[glacierfront]

I WANT... 2 KNOW... ALL THE ANSWERS

WOW….

What is an aspect of your muse that you’ve wanted to explore the most? i like the concept of comparing julie’s self confidence versus her… lack of it? she’s sort of been working on it a little already, but she doesn’t really value her opinion over other peoples’, especially regarding her like… self worth. but at the same time she loves to joke about how good and skilled and kind and talented and just overall great she is… hmm.. i just think it’s neat ! also julie x touch, and julie in general just being a badass with powers

and i just really in general want to explore… um… julie, and, sharing things about herself. she doesn’t think she’s important enough to other people to share her opinions (because they dont matter!) but i posit that because characters care about her they want to know these things. but she doesn’t believe me

Name one idea for a plot you’ve had but never got around to writing. jeez i like never hide my ideas from anyone, i always just spit them out into the open ??? more recently i made a verse where julie learned about her water powers a lot earlier and went to the xmen school as a kid and in the future is an environmental activist with an emphasis on the water… she is the julie of my dreams who travels to tsunami and hurricane and flood prone areas (and fires, and droughts, and melting glaciers) to try and reduce human casualty… and weighing with the guilt of not being able to help everyone, and the anger of watching governments be like “why do we need to do anything when you’re here lol” and capitalists be like “lmao lets make water a sellable commodity”, and the stress of constantly overloading herself with marcus’ help. hmm. i like it

Are there any songs that remind you of your muse and/or get you in the mood to reply? not really ! i like solo piano stuff sometimes. hearing soundscapes can get me in the mood sometimes; i am particularly fond of running water and train tracks. if i listen to nanananananana by uhh, fallout boy ?? i think ?? then i immediately think of maes hughes. but that’s about it 

If you’re a multimuse or have more than one blog, is there a muse that you wish you used more? jesus fuck ALL OF THEM… i think i have very good writing but really only when im writing anyone but julie lmfao. i like that i can write different moods and different characters and feel like i do them justice; i like feeling like my words actually have a rhythm to them. and this is really only possible with like anyone but julie, so like. literally all of my other characters. but if i had to pick one, then probably link! because He Is My Son.

Is there a character you consistently have muse for? julie, 

Do you have any symbols/motifs/themes/etc that you’re currently trying to get across or plan to get across? right now i’m really into the themes of learning how to be a person, but i wouldn’t say i’m putting particular effort into getting them across. .. 

Do you have any arcs planned out or already in the works for your blog? my blog is generally very wibbly wobbly re: time, so i would say not particularly ! i would say maybe something i’m excited to think about is the au where she does not infact have dual powers, but gets her water powers ripped out of her when she like insults poseidon and gets her dream powers when she asks athena to fill the void?

 there is probably a lot of potential there… and sometimes i think about julie being asked, frantically, to do something by people who know she has water powers and her being like…… i can’t

Name one of your favorite tropes. character thinks they are making a joke but actually hit the nail on the head… found family… character tries and fails and suffers and tries again… 

What has influenced your writing and blog? my friends and their writing! i can name like at least three writing things that i’ve seen in my friends’ writing and have been like “interesting.. i will pepper that into my own writing starting immediately”… i havent read a lot of books lately but i am also very influenced by them. i think big influences are tess gerritsen’s books and cressida cowell’s books. and then also fanfictions influence me a lot because it’s basically all i read nowadays anyway and probably is half of why my writing doesn’t feel too hot right now lJFDLKF

If you’re an oc blog, did you have any characters in mind while creating your character? no ! 

What is a trope you want to subvert? i do not care enough about tropes to like… want to subvert any ? 

Is there a fact/detail about your muse that you think would surprise people if you told them about it? no i feel like julie is very predictable and easy to accept at face value. i find that the best thing for me to do is write stuff as if people already know it, and then i get to be delighted when they actually did not know it and show emotions because of it

Name a question you’ve always wanted to be asked about your muse. i don’t really have any ! in hindsight this was not a great meme for me to reblog because most of my answers are just “idk” … i think more than anything i want characters to ask questions about julie to julie ! let her sweat a little 

How has your muse changed since you first began writing them? 2012 julie was very edgy. i do not like her. she was also very ready to fight people all the time. nowadays her primary emotion is unsure, and, she is much tamer, and i think her sense of humor is less abrasive though it still has a little bit of teeth…

Take the opportunity to write a short ramble/drabble about something you want to write about. one of the biggest draws to me about writing poe is just the idea of interacting with rey and finn? and i think a lot of people see that too which is why i see it in a lot of fanfictions; rey and finn are missing a lot of experiences and context in terms of how… the resistance and generally people who aren’t assholes work? 

rey has grown up in a world where she scrounges for scrap only for the asshole at the counter to decide how much it’s worth (how much her life is worth) in terms of garbage food and finn from the get-go has been just another cog in the wheel, a disposable unit, no thoughts allowed, no opinions allowed unless they are the order’s… no fucking names

and poe like… i just like… poe who like… immediately is kind to these people… he gives finn a name, and they’ve known each other for like 30 minutes,,, and (in my heart) he reaches over not to take but to drop more food on rey’s plate,,, and he just…. trusts openly, like, these two people who… have not had a lot of trust placed upon them in the past, and while they dont have to trust him back, he would, you know, like them to???? i just like poe’s kindness. and. i like that he is kind in relation to these two people who have probably been starved for kindness in the past… and just… also, i love him??????

❤ + prophecies

yet another hc meme || always accepting

if we gonna do this I’m gonna bring up that hc thing on [ fate ] since that’s relevant.

mmkay okie dokie here we go. we gonna start this bad boy off by bringing up the fact Percy’s existence revolves around prophecies. his birth was fated by a prophecy ( he’s born from a promise on the Styx broken what kinda symbolic tragic bullshit ) which stated he either saves the world or kills it. for those of you aware of how Greek myth works you know that literally nothing else done would have made it someone else’s prophecy — from the get go it was his. which, unlike basically everyone else in Greek mythology, Percy accepts the prophecy and doesn’t try to avoid it ( which thank fuck that’s how everything always goes wrong ). so basically he was born with the sole purpose of that prophecy. thanks fates you’re the real mvps : )))

Percy has, canonically, been a part of seven prophecies. the first one being one he chooses in a way ( Percy accepts the quest and accepts the prophecy — a prophecy specially designed and given to him upon his choice ). the next three are originally Clarisse’s, Zoe’s, and Annabeth’s respectively. he just comes along for the ride and ends up a piece of the story. the fifth prophecy is the Great Prophecy™ which is basically the one that defines everything he is and everyone refused to tell him about it till the last second. thanks guys doing really well ( though it does make sense — no one was certain Percy would end up the prophecy kid and no one wants anyone trying to mess with fate / change their destiny rip ). so far basically four years of warfare where his life is in the hands of the fates and their prophetic bullshit. after the first Great Prophecy Percy’s entirely done with the whole thing.

so, of course, there’s gotta be another prophecy ( the Great Prophecy 2.0 ) that he gets dragged into. all cause he fulfilled the first one. someone has seriously got it out for him… this one was told right after the Titan War so I’m counting it as #6 but some immortal asshole decides that he has to save the world again and he runs into all kinds of really horrible shit doing so. prophecy #7 technically gets fulfilled before six but we also don’t get a full prophecy !!! all we get is something Ella recites about the son of Neptune drowning ( oh dear we get foreshadowing ) which I count as more then Mars’ spiel before the quest.

so as you can see literally his whole life and all the bullshit that has happened to him is due to prophecies. makes for a really tragic tale when you think to general Greek myth since, more often then not, its a prophecy that is a heroes downfall. I would say a quest prophecy ??? is not on the scale of those prophecies that speak of greater tragedies ( think the Trojan war or Oedipus — both are not prophecies the person has accepted but were made about them anyway. that’s the kinda stuff that leads to ones undoing ). which brings up the Big Question™ about what, exactly, is going to happen to Percy later down the road. being the subject of two prophecies like that is NOT something anyone has exactly done before and not had some tragic ending. Percy’s accepted he’s not going to live long but most of that fault resides on the prophecies spoken like this ( the rest on the fact Poseidon broke a promise on the Styx for his birth, which is also a fault of the prophecy — that the blowout from that rides on his shoulders and he will pay for Poseidon’s mistakes. again, kill me ).

long story short he doesn’t like them.

♡ + powers

yet another hc meme || accepting

going to try and keep this as short as possible.

lmao good question nonnie. for this I’m actually going to mooch off my citta app since I have all his powers written out and stuff there !!! mooched from the wiki a bit this topic is rather broad and pretty well shows how generally overpowered Percy is, but this is a good question just to give people an idea since I’m sure a good portion of my followers don’t quite know who Percy is / how ridiculously op he is. to quote myself:

ABILITIES YOUR CHARACTER POSSESSES: Referred to as one of the most powerful demigods to date, Percy holds a wide breadth of powers related to his lineage, as his father is one of the Big Three…

why is this you may ask? well, it seems Rick Riordan ( referred to in the fandom as “rr” or “uncle rick” ) just knowns no chill and Percy just gets more and more powerful as the books go by. the general explanation and argument is that Percy has “always” had these powers and it just learning more and more as he goes. which, in part, does make sense. a lot of our understanding of his powers we have found through him stumbling across them himself. the way I explain this on his blog, and you will see pop up now and again, is that his powers ( the water related ones at least ) stem from one general ability since it’s not the most addressed topic in canon outside “he gets them from his dad.” in this blogs canon you need to almost imagine that he’s talking to it, asking. reading through the books ??? thats how I see it. Percy asks the water to do something and it does. “commands” could certainly be one way to say it as well, seeing as he is its “prince” of a sort ( which is also addressed in canon ). his father’s domain canonically listens to him due to his lineage. therefore, I don’t think this is to far off the mark.

so onto actual powers — Percy canonically has control over anything water based. when you look on this, think on this, you can start to see how ridiculous this is. almost everything on this planet is water based. no matter where you are there is water ( in the air, the water table, he can canonically create his own water, etc. ). then not only does he have a semblance of control over these things, but he gains a lot of benefits with them. one example is that while immersed in water he heals over a period of time length of which depends on the injury.

WATER-INDUCED ABILITIES: When in contact with or in the presence of water, Percy gains a disproportionate amount of superhuman clarity, strength, speed, agility, and endurance equaling a god and he has shown to be more powerful than Ares while in this state. However, this only lasts for a limited amount of time unless he is completely submerged in water. He also heals himself from any wound and most poisons when he comes into contact with water, the amount of water and time needed for the healing being proportionate to the severity of the wound.

HYDROKINESIS: With the power of the sea within him, Percy can control every form and great volumes of water, being even able to summon and heal his wounds and cure himself of most poisons with it. Percy can control water almost omnipotently. He can control it in order to make it explode, or use it to grab something, etc.

GENERAL HYDROKINESIS: He can create water from petrified seashells, as well as being able to create water with his own energy and summoning the “force of the ocean” to his will, as long as he concentrates hard enough. He can also harden water into an almost solid shape.

HYDROGENESIS: Percy can create water from his own power, though it takes much of his energy for him to do so. He uses this skill while creating his own personal hurricanes.

HEALING FACTOR: Since he is the son of Poseidon he can heal most wounds and cure most poisons when in contact with water.

WATER PROPULSION: He can control the water around him to propel himself through water. Percy can shoot water, not only from being in water, but he can blast the own water he creates.

UNDERWATER BREATHING: Percy can breathe underwater and diffuse the oxygen in the water to create oxygen bubbles that allow his non-hydrokinetic friends to breathe underwater.

WATER IMMUNITY: Percy can fall from great heights into water, and is unaffected by any amount of water pressure. He does not get wet if submerged in water, unless he wants to. Percy can dry items underwater (as long as he holds onto it), such as a lighter.

WATER SOLIDIFICATION: Percy can harden water into an almost solid shape. He can use this power to walk on water, by increasing the surface tension of the water to the point where it is solid enough for him to stand on, and water constructs. So far, he has demonstrated creating a strong water shield and on two instances he hardened the water into giant hands that followed and imitated the movements of his own hands.

and ignoring the water thing, his father is known as “the earthshaker.” in a historical sense, Greece is on a series of fault lines that run throughout the Mediterranean. a lot of seismic activity was through to have come from the sea itself, and the following seismic activity has repercussions along the coastlines. then there is the whole storm thing associated with the sea. Zeus may be god of the sky but within Greek mythos the water and everything around it belonged to the sea god. literally Poseidon is one of, if not the most, powerful gods in Greek mythos. a lot of who Poseidon is got passed onto Percy for no reason I can figure out other then he was the protag for five books and important for another five. he canonically again has some geokinesis / atmokinesis because of this. so yet again he grows more op. throw him anywhere you want and he is not powerless. you see where this is going ???

ATMOKINESIS: Percy can summon hurricanes and other types of storms, but the extent to which he can control them is as of yet unknown. Percy’s hurricanes have been shown to be powerful enough to douse the fires on Hyperion’s body, leaving the powerful Titan vulnerable to attack. By events later shown he is able to sustain the storm with less effort than his first use of the skill against the Titan Hyperion, although it still drains him over time.

ELECTROKINESIS (LIMITED): Percy used this skill unintentionally on one occasion, while creating his own miniature hurricane to fight Hyperion. Sparks of lightning appeared as his hurricane increased in power. His control of this ability, however, is far less than that of a child of Zeus and appears to be a limited side effect of his storms.

AEROKINESIS (LIMITED): Percy can summon strong winds, which he could use to create storms such as hurricanes and typhoons.

GEOKINESIS: Percy can generate earthquakes and (consequently) cause volcanic eruptions, but his control of this technique is less than that of a child of Hades.

looking on all of this you might go “well kat, thats a lot but thats all pretty simple. I don’t quite see where you’re going with this.” and friends let me tell you it gets better. rr really does get into the more technical pieces of this at times. Percy canonically bloodbends. think of the smaller things ( one example is poisons, they are water based ) and he has some control over it. he has even gone as far to pull water from plants / etc. then there was that whole debacle with the volcano which shows just how integrated his is into his fathers domain. heat / fire / etc. does not stand up to the sheer cold power of the ocean — lava only goes as far as the edge of the sea. it’s literally ridiculous. these are just a few pieces touched on in canon that really make you think on the greater scope of what Percy can do. ( other little things — talk to equines / water creatures, perfect bearings at sea, he possesses an innate awareness of any type of water vessel and can telekinetically operate it….. of a sort ).

CRYOKINESIS: Percy can use cryokinesis to a small degree. He is able to use the ice and snow around him to make an icy hurricane, as he does during the battle in Alaska. He can also manipulate frozen or icy water around him.

HEAT RESISTANCE: Percy has a far higher than normal resistance to heat and burns, similar to that of a Cyclops, due to his father’s oceanic nature. He was able to survive being engulfed by lava thrown by the telekhines, though it began to get more painful the longer he was in contact with it, as well not being killed by the super-heated steam from the eruption of Mount Saint Helens.

TOXIKINESIS (LIMITED): Percy can control and manipulate poisons. This is limited, though, as poison is only part water. The full extent of this power is unknown although he is able to control it well enough, when angry, to the point of terrifying others. Percy himself is scared of this power

Percy canonically is described as a “demon” when fighting / using his powers. hell, his name means “to destroy.” he took out a whole Roman legion single handed and caused general mass issue and thats all without the Curse of Achilles ( which he had for the fight against the Titans in the Battle of Manhattan which threw him even more out of proportion power wise ). you could say part of is the demigod thing ( ADHD = supernatural alertness and keen senses that keep him ready for, and alive, in battle. aka superhuman battle reflexes ) or the general enhanced physical condition of demigods ( faster, stronger, more agile and durable then a mortal ) but when it comes down to it a lot of blame I think can be blamed on who his father is. Percy is as he is because of the general ability to command his fathers domain. 

either way kid is still overpowered as all hell, especially since what we know he can do keeps on growing as each new book comes out… I hope this all makes sense and explains some stuff / my own thoughts cause I feel like this turned into a lecture.
