The best part of the percy jackson books is that from percy's perspective hes just an easygoing funny cool guy who seems pretty harmless but the moment you see him from someone elses pov hes terrifying. Just a crazy good fighter, a force of nature killing machine, literally gets mistaken for a god in disguise. But he doesnt see that side of himself at all because hes too busy arguing with authority figures and respecting women. I love him
I love that the show is giving Grover so much more screen time and is really diving deeper into his character. Particularly his reaction to his uncle’s death.
In the books, he was a little shocked when he first saw his statue at Medusa’s place but he quickly moved on.
In the show, he was visibly grieving and the first thing he said to Augustus was that his uncle died and he doesn’t know how to talk about it with his friends. Or rather, he doesn’t think they’d understand.
There’s just this clear divide between his perception of the world and Percy and Annabeth’s perception.

I support women's right but more importantly I support women's wrong.
Poseidon and Sally being good co-parents is really healing something in my child-of-a-divorcee heart. Sally can JUST summon him and he will JUST arrive.
"you won't want to hear it"/"no, but tell me anyway" MEANS SO MUCH TO ME. Like yes! Poseidon bearing part of the mental load means a lot to me.
forever obsessed with percy being weird. off-putting. strange even. a cryptid maybe. an urban legend if I may. my boy is the son of one of the oldest, most powerful gods, has been in FBI's records since the age of twelve, fought and won two wars against immortal beings, went to hell and back. I think he's allowed to be a little odd.
And then imagine him going "Oh, wait. Jesus wasn't a God. He was the son of God. WAIT SO ILL5BE JESUS'S UNCLE???"
Waiting for a scene in pjo s5 where zeus declares that as a reward for saving olympus, percy will be rewarded with the gift of immortality, receiving the greatest gift of all-being a god, and in the heat and tension of the moment, percy with blood on his face, torn clothes, trembling, stutters “a-a god? Like jesus?”
Thank goodness. I was so scared when I saw the notification with dad's photo that you'd have posted thirsting after him like I did yours. :')
You know what crossed my mind the moment I saw Hades?
He looks like such an awkward dad.
so about Cardan's tail, why does everyone think it's so weird? I didn't think twice about it at first, probably because I picture it as being like a lion's tail as opposed to flesh with a tuft on the end (which, granted, is a bit unsettling).
but, like, imagine him being confused about something and just standing there with his head cocked to the side flipping his tail around in the air. imagine him lashing it while he's pacing around, upset or frustrated. imagine him tapping it unconsciously on something while he's thinking. imagine him and Jude lying in their bed, Jude messing with the fluffy bit of Cardan's tail while he's reading. he tells her to quit it, but she knows he's enjoying it.
I don't know, I like his tail. I like the idea that it can convey the emotions he doesn't show on his face.
And why? All his life, baby only got "affection", admiration and attention only when he acts cruel, as seen the memory globe thingie.
And he‐ he knows that's how to get "LOVE"?? So like, the whole while he was cruel, really he just wanted attention? He just expected Jude to be happy about it like Asha was?? Baby Cardan really just chose the only "love language" he knee to try and impress the girl of his literal dreams?
And she still didn't seem to like him? What the hell?
percy telling annabeth that them hugging was okay and then basically asking her out on a movie date in the span of a few hours... crush era is so prominent i will start to CRY and WAIL and SCREAM
