it to split in half. like his father did in athens. he commands armies, becomes his father’s son as he screams out when he realizes that michael yew is nowhere to be found, and so, with that scream, he makes the ground shake. he unleashes that power with titans, with gods, with monsters. and he cannot be stopped from then on, when he realizes that it’s inside him, that he has no choice but to want it. even if it scares him, at first.

so that claiming scene creates, in my mind, this domino effect on percy and his link to the ocean. to his father.

earthshaker, stormbringer…it all comes full circle. and the next time a group of demigods bow down to him, i can assure you that he’ll accept it, grimly. because what choice does he have? he is poseidon’s mortal son, and still he makes the ground shake and the seas rise to his command. he is the camp leader—but each day that his powers grow, everyone questions if he’s truly half human in the first place, or if he maybe belongs to the sea, as his father’s lieutenant like zeus had suggested in the first place.

and it all👏starts👏with👏that👏claiming👏scene

Everything was peaceful until the corgis took over.

i personally love to over analyze everything and suffer

Every 1000 years the Gods are reincarnated as humans. Write about the God of Chaos and the God of Peace being born twins.

What would you do with Infinity Gaunlet?

1. Every person gets food, water, shelter, and food Wifi so long as they are willing to contribute to society in some way shape or form.

2. Remove all rapists, Serial killers, and human traffickers from existence. (Pedophilc rapists get EXTRA painful removal) and any person that attempts to do such crimes from then on will immediately combust.

3. Fix all issues with the climate and make it physically impossible for humans regardless of their actions to impact the climate.

4. Invincible Penguin army to establish peace.

5. Fix the airing schedule of season 3 of ML, as well as some of the episodes I have beef with.

6. Have Free cures created for all diseases and disabilities. (Thus allowing for 1. To apply to everyone.)

7. Make Child birth Painless.

8. Make it so Women only get pregnant when the Woman wants to, and thus making ultimate birth control. (Thus making it easier for woman to get pregnant when they want to and not get pregnant when they don’t)

9. Feminine care products are much more affordable.

10. It is impossible for any animal to harm a person.

11. Make it so only I can weild the infinity gauntlet, and I can not be murdered.
