#EXCEPT to downgrade Leah!!

People love talking about Annabeth and her being blonde and how it’s representation and important when it literally doesn’t matter.

Her being blonde is NOT as big as the fandom claims it is. ESPECIALLY in the first series!! She mentions it’s ONCE in HEROES OF OLYMPUS and NEVER brings its up again! And it’s all within the same book!!

She has many other character attributes and flaws and plot points that are ACTUALLY important!! Feeling abandoned, growing up neglected, having her family broken TWICE. Going to war, being a run away, having to fight monsters for as long as she can remember. Her complications with family and how that’s shaped her to who she is. ALL things that can be touched upon and expanded on in the show with Leah.

But you all want to focus on an arguably minuscule detail that’s mentioned in one page. Alright. Okay.
