Okay, I'm writing my first Jasico fic, and I'm actually writing a lot and I think I might actually post some of this. Anyway, I thought I would share a few details from what I have already written. (I am not writing this in a way that is linear, however, that is how it is set up for actually reading it.)
Nico only calls Jason, 'Grace' or 'Praetor Grace' but once he gets comfortable, when they are alone he does start to call him Jason.
Jason fell first, which obviously means Nico has to fall harder.
Nico is a very passionate person but he isn't very affectionate. He calls Jason 'Caro', but when he is sleepy or disoriented calls him 'lupacchiotto' (little wolf).
Speaking of passionate, Jason shows Nico Hercules and he makes Jason pause it on the first sentence to rant about how Hercules was Roman and if it was going to use Greek terminology, his name would be Heracles.
They both agree that Octavian is the worst (before Nico even meets him).
Nico stays at Camp Jupiter to get over it (refering to Percy, but I like the idea that it could also mean being gay in general), then ends up falling for the Praetor.
Nico often sleeps in Jason's bed then shadow-travel to back to his own place before leaving. (He has nightmares)
Also, Jason prefers to be the little spoon and Nico doesn't mind despite the fact Jason is much taller and has a much bigger build. It's like a weighted blanket when Jason lays on top of him. It's comforting.
No one knew the nature of their relationship, but Hazel noticed little tics that Nico does when he is around those he likes spending time with and sees that Nico does some of those as well as new ones when he is near Jason.

Unfortunately, bad news for all comic book fans, the genius artist for Disney comics, Maximino Tortajada Aguilar, passed away last week. He is from Spain and is the brother of the equally brilliant artist José Miguel Tortajada Aguilar who is also an artist working for Disney and Egmont editing Disney comics. While José Miguel worked more on Mickey Mouse comics, Maximino Tortajada Aguilar worked more on Donald Duck comics combining various styles depending on the publisher and given outcomes. He was born on 24-X-1961 in Barcelona, ​​and he started his career back in 1980 and continued his career until this year. He also drew on the OG Ducktales comics, Chip and Dale Rescue Rangers, Talespin and other Disney cartoons that made it into the comics, as he also drew for Egmont drawing for Dutch and Scandinavian comics. He is certainly one of my favorite artists and it is a great shame that he left us on August 20th of this year. Unfortunately, there is not much information about him, except on the Lambiek encyclopedia, and I learned about his death on the Inducks Discord from a friend of mine as well as here: https://www.tebeosfera.com/autores/tortajada_aguilar_maximino.html
lso bad news for all fans of Disney (Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck) comics. Yesterday, the genius artist for Disney comics, who did commission art, Sergio Asteriti, died. He was born on February 13, 1930 in Venice, and began his career in 1952. "Sergio Asteriti was born in Venice, and studied at the Scuola di Magistero d'Arte, section Publicity. In 1952, he moved to Milan, where he was employed by the advertising agency S.P.I.N.T.A. The agency folded two years later, and Asteriti turned to comics. He made his comics debut with the 'Bingo Bongo' series at the publishing house Alpe in 1955. He soon expanded his activities and did illustration work for various publishers and magazines. Asteriti joined the art studios of Roy d'Ami in the late 1950s. There, he drew for the British Fleetway agency ('Fun in Toyland', 'Freddie Frog', etc.) and for Il Corriere dei Piccoli, where he took over the 'Formichino' series from Roberto Sgrilli.
Asteriti has been an artist of Disney comics for Topolino since 1963. From 1974, he also took on the writing of Disney stories. He has mainly done stories with 'Mickey Mouse', but also other characters, such as 'Uncle Scrooge', 'Super Goof', 'Gilbert', 'Tanti Auguri', 'The Prince and the Pauper', 'Indiana Pips'." Taken from the Lambiek encyclopedia. He certainly contributed a lot to the Mickey Mouse universe. He died on August 27, 2024. Kudos to him for his truly outstanding work! Rest in peace! Amen.

Hi lulu, so i was wondering if have you played Far cry new dawn in French, does roger talk in another idiom?
In spanish he stills talk in french
Hi! Yes, I played New Dawn in French and Roger has the same Québécois accent he has in English. It even seems he’s played by the same actor, Vincent Leclerc, whose name appears among the other French voice talents in the credits.
As for some of the (Canadian) French words he uses, such as “osti”, “tabarnak”, or “caulisse”, they’re typical slang/swear words from Québec that we don’t use in France, so they kept them in the French version and they sound as funny and exotic as they do in English.
It’s rare that Far Cry characters who speak with a non-American accent end up also having an accent in the French version of the game, but Roger thankfully kept his!

Dugan is kind of a mix of Tarzan, Mowgli, and Bart Simpson all rolled into one. An impossible kid, but he has a good heart.
So i saw this
Tumblr media
And im like wow man Dugan lore goes crazy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like this mf was canonically brought up by these guys
So i go and look around for a bit more of his history. I look at his debut story. Usually character debuts are pretty inconsequential. Most of the time, a character is made up for a story to serve as a side character and then later become popular. Stories like Dickie Duck’s debut are rare, where the character is introduced with the plan to make them a mainstay. Dugan is one of those. But guess what his debut story is about?
Tumblr media
It’s a comic about Dugan jumping out of the comic and doing shit to the comic’s authors.
Tumblr media
Look at this his debut story is a fourth wall break what the fuck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
What even is going on. Is Dugan the most powerful character in Disney comics? Is he the Deadpool/She Hulk of the Duckverse? Does he still know about us, the readers? Is he secretly an almighty god? Is that what I should take away from this?

Scrooge: Err... thanks, Rookie! You're a good lad! On other occasions I might even give you a penny!
Tumblr media
John: Nonsense! We must always help our elders! Plus, I had to return the favor! Scrooge: Fine! But tomorrow... back to enemies!
Zio Paperone e la cupidigia di Cupido (2024)
That. Right there.
That's what makes Rockerduck apart from Glomgold. John's always fair when business is not involved (and even in business there are lines he won't cross). He's always willing to help.
The rivalry he has with Scrooge is just that: a rivalry. There's no hate there. Not even resentment. I think he resents his father much more than Scrooge. He just wants to prove himself, and the only means he has to do it is by beating the only duck who's better than him at business, the duck his father always preferred over him. He sees his father in Scrooge.
But he doesn't hate Scrooge.
John's a shark... but an honorable one ^^. Under the bark of the boastful, arrogant, cold-hearted businessman there really is a good person.
And Scrooge... Scrooge is Scrooge. He respects Rockerduck much more than he lets through. I bet he considers him a little brother (in fact, his relationship with John is very simiIar to the one he has with Gideon). I mean... he would have given John a penny!!! 😲❤️

By Disney?
For what exactly? Do you mean my last post, or rather my drawing, that I reblogged from my art blog?
Ah, that? That's just my idea, not Disney's, because the comic book canon is completely different from the usual official Disney. I put that non Disney, because I know that Disney would never do something like that, plus I'm disappointed, even angry at what Disney has been doing lately. I want those ducks to be freely available so that everyone can use them in their own ways, because I'm sick of the fact that they're always being portrayed badly lately, only in the comics have they left their mark and that's the only thing I follow from Disney. Only the comics. So if you ever get confused about that, it's my joke against the official Disney of today, but that's just my idea, not Disney's. It's inspired by the Italian Disney comic, but it barely has anything to do with today's Disney except for the characters and the name itself. I don't like how today's Disney has misused its classic characters a lot, nor does it have any understanding for them.
Sorry, that's just my opinion. I hope it's clearer for you now. Sorry for the frustration, it's not directed at you, I'm just unhappy with what today's official Disney is doing today. Thank you for asking me and I hope you're satisfied with my answers and if you need anything else, feel free to ask me.

YOUR WORKS AMAZING :))))
YOU SHOWED ME
WHAT LOVE SHOULD BE!♡
Tumblr media
MOVIE NIGHT :)
Kimi Antonelli X Reader
SUMMARY 𐙚 Movie night with your best friend turns into sleepy love confessions and groggy promises!
WARNINGS 𐙚 Just pure fluff w sleepy Kimi :)
WORD COUNT 𐙚 1K
A/N 𐙚 Yay first request!! I love Kimi so much, he deserves all the love in the world. And thank you sm for your support and your request!! Love ♥︎ Cher
DIRECTORY | MASTERLIST | REQUESTS: OPEN
Tumblr media
Movie night was a common theme within your friendship with Kimi. Often did you find yourself in a pile of blanket and junk food from the nearby gas station with a movie you’ve seen a hundred times before playing on his large flatscreen TV. It started when the two of you were little and your parents would allow for supervised sleepovers in the living room. The two of you would make a huge fort and lay in it, quietly snickering so that your mom wouldn’t catch you both wide awake and sneakily watching her romance films.
The tradition lived on! Every month one of you hosted movie night, and the other person got to pick what film to watch and bring their own snacks, that were usually shared anyway. You were patiently sat atop his faux leather sofa, your feet dangling over the edge of the ottoman you pushed up against it to extend your leg room. You tapped your fingers against the plush surface, humming under your breath. Kimi was scurrying around to get everything sorted, including the movie, which was always watched via classic DVDs. It made the experience more nostalgic when you had to hear about Disney FastPlay every five seconds, and you couldn’t skip half of the advertisements.
“I think this thing finally broke,” Kimi laughed as he held up a flashlight to the DVD player. He wiped off the top with his hand; when he glanced at his palm, it was with disgust upon seeing the surface covered in dark gray dust. He blew into the cartridge like you would an old video game, and then placed the disc on the flimsy tray. When he tried to shove it back in, it kinda just… Flopped around uselessly.
You laughed at his efforts without shame, which of course made your Italian friend shoot you a playful glare. How dare you laugh at him. “You’ve had it for way too long, I’m not surprised it’s finally falling to pieces.”
“Hey!” He spoke up, fake hurt in his tone. “She’s been with us for so long, it’s like losing a family member.”
“She?”
“She.”
You rolled your eyes and pushed yourself off the couch to help him in his fruitless endeavors. Kimi stepped aside to give you room, but kept the flashlight steadily pointed at the machinery in question. You gave it a thoughtful gesture with your hands on your chin, eyes squinted. “Hm.” You reached out, pushing the tray. It slid back in with ease, and your face lit up. “No way, first try!”
“What?! That’s so unfair.” You settled back onto the couch, and Kimi joined you a moment later- after he had collected the remote for the player.
“You just don’t have the magic touch.” You shrugged. He huffed with spirited anger, like a shared joke between the two of you.
“Oh, and you do?”
“Look, Kimi…” You shrugged, gesturing to the DVD player with a little smirk. “The technology doesn’t lie.” You both shared a laugh before dimming the lights and settling in for the movie.
You had both seen it before, but honestly those types of movies were what made this night special, because you got to commentate without disturbing the experience for the other person. Every time something embarrassing or cringy would happen, the two of you would groan and criticize the characters. Or if something made you mad, you’d go on a rant so long that Kimi would end up pausing the movie to listen. Tonight was a classic film, but that didn’t erase the various discrepancies in the plot line.
Things progressed as normal. You ate candy until you couldn’t anymore, you both talked nonstop, and Kimi fell asleep on your shoulder— Hold up.
Kimi fell asleep on your shoulder.
Yeah, no. That had never happened before! Movie night was sacred, there wasn’t supposed to be any sleeping! You flinched when you felt the weight on your arm, and you nearly had a heart attack when you realized what it was. His curls tickled your neck and jawline, soft hairs just lightly brushing against your skin. You should wake him up but… He seemed so at peace. Closed eyelids with his lips drawn into a little smile, and his eyebrows lax. Damn him for being so cute.
Nonetheless, you gently shake him awake with your other hand. He stirs to consciousness with a sleepy look on his face. Kimi sits up straight, stretching his arms out before settling back down against you. “Kimi-” You whisper in a desperate cry before he can doze off again. His eyes fling open, and he stares directly at you.
“Hm?” He groans with sleepiness, rubbing one eye with one hand.
“You can’t fall asleep, it’s the best-”
“You smell nice,” He suddenly grumbled out. His words were barely coherent, which was the first sign of an extra sleepy guy. “And your skin is so soft.”
“What-?”
“I think I love you,” He yawned right after, like it wasn’t a life changing thing to say. Your eyes went wide, and your lips fell agape in absolute shock.
“Kimi… Wait, don’t fall asleep again- What do you mean?!” He could barely keep his eyes open. Your loudness disturbing his peace made a pout form on his lips. Too. Damn. Cute.
“I love you,” He admitted. The boy fell forward, pressing his face into your neck again. You couldn’t believe what you were hearing. Your arms wrapped around him, hands cradling the back of his head against you. You could hear a soft noise of delight come from the boy as he drifted back into a state of calmness.
“I…” You looked down. He probably wasn’t even listening, so no matter what you said, it wouldn’t matter. “I love you too…”
You decided to let him sleep— He probably needed it. So, you relaxed against the back of the couch, holding him close to you. You finished the movie knowing, in the back of your mind, that you’d have a lot of things to say come the morning. But for now, you chose peace. You chose to enjoy the quiet filled with requited emotion.

Stay Close!
Request: None
Pairing: Dad!Pierre Gasly x Toddler Daughter!reader
Warnings: None, just fluff !!
Summary: Baby Gasly gets a bit excited and runs off at Disney World.
Notice: Yes, this is from @heyitspapayaontop. That is my second blog. Thank you<3
Tumblr media
On a sunny Thursday in early June, the vibrant colors of Disney World beckoned families from all over the world, each one ready to immerse themselves in the enchanting atmosphere. Sunlight sparkled off the famous Cinderella Castle, and laughter filled the air as children darted past with balloons bobbing above their heads. Among those families was the Y/N Gasly, pulling her mother and her father closer to a teacup ride. The small family was finally enjoying a rare break between the 2025 Miami GP and the Italian GP .
Pierre and Kika shared a smile, soaking in every moment of happiness. Y/N was a sprightly three-year-old, full of energy and wonder. Her big brown eyes sparkled with excitement as she absorbed the magical sights and sounds of Disney—a place where her dreams were finally coming true.
“Look, Papa! Mickey Mouse!” Y/N exclaimed, pointing toward a character dressed in a large mouse costume that was happily waving to the children around him.
“Do you want to go meet him, Y/N?” Kika asked, kneeling down to her daughter's height. The little girl nodded vigorously, her curls bouncing as she became momentarily lost in her excitement.
As they made their way through the throngs of families, Y/N was torn between the allure of meeting Mickey and the enchanting rides that surrounded them. After a leisurely stroll and a few detours for photos with whimsically-costumed characters, they arrived at the iconic meeting spot. Y/N's face lit up when she saw Mickey, and she rushed forward, pulling her smiling parents along.
With a bright grin, she hugged Mickey while Kika snapped a photo—this was one for the family album. Y/N grinned happily at her mother's phone, her small face beaming with delight.
Afterward, Pierre suggested a visit to the nearby Dumbo the Flying Elephant ride. “Let’s go, Y/N! It’s going to be so much fun!”
“Yay! I want to fly!” Y/N squealed, her little feet bouncing with anticipation. They waited in line, and Pierre hoisted her onto his shoulders. “Higher, Papa! Higher!”
Their laughter rang out as they finally climbed onto the ride, with Y/N flapping her arms as if she could truly fly. As the ride spun happily in the air, Kika watched them, her heart swelling with love for both her husband and their little girl.
As the afternoon wore on, Y/N, enthralled by the sights and sounds, didn't notice when her parents stopped to take a photo at another attraction. Peering curiously at the giant castle, she subtly slipped away, eager to explore the magical world around her.
It was only when Pierre and Kika turned back to find their daughter wasn't next to them and panic-gripped them faster than a car when the lights went out. “Y/N?” Pierre called, scanning the vicinity. “Y/N?” He repeated louder than the first time.
Kika grabbed Pierre's forearm, a wave of anxiety crashing over her. “We need to find her, Pierre!”
The couple dashed in different directions, Kika’s heart racing. They desperately checked around every corner, calling her name, but there was no response. As the world seemed to close in, Pierre suddenly shouted, “Over there! That way!”
Meanwhile, Y/N had wandered towards the beautiful flowers, her eyes wide with wonder at the sights of colorful petals and swirling displays. She marveled at everything, completely oblivious to the worry that swelled behind her.
“Y/N, stay close!” A voice rang around her, but it sounded distant. “Papa?” she called, her little voice barely above a whisper as she turned in circles, searching.
Just then, another familiar face turned the corner—Charles, who she often called her her “Monny”,or her “Uncle Charlo.” He had taken a break from his own visit at the park to enjoy some downtime before the next race. Spotting the little girl with big, worried eyes, he quickly approached her.
“Y/N! What are you doing here all alone?” he asked gently, kneeling down and putting his hands on her waist in a gentle, protective manner.
“Uncle Charlo!” she exclaimed, relief flooding her tiny features. “I lost my mama and papa!”
Charles’ heart melted at the sight of the little girl, and he immediately took charge. “Don’t worry, mon amour. I’ll help you find them. Let’s go look together.”
With that, he gently took her hand, leading her through the bustling crowd. “Can you tell me what they have on today, mon chéri?” he asked, guiding her gently along.
Y/N frowned, thinking hard. “Papa has a blue shirt, and Mama has a pink dress!”
Charles smiled. “Alright, let’s look for blue and pink!”
As they passed groups of people, Charles kept an eye out for Pierre’s unmistakable figure, his heart racing as they checked stalls and rides. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, he spotted Kika and Pierre not far away, still scanning the throng of visiting families.
“Look over there, Y/N!” Charles pointed, excitement bubbling in his voice.
“Papa!” Y/N cried out and began to run towards her parents, pulling Charles along with her.
Both Pierre and Kika turned at the sound of their daughter’s voice and blinked in amazement at the sight before them. Charles, kneeling with Y/N by his side, smiled at them, a comforting gesture that reassured Kika and Pierre amidst their stress.
“Thank you, Charles!” Pierre exclaimed with immense relief as he knelt to scoop Y/N into his arms.
“Mama, I found Uncle Charlo!” Y/N beamed, completely overjoyed.
Kika rushed over to hug them both tightly, her heart still racing with the remnants of worry. “Oh, Y/N! You scared us!”
“Let’s stay together now, okay?” Kika said as she pulled Y/N closer, grateful to have her back.
“Okay!” Y/N nodded, oblivious to the tension that had just passed.
Charles grinned, enjoying the warmth of their family moment. “I think the magic of Disney worked too well today, huh?” he joked, tousling Y/N’s hair.
As the group wandered deeper into the park together, laughter erupted again, filling the air with joy. Y/N continued to chatter excitedly, her words a fantastic blend of French and English. Family, laughter, and love surrounded her; this day was one she would remember fondly, filled with the magic of Disney and the strength of family.
A/N: I LOVED THIS ONE BUT I HAD WAR MAKING THE DIVIDER??? my reqs are always open loves<3

This is completely incorrect. Italians are not the only ones who care about Donald Duck and who write the most about him and publish comics about him. I am a fan of Italian comics and many authors and I really prefer many styles of Italian artists, but many people forget that there are other authors who create great Donald Duck comics. Dutch comics in particular as well as Egmont comics which are published in Denmark, but sold widely in the Scandinavian countries and throughout Central Europe. And so in my country. And there's some fun stuff in there, and I'd say they're close to the spirit of the Carl Barks comics. Just look at these covers.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Unfortunately, it is not appreciated enough, but those comics are certainly published and they are very popular. Not to mention that Donald is particularly popular in Finland.
Also, Disney comics are published in Latin America especially in Brazil, but more related to Donald's friend Jose Carioca, his friends and his family.
By the way, Italians are the ones who mostly use Mickey Mouse for the right purposes and who is most often performed.
I certainly love Italian comics, but don't neglect the rest of Europe.
LMAO just read someone on Twitter try their best to connect the fact that italians prefer Donald Duck over Mickey Mouse to our deep rooted fascism

Yes. You are racist. (Buckle up, this is gonna be a long one)
So approximately half a year since the premier of the Disney+ Percy Jackson show, and almost two years since the announcement of the Trio's casting, I would like to take this moment to look back at the insane, racist and anti-black backlash that was launched at Leah Sava Jeffries and a few other cast members from the PJO fandom.
I'm not concerned with the trolls who are openly racist, who resorted to racist slurs and outright threats, everyone agrees that they "took it too far". I want to talk about the rest of you, the "I'm not racist, but.." people, the "What's wrong with wanting book accuracy?" people. Just to let you know, for the unasked question... yes, yes you are.
I've noticed the Percy Jackson fandom has been lording some weird superiority complex over a certain *unnamed* fandom that has fallen out of grace due to their recently outed bigot of an author. But honestly, y'all are not much different. The amount of vitriol and anti-blackness I have seen from this fandom (beyond just bullying a 12 year old girl), y'all don't have a leg to stand on.
Below is a breakdown of the most common arguments I have seen used to justify y'alls absolutely insane bigotry. I am going to explain why none of these justify the amount of anger and vitriol y'all have sent towards Leah, Rick or any of the cast.
I am not here to argue, and this is not a democracy. I am giving you a chance for some self-reflection and to understand that this pattern of violence directed towards POC actors (mostly black women) has never been justified in the name of "book accuracy"/"comic book accuracy"/"ending forced diversity" or whatever other excuses y'all try to make up.
If you still try to justify or argue further for any of these points, I will just block you. I am not coddling you through your racism. If anyone has seen any other dumb arguments floating around that I might've missed, feel free to sound off in the comments.
She's not book accurate:
Neither is Percy, Luke, Grover, Dionysus, Poseidon, and just about every other named character.
Rick already made it clear that physical features were not the priority with casting, rather it was actors that embodied the role. So why are the biggest complaints about Annabeth and Zeus? 🤔
What? You're gonna say everyone else got backlash too? I see you trying to obscure the main issue by playing dumb 😉
See my friend, yes, there were one or two comments about how Percy's hair should be black or how Luke is supposed to be blonde, but as soon as Leah was cast, none of those actors got any significant backlash. In fact, Walker and Charlie literally have an army of fan girls at their beck and call, calling them the perfect Percy and Luke, despite neither being "Book accurate". But then again, have we not observed the pattern of White boy of the month vs WOC to hate for the year? (Yes, I know Charlie isn't white. Further adds to the irony, doesn't it).
Why include character descriptions if you won't stay true to them, you cry? Well, my dear sweet moron, see, books and TV are two different mediums. Because in literature, you can't *Literally* SEE the characters, the author has to add descriptions to paint a picture in your mind, in TV... that's not an issue. So unless the character's appearance is necessary to the plot (like Luke's scar, or Nico being Italian) the show runners can actually focus on more important things.. Like ACTING and PERSONALITY.
2. It's just not how I imagined her:
News flash, babe! ANNABETH ISN'T REAL. None of these character are. They are concepts that originated from the brain of Mr. Rick Riordan. It doesn't matter how YOU imagined her. There are millions of people who read these books that imagined her several different ways. When the creator of the character watched Leah's audition and said, 'Yes! She embodies the character I created!", your imagined version of Annabeth ceased to matter. And guess what? The books still exist... they have not been burned. Your version of Annabeth has not disappeared. Go read the books.
3. Zeus can't be black/Gods have to be Greek/*Insert Character* can't be black:
Y'all did not read the books, I swear. You have to be fake fans looking to troll atp.
The gods move based off the center of western civilization. They change their forms/environment to reflect the culture they are occupying (they did it with Rome, now they're doing it with America). The gods change forms all the time. How we see them is not their true form as a mortal would disintegrate if they were to see their true form.
America is a cultural melting pot (specifically NY where Mount Olympus is now based). If the god's choose forms that reflect the current society they inhabit, they could literally be any race (keep in mind NYC is only 33% white).
All of this is literally SPELLED OUT in the Lightning Thief.
Furthermore, if you're going to push the ethnically Greek thing... Poseidon is British with a British accent and Hermes is Latino. The only ethnically Greek actor is Dionysus (who still doesn't look book accurate). Y'all are sounding like some white supremacists because do you forget that race is a social construct?
Before the advent of the transatlantic slave trade, I can promise you that the Greeks and the Anglo-Saxons did NOT view themselves as the same people. Why are y'all not taking issue with Poseidon's actor then?
Also, Percy Jackson has canonically had a slew of explicitly black demigods since the second book (including Harriet Tubman, which I have mixed feelings about 😭), so I genuinely have no idea where some of y'all are going with this point.
4. She was our smart blonde representation:
Don't pmo. I swear to God!
White, blonde women have NEVER been excluded from Hollywood. Representation is not something you lacked. The dumb blonde stereotype was a simple branch off of a larger misogynistic "dumb woman" stereotype. It has not truly been relevant since the mid 2000s outside of childish jokes.
This iteration of Percy Jackson will probably not go beyond the first 5 books, based off pacing and the age of the actors. So here's a fun game: 5 bucks to the first person who can find me a quote in the first 5 Percy Jackson books, where Annabeth laments her insecurities about being blonde (hint: there aren't any).
Also, her blonde hair does not hold her back at Camp because she is head of the Athena Cabin who are highly respected (and guess what?), ARE ALL BLONDE!
Her insecurities about her hair color are two or three lines at most in the later books, not this fundamental, core part of her character y'all all of a sudden wanna pretend it was. And guess what, as a non-blonde black girl, I was able to read those scenes of Annabeth feeling undervalued because of her looks and relate to her even if she didn't look like me at the time.
Why all of a sudden can y'all not do that with a black Annabeth? By every metric black girls are undervalued for their intelligence in academia more than white girls are, regardless of hair color. So your little representation of a woman undervalued by her looks would still hold. Do y'all dehumanize black women so much, that you are incapable of empathizing with show!Annabeth's plight in the way I could with Book!Annabeth simply because she doesn't look exactly like you?
Your issue isn't that she isn't blonde, it's that she is NOT WHITE.
Furthermore, Becky Riordan had tweeted previously (before the show was even cast) that Annabeth never needed to be blonde (probably recalling the BS y'all put Alexandra Daddario through), so even if they cast a white Annabeth, the blonde hair was never a guarantee. the author and producers all agree that it was not a significant part of her character. It's been a non-issue since day one.
Also, stop acting like smart blondes are rare in media... If you don't go watch some Legally blonde, Iron Man (Pepper Potts), Zack and Cody (Maddie), Liv and Maddie, FMAB (Winry), Captain Marvel, She-Ra, Buffy, The boys (starlight) etc. etc., and go sit down somewhere 🙄🙄🙄 (those were literally all things I've watched recently, off the top of my head, btw 💀)
5. It's not about race, but...:
Yes it is. It was always bout race. No other actors got as much hate as Leah. Her grandmother and other family members on IG had to mute their comments because they were getting so many threats.
Alexandra Daddario had to come to her defense on Twitter. Rick had to put out an official statement on his website. This girl has endured years of psychological torment for simply having the best audition. No one else is book accurate, no one else is ethnically Greek (except Jason Mantzoukas). Walker literally has British and German ancestry.
Why was she being called racial slurs on reddit and in youtube comments?
I know what you're gonna say, "I actually had problems with the entire cast", "I actually had a bigger issue with Walker's hair color", blah blah blah. Then why aren't you in Walker's comment sections? Why are you only making your displeasure known on posts defending/advocating for Leah? Why is she always your first example of 'wrong casting"?
Well, she "looks the most different"... Look up the term "scapegoating".
"Oh, I don't agree with the harassment. I just don't like the casting." Guess what? She's already been cast. They are not going to uncast her. What do you get out of still complaining about it.
All the vitriol you're stirring about her when you complain about her on Social media, it is directing people to send her hate, even if you're not writing it directly. It's is not enough to "not agree" with the racism, it is your duty to actively prevent it. And btw, these are young gen z actors, they are active on social media. They see the edits of themselves (even comment on it) and they most likely see these little "harmless" complaints you're posting. Are your upset feelings really worth contributing to the racist dogpile on this poor girl?
6. Why couldn't they atleast give her blonde braids?:
Why should they? Y'all wanted blonde because of the "dumb blonde" trope... that doesn't apply to POC.
A blonde black girl is gonna be viewed the same as a non-blonde black girl (or at worst, someone might decide she's "ratchet" or some shit for wearing colored hair). What difference would it make?
Why shouldn't Walker dye his hair, then?
7. Annabeth has Gray eyes:
Less than 3% of the global population has "gray eyes". Even if they cast a white actor, they would've needed contacts. Her being black is not the reason Annabeth's eyes aren't gray. Simply put, it is a plot element they removed, like the whole "names have power" element, or Ares having flames for eyes, or Dionysus using his powers to grow strawberries at Camp.
That's how adaptations work. Unnecessary plot elements are cut to save time and budget. This has nothing to do with her casting. They probably also didn't want to make child actors wear contacts (not a new practice).
8. Even if Rick chose her, he was wrong/Disney is forcing him to be okay with it:
Where do I start? Rick created the character. He can't be wrong. Do y'all have no self-awareness? Death of the author has no place here, because y'all are hung up on an aspect of the character that is not relevant to her arc or development.
Y'all's justification for wanting a "book accurate" Annabeth is that she was such an inspirational and important character growing up, and yet your behavior is so in conflict with the character you claim means so much to you. You're narrow minded, dismissive of bigotry and injustice, and disrespectful to the wishes of the creator of your favorite character; everything that Annabeth would never be. Y'all were never genuine fans of the books. You're bigots that needed an outlet for your rage.
Keep in mind, Rick has said countless times that PercaBeth directly mirrors his relationship with his wife. Y'all think he would have allowed them to cast someone who doesn't live up to the woman who has been by his side for decades? The mother of his children?
Regarding Disney forcing him, show me one piece of direct evidence that proves Disney in anyway pressured Rick to cast her. Cuz if you can't, that's baseless speculation. And if you have to resort to baseless speculation, maybe try to examine why it's so important to you to hold on to this belief.
9. So, I'm racist because I hate "race swapping"?:
To start, there is a difference between "race swapping" and "color blind casting". Often times, when y'all complain about the former, you're actually mad about the latter.
It would be "race swapping" if Rick and the team decided ahead of time that they wanted a black Annabeth and ONLY allowed black actors to audition. But the actual reality was that they accepted auditions from everyone (there were white actors and non-black poc that also auditioned for the role) and chose the best person who embodied the role. They didn't "make Annabeth black" and they didn't "make Zeus black", they cast black actors for those roles.
Y'all think you're being slick with your wording. Dismissing that is implying that they did not earn their roles fair and square. Which is racist. It's the equivalent of going up to a black college student and telling them they only got in because of affirmative action. You're dismissing the achievements of a person solely because of their racial background.
For all you people complaining about "unfairness" and "forced diversity", I would think hiring based on merit would appeal to you 🤔
71% of theatrical Hollywood leads were white in 2024 in comparison to 29% POC and you still think "black washing" is a thing? You still get this angry over a black person fairly earning a role because you think in a time where Hollywood only knows to do remakes and adaptations, that the majority of lead roles still *have* to be reserved for white actors?
Once again, white people have never been excluded from Hollywood for being white. Representation has never been something you lacked nor is it something you can lose. Your anger comes from seeing a black face where you think they don't belong. Because you feel you are owed a disproportion of representation in Hollywood.
10. Woke agenda/DEI/Forced Diversity:
If you are unironically using any of these terms in a negative light, it's already too late for me to reason with you. Look up the term "dog whistle". If you are sharing the same terminology with Elon Musk and his fanboys, maybe reevaluate some things.
POC are objectively underrepresented and have been historically excluded through actual laws and policies in Hollywood. There is no such thing as "forced diversity", you have bought in to a right wing conspiracy theory.
"Woke" is a term that was intentionally appropriated from the black community. It originally meant being aware of injustice and systematic threats to the community and is now being weaponized by bigots. Good job.
Diversity and inclusion is a good thing.
11. But POC deserve to have their own stories told:
We do. And we have been fighting for it for over a century now, and we've made great strides, no thanks to y'all.
No thanks to y'all gaslighting us about how little representation we get or that representation matters at all. No thanks to y'all pushing the idea that POC can't sell globally and obscuring POC actors in international promos. No thanks to y'all continuing to whitewash even to this day (Bullet train, the beguiled, gods of Egypt, atla, every portrayal of Jesus ever, etc.). No thanks to y'all calling every piece of media that has more than one black lead and more than one queer couple "woke". No thanks to y'all throwing a fit every time a black person in a fantasy setting isn't a slave.
Fact of the matter is, y'all never cared about POC "getting their own stories", you're only parroting our own words back to us now as a politically correct way of saying, "leave white roles alone" lmao
Well fun fact, actors of color getting opportunities to play lead roles and allowing poc to "tell their own stories" are not mutually exclusive. If y'all cared that much, instead of bullying a 12 year old actress, you could actually support up and coming independent POC writers, directors, and studios 😱
12. Studios need to stop "setting up" actors of color:
Do me a favor and google the term DARVO.
Your racism is not the fault of the studios for giving a POC actor a role that they earned. It is not up to the rest of society to tiptoe around racists to avoid their vitriol. It is our responsibility to hold them accountable and protect minorities from unwarranted hate. At most, you can say it's the responsibility of the studios to provide adequate support to POC actors who face this backlash.
At the end of the day, Hollywood only allows very few spots for POC actors (especially WOC), while simultaneously pushing a new white boy every month to put in everything. Putting minorities in these roles that are usually closed to them, usually opens the door to more actors of color than before.
Brandy being cast as Cinderella did a lot to push her into the mainstream (yes, she was already extremely famous in the black community atp), Halle Berry being the first, black, bond girl literally shot her to icon status, and even going as far back to what Anna Mae Wong did for Asian American actresses with her "femme fatale" roles.
At the end of the day, even with the backlash, *some* rep does more good for POC actors than *no* rep. The solution to racist backlash isn't to take away those opportunities, but rather to not be racist??? 🙄
Also, for everyone that claims that "POC race-swapping" is just as bad as "white-washing", despite white washing having a longer history and objectively causing more harm, note how the backlash to white washing never lasts as long as the harassment that POC get.
Like, no one brings up Scarlett Johansson's ghost in the shell role anymore, but you can best believe Candace Patton is still fending off racist trolls. As much as people hated the atla movie, people moved on quick from Nicola Peltz playing Katara since she was just a kid that accepted the role (re: daddy bought her the role), but y'all would not have any of that consideration for Leah Sava Jeffries.
But I digress...
13. What if we made Tiana white? Wakanda white? Hazel white...:
Ah, my favorite inane point. I was so excited to get here :)
See, I could start out by pointing out how "White washing" and casting a POC actor as a traditionally white character are not equivalent.
I could point out the history of hollywood ACTIVELY excluding POC actors and POC stories. I could point out how grossly over represented white people are in hollywood. I could point out that POC characters are so few in comparison that whitewashing them causes actual harm, where white people have never lacked rep.
I could point out how, because poc characters and stories are so often tokenized that their racial/cultural background is often directly tied to their character's identity, in opposition to a lot of white characters, since hollywood treats white as the "Default".
See, I could make all those points, but the thing is, the people who make this argument already know all that. They are trying to waste time by drawing me into a pointless circular argument that will sum up to "fair is fair", while ignoring all the context and nuance I previously provided.
So you know what? Forget it. Let me play your game.
I am actually fine with a white Tiana. Would it make sense, for her and her family to experience Jim Crow era racism, in the south while white? No. But we can look past it. Disney was never known for historical accuracy anyway 🤷🏿‍♀️
However, in exchange, the live action frozen will have a black Elsa and Anna, live action Rapunzel will be black, live action Merida will be black, we're re-filming Cinderella and Beauty and the beast to cast a black belle and Cindy, snow white will need to be recast as black, and we also get aurora whenever the live action sleeping beauty is announced. But then y'all can keep Tiana, deal?
You want a white T'Challa? Fine! (I'm partial to Ryan gosling), in the meantime, we'll be recasting Iron man, Captain America (Steve version), Bruce banner, Thor, Loki, hawk eye, black widow, ant man, captain marvel, Bucky, Peter Parker etc. All the avengers and their side characters, then y'all can have Sam Wilson, war machine and the whole of Wakanda (will it make sense that a sole, hidden, African nation is randomly made up of white people? Who cares? We get the avengers!).
You want white Hazel? You got her! I hope you have no problem with us taking Percy, Nico, Will, Poseidon, Jason, calypso, Rachel, Tyson, Silena, the stoll brothers, Sally Jackson, Hades, Hepheastus, ares, etc. But y'all can have Hazel and Beckendorf.
If we're gonna do this, let's commit all the way. Fair is fair, after all.
14. Leah isn't as "pretty" as Book Annabeth/Movie Annabeth:
I wish I could say this wasn't a genuine point I had read, but when all else fails, they will always go for a woman's appearance.
Now first of all, as a rule, I will never hold black women to white beauty standards. Our hair will never be long and silky enough, our nose will never be narrow enough, our skin will never be fair enough and our eyes will never be light enough (Might I recommend Toni Morrison, when you get the chance?). But Leah is unfairly gorgeous idc what any of you say, and you're not gonna have me use my defense of Leah as an opportunity to bash Alexandra either because she is also beautiful. These two queens slayed to the best of their abilities within this toxic ass fandom.
I find it funny, however, that so many of you harped on the "blonde" issue because you thought it was important that Annabeth be seen beyond just her looks, but quickly devolve to bashing an actress's looks when it comes to why she's not right for this role 🤔
I would also like to sincerely apologize that the 13 year old girl they cast in the show, wasn't as sexually attractive to you as the 24 year old woman they cast in the movie and sexualized through like 25% of her screen time (I'm actually not sorry. You're very weird if this is an actual point for you).
15. I don't agree with sending hate to the actor, but she's just not right for the role:
Once again, what are you doing by complaining about her casting on no other basis than her race?
The creator of the character said she embodied the role. She has already been cast, and Disney would be in a legal/production hell to recast her atp. Just because you're not directly leaving comments on her social media doesn't mean you're not part of the hate mob.
No matter how you look at it, your issues with her casting come from a very entitled and narrow-minded place. When you join in on these dialogues you are bolstering a sentiment that pushes more people to harass this teenage girl. When you leave these "harmless" complaints, on show content, fan posts or posts defending her, she's liable to read them because the cast regularly interact with fans online.
What do you have to say that is so important that it trumps protecting a young girl from the long-staying trauma of racism, of being told she doesn't deserve something she worked for because of how she was born?
16. I can't even criticize the show without being called racist:
Get. Over. Yourself.
Y'all are not the victim. Have fans of the show gotten protective of Leah and the young cast? Yes.
With good reason. This fandom is unbearably toxic.
Racism outweighs your need for a "perfect adaptation", sorry.
If you explain yourself properly and keep your critiques fair (like, even I don't think this was a perfect season, and will be sharing my thoughts shortly), no one is gonna call you racist.
You're preempting with that because in all honesty, you're probably planning to use your "critiques" of the show to pivot to one of the many points that I just outlined, and you want to pre-empt the criticism.
If a black Annabeth is the end all be all for you, just don't watch the show, no one's holding a gun to your head. Geez.
17. I'm Black/POC and I don't agree...:
Hey, Candace Owens... No one gives a shit.
First of all, for all the "I'm POC and I don't agree" people, you don't speak for us. Anti-blackness is rampant in just about every culture globally. You being not-white doesn't somehow make you less prone to hating black people.
But for the "I'm black and I don't agree" leftovers (assuming you're not just a 👩🏼‍💻 behind a keyboard). Black people are not a monolith. You're not obligated to think a certain way because you're black.
But consider why you're putting yourself up as a barrier to protect this hate mob. It's one thing to just state why you don't like Leah's casting, but to start off your spiel with "I'm actually black" as a way to weaponize the very identity politics you're critiquing... very strange. Not to mention, what are you defending?
The black community is coming together to defend one of our own, a kid who has been receiving death threats since she was 12, and this is when you feel the need to back the opposition?
I mean whatever... sometimes the house slaves would snitch to the master. There will always be some of y'all in the woodwork. It is what it is.
But when the exact ideology you defend is turned against you, when a Baltimore elected official is being accused of getting his job through "DEI", when conservatives are claiming that they wouldn't "trust a black pilot", don't decide that's where you'll finally draw your line in the sand.
All that being said, This is my Annabeth:
May every tongue that rose against Leah Sava Jeffries Shrivel and die in 2025 🙏🏿 My girl will keep winning ❤️

Stay close!
Request: None
Pairing: Dad!Pierre Gasly x Toddler Daughter!reader
Warnings: None, just fluff !!
Summary: Baby Gasly gets a bit excited and runs off at Disney World.
Tumblr media
On a sunny Thursday in early June, the vibrant colors of Disney World beckoned families from all over the world, each one ready to immerse themselves in the enchanting atmosphere. Sunlight sparkled off the famous Cinderella Castle, and laughter filled the air as children darted past with balloons bobbing above their heads. Among those families was the Y/N Gasly, pulling her mother and her father closer to a teacup ride. The small family was finally enjoying a rare break between the 2025 Miami GP and the Italian GP .
Pierre and Kika shared a smile, soaking in every moment of happiness. Y/N was a sprightly three-year-old, full of energy and wonder. Her big brown eyes sparkled with excitement as she absorbed the magical sights and sounds of Disney—a place where her dreams were finally coming true.
“Look, Papa! Mickey Mouse!” Y/N exclaimed, pointing toward a character dressed in a large mouse costume that was happily waving to the children around him.
“Do you want to go meet him, Y/N?” Kika asked, kneeling down to her daughter's height. The little girl nodded vigorously, her curls bouncing as she became momentarily lost in her excitement.
As they made their way through the throngs of families, Y/N was torn between the allure of meeting Mickey and the enchanting rides that surrounded them. After a leisurely stroll and a few detours for photos with whimsically-costumed characters, they arrived at the iconic meeting spot. Y/N's face lit up when she saw Mickey, and she rushed forward, pulling her smiling parents along.
With a bright grin, she hugged Mickey while Kika snapped a photo—this was one for the family album. Y/N grinned happily at her mother's phone, her small face beaming with delight.
Afterward, Pierre suggested a visit to the nearby Dumbo the Flying Elephant ride. “Let’s go, Y/N! It’s going to be so much fun!”
“Yay! I want to fly!” Y/N squealed, her little feet bouncing with anticipation. They waited in line, and Pierre hoisted her onto his shoulders. “Higher, Papa! Higher!”
Their laughter rang out as they finally climbed onto the ride, with Y/N flapping her arms as if she could truly fly. As the ride spun happily in the air, Kika watched them, her heart swelling with love for both her husband and their little girl.
As the afternoon wore on, Y/N, enthralled by the sights and sounds, didn't notice when her parents stopped to take a photo at another attraction. Peering curiously at the giant castle, she subtly slipped away, eager to explore the magical world around her.
It was only when Pierre and Kika turned back to find their daughter wasn't next to them and panic-gripped them faster than a car when the lights went out. “Y/N?” Pierre called, scanning the vicinity. “Y/N?” He repeated louder than the first time.
Kika grabbed Pierre's forearm, a wave of anxiety crashing over her. “We need to find her, Pierre!”
The couple dashed in different directions, Kika’s heart racing. They desperately checked around every corner, calling her name, but there was no response. As the world seemed to close in, Pierre suddenly shouted, “Over there! That way!”
Meanwhile, Y/N had wandered towards the beautiful flowers, her eyes wide with wonder at the sights of colorful petals and swirling displays. She marveled at everything, completely oblivious to the worry that swelled behind her.
“Y/N, stay close!” A voice rang around her, but it sounded distant. “Papa?” she called, her little voice barely above a whisper as she turned in circles, searching.
Just then, another familiar face turned the corner—Charles, who she often called her her “Monny”,or her “Uncle Charlo.” He had taken a break from his own visit at the park to enjoy some downtime before the next race. Spotting the little girl with big, worried eyes, he quickly approached her.
“Y/N! What are you doing here all alone?” he asked gently, kneeling down and putting his hands on her waist in a gentle, protective manner.
“Uncle Charlo!” she exclaimed, relief flooding her tiny features. “I lost my mama and papa!”
Charles’ heart melted at the sight of the little girl, and he immediately took charge. “Don’t worry, mon amour. I’ll help you find them. Let’s go look together.”
With that, he gently took her hand, leading her through the bustling crowd. “Can you tell me what they have on today, mon chéri?” he asked, guiding her gently along.
Y/N frowned, thinking hard. “Papa has a blue shirt, and Mama has a pink dress!”
Charles smiled. “Alright, let’s look for blue and pink!”
As they passed groups of people, Charles kept an eye out for Pierre’s unmistakable figure, his heart racing as they checked stalls and rides. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, he spotted Kika and Pierre not far away, still scanning the throng of visiting families.
“Look over there, Y/N!” Charles pointed, excitement bubbling in his voice.
“Papa!” Y/N cried out and began to run towards her parents, pulling Charles along with her.
Both Pierre and Kika turned at the sound of their daughter’s voice and blinked in amazement at the sight before them. Charles, kneeling with Y/N by his side, smiled at them, a comforting gesture that reassured Kika and Pierre amidst their stress.
“Thank you, Charles!” Pierre exclaimed with immense relief as he knelt to scoop Y/N into his arms.
“Mama, I found Uncle Charlo!” Y/N beamed, completely overjoyed.
Kika rushed over to hug them both tightly, her heart still racing with the remnants of worry. “Oh, Y/N! You scared us!”
“Let’s stay together now, okay?” Kika said as she pulled Y/N closer, grateful to have her back.
“Okay!” Y/N nodded, oblivious to the tension that had just passed.
Charles grinned, enjoying the warmth of their family moment. “I think the magic of Disney worked too well today, huh?” he joked, tousling Y/N’s hair.
As the group wandered deeper into the park together, laughter erupted again, filling the air with joy. Y/N continued to chatter excitedly, her words a fantastic blend of French and English. Family, laughter, and love surrounded her; this day was one she would remember fondly, filled with the magic of Disney and the strength of family.
A/N: I LOVED THIS ONE BUT I HAD WAR MAKING THE DIVIDER??? my reqs are always open loves<3
