hot take (maybe)

i know many of you think percy is the gossip guy, but in the books he usually doesn’t really care about what’s going on in other people’s lives that much. he cares about his friends obviously, but he doesn’t ever give off the vibes of being someone who would enjoy gossip and drama at all. i feel like he’s the “i didn’t ask” guy. like tell me this isn’t how it would go

annabeth: oh good you’re home! how were the guys?

percy: good. i tried to teach frank to skateboard. it… it didn’t go very well. that guy is strong as fuck but he has terrible balance!

annabeth: i could have told you that. is anything new with any of them?

percy: i don’t know. not really? although when we were watching the game, chris mentioned him and clarisse broke up. it was right before halftime when-

annabeth: WHAT?? WHY DID THEY BREAK UP??

percy: uhh, i don’t know

annabeth: okay well when did they break up?

percy: hm, i don’t know

annabeth: what do you mean you don’t know?? did he not want to talk about it??

percy: maybe. i don’t know. i didn’t ask

annabeth: you- you didn’t ask??

percy:

annabeth: this is why i need leo to be at these things!

Roman cavalryman Marc Márquez riding his evil horse Kidney Bean with historically accurate lack of stirrups, ca. 125 AD (black and white) and Marc Márquez riding his destroyed Ducati with no foot peg, ca. 2025 AD (colorized)

LITERALLYYYY sitting in my seat at cota watching him ride that thing around sans footpeg and you could kinda see how strongly he was clenching w his thighs and core to stay on the bike when he would hit the corners and i DID have the thought like oh my god. he’d be a genuine terrorist in horse girl times. and i thought of kidney bean !!!!!

Ppl saying Dior is too Pretty to be a Daughter of Ares and she should have been cast as a Daughter of Aphrodite makes me laugh cause like, of All the Gods Aphrodite could have, and that's literally All of Them, who did she Choose to fuck behind her husband's back?

Oh that's Right. ARES.

He may be a Chud but Ares, and by extension, his children, being ridiculously pretty is very much in keeping with the Classical Lore surrounding the God of War.

Had a nightmare last night (unrelated) and was plagued by this thought once again at 4am

Do we think Silena was familiar with the plot of the Iliad when she donned Clarisse’s armor and went into battle? Surely Chiron would have made sure they knew the story. And if so- then a part of Silena must have known she was going to die the moment she decided to go in Clarisse’s stead.

Idk what’s worse- Silena copying Patroclus, or Silena coming up with the idea on her own.

I've started playing Potion Permit, and so far it's one of my favorite games I've messed around with, but the most big brained move the devs made was giving you a dog on day 1, and then making that dog able to track NPCs and lead you directly to them no matter where they are in the town.

[tending-the-hearth]

god i'm thinking about how "the stolen chariot" takes place post-"titan's curse" and how that's a turning point for percy and clarisse's relationship, and how clarisse probably saw straight through percy's facade and saw exactly how he was treated during that time at camp and how sad and lonely he probably was because grover was tripping over himself around the hunters and chiron was so focused on thalia and annabeth was gone

and that leads me into thinking about the head counselors again and how maybe, in their own ways, they gave percy little things to show their support. moments of help, little gifts.

silena sitting in the pegasus stables with percy, holding onto his arm and being a big sister presence to him. not talking, just being there for him, giving him some semblence of stability

beckendorf dragging percy off to test new weapons he made in the arena, turning it into a game that had a smile spreading over percy's face for the first time in days

travis and connor sneaking coke and candy into camp for their honorary brother, leaving it in the poseidon cabin with little cards that had the corniest jokes written on them

clarisse spars with percy more, pulling him to the arena when she sees the stormy look in his eyes, when he can't think about anything else but how frustrated he is

lee pulls percy into the medical tent to test his healing abilities with water, because it's been an obsession for the apollo cabin since percy arrived, and he can't help but make percy laugh with his eagerness

castor and pollux convince their father to let up on percy, just a little bit, to let him have a looser curfew, letting him sit out by the lake for as long as he needs, sometimes sitting with him in the quiet

katie leaving little plants in the poseidon cabin, little succulents and flowers that are easy to care for, something small that makes percy's eyes light up every time he gets a new one, and he lines the windows of the cabin with them

malcolm, bless him, is so aware of his sister and percy's crushes on each other, and takes it upon himself to make sure that his sister's best friend doesn't waste away, and he's the one who makes sure percy eats and sleeps and stays healthy.

and clarisse will deny it until the day she dies, but percy knows that she's the one setting everything up. it was her suggestion, though the other counselors know they'll get fried if they say anything.

and he doesn't say anything, not until after "the stolen chariot", when he and clarisse are sitting down for a burger, and he brings it up quietly. and clarisse just huffs and rolls her eyes, and percy's heart warms so much at the fact that, despite the winter being the worst one of his life, he was surrounded by people who loved him and supported him.

(annabeth definitely gives hugs to all the head counselors when malcolm tells her, because they kept her seaweed brain going)

[frozenrose20]

In the TV show we never see anything about Chris leaving camp so imagine it's season 2 and Percy is trying to figure out what to do with Tyson. He hasn't been claimed yet so as far as Percy knows he can't stay at the cabin 3 so he walks to cabin 11 expecting Chris as the head counselor. His one camp friend other than Annabeth and Grover that he thinks he can rely on to take his side. Only to get to cabin 11 and Chris isn't there. It's the stoll's who percy doesn't dislike but they aren't Chris. To add to the pain they have to say no. Not because they are against Tyson or dislike the fact that he's a monster but because their cabin is at capacity and people already dislike their cabin because of Luke, and Chris so if they had a monster their cabin they would be hated even more. Then imagine season 4 when Percy follows Clarisse down the stairs to the basement to see one of his first Camp friends who is an absolute mess clearly insane screaming about the son of Poseidon and how he is a monster. how Percy will see Clarisse who he assumed would betray him in season 1 comforting and being kind to the kid who did betray him.
