ok but the percy being a descendant of venus by mother headcanon does make sense Hear me out
it would explain why percy is more fluent in latin than most of the other greek demigods and also how he is described as straight up GORGEOUS. gorgeous enough for hazel to think he was a roman god. A roman god in disguise (which, by the way, is confirmed to be a huge compliment considering that percy said in the calice of the gods that you could recognize a god in disguise by the fact that they tend to make themselves look a little too perfect)
how sally is also "strikingly beautiful" in canon and i do not remember where but im pretty sure she has also been described to look like a "warrior princess" or something along that and descending from a goddess of love would explain how she managed to attract poseidon despite not having any characteristic related to the stuff poseidon is the god of (most gods chose their mortal partners based on that; ex. wills mother being a singer or annabeths dad a professor) also apollo in the trials of apollo saying that he understood why poseidon was attracted and if he were still a god would have tried hitting on her too
Also! the swan being one of aphrodites/venus sacred animals but at the same time a symbol of loyalty. and whats percys fatal flaw? loyalty

I just think it's funny how Rick Riordan must have done SO MUCH research about different cultures and communities, doing his best to be respectful in his representations.
Yet couldn't be bothered to pull up Google Maps to see how far away the St. Louis Arch is from the water

Something I don't understand is how people can hate Jason so much. Like okay I get it maybe he's not as cool as Percy and maybe his chapters can be pretty boring but still what did the poor guy ever do to deserve so much hate like gods he did nothing wrong! All he did was live his life as a sweet two year old and then Hera/Juno came along ripped him out of his life put him with the wolves and Lupa threw him into camp Jupiter and was like 'Yeah that's nice...ohhh wait no gotta take away his memory and make his life even harder than it already is!' Then he wakes up on a bus with no memory, people he doesn't know but they somehow know him and then he finds everything out, meets new friends and a guy who also got his memory wiped but got everything back, they all go on a long ass journey, defeat the bad guys and shit, his best friend's kinda dead but at least he can relax a little. He finally starts feeling content he's finding his place and stuff, he finds out his best friend is actually alive and then he DIES. HE FUCKING DIES. Doesn't get his memories, doesn't get to meet his friend who he thought was dead because now he himself is dead. He wasn't able to experience anything a normal teenager/kid would do all he ever did was fight. And it helped with nothing. He still died.
Jason Grace they could never make me hate you.

“Not all men” you’re right. Leo Valdez would never treat me like this.
