[pjo series thoughts - spoilers ep. 1]
First note is a biggie: When Sally starts describing the story of Perseus in the museum, I had to pause. It starts with Perseus and his mother thrown into a box and cast out to sea, to be forgotten about, to die basically. It made me think about how Sally and Percy basically grew up alone, how that situation mirrors Perseus in the myths, and the fact that in the myths the mother-son pair were 'surrounded by sea' (the exact words Sally uses to tell the story, btw) just adds to the parallel.
In the books, Sally describes Poseidon essentially going to the sea and never coming back. In the show, we meet her properly at the apartment and she's standing in the rain, surrounded by water. In short, the 'surrounded by' part of that story is equivalent to 'being shaped by'. Their lives – both Sally-Percy and Perseus and his mom in the myths – had a large part of their lives determined by Poseidon, determined by the sea.
——
• Bobofit? just makes me think of Boba Fett and now I'm picturing Nancy fanart as a star wars clone XD
• Eddie the Super is a bro in this adaptation. I agree with what I've heard some other folks saying around these fandom parts, I like this change from Eddie being one of the poker buddies to being at odds with Gabe, too.
• Sally Jackson listening to 'logical' by Olivia Rodrigo. Sally Jackson being an Olivia fan!!!!
• Gabe and Sally's relationship here... it's not good sure, but in this adaptation, I can see sort of how they could have started, maybe at first it not being about 'protecting Percy', as they sort of have a banter here that doesn't just seem like a watered-down/kid-friendly version of a dysfunctional marriage but also like the remnants of some sort of clicking. Of course, I want to believe that Gabe is still an awful human being, and yeah, the show portrays that he's a slum, a verbal dick towards everyone in his life, has abusive habits like checking Sally's phone without permission, so I still don't like him here. But, there's a difference between series!Gabe and book!Gabe in which book!Gabe was just painted as cut and dry, black and white awful, like the worlds slimiest, grimiest old fool. Maybe it's the act of seeing it instead of reading about it since in the book we ARE the narrator – a twelve-year-old boy with a limited worldview and seeing things more as cut-dry/black-white – and here we're more on the outside looking in, so we can approach the world with a more objective viewpoint, and see details not as 'good' or 'bad' but as just details. Just something like 'life just be like that sometimes' kind of way.
• 'Like a puzzle with have the wrong pieces' hit home for me. Also, describing Percy's attention slips through the mist as 'daydreaming' is such a good way to relate ADHD to his demigodness. I like how the series described Percy's mind and disabilities better so far than the books.
• 'Something that felt real to you that no one else can see?' The way Sally delivers this line... UGH so good at being very subtle in suggesting that she can relate to Percy personally here, hinting at her ability to see through the mist as well despite being 100% mortal. Or maybe that's just me knowing things revealed later in the series and subplanting that onto the now.
• It's hard explaining greek gods being real to your son. LOL undercut perfectly with Walker's comedy ("like– like Jesus?"). Also, Walker's acting? 10/10
• putting Percy and Grover at odds in the series just like in the books but each do it differently – in the books, Percy ditches Grover bc he's acting weird and it's stressing Percy out. In the series, Grover is the one that does the dirty deed and makes sure Percy gets expelled from Yancy. Either case, they both put tension in the relationship (to be repaired later in the narrative). So, before you say anything bad about the differences between book and series, think about the emotional part of it. The series speaks to the HEART of the scene, of the story, even if it's not a word-for-word retelling with visuals.
• "He is brutal, he is relentless, he–" "He is still wearing underpants." Classic Percy comedy akdjfhgklsjdfg I'm in love
• Sally setting Grover up for his emotional journey on the quest by making him swear to protect Percy against all monsters/threats that come his way.
• Oh god, it's even more heartwrenching the second time watching Percy watch his mom "die" – the silence that encompasses the moment, all sounds drowning away, the rain so crystal clear on his face, and his eyes... god. so good.
• I love the last scene. The campers' voices coming out of the blackness, the blackness fading into a hazy purple sunset as Percy's vision come to. Annabeth's voice saying "he must be the one,' as she so wants him to be the one that will bring her along on a quest. just the way the framing lands at the end, with the subtle movement of camper silhouettes shifting away and Chiron front and centre, welcoming Percy (and thus the audience) into the world (into the series). Such a good introduction. So, so good.

⟢ - Notes on 𝐆𝐋𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐈𝐗
Tumblr media
Oldest child of Lusamine Delacroix and Mohn Cousteau-Delacroix, age 14.
Harsh, aggressive, untrusting and ill-tempered. Inherited his mother's rebellious nature.
The type to attack first and ask questions later.
Thinks lowly of the Aether Foundation as a whole, and has been suspicious of his mother's motivations in recent years.
An enforcer for the Team Skull gang, acts as an aggressor for Guzma when necessary, though he has little to no warmth for the other members, and it is mutual.
Fiercely protective of his little sister, to a self-destructive point.
He hates outer space. No, the kid absolutely hates it. Don't talk to him about it. Don't show him anything from it. It's ruined his life. He hates it here.
Has been taking up mechanical work as a hobby, has learned how to hotwire cars while hanging around Skull.
This kid can hold so much angst.
Did not inherit much, if any, Ultra Human abilities from Lusamine, aside from keen senses, and perhaps abnormal physical strength for a 14 year old.
Has he said how much he hates outer space?
Notable Locations:
Ula'ula Island
Po Town
Malie City

Lilly Finn and Mary Finn
Tumblr media
• They are twins and daughters of Ruby
• Ruby was pregnant with them in her mid 30s
• Their dad left them when finding this out leaving Ruby a single mother and business owner
• Both of her daughters are blue just like Ruby, but their eyes aren’t hypnotic like their mother’s eyes.
• Lilly is very sporty and tomboyish in personality.
• Mary is very girly and feminine in personality.
• Mary is also slightly taller than Lilly which angers her because Mary teases her sometimes.
• BOTH are very curious kids and ask a LOT of questions, but they are genuinely caring. However, they are very stubborn and snarky (like their mother).
• Their voiceclaims are Bluey and Bingo from the kid show Bluey.
• In the main verse they are 5-8 years old in age when Ruby is 40-45 years old.

You know, tell undergrad, or even early grad, student me that I would be anything like I am now, and I would have thought you crazy.
I'm no longer human, both bodily and in terms of identification, same with male. I've got a kick ass girlfriend. I'm... actively happy. Holy shit that last one is so damn nice. College already felt like a relief compared to anything that came before. The fact I was THAT deep in the hole is WILD. No way in shit do I want to go back to that.
I guess says something about my tenacity, or maybe stubbornness, that was able to last that long. Thank fuck whatever changed me did, even if I am angry about having no say in that.

rewatching this damn show (again) and i am on unity day. i have thoughts:
one. you can see the first time clarke starts choosing violence over peace for the first time when she asks bellamy to follow her and finn and to bring guns (very similar to all the times when she was forced to choose violence over peace for the sake of future peace and precaution)
two. jasper and raven had potential lowkey like i can see them being different sides of one coin, and yet balance each other out, with raven and her rightful cynicism after finn's betrayal, and jasper's season one's hopefulness and him being a chemist and her being a mechanic and literally together building the first makeshift bullet together
three. raven possibly taking on interest of chemistry BECAUSE of jasper? she jest with what's-his-face in s2 about how chemists are a pain in mechanics' asses, but with jasper, i can see her genuinely WANTING to learn more, wanting to expand her knowledge because raven is always starved to know more, to do more, to expand her intelligence because in the end, she's one of the smartest characters on the show and i love that for her so bad
four. i wish octavia and lincoln were more of a slow burn. i want to see more of him training her and them no longer fight the connection that is between them. we went from him finally talking to her, her letting him escape, the KISS!!!!! to them just being a couple? she asks him when she sneaks up on him with a knife, "better?" which means he's been teaching her, honing her skills, training her foundation of a warrior so that she can be able to protect herself, and i so wish we got to see more of that. i want to see him getting close, and octavia and him are HAUNTINGLY aware of how close they are, and how they SHOULDN'T REALLY BE LIKE THIS, but they can't fight it. at least, i can see lincoln resisting at first, namely because of her people and how they tortured him and how the "grounders" are against the earthborns because of what they have done; but octavia fighting for it? octavia being the one who is just: this doesn't have to be wrong? why can't we just enjoy it? and then BOOM. idk, i love them, wish we got to see more of them developing.
five. i had more to say but i forgot because i got caught up in lincoln x octavia ( i miss you everyday lincoln ), but i'm sure i will come back with more <3

For lillie Lana Mallow Violet
send my muse three names and they'll tell you who they would kiss, date or fight
Tumblr media
"I... I don't think I could handle fighting Lana." The thought terrifies her, honestly. "So... I'd fight Violet, k-kiss Lana, and..."
She squeaks and hides her face in her hands. "And date Mallow."

⟢ - Notes on 𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐄 𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐈𝐗
Tumblr media
Youngest child of Lusamine Delacroix, currently age 11. Created at the Aether Paradise by cloning Lusamine's DNA.
Speaks in a quiet tone, often dipping into a whisper.
Will often go non-verbal and will prefer to communicate through sign language.
Extremely shy, but has her mother's ambition, it requires some encouragement for her to take initiative.
Ultra Human, with all of the same complications. Her skin is pale, with a subtle shimmer to it under the correct angle of sunlight, similar to her mother.
Capable of cloaking herself and becoming invisible, like a glass jellyfish.
Absolutely WILL hide herself like that, if she gets startled.
She has no Pokémon of her own currently.
In fact, Pokémon make her nervous, and Ultra Beasts scare her even more. Inherited this anxiety after she accidentally witnessed Type: Full maul an Aether scientist during the failure of the Beast Killer Project's first phase.
Currently an assistant to Professor Kukui, while also being tutored by several instructors at the Aether Foundation.
Nebby is in the bag.
Notable Locations:
Melemele Island
Aether Paradise

readding prometheus with some minor adjustments if anyone remembers writing with him before. after spending millennia bound to the mountain, prometheus finally breaks free from his chains. he flee mount olympus and sought refuge in the bustling anonymity of modern society.
he goes by theo, a shortened version of his actual name, and immere himself in the world of technology and innovation. he becomes a figure in the tech industry, finding a groundbreaking startup that is focused on renewable energy and advanced technology.
in his spare time, he loves exploring arts and sciences, and frequents art galleries and museums to marvel at humanity's evolving creativity, and he will often find a spot to sit at and people watch and marvel at how far the humans have come since the time he stole fire for them. but he also tries to remain anonymous in a world where anyone can hide, so that zeus and the gods have no inklings of his absence on the mountain.
