#musings: annabeth chase

Nico was here? Annabeth had been prepared to take on whatever monster or quest this London had to offer considering she woke up here not knowing where or how she had gotten here. But it was wonderful to see the boy here. A relief actually. She couldn't help but smile as she took him in. He looked healthy enough. Safe. Untouched by monsters. The Athena child sent him a small smile as she let out a relieved breath. "Di Angelo, it's good to see you."

PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS Season 1, 2023-

[the-boy-who-drank-the-stars]

I think it's really interesting how your godly parent determines how people perceive you in CHB. They ostracize and exclude Nico because he's a son of Hades. They worship and admire Percy for being a son of Poseidon. They trust Annabeth because she's a daughter of Athena.

But really, aren't they all just kids who deserve better?

hazel drawing her friends

she doesn't draw leo's face bc she's drawn that same face before and its very weird for her but she'll draw faraway shots of him steering the ship like an 18th century sea captain

she drew festus too, asleep but still frightening

piper's self conscious about being drawn but hazel loves her and loves how she looks and spends a lot of time trying to capture what makes piper so magnetic

she herself is kind of self conscious about drawing reyna or annabeth but she draws them in each other's clothes - reyna in jorts, annabeth in a toga and cape - and they both think its funny as hell

hazel draws reyna's dogs too. they pose for her and everything.

obviously arion is her top model

she draws frank all the time and it makes him blush. she'll draw frank drinking juice and caption it "frank drinking juice"

she drew frank in a world war one uniform for childhood crush reasons but felt like something was missing so she drew him in a plane that was about to crash and ended up getting super invested in the plane detail so its a very dramatic drawing. frank was like "uuhhh why am i getting shot down?" and she was like "clearly you don't understand art???"

she draws nico and gives him better hair bc she's nice

she also gives him a cool vintage car in some pictures. or a vespa.

she won't do a self-portrait

she draws percy destroying the glacier, like if the son of neptune cover was drawn by a non-professional artist.

she had one drawing of jason based on the day that she met him at camp jupiter. it was not a good day for her bc she was newly resurrected and very scared. it is a very good technical drawing of jason, and he looks powerful and strong, but he has intense eyes with no expression behind them and there is a very unnerving feeling to the drawing itself.

to piper and leo it reminds them a little of when jason had amnesia, but this is a drawing of him before that, which is not quite accurate to how hazel perceived him or to how he really was. its probably hazel's best work but it makes her and everyone a little uncomfortable.

Annabeth and Astarion

@bejcwcled

There was something about this man that pulled at the demigod's mind. It was like she had felt a creature like him once before. Maybe it was the mist. Maybe it was whatever had sent her and Percy here and was pulling at her stubborn mind. He was handsome for sure. Reminded her of Apollo with beautiful, Lucious golden locks and crystal eyes. Dark orbs ran laps. Her fingers itching to fight. But she'd play nice first. She'd get intel. And she'd decide if Nico or Percy or any in this godforsaken town was in trouble. "See any good coffee shops around here?"

[lucksbucks]

something something annabeth going out of her way to pay respects at her mothers temple and always trying to be the perfect daughter and not being saved and percy being out right rude to his father and still getting saved and how it mirrors how black women must go above and beyond only to get mistreated and how white men get to be rewarded for mediocrity something something

I wish they gave show Annabeth blonde hair and grey eyes. Just think about it. The only solid thing the book gave us about Athena kids are that they have blonde hair and grey eyes. How gorgeous would grey eyes and dark skin be? The contrast alone has a part of my brain going jsjejjeejekeke.

And the confidence a black girl would need to rock blonde hair? It could be a character arc for her. Plus it would make her canonical complaints of no one taking her seriously because she's blonde valid. A white girl complaining about that makes her seem vapid or naive. A black girl doing the same because people think she dyed her hair blonde for the attention instead of being born like that on top of the racism? It would be a valid, weighted complaint.

Just think about it.

Annabeth Chase had always been called a nerd. Sure, she was the daughter of Athena, but she liked having information She liked understanding humanity and the world through factual things. Her dark orbs brightened. There was something otherworldly and old about this man, but her eyes stayed focused on the peace. Still, her hand danced on the dagger in her pocket. "I enjoy anything in a museum. I will not bore you with a rant about it."

elijah studied the newest display in the museum with a slight smile on his face. it was a bit different from the other displays they had, this was more focused on the feeling that the pieces evoked rather than the artist or style they were. yes, it was a bit risky but the reviews so far had been fantastic so hopefully, they could do more exhibits like this in the future. "are you enjoying the new exhibit?"

[maraudersarecanon]

Annabeth hearing Luke’s confession, Annabeth seeing the Fates cut the string, Annabeth and her relationship with Luke and Thalia expanded more, this show is really giving her the attention she deserves

[rorimoon9597]

I'm rereading Titan's Curse, and I've realised that the only reason why Bianca and Nico were even safe from Thorn in the end was because of Percy.

He went to get them without Thalia, Annabelle and Grover's help. Then he was captured along with them, and it was the empathy link that he had with Grover that let the other three find Percy, Bianca and Nico.

Percy's stupid decision to go and get Bianca and Nico with no backup was probably the only thing that saved them that night.

[blueskiesandstarrynights]

I'm completely fascinated with the state of Percy and annabeth and their relationships with their godly parents now and in the future, because as the series progresses it's kinda flipped, with Percy and poseidon having one of the better godly parent and kid relationships, meanwhile annabeth gets progressively more bitter towards Athena, especially when she sends her on the suicide quest in moa

Interestingly enough, I don't think Athena denying them sanctuary this past ep will diminish annabeths opinion of her that much. She's spent years praying to her and believing in a system with the gods, that's not gonna go away after one situation. Don't get me wrong, I definitely think she's gonna be hurt/disappointed by this, but I also think she's gonna think she deserves it for getting involved in sending the head to olympus

[thedemigodsguide]

child of urania here! i'm a rogue demigod but i wanted to know how the urania cabin looks like!

Urania! Ooo, hoo, hoooo! That's an interesting one! You don't meet too many children of the muses! I guess that makes us cousins!

Anyways, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we don't actually have any finished cabins for the muses yet. I currently am staying in the Hermes cabin, but Lady Hestia has offered her cabin as an additional place for unclaimed kids or children whose parent hasn't gotten a cabin quite yet. I might end up moving there for a little bit!

Good news, though! Five of the nine muses' cabins are already under construction. I helped oversee some of the plans, along with Jason and Annabeth. Urania's is one of them, and it's definitely going to be cool!

Based on the designs I’ve seen, there’s going to be lots of really cool astronomy stuff!

The ceiling will be like a planetarium, with all the visible stars being projected in real time. And then you’ll be able to control it like a real planetarium, too! There’s going to be a lot of really nice shades of black and blue, with gold accents. It’s going to be really pretty! I’ll see if I can get a photo of the plans. Also, Leo’s building an astrolabe unique to your cabin!

And then, once it’s complete, I’ll formally invite you to come to camp! And you won’t have to stay all the time, but I think you would really enjoy it.

Hope to see you soon! Construction should be complete in a few weeks to about a month!

If you think about it, Percy and Annabeth are a perfect couple.

They're alike in all the ways that matter. They're both extremely loyal and protective of the people they care about.

They will both feel eaten alive with guilt if they think that they let someone down. Like when Percy failed to save his mom from the minotaur, or Annabeth couldn't save Thalia.

Both of them are good at becoming focused and resilient under hardship, so they don't lose their minds in situations that would break most people.

Percy isn't as dumb as he sometimes acts or is made out to be.

Percy's actually very resourceful. He just needs to put his mind to it more often. Percy has been shown to be able to work out things in a pinch that require intelligence and resourcefulness.

Annabeth won't initially appear to be as open-hearted as Percy, but she is if she's given the time to think things over and absorb the situation. She always sees that Percy is right to give 'different' people like Tyson a chance.

Annabeth is initially cautious and distrusting, but she's not closed off or closed minded.

My point is that Percy and Annabeth are actually a lot more alike than their usually playful squabbles let on. Annabeth is the most ideal romantic partner for Percy.

Percy is also the perfect sweetheart with women. He never makes unwanted romantic advances on anybody. He holds off and waits.

In fact, Percy usually doesn't push anyone to do something that they might not want to do.

Percy has a heart of gold.

“Holy cow. You will not believe what’s been going on.” - from Billy the Kid

"You'd be surprised what I can believe or have been through," Annabeth said flippantly though her body was warrior tight in that moment. Dark hair in her hands as she focused fully on the figure. The man looked rugged. In fact, he looked like he walked out of a western. But she didn't feel any monster or magic on him. Or mist. "Can I help you?"
