Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh They Don’t Need To Know That ❤️

"And Bob's your uncle!!!"

Dr. Bellum

I like to think that readers with detail-focusing neurodivergence were specifically in mind when making these narratives.

I, personally, always had the whole scene in my mind as people moved in it. So knowing the limitations and the desired result, I could piece together the plan during or before he was acting on it. (Of course this only works if the author mentions all the pieces)

And remembering that Percy Jackson was a book Rick wrote for his ADHD kid to be engaging to that mindset, this was definitely intentional. Our brains think faster than forming words for an inner dialogue, so Percy being “spontaneous” is just him thinking faster than the rest.

Also, getting neurodivergent readers to engage fully with the text and not drift off in the middle of a sentence (me fr fr), there has to be a lot of fast paced but thoroughly explained ideas happening all the time. And one of the ways to not drag it out is to skip the explanation altogether (no explicit plan from Percy’s POV) and give just enough context clues for people to pick it up without feeling as if they’re spoon-fed plot points

All in all, Percy Jackson the book and character are very much ADHD coded ❤️

so insane that percy canonically gets chased by something wants to kill him and he passes by others who look at him like "you need help?" and he just shouts "I'M FINE! I'M GOOD!" while running for his life like this is actual canon event not just some comedic headcanon i love him so much

DOUBLE ARTIST!!!!!!

Getting kidnapped once? You can have it. Getting kidnapped twice?That's on me.

@thepyramidoflove So overwhelmed but happy to be on this amazing team!

In the spider AU I feel like king adrius (idk spell) would work better as a non blood related uncle than a father to Marcy since she already has parents and I think he would fit that role better. You could also make him saving Marcy more about the experiment than about saving her to give it that extra spice

Uhuh uhuh but have you considered:

Marcy hesitating to deal the final blow when he turns on her. Marcy remembering how he took her in, how he saved her life. Marcy putting all her trust in him—he’s her father, he wouldn’t hurt her… right?—only to see him abandon any familial bonds for power.

He takes too many unstable symbiotes into his fusion. In the end it’s not Marcy, Sasha, or Anne who defeats him. He overloaded himself.

Olivia and Yunan are there to comfort her, of course, but it’s not the same. All the time she’s known Andrias, he was happy, kind, supportive.

Now all that’s left is a shell of a father she thought she knew.
