#but rick pulled it off

Okay I will admit I was nervous going into Chalice of the Gods but I did love it

*percy seen from a far, wearing a suit*

piper: do my eyes deceive me or is percy jackson wearing formal clothes? since when does he have the ability to look like a domesticated human being?

frank: how come HE, percy of all people, king of untidiness, can wear a cream linen suit and look like a celebrity, but when i tried one on i looked like a man-child going to a high school dance?

hazel: sweetie it’s just because it’s such a casual suit, and you’re much more elegant than percy is!

annabeth, turning to them: um okay, hi percy’s best friends? can you guys compliment him without insulting him?

leo: his ass looks incredible.

grover: has he been working out?

annabeth, side eyeing them:

annabeth: okay, you have all now either insulted him or hit on him. how about from now on, you do neither?

rachel: how about we do both? because i’ve actually just perfected doing them at the same time

Why is Rick Riordan (an american author) actually making me feel like i'm getting some of the best canadian representation in mainstream fiction? That line about most people not knowing canadians server in afghanistan... it's probably true. We're always overlooked, because of the stupid united states. But canada has a lot to offer too! Also, Frank's grief is...way too relatable. I lost my mom two years ago (give or take), and I'm still coping with the loss.

Frank stopped at the bathhouse entrance. He grabbed some towels from the supply shed. "She died." Percy knitted his brow. "How?" Usually Frank would lie. He’d say an accident and shut off the conversation. Otherwise his emotions got out of control. He couldn’t cry at Camp Jupiter. He couldn’t show weakness. But, with Percy, Frank found it easier to talk.

"She died in the war," he said. "Afghanistan." "She was in the military? "Canadian. Yeah." "Canada? I didn’t know – "Most Americans don’t." Frank sighed. "But, yeah, Canada has troops there. My mom was a captain. She was one of the first women to die in combat. She saved some soldiers who were pinned down by enemy fire. She … she didn’t make it. The funeral was right before I came down here."

Percy nodded. He didn’t ask for more details, which Frank appreciated. He didn’t say he was sorry, or make any of the well-meaning comments Frank always hated: "Oh, you poor guy. That must be so hard on you. You have my deepest condolences." It was like Percy had faced death before, like he knew about grief. What mattered was listening. You didn’t need to say you were sorry. The only thing that helped was moving on – moving forward.

NICK WOULD SAY WHAT? No wonder they wrote like 4 albums about him. The guilt must have been enormous

I assume you're referring to my tag where I mentioned that Rick (not Nick) would pull the absentee father "going out for a pack of cigarettes" trick on Syd, and yes, he did do that:

(from Comfortably Numb: The Inside Story of Pink Floyd by Mark Blake; pg.112)

So yah, Rick was certainly not an innocent party in their treatment of Syd. The way they all iced him out was shockingly unsympathetic – and they were aware of this. Undoubtedly, that's a large part of the guilt you hear coming through in their music (which, of course, has ethical complications of its own). Personally, it's Rick's keyboard in SOYCD Pt.9 is what really expresses his feelings specifically. It's so mournful, and communicates better than words ever could his sorrow for what happened to Syd and (imo) his role in it.

(this is also why I think "I Never Lied to You" is very obviously directed at the band....if not either Rick or Roger specifically)

[birdricks]

they rlly r being super heavy handed w the messages this season huh 😭

[captainsophiestark]

I don't want to break your hopes but slow down (pjo) I don't want you depressed after the first season.

Lol we’ll see how fast I get through the show when it comes out, but I read through the new Chalice of the Gods book in literally like five hours, and it was exactly what I’d been hoping it would be 💗💗 and I just heard that Rick Riordan’s doing another book that follows Percy like the one that just came out! Wrath of the Triple Goddess comes out next fall and I literally can’t WAIT to read it!

Daddy doesn’t know about any sexual harassment that happens when he’s not around because Dean knows Dad wouldn’t be able to let that stuff go and he doesn’t want him to get in trouble

Poor guy. Monsters are one thing, but we can’t have Dad killing humans, too. (Has ever come close, though, or are Dean’s fears baseless?)

[gender-euphowrya]

i still don't get what's going on with rick & morty like... so they're still going to make it but without the guy who created it produced it wrote for it and voiced 80% of the cast including both titular characters ????

[fiberc]

GODDD... GUYS IM BECOMING A RICKXDIANE TRUTHER

NEVER HAD ANYTHING AGAINST IT- IT WAS JUST THAT LIKE. before they didn't add too much substance to diane beyond 'dead wife trope haha' and the little hints of her that would get past both ricks avoidance of the topic and just the show being unable to fully dive into her as a character. and being able to have a little glimpse into her this episode has be like. raving for more bro she was so adkgjhkfd
