Percy: That's Ridiculous. Annabeth Doesn't Have A Crush On Me!

seeing percy, annabeth, and grover in the show, finally getting our first, real looks at them, and i can't stop thinking about the bridge from "try", one of the cut songs from the lightning thief musical.

The weight of the world's on my shoulders Like Atlas is crushing me down We're not brave, we're not strong, we're not soldiers My heart's just a drum, and, damn, does it pound

(not even touching on the atlas foreshadowing bc that gets me in a completely different way)

they're CHILDREN. this trio is a group of twelve-year-olds who have never faced this sort of danger before. not to mention what they've been through prior to this quest.

annabeth's run away from home because of her stepmother's hatred towards her. she's lost the person she sees as her older sister, and has pretty much no one who understands her.

percy has no one. from where he stands, his mother is dead, and his father doesn't care about him. he's been thrown into this world and all he knows is that everyone either thinks he should be dead or wants him dead.

grover's a failure. his father and uncle were killed, and his first time escorting half-bloods, he gets mixed around, and the daughter of zeus dies. this is his only chance to prove himself and find pan.

they're not soldiers. they're just trying to prove themselves and find somewhere they belong. they're not being brave, they're literally doing this because they have to. percy's the only one in the group with some kind of power, but even then, he hasn't been trained long, and doesn't know how to control it.

the tv series is going to absolutely wreck me because we know how traumatized and changed this trio becomes. we're going to see percy go from being bright-eyed and hopeful to weighed down and realistic. we're going to watch annabeth's heart break so many times, between thalia's death, luke's betrayal, and further down the road, thalia's departure with the hunt and luke's death. we're going to see grover's grief, his guilt, his desperation to be accepted and respected.

but we're also going to see them become a family, become an inseparable tangle of threads woven together by fate, and i cannot wait to see that.

thinking about everyone tim’s lost since he became robin on this fine evening

Based off this tweet idk I had to draw miko as it shfjshshshh

Tim Drake: You’re so tall, Jason. What can you see up there?

Jason Todd: Everyone’s flaws.

Tim after causing another international incident: While this may at first glance seem like the stupidest thing I've ever done.....it's actually not that high on the list

Jason [stubs his toe]: FUCK Dick: Jason! In front of the ten year old? Really? Damian, not looking up from his DS: I have committed atrocities, Grayson.

Bruce: i’m having a baby

Dick: that’s gre-

Bruce, slamming adoption papers onto the table: it’s you, sign here

"So she'd let no insult or innuendo slide. She'd always struck first and struck hard. Sometimes she even cut them up a bit. It was fatiguing, but nothing was sacred to the Kerch except trade, so she'd gone out of her way to make the risk much higher than the reward when it came to disrespecting her."

Innnnneeeejjjjjj.

i had a dream last night that i got absolutely demolished on here and someone in the tags said 'this was not your funeral but the next time you lay down will be in your grave' and i felt such a strong mix of emotions i woke up
