Idk if it’s just me but it lowkey pisses me off when people use they/them for Alex Fierro

Like she specifically states that she doesn’t use they/them. In the book. Upfront and simple. Magnus asks and she gives him a clear and detailed answer. Alex uses she/her and he/him. She/her when she identifies as female and he/him when he identifies as male. This is said multiple times.

When referring to her in a post or fic or whatever, y’all have two very clear choices that are laid out for you on a silver platter BY ALEX IN THE BOOKS

I was reading Magnus Chase ship of the Dead and MAN I was not expecting that from a Riordan book.

Magnus one morning at breakfast with Floor 19 after beating Loki at the end of the third book and taking a lot of time to process through it: “So you’re basically saying that Loki decided to start Ragnarök on a ship named Naglfar and DIDN’T anticipate that he would Not-Go-Far???”

Alex, between bites of muffin: “Shoulda named it Yesglfar instead.”

Alex wanted Magnus to come to Pottery 101 in Valhalla, I repeat, Alex wanted to do pottery together with Magnus!!

Finished this literally MONTHS ago... Idk why I procrastinate on posting things now lol. Anyways this is a redraw of Alex Fierro I initially started over four years ago.

Side-by-sides are below the cut! It's nice to see that I have in fact improved over the years :)

According to the logic in Magnus Chase and The Ship of the Dead, combining tastes of martial/marching band music and Japanese anime music equals Duran Duran

Oh this isn’t funny. At the beginning of the ship of the dead, Percy mentions Jason to Magnus and Alex. He thought Jason was still alive then. And at the end of the book, Annabeth calls Magnus and it’s around when she and Percy found out that he died.

oh I’m gonna sob

So, I’ve been re-reading the Magnus Chase series. I haven’t read them since 2021, so I had forgotten almost everything. I read the first book, and just finished the second one. Or so I thought. Because when I started it, I felt like a lot of context was missing. Alex didn’t get a proper introduction. All these events were referenced that didn’t happen in the first book. But I assumed they had just happened in between both books. Until about page 400. Right at the end. That’s when Thor holding his hammer is referenced. “Wait, why does Thor have his hammer back? And for a book called The Hammer of Thor, there certainly wasn’t a lot of searching for his hammer…” I felt a growing sense of dread. That’s when I checked the cover. Turns out I was reading The Ship of the Dead 🤦🏼‍♀️

I grabbed the second book on the pile and never thought to check the title! And somehow, throughout 400 pages, I didn’t fucking notice!!! Oh my fucking god. I feel so stupid right now. I’m going to take a quick break before actually reading Hammer of Thor for my sanity.
