#grover appreciation post

24-year-old Grover was really showing this episode and I enjoyed it a lot. He's so matter-of-fact, which I find adorable. And I loved how reassuring he was to Percy and Annabeth when they were worried about leaving him. He's been through a lot, he can take care of himself, and he had a plan to get information out of Ares. He might seem skittish or nervous or just silly, but I really loved how we got to see the older side of Grover in this episode because he really is more capable than anyone gives him credit for.

my favourite thing about sally jackson is how she's stayed such a romantic her whole life despite what she's gone through and nobody talks about it. she sacrificed her years of school so that she could take care of her dying uncle. she was deserted by poseidon after having his kid. she sacrificed the next few decade or so of her life taking care of percy and was repeatedly abused and put down by gabe, all while struggling to become educated, even though gabe disapproved of it. majority of her life was wasted away for the sake of other men. but she put in the work, went to college and became an author who writes romance books. she supports and roots for percy and annabeth's love and is not strict on them at all. she started a new family. she reclaimed the part of her that was a dreamer and was young to pursue her dreams, even at an age where moms are usually expected to retire.

Omg I completely forgot that Grover has empath abilities! That puts a whole new angle on That Scene, 'cause like, he's not just doing normal psychoanalysing to figure out the perfect way to get an in with Ares, he's literally testing an angle and feeling Ares' emotions to gauge if it works or not. Genius.

Full faith in Uncle Rick and his vision🫡

also yall I’m already OBSESSED with Aryan as Grover
the lil head shake to Percy telling him to back down and not fight Nancy and her friends, that he’s fine and Percy doesn’t need to worry about him
the panicked rapping on the door and “mrs jackson?” and the way his voice kind of shakes like he’s afraid but he’s being SO BRAVE and he’s determined and—
every shot we get of him I can just Feel the protector energy radiating off of him through his expressions and the way he carries himself and I’m losing my mind over it. Aryan Simhadri I cannot WAIT to see you bring Grover to life holy shit

Two things about episode 4
#1 We got grumpy didn't get enough sleep Grover and I cannot possibly relate more. I literally snap at everyone when I don't get at least 5 hours.
#2 We finally got to hear Grover moan about being hungry 😭🤣
Now if they could stop gatekeeping the series's first Seaweed Brain that'd be great

spoilers for the pjo series/tv show
idk if people talk abt this but like
everyone annabeth loves always disappears (except for grover, we love grover) some come back, but for some amount of time, they’re all gone.
of course, this isn’t 100% true, but for the og series it def is
Her entire family leaves. technically, it was her that left, but same principle. her father stopped loving her. (yes ik that they start to rekindle their relationship but that isn’t the point)
luke and thalia, the ones who took her in, her family, they leave too. luke betrays her, almost brings the end of the world. thalia sacrifices herself for annabeth and luke and gets turned into a tree. she does come back, but she dies right in front of her.
this is true for both the tv show and the books, but specifically hoo.
athena leaves her too. in the tv show, she abandoned annabeth when she needs her most, when she’s depending on her, in the arch. the same is true in hoo. athena abandons her. it wasn’t 100% her fault in hoo, but still.
so imagine how she feels when percy disappears. the multiple times he sacrifices himself, when annabeth thinks he’s gonna die.
and in the lost hero/son of neptune? when he disappears for 9 MONTHS??? that must’ve been devastating. finally they get a happy ending, finally they can be happy, and then they’re robbed of it. her love, the one who’s never truly abandoned her, disappears. for a LONG time.
i think about this series too much

friendly reminder that normal is a myth. everyone has issues they're dealing with. and there's a place you need to go, where you belong. where the things that make you different, are the things that make you special. special like your father, yes percy you are special. like food the colour blue, all the things that make you you, are the things that will make you strong. so be strong 🫶🫶

Real, like he found Percy, Nico, Bianca, and kinda Thaila. The next kid he finds, everyone is betting on who of the big three they are.
Grover was really out here finding and collecting Big Three kids like they were Pokémon. He really said, "gotta catch em all," and he did.

Hiiii!!! Hello i hope you have a great day! :D anyways i heard you have your hc for the argo 2 crew so i gotta ask when i was scrolling theu ur posts about Piper i saw you the pjo alt fashion thing so i'm curious do you have any fashion hc about the argo 2 crew? (Btw thanks for answering my question earlier i really appreciate it :D)
Of course! First and foremost, general hcs:
All these kids are ADHD and half of them are probably autistic. The vast majority of them absoLUTELY have sensory issues and their asses are NOT gonna be able to wear a lot of specific clothes. Tulle voted number 1 most hated fabric at Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood 10th year in a row.
They probably have to make the camp shirt decals a very specific way so they don't end up with the stiff chunky solid print that you get sometimes, otherwise half of camp wouldn't be able to wear them without having a breakdown. Are the camp shirts a required uniform? No, particularly not at CHB. But people want to wear them and if they're specifically being made with sensory needs in mind then there's a very strong reason why campers are picking those over the rest of their wardrobe. They love their sensory-needs-friendly silly t-shirts okay.
Seriously SO many of these demigods are defaulting to a camp t-shirt and their favorite bottoms cause they don't feel like risking a spontaneous sensory meltdown every day.
specific Argo II crew hcs under the cut cause this got long:
Vast vast majority of Percy's wardrobe is thrifted stuff and hand-me-downs. He hates new clothes and needs somebody else to have already worn them in. The more worn they are, the better. He probably will convince his friends to wear in new clothes for him if he can. Every time he gets a new CHB shirt he asks Grover and Annabeth and Sally to trial run them.
Piper is very specifically canonically anti-fashion and i think she'd also be very big on anti-fast fashion specifically as well. Not only does she negatively care about looking fashionable and adores every tacky article of clothing she can get her hands on, but she will kill you with lasers if you try to give her some new cheap clothes with gross seams. She definitely has the weirdest wardrobe out of everybody on the crew though cause she'll pick up random stuff she finds funny. Her and Percy are going thrifting together.
I like the idea that Annabeth's wardrobe is cobbled together from a lot of her friends. She just takes their hand-me-downs or borrows stuff from them that just ends up hers. The only skirts she owns are probably all from Silena, half her shirts are Percy's, etc etc. If she has a semi-coordinated outfit it's a miracle of the stars aligning. She has never a single moment in her life intentionally collected something with the thought of "ooh this will pair nicely with [x]-" nope it's all just "oooh comfy..."
If Nico does not have at the very least an oversized second layer he will DIE. It's required. Big hoodie, big coat, oversized tropical shirt haphazardly tucked into his jeans so it doesn't go down to his knees, etc etc. He's gotta be swimming in it. Oversized shirts are also good but less required so long as he has his oversized jacket. Everything else is comfort: Jeans he's worn to death that are full of holes cause he doesn't want to have to find a new pair that doesn't make him feel like he needs to crawl out of his skin, boots he cannot remember the origin of but he'll be damned if he could ever find a second pair of so he's also wearing them to shreds, etc etc. Also extremely likely to be stealing his friends clothes, though less of everything like Annabeth does and more just shirts and hoodies since all his friends are larger sizes than him so their clothes fit baggy on him which is ideal. The only reason his outfits match are cause the majority of his wardrobe is black or neutral-toned. Bright colors are overstimulating to him but he does have color in his wardrobe rarely.
If Leo does not have one billion pockets on his person he also Will Die. He too is so so specific about fabrics cause a.) fire safety but also b.) bad combo trying to work when you want to shed your skin cause your shirt is Wrong. The suspenders are both for sensory reasons (random compression straps yippee) and cause his toolbelt is too heavy half the time so it helps keep it from falling down. His outfits are built on practicality.
In a perfect world Jason would be running around in a comfy hoodie, t-shirt, and nice long skirt. Unfortunately he is cursed to have to wear pants. Again, practical t-shirt and basic pants combo. I think he's worn practical simple clothes for so much of his life if you try to put him in something too out-there he'll have a sensory meltdown SO fast. Don't show him a top with a bunch of different textures he'll cry. Probably not a huge fan of fitted stuff either. Would be a clothing thief if he were not often one of the largest sizes out of his friends. I hc he and Reyna are similar sizes though so they can share some stuff. He has definitely borrowed Reyna's skirts to just chill in when he doesn't have to do training stuff.
Frank is cursed by the combo of mens department, plus size department, and sensory issues. He'd like to wear a more expansive wardrobe but he'll be damned if he can find something beyond extremely basic t-shirts and pants that both fit him and don't make him want to turn into bees. At least he is the only one of the Argo II crew that can get out of a sensory meltdown by turning into a reptile and literally shedding his skin and then turning back and going "i'm okay 😌."
Hazel is like the only one of the Argo II crew who can tolerate a lot of frills and lace and such. She would love to be wearing cute lolita fashion. She's also like the only one on the ship who cares about that. Unfortunately, frilly cupcake dresses do not pair well with horses (or general demigod training) most of the time, so she rapidly oscillates between cutesy fancy outfits and practical t-shirts and overalls and such. For her t-shirts and overalls combo she is not worried at all about coordinating cause it will probably get barn shmutz and such on it but she does doodle/paint all over any denim in her closet.
Reyna and Hazel are in both Horse Girl and not-tomboy solidarity. They're the only girls on the ship who regularly wear skirts. Reyna basically only wears pants when she's forced to by whatever she's doing (usually training or horse stuff), but otherwise she is so vehemently anti-pants. She does not like pants. Don't look at her with pants.

ur right percy would so bitch to drew
Ever since posting that, I have seen so much more Drew appreciation and defense and I’m so happy but I’m on my knees for Drew and Percy fics 🙏🙏 please they’d be so mean and hot together 😫
Anyways I’m gonna respond with headcanons because this is my post and I can - and yes they are all over the place and not chronological what do you want from me
Drew came to camp during the SOM and was claimed before Percy got there. She saw him getting picked on for having a cyclops as a brother and then him pouting about it by the lake and she called him a loser and bullied him until he bullied her back and she was like. Yeah. He’s my friend now.
Shes used to people treating her differently because she’s pretty, she sees right through the pretty privilege and hates having fake friends who just want to hang around the pretty girl - especially guys who just want her for her looks. So she’s mean and cruel to see if people will be like “ur being a bitch” or if they just let her do her thing because she’s pretty
When Percy was mean back to her it like won him some points with her. Plus he can match her wit. And he read her to filth she’s not gonna lie and she needs more people like that around her
She was like his only friend that summer - I know Annabeth was his friend but they were fighting and on rocky terms so he would hang out with her in his free time.
She laughed when Percy told Tantalus to chase a donut and she had to go clean the stables as punishment
Drew adored Silena and looked up to her as her older sister and camp councilor. She thought it was cool for a child of Aphrodite to go against the rule in cabin 10 and date Beckendorf without breaking his heart. She related to it as like a child of Aphrodite going against the grain since she is you know daughter of love and is the most bitchiest person on the planet
When Beckendorf died and Silena was practically catatonic, Drew became her fill in, taking care of her siblings while Silena mourned and trying to take care of Silena when the other kids weren’t around so they wouldn’t worry - she truly has such a soft heart but only for a select few
When Annabeth was kidnapped in TTC, she wasn’t at camp and heard through the grapevine what happened but she didn’t know where Percy was so she couldn’t Iris message him. She tried Iris messaging him at camp but it didn’t go through. She wasn’t worried tho (yes she was)
She called him a grandpa the first time she saw him after that quest though because of his grey streak
She tried to teach him makeup during one of their hang outs but he already knew make up pretty well - she didn’t push on the why, she just helped him hone in on his skills (he stole his mom’s make up to his bruises from gabe)
Percy confided in Drew about Nico being a son of Hades because she’s like the central hub or headquarters for gossip at camp so she can put down rumors of Nico’s parentage and start up new ones to distract people. Also because she’s his friend too and he wanted her opinion on the whole thing
She’s almost as ignorant to the Great Prophecy as Percy is since she came to camp after him but she’s heard things here and there about it and when he tells her that he’s taking on the prophecy to protect Nico, she looks at him like he’s already dead just like Annabeth and Grover do and he can’t stand it so he pulls away from her, Annabeth, and Grover to spend more time with Rachel because she’s the only one who doesn’t treat him like a dead man walking
Drew found Silena’s scythe bracelet but since she wasn’t a camp councilor she didn’t know that there was a spy in their midst so she just thought it was some weird gift Beckendorf made her and put it back without saying anything
Since they were in the midst of a war with like fifty kids on their side, they could waste man power gathering the bodies of the fallen and showing them proper respect until after the fight was over. Drew stumbled upon Silena’s body, still smoking and melting from the acid, scythe charm in hand. After having seen Kronos wielding said weapon, things started to click for her as she stared down at her dead and disfigured sister.
That was the first time Drew actually fought in the war and wasn’t helping the wounded in the hotel. She was so enraged with Kronos, with Luke, with Silena, with Percy, and with herself
Percy found her and fought alongside her to protect her from enemies that almost broke through her defense since she was so angry and emotional she wasn’t even thinking about it
He tried to talk to her after the fact but she just threw the scythe charm bracelet at him without saying a word. That was the last time they spoke until Percy disappeared
She didn’t care when Percy and Annabeth got together. Distantly, she thinks she may have been proud and happy deep, deep, deep down but it was overshadowed by her rage and grief. Will understood that all too well as they had both been in the infirmary seeing all the gore and damage and death, all the lives they couldn’t save. Will blamed Percy for Michael, Drew was angry with Percy for not telling her anything about a potential spy that ended up being her sister who she KNEW! She KNEW she had that damn bracelet, but she didn’t have the information to put it together!
Now whispers of Silena being the traitor float around and she hears them as central hub of gossip but she can’t put them out. She’s enraged with Silena. She was everything Drew admired, she felt like her and Silena were the in the same vein of Aphrodite children, different, going against the grain. She helped Silena mourn. She took over for her as camp councilor. The whisper became about her and how if Silena, one of the sweetest girls in camp, could turn on them, then Drew, one if the meanest, probably already has.
She became a bit paranoid looking for potential traitors even if there wasn’t a war to be fought. She didn’t want what happened with Silena and Percy to happen to her again. So when Percy went missing and this new girl was claimed by Aphrodite with the power of charmspeak who seemed to stand against the cliche version of Aphrodite that people expected - Drew saw Silena.
Speaking of charmspeak, Drew never really used it until after the war. She never felt the need to until she was camp councilor and Silena was gone and she was paranoid and she needed some way to ensure that she knew everything that was happening so she got her cabin under her control and put her ear to the ground to catch every little whisper of gossip so she wouldn’t be surprised like that again
She only stopped being mad with Percy when he went missing. She thought it would be some short stint until Hera gave Annabeth a vision and she went out in search of him but returned with three random kids. Again, needing to feel in control, she but in and tried to wrangle the situation under her control by grabbing the boy who looked like he wielded power who may have known something who said weird things. She was trying to get info on what they were doing here and if they knew anything about Percy and his whereabouts
She can immediately clock sexualities. She knew TLH trio were all queer in some aspect. (Valgrace & sapphic Piper is real and true to me)
It used to be a little game she’d play with Percy where she’d point out some kid and go “pansexual” and he’d look the kid over and go “ehhh…demi” and it was more like a test honestly. She’d throw out right and wrong labels depending on the day and Percy would either agree or offer a counter label.
It led to Percy being kind of alright at clocking queer people and also led to a huge miscommunication between them and Jiper. Piper called Jason her boyfriend and Percy whipped his head around to look her over, having already clocked her as sapphic, and asked real skeptically “boy…friend???” And it happened to come across more scathing like along the lines of “You have a boyfriend? How could someone ever like you?” rather than “I thought you were gay?”
Jason tried to defend her like “Watch what you’re saying to my girlfriend” or some other alpha wolf shit and Percy looked him over the same way like “girlfriend???????????” even more incredulous. The ghost of Drew cackled loud as fuck for that btw oh my god they’re so lucky Drew wasn’t on that ship
When they eventually broke up and Piper came out and Jason and Leo started getting closer Percy was. Not surprised in the slightest.
Hot take: Percy clocked Nico as gay but he couldn’t clock his crush on him because of his shit self-esteem
Drew lives in New York in some rich neighborhood idk New York I don’t live there. Google says Upper East Side so I’ll just put that here in hopes it makes sense to someone.
Drew and Percy (pre-second titans war) used to hang out outside of camp. She’d drag him to go shopping with her and carry her bags and as payment she’d take him to buy new boards so whatever skateboarding terminology fits here. He’d end up dragging her to the park and trying to teach her how to skate and it’s the most fun she’s ever had even if her knees and elbows are banged up from falling over and over again, the only thing she can feel is the ache in her abdomen and face from laughing so hard and smiling so wide
She teaches him an Aphrodite tactic of warfare in using your looks to your advantage. She teaches him about pretty privilege and is like “a pretty face will get you almost anything” and he’s like “why do I need to know this it’s not like I can use this” and she just stares at him like “jfc ur so dumb”
He ends up using it while roaming California with no memory. With no memory, his self esteem is like. Balanced out so he’s not cocky but he’s not insecure. He’s objective and he can tell that some people are attracted to him so he uses it to his advantage. He’ll smile and flirt with the cashiers and workers to distract them while he steals food or he’ll charm restaurant workers into giving him like a plate of food at the end of the night. He isn’t sure where he learned it but damn is it useful.
When (which Stoll was it? Connor?) Connor pulled the note from Annabeth out of the fire and informed them that Percy and Annabeth were in Tartarus, that was when she finally forgave him and let go of all the anger she had been harboring, worry and concern taking it’s place
Speaking of Tartarus, that scene of Percy manipulating Bob to kill Hyperion? Those are skills he learned from Drew three points up.
Being thrown back into war, Drew fought the entire time this time rather than camping out in the infirmary and helping with the wounded.
She fights like Percy since Percy helped train her. She didn’t want to train with anyone else since she knew she’d get comments like “a daughter of Aphrodite wishes to fight?” Or something along those lines but she trusted Percy not to say anything like that since he’s never been one to believe generalizations. Its part of the reason why he has such a good relationship with cabin ten, because he treats them like demigods rather than shallow children of Aphrodite
Drew and Rachel knew each other before they met through Percy. Their fathers dragged them to the same business party or some other rich man lingo here. They ended up becoming good friends and exchanging numbers. They don’t “meet through Percy” until after Rachel becomes the oracle and they run into each other at camp like “??? Wtf????”
Drew loves anime and forced Percy to watch it. He’s unamused in the beginning but soon enough he’s bugging Drew to invite him over so they can watch more because she has all the good streaming services. This is a secret to everyone else but them. The only reason it gets out is because Piper makes a reference on the Argo ii and Percy and Leo laugh at it. Annabeth is baffled. Percy keeps Drew’s involvement a secret tho. He knows how important her reputation is to her and he’s a real one.
Percy, Rachel, and Drew end up at some company party together because Rachel dragged him along because like hell is she suffering alone and Drew finally enjoys one of these stupid parties with her friends. She acquires champagne through charmspeak but Percy declines (because I’m a (California) sober!Percy truther) and he becomes Drew and Rachel’s chaperone. They run around doing stupid shit while he keeps them safe - also having fun with them.
Rachel’s father refuses to invite Percy to these parties anymore but Drew’s father is more focused on the fact that this is the first time he’s seen his daughter like truly happy so he keeps inviting Percy much to the chagrin of Mr. Dare.
When the second giant war comes to an end and the fighting is over, Drew just rushes across the battleground and throws her arms around Percy and he’s surprised until he starts to feel her tears soaking his shirt and he guides her away from everyone. She finally breaks down not just from this war or losing him for that bit of time but from all the rage and anguish and losing her sister and the second titan war and just…all of it. She just cries against him silently. She’s not a loud crier and she denies having ever cried against him even when she pulls her head back to wipe her tears.

tiny details about the PJO TV show that I appreciated (episode 3)
a followup to THIS post.
Grover having a conversation with the pegasus
The candy Annabeth goes to grab from the gas station isn't real in our world... meaning that the viewer is just as unfamiliar with it as she is
Percy's bed is the only bed in cabin 3 (and there were probably no beds in that cabin until he was claimed)
Medusa's dress makes her look like a marble statue
Grover, who is theoretically Percy's best friend, calls Sally "the only person who ever really cared about [Percy]." Self loathing? Guilt? A simple acknowledgment that he only came into Percy's life less than a year ago? Awareness of how much he's lied to Percy? SO much to unpack in one sentence.
Both Annabeth and Percy's opinions of Medusa can be summed up as "I believe everything my mother says about her."
