Why does everyone have to take a shot at Percy? Nico stans come up with nonexistent flaws for him to put him down and literally criticize him for self defense against Nico after he literally betrayed Percy, Jason fans desperately want to prove that Jason is stronger than Percy and a better leader than Percy so much so they try and downgrade Percy's feats even when he is literally a strategical genius and an absolute beast of a fighter and the rest of the fandom along with Annabeth stans go on about some delusional and untrue dumb!Percy takes. I swear our fandom has the first top tier and absolutely phenomenal character, if not the best main character ever and suddenly everyone has a problem with it and Rick being Rick eats up whatever the majority of the fandom agrees on as new canon. I understand Jason fans are furious with the whole Jason is boring stuff, which I also heavily disagree with, but come on, Jason was barely fleshed out through the series. He has the most tragic backstory, and yet we see no great change in him due to it, nor do we get much of a solid plot line around him. You are always free to make headcanons, but don't drag other characters down for it.
hmmmmm not to be back on my jason grace agenda but something about percy, thalia, and nico facing iapetus and barely winning. (between titans curse & battle of the labyrinth, setting percy’s age at 14-15). and jason defeating krios, alone. hand-to-hand combat, aged 15. something about how in the house of hades we even hear that iapetus is, in fact, weaker than krios. this guy is so metal actually
