if i were able i would have written the socioeconomic political drama about the new rome and the hell it would take to actually rule it and the twelfth legion. like. child army and a CITY.

i would write it all solely for one scene, where reyna and jason, no longer praetors, are reclining on the sofas drinking hot chocolate and gleefully watching octavian, now appointed praetor, burn himself out trying to control this mess. his partner is lickspittle he took up only because they didn't pose any threat to him.

sure he has some family ties but did he know how much it took to terrify half of the cohorts into obedience and how much it took to persuade the other half? did he? noooo, he genuinely thought that being a praetor would mean that he can shirk his duty and just get to boss people around.

now he's running himself dry to make the third cohort stop partying and spending too much, ban the fourth cohort from experimenting without reading even a basic training on safety, and trying to make the first cohort actually do something about the second constantly blowing up parts of the camp and the city.

jason and reyna? unbothered. moisturised. happy. in their lane. focused. flourishing. gloating shamelessly.

octavian? near a nervous breakdown.

it’s so scary that fish teeth sometimes look like people teeth. you’re not supposed to have that. well maybe piranhas are scared of us having piranha teeth. i will reflect on my human centric worldview (folds my hands behind my back and gazes out at the horizon)

Alright so you know how Rachel has a really famous dad? She’s probably also really popular on social media and she’s good friends with Percy so there are probably pictures of him on it. There was probably paparazzi involved. Social media probably thought they were dating. There were probably posts on how Rachel was in kahoots with a known terrorist.

i’ve been thinking about riordanverse demigods and their mommy issues.

annabeth, piper, alex fierro: my mom is an absent goddess who’s kind of a bitch to me and my loved ones

jason, thalia, hazel: my mom was a messed up person when she was alive

nico, leo, frank, magnus chase: my mom died years ago but she was a wonderful person and i miss her every day

percy jackson and will solace: MY MOM 🤱 is my BEST 🤩 FRIEND 👯 she is so LOVELY 🥰 and KIND 💕 and COOL 😎 and i’m having DINNER 🍽️ WITH HER ON SATURDAY 🥳💫🤪

Thinking about how children of Poseidon will always be stronger, have more range than any other big three child.

Like Zeus's domain is mainly in the sky. He's about order. Law. Lightning. Wind. He gets storms as a side product of lightning and wind. But he has control over those; he can make them gentle just as he can make them destructive.

Hades is the dead. His domain is over souls, over the minerals and riches and the fallen mortals, monsters and everything that lies in rest in the earth. He's all about justice for the dead. He doesn't show off his power nearly as much as his brothers because he's more of a judge and overseer than a raging, wrathful god.

But Poseidon? Yes, his domain is the sea but he is so much more. He is also the storm bringer and the earthshaker. He has chaotic power over his brother's primary domains. You'd think that Zeus would be the storm bringer cause he has lightning? No. It's Poseidon. You'd think that Hades would be the earthshaker because the depth of the earth and the underworld is his domain. No. Its Poseidon. And those particular powers that Poseidon has in his brother's domains are not neutral or calm. They are powers of destruction and deadly force. It is not in a storm's nature to be gentle, nor is it in a earthquakes nature to be gentle. Poseidon's powers are predisposed to chaos. (Chaos, the strongest and first of the primordial gods).

And then on top of that, Poseidon has domain over the sea. The sea, which we know even less than our own solar system. Everything from the depth of the sea to the shallow waters. The waves, the creatures within, the monsters within. They're all Poseidon's.

What did Percy say in tlo again? "Kronos knows Poseidon can tip the scales against Typhon?"

Not Zeus, not Hades, not any of the other Olympians or gods. Poseidon.

Yeah.

Poseidon is the strongest Olympian god, and Percy is the strongest demigod and it's not even close.
