Annabeth: Accidents happen, you know. Thalia: [points at Percy] Exhibit A.

[purplepomegranate08]

Annabeth cannonly told monument facts to all her friends can we include this in the fandom please

Annabeth gets caught off her guard by something someone says and just spouts

“construction on the gateway arch was completed on the 28th of October 1965”

She never lives it down

Friendly reminder that Nico Di Angelo as a child, loved pirates and Greek mythology.

Imagine a 10 year old Nico getting excited that the Greek gods exist, then finding out that he gets to learn how to sword fight just like pirates do. (He was so excited he ended up cutting his leg resulting in a scar)

And now imagine all that excitement disappear when he learns that he can never show his big sister what he learnt.

Thinkin about Bianca di Angelo. She was just a pre-teen girl who was forced to be a mother. Was she attracted to death because it brought her closer to her father? What would she have become with freedom and time? Would she have chosen the Hunters if she’d had a chance at a normal pre-teen life? Maybe she just wanted to be a girl forever because she already missed her chance. 12 year olds shouldn’t be mothers.

The fact that Bianca di Angelo will only ever be remembered as Nico's sister, and how her character and her death was all created just to further Nico's character and arc, is just so tragic. Because the small fraction of life that we did see was her trying to escape all that. It was her trying to be more than just Nico's sister. Trying to be more than the person who takes care of Nico, trying to have her own life instead of being his caretaker, and then she immediately died. And we talk about her but only in the way she affected Nico. Even when Percy remembers her it's less about her and more about how Nico reacted when he told him that she was dead.

In life and in death Bianca tried desperately to stop her life from revolving around Nico. And then after her death for a long time everything Nico did revolved around Bianca. Morning her death, trying to exact revenge for her, trying to bring her back. Nico couldn't let go of Bianca.

On the other hand Bianca's most memorable decisions were all permanent attempts to solidify her independence. First joining the huntresses of Artemis and then choosing reincarnation. She loved her brother but she was forced to be essentially his mother when she was still a child. She wanted a chance of life without that responsibility. She wanted the chance to live for herself but she knew she would never get that and have Nico in her life at the same time.

Bianca di Angelo was her own person but she will never be remembered for that.

I don't care about Nico and Bianca's casting. I care about watching Thalia get so angry at Bianca for leaving her little brother when she never got a second chance with her own. I care about the look on her face when Percy tells her that Bianca is joining the hunters. I care about her looking over the San Francisco skyline and coming to terms with the fact that her not-so-little sister doesn't need her anymore, and she will never see her little brother again, even though he is only a few miles away. I care about those being the things that convince her to join the Hunt. I care about her seeing Jason in Nico's eyes.

Titan's curse was legit SO FUN and like... Their quest group isn't talked about enough??? It was so cool and fun 😭

[hazellevessque]

No but Nico is going to be down BAD in S3. This really cool kid saves him and his sister from a monster?? And he’s kinda cute?? AND he’s into the same card game that Nico is obsessed with?? And this girl he seems really close to just fell off a cliff?? So he asks if she was his girlfriend and he says no?? He’s going to have a field day

[demigods-posts]

big idea!!! what if instead of annabeth falling off the cliff with the manticore!! the manticore drags her to the edge of the cliff so it doesn't fall alone!! and percy sees what's happening!! and wills a nearby water source to take hold of her hand!! because he wants to prove himself as a big three kid!! but the water does not catch her in time!! and percy has to watch annabeth fall into what looks like a dark and bottomless pit!!!

[the-moonprophet]

i love how Nico's initial reaction to learning about the gods is basically "yeah seems legit" and then proceeds to Not Give A Fuck and starts geeking out instead.

like oh, my dad is not dead after all and is a real-life olympian god? Cool!

a monster just got shot with arrows right in front of my eyes? That was awesome! Is he dead?

learning that a traumatic monster attack on my sister and i actually happened? I told you his horns were real!

a bunch of strangers are asking if i want to abandon everything to stay at some unheard-of camp in order to train to fight monsters? Sweet, let's go!

like everyone else was so tense because of the manticore and such, and Annabeth literally fell off a cliff, and then there was Nico in the corner like “COOL!!!!”

i strive to reach his level of Unbothered™

(no i’m not being dramatic these are quite literally exact quotes from the beginning of The Titan’s Curse i’m not even shitting you)

[reefs-camp-blog]

headcanon!!

percy was looking for bianca for 14 hrs straight. everyone else gave up looking for here after around 3-ish hrs. they had to physically drag percy away from the wreck. when they finally did manage to get percy away from the wreck he passed out 30 seconds later. percys hands were also completely shredded and ripped. you could see the bones and muscles. there was blood all over them. he had bandages on his hands for at least three months afterwards. he does not remember any of this. he remembers looking for bianca longer than the others and he remembers his hands getting at least a bit injured. he does not know the extremes of either. his hand is covered in scars and stitches because of this.

zoe’s the one who stitched him up.

[something-something-here]

Zoë 100% gave this to Artemis ...or perhaps the other way around?

[freddie-77-ao3]

i just know if sally jackson was in charge of camp half blood and not chiron, nico’s entire character arc over the 4th book wouldn’t exist because sally jackson would not be so fucking STUPID as to make a 14 year old tell a ten year old his sister is dead.

[highasthesea]

Hazel has the earth and gems, Nico has the dark and dead, so what does Bianca get from her fathers cold blood and hands?

[poisonpercy]

you want me to collect a hades mythomagic figurine? the thing that killed bianca di angelo?
