More Baby Annabeth thoughts to ruin your day:

In the show, Echidna explains that monsters trach demigods by smelling their fear; it’s part of the hunt. Once a demigod is aware of who they are and why they’re in danger, monsters will come for them. Annabeth was constantly hunted by monsters from the age of 5. MEANING THIS LITTLE BABY ANGLE WAS SCARED AND ALL HER STEPMOTHER AND FATHER DID WAS MAKE HER FEEL LIKE ITS HER FAULT!!! SHE WAS SO ALIENATED FOR TWO YEARS AND BLAMED HERSELF!!!

Paul Blofis would absolutely throw hands with Fredrick Chase after finding out how he treated Annabeth and you cannot convince me otherwise.

[britney-rosberg06]

Fredrick Chase put his new life over his daughter. Every chance he got he chose them.

Athena put her pride over her daughter. She never let anything g go even if it means her death

Luke Castellan put his need for glory over his sister. Even though he promised

Percy Jackson put her life over his own. Every single time, from the St. Louis Arch to the Manhattan Bridge to the depths of Tartarus. Every single time her over him.

The scene in which Percy witnesses the siren’s call to Annabeth

I think about this moment all the time. Annabeth insists on listening to the sirens, because of course she does. After she escapes, Percy manages to catch her and when he does, he is able to see her vision. In it, Fredrick Chase, Athena, and Luke welcome Annabeth into a redesigned New York, one that Annabeth herself presumably designed. It was grander than Mount Olympus.

But while everything in this new world was seemingly perfect, it was missing one thing. It didn’t feature her best friend, Percy Jackson. But there is a specific reason for this.

Its because Percy didn’t need fixing.

Everything in Annabeth’s vision was something that was broken in her life. Her relationship with her parents, their relationship with each other, Luke’s betrayal, and the world as a whole being rife with homeless and war. Each of the pieces of her vision were broken.

And Annabeth was the one to fix them. Her perfect world featured all of the broken pieces of her life fixed. But Percy wasn’t there,

Because Percy didn’t need fixing

Annabeth didn’t see Percy as broken, so she didn’t feel as if he needed fixing. He was really the one stable piece of her life, her best friend, and he didn’t need fixing.

She truly loved him enough that even her fatal flaw of hubris couldn’t touch him.

That is why Percy Jackson wasn’t in Annabeth Chase’s vision. Not because she didn’t see him as an important part of her life, but because he didn’t need fixing.

And if that isn’t love, I don’t know what is

FREDRICK CHASE, ATHENA, AND THAT NASTY ASS STEP MOM, WHEN I CATCH YOU!!!! ITS ON SIGHT!!! YOU CRUSTY DUSTY ASSES!!

[valewritessss]

I want to know what goes through Fredrick’s head on Annabeth’s birthday.

Does he even remember it’s her birthday?

Does he feel regretful about not showing her the love she needed?

Does he not care at all?

I need to know what he thinks if he remembers, if he sees the date and his mind flashes to a tiny seven-year old Annabeth before realizing she’s not that little girl anymore, she’s grown up and he didn’t get to see it.

[goblinwithartsupplies]

I just realized how close the chase residence is the garden of Hesperides.

They’re both in California. Around the san Francisco.

Luke’s quest was to the garden of the Hesperides. He was so close to not only Annabeth’s family but also camp Jupiter…. To Jason.

He was so close to the family of the only other people he consider family.

What if that’s why he failed? We don’t know exactly what Luke’s quest was like other than he got to the garden, failed and got his scar from the dragon. What if he was too close to finding Jason and the rest of the Romans?

[faceless-mistake]

Percy Jackson hear me out cake but it’s just everyone putting each other’s parents on it

[somnas-writes]

Hc that the Chase family is so hot that the gods have to fuck them

[themoonplantwrites]

Sometimes I wonder how much the mortal parents of demigods know before hand about raising a demigod child. (The ones who the gods reveal themselves to anyways.) Like what, if anything, do the gods tell their lovers?

Did Fredrick Chase have to get an Ancient Greek to English dictionary when his daughter started speaking in an ancient dialect of a language he doesn’t know?

Did Sally Jackson get any heads up before having to figure out how to bath a baby who is literally waterproof when he wants to be?

Did Naomi Solace have to figure how to put a baby to sleep who can glow in the dark?

It’s really clear that Esperanza Valdez didn’t know that her son might be fireproof given how much she freaked out when she found him sleeping in a bed of coals.

Just the idea of these very human parents trying to raise their inhuman children and having no idea how to do it or what to expect.

maybe this is just me but i felt like the most out of character thing percys done was encourage annabeth to forgive her dad and step mom because i know damm well if he knew the fact that annabeth was basically neglected to hell and back by her dad and stepmom and was treated like absolute shit by her stepmom he would not say this shit

[hermemescabin]

Annabeth forgave her dad, let it go

A person reconciling with a neglectful and/or abuse parent in real life is a very personal choice that you have the right to make for yourself.

A character who grew up in an abusive and/or neglectful house in fiction, only to have this neglect invalidated by the author, is a totally different matter. Personally I never felt that Rick gave me enough reason to believe Frederick is redeemed. Also he's fictional and my opinion won't hurt him. I just don't like him.

At the end of the day we're all going to interpret these things differently and I welcome you to disagree if you feel like it.

So I was reading your Athena & Apollo headcanons and it made me think of a hc to help fill a (very mild but infinitely frustrating) plot hole in the books! (Well, plot hole is stretching it, it’s not even a plot dent, more like a detail inconsistency that affects Literally Nothing but it has driven me crazy since I read mcga)

The detail in question: Why are all of Athena’s kids blonde and (possibly) curly-haired, when Annabeth is said to get her hair from her dad and Athena has never actually appeared as a blonde? (Aside from that time in Sea of Monsters but tbf that was a hallucination so possibly not accurate). It’s bothered me for a while, because Athena doesn’t Do romance and therefore it wouldn’t really make sense for her to have a Type, right? Why would someone attracted to mortal’s intellect care about their hair color? I guess I just figured she’d been blonde for a while and decided to go brunette later, but the “dumb blonde” stereotype has been around for a long time, having been especially prevalent since the ‘50s, and I can’t imagine Athena to want to be seen as anything less than the smartest person in the room.

But then your hcs got me thinking… we know that Athena is very proud, but she’s also deeply insecure. Like, “she got made fun of for playing the flute One Time by two goddesses known to be bitchy that she already did not get along with and threw it into the woods with a curse and refused to pick it up again (until Apollo coaxed her to)” insecure. And she doesn’t have very many friends, does she? Apollo’s kind of all she has, other than mortals, but her relationship with mortals is that of a devotee and a god. Reverence is not the same thing as connection. But Apollo, who is in a similar boat to her, makes connections so easily! Even at his worst, he makes people like him against both his and their will. Even his relationships with his devotees were… well they were messy lbr but they were also very genuine, most of the time. There was something more, there.

So, all this rambling to say: what if the reason Athena’s kids all look so similar is because Athena chose to look like Apollo? I don’t think she chose to act like him, but. I dunno. Maybe she thought mortals would like her better if she looked more like her pretty, popular brother. She’s always had to listen to people, mortals and immortals alike, praise her brother for just about everything while she had to fight for even a scrap of respect. Maybe she thought she could absorb at least a little of that something that makes people genuinely like him. That something that draws her to him again and again. Maybe it’s like armor, pulling on her brother’s face. If they don’t like her, it’s not because it’s her, right? Apollo’s been driving everybody crazy lately, anyway… (and yet, he’s still more beloved than her…)

And that ALSO feeds into my preexisting headcanons about Apollo looking like a Chase, which is fun!! (I think his modern godly form looks more similar to Magnus but Lester has a face/hair texture that is really, really similar to annabeth’s! So when he bashes the two forms together he makes the two of them look even more like siblings because he’s basically a bridge between the two of them, lol. But his old godly form looked strikingly similar to Annabeth in a lot of ways… hmmmm.)

Anyway it’s kind of a convoluted hc and once again falls into the “Apollo is the specialist little guy in the WORLD” mindset but I!!! Just like it!!!! When siblings are weird and messy!!! And admiration gets mixed up with jealousy and genuine affection is twisted by circumstance and time!!! And identity issues!!! And loneliness!!! It’s latching on to someone and having them be your whole world when you know that you’re just a small part of theirs!!! AUGHHH. Weird fucked up Olympus dynamics my belovedddd

HELLO LONG ASK

I never noticed this before, but this explanation seems Interesting👀

And don't worry, this fandom basically goes "AND THIS IS WHY APOLLO IS [insert description here" ALL the time XD

BUT YES THE COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIP EAT THEM UP WE ARE EATING THEM TOGETHER!!! :D

[britney-rosberg06]

it honestly makes me sick to my stomach not knowing how Fredrick Chase reacted to his daughter running away

His SEVEN YEAR OLD with learning disabilities and arachnophobia essentially went missing and yet never is there any discussion about a report filed or him looking for her or ANYTHING

She was a CHILD initially on her own before being taken in my two other children…out of contact for months before she got to an “safe” place and he didn’t do anything???? for months????? what the FUCK Richard

[tangerineprettygreen]

she’s going to fall in love with the architecture of disney, especially the rollercoasters 🎢

The difference between how Percy and Annabeth were raised:

*Percy and Annabeth on a quest when they are about 13-14*

Percy: *waiting Annabeth to start the car so they can travel faster for the quest* Come on we gonna be late!

Annabeth: Almost got it- *trying to start the car*

Percy: Where did you learn how to drive? You are not old enough

Annabeth: Watched my dad flying a plane-

Percy: My mom would freak if she sees me in a car right now

Annabeth: My dad would just ask me about the car's model and parts *shrugs*
