Could they be any more Percabeth?

No, they couldn't.

Annabeth “I’m going to make sure we both get to adulthood and have a chance to settle down—hopefully after having a lot of fun while we’re in college” Chase and Percy “I’d decided to hug it out with old age because any future that had us in it was a future I wanted to live through” Jackson, (my beloved two) really are soulmates <3

"annabeth wouldn't take percy's last name" fun alternative. they both hyphenate. annabeth chase-jackson and percy jackson-chase my beloveds

Hi 👋👋

I dont typically send asks, and especially not without being anon. I am a mostly silent participant on tumblr and I have been for years. But I have to say something

It is so refreshing seeing big pro pjo posters able to criticize Riordan. I am not sure if this is just in my little corner of tumblr and maybe other people can tell me if it is the same for them but as far as I can see, you and lilislegacy are the big pjo posters on here. Is that just my dash? But I feel like mostly everyone in the tumblr fandom knows you guys, though I have known about you for longer. And when the book came out and I saw all the issues I fully expected everyone, especially you guys, throwing your full support behind the book and Riordan. So I cant tell you how happy I am that you are calling him out. The post you made today about not understanding why he is making Percy dumb again is so true! It’s not ok because self deprecation shouldnt be glorified. When he wrote Percy has a powerful hero, nobody was upset about it. Adult readers loved how much he had grown and kid readers looked up to him and found it exciting. In the last PJO book and in all Heroes of Olympus Riordan made Percy strong and heroic in addition to kind and funny, which made people happy. It made kids want to be like that. But now these kids are reading about him being so mean to himself. This is not okay! This should not be the example! Kids should not be reading that it’s ok for your friends and loved ones to treat you like an idiot. Riordan should be continuing to write about Percy growing up and maturing and becoming a good man who is content with who he is, not becoming more immature and more self deprecating and treated worse by his friends.

Sorry, I didnt mean to go off. But I just think its refreshing and brave how you are calling him out, no matter how much you have praised him and his books in the past. This fandom is dangerously loyal to him, and it quickly can become toxic and problematic when no one can criticize the author himself. So thank you for what you are doing. I admire it a lot and I hope you keep it up to some extent because we need it so bad

@lilislegacy if you want to add to this, feel free <3

Thank you so much for reaching out, and for being so kind! I hold the series in such high regard, so critiquing it makes me so nervous, especially since my blog is fairly well-known throughout the fandom. I really do love the series and I stand by the fact that there is so much good to come from the recent books, but with that comes some not-so-good. The consistent mockery of Percy's intelligence, the satirical characterization of Percy and Annabeth, and the seeming erasure of certain character and story arcs in the recent books are disappointing, and I enjoy having the space to express my opinion. While I have such love the series, I am open to having respectful discourse about Rick's recent writing choices, and I will engage in more in due time. Thank you again for your kind words and support!

The Chalice of the Gods really said the gods suck and Luke might have had a point and I love it for it

[millspyxis]

i cant stop thinking about that scene in the chalice of the gods when athena sent ganymede to the kitchen so he could get the chalice from percy, and as he left, zeus was like "i do love watching him walk away..."

LIKE SIR YOU CANT JUST SAY THAT...

—the chalice of the gods

[iwannakisskissyoureyesagain]

now i need another chb chronicles except it’s just the ghost stories they tell at the campfire that is apparently a camp tradition. percy and annabeth come back to visit as summer-exclusive counselors, or maybe just to see their friends. nico summons skeletons to scare the other campers. chiron tells some horrific greek myth bc even though he can’t come up with his own, new story, he’s lived for a millennia and saw the gods do some foul things. please rick you can’t just drop this casually in tcotg and do nothing about it

[shadowhandss60]

Can you post any sweet percabeth moments? I need something to hold me over until i get my copy!

I got you 🫡

There are so many, had me giggling and kicking my feet fr. 🖤 I tried to post the least spoiler-y ones

[feelingtheaster99]

I feel like the show is really playing into what Percy talks about in The Chalice of the Gods—the fact that, despite being all-powerful and living for millennia, the gods are the LEAST well-adjusted and healthy emoting beings he’s ever met
