medusa in the tv show asking for someone to come help her in the kitchen KNOWING that percy would be lured in because he has a single mom and helping in the kitchen would be instinctive and it actually working is genius writing fr.

“So do we have a deal or am I killing all 3 of you so I. Can eat. In peace?!”

Walker is the absolute king of micro-expressions.

This is how Percy reacts to Ares’ threat. Up to this point, he’d actually been giving the god some pushback (in typical Percy fashion). But the second Ares’ tone changed, the second that he gets angry, leaning forward, forceful and red-faced, Percy’s demeanor changes. His eyes widen, eyebrows draw together, his mouth falls open before he intentionally presses it closed, and he looks away.

He’s completely avoiding eye contact.

When he does look back at Ares, he has this slightly disdainful look in his face. The way that one side of his face is kind of scrunched up.

You wanna know what Percy still doesn’t do? He doesn’t hold eye contact. He looks at Ares, sure, but for less than a second at a time. When he finally says they’ll do it, he’s looking away and his eyes very quickly move to Ares’ face before looking away so quickly that it’s easily missed, almost like he’s trying to see how Ares reacts to his “surrender.”

And what does Ares do? He backs off. Sits back in his chair and smiles like he didn’t just coerce a kid. And while he’s talking, after that, we see Percy briefly again and he’s the only one of the 3 not looking at Ares.

The sudden fear in Percy’s eyes at Ares’ tone and inflection? Lowering his gaze? Giving in despite clearly not wanting to and the moment of processing after the interaction is over?

Just because we didn’t see Gabe being overtly abusive onscreen, doesn’t mean the abuse isn’t still there in subtle ways.

"If the mission required someone to push me down a flight of stairs for it to succeed, you'd want someone who won't hesitate when they do it." — Percy Jackson.

A hc/theory of mine is that in pjo ambrosia and nectar work kind of like steroids, and people who take ambrosia repeatedly for a long time get a boost to their growth and also muscle growth.

Which is why my personal headcannon is that Clarrise and some of her brothers are way too tall for their age, sex and physique.

This is also why I believe Clarrise literally towers over Percy who is 6,0ft(185cm)(sort of cannon), while her mother was 5,00(headcannon). And while Percy isn’t short or anything, he never actually got that ambrosia boost because of the regeneration powers he has, so while Clarrise was consuming ambrosia daily at the limit of the ‘demigod safe’ Percy was just going for a swim.

Any serious, violent-less argument that they have from afar looks like Percy is 8 and is arguing with his older sibling about who gets a bigger bowl of ice-cream, despite them actually having a convo about what strategy they’re going to use for capture the flag because the hunters came and those two want to beat them.

Just imagine the comedic and chaotic outcome of this…

[fruitytea454]

I want a satyr to tell me that I am Demigod and that I need to go to camp Half-Blood where they will train me to fight. Once I am there play Capture the flag in the forest, and climb the rock wall with lava flowing down it.

Now why was hades lowkey queening out? He was SERVING. Zeus’s told him ‘take five’ and he heard change lives.

While I do wish that the trio figured out who she was a little later than they did, I really liked how Medusa was handled in the episode. I’m sure I’m not the only one who read TLT at a young age without really knowing the story of Medusa and then found out later on exactly what happened to her. And rereading TLT it really struck me that Rick cleaned up her story quite a bit. I think it was definitely the right move to have her resent not only Athena but also Poseidon because she was basically collateral damage in a dispute between 2 gods. And having that in the show also starts setting the foundation for how Annabeth and especially Percy end up perceiving the gods by the end of the series
